Chapter 6: The Enigmatic Woman

Qiu Zhenping began to think that the person who could kill the tiger must be like Wu Song in "Water Margin", who should be a tall man with a tall cow and a big horse, so after she met the two people Yu Fang found for her. Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info feel that they have an unreliable feeling: they are a pair of typical positive and negative matching: the age is about forty or fifty years old, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin; the tall one is called Gou Xi, the back is a little arched, the face is thin and straight, when speaking, he always likes to tilt his head, and look at others obliquely with a pair of small eyes, as if the other party will move rough in the next moment, and he is ready to run away at any time, that kind of look; the short one is called Gou Lin, who is short and fat, with a flat head and short face, and a sloppy appearance. His method of getting rid of snot is very special - he holds his thumb to the side of his nose and exhales with bated breath, and the snot splashes everywhere, and it is also dripping freely. Probably because of the constant compressions, the tip of his nose was always big and red.

Their joint place is not in Yu Fang's office, let alone Yu Fang's house, but in the car in the square in front of Yu Fang's company.

After some haggling. They negotiated, and Yu Fang first paid them a deposit of 10,000 yuan per person. After they had killed and handed over the tiger to them, they were to be paid another fifty thousand each, and two double-barreled three-shot shotguns and twenty rounds of ammunition were given to them as a free gift. Other hunting items are to be purchased by them without additional funds.

Yu Fang handed them 20,000 yuan in the car, then opened the trunk and took out two rolls of bamboo mats for them. Inside the bamboo mat is a shotgun.

Yu Fang noticed a woman wearing a mask on the side of the guardrail not far away, looking over from time to time. He asked, "Who is that woman, and is she with you?"

"It's my sister, it's a bitter sister!" replied Gou Xi.

"It's not his sister, it's his wife!" Gou Lin corrected Gou Xi. Gou Xi smiled and didn't refute.

"I don't think I knew her, and I can't remember seeing her there. Yu Fang said.

"She's a cleaner at a drug rehab facility, and you may have seen her when you were watching your kids. Gou Xi said.

"Oh-" Yu Fang replied speciously. He said: "This matter must be kept secret, if there is the slightest rumor leaking, we will not be able to eat and walk around."

"Don't worry, don't worry, we'll be a god without knowing it. Gou Xi said.

After saying goodbye to Yu Fang, Gou Xi stuffed the money into Kumei's hand, saw that Kumei's face seemed to have tears, and asked, "Kumei, what's the matter with you...... Crying again?"

"Nothing?!Eyed by falling leaves, rubbed!"

Bitter sister is really bitter sister, they have lived together for more than ten years. She is like this, silent in front of people, and often crying after people, as if there is endless pain, sad sadness. Even if he asked her, he was all evasive, and refused to tell the truth, what could he do? He could only be suspicious of his beliefs and pretend to be deaf and dumb, so that she could grieve his own sorrow.

"Lao Xi, now that we have money, we can also go there for the scenery!" Gou Lin touched Gou Xi with his arm and said.

"How much money do you have now?" Gou Xi scolded him, "Let's go buy some things for the mountains first, otherwise we won't be able to buy them all as soon as they disperse." โ€

Back at home, Gou Xi and Gou Lin dismantled the shotgun inside the bamboo mat. It is a No. 12 three-shot double-barreled shotgun, which is a real Tiger Head brand shotgun. The jet-black barrel and mahogany butt are heavy in the hand, giving people a texture.

Owning a good shotgun is the wish of all hunters. They also wanted to get this for a long time, but there was no way to get it. Now I finally have a decent guy. Gou Xi held it in his hand and touched it again and again, his joy indescribable.

That night, Gou Lin had dinner at Gou Xi's house, and after dinner, the two discussed entering the mountain while drinking tea.

Ku Mei is a person who loves cleanliness, seeing Gou Lin spraying snot with his thumb on his nose, after spraying, he wiped his palms with each other and continued to serve tea and drink tea. Feeling uncomfortable, he moved his stool behind Gou Xi, afraid that Gou Lin's snot would leak on his body.

"Bitter sister, you have been together for so many years, when will you give birth to a big fat boy for our old Xi?" Gou Lin said with a smile.

"Also say that others, if you don't get your daughter-in-law back quickly, if you drag it out, you really have to marry again in the next generation" After speaking, Ku Mei felt that this was too straightforward, for fear of causing Gou Lin to be unhappy. Unexpectedly, Gou Lin didn't care, and said with a smile: "It's all this age, what can I do if I don't miss it." Unless you can also learn a trick from Lao Xi, you can't pick up a girl and come back. โ€

Gou Xi knocked some Gou Lin's head with his hand and said, "You decay just can't pee well." Is that what we call picking? That's called fate, it's called fate, we have a fate to meet thousands of miles away, you know?"

Gou Xi rarely swears, but at this time, he said a vulgar and vivid foul word, which really made the bitter girl laugh. Gou Xi usually rarely sees the bitter sister really laugh. It's so cute to see her pursed lips and want to smile without smiling.

Gou Lin laughed and went back. Ku Mei asked, "Brother Xi, when are you going to enter the mountain?"

"I'm going to send you to work at the drug rehabilitation center tomorrow, the day after tomorrow. Gou Xi said wistfully: "I wish I could get that big guy as soon as possible, and when we get paid, we will be considered rich, and I will build you a big house." โ€

"Brother Xi, I don't want to go to work in a drug rehabilitation center, I want to go into the mountains with you. โ€

Bitter sister's words surprised Gou Xi very much. She begged him repeatedly to let her go to work in a drug rehabilitation center, but she didn't tell him why at the time, and now she has been gone for less than a year, and she says she can't go, which makes him unable to figure it out. Although he didn't want to ask her why, he couldn't let her go back on her word like a child.

