from widow to dame

Chapter 27

Leaving aside the many affairs of the Wang family for the time being, on this day, the weather was fine, Su Wen and Wang Qilang also came back from get out of class, and Su Huiniang thought of going for a walk up the mountain after finishing the housework.So Lin and Su Wen were left to look after the house, and he changed into a dark short coat, carried a bamboo basket and went up the mountain with Wang Qilang.When she was in Wang's house, Su Huiniang often went to the mountain to cut pig grass, but she didn't dare to go in alone, she only moved around the foot or halfway up the mountain, but today, because Wang Qilang was here, she was not afraid of getting lost. For him, this mountain is probably more familiar than his own home.

Su Huiniang came here with the idea of ​​relaxation, and she was not in a hurry at this time, she just took a long wooden stick and walked forward slowly. During the process of going up the mountain, I occasionally met a few woodcutters and pickers, Su Huiniang Regardless of men and women, they greeted each other one by one. She has been in Wangjia'ao for a while, because she is a kind person and keeps her duty. accepted her.

Wang Qilang is probably more familiar with this mountain than anyone else. Along the way, Su Huiniang really dug up a lot of good things, such as yams with thick forearms, huge wild sweet potatoes, and many mother-in-laws, mustard greens, and horseshoe sprouts. Waiting for fresh wild vegetables.Su Huiniang was delighted to see Lie Xin, the one with a small waist was so industrious that it filled half of the bamboo frame in a short while.Not only that, but the two also found many mushrooms in a shady place in the woods.

The round, umbrella-shaped mushrooms are clustered together, which makes people want to pick them up.

"Choose gray ones or white ones," Wang Qilang said ostentatiously, "brightly colored and spotted mushrooms are poisonous."

Su Huiniang was taught humbly, lifted her hem and began to pick mushrooms happily.After working on it for more than half an hour, I just got up with a lot of satisfaction.Putting the mushrooms in a bamboo basket, Su Huiniang decided to go to the mountain stream to wash her hands. At this time, Wang Qilang ran to nowhere. Resting, there was a cool breeze blowing, and the branches that had just been twirled began to make a rattling sound. About half a quarter of an hour later, Wang Qilang came back, and he wrapped his hands around the hem of his skirt, vaguely able to See the shape of a bird's egg.Seeing him running in a hurry, Su Huiniang couldn't help showing a smile on her face, she opened her mouth and said, "Did you dig out the bird's nest again?"

Wang Qilang actually had a treasure offering expression on his face. He looked at Su Huiniang just about to say something, but suddenly his eyes froze and his face changed suddenly. Su Huiniang frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" Wang Qilang stopped, let go of his hands, The bird's egg fell to the ground and made a sound of breaking, but he didn't care about it. He just bowed his body, exerted force from his feet, and plundered towards this side like a thunderbolt. Su Huiniang stabbed at the top of her head.

"Hiss, hiss..." The small emerald snake with long and short forearms was slammed on the tree trunk by the top of the stick, its triangular head full of viciousness was raised high, and it spat out a red letter in pain.Su Huiniang couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw it, stepped back a few steps, and said in a trembling voice, "Snake?" Without saying a word, Wang Qilang grabbed the green snake's head as soon as he raised his hand, tightened his five fingers suddenly, and snapped—— The next triangular head rolled on the ground, and the scarlet blood flew out, making Su Huiniang want to vomit.

"Sister Hui is fine, it's dead!"

After hearing this, Su Huiniang couldn't help turning her head and took a deep breath. For most women, "snakes" are probably the most terrifying animals in the world. At least she can't bear it at all. At a glance, there is an uncontrollable fear.Thinking of that kind of thing crawling very close to her head just now, she broke out in a cold sweat.

Wang Qilang looked worriedly at the pale Su Huiniang, and comforted him with a little worry: "Sister Hui, don't worry, this green ring snake is not poisonous."

"No, that's not the point." Su Huiniang roared a little frantically, then quickly picked up her bamboo frame, and said in a hurry: "Well, it's getting late! Let's go home." Wang Qilang looked She glanced at her, and suddenly felt that Sister Hui was so cute, like... well, like a frightened little rabbit.Suddenly an impulse came to his lips, Wang Qilang said: "Sister Hui, do you want to go to the place where I used to live?"

Su Huiniang was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, and then said without hesitation: "Yes!" The further she walked in the forest, the more trees became more and more gloomy. Holding Wang Qilang's little hand, Su Huiniang felt that without him leading the way, she would [-]% get lost in this overwhelming jungle.

