The wood kept giving the stone looks, but unfortunately, the stone didn't understand at all.
Mu Tou had no choice but to cough twice awkwardly and point his chin behind Shi Tou.
Shitou finally understood and looked back.
I saw a person standing behind me without knowing when.
Shitou silently complained, this person is so quiet, is there anything wrong with her? Doesn't she know that scaring others can kill them?
Instantly, Shitou thought of a possibility: Did this girl also want to rest on the big rock? Was she too embarrassed to speak up when she saw the two brothers here?
"Girl, do you want to sit down? We brothers are leaving now."
Shitou picked up the wood and was about to leave. The girl was anxious and subconsciously said, "Don't you remember me?"
The girl's face was slightly pale, and she didn't know if it was because of the cold or because she was tired from climbing the mountain, but she was actually blushing a little.
She stood about one meter away from the stone, looking at it shyly.
Shitou was confused: Who is this person? He really doesn't know him!
"you are?"
The girl looked at the tall and strong boy in front of her with full expectation, but the boy didn't recognize her?
The girl was a little disappointed, "You really don't remember me?"
"Miss, I'm sorry for my poor eyesight. I really can't remember where I've seen you before. Do you know me?"
The girl suppressed the urge to cough, lowered her head shyly, and stared at the tip of her shoes.
"A few days ago, you helped me in front of the grocery store in the county town!"
A few days ago? At the entrance of a county town grocery store?
Shitou searched through his memory, but still couldn't remember who this girl was.
The girl's face was filled with even more disappointment. "A few people almost pushed me down, but you held me up. Otherwise, I would have fallen to the ground."
After the girl said this, Shitou vaguely remembered that this seemed to be the case.
However, he did remember the incident, but he really didn't pay attention to whether the person who helped was a man or a woman, old or young, or what he looked like.
"Those are just small matters. Everyone gets into trouble sometimes when they are out. It is normal for me to lend a hand. Don't take it to heart, girl."
The girl lowered her head even lower, and suddenly, as if she thought of something, she shyly raised her head again and looked at the stone.
"You, you are from Tianjia Village, and your name is Tian Shitou?"
Shitou was confused. Was he really that famous? Even a girl he didn't know knew his name?
"I'm from Tianjia Village, and my name is Tian Shitou. Miss, I just lent a hand to what happened that day, it's nothing at all."
She asked the grocery store owner about Shi Tou's name and origin that day. The girl's heart was set on Shi Tou the moment he helped her.
After she returned home, she told her parents that she wanted to marry Tian Shitou.
At first, Qi Lishan and his wife did not agree. They had no idea where Tian Shitou came from.
Later, it was Qi Lishan who asked someone to find out about Tian Danian's situation.
After thoroughly understanding the situation, Qi Lishan and his wife asked a matchmaker to propose marriage.
Unfortunately, Qi Lishan and his wife thought that it was a sure thing, but they did not expect to be rejected by the Tian family.
Qi Lishan has had some reputation in Pinglin County over the years. No one has ever dared to offend him like this, especially when it comes to his children's marriage.
However, since the other party doesn't appreciate it and looks down on my daughter, there is no point in getting married.
After a while, he will find someone better for his daughter.
As for what the Tian family said about "she is too high to marry" and wanting to "wait for some time before introducing her to their son", Qi Lishan was not a fool and naturally knew that it was an excuse.
Today, the mother and daughter of the Qi family came to Pudu Temple. One reason was to pray for peace and happiness for their family, and the other was to worship the Bodhisattva, praying for their daughter's health and early marriage.
Seeing that the girl didn't leave and just stood there with a red face, the stone and wood felt helpless.
"Brother, I can't sit still anymore, why don't we go find dad."
Mu Tou was very smart and immediately asked to leave.
"Wait, I have another thing to ask you." Qi Yun'er spoke hesitantly.
"Ask me?" Shitou felt puzzled. This girl was too clingy. He really was just lending a hand out of kindness at the time and had no other intention.
Even if the other person is not a young girl, but an old woman or a young child, he will still help.
"Girl, is there anything else?"
Qi Yun'er looked up suddenly. She didn't know when, her eyes were filled with tears. She looked aggrieved and pitiful.
"I have one more thing to ask you."
"Girl, tell me."
"Why did you reject my family's marriage proposal?"
What marriage? Shitou felt that this girl was talking nonsense. If she had anything to say, she could just say it openly. She just kept saying things that he didn't understand.
"A girl's marriage? I don't understand!"
Qi Yuner bit her lip. "I'm from Xiaoling Village. My father calls me Qi Lishan. A few days ago, he asked a matchmaker to go to your house to propose marriage. I just want to ask you - why don't you agree? I, I -"
Qi Yun'er's heart was beating fast, and her face had some color because of nervousness, embarrassment and shyness.
Shitou suddenly realized that this girl was Qi Lishan’s daughter—the girl who fell in love with him and wanted to marry him?
Mu Tou also understood. It turned out that this girl was the one that the matchmaker had proposed to his eldest brother a few days ago.
He was a little anxious because his elder brother was an honest man and his parents had already rejected the marriage. His elder brother must not be fooled by the girl's sweet words.
Shitou, however, is clear-headed. "Only my parents have the final say on marriage. I'll do whatever they say."
The girl's eyes lit up. "You mean - you agree, but your parents don't? Did they hear that I'm not in good health? In fact, I -"
"No, no, no!" Shitou waved his hands quickly. "No," Shitou struggled with his words, afraid of hurting the girl's self-esteem. "After all, there is no chance for us. I hope you can find a good family that is equal to you. It's me who is not worthy of you."
"Ouch! Brother, I'm hungry. Let's go find dad."
Mu Tou was shocked. This girl was too bold. He decided to take his elder brother away quickly.
"Let's go."
The stone supported the wood and they ran down the mountain as if they were escaping.
If he looked back at this moment, he would definitely see Qi Yuner's pitiful and aggrieved eyes, always looking at him.
It was not until the two brothers ran a long way away that Mu Tou could not help laughing out loud.
"Brother, I just realized today that you are so charming that a young lady actually came to you. However, that girl was too bold. If it was my second sister or my youngest sister, if mother knew that they talked to other men like this, she would have beaten them so hard that they couldn't get off the bed for three days."
Shitou glanced at Mutou and said, "I don't know whether the second and youngest sisters can be beaten or not, but if you keep talking nonsense like this, mother will know and will definitely beat you so hard that you can't get off the bed for three days."
What the Shitou brothers didn't know was that after they had walked for a while, Qi Yun'er, who was standing there alone and feeling very aggrieved, actually didn't even fall down in one breath, but just bent over.
Fortunately, her mother had already prayed to the Buddha and asked for a peace talisman. When she saw her daughter about to faint, she ran over and supported her in time. Otherwise, something might have happened.
