Cute Beauty’s Romantic Affairs - C80
After cleaning up the mess after the picnic, it was already late in the evening. The forest began to grow foggy as Ye Xuan made his daughter carry a basket on her back. She carried her daughter on her back and said, “Let’s go home!”
The little girl leaned against his broad shoulder as she smiled sweetly. Then, she recalled, “Should we catch a few fish and bring them back to eat?”
Ye Xuan stopped his steps and placed the pampered mother down from behind him. “Your wife is really considerate. Your husband will go grab a few large ones and bring them back to your mother and younger brother to nourish their bodies.”
He was full of smiles, and the words he spoke were as melodious as a play. Lin Family Village called his wife “from behind my house”, so how could she be called “wife”? They were all just nicknames for the culture people on the stage.
Ye Xuan took out a wooden stick and neatly stabbed six large fish into the ground. He wrapped the fish with tree leaves and held it in his hand, then carried the cute girl on his back.
On the way back, the little girl didn’t have to walk on the ground by herself as she laid on Ye Xuan’s back. There was a reason why people didn’t dare to go up the mountain, the mountain was steep, and the sky was dark in the morning and evening.
However, Ye Xuan didn’t care about it at all. Walking on it was like walking on flat ground, and he could even spare some time to talk to his daughter.
“Have you ever gone to the Eighteen Mile Bridge to listen to a play?”
When she was young, she was doted on by the original owner of the bridge. Every year, there would be a team working there to set up a show in the southeast part of the county. In this era where entertainment was scarce, this was a rare entertainment.
The Lin Family Village was rather far from the 18 mile bridge, and just the journey back and forth required a long time. But even so, the little girl was even taken to see a show when she was young.
In his memory, there were red lanterns hanging on the street of ten miles long, and the crowd was noisy. On the road, there were many stalls selling things. The children were all laughing and laughing, and they were extremely happy.
“My mother likes to listen to plays, every time when she comes to the stage, my father would pack all the things in the house, push an oxcart and put my mother and me on it, and the whole family would go listen to plays, singing for three days straight. We would arrive early, and take a good seat …”
Ye Xuan’s voice was calm, and his little sister was extremely serious as she listened to him talk about his father and mother.
“I can’t forget. That day, the moon was bright and round. My father was pushing us on a mountain path. The eyes of the wolves in the forest were like will-o ‘-the-wisps. My father started singing at the top of his lungs.”
I have seen the birds chirping in and out of Jinling Jade Palace, Qin Huai Water Pavilion bloomed early, who knows if it could be easily frozen or not! They saw him rise up from his pavilion, saw him feast his guests, and saw their building collapse! “I have slept soundly in this pile of moss and grass …
The girl’s entire body was covered in goosebumps and unconsciously fell into Ye Xuan’s play. It was as if she’d seen the black shadow on the mountain path with Ye Xuan. A strong man pushed his wife and son, ignoring the surrounding wolves as he shouted such a sentimental play …
After singing the song, Ye Xuan paused his steps and put the little girl on his back again. After a moment of silence, he continued, “My mother’s fate was not her own. Luckily, she met my father. “Girl, I know you have a lot of questions for me, but I can’t say it yet. If I say it now, our peaceful days might come to an end, and I want to live a peaceful life with you. No matter what happens, you have to remember this sentence …”
Ye Xuan’s wide back was like a huge ship, and his steps were unsteady as he walked, as if undulating in the sea. The little sister’s body had long since become tired and she unknowingly fell asleep under Ye Xuan’s gentle mutters. In her dazed state, she heard him say that he wanted to live a peaceful life with her. Unconsciously, a sweet smile appeared on her face …
Just now, Jin Ling’s father came looking for them. He said that food had already been prepared at home and was waiting for them to come home for dinner, but the moment Ye Xuan and Jiao Niang went out, it was already dark. Cheng Yu wanted to go up the mountain to look for Ye Xuan, but was stopped by Huang Yi. “With your little body.”
