Transmigration: The Farm Life of a “Fool” - Chapter 303

Guoguo woke up at dawn the next day. He turned his head to the side where Shanwai Muya was sleeping. It was already empty, and he had gotten up.

Guoguo also smelled the fragrance outside. He didn’t know what Shanwai Muya had cooked outside, but he felt a sense of anticipation.

He couldn’t move, so even if he woke up, he could only lie on the bed and smell the fragrance outside.

After a while, Shanwai Muya opened the door and came in, carrying a tray with several things in it.

Seeing that he was awake, he smiled and greeted him, “So you are awake. Are you hungry? I’ve got breakfast ready.”

Guoguo shook his head and said. “I’m not hungry yet. I ate a lot yesterday.”

ShNwai Muya said, “You have to eat even if you’re not hungry. I’ll bring some water for you to wash your face. Then you can eat it. Someone should come to my house today. I hope they won’t scare you.”

Guoguo shook his head. “No way! After all, I’m a boy. I’m not so easily scared.”

“That’s right, you are not afraid of falling down from such a high place. You just need to see a few people today,” Shanwai Muya said as he walked out.

Guoguo was bored lying on the bed, so he could only sit and wait for Shanwai Muya to return. However, he was still a little curious about the clansmen that Shanwai Muyan said would scare him.

Shanwai Muya brought the water to wash Guoguo’s face and brushed his teeth before feeding him a meal. The breakfast was porridge with some pickles that she had made, which was light, but also appetizing. Guoguo ate two bowls in one go. After eating, he saw Shanwai Muya smiling. Guoguo knew what he was laughing at and he felt so embarrassed that he turned his face away.

……

Shanwai Muya was right. It wasn’t long before Guoguo heard the sound outside. There were many people calling Shanwai Muya’s name, which all sounded very young.

Shanwai Muya went out to greet them, then the voice outside sounded even louder. They were talking about everything, and most importantly, they were asking Shanwai Muya about the person he had rescued.

Shanwai Muya told the patriarch about it when he went to his house to take rice last night. There were other people in the patriarch’s home at the time and they all heard it. However, because it was already dark yesterday, they didn’t come over to take a look.

They had been curious and had arrived early in the morning.

Shanwai Muya didn’t hide it and brought the group of people into the house. Then he introduced Guoguo to them, “His name is Xu Mu. He fell from the top of the mountain and was picked up by me. He can’t move now, so he has to lie on the bed. We’ll get married as soos as he’s recovered.” He was extraordinarily proud when he said the last sentence. As for the reason, they did not know.

The group of people entered the room. Guoguo smiled and waved at them stiffly.

Shanwai Muya saw his movements and immediately walked over. He complained, “Don’t you know you can’t move your hands?  What are you doing? I told them that you’re injured and they won’t mind.”

When they heard Shanwai Muya’s words, people who were watching Guoguo nodded one after another. For their understanding, Guoguo returned a gentle smile.

The fifteen-year-old boy had gradually grown up. His fair and beautiful face made a lot of childe blush, which made Shanwai Muya a little jealous, but he couldn’t say anything in front of so many people.

They had seen him and he had already smiled at them. Shanwai Muya was just about to chase them away when one of them came over and told Guoguo, “My name is Shanwai Muzhu. I’m Shanwai Muya’s friend. What’s your name?”

Shanwai Muya looked very angry. He had already known his name before he came in, but now he asked again. Shanwai Muzhu really couldn’t be nice to him and wanted to snatch everything from him.

Guoguo, who was keen enough, also noticed that something was wrong. He said, “My name is Xu Mu. I heard that Muya had introduced me to you outside. Thank you for coming to see me. I’ll go to you house to offer thanks when I’m recovered.”

Guoguo smiled and changed the topic and other people told him not to be too courteous. They came to see him just out of curiosity. They would actually ask Guoguo to go to their houses to offer thanks.

And because of that, Shanwai Muzhu was stopped from trying to make friends with Guoguo, which made Shanwai Muya very happy. She secretly glared at Shanwai Muzhu. Shanwai Muzhu also felt Shanwai Muya staring at him, so he stared back. The two of them were fighting hard, and Guoguo touched Shanwai Muya gently and helplessly.

Shanwai Muya did not want to leave any bad impression on Guoguo, so he stopped staring at Shanwai Muzhu. After a few words to these people, he said that Guoguo was not feeling well and had to rest, then chased them away.

After they left, Shanwai Muya stopped smiling and looked at the back of Shanwai Muzhu angrily.

