After Ye Shihan left Xiaoya's home, he went to the dock in the city and started working as a porter. At the same time, Xiaoya also started looking for him everywhere.
Grandpa was quite dissatisfied with this and tried to reason with her every day.
"Xiaoya, then Xiaozhu is not from the same group as us. Can you stop thinking about him? Zhou Xiucai is going to Beijing to take the exam soon. If you don't get married to him now, wait until he really passes the exam.
If you win the top prize, it will be too late for you to regret it."
"I do not regret."
Xiaoya's attitude was resolute, "I want to find Brother Zhu. He will only leave after hearing what we two said that night. I want to find him and explain to him."
"Is there any explanation?" Grandpa's voice suddenly rose, "Although that Xiao Zhu seems to be a good person, he has a good appearance. Even if he is not a son of an official, he must be from a famous family. We cannot afford such a person.
, you won’t have a good life if you follow him.”
"But he doesn't remember who he is. Now he doesn't have any relatives. He would be in danger if he was alone outside."
"How can he be in danger if he knows kung fu? Your Aunt Zhou will come soon, and we will arrange the marriage directly."
"No." Xiaoya suddenly stood up angrily and glared at her grandfather, "I want to decide for you, but I can't."
After leaving these words, she quickly walked out of the courtyard. Grandpa could only look at her back and sigh, and then shouted:
"Don't run too far away, this matter is not up to you."
Grandpa's words were forgotten by Xiaoya, and she resolutely went down the mountain again. She had walked this road down the mountain countless times since Brother Zhu left. She only hoped to meet him on this road.
But he seemed to have disappeared and could not be found.
Xiaoya was thinking as she walked that she must not marry Zhou Xiucai. The person she really liked was Brother Zhu. She didn't care even if Brother Zhu had a wife. As long as she could see him every day, she would be satisfied.
Thinking like this, her face turned red unconsciously.
In the distance, Zhou Xiucai, his mother and Matchmaker Zhang were walking up the mountain while talking.
From a distance, Zhou Xiucai saw Xiaoya, and he shouted hurriedly:
"Mom, look, Xiaoya must be here to greet us."
His shout was heard by Xiaoya. She took a closer look and saw that what grandpa said was indeed true. This week Xiucai and Aunt Zhou really brought the matchmaker.
No, she must not meet them, otherwise she would not be able to escape today, and grandpa would have to let her and Zhou Xiucai choose a day to get married.
Thinking of this, she looked around and saw a fork in the road around her. Although it was overgrown with weeds, it was still better than being caught going up the mountain to get married.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but run towards the path. Zhou Xiucai hurriedly shouted:
"Xiaoya, I'm here, where are you going? We are here, we are here..."
How could Xiaoya care about his screams? It was too late for her to escape.
She followed the difficult fork all the way down, and she didn't feel at ease until she could no longer hear Zhou Xiucai's cry.
It seemed that she couldn't go home tonight, otherwise grandpa would not give her good fruits to eat. Thinking of this, she strengthened her confidence in going down the mountain to find Brother Zhu, and murmured:
"I won't come back if I can't find Brother Zhu this time, hum!"
As she walked, she got lost and sprained her feet. By the time she got down the mountain, she was covered in scars, her hair was messy, and her face had a few scratches from branches.
In the evening, she finally arrived in the city, but she was penniless. She didn't know where to go. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people walking on the street, she felt a little panicked.
Standing on the empty street, she didn't know what to do. She squatted on the ground and started crying.
"Brother Zhu, where are you? Where are you?"
During the day, Ye Shihan went to the dock to carry bags for others to earn some money. At night, he would return to the city and stay in a small inn. He often visited the largest drug store in the city. The doctor there determined that if he took his medicine on time, he would be able to regain his memory in half a year.
, whether it is true or false, he has to believe it. He is now eager to know who he is.
From a distance, he saw a man squatting on the ground, holding on to the ten cents he just got today, and his kindness overflowed again.
Today's wages are a bit low, there is not much work on the dock, but there are many people competing for work. He is not willing to compete with others for work. Usually people who know him well come to call him and know that he is strong.
But it was getting so late, and the man in front of him, dressed in rags, was still squatting on the street. It seemed that he was a homeless beggar.
He walked over, put the copper coins in his hand in front of her, turned and left.
Xiaoya felt that someone had come, and a familiar feeling came to her heart. She looked up hurriedly, and when she saw the figure from behind, she shouted in a low voice:
"Brother Zhu."
Ye Shihan had already walked far away and did not hear her call. She hurriedly picked up the ten cents from the ground and chased after him quickly. When she was about to catch up with him, she shouted:
"Brother Zhu..."
This time Ye Shihan heard it clearly. He frowned and turned back. When he saw Xiaoya, who was all in tatters, his brows instantly knitted together.
"Xiaoya, why is it you?"
When Xiaoya saw Brother Zhu who was thinking about him day and night, her nose felt sore and tears fell down her cheeks. She rushed to him in one stride and hugged him tightly.
"Brother Zhu Zai, I finally found you. I thought I would never see you again in this life."
The familiar woman in front of him hugged him tightly. Although Ye Shihan knew that men and women were different, this feeling of being reunited after a long separation still made him feel very friendly. He raised his hand to push her away and asked in surprise:
"Xiaoya, what happened to you? How did you become like this?"
"Uh huh..."
Xiaoya started crying directly, "Brother Zhu, I had such a hard time looking for you."
With just this sentence, Ye Shihan already understood that Xiaoya's behavior must be caused by coming to see him.
He felt a little more guilty for her.
"Xiaoya, I'm sorry, you shouldn't have come to me."
"No."
Xiaoya shook her head vigorously, "No matter where you go, I will look for you. Brother Zhu, I like you, please stop hiding from me, okay? No matter who you are, whether you have a wife or not, I don't care, I
I really like you, even if you let me be a girl by your side."
Xiaoya's words stunned Ye Shihan. He didn't expect that she would say these words to him directly. He even took two steps back unexpectedly.
"No, Xiaoya, don't be impulsive. I don't even know who I am. If you tell me this, I won't make any promises to you."
"I don't want your promise." Xiaoya pressed forward step by step, "I just want to be with you, as long as you are with me. I don't want promises, and I don't want you to be in trouble, as long as you let me stay with you.
