When we arrived at the middle-aged man's hut, we discovered that there were many herbs drying in his yard.
He is a local farmer and sometimes goes to the nearby mountains to collect herbs.
"Young man, I don't see your faces. You are probably not from here!"
After helping Lu Sheng treat his wound, the middle-aged man sat aside and started talking to him.
Lu Sheng looked at the wound on his hand and said, "We are from Chengjia Village."
"Chengjiazhai?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then you should be from your mother's family!"
Lu Sheng frowned, "Uncle, do you know her?"
Qin Shuang, who was standing aside, also heard his father's name and couldn't help but look at the middle-aged man.
Seeing Lu Sheng asking, the middle-aged man said, "Yes, I am his uncle from his mother's side. I was there when her family held a wedding banquet."
"Then do you know how she is now? Is she still alive?"
When Lu Sheng heard the middle-aged man say that he was a relative of his mother's family, he hurriedly asked.
Feeling excited, he looked at Qin Shuang beside him unnaturally, but Qin Shuang did not react much.
Seeing that Lu Sheng was so worried about 㟧ya, the middle-aged man couldn't help but ask, "Are you familiar with 㟧ya?"
Lu Sheng and Qin Shuang looked at each other, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
Seeing that Lu Sheng didn't say anything, the middle-aged man sighed and said, "I don't know either. I only heard that after her mother married her to Niu, her father died not long after. Niu sold the house in the village, drove the cows and took the girl to the town, and he hasn't been here for a long time!"
Lu Sheng frowned and stared at his arm with unfocused eyes, feeling vaguely uncomfortable.
For his daughter, his feelings were more of a childhood affection, but he was also worried that she would not grow up well, and he would feel guilty about that.
Seeing that the two did not speak for a long time, the middle-aged man glanced at them and asked, "What about you? Why did you come here?"
Seeing that Lu Sheng didn't respond, Qin Shuang smiled and took over the conversation, "We came here to herd cattle, and we went up the mountain because we wanted to eat fruit!"
"Oh!" The middle-aged man said "Oh" and didn't ask any more questions.
The grassland here is fertile, and many people from other villages come here to drive cattle.

On the way home, Lu Sheng didn't say a word.
Qin Shuang seemed to see that he was feeling heavy in his heart, so he started the conversation, "Are you worried about me?"
Lu Sheng stared at her, looked away, and nodded slightly, "Yeah, I'm a little worried about her!"
He had no intention of hiding it.
This matter has always been a knot in his heart.
Qin Shuang pursed her lips, she knew that he couldn't let go of her, even though there was no love between men and women, after all, they grew up together.
Now that she's getting married quietly, he really has some thoughts.
"If you are worried, just go and have a look. Watching her live her life will put your mind at ease!"
Qin Shuang gave him some advice.
Lu Sheng looked at her in surprise, and after a while asked, "Aren't you jealous?"
Qin Shuang lowered his head and said softly, "I have no reason to be jealous. You and him already have a relationship, and I can't compare!"
Although she said this, she always felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
Lu Sheng looked away, a trace of disappointment flashed across his eyes. He lowered his head and whispered, "I know!"