The person that Shanwai Muya hated the most was him. He would fight with him for everything since they were just kids, and he still fought with him after they had grown up. He often said that he had no dad and daddy, and that he had sprung from a rock. They have been fighting over this thing since childhood. And he had the guts to say that he was his friend in front of Xu  Mu. How shameless he was!

Shanwai Muya entered the room angrily and saw Guoguo smiling at the door, as if he had known he would come in.

Seeing this, Shanwai Muya couldn’t get angry anymore. He walked over to the bed and asked, “You must be tired after all this talking! You can lie down for a while. I’m working outside. Call me if you need anything.”

Guoguo was not that tired, but he had nothing else to do, so he just nodded.

Shanwai Muya saw him lying down and turned to leave. Just as he took two steps, he was stopped by Guoguo.

“Muya.”

Shanwai Muya looked back at him.

“You don’t have to be unhappy. If it’s yours, it’s yours. No one can take it away. I won’t go back on my promise.”

After Guoguo said this, he turned his face to the other side, and Shanwai Muya didn’t say anything. He just glanced at him and left.

But when he went out, he was laughing with extraordinary pleasure.

……

Just like that, Guoguo lived in the tribe as Shanwai Muya’s husband. Just like Shanwai Muya said, there were indeed not too many people there. Every day, there were people who came to see Guoguo. He had almost met everyone of Shanwai clan in the days that he lay in bed.

Among them, there were many people who liked Shanwai Muya. There were also many people who were not as ugly as Shanwai Muya said. They are all defiant when they met Guoguo.

Guoguo was not angry at all. Even if he was angry now, it would be useless. He smiled at everyone and he didn’t show any weakness when he spoke. He really didn’t let those who came to trouble him gain any advantage.

In the face of this situation, the happiest person was Shanwai Muya, because there would be fewer people around him in the future, especially those who didn’t look good.

The wound on Guoguo’s body were also recovering gradually. The medicine of the Shanwai clan was very useful both externally and internally. After a month he would at least be able to use his hands and feet, so long as he didn’t use too much strength.

After lying in bed for a whole month, he could finally get out of bed to walk around.

The place where the Shanwai clan resides was in the middle of a gorge. The two sides were separated by a grand canyon. You couldn’t see what was on it or what was in front. It felt a little constricted, but the scenery was not bad.

Guoguo used a walking stick that Shanwai Muya had made for him, supported by him and slowly wandered around the tribe.

After looking at the terrain here, he also understood why no one came in and no one went out. If no one led the way, it was easy to die, either coming in or going out. They almost never went out unless they were stupid or desperate.

People here were self-reliant in terms of food and clothing. There was no need to buy it outside, and even the currency was useless here. They all bartered here.

People who have been outside definitely wouldn’t be able to stay here. There were very few people here who could read, let alone reading oyther books.

Guoguo had wanted Shanwai Muya to find him a few books before, so that he could kill time when he was bored, but Shanwai Muya looked at him with a look of embarrassment. He told him that there were no books in the tribe and the only people who could read were the patriarch and the candidate for the next patriarch.

Guoguo felt a little bad after he heard that, because it was too boring to lie on the bed.

Shanwai Muya didn’t have much to do every day. Apart from doing housework at home, he just went out for food and put  cattle and sheep out to pasture. After Guoguo came, the most thing he did every day was to accompany him and talk with him.

He was also a little afraid that Guoguo would be too bored alone, and he would want to leave and not mayy him when he recovered. Then he would be miserable.

Therefore, he tried his best to make Guoguo not too bored. He asked people from the tribey to talk to him every day. The situation was better, but this kind of improvement was brought by Guoguo himself.

When he was a child, Guoguo heard Xu Ran tell a lot of stories and he still remembered them. People came to him every day and asked him the same questions. He didn’t want to answer them like that every day, so he started to tell them stories, and sometimes he incidentally said the story about the outside world.

It could be seen that these people were very eager for the outside, but no one saids that they wanted to go out and take a look. No matter how good the outside was, it was not their home. They had never heard much of what Guoguo said, and how to survive after going out was also a problem, so everyone just laughed it off.

However, Guoguo agreed with their thoughts because the people here were too innocent and it was difficult for them to survive in the outside.

Ever since he found something to do, Guoguo was not as bored as before. And he was even more cooperative when Shanwai Muya asked him to take the medicine and changed the medicine for him, so his wound recovered quickly. He should be all right in another two months.

It would be winter by then.

This should be Chapter 7, and Chapter 7 should be Chapter 8. I posted it with my phone back then. So I made a mistake. Now I’ll make it up for free.
