The winding and twisting mountain road from Peach Blossom Valley to Southwest Fanbang is very difficult, but a group of lunatics raced this road as a flat river one by one for the sake of betting.
An Shiliu, An Shiqi and the others tried their best to win against Hua Yan, and they even ate dry food on horseback, almost day and night. During this most difficult part of the road, they separated piecemeal, and the fastest they only walked for three days and three nights.
After the fourth day, I came to the Wolong Gorge ten miles away.
An Shiliu calculated that he had already run more than a thousand miles. He kept going along the way, but he never saw Huayan chasing him. The person following him was An Shiqi, and the rest followed suit one after another. , were all behind him, so he felt that he really won.
In front of him was a hunter's house. He had eaten all the dry food on his body, and he was exhausted. He thought he was waiting here for Huayan and the people behind him to heal.
So, he led his horse to the gate of the Orion's house. The Orion's house had only three thatched cottages surrounded by fences. With a pig, some chickens, ducks and geese.
He thought that it would be best to give a piece of silver and let the owner of the hunter kill a chicken for dinner.
So he yelled inside, "Is anyone there?"
He yelled twice, the door of the inner room finally opened, and a woman in a light blue dress came out. She seemed to be woken up by An Shiliu, and she walked out of the door with a little sleepiness, Look at the gate of the fence.
When she saw it, she was immediately happy.
Seeing her, An Shiliu's already dark face turned even darker. He stared at her speechlessly for a while, wondering if she flew in front of him with wings.
what the hell is going on
Huayan leaned against the door frame, looked at An Shiliu's black face with a funny face, and said lazily, "Sixteen, you lost. When I get married, don't forget to send a few boxes of dowry for makeup."
An Shiliu was speechless for a while, stomped his feet, and asked bitterly, "Have you grown a pair of wings?"
Hua Yan looked at him with a smug smile, "I want to know how I came in front of you."
An Shiliu snorted, and said unconvinced, "You're right behind me, I'm on my way day and night, there's no way you can come in front of me, what the hell."
Huayan Dale said to him, "From Peach Blossom Valley to here, you think there is only one way to go, but in fact, there is another way to go. From Peach Blossom Valley to Yandang Mountain, there is a shortcut of 100 miles. I walked a hundred miles less than you, so naturally I ran ahead of you."
An Shiliu slapped his forehead when he heard the words, full of regret, "If I had known, why would I still be running so exhaustingly? It would be enough for me to sleep if I walked less than a hundred miles."
Huayan nodded sincerely, "That's right, so, I took a nap."
An Shiliu hated again, made a bitter face, and said weakly, "I'm starving to death, I want to eat stewed chicken."
Huayan walked to the gate, opened the fence gate from the inside, let him in, and said, "Although Xiaojin said that her grandfather told him before his death that he was not allowed to take in strange men, but based on her friendship with me, she probably won't drive you away." out."
An Shiliu threw down the reins of the horse, walked into the yard in a steady pace, and repeated, "I want to eat stewed chicken."
Huayan nodded amusedly, "Okay, you go into the house and rest, and I'll kill the chicken for you."
Satisfied, An Shiliu went into the room where Huayan came out, and when he saw the big kang, he kissed everyone more than anyone else, and fell asleep.
As soon as he lay down, An Shiqi and the others came looking for him one after another. They were all downcast when they saw Huayan, but thinking that the most depressed person was An Shiliu, they immediately felt a little more at ease.
Fortunately, the weather here is not too cold. After the kang was full of people, the courtyard was filled with sleeping people one after another.
When Grandma came out of another room, she was shocked when she saw people lying in the yard, and said to Huayan who was killing chickens, "Xiaoyan, why are there so many people here?"
Huayan carried the chicken and leaned close to her ear and said loudly, "Grandma, it's my brothers. There are many brothers in my family. I lead them on horseback all the year round to make a living. I told you before."
Granny heard it clearly, and nodded with a smile, "It's good to have more brothers, look at these young men, follow by your side, so that you will not be bullied when you travel far and wide."
Huayan nodded, "Yes, no one can bully me."
Grandma said generously, "One chicken is not enough to eat, kill them all."
Huayan thought for a while and said, "Xiao Jin went out to hunt, and she probably will be back in a while. Let's see what she hunts. If it's not enough to eat by then, it's not too late to kill."
Grandma nodded, "Listen to you."