"Why?" he asked.

"Nothing, I'm just a little worried about you, you. โ€

"Brother is not the first day to enter the mountain, there are no wild things I haven't seen, what is there to worry about," Gou Xi listened, felt a fever in his heart, and said: "You should go back to the drug rehabilitation center tomorrow, it is very hard to enter the mountain, and there are dangers, just have my brother go, you can rest assured, my brother will definitely get that big guy and earn you that money, and at that time, you don't need to go to work in the drug rehabilitation center, just do housework at home." โ€

"Brother, just let the bitter sister go with you, I really want to go!" the bitter sister begged.

In fact, he didn't want her to go to the drug rehabilitation center for a long time, but she had to go by herself, and he couldn't help it, and now he just pushed the boat: "As long as you think about it, what you have to do, my brother can beat you that time"

Ku Mei smiled and said, "Then brother, you will go to the drug rehabilitation center tomorrow to negotiate, and I won't go." โ€

"Listen to the girl. โ€

Ku Mei said: "Brother, you took a bath, take a break early, I'll go get you water." โ€

"Bitter sister, don't go, my brother has something to say to you. "Gou Xi may have drunk wine at dinner to strengthen his courage. Maybe it was Gou Lin's joke just now that gave him a little more in his heart. He decided to find out his thoughts to the bitter sister tonight.

Probably no one will believe that they have lived together for more than ten years, living in the same house and eating on the same stove. But they haven't been a real couple for a day. He lived with her, was close at hand, and he had a secret affection for her. It is false to say that there is no impulse, unless he is not a normal man.

On the contrary, if he had to succeed on impulse, they would have been a veritable husband and wife. To be exact, Gou Xi is not a noble man, but why is he in more than ten years, six or seven thousand days and nights. He couldn't do anything about the woman he had always dreamed ofโ€”because she had a kind, ice-crystal-fragile heart beneath her tough exterior.

Seventeen years ago, he found her while hunting in the forest, and she was wounded and dying. It was he who carried her back and healed her wounds. At that time, he also wanted to send her home, but when he asked her what her name was and where her home was, she just shook her head and didn't say anything, but she cried day and night, and she couldn't persuade her.

At first, he thought that she had broken her brain, or that she had been stimulated too strongly, causing her memory to be confused and unable to speak. didn't press her, and wanted to wait for him to recover slowly before asking. But then I found out that she was still the same, and when she asked about her past, she always shook her head and always shed tears. I don't know if I can't remember clearly or I won't say it.

Later, Gou Xi found out that Kumei was a very capable woman, and after her illness later, she began to work for his family. Not only did he tidy up his house in an orderly manner, but he was also a good hand at farm work.

Gou Xi has been hunting with his father since he was a child, and hunting is his only interest and his only means of livelihood. He is the kind of person who likes to use his brain and does not like his hands, and what he hates most is to do farm work. Therefore, after the death of his parents, he subleased the few acres of land he had obtained from the package to others for planting. The vegetable soil in front of the door and behind the house is also grassy, and it is a mess. After Kumei arrived at his house, these idle vegetable soil became green and became endless dishes on the table. She also took some of the land she rented to others and returned it to grow it herself. No matter how rough and tiring the work is, she never lets Gou Xi get his hands dirty, and even the work that should be done by a man, such as plowing and raking the fields, she also covers everything.

Everyone in the village said that Gou Xi was blessed and picked up such a good daughter-in-law for nothing. The people in the village see Kumei's external ability, but the benefits at home are only something he can experience. The bitter sister is not only diligent and capable, but also kind-hearted, careful and considerate. Let this originally casual and simple man enjoy the warmth and happiness that he has never had.

He has thought countless times, not to mention being his daughter-in-law, just like this, he can come back every day to see her and feel her warmth, and he is also content. This was the main reason why he didn't dare to be rude to her, he was afraid that if he disobeyed her wishes, she would leave him. Because he has fallen in love with her deeply, and he can't love herself.

"Bitter sister, we've been together for so many years, brother...... Brother said something from his heart, brother has you in his heart. Brother, you also know, brother doesn't know how to speak. What does brother mean...... If you have a good match, you tell my brother, and my brother will marry you off beautifully...... Brother, brother, just don't spend ...... like this"

When Gou Xi talked about emotion, he whimpered. Hearing this, the bitter sister hooked her head, and tears dripped down like pearls with broken threads: "Brother Xi, the bitter sister's heart is not made of stone." Brother's kindness to the bitter sister is remembered in his eyes and in his heart. Kumei is a person who has died once, if it weren't for her brother, Kumei would have lost her body in the wilderness and died in Huangquan. Everything Kumei has done over the years is just to repay Brother Xi, otherwise Kumei would have ended her life a hundred years ago...... Now the bitter sister will give her brother a word: The bitter sister has no one else, and the bitter sister has only you in her heart. As long as you don't dislike Brother Xi, Kumei is a member of your family in life, and death is a ghost in your family...... Kumei can't be with you now, because she has a hurdle in her heart that can't get over......"

These words of the bitter sister made Gou Xi believe in his previous speculation even more, he said: "It's not good for my brother, my brother cares about you too little, you tell my brother, what knot is in your heart, my brother will definitely help you untie it." Brother, guess you must have been killed by the enemy before. Don't be afraid, tell the enemy brother, and brother will avenge you and bring his head to you!"

Kumei still shook her head painfully and said, "Yes...... No, one day, Kumei will tell my brother everything!"
