Traveling through ancient times and marrying a ruffian

Chapter 83

On the other side, after the men entered the mountain, Shen Mu Mu Xin kept carrying it.When the sun went down, no one came back.She couldn't stay, so she asked Aunt Li to help look after the child, and went to Hu's house by herself.

When she arrived, there were several people waiting there.As soon as I entered the yard, I heard the women chatting with their voices bright, and it sounded quite relaxing.

There was no one in the yard, so she went straight into the house, where several women sat around the table.

When women get together, they always have a lot to talk about. At this time, they are still talking about how many piglets have been born at home, how they look like, and so on.

Wu Qiang's wife was also among them. When she saw her coming in, she hurriedly called her over, "Sister-in-law, are you here too? Come and sit here."

Shen Mumu smiled and sat next to Wu Qiang's wife, and greeted the women in the room, "I can't stay in the room, so come over and have a look, everyone is here."

"It's not that we can't wait, the men have all gone to the mountains. We waited at home, it was really hard, so we all spontaneously came to Da Ya's place." It was a woman with a high jawbone who spoke.While talking, she kept knocking melon seeds in her mouth, and a few strands of hair fell into her mouth, and she casually tucked them behind her ears.Then he pushed the melon seeds and snacks in his hand to Shen Mumu's side, "Brother got it for you, knock it, to pass the time."

Shen Mumu knew that this was the daughter of the old man Zheng's family who was driving the car, she was the only one in her family, and she hired a son-in-law, whose husband's family name was Zhou.Because she is a son-in-law, she doesn't have to look at her husband's family's face, she lives a willful life, and doesn't pay attention to everything, but she is a good person.

"Thank you, auntie." Shen Mumu reached out to grab a bunch of melon seeds, and thanked politely.

"You are polite, please be polite, you and the big girl are polite." Mrs. Zhou smiled indifferently, and chatted with the people next to her.

Seeing that she was chatting with others, Shen Mumu also turned to chat with Wu Qiang's wife, "Ying'er, how long have you been here?"

"Come here after dinner." Wu Qiang's daughter-in-law reached out and patted the crumbs of melon seeds that fell from her bosom, and continued, "After Xianggong entered the mountain, my mother-in-law was very worried, and asked me to come and see it every two hours. Seeing that it was getting late and no one came back, she was even more worried and restless. After dinner, the dishes were not cleaned up, so she drove me over to wait for news."

"Didn't any news come back?" When Shen Mumu asked this question, he already had an answer in his heart, but he still couldn't help asking.

Sure enough, Wu Qiang's daughter-in-law replied, "Well, there is no news. The people who went were all together, and there is no reason for anyone to come back alone."

"That's right." Shen Mumu nodded, looked around, and asked again, "Where's the big girl?" When she entered the house, she didn't see anyone in the yard, and now there is no one in the house, where is this child? went?

"She went to the kitchen and said she was going to boil sugar water." Wu Qiang's wife replied.

It seems that she wanted to continue to say something, but she was robbed by the wife of the Zhou family, "You are sensible. The few of us will ask a few questions when we come, and the girl will answer nicely. Tell us to sit down. Come on, without letting anyone sit still, bring melon seeds and peanuts."

"It's not clever. Seeing that the melon seeds are about to disappear, I said to boil sugar water, but I can't stop it."

"I came early, so I've been watching. The little girl is stable, and she will definitely find a good family."

The big guy had a high opinion of Da Ya, and talked for a long time.The words were provoked by Shen Mumu, she didn't want to just leave, so she patiently listened to what they had to say, then got up and went to the kitchen to see Da Ya.

She didn't know that after she got up, the daughter-in-law of the Zhao brothers also got up and left.

As soon as the man left, the wife of the Zhou family spat and said, "Who is this? This is, the men went to the mountains to find their men, so they have the nerve to move to Da Ya's place to sit?! Two such big people, have not yet Da Ya is sensible."

Wu Qiang's daughter-in-law also said, "That's right, the other two are even worse, and there is no one in sight!"

"When I was looking for the men, none of them spoke, and only Mrs. Hu rushed forward by herself, thinking that this would save favors? It's really a good plan..."

The remaining few women talked about the bad things of the other families one by one, and even talked about the thread on the red hijab when the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family married.

Shen Mu Muyuan was still thinking about the women resting in the house, so he didn't help Da Ya.When I went to the kitchen, I saw that Da Ya was not alone.Her little sisters were with her, and the second girl of the Zhou family was also there.The little sisters teased her with words, but the older girl's face hung between her knees, and she couldn't see her expression clearly.

It's just that the little sister said a lot of things, but the big girl didn't say a word, she must be feeling uncomfortable.

Shen Mumu walked to her side and patted her on the shoulder, "Is the water boiled?"

The big girl looked up, blinked hard, and then replied, "That's all right."

Shen Mumu walked over and sat down next to the eldest girl, and instead of saying comforting words, she asked the second girl of the Zhou family, "Xiaoqin, where did you just say? Someone came to ask Dandan to propose marriage?"

The little girl named Dandan twisted Xiaoqin's arm and said, "It's nothing, Xiaoqin took the wrong medicine and talked nonsense."

Xiaoqin was twisted until she grinned, and kept begging for mercy, "Yes, yes, yes, I took the wrong medicine and talked nonsense."

As soon as she came out like this, several girls laughed out loud, and Da Ya also smiled slightly, and the atmosphere improved a lot.The age of Shen Mumu's body is only 17 years old, at most how old he is, and it's not very abrupt to mix among several young girls.

While the few people were talking, someone came into the courtyard again, "Dear girl, did you come back?"