Huayan shaved the chicken, and a handsome girl in fine clothes came back with a wild boar from the outside. The wild boar was very big, and she carried it without blushing or panting. Huayan saw the wild boar. , eyes lit up, it seems that there is no need for her
Kill the chicken again, this little thing is not enough to fill the teeth of a group of starving ghosts.
She immediately threw the chicken and walked over with a smile on her face, "Hey wild boar, your hunting skills are really impressive compared to those in the past, and you only went out for such a big time. I only slept for a while. You actually got a wild boar back, otherwise, all the living things in your yard would be lost, but now you can always keep it."
Xiao Jin's surname is Jing, and she is Jing Ji'an's biological sister. Her name is Jing Jin'er. Hua Yan follows her grandmother and calls her Xiao Jin.
When Huayan came to Southwest Fanbang in the past, it happened that her grandmother was ill. Qiuyue knew medical skills and saved her life. moon.
The friendship was forged several years ago.
Xiao Jin threw the wild boar, and was about to speak when she saw a large number of men lying in the yard, she was startled, "Why are there so many people?"
Huayan shrugged, "My brothers, I told you about these when I came earlier."
Xiao Jin was dumbfounded for a while, "You did say that, but you didn't say there would be so many brothers."
Hua Yan was funny, "There are also in the house, and the big kang is full of sleep."
Xiao Jin was shocked, "Why do you have so many brothers?"
Hua Yan said with a smile, "I'm a traveler, so I naturally need more brothers, otherwise how would I do business?"
Xiao Jin was tongue-tied for a while, and then said distressedly, "Is this wild boar enough to eat? I'll hunt another one back."
Huayan pondered for a while and said, "Should be enough, they probably don't eat that much, if not, wait for them to wake up and hunt by themselves."
Xiao Jin nodded, and said bluntly, "Then let's clean up the wild boar's fur and chop it up in a big pot for stewing."
Huayan nodded, "Okay."
So, the two girls started to work together. Grandma squatted in front of the stove to light the fire for them, put dry firewood in it, and said with a smile, "These two girls are capable people. Blessing."
Hua Yan pursed her lips and smiled.
Grandma looked at Huayan and said, "Xiaoyan, your family is a big family. You have so many brothers. It is also a wealthy family. Your family is engaged to you."
Huayan nodded, and said without concealment, "It's settled, I'm not satisfied, so I'll give it up."
Grandma was taken aback, and said with a smile, "You are the most honest child, if you say you are not satisfied, that person must be bad."
Huayan paused with her hands, and shook her head, "No, grandma, he is very good, but I think he is too good to marry. A person who is used to rolling around in the mud all day can't stand restraint. People are born to stand on the clouds, it's too high, the sky and the earth, how can they be twisted together? Don't let yourself suffer that crime."
Grandma is from the past and knows a lot. Hearing the words, he nodded with a smile, "You child, you are so young, you can see clearly, and you are so reasonable. I just couldn't see your grandma back then, and then hid in this mountain forest Waiting for the end of life to see it away day by day. But it doesn’t matter if you see it, your life will be wasted.”
Huayan said with a smile, "Grandma is wise, there is nothing wrong with this mountain forest, it is more comfortable than Jinmayutang."
"Exactly." Grandma asked with a smile, "Why didn't that little girl named Qiuyue follow you?"
Huayan smiled and said, "I'm going to marry her to my own brother, so I can't just take her around all the time, I have to let him spend more time with my brother, isn't the relationship cultivated slowly?"
Grandma smiled and nodded, "That's true."
Xiao Jin looked at Huayan curiously and asked, "I heard that it is difficult for a woman in Nanchu to find her husband's family after her divorce. What will you do in the future?"
Huayan smiled and said, "I, of course, don't worry, I caught one immediately after the divorce. If the business goes well this time, I will marry him when I go back."
Xiao Jin opened his eyes wide, "The one you caught is the one you like"
Huayan nodded, "When I first saw him, I didn't think much of it. Later, he was in poor health, but he was willing to carry me on the mountain road for thirty miles. The mountain road was full of thorns and shrubs, and it was very dangerous. It's hard, but he didn't say a word, and I felt that in this life, if there was him, no matter how difficult the road was, I would be happy. This is liking. If this is not liking, then I don't know what liking is. I I feel that the heartbeat is the love."
Xiao Jin thought for a while, "Then like you, I also have someone I like. A few days ago, there was a man who was so handsome. When I saw him, I couldn't move my eyes. I wanted to follow him until he left." No shadow, my heart is still pounding."
Huayan Dale, "You don't like it, you call it hooked."
