Song Shiwei looked at Old Li, who had not slept at such an old age but was preparing medicine for Zhou Tingyue. The gratitude in his heart was beyond words.
If it weren't for them, he wouldn't have had to come in and take this risk.
These days, I have been traveling day and night without stopping, not daring to rest for a moment.
Speaking of which, he had quite a few minor wounds on his body, all of which were sustained while fighting with wolves.
But he didn't do anything about it himself, just sprinkled some medicine powder and continued on his way.
This made Song Shiwei think of her grandfather in her previous life.
When she was a child, she grew up with her grandfather in the countryside. At that time, her parents were busy with work and had no time to take care of her, so they sent her back to their hometown. She lived with her grandfather throughout her elementary school years.
Her grandfather is also a kind old man and is especially good to her.
No matter it was winter or summer, he insisted on sending her to school. Even when it rained heavily and he fell several times, he still insisted on going to school to bring her an umbrella.
Every time she came home from school, she could always see her grandfather looking at her from afar on the ridge of a field not far from the school.
He would wave and shout, "Nannan, Grandpa is here!"
Every time that happened, Song Shiwei would run towards him happily!
During holidays, he would take her to the trees to pick bird eggs and to the river to catch fish.
It can be said that that period of time was the happiest time for Song Shiwei.
Unfortunately, during the summer vacation after she graduated from elementary school, her parents took her back to the city. In addition, her studies became increasingly stressful, so she could only go back with her parents to see her grandfather during the holidays!
She still remembers the last time she saw her grandfather. It was during her senior year of high school. Her grandfather went to the mountains to pick her favorite wild strawberries. Who could have imagined that it suddenly rained heavily. On the way back, he rolled down the cliff. When the villagers found him, he was gone, but he was still holding tightly in his hand the bag of bright and juicy wild strawberries.
When Song Shiwei heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue.
She cried and begged her parents to take her back with them, as she couldn't believe that her grandfather was no longer with her.
When she returned to the city, she promised her grandfather that she would get into college and work hard to earn money so that he could live a good life.
In the future, she will buy a house and take him to live with her!
Sadly, this promise could never be fulfilled.
Walking on the muddy ground, I returned to the old house.
The house still looked the same as before, but grandpa could only lie on the cold bed, no longer breathing.
Especially when she heard that he fell off the cliff while picking wild strawberries for herself, Song Shiwei was so heartbroken that she could hardly breathe.
She rushed to her grandfather crying, desperately shouting: Grandpa! Grandpa!
But Grandpa would never open his eyes again, touch her head with a smile, and call her: "Nannan!"
So later on, Song Shiwei made a lot of money, but he could no longer fulfill his promise to his grandfather!
To be honest, she doesn't have much affection for her biological parents. They divorced the year she was admitted to university. They said that they had relationship problems since she was in high school. If it weren't for the fact that they didn't want to delay her studies, they would not have divorced until now.
Song Shiwei listened to the news in a daze, and there was no ripple in her heart.
Because the only one in this world who truly loves her is her grandfather.
After my parents divorced, they remarried soon and had their own children.
She earned all the money for college by working part-time while studying.
After graduation, find a job for yourself and spend your own money.
In that world, she was alone, so she devoted all her energy to her work.
She works very hard and everyone who knows her calls her "the hard-working woman!", so she has achieved good results.
She made a lot of money, but she often felt lonely and empty.
Since coming to this world, she discovered that life could be lived in this way.
She has a husband who loves her, is devoted to her parents and in-laws, and is even lucky enough to have eight children.
Song Shiwei felt that she was really satisfied.
But when I saw Uncle Li's busy back, I thought of my grandfather for some reason.
I couldn't help but burst into tears.
He seemed to feel her gaze.
Old Li turned his head and saw her red eyes, and even two lines of tears on her cheeks.
Thinking she was worried about Zhou Tingyue, she quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, your man will be fine!"
Song Shiwei knew that he had misunderstood, nodded, and wiped away her tears.
"Uncle Li, go take a rest!"
But Old Li waved his hand and said, "No, no, I'm the only one out of us who's alright. Someone needs to keep an eye on us. Death Valley is full of dangers, so we can't let our guard down. And I have to keep an eye on Tingyue at all times, otherwise, I won't be at ease! After all, I must keep my promise to you. I don't want to see you cry again!"
Song Shiwei raised the corners of his lips and smiled.
"Uncle Li, don't worry, I won't cry anymore!"
She turned her head and looked at the wild boar behind her.
"Everyone's been starving these days. It would be a waste not to eat this pork, it weighs several hundred pounds! I'll marinate the meat and we can grill it!"
When he heard that he could eat meat, Old Li's eyes lit up.
"Okay! Here's the tinderbox!"
As he spoke, he took out something made of a bamboo tube from his arms.
Song Shiwei looks a bit like the ones used by ancient people in costume TV dramas.
She opened the lid, blew hard, and it caught fire!
"Uncle Li, can you make this?"
Old Li smiled and said, "Of course, your Uncle Li knows a lot of things. If you cook for me in the future, I will teach you slowly!"
Song Shi pursed his lips and smiled: "Okay!"
The fact that she went to cook for him meant that Zhou Tingyue had been cured, which was also the result she most hoped for.
Of course I agree!
Zhou Tingyue paid with his life for that wild boar.
Song Shiwei felt hatred in his heart.
After she cut him open with the saber in her hand, she threw his internal organs far away because she was afraid of the strong smell of blood.
She didn't want the pig's head, butt, or four legs, leaving only two long tenderloins and the best pork belly on both sides.
Even so, it weighs nearly 100 kilograms.
She also cut off all the pig skin, fearing that there would be residual toxins on the skin, and the wild boar hair was so hard to handle.
Anyway, they are now in the wild, so they can only eat the best processed parts.
After taking the meat, she washed away the dirt with half a bottle of water.
Wrap it with a piece of clean wax paper.
This oil paper was used to hold the cakes. I have eaten so many cakes, so I have freed up an oilcloth bag.
Fortunately, she had brought a lot of salt with her. She left a large piece and smeared salt on the rest, packed them up, put them aside, and took them back to eat on the road.
She planned to use this big piece to grill meat!
The remaining pig heads, pig butts, pig legs, etc. were all buried by her with soil.
Prevent the smell of blood from attracting other wild animals.
