They went to Misty Mountain this time, at Yun Xiaoxiao's insistence.
Yuan Shitou had no choice; his young wife's ideas were too strong, and he dared not disobey.
What if I don't go along with him and he doesn't marry me?
Yuan Shitou carried all of Yun Xiaoxiao's belongings on his back.
The reason is that its small body is too thin, what if it gets crushed?
Yun Xiaoxiao was happy to be free of any burden, so she let him have his way.
Upon reaching the outer edge of Misty Mountain, Yuan Shitou stopped.
Looking at Yun Xiaoxiao with a sliver of hope:
"How about we just walk around outside?"
It's really dangerous inside, I...
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Yun Xiaoxiao run inside.
Startled, he cried out, "Xiaoxiao, don't run! Let's go inside, okay?"
Yun Xiaoxiao said smugly, "If you don't agree, I'll go in alone."
What could Yuan Shitou say besides sighing?
As they walked, they marked the places they passed, just in case they got lost.
Actually, Yuan Shitou is a good kid, but his elders don't allow them to come. They really have never been before.
I was both curious and afraid of what was inside.
However, it's good to be curious, since everyone has curiosity.
After Yun Xiaoxiao and Yuan Shitou entered, they walked slowly.
He would also stop from time to time to look around.
Yun Xiaoxiao was secretly amazed; this deep mountain forest was truly different from ordinary mountains.
In the new era, she and her friends often went up the mountain.
However, compared to this Misty Mountain, it's nothing at all.
Fresh mushrooms and tender, juicy wild vegetables can be found everywhere here.
Yun Xiaoxiao ignored it; that wasn't what she was looking for.
Few people here grow vegetables; they mostly pick wild vegetables from the mountains to eat.
They have very little land to begin with, so they won't waste it.
Yes, they just think that growing vegetables is a waste of land.
Yuan Shitou's voice rang out from not far away: "Xiaoxiao, are you hungry?"
There are fish in this water; I'll catch a couple and grill them for you.
Yun Xiaoxiao's lips twitched. She's only been out for a short while, and she's already hungry?
Do you think she's a glutton?
Seeing that Yun Xiaoxiao did not answer, Yuan Shitou asked again.
Yun Xiaoxiao said sullenly, "I'm not hungry. If you're hungry, then go ahead and grab it."
Yuan Shitou scratched his head: "I'm not hungry either."
He noticed that his wife seemed to be in a bad mood.
I couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong? You seem unhappy."
Yun Xiaoxiao simply plopped down on the ground, her tone somewhat dejected:
"We've been in here for so long, and we haven't gained anything."
Yuan Shitou smiled when he heard her say that.
"Don't worry, Xiaoxiao, we haven't been here long."
It's normal that we haven't found anything yet; wild animals will come out to hunt again soon.
Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up: "You mean it's still early?"
Yuan Shitou only wanted to comfort her, and when he saw her ask that question, he subconsciously nodded.
Yun Xiaoxiao immediately perked up, patted the mud off her bottom, and said:
"Let's go find a place to dig a trap."
Even if we don't catch any prey, maybe we'll still find something in the trap?
Yuan Shitou thought digging a trap was a good idea, as it would prevent them from entering the inner perimeter.
It's not that dangerous if you don't go into the inner area.
When it gets dark, they can go home.
He never expected this...
Sigh, all I can do is sigh.
All I can say is that Xiaoxiao is incredibly restless.
What if he gets old and Xiaoxiao is still so mischievous?
Seeing that Yuan Shitou was standing there motionless, Yun Xiaoxiao waved her hand in front of his eyes.
Yuan Shitou was jolted back to his senses and quickly asked, "Ah, Xiaoxiao, what did you just say?"
I was distracted and didn't hear it.
Yun Xiaoxiao's cheeks twitched involuntarily a few times:
"I didn't say anything!"
Yuan Shitou scratched his head: "Maybe I misheard."
Seeing that he kept scratching his head, Yun Xiaoxiao was afraid that he had lice.
He frowned and asked, "Why are you always scratching your head? Do you have lice?"
"Ah," Yuan Shitou was stunned and couldn't quite come to his senses.
After thinking about what lice were, he shook his head repeatedly.
"No, no, no, I don't have lice. I shower and wash my hair every day."
Seriously, if you don't believe me, you can come and see for yourself.
Yun Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief; she was terrified.
That was what she feared most.
I remember when I was in the first year of junior high school, there was a girl sitting next to me who was very unclean.
Her hair was infested with lice.
Once, while eating, she even saw a louse fall into her bowl.
She didn't even notice and ate it along with her rice.
She was so disgusted that she ran to the toilet and vomited violently.
Later, she became particularly careful about the lice on her classmates' heads, fearing that the lice would fly onto her head.
On another occasion, she found a louse in her book.
She asked the teacher to change her seat.
If you request a change of location, you must give a reason.
In order to get away from that classmate, she told the truth.
At the time, the teacher was speechless, so she changed her assignment.
However, from then on, she developed a phobia of lice.
To put her mind at ease, Yun Xiaoxiao actually went and started digging into Yuan Shitou's hair to check.
Yuan Shitou was in a good mood and was not angry at Xiao Xiao in the slightest.
On the contrary, he was grinning at himself.
Xiao Xiao was so close to him that he could smell the soap pods on her.
And tiny little hands were scratching at his head, it felt so good.
I felt a bit drowsy.
Yuan Shitou even closed his eyes in apparent enjoyment.
Yun Xiaoxiao didn't find any lice or lice eggs on his head.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief; she was terrified.
He reached out and ruffled Yuan Shitou's hair, saying:
"Your hair is getting a bit long, it needs a trim."
Yuan Shitou nodded: "I'll cut it when I get back."
Since Xiaoxiao doesn't like long hair, let's shave it off.
Yun Xiaoxiao felt a little embarrassed, realizing she was being too sensitive.
Yuan Shitou can be quite thoughtful sometimes; he noticed Yun Xiaoxiao's face was flushed.
I knew she was shy.
He volunteered, "I just saw some yellow things over there; they must be wild berries."
Shall we go pick some?
Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up when she heard there was fruit.
She loves eating fruit, but she hasn't eaten any since she arrived.
I'm actually missing it terribly.
When Yuan Shitou saw Yun Xiaoxiao smile, he smiled too.
They came to a place where wild fruits grew, and sure enough, there were several loquat trees.
Yun Xiaoxiao was overjoyed and reached out to pick one.
After peeling it, I took a bite and immediately exclaimed, "It's so sweet!"
He reached out and picked another one for Yuan Shitou: "Try it, it's really sweet."
Yuan Shitou's face lit up with a wide smile when he saw the fruit Yun Xiaoxiao gave him.
Xiaoxiao was so kind to him, she even picked fruit for him to eat.
The two stood under the tree, eating and picking as they went, having a wonderful time.
The original plan to dig a trap has long been forgotten.
They only stopped eating when Yun Xiaoxiao's stomach was completely full.
Yuan Shitou asked Yun Xiaoxiao if she wanted to pick some to take home and eat slowly.
Yun Xiaoxiao then realized that they hadn't dug a trap yet.
