Chapter 483: Entering the Mountains with an Oxcart

Song Shiwei quickly explained that they were going to look for someone and asked how to get there.

At this time, a young daughter-in-law came over. She looked like the daughter-in-law of the owner of this hotel. Song Shiwei had seen her yesterday. They were cooking in the kitchen on the first floor.

When I heard that they were looking for someone, I immediately laughed.

"It's just right. An old man named Wang will come to deliver some vegetables in a while. He will come with a bullock cart. You can take his cart to Koliwo first. Once you get there, you will be close to Kadazi Mountain. You will have to walk from then on. There are mountain roads there, which are not easy to walk on! And if it gets dark, it will not be safe in the mountains either."

Xinxin couldn't help asking, "Is there no bus here?"

The man shook his head after hearing this.

"Bus? No, look at this place, mountains upon mountains, let alone buses, even bicycles are not easy to navigate. We have to rely on our legs to climb the mountain roads! If we really have a lot of stuff, we can just take an ox cart, horse cart, donkey cart or something like that!"

Hearing her say this, Song Shiwei smiled and said, "Then please tell that old man Wang to take us to the Korelwo?"

As she spoke, she took out a silk scarf she brought from Pengcheng from her bag and handed it to her.

"This is for you. We brought it from Pengcheng!"

When the young wife saw it, she was extremely happy.

This scarf is so beautiful. It feels so soft to the touch, just like a cloud. Most importantly, the color is so bright and beautiful. They have never seen it in this small place.

There is nowhere to buy it.

She was about to reach out to take it, but seemed to think of something and quickly retracted her hand.

"Thank you, this scarf must be very expensive, right? I, I don't want it!"

Song Shiwei smiled, took her hand and stuffed the scarf into her hand.

"This scarf is not expensive. Besides, we have many more. This one is just a token of thanks for showing us the way!"

After hearing this, the young wife stopped refusing. After all, the scarf was really beautiful and she really liked it.

She could even imagine herself being taken out and being stared at by everyone.

But she was simple by nature, and although she accepted it, she was very grateful in her heart.

She blushed with embarrassment. Seeing that they were in a hurry to leave, she said quickly, "Thank you! I'll go and help you urge Old Man Wang now!"

Maybe the scarf really worked, because within two minutes of waiting, they saw the young wife leading an old man in his sixties, pulling a ox cart, coming over.

There was even an old mattress on his ox cart.

Song Shiwei knew as soon as he saw it that this must have been specially prepared by the young wife to express her gratitude.

Otherwise, the ox cart carrying the vegetables would never be clean enough.

And with this old mattress, they will have less bumps on the road.

At first, Xinxin couldn't understand why her mother would give a scarf to a stranger.

After all, that scarf wasn't cheap. Now I think I can understand a little bit.

Especially when Old Wang saw them, he smiled and said, "You are the relatives of Yang's daughter-in-law, right? Don't worry, I will definitely take you to your destination safely!"

Song Shiwei looked at the young wife, who was smiling and winking at her.

Song Shiwei was grateful. She didn't expect that she would say that they were her relatives. In this way, this old man Wang would not bully them because they were outsiders, and they would be safer on the road.

He helped Zhao Huili and Song Zhiyong get into the car first.

Only then did she go upstairs with Xinxin.

Before leaving, the young wife did not forget to give instructions to Old Man Wang.

"When we get to Koliwo, if it's too late, let them stay at your house first. There's nowhere to stay in the mountains at night, and it's not safe!"

Old Man Wang still relied on their guesthouse to make money, so he immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely arrange it!"

The young wife was determined.

As Old Man Wang shouted, he swung the whip in his hand hard on the cow's butt.

The ox cart started to move with a "clack clack" sound.

Although not too fast, it is still quite stable.

A series of "squeak! squeak!" sounds were left behind by the wheels.

This novel experience was something that not only Song Shiwei and Xinxin, but even Zhao Huili and Song Zhiyong hadn't experienced for a long time.

Although the mountain road is difficult to walk on and the dirt road has some gravel, the lush trees on both sides of the road and the pink, yellow, and purple unknown small flowers blooming in the fields add a lot of wildness to the journey.

Maybe Old Man Wang really thought they were relatives of the Yang family's daughter-in-law who worked in the guesthouse.

On the way, we got off the car and picked some wild fruits for them to taste.

Song Shiwei took a look and saw wild peaches, wild grapes, wild mountain plums, and even wild kiwis in the middle. They looked very similar to kiwis and tasted almost the same. The rest were some that she was not familiar with.

They should be some wild fruits unique to the area.

I don't know where Old Wang washed the wild peach, probably with spring water to remove the hairs on the outside. When I took a bite, it was crispy and sweet!

Xinxin ate it with great relish.

Zhao Huili and Song Zhiyong took one to taste it, but did not eat any more. After all, they were old and their teeth were not in good condition, and the wild peach was still quite hard.

Those wild grapes are sweeter than I imagined.

Although Old Man Wang only took special care of them out of respect for the daughter-in-law of the Yang family who worked at the guesthouse.

But Song Shiwei still took note of this good thing.

By the time they arrived at the den, it was already dark.

Old man Wang didn't let them go and asked his wife to clean up two rooms.

Their family is still quite prosperous. His two sons are married, and their two daughters-in-law have given birth to several children. There are also two daughters-in-law in the family. I heard from his daughter-in-law that the eldest daughter has just got engaged and will be married in October!

The little girl is still young, only eleven or twelve years old.

Her eldest daughter is about the same age as Xinxin. Song Shiwei asked and found out that she is even one year younger than Xinxin.

I didn't expect the kids here to get married so early.

People finish their meals early in the mountains. When they arrived, Old Wang's family had just prepared dinner and were just waiting for him to come back and eat!

At this time, I saw that he brought back so many people. Then I heard him say that they were distant relatives of Yang's daughter-in-law, and they came here to visit relatives.

He quickly asked his daughter-in-law to bring some more pairs of bowls and chopsticks.

It was rare to see outsiders dressed so well in the mountains. Not only did his sons, daughters-in-law, and daughters-in-law stare at Song Shiwei and the others, but there were also many villagers gathered outside the courtyard wall.

Lying on the wall, with his head exposed, he looked at them.

Zhao Huili and Song Zhiyong felt a little uncomfortable being stared at.

This was the first time they had encountered this scene.

Instead, Xinxin started chatting with the eldest daughter in their family.

The little girl is a bit introverted and blushes easily when she speaks. On the contrary, the second daughter in their family, despite her young age, may have spoken.
