Volume 1 Who Doesn't Know You in Yunshan Chapter 21 Su Niang
People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless.
Chu Huan and Linlang have been together for a few days, and it is naturally impossible not to have the slightest emotion, but he knows that the two are not people on the same road after all, and if they say goodbye today, they may never see each other again.
The sun set, the sky and the earth darkened, Chu Huan relied on the memory in the depths of his mind, and walked along the small path to the west, walking for more than an hour, the sky had already completely darkened, and a crescent moon also rose from the sky.
Chu Huan turned over a dirt slope, and a lake appeared in front of him, the lake water was clear, glowing with a cold and quiet light in the moonlight, seeing this lake, Chu Huan's face showed a trace of joy, and the memory in the depths of his mind made him understand that he was getting closer and closer to home.
He walked to the lake, put down the wolf skin and package, and then held the lake water with both hands, and drank a few sips, under the moonlight, his appearance was reflected in the lake, and under the careful look, he was unkempt, and he was really sloppy, he shook his head and sighed, he went home like this, but he was afraid that the family would be startled when he saw it, and he took off his clothes and put them in the grass by the lake, and jumped into the lake by himself, which was to wash well.
In late autumn, the lake water was very cold, but Chu Huan had excellent physical fitness, there was no chill at all, he washed the dust on his body well, even his hair was fine, and he was about to go ashore to tie up his hair, when he suddenly heard a faint cry not far away, Chu Huan immediately frowned, approached the lake, and the withered grass by the lake suddenly covered him.
He looked in the direction where the cry came from by the moonlight, and saw a few figures faintly appearing on the path not far from the lake, and the cry came from that group of people.
Chu Huan frowned, looked closely, those people gradually approached, only to see a stout person in front of the head, a person behind him, followed by three or four people, carrying bows and arrows and holding iron forks, these people did not pay attention to Chu Huan in the lake, just walked by, but Chu Huan saw clearly, the crying person was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old youth.
Chu Huan was very strange in his heart, he didn't know what was going on, he was naked at this time, and naturally it was not easy to come out, seeing those few people gradually moving away, the cry gradually lowered, until finally he couldn't hear anything.
Although Chu Huan felt strange, after all, it was none of his business, and he didn't think much about it, he went ashore and put on his clothes, and took the lake as a mirror, tore off a cloth belt from his already shabby clothes, tied his hair behind his head, and tied it with a belt, then he picked up the wolf skin and package, and continued to go west along the lake.
After walking for half an hour, I saw a village in front of me, the autumn night was bleak, the moonlight was cold, the village under the dark night was quiet, the four fields were silent, there were a few fires in the village, naturally some people had not blown out the lamp to rest.
Chu Huan stood on the small slope, looking at the village, stunned.
After a long time, he took a deep breath, looked up at the moon, and walked towards the village, for some reason, the closer he got to the village, the more apprehensive he became.
There are thirty or forty families in the village, which is not a small village, but the houses are relatively short and very old, and you can see that the houses here have been built for some years.
Compared with the scene in Chu Huan's mind, the village has not changed much, he walked through the village, the night was dark and the wind was high, but he also found his home without meeting anyone.
It was a very dilapidated adobe house, at first glance, it was an old house after many years of wind and rain, much more dilapidated than Chu Huan's memory, according to Chu Huan's memory, one of the adobe houses in the middle was a guest hall, and on both sides were bedrooms, the one on the left should be where his parents lived, and the one on the right, before this body left home, should be where he and his brother lived.
Chu Huan stabilized his mood, finally stepped forward, put down the wolf skin, raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door, but there was no sound inside, so he increased his strength and knocked a few times.
Soon he heard a movement in the house, and when he heard the movement, the room seemed to be in a panic, and then he heard footsteps, which seemed to be coming towards the door.
Chu Huan waited for a while, and vaguely heard the footsteps and walked to the door, but he didn't see the door open, it was very strange, and he knocked on the door again, but there was a woman's cold voice in the house: "Who is it?" The voice was wary, but also hostile.
Chu Huan was stunned, in his memory, there were no other women in the family except for his mother, and this voice was obviously a young woman, not a mother, did he go to the wrong door?
He took two steps back, relying on the memory in his mind, clearly remembered that it was indeed this family, stepped forward again, and said softly: "I'm Erlang, open the door quickly!" ”
"What two wolves and three dogs, get out of the way for the old lady!" The voice inside sneered: "If you want to ask for a bargain here, don't even think about it!" ”
Listening to this voice, this woman was very spicy, Chu Huan was confused, but he was sure that he had not gone to the wrong door, and said in a deep voice: "Is this Chu Yuan's family?" ”
The woman in the room did not answer.