“Then I can’t just sit back and do nothing! “How can I be as heartless as you? If something were to happen to my lady …”
Before he finished his sentence, Huang Yi spat out the grass in his usual sloppy manner. “Don’t underestimate Ye Xuan. He’s not an ordinary person. If he can’t protect the delicate girl, wouldn’t you lose your life if you go?”
Cheng Yu recalled how Ye Xuan would usually teach his children morning training, how he would hunt a bear by himself, how his strength would be unparalleled, and then how he would think of himself … That seemed to make sense.
Even though he and Huang Yi had cleaned up for a day, they had only managed two acres of land. If they were all cleaned up today, it would still take another two or three days for Qiuju to be able to eat and feed the pigs and look after the kids. She was all by herself at home, so it was likely that she wouldn’t be able to take care of the pigs completely.
“They’re coming down.” While Cheng Yu was lost in his thoughts, Huang Yi suddenly spoke. He looked carefully and sure enough, a figure came down from the mountain. It was carrying another person on its back. He hurriedly went up and greeted it: “What’s going on?”
“It’s nothing, I was just a bit tired and fell asleep. Let’s go home. ”
Cheng Huzhong nodded, picked up his things and followed behind, “What did you find today?”
“I didn’t go far. I found some herbs that I usually use, and even caught a few silver fish to eat.”
Huang Yi rolled his eyes. I didn’t get that far before coming back. What was I doing for so long?
However, Cheng Huzhong was like a fool as he muddleheadedly nodded his head and replied, “Daughter usually doesn’t do heavy work, so rushing up the mountain is a little tiring. How about I go with you next time, it’s also good to find some good things.”
Huang Yi couldn’t hold back his laughter. What can I do if I follow you up the mountain? He really was an idiot.
Cheng Huzhong thought he was looking down on his emaciated body and said angrily, “Don’t look at my emaciated body. In the past, when I was escaping into the wilderness, I knew a lot of good things.”
“Yes yes yes, I was wrong.” Huang Yi’s face was expressionless as he apologized, but after a moment, he was still unable to hold it in and once again let out a laugh.
Ye Xuan chuckled. The people that the little girl had brought back all had their own unique features, but all of them had pure hearts and had their own ambitions. Huang Yi was like an old martial artist, with his sharp eyes, he was able to see through the love affair between him and his daughter. But even though Cheng Huanzhong had already married his wife and children, he still had the heart of a real child, so he didn’t think too much about it.
The little girl slowly woke up amidst the noise. Only after hearing Cheng Huzhong and Huang Yi bickering did she realize that they’d left the mountain and were about to get off Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan didn’t notice and allowed her to jump off.
“Ouch!” The little girl fell to the ground. Her ankle was originally injured, but the pain caused her face to turn pale and break out in a cold sweat.
Ye Xuan hastily checked. “What are you doing?”
The little girl couldn’t even speak because of the pain. Wasn’t she afraid that people would misunderstand if they saw her? But then again, they were all acquaintances. They probably knew what he was afraid of. Looking at him now, it was clear that he had not awoken from his sleep and his mind was muddled.
It was too late to say anything now. Ye Xuan carried the basket with the two of them and rushed home, “What should I say about you?”
The little girl was groaning in his arms. There was nothing wrong with the mountain, so he didn’t know if it was bad luck or bad.
Wang Plum Blossom had long been waiting at the door with a lantern, but when she saw the cute girl like this, her hands went weak and she almost fell to her knees. She threw away her walking stick and ran over to the cute girl, “What happened? What’s wrong? ”
“Mom, I’m fine. I twisted my ankle just now.” Why do you think she’s so stupid?
Wang Mei Hua stomped her feet in anger, “Tell me, why are you so stupid?” “You scared me to death! I thought something had happened!”
“Hurry up and enter the house to take a look!” How should he deal with this? Didn’t his feet just happen to be in there not long ago? I think you just want to get old and fall sick! ”
Wang Plum Blossom talked nonstop and was in a hurry to go back to her room to get some alcohol. Seeing her walking so quickly, the cute girl was surprised, “Mother? You’re okay? “
