Inside the room, Wu Su said to the smirking Yu Sui, "This man is not bad. He is upright and his heart and eyes are all about you."
Yu Sui said proudly: "Of course, if he doesn't do this, I won't marry him."
"You're quite rare. You're clear-headed about this matter. I've noticed that many of you Han Chinese girls are easily deceived by men and therefore easily suffer losses."
"No. There are too many Han girls, all kinds of people. I'll take you to our Jiangnan and let you see that there are girls like me there, and there are also girls who are much worse than me, who only want men's lives."
Wu Su had been responding, but suddenly asked, "Are you going there this time to find someone much worse than you?"
Since they were asking her for help, Yu Sui did not hide anything:
"Yes. A few months ago, she snuck in here and, taking advantage of my inattention, pushed me into the river. Luckily, I survived. That would have been fine, but she thought I was dead and even instigated someone to tell my parents about my death, which would have saddened them. Fortunately, my brother was smart enough to come here to find me, and I finally felt at ease. I called her and found out about her. She'd harmed so many people. I thought to myself, if I don't take care of her, she'll keep bothering me. So, I have to take action."
Wu Su listened with a frown, slowly reached out his hand, placed it on Yu Sui's shoulder, and closed his eyes.
Yu Sui knew that she was a little weird, so she didn't say anything and let her hand stay like that.
After a while, Wu Su opened his eyes and said, "Do you remember that I once told you to be careful with a woman? Between you two, it's a debt that must end in death. You must have forgotten what I said."
Yu Sui indeed forgot.
Or rather, I didn't pay much attention to it at first.
㹏It's too proud to rely on the fact that you have space.
Yu Sui: "This woman is my cousin. I only thought she was taking the opportunity to harm me, but she and I are so far apart, and she actually took a train to harm me. I really didn't expect this. It completely overturned my previous understanding of her. It was my negligence. I will learn from this."
Wu Su agreed with Yu Sui's words:
"People are like this. If they haven't thought about it themselves, they assume others haven't thought about it either. But they don't know that people with bad intentions always think worse than you. Some people, after being harmed, always ask why, why did you harm me, why me? In fact, many times there is no reason. If you insist on asking why, it's probably a debt owed in a previous life."
Yu Sui: "You're right, some people are just bad and will hurt others without any reason. That's why I have to go there even more. I have to find a way to put her in jail, otherwise, my family and I will never live in peace!"
"I don't care about your grudges, but if I feel something is wrong, I will warn you."
"Okay! Thank you, Auntie. Actually, it's okay even if you don't remind me. But if it's my man, no one will be with me, and he won't let me go back home."
"I see. He even promised me that if I could bring you back safely, I'd give him a dollar."
Yu Sui was stunned. She felt that Wu Su was a different person, and she chose not to speak out. "Ah? He didn't tell me about this. Auntie, do you think one yuan is a good amount? I really didn't think about giving you money. I just wanted to take you to Jiangnan to have a good time and buy you a gift."
"You're right that you didn't expect it. I didn't plan to ask for money, nor did I want any gifts. But I know that you must be in charge of the money in your family. I planned to see how a penniless man could get a ten-thousand dollar. It should be quite interesting, so I agreed. I said I needed a ten-thousand dollar." Wu Su's smile was mischievous.
Yu Sui was speechless.
I really didn't realize that Wu Su had such a childish side.
Well, she also wanted to see how Xia Linsheng would get the ten thousand dollars since he didn't have a penny at the moment.
In the following time, Yu Sui began to pack up her things, and Wu Su spent most of her time sitting cross-legged in meditation, or looking at some books with special icons.
Once, Yu Sui asked her curiously, "Auntie, what are you looking at?"
"It is a scripture that our Nabe high priests must read."
Yu Sui was a little surprised: "...High Priest?" He sounded very powerful.
"Yes. I am now the high priest of the tribe." Wu Su said it lightly without even raising his head.
Yu Sui felt a little embarrassed, so she put down what she was holding and walked over and said:
"Auntie, you're already the high priestess. I'm really sorry to trouble you like this. I think I should pay you a little labor fee like Xia Linsheng did. Otherwise, it would be really bad to take up so much of your time."
Wu Su raised his eyes, his deep eyes showing loneliness:
"What's the point of being a high priest? Our tribe is dwindling. I became high priest because my son passed away a month ago, and my mother, who was the high priest, also passed away a few months ago. There's no one to carry on the tribe's traditions, so I had to take over. I really wish I had children who could take on the responsibility for me."
We, the Nabei people, have our own language but no written language. The only symbols we have can only be passed down to qualified priests. If I can't find a suitable successor before I die, many of our ancient skills will be lost forever."
Yu Sui asked curiously, "How many people are there in your clan?"
Wusu: "There are only about 4,000 of us, and some have even fled to the other side. We used to make a living by raising wild elk and fishing, but... policies changed a lot. For a while, we couldn't raise elk or fish anymore, so we all dispersed and made our own livings. Those of us who stayed in the mountains were very poor, especially since we rarely got food and sugar coupons. Alas, I hurriedly took your things the other day because some of the elders in the tribe hadn't had sugar or flour in a while. You gave me some, and I had to take it back to share with them."
"I see. Auntie, let me tell you this. This time I come, I'll buy you more sugar and flour."
"No need. I told you I came to accompany you just to make myself feel at ease. You don't have to thank me specifically."
"Then let's talk about it when you come."
Yu Sui wisely stopped talking about it.
It can be seen that Wusu has its own pride and is unwilling to discuss compensation.
In the afternoon, Xia Linsheng really came to send Yu Sui to the train station.
Han Duomi drove and waited outside.
Yu Sui stood by the car, directing Xia Linsheng to carry the luggage one by one onto the car. One day, Xia Linsheng had just walked over when Han Duomi said, "Sister-in-law, it will take you a long time to go back home, and you have so much luggage with you?"
"Yeah, at least three or four months. I'll come back when the weather gets warmer."
"Then it may be difficult for us to meet again."
"Have you completed the transfer procedures?"
"It's almost done. Captain Ding is leaving, so he... took over and helped me with it."
Yu Sui thought that this was probably another case of him taking his anger out on others.
Every day you stay less means one day less salary here.
For Han Duomi's financial situation, he should be satisfied.
