Zhuzhu ran to the kitchen, hugged and kissed her aunt, and got a chicken leg. Then she ate the delicious food and ran to find her mother.
"Mom, mom! Auntie has made some chicken soup and wants Zhuzhu to bring it up the mountain for big brother to drink!"
Yang Lihua came to her senses, quickly put the round pendant into her purse, and then went out.
"Okay, let's go up the mountain now."
Tai Jizu was worried, and since his second and third brothers were at home today, he decided to go with his wife and daughter.
Seeing this, He Shan finally sent two veterans to follow to guard against any danger on the road.
The cabin on the mountain is also bustling with activity at this moment.
Breakfast was porridge cooked by the old man, heated up steamed buns sent from home yesterday, and a plate of pickles.
It’s ok for a group of young and old to eat like this, but it’s a bit complicated for patients.
So the old man thought about going to the mountains and hunting some game. Even if there wasn't a big catch, pheasants and rabbits would be enough to satisfy his hunger.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue were eager to follow suit, and even Chen Ruiyang wanted to try out his new slingshot skills!
The big black horse attentively surrounded the white horse wife, sometimes shouting that there was fresh green grass here, sometimes wagging its tail to drive away mosquitoes for its wife, and busying itself with its lips turning up, showing its big white teeth. It looked so shameless, it was really unbearable to watch!
Hengqi is holding an axe and chopping firewood, which is very useful for cooking and burning fire.
Another veteran took a bucket to the stream to fetch water for everyone to use.
The injured young man felt sore all over from lying down, so he propped himself up and sat up, looking and listening through the window, feeling a little dazed.
He thought he was going to die this time, but unexpectedly he was saved.
This family looked a little strange. The old man was not arrogant, the children were naughty but well-behaved, and the two veterans were like servants but not servile or fawning.
Strictly speaking, the old ones don’t look like old, the young ones don’t look like young ones, the masters don’t look like masters, and the servants don’t look like servants!
But they get along very harmoniously, with laughter coming from all the time, as if everything in front of them makes them very happy and happy!
This wooden house is obviously very small and shabby, and it is obviously located in the mountains, but it is more attractive than a bustling city...
Tai Yonglu tied his sleeves and trouser legs tightly, jumped a few times on the spot, and shouted, "Grandpa, why are we leaving? I'm ready!"
Before the old man could respond, he heard the barking of dogs coming from the path leading down the mountain.
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue looked at each other, both with frustrated expressions.
It’s over, it must be my mother (aunt) coming!
Chen Ruiyang had already trotted over to meet them, and soon picked up Yang Lihua and Zhuzhu, followed by Tai Jizu who was carrying a basket.
As soon as Zhuzhu entered the yard, she ran into the house to see her injured older brother.
Yang Lihua asked the old man, "Dad, how have you been these past two days?"
"Everything is fine. It's very quiet during the day and at night." The old man waved his hand, signaling them not to worry, and then asked about what was happening in the city.
Yang Lihua agreed to all of them, then took out her black round pendant and whispered, "Dad, I want to ask this young man if he knows my cousin..."
The old man nodded and said, "Go ahead. You don't have many relatives here. It would be even better if they were relatives."
Yang Lihua was grateful and bowed to the old man.
The young man in the room looked either rich or noble. According to most people's thinking, he must be trying to get some benefits by marrying into the family, but she had no such intention.
She simply wanted to know the whereabouts of her cousin. After not seeing her for so many years, she wondered if she was doing well...
The young man was talking to Zhuzhu. Zhuzhu brought some snacks from the city and gave the young man a piece of butterfly cake. As he ate, she urged him, "Big brother, eat this! This is the snack Sister Min gave me. It's delicious! Sweet and crispy! After you eat this, your injury will stop hurting!"
The young man found it funny and nodded after taking a bite, which made Zhuzhu shake her head with joy.
The young man reached out to wipe the snack crumbs from the corner of the fat girl's mouth. The fat girl smiled with her big eyes curved, and took out an oil-paper bag from her purse, which contained peach preserves.
"Big brother, mother bought you some bitter medicine. Zhuzhu brought you this. Put it in your mouth after you drink the medicine. It tastes sweet!"
The young man didn't expect the fat girl to be so thoughtful, and he couldn't help feeling warm in his heart.
At this time, the old man came in with Yang Lihua and Tai Jizu, and the young men nodded in greeting.
The old man quickly greeted him, "Don't be polite, be careful of the wound."
Tai Jizu also smiled innocently and waved his hands helplessly.
Instead, Yang Lihua sat on the edge of the kang, looked at the young man carefully, and then asked a question.
"May I know your surname, sir?"
A hint of vigilance flashed in the young man's eyes, and he replied, "My surname is Huang. Zhuzhu just said that Madam helped me get some medicine. Thank you very much!"
Yang Lihua shook her head. "It's all my fault. I bought some on my way into the city."
She hesitantly took out the black round pendant and said, "I wonder if your mother's surname is Yang and her maiden name is Chunfang?"
The young man suddenly sat up straight, his face pale with pain, but he immediately touched his chest. Perhaps he found that his round pendant was still there, and his face looked a little better.
But he stared at the black round pendant in Yang Lihua's hand with suspicion and asked, "Madam, where did you get this round pendant? And why are you asking about my mother's name?"
Yang Lihua did not hide anything and simply told the story clearly.
"Mr. Huang, when I came here the day before yesterday, you looked very familiar. Then the black round pendant you were wearing fell out of your neck, and Zhuzhu found it and played with it. I took a closer look, and then I remembered that I also have a round pendant that looks similar.
