Chapter 197 Adventure

Hua Xiali was very moved after hearing this. He didn't expect that everyone's house could be preserved so well because of the old man. "Grandpa, you are really great, but aren't you afraid to live alone in the mountains? What if something happens and no one finds out? Why don't you go to the city and live with your wife and children?"

"When I was young, my wife died during childbirth, and the child is gone. I never remarried, so I don't have any children. I didn't move out because I was afraid that after I moved out, my wife wouldn't be able to find her way home." The eldest grandfather's voice sounded a little painful.

Hua Xiali was deeply distressed after hearing this and quickly apologized, "Master, I'm sorry..."

"It's okay." The eldest man shook his head, "My wife is very good, and I am happy to talk about my wife with everyone..."

Afterwards, the eldest master told Hua Xiali and Huo Beixi about him and his wife. The eldest master's wife was called Mo Jingchun and the eldest master himself was called Fang Juexia. Both names were very poetic and matched very well.

Mo Jingchun was betrothed by her family since she was a child. When she grew up, she married her childhood sweetheart under the arrangement of her parents. However, the sweetheart was a treacherous villain. When he was studying in the city, he found a woman in the city. After marrying Mo Jingchun, he left Mo Jingchun alone at home. He was unwilling to touch her, and was unwilling to give her a child, leaving her a widow.

In order to help Mo Jingchun, her parents-in-law gave her many suggestions, but this not only failed to make the man feel good about her, but pushed the man further away.

Two or three years passed like this. When Mo Jingchun witnessed her husband hugging another woman, she was driven completely crazy. Then she ran away and disappeared.

Then her husband announced to the public that she was dead and married that woman.

The young Mr. Fang went to the city for business. When he came back at night, he passed by a small cave and saw a pair of white little feet inside. He was frightened. Then he bravely entered the cave and saw a beautiful girl lying inside. This was Mo Jingchun.

Moved with compassion, he took Mo Jingchun home for treatment and care. His brother and sister-in-law were afraid of spending money, so Fang Juexia separated from the family and paid for Mo Jingchun's medical expenses and took care of him alone.

After Mo Jingchun's injury recovered, his spirit also returned to normal and he was no longer in the crazy state before. Then Fang Juexia went to Mo Jingchun's house to propose marriage.

Mo Jingchun's father was an old-fashioned man. He thought it was shameful for a woman to marry two men. He just treated Mo Jingchun as dead and didn't care about her affairs anymore. So Mo Jingchun married Fang Juexia in the Fang family.

After marriage, the two of them lived a loving and happy life. Fang Juexia only allowed Mo Jingchun to cook and clean at home, and did not allow her to work in the fields or bask in the sun.

Later, Mo Jingchun became pregnant. Fang Juexia was very happy. In order to let Mo Jingchun have something good to eat during the confinement period, he went into the mountains to hunt. However, he almost fell to his death. He was carried home unconscious. Mo Jingchun was stimulated and had a miscarriage, and then she had a difficult delivery, resulting in two deaths.

When Fang Juexia woke up, Mo Jingchun's seventh day of death had already passed. He didn't even see his lover for the last time, let alone see her off.

Afterwards Fang Juexia also went crazy, and spent many years in a daze until everyone was going to move away, then he regained his sanity. He was afraid that if he moved away, Mo Jingchun would not be able to find him, so he stayed and became a village caretaker, helping everyone look after the house while waiting for Mo Jingchun.

This is why the village looks like new.

He even changed the name of the village to 'Mo Jingchun Village' because he was afraid that he would forget his wife's name due to dementia. As long as he saw the village name, he would never forget it.

As Hua Xiali listened, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and his heart was choked with pain. He never thought that the old man still had such deep affection for him. He never thought that the old man had waited for him for decades, and even though he knew it was impossible to see him again, he was still waiting.

Suddenly she thought of something and her eyes widened. Maybe they would meet again. Aren't she and Huo Beixi also separated by fate? Isn't the story of Fang Juexia and Mo Jingchun a replica of her story with Huo Beixi?

Huo Beixi died young, and Mo Jingchun died young.

The eldest grandfather guarded the mountain village all his life, and she also spent her whole life in misery.

Perhaps the eldest master and Mo Jingchun will also have their own adventures.

However, Hua Xiali didn't say much, because this kind of thing really doesn't happen to everyone. After a hundred years, maybe they can meet somewhere else!

While eating, the eldest master said to Huo Beixi, "Men, you should be nicer to your wives. Don't regret it like me."

If he had not gone hunting that year, he would not have fallen and injured himself, and his wife would not have had a miscarriage in a panic and resulted in a premature birth, and she would not have left him so early.

I guess it's because she saw Huo Beixi's cold face and pursed lips, and she felt that he was difficult to get along with, and that he was not good to Hua Xiali. But Huo Beixi just looks like that, it doesn't mean he is that kind of person.

"I will follow your instructions, and I hope that Grandpa can wait for Grandma Mo one day." Huo Beixi said seriously.

The love of the older generation is really touching, a couple for a lifetime, unlike the young people nowadays who don’t understand love and even blaspheme love. Once they change their hearts, they say “I want to pursue true love” and hurt others without scruples.

After the meal, the eldest grandfather took out a photo that had been kept for decades. It was in black and white, and the people in the photo were blurry and unclear, but even from the blurry outline one could tell that Mo Jingchun, who took this photo decades ago, was stunningly beautiful.

Hua Xiali felt deeply disgusted and heartbroken when she thought of Mo Jingchun's childhood sweetheart. Since he already had someone he liked outside, he could have just not married her. But he ended up marrying her. After marrying her, he was irresponsible and made her a widow. He drove her crazy and even killed her. It was really vicious.

He could obviously refuse the marriage proposal. At most he would be scolded or beaten by his family. It was unexpected that a grown man could not even bear the consequences of such a small matter.

"Master Fang, can I ask what happened to Grandma Mo's scumbag ex-husband?" Hua Xiali thought to herself. If that scumbag was still alive, she would write him to death. How could he have children and grandchildren and live out his old age in peace? People like him don't deserve happiness.

The eldest grandfather looked up at the desolate scenery ahead and said, "He married the woman from the city, but not only did his family go bankrupt, but they also owed a lot of debts because the woman asked for a large dowry. In order to raise the dowry, their family suffered a great loss of vitality. But how could the woman endure the hard life in the mountain village? As soon as she got married, she made a fuss every day, making the family restless. Later, when the child was just born, an old man came and took the child away. It was at this time that everyone knew that this woman was a concubine of an old man, and he actually let down his wife for such a woman..."
