Back to 1984: Hunting in the Mountains

Chapter 133 We Have Three Children

Miali nodded.

"I haven't looked at it. I asked him, and he said it's not easy to find an honest girl. He's stupid. If he finds an elf girl, she will definitely bully him, and his life will be difficult."

"That's true."

Yu Chunmei nodded, thoughtfully.

At this time, the figures of Yu Qiutang and Yu Qiujiang appeared in the night. The two walked side by side, gradually from dark to light.

"Look, they're back."

Yu Chunmei stood up, thinking about preparing something to eat if they hadn't eaten. Mi Yali also stood up, but looked at Yu Qiutang, feeling a little nervous.

Of course, Yu Qiutang saw her appearance.

"Brother Jiang, please help me check the construction site later, I..." He muttered towards the kitchen, and Yu Qiujiang immediately understood what he meant. He did not go to the kitchen door, but crossed the field directly to the construction site.

Seeing that Yu Qiujiang was in such a state, Yu Chunmei felt that she was a bit redundant, so she simply said to Mi Yali, "You guys chat, my legs hurt a little, I'm going to lie down on the kang."

"okay."

Miali couldn't find a reason to leave at this time. She was the only one in the kitchen, and she couldn't just leave her alone and run somewhere else.

I had no choice but to stand at the door and watch Yu Qiutang approach.

Looking at the same person in different moods gives her different feelings. In the first few times, she only felt that Yu Qiutang was tall and thin, good-looking, with a special gentle and mature demeanor, not like an ordinary mountain villager.

Now, after a series of coincidences, she began to have a special feeling about him, as if she had met an old and familiar friend who knew her so well, but she was quite a stranger to him because it had been so long.

Yu Qiutang saw the baked bun in Miyali's hand, understood what was going on, and said with a smile: "This baked bun is good for your stomach."

Miali stared into his eyes playfully.

Yu Qiutang felt a little embarrassed when being stared at, "Comrade Miyali, why are you staring at me?"

"I want to take a closer look at you." Miyali stuffed the last bite of steamed bun into her mouth and circled around Yu Qiutang while chewing.

Yu Qiutang stood still and let her observe.

No matter what, he has completed the first step and successfully had the opportunity to contact Miali.

And make her feel that you care.

When it comes to the world's understanding of Miyali, who else but him? He even feels that even his father-in-law and mother-in-law don't understand Miyali better than he does.

When other people pursue their lovers, they test each other, adjust to each other, and constantly sense each other's personality and likes and dislikes, but he just serves the dishes based on the dishes he sees. From the very beginning, he serves whatever Miali likes.

Miyali turned around and returned to face him, staring into his eyes. "Comrade Yu Qiutang, can I ask you a question?"

"of course can."

"You have to answer me truthfully!"

"no problem."

"Then stare into my eyes. Yes, just stare like that. Don't blink or look away."

"Is that so..." Yu Qiutang tried his best to follow her instructions. This was Miali's usual method of identifying lies. She had used it on him and the children in her previous life. Over time, he had basically trained himself to be able to tell lies without blinking.

Of course, he wasn't going to lie tonight.

"Please tell me, did you know me before?" Mi Yali asked seriously, her beautiful eyes staring at Yu Qiutang's eyes motionlessly.

"know."

Yu Qiutang answered quickly.

"Uh?" Miyali was slightly startled. "Where did you meet?"

"In my previous life." Yu Qiutang answered truthfully.

"Nonsense," Miyali retorted subconsciously, but she found that Yu Qiutang's eyes did not dodge when he answered this sentence. After he finished speaking, he was still very serious when facing her doubts.

"You are lying, aren't you? There is no such thing as a past life. This is feudal superstition. We can't believe it."

"If you must find a reason, then this is the only explanation I can give." Yu Qiutang's answers were all based on simulating the results many times in advance and rehearsing them in his mind tens of thousands of times, almost becoming a mechanical reaction.

I can answer it subconsciously.

"I don't understand, what do you mean?"

"To be honest, I don't know either..." Yu Qiutang recalled the first time he met Mi Yali in the supply and marketing cooperative in his life, and his feelings at that time, so he explained: "In fact, when I met you in the store that time, a lot of illusions suddenly appeared in my head."

"What illusion?" Miali was aroused and wanted to find out.

Yu Qiutang rubbed his eyes and said, "Let me rest my eyes. I have been staring at them for a long time and they are so tired."

