After Yuan Shitou and Yun Xiaoxiao had filled their stomachs.
Mother Yuan then boiled a large pot of water.
We need to take advantage of the early hour and clear the wild boars out.
Otherwise it will smell bad.
Yun Xiaoxiao couldn't help much, so she tidied up the mushrooms on the side.
Dog Egg sat obediently beside her, helping her pick out the items.
Yuan Shitou was an experienced hunter, and his father often went hunting in the mountains when he was not injured.
Both of them were very skilled.
It wasn't long before they shaved the wild boar clean and gutted it.
Yuan's mother then separated the large pieces of wild boar meat.
Then rub the fried salt onto each one individually.
Then put it in a large basin.
After they finished cleaning the wild boar meat, Xiao Xiao was still cleaning the mushrooms.
There was no other way; it was quite slow for her to clean two large baskets of mushrooms all by herself.
While cleaning the mushrooms, Gou Dan'er couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep.
Mother Yuan took the bones she had shaved off and used them to make soup.
Add some dried mushrooms to the soup; it will taste delicious.
It wasn't until almost dark that everyone finished their work.
Yun Xiaoxiao thought she definitely wouldn't go up the mountain to pick mushrooms tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, I was woken up by Yuan Shitou again the next day.
The two of them, carrying their baskets, went to the same place as yesterday.
The bloodstains on the ground had disappeared.
It's unclear whether it seeped into the soil or was licked away by other wild animals.
Yuan Shitou wasn't in a hurry to pick mushrooms; he stared intently at Yun Xiaoxiao.
Yun Xiaoxiao was terrified when he saw her:
"What? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Speak your mind. Don't scare people.
She knew Yuan Shitou would definitely want to know the details.
Otherwise, given his personality, he wouldn't have let her go up the mountain today.
If we can go up the mountain, it means we can ask her questions.
I thought he would ask on the way, but I didn't expect him to hold it in for so long.
Yuan Shitou has changed his rough appearance.
His eyes were particularly sharp: "You still haven't explained what I said yesterday clearly to me."
Tell me now, I want to hear it.
He couldn't find the answer to this question.
It kept him up quite a bit last night.
He wouldn't feel at ease until he figured it out.
Yun Xiaoxiao knew that this matter couldn't be brushed off.
She stared intently at the round stone: "You really want to hear this?"
Yuan Shitou nodded: "I want to hear it."
"And then what happened after you heard it?"
"What do you mean?" Yuan Shitou asked, puzzled.
Yun Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and decided to tell the whole story.
She has lost contact with all her relatives here.
Besides, although this place is remote and poor.
But the Yuan family was genuinely good to her.
If she could, she really wanted to stay.
Over the days they've spent together, she's become quite dependent on Yuan Shitou.
She also considered staying and marrying him.
But saying it today might change things from what they used to be.
Yuan Shitou kept a close eye on the changes in her face.
Therefore, none of Yun Xiaoxiao's emotions escaped his notice.
I was thinking of just letting it go.
Don't push Xiaoxiao too hard.
The main concern is that some other reason might force Xiaoxiao to leave.
What should he do then?
Xiaoxiao was the wife he knew at first sight, and he didn't want her to leave.
Yun Xiaoxiao had no idea what Yuan Shitou was thinking.
He figured he would find out about this sooner or later.
I should have said so sooner.
So he gritted his teeth and sat down on a rock.
"Everything I told you before was true; I didn't lie to you."
But there's one thing I didn't say.
This is very strange, and I don't know why.
When Yuan Shitou saw that Yun Xiaoxiao had started talking, he tried to stop her by saying that he didn't want to listen anymore.
But while the mind thinks this way, the body doesn't do it.
He sat cross-legged on the grass, not caring that the dew would wet his trousers.
He just quietly watched Yun Xiaoxiao.
The meaning is obvious.
He wants to hear it.
So Yun Xiaoxiao paused for a moment to think before telling him all about her experiences.
There was no concealment whatsoever, including that he came from the emerging century.
At first, Yuan Shitou didn't understand, but after confirming it again, he grabbed Yun Xiaoxiao's wrist.
Yun Xiaoxiao was so frightened she almost screamed.
She thought Yuan Shitou was going to take care of her here.
He tried to break free from Yuan Shitou's grasp, but Yuan Shitou held on too tightly.
Unable to break free, she became somewhat annoyed: "What are you doing? You're pinching me so hard it hurts."
Let go, let go of me now!
When Yuan Shitou heard her cry out in pain, he immediately let go of her.
He then pulled her into his arms again.
Yun Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment and pounded his arm.
"Yuan Shitou, you're a madman."
What are you doing? Let me go.
Are you trying to take advantage of me?
Yuan Shitou held her tightly, his voice trembling with nervousness:
"Xiaoxiao, you won't leave, will you?"
Yun Xiaoxiao, who was struggling, was taken aback, then suddenly realized something and giggled.
Her whole little body was shaking from laughing.
Yuan Shitou loosened his grip on her slightly and just watched her smile quietly.
She's so pretty, and her smile is so radiant.
After laughing enough, Yun Xiaoxiao said, "Mother is right, you are a stupid bear."
If I could leave, I would have left long ago.
Then she shook her head: "I don't want to leave."
I want to stay here.
"When the time comes, I'll ask my mother to help me find someone who treats me well, so we can live together."
Yuan Shitou was initially disappointed when he heard her words.
Hearing the rest, he became happy again: "Xiaoxiao, you really aren't leaving? You're going to stay, aren't you?"
"You don't need your mother to find someone for you. You're mine; if you're going to marry, of course you should marry me."
Yun Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and looked up at the sky again.
"Where do you want me to go back to? Back to my old world?"
There's no going back there.
You can only go back after you die.
But I'm still young, and I don't want to die.
Besides, I also need to find my brother for my past self.
My mother, father, and you have all been so good to me, why should I leave?
If I leave, Gou Dan'er will definitely cry.
Although this place is remote and somewhat poor.
But we have hands.
You can change your environment yourself.
As the saying goes, "Those who live near mountains live off the mountains, and those who live near water live off the water."
I have another very bold idea, and I'll tell you about it today.
She talked for a long time, and at the end she even said she had a bold idea.
Yuan Shitou couldn't help but ask in surprise, "What are you thinking?"
Yun Xiaoxiao smiled, but her eyes held a determined look.
Do you know why I picked so many mushrooms and dried them?
Yuan Shitou: "Don't you like eating mushrooms?"
Yun Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "You know what? These mountain products are very valuable down in the mountains."
If we stockpile these mountain products and take them to the town at the foot of the mountain to sell, we're sure to make a lot of money.
"Then we can not only pay off the debt, but we'll also have money to use."
Speaking of this, she remembered something else.
"Brother Stone, I seem to remember that the road from which I was sold wasn't far. Why don't you guys take that route down the mountain?"
Yuan Shitou's expression was somewhat strange, but he still spoke truthfully:
There was only a mountain to climb, but no way down.
Yun Xiaoxiao asked, puzzled, "What do you mean? I don't understand."
