Chapter 176 People in the Mountains The morning in the mountains comes early. As soon as it breaks, there are many birds singing on the branches on the mountain side. It is so noisy that Huo Ting'en cannot sleep deeply, so he simply gets up and walks out of the hut.
After the rain, deep in the mountains, just like a master's ink painting, the mountains are stacked, lush and green, and the clouds and mist are shrouded, just like a fairyland on earth. In addition, the fresh air is mixed with the fragrance of soil and green trees, which makes people feel relaxed and happy after living in the city for a long time.
Huo Ting'en seems to have discovered a fairyland on earth unintentionally
Although this square hut is simple, it still retains humanity and warmth. The smoke floating in the sky above the small kitchen is the best testimony of the host's hospitality.
Huo Ting'en walked into the small kitchen, which really opened his eyes. He had never seen such a kitchen. It was the oldest and simplest kitchen. The kitchen was not big. There was a large pot on the square stove and the stove was still connected.
Next to the stove is a water tank. Few people use this kind of thing nowadays. Next to the water tank is a simple desk, but they should use this desk.
cutting vegetables
"You're awake, breakfast will be ready soon." Bai Ruoxue was a little happy to see Huo Ting'en's arrival.
"What are you doing?" Huo Ting'en saw her squatting in front of the stove and blowing air into it.
A burst of thick smoke came out, choking Bai Ruoxue and coughing.
Huo Ting'en stretched out his hand, pulled her up and patted her back gently
"The fire in the stove is out, I have to light it again." After saying that, Bai Ruoxue squatted down again, poured some kerosene on the hay, lit the fire, and put it in. "All the dry firewood has been burned. It rained so heavily yesterday.
, the firewood outside is all wet, it’s particularly uncomfortable, cough cough cough.”
Huo Ting'en pulled her up again. "I'll do it." As soon as he squatted down, the thick black smoke made Huo Ting'en cough several times. His eyes were so smoked that he couldn't open them. Tears poured down his face. Huo Ting'en held his breath and stood up.
"Haha, look at you." Bai Ruoxue wiped his tears with a tissue, "If you can't do it, I will do it."
Huo Tingen suddenly held her hand and said, "Ayao~"
Bai Ruoxue's hand was held, and her heart beat faster for a moment, but when she heard A Yao, her heart sank, she shook her hand, took it out and said, "I told you, I'm not A Yao."
Huo Ting'en was startled for a moment and said, "I'm sorry." She was obviously A Yao, from top to bottom! But she kept saying she wasn't, and it didn't look like she was lying. So how could she prove that she was A Yao?
DNA, these three letters flashed in Huo Ting'en's mind. Just take Bai Ruoxue's hair or blood and compare it with Lin Zhendong's, and the result will come out immediately.
"You go and sit in the main hall. When breakfast is ready, I'll ask my mother to come for breakfast." Bai Ruoxue changed the subject and concealed the despair in her eyes. He came to see Ayao from the beginning. Don't be disappointed, don't be sad~ Huo Ting'en sat in the main hall.
, this so-called main hall just has one more table and a few more chairs than the hut. The others have the same earth walls as the hut. Huo Ting'en can't help but worry that if the rain falls harder, all the houses will be washed away.
Bai Ruoxue helped her mother out. Huo Ting'en officially met Bai Ruoxue's so-called mother, an old woman with white hair who seemed to be blind.
As soon as Huo Tingen stood up, she said: "Sit down, we don't have such rules in the mountains."
Huo Ting'en smiled and asked, "You can't see, how do you know I'm standing up?"
"Although I can't see, my ears are very good." Bai Mu said with a smile: "It's a small place, there is nothing good to greet you, don't dislike it."
"Where, am I disturbing you?"
"I heard Ruoxue say, are you here to find someone?" Bai's mother is still calm and easy-going. Huo Ting'en has been observing carefully but does not see any signs of lying. If Bai Ruoxue and her mother are telling the truth,
, so is this woman who looks exactly like Lin Yao really not Lin Yao?
"No, I found the wrong person. The person I found looks very similar to your daughter."
"Haha, she looks very similar to our Ruoxue. She must be a beauty. I'm not exaggerating. Our Ruoxue is a flower on our mountain." When Bai Mu talked about her daughter, she felt very proud.
She is the first college student in our ridge to study outside. The people in the ridge are very proud of her." Bai Mu also knew that many young people in the ridge and in the school were in love with Ruoxue, but Ruoxue always had a crush on them.
Keep a respectful distance, let alone staying overnight, and are not willing to say more than a few words. They just keep a polite and distant distance. This time Ruoxue is actually willing to let this man stay at home. Their relationship must be unusual.
"Mom~ How can anyone praise their daughter like this in front of strangers? You're not ashamed." Bai Ruoxue came up with a pot of polenta and some steamed buns.
