Chapter 329 Testing Each Other
Except for Tongrui and Hongmei who were eating in the bedroom, everyone else was eating and talking around the campfire, and no one noticed that Wanquan had woken up.
Because Granny Hu estimated the time to be tomorrow morning, no one cared too much about Wan Quan's situation. After all, there was no danger to his life.
But they underestimated Wan Quan's willpower. Wan Xingmo's training of Wan Quan was a devilish one, otherwise Wan Quan would not have been able to grow so quickly within a year. This made Wan Quan have a stronger willpower than ordinary people.
He had been dealing with the enemy for a year and had learned to be more cautious in unfamiliar environments. So when he heard everyone around him speaking words that were unfamiliar to him, he did not open his eyes immediately, but continued to observe secretly.
After they had finished their meal, Hongmei came out to deliver the tableware and told Aunt Li, "Aunt Li, Madam told you to cook the meat porridge and feed it to him while it's still hot."
"Okay, I got it, I'll be right there."
Aunt Li hurriedly ate the last bite of the barbecue, wiped her hands on her apron, and went to see how the meat porridge in the pot was cooking.
As soon as the lid of the pot was opened, the unique aroma of meat porridge immediately spread out. Wanquan, who had been hungry for several days, couldn't help but feel his stomach growling. The sound was particularly clear in the narrow space.
Especially Anan, who was closest to Wanquan. His hearing was better than that of ordinary people. As they were close to each other, he was the first to hear Wanquan's stomach growling and realized that this man had woken up.
"Young man, are you awake? If you are, open your eyes. It's time for dinner."
Wan Quan saw that he could no longer pretend, so he slowly opened his eyes. What he saw was a group of strong men. They were dressed strangely, and their clothes did not look like those of Da Qi people. Instead, they looked more like those of Beiliang people.
Wan Quan was a little nervous. Could it be that he had fallen into the hands of the Beiliang people? Then why was he not dead yet?
Wan Quan lowered his eyes and looked at the clothes he was wearing. The style was the same as theirs. Could it be that they saved him?
At this time, everyone was staring at Wan Quan, with scrutiny in their eyes, which made Wan Quan feel a little uncomfortable, but he was more concerned about where he was now. The young general was still waiting for him to bring people back, and he didn't know how long he had been unconscious. If the time was too late, it would be a disaster.
Wan Quan was extremely anxious, but he remained calm. He wanted to sit up, but as soon as he moved his body felt as if it were being pricked by needles. It hurt all over.
"Young man, you'd better not move. I just bandaged your wound. If you don't want the wound to split, just lie down obediently, otherwise you will bother me again. I have a bad temper and don't like being bothered often. If I have a bad temper, I will hit you hard. I'm afraid you can't bear it."
Wan Quan ignored Anan's warning and still sat up stubbornly. Sure enough, several wounds on his body had burst open, but Wan Quan was wearing cotton clothes, so his wounds could not be seen from the outside.
Anan smiled: "Okay, the boy has the same stubborn temper as me, but you are asking for trouble, why torture yourself? It's not good now, right?"
Anan spoke the Da Qi dialect, but his accent was not that of Da Qi, which meant that he was very familiar with Da Qi or had at least stayed there for quite some time.
Wan Quan had been secretly observing this group of people. Seeing that they did not speak with the Beiliang accent, he felt slightly relieved. As long as they did not fall into the hands of the Beiliang people, there was still hope.
"Thank you for saving me. May I ask what your name is, brother? Why did you save me?"
"My name is Anan, everyone calls me Brother Nan, you can also call me Brother Nan, I didn't want to save you, one more wounded person in such weather would be very troublesome for our caravan, it was our wife who was kind and found that you were still alive, so she saved you."
"Madam? Where are you from? I hear your accent doesn't sound like Beiliang people, nor does it sound like Daqi people, but you can speak Daqi Mandarin, which means you often go to Daqi."
Anan glanced at Wanquan with appreciation, "Young man, you think quickly. We are from Yue country, and we follow my wife to do business all year round. Da Qi has half of my wife's business, so we go in and out of Da Qi all year round. It's normal for us to speak Da Qi's official language. If we want to do business with you Da Qi people, how can we not speak your Da Qi's official language?"
Hongmei had already entered the bedroom and reported to Tongrui: "Madam, the young man has woken up."
"Awake? So soon? Didn't you say you can only wake up tomorrow morning?"
Tongrui had just taken off her shoes and was about to go to sleep when Hongmei helped her up, put on her shoes and hurried out.
Wan Quan only felt a figure appear at the bedroom door. He looked up inadvertently and was stunned on the spot.
Why does this person look so familiar? I seem to have seen him somewhere before?
But it was impossible? She was obviously from Vietnam. He had never seen a Vietnamese, nor had he ever dealt with a Vietnamese. How could he possibly know a Vietnamese?
But this familiar feeling was really strange. Wan Quan stared at Tong Rui's face for a long time until he heard a cry: "You bold scoundrel, how dare you be so rude."
Hongmei was standing aside and when she saw Wanquan staring at her wife, she immediately became angry and spoke in a very unfriendly tone.
Wan Quan knew he was being rude, so he lowered his eyes and apologized: "Madam, please forgive me. I offended you so much. Thank you for saving my life."
"I think it's useless to save you. If I had known you were such a playboy, I should have left you in the snow to die."
Hongmei was still angry and scolded Wanquan.
Tong Rui stared at Wan Quan, not knowing what she was thinking. Then she raised her hand to stop Hong Mei from making things difficult for her. Instead, she asked Wan Quan with a smile, "Young Master, you were staring at me just now. Did you think I looked familiar? That's why you behaved so rudely?"
Wan Quan was surprised for a moment, this woman was so smart, but he regained his composure immediately and replied calmly, "Madam, you misunderstood. I often hang out with men and have never seen a woman as beautiful as you. I was so shocked that I lost my mind. Please forgive me, Madam."
Tong Rui laughed out loud. She was different from ordinary girls. Her knowledge and wisdom were different from those of ordinary people. Seeing that Wan Quan was unwilling to admit it, she did not continue to ask. It was obvious that the other party was very vigilant. If she wanted to get something out of him, she had to take it slow and ask indirectly.
In fact, just when Tongrui asked Wanquan if he looked familiar, a pair of big eyes that were exactly the same as Tongrui's suddenly flashed through Wanquan's mind. That was the little Fubao that he thought about every day.
Wanquan was able to survive the past year in large part due to the jade pendant given by Xiao Fubao. It was the only item he brought from his hometown and it embodied all his longing for his hometown. Whenever he saw the jade pendant, he could not help but think of Xiao Fubao and his family. The belief of returning home in glory has always kept him going.
So Wan Quan thought of Xiao Fubao's big eyes at that moment, which were exactly the same as the person in front of him.
As long as you find the commonalities, it is not difficult to find other similarities. It can be said that little Fubao is a smaller version of the beautiful woman in front of you.
Wan Quan, who was used to being cautious, did not dare to answer Tong Rui's questions easily, so he chose to conceal it and wait and see the other party's intentions first. He did not believe that the woman in front of him would be so kind as to save him for no reason.
Wan Quan subconsciously touched the jade pendant on his neck, and found that it was gone. He was instantly panicked.