Da Ya responded and went out, Shen Mumu winked at them, and Da Ya's little sisters also went out.

The later it got, the more people came, and the house couldn't hold people, so the women moved to the yard to stand.There are more and more people, but the voices are getting lower and lower, and the air pressure is getting lower and lower.Even Wu Qiang's daughters-in-law, who kept talking non-stop, stopped talking.

At this time, I haven't come back yet, didn't I encounter something?
When the big girl started to boil the third pot of sugar water, the little girl lowered her head and stuffed firewood into the stove.Shen Mumu felt something was wrong, she leaned over to have a look, the little girl was really crying silently.Bean-sized teardrops hit the plant ashes, making a big hole.

Shen Mumu took the firewood in her hand, stroked the hair scattered on both sides of her cheeks, and wiped away the tears, "Silly girl, what are you worried about? There are so many people going together, are you still worried about what might happen?"

This time the little girl burst into tears even more fiercely, shaking her head wildly, choking with sobs, unable to speak.

"If you're worried, let's pick it up, okay?"

"is it okay?"

"Naturally."

After Shen Mumu said this, he walked into the yard and raised his voice, "Waiting is not an option. I plan to go to the foot of the mountain to have a look. Do you want to go together?"

The wife of the Zhou family was the first to stand up, "Count me in, if you wait any longer, I'll finish drinking all of Da Ya's sugar water."

Wu Qiang's wife also stood up, "I'll go too."

"I'll go as well."

"I'll go as well."

Followed by a sound of going.

"Okay, I've decided to go, go home and get a torch, let's go to the foot of the mountain to have a look."

The women were already anxiously waiting, and now that someone was taking the lead to pick them up, they hurried home to grab a torch.

Men take things and can go straight to work, but women cannot.Before going out, you have to explain to the old man and comfort the child.The action was quite big. The neighbors heard the movement, and even those who had a man in the family offered to help.

In this way, the women who were originally in the yard were removed, and a dozen extra men were added.Added up, there were forty or fifty people, and a group of people carried torches and walked towards the foot of the mountain mightily.

Coincidentally, as soon as they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they saw the torches lit in the forest, and the group was very excited.

"I'm coming."

"It's them, it's them."

After a while, someone realized something was wrong. The torch was not a line, but a circle, and it walked for a while and stopped for a while.

Someone in the crowd was annoyed, "What is this for? This is going out of the mountain soon, why are you walking around?"

When Shen Mumu saw it, his heart turned cold.Surrounded in a circle, as if surrounded by something.

Surrounded by what?There are only wolves in the mountains!
As soon as she thought about it, she heard the older man say anxiously, "Hurry up, go home and get the pot,"

"What is this for?" someone asked.

The person who reacted explained, "They may have encountered a wolf. Let's go get the pot and iron and make a noise to scare the wolf away."

After listening to the words, the men and women ran back.

Shen Mumu added later, "Fire can drive away wolves! If you have firewood, bring some firewood along the way."

"Yes, yes, I need to get firewood." In the confusion, someone responded.

After hearing this, the daughters-in-law of the Zhao family brothers said anxiously, "The land is not far away, and there is a lot of wheat straw piled up. Come and carry it together."

Those two people were not far away from Shen Mumu, when she heard this, she called out to Da Ya and Wu Qiang's wife, "We won't go back, go grab the straw, and light the fire first."

The few women who were close also stayed spontaneously, and they went to hold the straw together with Shen Mumu.

It was busy for a while, and when they lit a raging fire at the foot of the mountain, they looked at the mountain again, and they couldn't see the torch. Just in time, all the people who went back to get the iron utensils rushed back.

Shen Mumu then shouted, "The torches are all gone, they must have come out behind the mountain bag. Everyone beat the iron and pots in their hands, shouting and knocking, the louder the sound, the better."

After a lot of fuss, the people at the foot of the mountain were also panicked and excited. After hearing Shen Mumu's words, they all yelled at the top of their voices.

Yamazato
"Thank you, steward, my torch has gone out." Someone shouted in the hurry.

Invisibly, they began to trust Xie Yu.

Xie Yu's heart sank, and he said, "It's okay, I'm going out of the mountain right now, just keep going."

Next, the torches continued to go out, and the wolves got closer and closer...

A daring wolf approached quietly from the gap. Fortunately, Wu Qiang spotted it in time and waved a torch to drive it away.With this wolf taking the lead, there are constantly wolves eager to try.The situation was on the verge of breaking out, and Xie Yu began to consider the possibility of fighting a wolf.

At this time, there was a loud shout outside.Looking up, he saw that there was a fire that soared into the sky.

Xie Yu knew that it was people from the town who came out to pick them up, so he raised his voice, "There are people outside to pick them up. Those who have torches in their hands will throw the torches on both sides of the road, and after a few steps, we will leave the mountain."

Along the way, Xie Yu gave orders when to burn clothes and when to throw torches.By this time, after throwing clothes and torches several times, they also had experience.After hearing Xie Yu's words, the person holding the torch threw the torch to both sides of the road without any hesitation.Taking advantage of the retreat of the wolves, he ran forward with all his strength.

After running for dozens of meters, I turned around the hill, and saw a group of people around the fire in the open space at the foot of the hill, shouting.

The pack of wolves chased them out of the mountain, and seeing the soaring flames, they dared not move forward. They bared their teeth and turned around a few times. Finally, after a long wolf howl, they turned and entered the woods.

The person who just came out of the mountain ran to the fire, collapsed on the ground and gasped, "His grandma almost didn't come back to life."

Holding the torch, Shen Mumu carefully looked at every person who rushed over. After seeing everyone, she saw her ruffian running out with big strides.A stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.
