As expected, this is the case of ignorance and boldness.
Zhou Ying looked indifferent. "That snake has already run away. I absolutely cannot stop collecting firewood because of a snake, right?"
This is her favorite thing to do, which is to pile up the firewood at home. With firewood in hand, she has no worries in winter, even if there is a heavy snow in the next month, she is not afraid.
Even now, her husband won't let her go, and her grandmother won't let her go either, which makes her so anxious that she's scratching her head. She's afraid that all the firewood will be picked up by others, what will happen?
"Is the path you took to collect firewood easy?"
Liu Liang supported her chin on the armrest of the wheelchair.
"It's easy to walk on. It's quite easy to walk on." Although Zhou Ying didn't know why Liu Jing asked this, she still answered Liu Jing's question honestly, "That road is easier to walk on than the village roads. Although it's a little narrow, it's very flat and there's no big slope. It may be because there are so many people walking on it, so the road is relatively flat. As long as you don't go up the mountain, you can stay at the foot of the mountain. It's very convenient to go back and forth."
Not to mention her, even the three or four-year-old children in the village often go there. As for the adults in the village, they are much more powerful. They will go to the mountains to chop trees, which is much faster than picking new firewood.
For example, the adults in Li Xiaodong's family are good at chopping trees. As long as they chop down a tree, they will have enough firewood to burn for the whole winter. Unfortunately, it is not the case in their family. Their grandparents cannot chop trees, and she is young and weak, so she cannot chop trees either. They can only pick up a little every day, which is just enough. But now they still don't have enough firewood for the winter.
"Can I come over then?"
Liu Jing tapped the armrest of the wheelchair lightly, and then touched her injured leg.
It really was the leg that held her back.
"Hey, sister is going?"
Zhou Ying thought about it seriously and said, "Actually, I can go. I can help my sister push the wheelchair. My sister can just stay at the foot of the mountain. If we don't go up the mountain, the wheelchair will be easy to move."
"Then tell your grandma and we'll go over and take a look tomorrow."
Liu Liang calculated the time and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Although it was still bright outside, it got dark very quickly in winter. It would be dark in less than half an hour.
Obviously, now is not a good time.
"Then I'll go talk to grandpa and grandma."
Zhou Ying said that wind would bring rain, and ran back home directly. After a while, she ran back and said that her grandparents allowed her to go, but she had to be careful and not go up the mountain.
It is also possible that Aunt Zhou has been really annoyed by her granddaughter recently. She has to go collect firewood every day, and the noise makes everyone in the family feel annoyed. It just so happens that Liu Liang also wants to go.
Her legs were not convenient, and she couldn't go too far. Maybe she just wanted to spread the word, so it was good for Zhou Ying to follow her. At least, there was someone to talk to her, which was better than her being alone. What if she encountered a snake again?
The snake has now become a nightmare for everyone in the village.
There haven't been any poisonous snakes in their village for a long time. Who would have thought that there would suddenly be one? The villagers are afraid to go into the mountains for fear of encountering a poisonous snake. The village doctor is not here now, so what should they do if they are bitten by a snake? Wouldn't they be waiting to die?
Obviously, they haven't thought of Liu Liang yet. Even though it was Liu Liang who saved Zhou Ying, and even though Liu Liang said he was a doctor, most people still wouldn't believe it. Liu Liang was only in her twenties, how could she be comparable to the village doctor?
As for why Zhou Ying was able to survive, it is also possible that it was because the bite was not deep, so the snake venom was finally eliminated.
Regardless, it had indeed been a long time since anyone had gone up into these deep mountains.
Zhou Ying was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night because she could finally go to the mountains to collect firewood. When she came to Liu Jing's place, she also had two big dark circles under her eyes. Liu Jing, on the other hand, had been sleeping quite well recently.
She was very calm, so her complexion was also good. She was not like Zhou Ying, whose face was originally pale, and now she had two dark circles under her eyes.
"Sister, let's go now."
Liu Liang originally wanted to read a few more pages of the book, but Zhou Ying was getting a little impatient. When she saw Liu Liang take out the book, she quickly grabbed the book from her hand and put it on the table.
"The wind blew all night last night, so there must be a lot of firewood outside today, so we have to go early in the morning. If we go too late, it will have been picked up by others."
"All right."
Liu Liang didn't care. She had to go anyway, so it didn't matter whether she went sooner or later.
Although, she actually still wanted to turn a few more pages of the book, she was just reading something interesting.
Seeing that Liu Liang agreed, Zhou Ying pushed the wheelchair without hesitation and pushed Liu Liang outside. Liu Liang's legs were covered with a thin quilt, and she was wearing a pair of thick cotton shoes on her feet. She also secretly held a thermos in her arms, so even though she was sitting quietly without any exercise, she was not cold at all.
As expected, they had left too early. Now, only she and Zhou Ying were at the corner of the mountain. They met a few villagers on the way, and they all talked about Liu Liang for a long time, which made Zhou Ying so angry that she wanted to take something and cover Liu Liang's head.
Liu Liang didn't care. She continued to do what she was supposed to do and was not affected at all.
"Son, what do you think of that? It's very pretty, and the baby you'll have in the future will be pretty too."
Among them, there was a family that fell in love with Liu Liang at first sight. In fact, not only their family, but many families in the village fell in love with her at first sight. But what's the use of falling in love? It's just talk.
The son of this family is also an old bachelor. He is in his thirties and has never married. He is not good-looking, his family is poor, and he has a lot of foreign debts. No one likes to marry in the village. Even if they do marry, they will not choose their family. Not only can they not give a betrothal gift, but they also have to pay off the debts. So, he has been dragged into a bachelor, and he has gloriously joined the ranks of old bachelors in the village.
The bachelor's son stole a glance at Liu Liang, with that cold and indifferent look on his face. He looked so scared, and remembered what another old bachelor secretly told him about this woman who was married and liked to beat men. He said that she could split a brick in half with one hand. If they really got into a fight, their whole family would not be able to beat him with one hand.
Now no one dares to attack that person for fear of being beaten to death.
Of course he didn't dare.
He is so thin, how could he be beaten? It is obvious that the woman is not someone to be trifled with.
