Chapter 21, Falling Down the Hill
Fortunately, not far from where she slid down, she found her hoe.
Limping, she went over and took the hoe.
She had high hopes for this ginseng and hoped that her loss was not in vain.
An hour later, An Qianqian finally dug out the ginseng.
At this moment, she heard a voice above her head.
"Is there anyone down there?" A man's voice came from above.
An Qianqian was very excited: "There are people, there are people." She thought they would have to wait until at least dark, but she didn't expect that Gou Wa and the others would bring reinforcements so soon.
"I'm down there, pull me up quickly, Gou Wa, Gou Wa." An Qianqian called Gou Wa excitedly twice.
Mao Jianwen was a little confused, but when he heard the word Gou Wa, he knew that the person below must be from his village.
Because Gou Wa is the youngest son of Aunt Yu in the village.
Mao Jianwen tied the rope on his body to a big rock, and then climbed down along the rope.
For some reason, he climbed down.
Under normal circumstances, he would definitely let the person climb up by himself.
When he came down, he saw such a beautiful scene: there was a servant in the snow, with a pretty face unlike any other in the world.
Mao Jianwen was stunned for a moment.
Before he could come to his senses, the woman started to shout at him with a smile: "Ah, why did you come down too? How are we going to go up later?" An Qianqian couldn't remember who this person was at all at this time.
I just thought that he came to save me, and I was so grateful that I was overwhelmed.
Mao Jianwen was brought back to his senses by her.
"It's okay. I'll go up first and then pull you up." Mao Jianwen jumped down the slope in a few steps, using his actions to cover up his stupidity.
When he came closer, An Qianqian finally recognized who he was.
There was a hint of embarrassment on his face, as if he had eavesdropped on someone's blind date.
Add to that the rumors from the villagers, well, she had fantasized about him.
"Then thank you for your help." An Qianqian said embarrassedly with her head down.
In her hand, she was holding a ginseng that she had just dug out. The ginseng was quite big and must be at least a hundred years old.
Of course Mao Jianwen also saw what she was holding, but he didn't ask any more questions.
However, when he saw the blood on the ground, he frowned and asked, "Are you hurt?"
When An Qianqian heard him ask this, she lowered her head and looked at her trouser leg. "It's okay, it's just a cut, it's not a serious injury."
She used the water from the mist, and now the wound is almost scabbing over.
But I dare not let anyone see it.
"Okay, be careful when you go up later. I'll go up first and pull you up later." Mao Jianwen's heart skipped a beat when he saw that she was injured.
The movements were also a bit faster than usual.
Soon, he climbed up the slope.
"Tie yourself up with a rope and I'll pull you up." Because she was injured, he didn't dare let her climb by herself.
An Qianqian moved quickly, because the wound was nothing serious except for the pain.
It's just that my ankle is sprained and it hurts a bit.
After moving over, she tied the rope around her waist and pulled it: "I'm fine."
Mao Jianwen lifted it up, and after feeling the weight, he slowly began to pull the man up.
While pulling, he also asked her if she was hurt.
That's so careful.
If there were outsiders around, they would notice that Mao Jianwen was blushing very hard.
Soon, An Qianqian was pulled up.
"Thank you." After standing up, she said to Mao Jianwen.
Mao Jianwen shook his head: "You're welcome, but how are you going to go back in this state now?" he asked with a frown.
An Qianqian really felt pain in the area where her leg was sprained. Going back such a long way was indeed a hassle.
Gou Wa and the others are still children, so they really can’t take her back.
She wasn't the shy person, and when she heard him ask this, she thought he wanted to be the good person.
"Well, could you please help me go back?" An Qianqian asked Mao Jianwen.
Mao Jianwen looked at her legs and said nothing.
But his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking.
An Qianqian knew that people in this era paid great attention to the separation between men and women, and her request was indeed not very good.
I will definitely meet people from the village when I go home, and it will be difficult to explain then.
"Or, you can take me down the mountain." There was no way, she couldn't go down the mountain by herself.
The mist water is not a magic water, it can't make her get better immediately, it doesn't hurt.
She didn't care, because she was very satisfied with Mao Jianwen's appearance and strength, but she was afraid that others would look down on her.
It would be bad if word got out that she was clinging to him, so it was okay for her to endure the grievance a little, but she must not let her mother get angry.
She could only let him help her down the mountain first.
Mao Jianwen didn't say much, he just squatted down in front of An Qianqian and said, "Come up, I'll take you home."
An Qianqian was stunned. Does this person really not understand or is he pretending not to understand? Please send her home and stop making trouble.
"Well, just take me down the mountain. Gou Wa and the others are right below. I can ask them to help me get back then." It hurts a little, it's better than people pointing fingers at you.
Seeing that she was still talking, Mao Jianwen turned around and looked at her, just in time to see her smooth chin.
Her skin is so nice, she doesn’t look like a village girl at all.
Seeing her frowning, she didn't say much, and directly pulled the person onto her back, "Let's go, the mountain is not safe."
I don’t know if this girl is so brave that she dares to go into the mountains on a snowy day.
There is also a group of people at the foot of the mountain. I will have to talk about them later. They are just little kids, but they dare to imitate adults and go up the mountain.
An Qian didn't know what he was thinking, but since she was already blamed for it, she didn't want to be pretentious.
At worst, I can just thank him after I get down the mountain.
Along the way, the two were very quiet. An Qianqian crawled on his back, feeling the strength on his back. She felt that such a broad back really made her feel safe.
I don’t know who will benefit from it in the future.
I started to fantasize in my heart.
Women, no matter their age, like to YY.
His steps were alternately deep and shallow, but he walked steadily, without causing any bumps to the person on his back.
He also deliberately avoided her injured foot.
When they reached the fork in the road where Gou Wa and the others met, An Qianqian patted Mao Jianwen on the shoulders twice and said, "Wait a minute, Gou Wa and the others are still over there." She pointed to the right side of the path.
Mao Jianwen was of course aware of the noise over there, "Just wait here, I'll go over and call them." As she walked further over, there was some deeper grass, which was not good for her feet.
Slowly and gently, Mao Jianwen helped the person off his back.
Let her sit on a slightly drier pile of grass.
"Well, thank you for your help." After An Qianqian sat down, she looked at Mao Jianwen and said with a smile.
Mao Jianwen was dazzled by her smile and looked away. He was afraid that if he looked at her again, he would...
"We are from the same village." Actually, when he first saw her, he did feel a little impulsive, but when he thought about his profession, he felt that he would not be a good husband.
Well, can you give the author some comments?
This stand-alone feeling is too lonely, hehe, please collect, vote and reward.
