The year Su Yunshi was pregnant with Su Mu, she went to visit her parents and was kidnapped by several robbers on the way.
At that time, the government was also cracking down on bandits, and Su Yun was rescued by the government less than three days after she was abducted.
Less than two months later, she was found to be pregnant. The villagers spread the rumor that the child was not Su Gui's, but that it was the offspring of that mountain bandit.
The country people are gossipy and always poke people in the back and say this. When Su Mu was a child, it was okay and the villagers were quieter. But the older he got, the less he looked like Su Gui, and he had no resemblance to the Su brothers.
Moreover, Su Mu is a little boy. The aesthetic taste of the people here for boys is that they should be delicate and beautiful, with soft and delicate features. Moreover, most boys have a more feminine appearance, with both the softness and charm of women and the elegance and toughness of men.
Su Mu has a rough appearance and looks more like a down-to-earth man.
With deep facial features, thick eyebrows and big eyes, he was really handsome in Lin Mo's eyes, so he naturally mistook Su Mu for a little man. However, in the eyes of these ancient people, he was ugly and rough, so Su Mu was given the title of an ugly boy since he was a child.
In addition to this bizarre life experience, he was not loved by his father and mother at home, and his name was given to him randomly.
His brothers and sisters all have Aunt Su's surname in their names, with the character "Yun" (cloud), but his name only has two characters.
He had suffered a lot since he was a child. Because of him, the villagers said a lot of things to Aunt Su. Aunt Su was a hot-tempered and mean person. If someone said something too much to Su Mu, she would beat and scold him.
And Su Gui hated Su Mu because of these rumors. Although they were all rumors, the older Su Mu got, the more he felt that he had raised a son for someone else in vain, and he was a worthless son at that!
Lin Mo was thinking in his heart that he had to get Su Mu out of the Su family as soon as possible. He originally thought that he would have nothing to do with the Su family after the cancellation of the engagement, but he didn't expect that he would turn around and fall in love with the other party's son. Thinking of this, Lin Mo felt that it was fate.
With Su Mu in his mind, Lin Mo stayed at home for another half a month. Half of May had just passed and the summer heat wave had arrived. Although it was just the beginning of summer, the sun was getting hotter day by day.
Lin Mo sat at the door with a tattered little stool. He would sit at the door like this every few days, waiting for Su Mu to walk past.
"Amo, you've just gotten better, so don't go out to bask in the sun. Go back and have a good rest." Lin Sheng put down the hoe in his hand, instructed Lin Mo, and continued to tidy up the weeds in the yard.
"It's okay, I'm feeling much better now." As he spoke, he watched from a distance as Su Mu took the machete and went up the mountain. He immediately changed his tone and said, "Brother, I'm going up the mountain to chop firewood. Where's the machete at home?"
He quickly turned around to look for it. He could see the end of the bare earthen house at a glance. Lin Mo walked out of the door with a machete, and even ignored Lin Sheng's call from behind.
It is said that this axe was given to Lin Wu as a deduction from his wages when he was working for someone else. Otherwise, his family would not be able to afford such a piece of iron.
The villagers were feudal and attached great importance to the reputation of unmarried men, so Lin Mo could only follow Su Mu from a distance. Fortunately, Su Mu didn't like crowded places and went to a remote forest alone.
Lin Mo guessed that he didn't want to be with the villagers, so he ran so far.
Lin Mo immediately ran after him. It was better for him to go off the beaten path so that no one would see them and it would affect Su Mu's reputation.
He himself didn't care but he couldn't ignore Su Mu. After all, he had to live in this place and he had to pay attention to his reputation.
"Su Mu, what a coincidence." As soon as he approached, Lin Mo shouted at him with a bright smile.
Su Mu frowned, his displeasure was obvious on his face. Because he didn't want to travel with the villagers, he had deliberately walked in a very remote place. He had already reached the back mountain. There were deep mountains ahead. Normally, no one would come here.
"Don't follow me." He looked up and down at Lin Mo's face, and the indifference in his eyes was obvious.
Lin Mo shook his head and said calmly, "This mountain is not yours. I'm just here to chop wood. How could I follow you?"
Su Mu's eyes widened, surprise flashing in his eyes. He obviously didn't expect Lin Mo to say that. "Whatever you say."
Lin Mo grinned. Su Mu's personality suited him very well. "My injuries haven't fully healed yet. You have to keep an eye on me. This place is so remote, and you're the only one by my side. If I faint, you have to call someone to save me."
"You can go back and rest now. Don't go up the mountain if you are not feeling well." Su Mu said indifferently, a little angry at Lin Mo's shamelessness.
Why does he always talk to me? And he always smiles so... beautifully...
Lin Mo looked at his indifferent face. It seemed that there was no change at all, but he always felt that the other party was angry, which made him look even cuter. He also tried to talk to Su Mu several times in the past few days.
But every time the other party just walked away without even turning back, and rarely said a few words. Today he had no choice but to follow him up the mountain.
At the beginning, he had imagined Su Mu's personality. In such an environment, he might be very cowardly and inferior. He even worried that Su Mu might suffer from autism or depression.
But he didn't expect that Su Mu was very active inside. After these few days of contact, he had a little understanding of him.
Because of his living environment, he shut himself off completely and hardly spoke a word. Apart from working hard, he would just stay quietly in a corner, as if he had accepted his fate.
But as long as you talk to him, he will reply you seriously.
Lin Mo looked at him with pity. He was too familiar with Su Mu's current appearance.