"Then how is my daughter? There are many young people in this mountain who like my daughter. But she is very high-spirited and looks down on those people. She is already 27 and has become an old girl. It makes me, the mother-in-law, anxious.
Fortunately, my girl finally has a friend. Haha, come and eat." When Bai Mu saw that Bai Ruoxue was willing to stay with Huo Ting'en, she always thought that he and her must be talking about friends. But now she still hides it from her and finds an excuse to say that she is here.
The one who is looking for someone wants to explore her voice and refuses to let her know. She just wants to show her attitude. As long as Ruoxue likes it, she will raise her hand to approve it.
Bai Mu was very enthusiastic: "Friend~ I don't know your name yet?"
"Forgot to introduce myself, my name is Huo Ting'en"
"Huo Ting En~ Are you Huo Ting En from Huo Yun?" Bai Ruoxue asked why she felt that the two words Ting En were so familiar. It turned out to be him.
"Yes~" Seeing Bai Ruoxue's surprised expression, Huo Ting'en just said yes lightly.
"Huo~Huo~Mr. Huo~" Bai Ruoxue was at a loss for words and stammered Huo Bu. She never thought that the aloof Huo Ting'en would actually show up at her home!
"Ruoxue, what's wrong with you?" Bai Mu also heard something was wrong.
"Don't be like this, be natural. I like you better yesterday. Don't let there be a gap between us because of my identity, okay?" Huo Ting'en had a lovely smile. Even an iceberg would melt with such a smile, let alone Bai Ruoxue.
My heart surged when I saw that he was speechless and could only nod his head blindly.
When Bai's mother heard this, she was very happy. Her daughter is already 27. A woman of her age in Lingshang has already been the mother of several children. She is still single now. How can a mother not worry about "You girl, how can you continue to do this?"
I haven’t figured out the identity of my boyfriend yet, but it’s a shame that he likes such a reckless girl like you.”
"Mom, what are you talking nonsense about? He is not my boyfriend, he is a donor to our school. He is Mr. Huo from Huo Yun. Mom, please be careful what you say." Bai Ruoxue's face was red, even to the roots of her ears.
Very cute and embarrassed, she took a peek at Huo Ting'en and found that Huo Ting'en was also looking at her. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole and get in right away.
"Mom knows that you are shy. There is no way for girls to stay in college. Mom understands that you don't need to be so secretive. Mom is very open-minded." Bai Mu blindly wanted to win over
Huo Ting'en was not in a hurry to clarify. Even the shy look of this girl was exactly the same as A Yao's. The more he watched, the more he thought it was Lin Yao!
"Brother Pork is coming soon. I'm going to buy some good meat and make something delicious for you at noon." Bai Ruoxue jumped up and ran away. It was so embarrassing. Although he didn't come to find her, she felt really different about him.
I felt very excited, and wanted to leave a good impression in his heart, but now I am so embarrassed. After Bai Ruoxue left, Bai Mu continued to sell: "Our family Ruoxue is really good, and she does a good job in housework."
, I’m very motivated at work, but it’s a pity that I’m 27 and still single.”
"Are you and Ruoxue the only ones in this family who depend on each other?"
"Yes, I only have a daughter. The old man died early. I took care of her by myself and earned money by washing clothes for others. It is not easy to send her to college. Now I only look forward to having a grandson as soon as possible.
Okay." Bai Mu sighed.
Huo Tingen looked at her. If she was still lying like this, then she could really win the Oscar. She was so natural that there was no flaw at all.
"There will be a day" Huo Ting'en comforted her. He was now more and more unsure whether Bai Ruoxue was Lin Yao.
"I feel relieved when I hear you say that." Bai Mu already regards Huo Ting'en as her son-in-law.
"Where has Ruoxue been for so long?" Huo Ting'en asked.
"The market. If you go to the east end of the yard, you can see the market."
Huo Ting'en walked out of the main hall and really saw Bai Ruoxue's familiar back from a distance. This market is too small. There are only a few vegetable stalls and a meat shop called a market.
Bai Ruoxue stood in front of the meat stall, waiting
The man selling pork kept his eyes wandering around Bai Ruoxue. His squinting look made Huo Tingen very unhappy.
After a while, Bai Ruoxue came back with vegetable baskets. She saw Huo Ting'en standing in the yard and said, "What are you doing standing here?"
"Can you buy so much and eat it all?" Huo Ting'en helped her carry it, and suddenly felt a shot coming. Looking along the feeling, it turned out that it was the pork seller who was staring at him, with a cold look in his eyes. He must have been very nervous.
shoot him
"If you can't finish it, put it in the small refrigerator. We only kill a pig here every three days. If you want to eat meat, you have to buy more and keep it."
Huo Ting'en also looked at the cold light, and accompanied Bai Ruoxue to put things into the small refrigerator with a playful smile.
When Bai Mu heard the young couple talking about each other, she was even more convinced of her idea.
