"This is the first time for a big girl to get on the sedan chair." Wu Nian sighed, gritted his teeth, and then turned around to find his first love, Mrs. Chen.
The houses in these hundreds of households are all similar in length. Wu Nian accurately found Chen's small courtyard. The two doors were closed, but the gap in the door panel could fit an adult's arm through.
It doesn't make much difference whether the broken door is opened or closed, and it doesn't prevent theft.
"Dong dong dong." Wu Nian took a deep breath, calmed down and went to knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
A girl's voice sounded.
A smile appeared on Wu Nian's face and he said, "Ya'er. It's me. You, Uncle Wu."
I don't know if it was affected by the original owner's memory, but his voice automatically became much softer.
"Oh. It's Uncle Wu." There was a little joy in the girl's voice. Then there was a series of brisk footsteps, and finally a creak, and the rotten door was opened.
A cute little face emerged from it. The skin on the palm-sized face is snow-white, but the cheeks are rosy, and the big eyes are shining as if they can talk.
The little girl is good-looking and not too thin. But the cotton-padded jacket he was wearing was very worn and a little awkward. It might have been an adult's clothes that had been altered to make him smaller.
Seeing this little girl, Wu Nian sighed in his heart.
Given Chen's situation, it is not easy to raise her daughter like this.
The little girl's surname is Li and her single name is Ya.
"Uncle Wu." After seeing Wu Nian, Li Ya was filled with joy and jumped towards Wu Nian. Wu Nian quickly opened his arms and hugged Li Ya.
"Keke." Li Ya smiled and rubbed Wu Nian's chest with her rosy cheeks, very intimately.
The little girl is very innocent.
Every time the original owner came to Chen's house, he was polite and courteous. He would also buy some food to bribe Li Ya. Over time, Li Ya liked Wu Nian quite a lot.
"Uncle Wu. You haven't looked at us for a long time." Li Ya said coquettishly after being happy for a while.
"Uncle Wu has been a little busy recently. No, I will come to see you when I have some free time." Wu Nian smiled and scratched Li Ya's little nose with his hand, making an excuse.
Li Ya believed it simply and became happy again.
Wu Nian said while holding Li Ya as he entered the yard. He looked around to see if there was no one in the yard, and knew that Mrs. Chen might be bedridden.
The original owner and the Chen family were childhood sweethearts, so they were not considered outsiders. Wu Nian hugged Li Ya and went into the east room to visit. Sure enough, I saw Mrs. Chen leaning on the bedside and looking at the door.
The windows were closed and the air smelled of medicine.
Mrs. Chen's chin was pointed and she looked sick. But it's really nice. Not to mention her snow-white skin and exquisite appearance, even wearing thick clothes could not hide the greatness of her chest.
The silky black hair hangs down on the chest along the delicate ears, which reflects the majesty.
"Sister. Are you seriously ill?" Based on the original owner's behavior, Wu Nian carefully put down Li Ya and called her "sister" affectionately.
Chen, however, looked at Wu Nian with a cold face.
Wu Nian looked away in embarrassment. He knew that Chen was blaming him for Liu Xiang's incident.
Mrs. Chen looked at the face of this childhood sweetheart, sighed quietly, and her attitude became slightly better. Said: "It's an old problem. If it can't be cured, it won't die."
The memory of the original owner had another effect. Wu Nian felt his heart and liver tightening, and the pain was severe. The sentence "cannot be cured and cannot die" contains so much sadness and despair.
"I heard about Liu Xiang. You jumped into the well to save her, which is quite responsible. You should also regret what you did in the past. From now on, just take care of Liu Xiang and don't beat her or scold her. Live as two people. Only then will the days be prosperous.”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Chen's tone was a little low and her eyes were slightly red.
Wu Nian knew that Chen felt the same way. Now she was alone and lonely.
"Yeah." Wu Nian hummed. That was his original plan. Now that he has traveled to the Wu family, this is his home.
Li Ya was quite sensible and felt that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, so she obediently came to stand next to her mother.
"Come here." Mrs. Chen raised her right hand, wiped her eyes with her sleeve, and then greeted Wu Nian.
Wu Nian didn't know why and was a little embarrassed. After all, he is not the original owner. If it had been the original owner, he would have been so happy that he would have pounced on it long ago.
"Come here, don't be so coy." Mrs. Chen couldn't help but said angrily when she saw Wu Nian behaving strangely.
This sound of anger really made Wu Nian, a hard-blooded man, feel paralyzed from half of his body. Not only is she good-looking and has a good figure, but she also has a sweet voice.
Wu Nian came to the bed nervously, his nose moved slightly, and he smelled a faint scent of women's body in the room full of medicinal smell.
It could also be a hallucination.
Mrs. Chen lowered her head, struggled to take out a black money bag from under the bed, handed it to Wu Nian without hesitation, and said, "There is some money here, take it back to buy medicine for Liu Xiang."
Look at the money bags placed on these slender palms. Wu Nian's nervousness disappeared.
Wu Nian felt more and more that the original owner was a bastard who could kill him ten thousand times without getting rid of his hatred.
The original owner had a child bride, but he didn't cherish her.
Mrs. Chen has a childhood sweetheart, but she is always greedy for other people's bodies.
Little did he know, these two women. One is his family and the other is someone who is good to him.
Although these hundred households are large and there are many people, how can they compare with these two women?
Turns out the original owner messed everything up.
Wu Nian took a deep breath, smiled and reached out to take the money bag, then stuffed it back into the bed. He looked at Mrs. Chen seriously and said, "Sister, you underestimate me. I'm not here to ask you for money." .I borrowed the bow and arrows from you."
"I want to go hunting in the mountains and rescue Xiang'er. I will also cure your disease."
Chen's eyes narrowed and he tilted his head to look at Wu Nian, as if to make sure that the other party was telling the truth.
This is exactly the same as Liu Xiang.
distrust.
Wu Niantan looked at Chen with open eyes. Mrs. Chen blinked and a bright and moving smile appeared on her face.
This smile is so pretty.
"Okay. You have finally grown up and become a man." Mrs. Chen nodded happily, and before Wu Nian could be happy, she said, "But I will not lend you the bow or arrows."
"Why?!" Wu Nian lost his guard a little and looked at Chen in disbelief.
You can take out your meager money without hesitation, but you don't lend me a bow?
Mrs. Chen sighed, shook her head and said, "Although you are brave, you are too young."
She raised her head, looked at Wu Nian seriously, and said, "As the saying goes, study in spring and summer, and hunt in autumn and winter. Autumn and winter are the most fertile times for prey, but conversely, they are also the craziest times."
"There are not only hares and roe deer on this mountain, but also hungry wild wolves and tigers."
"Experienced hunters are worried when they team up to go into the mountains. How about you? No one will team up with you."
"If you go into the mountains alone, won't you never come back?"
"I don't want to lend you my bow and cost you your life."
After that, Chen stubbornly dug out the money bag under the bed and handed it to Wu Nian.
Wu Nian finally understood.
She's saying I can't do it.
