The expression on the face of the leader of Xuyoushen Village when he said these words looked a little different from usual, and this expression made me have some doubts in my heart.
I clearly just promised them that we would make a new type of weapon, but now they don't let me go back to draw the blueprints and quietly called me aside for what?
I was wondering in my heart while following Xuyu Shencun quietly into another room. No one spoke.
Occasionally, a few birds fly by in the sky, and their white wings make people feel a little better. The freedom of birds is also what I yearn for.
Just as I was lost in my thoughts, Suyu Shencun in front of me suddenly pointed at a door that looked rather ornately decorated and said:
"I have something private to tell you. There were too many people in the hall just now. Let's go to this small room and talk."
Seeing that the expression on Xuyou Shencun's face looked particularly different from usual when he said these words, my doubts increased even more.
At that moment, I could only lower my head, lift the curtain and walk in. All I could see was a bed and a few chairs. The whole room looked very simple.
There were a few drawings on the table. When I saw them, I understood that the other party seemed to be doing a lot of research in the house.
While I was sighing in my heart, I casually sat down on a chair nearby that didn't look very good, and the chair made a creaking sound.
At this time, Xuyou Shencun also sat down next to me, stammering and unable to say a complete sentence, with a very hesitant expression on his face.
After seeing this, I asked in confusion, "Can't you just say what's going on? Is there anything we can't talk about?"
Perhaps it was because of my words that Xuyou Shencun felt relieved. As soon as I finished speaking, he stared into my eyes and said:
"I believe in your character. Your willingness to stay this time shows that you are dedicated to the people in our village. I am truly touched by this."
When I heard these words suddenly, I was really a little touched in my heart, but I didn't say anything. I just listened to the other party continue to say:
"And ever since you came to our village, designing blueprints and making those tools every day, I can tell you're a very capable person."
At first, I felt a little complacent in my heart, but after hearing these words, I suddenly couldn't figure out the other party's intentions.
I just sat there blankly as Xuyou Shencun continued, "I'm no longer the same person I used to be. Over the past two days, I've felt increasingly overwhelmed by managing the village."
"Actually, I've been searching the village for someone to take over my job for quite some time, but I haven't found anyone yet. Luckily, you're here."
Such a long conversation made me feel a little confused from the bottom of my heart. It was not until I heard the last sentence of the other party that I vaguely realized something.
Without waiting for the other party to finish, he asked suspiciously, "Chief, what do you mean? I see that you are in good health."
The hot steam quietly emerged from the teacup, and at this time, Shuyu Shencun kept staring at the steaming hot tea, smiled and said:
"I've been observing you for such a long time, and I think you're the only one qualified for this position. I'm planning to pass my position to you. What do you think?"
I was caught off guard by hearing these words. I almost spit out the tea I had just drunk in one breath, and my face showed a look of surprise.
I am just a little outsider who has just arrived in this village for a few days. What qualifications do I have to be the leader of a village?
Seeing the serious expression on the other person's face when he said these words, I couldn't help but wonder in my heart what was going on.
Maybe the other party said this just because he wanted me to fight with all my heart this time, but I have no intention of becoming a leader at all.
I shouldn't belong here in the first place, so how could I possibly be trapped in a small village and become the leader? It's ridiculous to think about it. While thinking about it in my heart, I politely declined:
"I absolutely cannot agree to this. Don't worry, I will do my best in this battle and will definitely win."
After hearing my solemn promise, the leader's eyes lit up and he said:
"I know you are a very reliable young man. Since you refuse to accept my chief's invitation, I will marry my daughter to you."
The expression on the face of the leader of Xuyoushen Village looked so natural when he said these words, but such words really caused ripples in my heart.
I just refused to be the leader of this village, so how could I possibly marry someone here? I already have someone else in my heart.
