These conditions offered by Zhang Shubao are indeed very tempting to Zhou Yuqin.
She has been paralyzed in bed for a long time. This feeling is worse than death. If there is hope to stand up again, who wouldn't want to try?
But thinking about Zhang Xiaojian's appearance, he also thought that his daughter was already so pitiful, and he couldn't let her be pitiful for the rest of her life.
"Village Chief, thank you for your kindness. My Yunmei is still young. She has no plans to find a partner, let alone get married so early..."
This sentence was meant to give Zhang Shubao face. Of course Zhang Shubao understood it, and his expression immediately turned ugly.
"Yu Qin, please think clearly. If you don't agree to this marriage, you two will go hungry if you don't have subsistence allowance in the future..."
Zhou Yuqin couldn't help but sneer. Fortunately, she didn't agree, otherwise she would have pushed her own daughter into the fire pit. For an old vixen like Zhang Shubao, as long as his daughter gets married, I'm afraid his promise will be worthless.
"Village chief, please go back, I want to rest..." At this time, Zhou Yuqin drove people away.
"Okay, you will regret it..."
Zhang Shubao's angry face was very ugly. Even if he was rejected by Li Yunmei, he didn't expect to be rejected by this paralytic. He would rather stay in bed for the rest of his life than agree to his conditions.
"What are you looking at? Let's go, let them regret it all in their intestines..." Zhang Shubao angrily pulled Chen Cuiju away.
"Take your candy away..." Zhou Yuqin said at this time.
Chen Cuiju turned back angrily, took the candy and left. Before going out, she even spit out a mouthful of phlegm.
At this time, in Heishanling behind, two guys were hiding under a big tree and having a barbecue.
"Zhang Xiaojian, this time I roasted bird meat for you to eat. You have to help me with something tomorrow..."
Liu Shitou sat on a bluestone slab and said while chewing on the roasted bird leg.
At this time, Zhang Xiaojian was sitting next to the fire. This guy had a dark face. When he was lighting the fire, he was lying on the ground blowing on the fire. The smoke was so thick that he couldn't even open his eyes.
"Yeah, yeah, delicious, delicious..." Zhang Xiaojian nodded while nibbling on the bird's neck.
Originally Liu Shitou wanted to send Zhang Xiaojian home, but he didn't expect that this guy ran so fast that Liu Shitou couldn't catch him at all.
Liu Shitou had no choice but to think of this good idea and attracted Zhang Xiaojian over. As expected, this fool was also a foodie. He automatically came over when he smelled the aroma of roasted bird meat, and even helped to collect firewood and light the fire, just to have a bite to eat.
"Um, Xiaojian, do you have an iron box at home?" Liu Shitou asked casually while eating.
Although Zhang Xiaojian was a fool, he still knew some things. He nodded immediately, but had no time to speak and was just nibbling on the bird's neck.
"Hey, idiot, talk..." Liu Shitou kicked him, but Zhang Xiaojian was not afraid of pain at all. In order to eat more bird meat, this guy would rather be beaten than go away.
Liu Shitou was helpless and had no choice but to say: "Damn it, do you still want to eat more bird meat?"
"Huh? Come to think of it, I want to eat meat..." This guy was a little slurred, but he made his words very clearly.
"If you want to eat more meat, Baba, then help me take out a book from the iron box, and I will reward you with three roasted birds. How about that?" Liu Shitou began to seduce Zhang Xiaojian.
Liu Shitou has a slingshot. He has been in the mountains for a long time and is a good bird hunter. It is easy to catch a few birds.
"Benben?" Zhang Xiaojian scratched his head, not understanding it for a moment.
"In the iron box where your mother and I put the money, there is a small red notebook. If you take it out and give it to me, I will eat the bird meat. Do you understand..."
Liu Shitou was talking and making gestures to Zhang Xiaojian.
The fool seemed to understand. He nodded quickly, and then continued to gnaw on the bird meat and bones. Even the bones Liu Shitou left behind after eating and threw them on the ground were picked up and gnawed away.
"Let me tell you, your food is pretty good, but it's like a starving ghost..." Liu Shitou was speechless for a while.
Liu Shitou didn't have much hope for what he asked a fool to do, he was just trying his luck.
In the afternoon, Zhang Tiezhu and Li Yunmei came down from the mountain. When Liu Shitou saw the two people, he immediately stood up, clapped his hands and walked over.
"Hey, what have you been doing on the mountain? You've been here for most of the day. You can't just pick a few herbs..."
Liu Shitou is a guy who has no control over his mouth. After hearing these words, Li Yunmei immediately turned red. Without her needing to answer, she could tell that these two people were doing bad things on the mountain.
"Young Master Shitou is talking nonsense, why are you still here and haven't sent him back?" Zhang Tiezhu looked at Zhang Xiaojian not far behind Liu Shitou, and suddenly felt a headache.
This guy almost married his senior sister. Although it was his father who committed the crime, if it hadn't been for this fool, all these troubles would not have happened.
Logically speaking, both Zhang Tiezhu and Li Yunmei should hate this fool, but seeing Zhang Xiaojian's silly look, they really couldn't hate him anymore.
"Tie Zhu, what you said is simple. Do you think fools are so easy to deal with? Grandma is so fierce and can run faster than a rabbit. If she hadn't shot a few birds to fool him, I don't know where she would have gone by now.
…”
Liu Shitou scratched his scalp and immediately left several dark marks on his forehead.
"It's better for you, we are having barbecue here, Yun Mei and I are still hungry..." Zhang Tiezhu stopped caring about Liu Shitou, and walked down the mountain with Yun Mei.
"Hey, I, I'm just trying to coax the fool..." Liu Shitou quickly followed him, fearing that Zhang Tiezhu would really ignore him, this gangster.
"Stop talking nonsense, send the fool back..." Zhang Tiezhu was still worried that something might happen to Zhang Xiaojian alone on the mountain, so he had to hand over this arduous task to Liu Shitou again.
Liu Shitou was helpless and had to stop.
"Hey, you idiot, come with me quickly..." Liu Shitou pointed at Zhang Xiaojian and yelled angrily, venting his anger on the idiot's head.
However, Zhang Xiaojian seemed to be very obedient after eating the bird meat. Although Liu Shitou was extremely cruel to him, the guy still followed Liu Shitou down the mountain with a silly smile.
"Your grandma... isn't very stupid. You know you can get meat by following me..." Liu Shitou was speechless for a while looking at Zhang Xiaojian who was following behind him with a smile.
After arriving at the bottom of the mountain, Zhang Tiezhu said: "Mei Yun, come to my house for dinner. After dinner, we will go to treat your mother."
"I'm not going. I'll go back and wash the herbs first. Come over after you eat..."
After Yunmei finished speaking with a blushing face, she turned around and walked quickly towards her home. Although the relationship between the two of them was very close when they were on the mountain, Li Yunmei was still very shy in the village.