"Take a break," Miali said with a smile.

Soon, Yu Qiutang continued to tell his "strange legend".

"Many visions appeared before my eyes. It seemed to be a future world where people's lives were better than they are now. They could eat their fill and wear warm clothes. Every household could afford a four-wheeled car and watch TV. Buildings were taller than the Qingquan Tower..."

Miali listened fascinatedly.

It should be said that even if this was a lie, she felt that Yu Qiutang was very good at talking and telling stories. With his sincere and gentle eyes, it seemed as if the absurd future life he described would really happen.

"And we are a couple in that world..."

"couple?"

Miyali asked back, smiling, "Do I understand that you are now showing your true colors?"

"No, no, if you really want to describe it with a map, then I'm really going to unfold the map now. You need more time to listen."

Miyali looked at his eyes and finally nodded, pointing to the tree stump at the edge of the field. "Let's sit there and you tell me the story slowly. I'm very interested in this science fiction story you told me."

"We are a couple and have three children. They are all in college and are very well-behaved children. They love us very much..."

Before coming to the tree stump, Yu Qiutang felt that he still had a lot to say to Mia Li. If she was interested, he could even talk tonight until dawn tomorrow, and from dawn till dusk.

But after sitting down, he only said a few words, but found that many of the scenes about his wife were almost repetitive little things.

I don’t know how he can remember so many ordinary things, almost without any color, in their entirety.

It has become so difficult for him to find a few key moments that can fully mobilize Miali's enthusiasm.

Fortunately, Miyali seemed to understand his change of mood and suddenly asked, "What happened to me in the illusion in the end?"

Yu Qiutang looked at Mi Yali's youthful face from the side, her bright eyes, and sighed, "Dead."

"Oh, why?"

"Aren't you surprised or upset?" Yu Qiutang was still worried that Miyali would collapse after hearing this, but her performance was completely different from what he had imagined. Not only was she very calm, but there was also a fantasy about the illusion on her face.

"Everyone will die, it depends on whether the death is valuable or not."

Miali brushed her hair and smiled, "However, your reason sounds interesting, but it doesn't make sense."

"How to say?"

"Illusions are like dreams. They only show things that you have seen or sensed before. It is impossible for them to know so many things about me out of thin air."

"Your doubts are reasonable, Comrade Miyali," Yu Qiutang did not refute, "but I can only explain it this way. Otherwise, tell me what's wrong with me." "That's true."

Miali opened her mouth, wanting to say something in rebuttal, but unexpectedly, she could only smile.

"Yu Qiutang, it feels very strange."

"What about me?"

Miyali nodded, "You, and your business."

She recalled what she had heard from others about Yu Qiutang. Many of the things she found were beyond the abilities of a man of his age. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this person was full of disharmony, as if he was incompatible with this world.

"Are you interested in getting to know me better?"

"Ok?"

Miali sensed a "smell of conspiracy" from it.

Sure enough, Yu Qiutang then said, "I will be 18 years old when I get older, and I can look for a partner. If you can wait until then, I will ask a matchmaker to come to your house and propose marriage."

"what?!"

Mi Yali stood up subconsciously, her face burning with shame. Fortunately, the night covered her blush. She subconsciously kept a distance from Yu Qiutang. Her mind was blank. She pointed at Yu Qiutang and wanted to say a few words of warning, but no words came out.

It's really too bold.

She felt that he was even more unrestrained than the protagonists in novels. They were obviously strangers to each other, but he said such words directly.

Yu Qiutang was not at all frivolous. "You may think I am very direct, but I don't think so. If I meet a girl I like, and I am not married, and you are not married, and you don't hate me, then we have more than half of the foundation."

“Yu Qiutang!!”

"Why did I tell you tonight? I'm actually worried that if you don't know my feelings and accept another man at this stage, it would be a tragedy for me. I can't imagine the girl I like marrying someone else..."

"You have seen my eyes. I am sincere. If you can become my wife, I will spend my whole life taking care of you and let you live a happy life. I will be filial to your parents as I am to mine, and I will take care of your brothers and sisters as I would my brothers and sisters..."

"Yu Qiutang..."

Miali's heartbeat slowly slowed down, and her face was no longer so hot. She looked at Yu Qiutang quietly, listening to him speaking his heart out in a slightly hasty but still sincere manner.

Gradually, there are no more thoughts of rejection.

