Heroine’s Road to Becoming Scum

Seventy-fourth bowl of soup (5)

The days are always better, except for one thing-since the man called Chuanzi came here, he basically came here every three to five times. Sometimes I sent some rice noodles, sometimes I picked up some game, and when I came, I helped A Chou pick water and reclaim the land, which was extremely diligent. The attitude towards the prince is also very good, even if the prince is indifferent to him, he hasn't even seen anyone's face, and he is polite to please him. A Chou has a dull personality. She made Shuanzi with her own hands when they gave so many things. She often brought back Shuanzi with her own herbs and dried meat and pickles. They came and went. I'm familiar with it.

But is the prince such a fool? It is weird that he can't see the idea of ​​emboli! As a result, he became increasingly reluctant to give Shuanzi a good face, and Shuanzi was also persistent, and he had to go to the house to say hello to the prince when he returned.

Shuanzi didn't come again until the heavy snow closed the mountain. When the snow melted and the mountain road was ready to go, he came to report again, carrying a few catties of freshly cut pork in his hand and a bag of rice on his back. A Chou and the others are indeed inconvenient for some things on the mountain, thanks to Shuanzi's help.

A Chou took the meat and went to the kitchen to cook. Shuanzi saw that she stuffed a lot of things into her basket, which made him a little discouraged. No matter what he brought to A Chou brothers and sisters, she would return it to him. To count it, I am afraid that the herbs she gave are more valuable. But this also made Shuanzi determine one thing again, that A Chou is really a good girl.

While A Chou was in the kitchen, Shuanzi straightened out the wrinkled corners of his clothes, patted the dust on his legs, and went into the room and talked to the prince through the tent: "That...big brother..."

The prince said coldly: "Who is your eldest brother."

Chuanzi was stabbed and scratched his head, "Then how should I call you?"

"Humph."

He didn’t know what to say, so he didn’t call it. He glanced at the kitchen and saw that Ah Chou hadn’t paid attention to the room. He quickly said to the prince: "I want to marry A Chou and be my wife. Don’t worry, Brother A Chou, I will designate it in the future. Raise you as your own brother, and I will treat you what A Chou treats you, and I will never teach you to live a hard life, you see—"

The prince interrupted him: "You deserve it too?"

Shuanzi was stunned. He didn't expect A Chou's brother to speak so unceremoniously. For a while, he didn't know how to answer and hesitated. The prince said again: "Where is the ignorant husband, you deserve to marry her. You have a reputation." There is still military merit in the body? A Chou marries you, and you will have to do the laundry and cook for you in the future. You have a good plan." After speaking, he had a meal and said, "A Chou will not marry."

Shuanzi was not happy to hear this: "A Chou will not be able to serve you if he doesn't marry? She has a hard time serving you as a girl. Now she can still serve you. After a few years, she will reach her age. I can't carry on my shoulders, I can't carry it, you two can't get through this life? I—"

"Fuck." The prince was impatient when he said. "I'll say it again, A Chou will not marry anyone."

Shuanzi was angry, he felt that he couldn't tell A Chou to go together. This man had a weird temper and was so unkind. He wanted to marry A Chou, so he could just tell A Chou? Thinking of this, he didn't care about being shy. He got up and went out. The prince heard his movement on the bed and wanted to chase him anxiously, but his upper body moved, but his legs were dead.

Yes, he is used to it, but today he still has to suffer from his crippled legs.

A Chou blanched the pork with water and cut it into slices, and marinated it in coarse salt for a while. At the same time, he was ready to season the stewed wild vegetables. He saw Chuanzi come in and said to her with a flushed face: "Ah. Ugly! I, I have something to tell you!"

Just say it, why are you so excited? A Chou smiled: "Don't worry, say something slowly."

Speak slowly? Then he dare not say it! In fact, this thought has been in Shuanzi's heart for a long time, he just didn't have the courage to mention it, and now he gritted his teeth: "Ahou, are you willing to be my wife?"

The spatula in A Chou's hand fell on the pan. She couldn't believe what she heard: "You, what did you say?"

"I want to marry you as a daughter-in-law." Shuanzi blushed, and habitually scratched his head, "Well, my parents have passed away long ago. I have three houses in my own village and several acres of paddy fields. If you are strong enough to hunt, and you have saved dozens of taels of silver, I, I will not teach you to endure hardship!"

Ah Chou smiled and smiled. She really didn't expect that someone would even want to marry her regardless of her ugly appearance. But it's a pity that she must refuse Shuanzi's kindness: "Brother Shuanzi, let me tell you the truth. I have no plans to marry. I have to take care of my brother."

"It doesn't matter, I can take care of it with you. There is a labor force at home, which is easier than you alone." Shuanzi was very persistent, "I think we two are always suitable."

A Chou sighed, "I look like this, I will embarrass you."

