Chapter 310 Cause of Injury
Uncle Yan and Ye Mingzhu looked at each other, not understanding what Dazhuang wanted to talk to them about.
"Mingzhu, I'll go over and take a look. You stay here to take care of Ludou. Yun'an, you stay here with your sister."
Uncle Yan gave Ye Mingzhu and Ye Yun'an some instructions and then walked out.
Da Zhuang's wife nodded to Uncle Yan and whispered, "Da Zhuang is waiting for you in the house."
After saying that, without waiting for Uncle Yan's response, he quickly walked to the kitchen.
Fortunately, Uncle Yan was not distracted, otherwise he would not be able to hear the voice of Dazhuang's wife clearly.
In the upper room, Da Zhuang saw Uncle Yan coming in and smiled heartily: "Brother Yan, thank you very much."
Uncle Yan understood that he was talking about the medical expenses and shook his head: "I still have to apologize to Brother Dazhuang, otherwise Brother Dazhuang would not have suffered such a hardship."
After Dazhuang woke up, he still remembered what happened some time ago. He knew it was his fault and had nothing to do with the other party.
He smiled bitterly: "Brother Yan said that, I feel a little embarrassed."
Uncle Yan listened to Da Zhuang talking and thought that he didn't look like an ordinary hunter and seemed to have read books, so he asked a question.
Da Zhuang nodded and said, "I studied in a school for a few years, and later I inherited my father's business and became a hunter."
In fact, his father was injured while hunting and could not afford to support his studies. In addition, he was not talented in studying, so he had to give up.
If he hadn't come to his senses this time, his son's future life would have been worse than his, so he was so grateful to Uncle Yan.
"Brother Yan, I heard from my mother that you are going west?"
Da Zhuang's face was full of nervousness, and he seemed to be very concerned about this topic.
Uncle Yan didn't understand what he meant and nodded slowly: "Our home is in the west, and we have to get home before the New Year."
Da Zhuang was so anxious that he wanted to get up, but Uncle Yan supported him and told him to lie down and talk slowly.
"Brother Yan, you don't know, there is a mountain to the west of our village. I injured the wild boar last time near there."
"What I encountered wasn't just one wild boar, but a group of them. I don't know why, but they were just wandering around there. My mom told me that they came down the mountain again a while ago. If you pass by the foot of the mountain, you might encounter one."
Da Zhuang was really worried about Uncle Yan and the others, so he finished his words in one breath, "Brother Yan, if you are not in a hurry, try to take a detour."
Uncle Yan shook his head. "The road at the foot of the mountain is the shortest. If we take a detour, it will probably take five or six more days. Not to mention that we'll be on the road for the New Year, we might even run into other accidents during those five or six days."
Da Zhuang couldn't think of any other solution, so he tentatively said, "How about I find a few villagers to see if the wild boars have come down the mountain recently?"
Having said that, he was not sure whether the villagers were willing to go. He was considered a good hunter in the village, but even he was injured by a wild boar. He didn't know whether others were willing to go.
Uncle Yan shook his head: "The New Year is coming soon. I'm afraid everyone is reluctant to go up the mountain. Thank you, Brother Dazhuang, for telling me this news. I'll think about it when I get back."
Da Zhuang was afraid that Uncle Yan would not take this matter seriously, so he reminded him to try not to take the road at the foot of the mountain.
Uncle Yan knew that Dazhuang meant well, so he thanked him again and went back to think about it before making a decision.
Ye Mingzhu immediately noticed Uncle Yan's abnormality, because Uncle Yan actually started to lose focus, which had never happened before.
"Uncle Yan, did something happen?" Ye Mingzhu avoided Ye Yun'an and Lu Dou and asked quietly.
Uncle Yan didn't want to say it at first, but he was leaving tomorrow and he couldn't hide the matter, so he told Da Zhuang that he had come to see him and told him that there were wild boars in the mountains.
Ye Mingzhu frowned. Even though she had never seen one, she knew that wild boars were difficult to deal with.
"Mingzhu, I want to go to the mountain at night to see the situation." This was the main reason why Uncle Yan told Ye Mingzhu about the matter.
"No," Ye Mingzhu disagreed. "Uncle Yan, even if you want to go up the mountain to check the situation, you can't go at night. None of us have been up the mountain before, so we don't know what it's like. Besides, we can't see clearly at night, and it's even more unsafe."
"Mingzhu, listen to me. This is the shortest way. If we don't go through the foot of the mountain, we'll have to take a detour, which will delay us for at least four or five days. If we run into any other problems, we might end up spending the New Year away from home."
Uncle Yan was skilled in martial arts and was not afraid of wild boars. He was just worried that there were too many wild boars on the mountain and he would not be able to deal with them in a short time, which would delay his return.
Ye Mingzhu shook her head and said seriously, "Uncle Yan, if we really can't make it back in time, we'll just spend the New Year away from home. Nothing is more important than your safety."
"Mingzhu, I'm just going up the mountain to take a look, not to kill wild boars." Uncle Yan was very touched to see Ye Mingzhu cared about him so much, but he did not give in.
This year is the first year after Ye Mingzhu and Jiang Hongyu’s marriage. They must spend it together, otherwise it will affect their harmonious future.
Although he is not Jiang Hongyu's biological uncle, he is his master and he has to consider his apprentice.
Seeing that she couldn't persuade Uncle Yan, Ye Mingzhu took a step back and said, "How about this? Let's find some people in the village tomorrow to go up the mountain with you. It will be relatively safer if there is someone to lead the way."
If it weren't for the wild boars on the mountain, this idea would certainly be a good one, but now there are wild boars on the mountain, and according to Dazhuang, there are more than one. I'm afraid it will be difficult to find anyone in the village.
Uncle Yan could see that Ye Mingzhu really didn't want him to go up the mountain, so he didn't say anything more and just said he would go to the village to ask someone first.
Seeing Uncle Yan give in, Ye Mingzhu went out to the village again, but her worries were still there.
Uncle Yan was so insistent on going up the mountain just now, why did he give up after she said a few words?
She was worried that Uncle Yan would go up the mountain, so she walked around the yard several times and only felt relieved when Uncle Yan came back.
"Uncle Yan, what do the villagers say?"
Uncle Yan smiled under Ye Mingzhu's worried eyes: "I just asked the villagers, and they said that no wild boars have been seen going up the mountain recently. I found two hunters to go up the mountain with me tomorrow."
Ye Mingzhu stared carefully at the expression on Uncle Yan's face, wanting to confirm whether what he said was true.
Uncle Yan felt a little nervous. He avoided Ye Mingzhu's gaze and went to fetch water to wash his hands. "Mingzhu, I want to go out early tomorrow, so I won't have dinner with you."
"It's so cold, we can't skip breakfast." Ye Mingzhu retorted subconsciously: "Let Yun An make some dry food for you tonight. Tomorrow morning, you can get up and heat it up before going up the mountain."
Uncle Yan wiped his hands clean and said, "Okay, I'll go talk to Yun An and just make a few steamed buns."
Ye Mingzhu felt that this was not possible. It was so cold now, and it was not enough to just eat steamed buns. She asked Ye Yun'an to take out the braised pork he had bought and cut some of it, and then boil a few eggs for Uncle Yan to take with him.
When Ye Yun'an heard that they were going to hunt wild boars in the mountains, his eyes were full of eagerness: "Uncle Yan, can I go with you?"
