sister-in-law

Chapter 29
But Su Ruoli and Gu Zhang just took a breath after unloading the wild boar, when they heard a gong sound like a thunderbolt, and Su Ruoli, who had just breathed a sigh of relief from the thrill of hunting the wild boar, changed his expression again.

"Did something happen in the village?" She grabbed Gu Zhang's sleeve and trembled slightly.It's not that they are so weak, but that when people are frightened one after another in a dangerous situation, their bodies start to react involuntarily.

"Don't be afraid, what can happen?" Gu Zhang put his arms around her and gently embraced her, with a big hand caressing her back seemingly indistinctly, as if comforting her.

Sure enough, Su Ruoli nestled in his arms, her heart slowly calmed down.

"The taller ones have to deal with big things. Let's build the house first and talk about it after eating and drinking." Gu Zhang's green chin just popped out and gently stroked Su Ruoli's hair Actually, I feel a little bit reluctant.

But his rationality told him that the fruit was still too young to be picked prematurely.

He let go of Su Ruoli, turned her around, and the two faced each other.

Gu Zhang stared into her eyes and said seriously, "Li'er, I know I don't have any skills, but I will work hard and not let you be wronged."

Su Ruoli blinked her eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable.What does it mean for such a simple and honest mountain village boy to say such a thing?Are you confessing to her?
It's just that there is no romantic language in his confession, let alone sensational means, and there are only words of living life wholeheartedly.

Why does her nose feel sour?

The feather fan-like eyelashes trembled slightly, as if a restless butterfly was about to leave the petals, Su Ruoli lowered her eyelids, and responded with a low "hmm".

Immediately, a bright smile appeared on the boy's face, "Okay, then let's do it now."

Gu Zhang did what he said, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to move the wood, but Su Ruoli grabbed him, "Does your shoulder matter? Show me?"

But Gu Zhang said: "It's nothing serious, it's just that the flesh is torn. Wait until my husband makes a fire." Without further ado, he grabbed a handful of hay, took out a fire from his pocket and lit it. There was a fire.

Taking advantage of the fire, Su Ruoli took a look at his wound, it was indeed a flesh wound, and blood was still oozing out.It's just that on a hot day, such a wound is also prone to infection.

She fumbled into the straw bale behind her, took out a handful of green grass with small thorns, found a stone and crushed it, and stuck it on Gu Zhang's wound.

"What is this?" Gu Zhang sat on the ground motionless and let her do whatever he wanted.

"Big Ji, it stops bleeding and reduces inflammation." Su Ruoli was busy with her hands, explaining to him, and I don't know if he understood.

Gu Zhang's obsidian-like bright eyes were shining brightly, staring at the busy little girl without blinking.

In the firelight, there was a thin layer of sweat on the girl's forehead, and her cheeks were flushed by the firelight, like peach blossoms in March.

Gu Zhang's heart skipped a beat, so she really knows medical skills?Where did she learn it?

After bandaging him, Su Ruoli directly assigned the task: "You build a house, and I'll clean up the wild boars!"

Building a house is naturally a man's job, Gu Zhang has no doubts.Just cleaning up wild boars doesn't seem to be something women can do, right?
He stood aside hesitantly, "Well, why don't the wild boars wait until I finish building the house? How can your girl make this?"

Su Ruoli was squatting down, holding the machete in his hand, but felt that it was not easy for him to take advantage of, so he wandered around twice, and replied nonchalantly: "It's nothing, it's too easy, I've done it for humans, let alone pigs." ?”

What?She did it all?
Gu Zhang's face turned white all of a sudden, such a young girl, has she ever killed someone?Looks pretty skilled?

He was startled, and quickly stepped forward to hold Su Ruoli's fishy hand, and said eagerly, "What did you mean by that just now?"

Did he marry a murderer?But intuitively not.

Looking at Gu Zhang's anxious face, Su Ruoli was a little confused, what did she say just now?
It seems that she can clean up wild boars, as if she also said that she has cleaned up people too?
Oh, what's wrong with that?She is indeed very familiar with the human body, and has performed many surgeries.

Raising those misty eyes, Su Ruoli met Gu Zhang's starry eyes, and said with a smile: "It's not interesting, I just said that I can clean up wild boars!"

Just, is that all?

Gu Zhang's heart was beating violently, but when he met those innocent eyes, he still suppressed his curiosity and forced a smile, "Since that's the case, I'm relieved."

After speaking, he went to build the house in great strides.

Su Ruoli cut off a piece of wild boar with a machete, washed it in the stream, chopped a few sticks through it, and roasted it on the fire.

After a while, there was a smell of meat.

Su Ruoli sniffed and smiled at Gu Zhang, "It would be nice if there was some salt." It's a pity that when Luo Shi kicked him out, there was nothing.

Gu Zhang smiled wryly, but said nothing.

Seeing that the meat was cooked, Su Ruoli tore off a piece and tasted it first.Without salt, the taste is not good, but it is better than nothing.

She just took a bunch to pass to Gu Zhang, when there was another sound of gongs and drums in the distance.On the edge of the dark sky, there was another thunder.

Gu Zhang stopped what he was doing, squatted beside the fire, and Su Ruoli and Su Ruoli each held a bunch of meat in their hands, and ate it restlessly.

"Could something have happened?" Su Ruoli asked softly, as if
Fear broke the quiet sky.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps approached.

Gu Zhang's complexion changed, and he casually pulled out a stick with fire in his hand.They are behind this village, it is better to be careful.

The visitor seemed to be having a hard time walking, and she could vaguely hear her wheezing.

When he got close, Gu Zhang suddenly stood up and growled, "Who?"

The voice was hoarse and shrill, which frightened Su Ruoli, who stood up and looked in the direction of the footsteps.

"It's me... big brother." The visitor seemed to be taken aback, he stopped in his tracks, took a few breaths before answering.

It's the voice of Sister-in-Law Osmanthus!

Gu Zhang and Su Ruoli looked at each other, what was she doing here so late?Could it be that Maomao is not good?
Sister-in-law Osmanthus came closer, only then did Su Ruoli see that she was holding a black ball in her hand, which seemed to be clothes or something.He couldn't help asking her worriedly, "Sister-in-law, why isn't she watching the child at home so late?"

Sister-in-law Osmanthus leaned closer to the fire, and then forced a smile and said, "Maomao is much better, although she is still asleep, but her breath is more even. Thanks to the big sister, I heard that you were kicked out, I thought you must be missing For those who lack that, I brought a quilt and a change of clothes..."

Before he finished speaking, Su Ruoli already understood.It must have been Osmanthus sister-in-law who heard Luo Shi's yelling and knew that they were kicked out of the house, so she secretly came to deliver some things.
