stand back, let me come

"Alu, Alu, where did this dead child go?"

The woman, who has been exposed to the wind, frost and sun for many years, carried a wooden bucket full of clear water and turned to look for her naughty son but found no one. She was not in a hurry, but complained.

"Maybe it's somewhere to play crazy?"

The woman who was traveling with her responded with a smile.

She also carried a wooden barrel on her shoulders.

"Hey, he's as good as his father..." A Lu Niang raised her hand to wipe the fine sweat hanging from her forehead. She originally wanted this kid to come over and help her share the burden, but who knew that he cared about her just like his father. It also made her worry.

"It will be changed after asking the wife."

"Yes."

The relief of others made A Luniang feel comfortable.

A faint smile appeared on her face again.

"Oh, hope."

Another asked, "When will your daughter-in-law come?"

A Lu Niang said with a smile: "There are still 31 days."

This is a major event in the family, and she remembers it clearly!Every day counts with fingers.

When other people heard it, they were all envious.

They all praised Alun Niang for her good luck.

Aluniang wore an old animal skin hat that was worn out, a square mouth and a wide nose, thick and thick eyebrows, dark and red skin, her body was not tall, her shoulders were broad, and her arms were thick. He is a stocky and short man.

I heard that she is not from the Shiwu tribe, but from a foreign tribe, and was sold to Shiwu by her cruel father.

Probably because of the frustration in her life, A Lu Niang died four men in a row, and now she has only one son, A Lu, who is 13 years old this year.Aluniang has been worrying about her son's marriage for the past two years, and has worked hard to save money for several years.

It's just that this amount of money is not enough to marry a ten-black girl.

Coinciding with the good business in the past two years, the prices of the women on Longwu's side have dropped precipitously, and the supply of goods has also increased.She contacted the dealers she knew through her contacts, paid a deposit, and didn't choose anyone. It is said that the delivery can be made on schedule within three months at the latest.

The businessman patted his chest and made a promise.

Aluniang is also beaming with joy these days.

Work more and more vigorously.

Everyone said that they were going to have a wedding soon.

There are not many capable women like A Lu Niang.

Many men in the tribe complain in private that their women are not as hardworking as A Luniang, and cannot earn a daughter-in-law for their son.

It caused other women to roll their eyes unanimously.

A Luniang is so strong because of the dead man, and she refuses to marry again, if she doesn't work hard, the two of them will drink the northwest wind?They are different, their men are still alive.

If they also killed men, they would definitely work hard.

One sentence made the man speechless.

"31 days? That's almost there."

"Don't forget to drink wine when the time comes."

There was a slight smile on Aluniang's face, and she said straight: "Of course, of course, the two lambs at home are ready."

A Lu Niang, who seems to be a winner in life, also has an unknown hidden pain in her heart, and that is her son.

Her son Alu didn't want to be a groom at all, he didn't have the self-consciousness of becoming an adult, he was like the king of children all day long, playing wildly with those naughty children of seven or eight years old.What kind of childish game is playing a game of generals and soldiers attacking the city.

Arunang was very dissatisfied with this.

Repeated cane lessons.

But the other men in the tribe felt that Alu had great potential as a warrior, and he would be able to go out to fight with other men in the tribe in a year or two. At that time, what gold, silver, treasures and food could not be chosen by women?This baby will be promising in the future!

Aluniang doesn't have such big ambitions.

She suffered so much in the first half of her life, pulling Alu up with shit and urine.All she wants is for her son to stay by her side in peace, to have a decent craft, to marry a wife and have more grandchildren, and to be filial to her when she gets old.

The tribal men scoffed at her idea.

Secretly look down on A Lu Niang.

Even her own children are not allowed to have more contact with her.

But the tribal women don't have so many ideas. They admire Aluniang, who can do the work of two big men by one person. The latter will occasionally help them with some heavy work, which is comparable to the man who only opens his mouth at home. Be stronger.

Seven or eight women fetched water and went back, chatting and laughing on the way, and didn't worry about the children who ran out to play wildly.

The current conditions are much better than before. Their tribe is a famous big tribe nearby, and there will be garrisons patrolling nearby to prevent wild animals from entering the territory.Similar things don't happen once or twice, they will come back after dark.

If it was later, a fat beating would be inevitable.

The tribe gathers many large and small tents.

Many tents have already raised smoke.

The tribal men gather together in twos and threes to chat, and the naughty children gather to play and play, watching the time go by.

Aluniang returned to her tent.

But I saw a familiar man standing outside the tent.

Aluniang knew that this man was the brother of her fourth husband, and they had gone out to "hunt" together.Of the more than 300 men who went there, only half of them came back. The remaining men—including A Luniang’s husband—were chased and shot by patrolmen at the border of Yonggu Pass in Longwu County. Fortunately, they had harvested that trip. Rich, as a widow, A Lu Niang also received a small fortune...

"Come in and sit."

The man followed inside.

"Sister-in-law, please do something."

"That's what you say, my brother will not agree." Aluniang has been taken care of by the other party all these years. When the tribe's food was the most scarce, her family had no adult men who could go out to hunt, and the food was very little. She and Alu almost starved to death in the cold winter months, but they survived with the help of dried bacon from each other. Alu Niang was very grateful.

"After the beginning of spring, the tribe will organize people to go spring hunting."

Mother A Lu's heart skipped a beat: "Are you going to let A Lu go?"

This is her lifeline.

She can support both of them by working alone.

Where does Aru need to go all out?

The man hurriedly waved his hands and explained: "No, no, I want to borrow the armor and bow and arrow left by my brother... This spring hunting should pass the test, it may be a bit dangerous, so I want to wear more things. Hunting can make money now, and I want to return it while hunting. If you can move, go hunting again, and find a woman for the family's cub..." Who wouldn't be envious of A Luniang spending money to beg a daughter-in-law from a businessman?

As soon as Aluniang heard the request, she immediately agreed.

Because there are not many decent craftsmen here in Shiwu, and there is no superb iron-making technology. For ordinary people, such exquisite things as armor and weapons are hard to come by. A "family heirloom" that is passed down from generation to generation as long as it is usable.Save your life at critical moments!There are also some people who go out to hunt, and their weapons are all sharpened stones...

The armor, bow and arrows of Alu's mother's family are all spoils of luck that were picked up from some unlucky guy in Yongguguan. Some people in the tribe want to borrow them, but Alu's mother generally refuses. They are left to her son Alu. equipment!
The person who borrowed this time was the deceased husband and brother.

She agreed.

The man dressed neatly and went out happily.

The majestic appearance attracted countless eyes along the way.

Aluniang was busy preparing food for the evening, burning firewood to cook corn and stewed broth, cleaning up the housework, and moving quickly.

Soon, the crazy children came back one after another, and some people directly heard the sound of children crying.

Except Aru.

Until the climax of the moon.

A shadow complained and rushed back.

Alu cursed: "Don't call me when I go home..."

Finally, exhaustion was approaching, under the moonlight, the vague shadow of the tribal camp could be seen vaguely, Alu quickened his pace and trotted all the way.But running, he found that the dark tribe gradually lit up with a strange light.

At first it was a little bit, and then it quickly became a piece.