"In short, I respect your decision. I have said everything I need to say. You don't have to rush to reply me. There is a long time to come. You still have more time to understand me. I am willing to wait until the day when you can sense my feelings."

"I……"

Mi Yali was about to say something when she saw Wang Haofeng running over. She didn't say the second half of the sentence and turned into the kitchen.

"Tangtang, why don't you go to the fields?"

Wang Haofeng scooped up a bucket of water and drank half of it in one breath. Yu Qiutang glanced at the kitchen and wanted to kick his childhood friend.

"How's it going?"

"The first layer of loose soil has been dug out. Lao Mi said we will continue tomorrow. Everyone is following behind."

"That's fine."

Yu Chunmei heard this from inside and came out to ask, "Haofeng, are all the workers back?"

"Yes, Miss Mei."

"Okay, let's prepare some water for washing our faces."

Yu Chunmei entered the kitchen and was whispering something to Mi Yali. She could hear Mi Yali's soft moan.

"Tangtang, this girl is pretty good, do you have a boyfriend?"

"Shut up."

"Oh, there's nothing to talk about. Look at her..."

"Just shut up," Yu Qiutang covered Wang Haofeng's mouth and pulled him away from the kitchen door.

No one expected to have another meal, and they were all very happy.

During the meal, Yu Qiutang and Mi Wenzhong discussed the progress of the subsequent work and found that Mi Wenzhong was a natural worker. He was very dull in dealing with people, but when it came to work, he could talk very well.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he accidentally discovered that his third sister seemed to be secretly looking at Mi Wenzhong. When she served him egg soup, the eggs in Mi Wenzhong's bowl were obviously larger and full of egg yolks.

Could it be...

He couldn't help but have some associations and decided to observe carefully later.

If this can really be achieved, it would be a good thing.
.
The next day, Yu Qiutang went to his third uncle's house to visit his grandmother.

Yu Qiujiang would definitely not go, but when Yu Qiutang went there, he was notified as usual.

Yu Qiujiang just blurted out, "If there's anything you want to share, just let me know."

He still has the same attitude and will definitely not fall behind in doing what needs to be done.

If you want a very close relationship between grandparents and grandchildren, just dream on!

Yu Qiutang understood deeply and did not force him to do so.

He arrived at his third uncle's house and just saw his second and third uncles accompanying a spirited old man coming out. After they left, he realized that this was the old Chinese doctor they had invited.

The old man said that the old lady's illness was caused by years of depression in her heart, which caused a knot in her heart. There was no specific medicine that could solve it, and the only thing she could do was to relieve the depression and nourish the heart.

I prescribed a prescription.

Yu Qiutang took the prescription from his second uncle and found it quite complicated, including Panax notoginseng, Astragalus, White Peony Root, etc. His eyes fell on the last medicine and he was a little surprised.

Yu Demu saw his dilemma and comforted him, "It's okay. Musk is precious, but as long as you can buy it with money, it's not a problem. If you want your grandma to get better, that's better than anything else."

After chatting for a while, my second uncle drove back to the city.

He said he would go see where he could buy musk.

Yu Qiutang felt that it was not easy to find this precious medicinal material. Musk deer are distributed in the Qinling Mountains, but their number is not large. Moreover, this little guy is very smart and will run away immediately at the slightest disturbance.

It is not easy for ordinary hunters to even see the shadow of a musk deer, let alone hunt it.

Therefore, if someone is lucky enough to hunt a live musk deer, they must use very professional scent extraction techniques to obtain a small amount of musk.

Such a precious item, Cabernet Sauvignon, was finally collected by rich people, and it is definitely impossible for half of the clinics and pharmacies to have it.

The reason why it seems less precious in later generations is that people have mastered the artificial breeding of musk deer. Just like deer antlers and ginseng, once they are transferred from the wild to artificial breeding, the output immediately increases significantly.

But the quality and efficacy can be imagined.

People say that medicines from earlier years are effective, mainly because early medicines were basically naturally formed and their effective ingredients were accumulated, whereas many herbal medicines of later generations were quick-made and their key ingredients were often very small or even absent, leaving only their appearance.

The efficacy of the medicine is naturally not that good.

I hope my second uncle has a way. If not, I'm afraid I'll have to go into the mountains again to see if I can get a few musk deer.

“Eat it if you like it!”

As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw my third aunt Gao Meilan coming out of the side room with a plate of food and a look of anger on her face.
