Chapter 68 Looking for Someone
Aunt Mao is illiterate and cannot use any elegant words.
I just felt that the girl in front of me had skin as white and tender as tofu, and her looks were unmatched in the surrounding villages.
Although she was wearing a coarse cloth gown, her demeanor was outstanding. She didn't look like a girl raised in the countryside at all, but rather like a young lady from a wealthy family.
Aunt Mao thought of Old Man Ti's appearance and couldn't help feeling suspicious. Is this really his relative?
Ti Ayun introduced Qi Yue, "Ah Man, this is Aunt Mao, the wife of our village chief. It's not easy to apply the medicinal wine to the bruises on your body by yourself, so I asked Aunt Mao to help you apply it."
Qi Yue was stunned. He was calling her. Well, it was her fault for forgetting to tell the two brothers her name.
Qi Yue smiled sweetly at Aunt Mao: "Then I'll trouble you, Aunt Mao."
Then he told Ti'ayun, "Your brother has gone out hunting."
When Aunt Mao saw that smile, her heart suddenly accelerated and her old face turned a little red. This girl looks so beautiful when she smiles!
The sound is as pleasant as that of the lark!
Emma, if she were a young man, she would have been completely bewildered by her.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Tiayun beside her.
As expected, the man had already been knocked unconscious.
Qi Yue smiled, and Ti Ayun also smiled foolishly, her ears turned red.
Aunt Mao had originally been thinking of arranging a marriage for this girl, but now she gave up the idea.
She was not like those people in the village who were so hostile to the two brothers of the Ti family. She had watched these two children grow up since they were young.
The eldest brother, Ti'alao, often went hunting and would send some meat to her family from time to time.
The second child, Ti Ayun, was literate and often helped her family write letters to her youngest son who was working outside.
Both brothers are well-behaved, sensible and kind.
Aunt Mao had introduced girls to the two brothers before, but those girls were shy and timid when they saw the men. However, when they were told about the brothers' family conditions, they all refused.
Now that's great, if the girl from old man Ti's distant relative can marry one of the two brothers, wouldn't that be a closer relationship?
Besides, she saw that this girl didn't look like the kind of person who would despise the poor and love the rich.
It is estimated that the Ti family will have a wedding soon, and the spirit of old man Ti can rest in peace in heaven.
Thinking of this, Aunt Mao's smile became even brighter.
She enthusiastically took a set of linen women's clothes from the basket and sat on the kang.
"Miss Ah Man, this is my little daughter's dress. You can wear it for now. It's not convenient to wear a man's long gown."
Qi Yue took the linen shirt. The material was quite rough, but the stitches on the shirt were very fine, and it was obvious that the person who made the shirt was very careful.
Aunt Mao saw that Ti Ayun was still stupidly staying in the house and didn't go out, so she laughed and teased, "What are you doing here, kid?"
"I'll go out right now, I'll go out right now..." Ti Ayun reacted, quickly put the medicinal wine on the wooden table, touched his head and walked out.
After the door was closed again, Qi Yue took off his gown with the help of Aunt Mao. There were many bruises on his smooth body, including his knees and elbows, and especially on his shoulder blades and lower back hips, which were particularly serious.
Her skin is delicate to begin with, and any slight bump would leave bruises.
Aunt Mao couldn't help but said with concern: "My dear, my girl, how did you get into this situation? You fell so badly, it's pitiful. It hurts me just looking at you..."
"The rest of the body isn't that serious, but my lower back and waist will be very painful after I apply the medicated wine. Just bear with it, or it won't heal."
Qi Yue looked at Aunt Mao's eager look and swallowed a little fearfully.
I don't know why, but I could see a hint of excitement in her expression.
"Lie down." Aunt Mao poured some medicinal wine on her palm and rubbed it with her palm to warm it up. Seeing that Qi Yue was a little nervous, she comforted him, "Aunt will be gentle, don't be afraid."
Qi Yue nodded, made up his mind, and lay down on the kang.
However, the next moment, she regretted it...
There were horrifying screams coming from the house, and Ti Ayun was so frightened that she thought the people inside were being tortured alive.
Aunt Mao's voice came out: "It will be fine soon, girl, just bear with it for a while, just bear with it for a while..."
When Qi Yue put on his clothes again, he felt so painful that he lay on the kang without moving.
Aunt Mao was sweating from rubbing her face. This girl was too afraid of pain. Her miserable cries made her think she was doing something utterly heartless.
As soon as the door opened, Ti Ayun came over eagerly, looking as nervous as his own wife giving birth.
"Aunt, is Ah Man okay?"
Aunt Mao waved her hands and said, "It's okay. She's just a little afraid of the pain. She's lying on the kang to recover now."
"That's good, thank you for your help, Auntie..." Ti Ayun sent the person to the door, then remembered something, "Auntie, please wait a moment."
After saying that, he ran to the kitchen and took out the wild rabbit meat that Ti A Luo had brought back last night.
Ti Ayun: "Aunt, please take this rabbit meat back. I am really sorry to bother you today."
Aunt Mao pretended to be displeased, pushed the meat back, and said in a low voice: "You silly boy, why don't you keep the meat for the girl and give it away? Don't you want to get married?"
"This girl is obviously from a wealthy family. How can she endure hardship?"
Ti Ayun didn't expect that her little thoughts were so obvious and were exposed at once, and her face turned completely red in an instant.
He stuttered as he spoke: "Auntie... I... my brother will... bring back some meat today... we are not short of meat... you can... just take the meat back..."
Hearing what he said, Aunt Mao no longer refused: "Okay, I'll come again at this time tomorrow. This medicinal wine must be rubbed for at least three consecutive days."
Ti Ayun: "Okay, thank you for your help, Auntie. Please take care."
On the other side, An Ze and the other two kept waiting for Lin Xu and Qi Yue to come back, but they couldn't wait any longer and went to ask the villagers.
It was not until the moon rose that the three of them climbed to the top of the back mountain.
An Ze shone the torch around and what he saw was a man in black with a broken hand and his eyes open.
The three of them took two steps back in fright, but the next second they became worried again and anxiously looked for Lin Xu and Qi Yue.
Finally, the unconscious Rinxu was found on the edge of the cliff, along with another seriously injured and unconscious man in black.
Seeing that there was no trace of Qi Yue, An Ze thought about it and decided to take the man in black away as well, and interrogate him thoroughly after he woke up.
It would not be good to leave the body of the other man in black beside the solitary grave, so the three of them found sticks and stones and took great pains to dig a hole.
They buried the people on the spot and put rocks on top of them, then dragged the two unconscious people down the mountain.
