In the days that followed, Huo Nanquan stayed at Wang Xiaofang's house.
Wang Zhiguo was busy arranging a marriage for his son Wang Yuan and didn't pay much attention to Huo Nanquan.
Huo Nanquan basically followed Wang Xiaofang around like a puppy every day, going wherever she went.
When Wang Xiaofang went to work in the fields, he would catch crickets at the edge of the field and keep her company. When he saw that she was sweating, he would take out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat.
Watching Huo Nanquan like this, Wang Xiaofang felt more energetic when she started working.
After all, isn't this a form of companionship?
Moreover, Huo Nanquan stayed by his side the whole time. Although he was a bit simple-minded, all those who wanted to propose marriage to him stopped coming to his door.
In a way, it's also a form of protection for her.
Several women around, seeing this scene, all advised Wang Xiaofang, "Xiaofang, what's the point of you staying with a fool like this?"
"Exactly, what if he remains unconscious? Are you just going to keep going like this?"
"You should hurry up and find a good man to marry. You can't waste your youth like this anymore."
But Wang Xiaofang remained unmoved. "You don't understand. Even if I stay with him like this, I don't want to remarry."
Although Huo Nanquan didn't quite understand what they were saying, he knew it wasn't anything nice, and he would always step forward angrily, saying, "You're bad people. You're talking badly about me."
The aunties then stopped nagging.
Wang Xiaofang would always pat his head and say, "Silly boy."
That evening.
Wang Xiaofang was weeding in the field, while Huo Nanquan was catching crickets. Later, they saw a frog and went to catch it as well.
As a result, Wang Xiaofang was so engrossed in her work that she didn't notice Huo Nanquan was missing.
At that moment, an old bachelor in the village, having drunk some alcohol, came out for a stroll.
He watched Wang Xiaofang working in the field, with no one else around, and that idiot Huo Nanquan was nowhere to be seen either.
He then hatched a plan. He secretly took a rope and walked towards Wang Xiaofang.
He tackled her to the ground in an instant.
"Let me go..."
Wang Xiaofang struggled desperately, but to no avail.
The old bachelor tied her hands together.
"Hehe, now that there's no one around, you're mine, so just give in to me."
After saying that, he began to tear at her clothes.
"Help... Huo Nanquan..."
Wang Xiaofang desperately called out Huo Nanquan's name.
At that moment, Huo Nanquan was catching frogs by a pond not far away.
Then they heard Wang Xiaofang calling out.
He quickly dropped the frog and ran into the field.
"Let go of my wife."
Huo Nanquan went up to pull the old bachelor away, but the old bachelor was very strong and kicked him away.
Huo Nanquan was getting anxious; all he knew was that his wife was in danger.
He picked up a stone from the ground, stepped forward, raised it above his head, and smashed it down on the old bachelor.
The old bachelor was hit and instantly enraged.
He also picked up a stone and threw it at Huo Nanquan's head.
Huo Nanquan was instantly knocked unconscious.
Wang Xiaofang quickly stepped forward and hugged Huo Nanquan, "Huo Nanquan, how are you?"
The old bachelor was so frightened that he ran away immediately.
"Huo Nanquan, wake up quickly."
Wang Xiaofang was terrified, after all, Huo Nanquan had been hit on the head before and had become mentally impaired.
He got hit on the head again this time; I hope he's not going to die.
She called out for a while, but Huo Nanquan didn't respond.
She then carried him on her back and walked towards the village clinic.
The journey was fraught with difficulties, and Wang Xiaofang nearly collapsed several times.
But she still gritted her teeth and kept going.
What she didn't know was that Huo Nanquan, who was on her back, had already woken up in a daze.
By a twist of fate, the blow the old bachelor struck him actually dissipated the bruises. This, combined with the nourishment from the spiritual spring water he had been receiving recently, further contributed to the effect.
His memories returned...
He felt as if he had a long dream...
Recent memories kept flashing through his mind...
He looked at himself lying on Wang Xiaofang's back, and his memory flashed back to the year he went to the countryside.
That year, he sprained his ankle, and Xiaofang carried him to the clinic in the same way.
Tears streamed down his face without him realizing it, but his mind remained hazy, and he drifted off to sleep again.
"Doctor, he has injured his head again. Please examine him."
The doctor changed his dressing.
Huo Nanquan lay in the hospital bed, and Wang Xiaofang stayed by his side, not daring to sleep all night.
When Huo Nanquan woke up again.
Wang Xiaofang couldn't hold back any longer and lay on top of him.
Xiaofang.
He had remembered what had happened before, and he remembered how Wang Xiaofang had stayed by his side after he lost his memory and became mentally challenged...
This journey has been filled with trials and tribulations.
Huo Nanquan finally understood what it meant to cherish.
He held Wang Xiaofang's hand, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Wang Xiaofang felt something drip onto her hand. She rubbed her eyes and then realized that Huo Nanquan was awake.
"Huo Nanquan, you're finally awake. Does your head hurt? I'll go call him."
As a result, just as she was about to get up, Huo Nanquan grabbed her hand.
"Xiaofang, don't go..."
"Xiaofang?"
Wang Xiaofang looked at him in disbelief. He had just called her Xiaofang. Did he remember who she was?
“I remember now, Xiaofang. I am Huo Nanquan, your husband.”
Huo Nanquan burst into tears immediately.
"Huo Nanquan..."
Wang Xiaofang finally couldn't hold back any longer and immediately rushed over to hug him.
Huo Nanquan also hugged Wang Xiaofang tightly.
"Xiaofang, please forgive me for what I did before. Let's get back together, okay?"
Huo Nanquan has finally come to terms with his own feelings and truly wants to start over.
"But I..."
Wang Xiaofang hesitated, still somewhat bothered by Huo Nanquan's past relationship with Shi Yu.
Huo Nanquan knew what she wanted to say, so he took the initiative to say, "Actually, back then, Shi Yu and I only held hands, hugged, and kissed. We didn't sleep together... Xiaofang, I know it was wrong of me to cheat on you back then, but can you forgive me? My body is still clean."
"..."
Wang Xiaofang didn't know what to say.
Even though we've never slept together, just holding hands, kissing, and hugging is still pretty awkward.
"Xiaofang, please, forgive me."
Huo Nanquan knelt down on one knee, reached out and took her hand, kissed the back of her hand, and made a proposal gesture while looking at Wang Xiaofang.
Wang Xiaofang's gaze was sincere; it didn't seem fake.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded.
"good."
"That's great, Xiaofang."
Huo Nanquan immediately stepped forward, picked her up, and spun her around happily.
The two embraced and kissed happily, celebrating this hard-won happiness.
For Huo Nanquan, life had been smooth sailing, but he made a mistake and fell from heaven to hell. Fortunately, he finally realized who was more worthy of his appreciation.
A prodigal son who returns is more precious than gold.
He and Wang Xiaofang were destined to go through many hardships before finding happiness again.
