The result, of course, was --
The drunkard was beaten up by the Miao people and then thrown out of the Miao village.
The key point is that they fought in front of the military and police.
Sure enough, those Miao people who beat people up the night before last are now guarding the firewood at the entrance to the mountain road.
When Director Duan saw the Miao people with their Miao knives gleaming at their waists, looking fierce and menacing, and already raising their hands to signal them to stop, he tensed up completely.
"Mu Duo, are you sure your house is really inside here?"
Duoduo heard the teacher's voice trembling slightly, and she quickly nodded.
Then, amidst the tension of Director Duan and his colleagues, the car window was rolled down.
“Hehe--Uncle, it’s me!” Duoduo said in Mandarin.
The sturdy Miao woman was taken aback and replied in Mandarin, "Duoduo? Is that you? They are—"
"The person next to me is my teacher, the person driving is Director Duan, and the female teacher in the passenger seat, Teacher Mo, is her colleague."
"So you're inviting your teacher to your home?"
Duoduo nodded, and the uncle immediately told the Miao people in front to move the roadblocks away. Then he said to Director Duan, who was driving, "Drive slowly, don't get too close to the side, the road is slippery."
"Thanks!"
Director Duan felt flattered, because they hadn't seen any Han Chinese people overcome this hurdle in recent days.
But when they asked Duoduo which row of houses was on the mountainside, they were surprised by what she said.
"My home is on the mountaintop."
Mountain top?
Director Duan's hand gripping the steering wheel trembled, and the steering wheel wobbled slightly.
You should know that they've been listening to those wealthy businessmen chat a lot these past two days.
Regardless of whether what you hear is true or false, the fact that the entrance to the mountain is so strictly controlled shows that the Miao people who can build stilted houses here must have a high status in the Miao Sacred Fruit Forest.
Especially that small area near the top of the mountain, that's practically the core Miao people of the Sacred Fruit Forest.
But Mu Duo's family lives on the mountaintop, so wouldn't that mean---
After driving past the mountainside, Director Duan asked, "Mu Duo, is your family also involved in cultivating the orchard?"
"Yes, my brother owns shares!"
Does Mudo have shares?
Director Duan was startled.
Teacher Shen asked, "Mu Duo, didn't you just say your home is in a Miao village on the other side of the mountain?"
“Yes! My family is from that village, but my brother built a stilted house on the mountaintop, so he brought me to live up here.”
Upon hearing this, Teacher Shen couldn't help but think of the young man with dark skin, and naturally, she also thought of Duoduo's sister-in-law.
She was a talented woman from Tsinghua University; she was absolutely at the peak in both appearance and temperament.
but--
They soon arrived at the mountaintop, and Duoduo urged Director Duan to go up, which made Director Duan quite agitated.
He had heard that the owners of the newly built stilted houses in this small area closer to the mountaintop were among the biggest figures in the Miao orchards.
But they had already surpassed it, and they still wanted to go up.
"Muduo--"
"Director Duan, keep going forward, don't stop. My uncles and the others say it's hard to start on a slope in this kind of weather. Keep going up, there's a parking lot on the left, drive in and park your car there."
This small parking lot contains only a few small trucks used by orchards to transport fruit down the mountain, and two identical large SUVs.
The key is the license plate!
Guizhou A has five sixes, Guizhou A has five eights.
Director Duan has seen a lot in the provincial capital.
He was of high status, so he knew what the license plate meant.
As for Ms. Shen and the other female teacher, they might not have been as shocked as Director Duan, but they were still frightened.
"Mu Duo, did you come in this car today?" Teacher Shen asked.
"yes!"
Director Duan asked, "So, are these two cars yours?"
"My brother and sister-in-law each drive one car!"
"Your brother and sister-in-law's car?"
Director Duan was frightened again.
Duoduo pulled Teacher Shen along, leading them out of the parking lot and uphill for about two hundred meters. Then, pointing to the imposing stilted building on the right, she said:
“My home is right here, next to an orchard. Uncles, brothers, and aunties are always coming and going.”
Upon hearing this, the three were once again shocked.
What's shocking isn't just the magnificent stilted building, but also its location.
This is the undisputed king of Miao fruit orchards, according to those wealthy businessmen.
It was also the stilted building that they saw as soon as they arrived at the mountainside of Quedongzhai, which looked like it was floating in the clouds.
More importantly, they had heard from some wealthy individuals that the Miao holy maiden lived up here.
Could it be--
Is Mu Duo a Miao holy maiden?
Clearly, Director Duan and Teacher Shen were thinking the same thing.
The group exchanged glances, their gazes naturally falling on Duoduo, who was holding onto Teacher Shen.
At this time--
As we approached the magnificent stilted house, the sound of lusheng (a traditional reed pipe instrument) filled the courtyard.
The most beautiful Miao girl greeted them in her finest attire.
The women, holding cow horns and offering wine at the door, sang Miao songs.
Lyrics: If you, honored guest, enter the door, first drink a bowl of wine to welcome you; drink this bowl and you're a friend, if you don't, you can't leave.
Teacher Shen and Director Duan knew about the Miao people's welcoming wine ceremony the day they arrived, but even so, they couldn't help but accept the ox horn.
That's good, I've drunk it all.
"Teacher Shen, don't touch the horn cup, you can't touch it!" Duoduo quickly reminded her.
During the welcoming ceremony, the other girls sang and danced.
Singing folk songs, their voices were crisp and melodious, and their tunes were gentle and warm.
After being stopped at the door and drinking—
Amo stepped forward with an elegant gesture, saying, "Welcome, Teacher Shen and your two distinguished guests to our home. I am Duoduo's sister-in-law, Tang Mo. Please."
