Chapter 389 The Hunter's Little Darling 50
When the urgent sounds ended, the moon was already high in the sky.
One of them had already fallen into a deep sleep.
When Xie Qingyu woke up, she felt refreshed, and Tu Shen had already laid out her clothes beside her.
Xie Qingyu felt that she could see it more clearly than before, and she could see the differences between the different fabrics on the clothes.
At this rate, it won't be long before we can see it completely.
When Xie Qingyu finished dressing and went to the yard, Tu Shen was already chopping wood.
There is no shortage of firewood on the mountain, but Tu Shen rarely picks up those branches. Instead, he neatly chops up a lot of firewood and stacks it there, which looks pleasing to the eye.
He is currently preparing for winter.
Winter is not a good time to go out and gather firewood, so it's more convenient to stock up now.
Seeing Xie Qingyu stand up, he put down the axe in his hand and came over.
"Did you sleep well?" Tu Shen asked, leaning closer.
Xie Qingyu nodded; there couldn't be anything better than this.
There's no mother-in-law or anyone else at home, so she can sleep as long as she wants without being disturbed. How could she not sleep well?
"Then you should wash up first, and I'll bring you your food," Tu Shen said.
It can no longer be considered morning. Tu Shen always takes a long time, and once or twice is not enough, so he goes a bit too far. Xie Qingyu also gets up a little later.
When her cousin came over, she didn't expect Xie Qingyu to be eating.
"You're here. Would you like something to eat?" Xie Qingyu asked upon hearing her cousin's footsteps.
"I ate at home." My cousin's voice was a little soft, and her mood wasn't as good as when she came before.
"Your brother bought some pastries when he went down the mountain the day before yesterday. They're quite delicious. You should try them," Xie Qingyu said, asking Tu Shen to fetch some pastries.
"Thank you, sister-in-law," my cousin said politely, but she still looked listless.
When Tu Shen placed the pastries on the table, his cousin looked up at him and asked, "Brother, did you see her push my sister-in-law?"
"Ah."
"I'm here to apologize." Her cousin looked at Xie Qingyu, her eyes slightly red.
This all happened so suddenly. She didn't sleep well last night, feeling like she was the one who had harmed Xie Qingyu, but Xie Qingyu was fine, and it was Ma Erya who was in trouble. But it seemed like this whole thing was Ma Erya's fault.
Although it seems like it has nothing to do with her no matter how you look at it, she still seems like she should apologize.
The moment she spoke, Xie Qingyu understood what she was thinking.
It's normal for a naive child to feel a little lost when caught in such a complicated situation.
"No need to apologize. This has nothing to do with you, and you didn't do anything wrong," Xie Qingyu said.
The girl is good in every way, but it's not a good thing that she tends to take the blame for things when they happen.
"If only I hadn't brought her to your house." My cousin finally realized her mistake.
"This is none of your business. If that's the case, then it's my fault for allowing her to come to my house," Xie Qingyu said.
“No…” My cousin quickly retorted when she heard Xie Qingyu say that, knowing that Xie Qingyu was only doing this to make her not feel guilty.
"So this is none of your business." Xie Qingyu's voice was so firm that it gave people a strange sense of strength.
This seemed to calm my somewhat uneasy cousin down, and she finally reached out and took a piece of pastry to eat.
Seeing that Xie Qingyu had convinced her in just a few words, Tu Shen, who was standing to the side, went back to his work and didn't disturb the two of them talking.
“In the morning, Grandma was already preparing things for her wedding. The betrothal gifts from the other side have also been delivered, along with a lot of grain,” my cousin said as she ate, mentioning things that made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"She's getting married just like that? I thought she'd only stay here for a few days and then come down the mountain. What's so great about the mountain?" my cousin said.
"You think she's lost her memory now, which is why she agreed to the marriage. If she hadn't lost her memory, she would have gone home, right?" Xie Qingyu could always easily sense the subtle emotions in a young girl's heart.
My cousin nodded again, but seemed a little embarrassed.
Ma Erya pushed her cousin-in-law into the water, and now her words seem to express some sympathy for Ma Erya. I wonder if her cousin-in-law will mind.
In fact, Xie Qingyu understood her cousin's personality, which is why she could understand why she had such thoughts.
“She won’t come down the mountain. She stole grain from her family before she went up the mountain, and she caused a lot of trouble at home. Her grandmother originally wanted to sell her to a slave trader, but somehow she ended up on the mountain. Even if she doesn’t lose her memory, she doesn’t plan to go home.” Xie Qingyu told her what she knew to comfort her.
My cousin's feelings can't be said to be on Ma Erya's side, but rather stem from a kind heart, subconsciously feeling sorry for Ma Erya's helplessness.
"Moreover, she shouldn't have lost her memory," Xie Qingyu said finally.
As soon as she said that, her cousin stopped eating the pastries and stared at Xie Qingyu without moving, as if waiting for her explanation.
Xie Qingyu repeated what she had said to Tu Shen, and finally said to her cousin, "She should still be staying at your house waiting to get married tomorrow. You can take this time to observe her and see if she really has amnesia."
"How do we observe?" my cousin asked instinctively.
"Observe her behavior. If she doesn't remember anything, she naturally won't know where some things are, how to use some things, or some small habits. You can observe these things." Xie Qingyu gave her a little hint.
My cousin couldn't sit still any longer. She stood up and said to Xie Qingyu, "I'm going back to check right now!"
Her voice was much louder than when she arrived, and she stood up and left.
Xie Qingyu didn't even finish her sentence before Tu Shen, who was chopping wood, was startled by her voice.
Her cousin acted immediately. When she returned, Ma Erya was sitting in the main room listening to Granny Tu tell her how close she and Ma Erya were, and how reluctant she was to part with Ma Erya...
My cousin didn't go in either; she just found a job outside and kept an eye on the house.
She could see the fleeting impatience on Ma Erya's face, a look of disdain for Butcher's words.
When she finally finished speaking, Butcher let Ma Erya get up.
Ma Erya returned to her room, which was also her cousin's room.
My cousin followed me into the house, seemingly busy with her hands, but actually keeping her eyes on Ma Erya out of the corner of her eye.
Watching her skillfully take her own things, my cousin was shocked; she actually knew which things were hers.
She really didn't have amnesia.
My cousin couldn't tell if she was disappointed or angry; she just felt heartbroken.
My sister-in-law guessed right.
She now began to feel aggrieved on Xie's behalf.
She's going to tell others about this!
