Ah Rong didn't hide anything and told them everything they knew.
At the end, A-Dong added, "Our Black Miao's A-Chen has really grown up. He was clearly afraid that the Holy Maiden would be taken away by other Miao people, and he clearly liked her very much, but he endured it and waited for the Drum Festival. He showed us uncles a strong appearance, which really made us feel sorry for him."
"I, Tang Arong, have never admired anyone in my life, but Ah Chen, the things he did while he was away were earth-shattering, and now that he's back, he doesn't show off or ask for credit, but instead..."
Uncle Arong said with shame, "On the contrary, I was so worried that I wouldn't be able to marry my Tang family girl that I almost crashed into that cliff ravine."
"Fortunately, he is a very skilled driver. If it were me, I probably would have already gotten off. If something had really happened, how would we explain it to everyone?"
Chief Mu's face was extremely grim. He immediately said to A Dong, "Go now and install guardrails along all the overhanging sections of the road tonight. Black Crow Village will pay for it."
“So you think Black Crow Village is rich? Do you think my Que Dong Village can’t afford it? Ah Rong, give the order right now to inspect all the cement roads and work on them together with Black Crow Village. Call in more people.”
"I understand, Father."
Chief Tang was also furious. He cursed, "Please have the clan elders tell all the Miao villages along the way to clean the road! If our Ah Chen suddenly comes here again, no one will be able to interfere with the next part of the plan."
Soon, with A-Zhuang's help, the old lady came down and went straight to the third floor.
After arranging things, Arong called Chief Tang aside and whispered, "Father, do you think we should tell Amo about this?"
"No, wait. Amo will be back in a couple of days. Besides, the nine elders have their own opinions, and Amo knows how to choose."
"But I only found out today that Ah Chen cares so much about his education. What if he..."
"If Achen retreats without a fight, then he is not the best match for my Miao Holy Maiden."
"Hopefully he won't be frightened by Yang Aze from Qingmiao Balong Ancient Village."
…
Pooh...
On the third floor, Mu Chen, who had just drunk the medicine, was panting heavily from the bitter taste.
Retreat without a fight?
Mu Achen would never be a coward.
He had just been thinking about this. So what if Yang Aze from Balong Ancient Village was a top student from a key university? Would he, a reborn person, be afraid of this rival in love?
"Brother, a little water will make it less bitter." A'duo hurriedly brought over a bowl.
Arui helped the old woman put on the bandages for Mu Chen.
The old woman sighed and said, "My child, I know your greatest suffering isn't what you say, but what's in your heart!"
“You’re only seventeen. Why did God make you suffer so much? You got injured and still went out of the province to find a better way for the orchard. Now that you’re back, you didn’t even say a word. At least you should let everyone know how hard you’ve worked for them.”
"Grandma, it doesn't really matter. In the end, I'm the one who earns the most. It's actually everyone who's helping me."
“Nonsense. It’s true that you earn a lot, but Grandma already asked Agan. You haven’t taken a single penny from the books from the beginning. On the contrary, you’ve been putting money into it.”
Ah Chen smiled and said, "Grandma, it's really nothing. As long as I make sure Duo Duo and A Rui are fed, the whole family won't starve!"
"Besides, I have some spare money, but other Miao people are different from me. Their expenses are greater than mine, so it is reasonable for them to take a portion of the money in advance."
Miao King?
The old woman's heart skipped a beat, and she poked Ah Chen's forehead, "You silly boy, if you hadn't taken Que Dong Village and Hei Wu Village with you, would these two villages have sprung up so quickly?"
"Don't think that Grandma doesn't know why you're helping Que Dong Village so much."
"But have you thought about it, Miao'er? If the Holy Maiden is forced by other circumstances to not give you the flower ribbon, will you still stay in the Miao village for the rest of your life?"
These words stumped Mu Achen.
At this moment, Ah Chen truly realized that the old woman was even more shrewd than he had imagined.
Because the old woman seemed to have read his mind.
Sure enough, his silence was followed by the old woman's next words, which made him tremble.
"Or are you saying that if you fail at the drum festival in a few days, you will choose to commit suicide and find a secluded place to end your life?"
"Grandma, my brother..."
Ado and Arui were frightened.
"You two sisters go out first. Grandma has something to say to your brother alone."
After Aduo and the others reluctantly left, the old woman said, "Miao'er, I've watched you grow up. I know what kind of person you are, but the changes in you over the past six months are too frightening."
"Perhaps this is fate, destined that you will still have the chance to find out where your mother is."
"My mother?"
"Yes, your mother didn't remarry; she just passed away quietly!"
Passed away?
Ah Chen was stunned!
The light that had just flashed in his eyes instantly dimmed.
He had previously thought that perhaps he should wait until he was more open-minded and able to accept things before looking for his mother.
Even if her mother remarried, at least she would know where her mother was.
But now, things have turned out that my mother has already passed away.
"Grandma, you're not lying to me?"
The old woman shook her head. "Only one or two aunties and old women know where your mother is buried."
“Aduo’s mother was someone your mother forced your father to steal before she died, because your father wanted to die with your mother.”
“But your mother was worried about leaving you alone in this world, so she asked your father to remarry after she passed away so that you could have a younger brother or sister, and that you could have a relative to accompany you for the rest of your life.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Chen's eyes reddened even more.
