Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game

Chapter 239 The Bride Dedicated to the Mountain God (29)

On the way back, Jiang Qiuchen explained the whole story to A Su.

In addition to being surprised, A Su couldn't help but sigh at Jiang Qiuchen's good luck.

"A Su, I didn't plan to stay long this time. I just wanted to pack up some things and go down the mountain."

"I used to be the saint of this village. I had to be careful with everything I said and did, always remembering the responsibilities I shouldered."

"But I am not now. Without that identity, I am just an ordinary woman."

"Do you remember? I told you earlier that I wanted to go out for a walk. Now is the time to do it."

"Will you come with me?"

As his only friend in Shibi Village, Jiang Qiuchen did not hide too much from A Su, but directly told him the next plan.

If the other party is willing, the two of them can go down the mountain together and take care of each other.

Upon hearing this suggestion, a hint of yearning emerged on Ah Su's face.

But before Jiang Qiuchen could ask more questions, A Su shook his head and sighed.

"I still won't go. Although the mountain god has abolished the old custom of marrying a bride, there are still many trivial matters in the village besides this one."

"The high priestess is old, and it is difficult for her to handle many things. I have to stay with her."

"Acheng, you go ahead. I'll stay in Lingshan. If you have time, come back and see us."

A Su's answer was within Jiang Qiucheng's expectations. She didn't say much, but just nodded quietly.

Everyone has their own thoughts and considerations in their hearts. What they think is good may not be considered so by the other party.

In that case, let her embark on that road alone.

"Okay, then next time I come back, I'll bring back more delicious and fun things."

"Especially those rare gadgets that are far away and not available here."

A Su hugged Jiang Qiuchen, buried his head in her shoulders, and whispered "OK".

……

After things were done, it was getting dark and it was not a good time to leave.

Jiang Qiuchen stayed in the stilt house to rest for a night. The next day, she simply packed some luggage, took some food that A Su had forced upon her last night, and prepared to set off.

Unexpectedly, just two steps after leaving the stilt house, I met the original owner's parents who were rushing here on the path.

Looking at the two somewhat familiar faces, Jiang Qiuchen stopped in confusion.

"Acheng, where are you going with your luggage?"

For some reason, she felt a little uneasy.

Ever since the original owner was chosen as the saint, she had lost contact with her former family. Over the years, not only had they not asked about their well-being, they had barely even seen each other's faces.

We have been strangers for a long time, why did you suddenly show up today?

"Where I go has nothing to do with you two."

Jiang Qiuchen held the cloth bag on his shoulder with one hand, turned his head away, and replied coldly.

After noticing her impatience, the two people standing in front of her became slightly embarrassed.

But it was obvious that they did not come here today to have a verbal chat, and such a setback was not enough to drive them away.

"Good boy, you can't say that."

"Your father and I had no choice but to hand you over to the village chief and the high priest." "Our family was forcibly separated for so many years, and we missed so many days together. It's a pity."

"Now that the custom has been abolished by the mountain god, and you are no longer a saint, you should return home and reunite with us."

The woman clenched her hands together and rubbed them up and down as she spoke, looking very nervous.

Jiang Qiuchen narrowed his eyes slightly, but didn't quite believe what he said.

"A family? A reunion?"

"If I remember correctly, you gave birth to a new child not long after I was chosen as the Saint?"

"Although I was brought into the stilt house to live alone after I reached the age of 15, when I was very young, I was often taken by the high priest's side to learn the complicated blessing rituals."

"If I made the slightest mistake, I would be scolded badly. At that time, I cried and shouted, wanting you to take me home, but what did you do? You didn't even dare to look at me, and ran away as if you were afraid of being haunted by a ghost."

"You avoided me earlier, but now you're sticking to me again?"

As Jiang Qiuchen continued to accuse, the expressions of the two men became more and more unnatural.

"Acheng, you can't say that. We were forced to do this at that time because of external pressure."

"Your brother is very good. When you come home, we will love you together."

"You are no longer the mountain god's bride, but as a woman you are going to get married. How can you not have your family choose a husband for you and plan your marriage?"

Jiang Qiuchen sneered in his heart, it turned out that this was what the two of them were planning.

"Haha, then don't bother the two of you to worry about it. I have my own plans."

"You all saw what happened yesterday. I have a close relationship with the Mountain God. If you insist on making things difficult for me, I don't mind asking the Mountain God to seek justice for me!"

When the mountain god was mentioned, the other party couldn't help but feel a little weak and his tone was hesitant.

"This this……"

Jiang Qiuchen took the opportunity to walk around him and walked forward without looking back.

"You said before that the relationship between us is over. Even if we meet face to face, we can just pretend that we don't know each other."

"I, Jiang Qiucheng, have been without a father or a mother for a long time. I don't need you two strangers to worry about me."

"Goodbye, I hope we never see each other again."

After she finished speaking, Jiang Qiuchen walked forward without looking back. No matter what happened behind her, she could not stop.

If someone is too nice to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. Not to mention that these step-parents have disappeared for such a long time, and now they come back, it is really upsetting.

Even if circumstances force us to do so, there are thousands of ways to make children feel the love of their parents.

Instead of remaining silent and showing up only after things are over.

Even that day, when she was about to be sent to the Xiaguang Cave for farewell, these two people did not come forward to say a word.

How does the saying go? Late affection is cheaper than grass. A grown-up child will no longer need a piece of candy he had when he was eight years old.

You want to trap her with just a few words? What are you dreaming of?

The more Jiang Qiuchen thought about it, the angrier he became. He walked faster and faster, and at the end, he even started running.

The wind blew across her cheeks and lifted up her clothes, making them rustle.

Not long after, she successfully arrived at the entrance of Shibi Village. Looking at the wider and flatter road, Jiang Qiuchen strode forward without hesitation.

After leaving here, her life has truly begun.