"I'm not afraid!" Shuanzi said seriously, "I think you are all right, you are the best girl I have ever seen."

A Chou has never heard anyone praise herself like this. Her face was slightly flushed, but she still shook her head: "I'm not married, Brother Shuanzi, you are so good, you can definitely find the right girl, I can't."

Shuanzi heard the possibility that she did not agree, and was extremely disappointed in her heart. He was not a stubborn person, silently, turned around and walked out. When A Chou made a meal, he realized that he was gone, even the herbs she gave. I didn't bring any jerky, but all the baskets were there.

The eyes she looked around made the prince displeased: "What are you looking for?"

"...It's nothing." She smiled, "His Royal Highness will eat while it is hot, and the servant maid made bone soup for His Highness today."

She carefully took out a bowl of thick and white bone soup and fed it to the prince with a spoon. He didn't know when he had the problem. She had to wait on him like this when taking medicine, otherwise he would not drink a bite.

The prince observed her expression while drinking soup, and then pretended to ask casually: "What did the villager tell you?"

A Chou froze for a while, only intending to prevaricate, not wanting to let His Royal Highness know these trivial things. "Your Highness, don't worry, it's just some interesting things that happened in the village."

She lied! The prince was cold, "Is that right? Then he didn't mention that he wanted to marry you as his wife?"

After being pierced by the prince, A Chou realized that Shuanzi had asked the prince to talk about it. She immediately put down the soup bowl and knelt down: "Your Highness, forgive me!"

The prince did not want her to kneel, "What's wrong with you?"

"The maidservant shouldn't let these trivial matters disturb His Royal Highness. Don't worry, your maid will not let him come over again in the future, Your Royal Highness..."

Before she finished speaking, the prince interrupted her: "Okay."

"?"

"It's not bad for him to come." The prince said such a sentence without thinking, A Chou tilted his head and didn't understand.

When she tilted her head, her eyes looked very simple and innocent, and she was actually very cute. The crown prince missed a beat so that she would not tell her that it was because of the emboli, and she didn't have to do a lot of rough work. "I'm going to eat."

"Yes."

Since that day, Shuanzi has never been here again. A Chou breathed a sigh of relief. The prince couldn't hide his inner joy, and he remained in a good mood. Winter has passed, and the mountains and forests have begun to show a vibrant scene. A Chou is also ready to go into the mountains to dig some fresh wild herbs and herbs. After eating the pickles for a long time, she can bear it, but she is wronged. So when the weather got better, she prepared a basket, rope and sickle and went out.

The prince didn’t worry about her every time. If she was not allowed to go, she would always take the time to secretly go. He was raised by her very well and had a normal schedule, but she could stay up all night. In short, Ah Chou listened very much. What he said, but she also had her own ideas, and even he couldn't change what she decided.

In fact, when Chuanzi wanted to marry A Chou, the prince almost let A Chou go, so that she could live a better life. She is so sensible and hardworking, she must be organized in order to take care of a family, but.

He is not willing.

The thought that A Chou would treat another man the same way he would treat him, the prince felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He has never been tainted with love, and he doesn't know what it means. He only knows that if this is the only way in this life, he just wants to be with Ah Chou.

Even if she has an ugly face, her heart is the most treasured treasure in the world.

He waited for Ah Chou at home as usual, thinking that she would bring him flowers when she came back. It’s winter and I haven’t seen flowers for a long time. She is cute and dull on weekdays. In fact, she is also a little girl and always likes it. Fragrant and beautiful things. It's a pity that he is no longer a superior prince, and can't give her anything. Then she should pick up some edible wild fruits, maybe she will catch a little rabbit or something and come back to relieve his boredom.

The rabbit I caught in the summer is fatter and can't be seen now. It eats more than A Chou, but doesn't do any work at all. It's really useless.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but squeeze the long ears of the rabbit on his lap, "You know what's the use, you know how to eat."

The rabbit blinked red eyes, very happy, yeah yeah, exactly like you, master.

But today it's somehow, it's getting dark and Ah Chou hasn't come back. She usually comes back at noon because she wants to make lunch for him. The prince had no intention of eating, he only felt a little flustered in his heart, and always had a bad premonition.

Waited for a while, until the top of the moon, the whole mountain forest was quiet and terrible, only the oil lamp crackled occasionally. The prince became more and more difficult, and couldn't help but wonder if she had encountered a beast? Or is it crippled? The mountain road is rugged, and the ice and snow are beginning to melt. What if you make a mistake?

Just when he was desperate, Ah Chou came back.

But when she came back, she was covered in dust. In the past, she sometimes came back dirty. But the first time she cleaned herself and then came to him, she rushed over today. The prince saw that her basket was not there. Back empty-handed.

Before he could ask, A Chou caught him: "His Royal Highness! The people of the Ninth Princes have entered the mountain!"