"Is this where you used to live?" Looking at the cave in front of her, Su Huiniang asked in amazement.

"Hmm!" Wang Qilang was like a child who invited a child to his home for the first time, a little proud, and a little proudly declared: "This is my secret base." Su Huiniang thought that this place is really secret enough.It can be seen that there are many traces of life in the cave, including thick mats laid with hay, a bed, a few rough porcelain bowls with cut-out holes, clay pots, and some firewood piled up in relatively dry places. Several pheasants and ducks that had been processed and air-dried wobbled and fell on a protruding rock wall. Su Huiniang put down the bamboo basket on her shoulders, looked up and down, inside and out, and said: "It's not bad. Yes!"

When Wang Qilang heard the words, a proud expression appeared on his small face, as if he had taken it for granted.He led her to sit down, and the child jumped up and down near the haystack, squatted on it and picked it up and down, and came out with a bundle after a while.Su Huiniang glanced at him suspiciously, stretched out her hand to take it, opened it, and found that there were two things in it, a tattered book rolled up by the door, and a pure white, shining fluorescent book. jade pendant.Su Huiniang is not that woman who has never seen the world, let's not talk about the book, just this jade pendant, she knew it must be extraordinary, she asked in amazement: "Where did it come from?"

Sadness flashed across Wang Qilang's face, and he said in a low voice: "When my father died, he secretly left these two things to me without telling Pi and the others. He said they were left to me by my biological parents, so I should keep them safe. .”

After hearing this, Su Huiniang knew that the father he was talking about should be the dead Wang Tiezhu.Regarding this person, Su Huiniang had heard the third aunt talk about him a few times. He was an honest and kind farmer. In terms of personality, the eldest son of the Wang family should have followed him somewhat.Basically, the whole Wangjiaao knew that Wang Qilang was not the child of Wang Tiezhu and Pi Shi, but how could Wang Qilang not be aware of it with his own intelligence?Su Huiniang sighed lightly, her brows were filled with distress, and she said softly, "Would you like to talk about it?"

Wang Qilang shrugged his shoulders indifferently, sat down next to Su Huiniang, and said bluntly: "A few years ago, there were wars everywhere outside. One day, a man came to Wang's house and gave a baby to a The farmer, let him raise the child well, the farmer agreed, but after four or five years, the man did not come back, everyone said he was dead and would not come back, and then the farmer also died, so... ...It became what it is now." Needless to say, that farmer is Wang Tiezhu, and that man should be Wang Qilang's biological father.

"Xiaoqi, do you really want to see your father and mother?" Su Huiniang asked softly.

Unexpectedly, Wang Qilang replied very simply and neatly: "I don't want to!"

Su Huiniang was taken aback, and thought, maybe this child thought he was abandoned, so he started to harbor resentment.

"I only have one father. His surname is Wang, and his name is Wang Tiezhu. Although he is a bit stupid, he treats me well. Without a mother, that kind of thing is nothing. I don't care about it at all." Wang Qilang looked at Su Huiniang. But Yuxue's face was full of vicious paranoia: "As for the biological parents, there is no need to mention it. If they die, I will kowtow to the world three times every Qingming, and I will repay them If the grace of giving birth is not dead..." Wang Qilang sneered: "Then there is no need to worry about it."

"Little Seven..."

"To me, they are just insignificant strangers!" Wang Qilang looked at the sad Su Huiniang, suddenly changed the subject, and said softly in his voice full of nostalgia: "And Xiaoqi and Sister Hui !" His sister Hui is the best, best, best person in this world, as long as she is there, he doesn't need anything else.

After listening to Wang Qilang's words, Su Huiniang looked particularly moved, a sour and sweet feeling rushed into her heart, it turns out that it feels so good to be relied on and regarded as an important person!
For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire cave was full of emotional reverberations. It took a long time before Su Huiniang regained her composure. She raised her hand and patted his little head as usual. Here, he put his eyes on the old book on his lap again.

"Huo's boxing manual..." Su Huiniang frowned, she did not expect this to be a secret book of martial arts.When I opened it, I found that there were many plausible formulas and essentials written on it, and there were more than a dozen simple drawings of little people in various poses.

"This book is really useful!" Seeing that Su Huiniang didn't seem to understand, Wang Qilang hurriedly explained, "I've practiced drawing pictures of villains on it every day since I was six years old, and within half a year, I felt that my body has gained strength. He also runs faster than before, and his whole body is always hot, even if there are two or three people who are older than me, they are no match for him!" Wang Qilang raised his eyebrows, and his tone was quite smug.