Chu Huan thought that after coming back, it would be an exciting and touching scene of reunion after a long absence, but he really didn't expect to be blocked in front of the door, and he didn't know why for a while, so he knocked on the door and shouted: "Big brother, I'm Erlang, open the door quickly." Jiro is back! ”
He slapped it twice, but there was still no response in the house, frowned, and pushed hard, and the wooden door that had been closed did not know when it had been opened and latched, but it was pushed open by him at once, and the room was dim.
Chu Huan frowned, and was about to step into the door, when he saw a figure suddenly appear in front of him, and before he could see it clearly, he saw that the figure had already raised his hand, and under the moonlight, he could see it clearly, the man was holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and slashed at Chu Huan mercilessly.
Chu Huan was taken aback, he never imagined that after opening the door, he was greeted by a kitchen knife, he took two steps back lightly, stood still, and the man stopped chasing, standing in front of the door, holding a kitchen knife in one hand and crossing his waist in the other.
Chu Huan took a look through the moonlight, only to see that it was a woman who attacked her, wearing a cyan autumn jacket on her upper body, and a coarse cloth floral skirt on her lower body, very simple, looking at her appearance, although she is not very beautiful, but she also has seven or eight points of beauty, she looks about the same age as Chu Huan, only twenty-two or three years old, and the skin on her face is naturally not as fair and delicate as Su Linlang, but among the country women, it is extremely white and smooth, with a bun on her head, and when she looks at the bun, she is already a woman.
This woman is tall, I don't know if it's because of the autumn jacket, her chest is bulging, and under the thin waist, the upper circumference looks very straight, but there is coldness between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and there is even more hostility in her eyes, without waiting for Chu Huan to speak, this woman has already crossed her waist and raised her other hand, the kitchen knife forward, and sneered: "Get out of here for the old lady, you take a step further, the old lady chopped you and fed the dog with a knife!" Her voice was slightly hoarse, but although she was reprimanding, it was still very beautiful.
Chu Huan frowned, as if he had thought of something, his face showed respect, he stared at the young woman and asked, "You...... Are you Sister Suniang? ”
The young woman was stunned, and then sneered: "What's wrong, the third watch touched the door of the old lady in the middle of the night, is it really easy to mess with me Ye Suniang?" You don't want to get out of here! ”
"Sister Su Niang, I'm Erlang!" Chu Huan took a step forward, and Su Niang immediately clenched the kitchen knife in her hand vigilantly, and said sharply: "Don't come here!" ”
"You don't know me anymore?" Chu Huan smiled bitterly: "I'm Chu Huan, Chu Erlang!" ”
"Chu Huan?" Su Niang crossed her waist and sneered: "My little brother-in-law has been dead for seven or eight years, is it still alive?" ”
Brother-in-law?
Chu Huan was stunned, and soon understood in his heart that what he had just guessed was really good, this young woman had really become the daughter-in-law of the eldest brother, that is, her sister-in-law.
Chu Huan saw that Su Niang refused to recognize him, and he also knew that his experience was very bizarre, and he couldn't say it clearly for a while, and said: "Sister Su Niang, it doesn't matter if you don't know me, you go and call the eldest brother out, the eldest brother will definitely know me!" ”
"Big brother?" Su Niang's eyes flashed a trace of gloom, gritted her teeth, and said hatefully: "You...... Who the hell are you? Isn't it...... Did Feng Ergou ask you to come over? He glanced to the east and scolded: "Feng Ergou, who was killed that day, thundered in the sky, wore human skin, and did not do personnel...... I don't want to die! ”
Chu Huan was a little confused for a while, and what was even more strange was that there was such a commotion outside, but there was silence in the room, and his brother didn't come out for a long time.
Seeing that Chu Huan was standing in a daze and was not ready to leave, Su Niang was angry and anxious, and wanted to scold, but at this moment, a voice finally came from the house: "Su Niang, what's going on outside?" ”
Su Niang heard the voice and hurriedly said: "Mother, it's okay, there is a night owl knocking on the door outside, I will come out to chase it away, your old man is asleep!" ”
When Chu Huan heard the voice, he suddenly flashed, and before Su Niang could react, he had already run to the window on the left side of the room and shouted to the window: "Mother, I'm Chu Huan, it's your Erlang, Mother, Erlang is back!" ”
Seeing this, Su Niang's face changed slightly, and she raised the kitchen knife in her hand to pass, but when she took a step, she stopped suddenly, her face showed doubt, and she looked Chu Huan up and down, with a strange look in her eyes.
There was already movement in the house, and the old woman's voice came out: "Yes...... It's Jiro...... Is it really Jiro? The voice was already a little shaky.
Chu Huan didn't care about anything else at this time, and in a few steps he arrived at the gate, and rushed into the house, Su Niang wanted to stop it, but for some reason, she only opened her small mouth, and after all, she didn't say anything, and let Chu Huan enter the house.
