Chapter 169 (1/2)

Gu Mian nodded, thinking of the first time he saw Meng Xingzhu.

That time was in her high school, said to be high school, but because she was with Dai Shiqi, Gu Mian went to senior one at the age of 13. Su Lianyun just wanted Gu Mian to follow Dai Shiqi and drive away the boys pursuing her for her.

It was a May Day holiday. Dai Shiqi, several close female classmates and several boys from the military compound came out for an outing. Although they didn't tell their family, Gu Mian knew that the place they were going to was ghost valley.

Gu Mian didn't want to go. Dai Shiqi was just tired of Gu Mian following her ass all day. Gu Mian couldn't go. She was happy, but later she didn't know why. Dai Shiqi had to call the roll and take Gu Mian.

At that time, Gu Mian had no right to say no, so she followed Dai Shiqi and his party out of the door. At the foot of the mountain of ghost Valley, Gu Mian found that it was su Aochi. He had been waiting here for a long time. Dai Shiqi had to bring himself out, which was the reason for Su Aochi.

That time, Su Aochi took Gu Mian into the ghost Valley alone. Gu Mian didn't know why he took himself into the ghost Valley, but the two of them lost their direction in the fog. At that time, Su Aochi was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Because of long-term fatigue and mental worry, when the night came, he turned pale, Start a low fever.

Gu Mian was very afraid at that time. Su Aochi sat on the ground again and couldn't move, so Gu Mian had to light a fire, hoping that someone could see it and come to help them.

It was at that time that Meng Xingzhu appeared. At that time, she was still a little girl wearing a green cotton dress. The little girl was carrying a basket full of wild mushrooms she picked.

After seeing Gu Mian and Su Aochi, she was not afraid. She came up and asked, ”are you lost?”

Later, Meng Xingzhu led the way. Gu Mian held Su Aochi and followed him to Meng Xingzhu's home.

At that time, Gu Mian thought that Su Aochi was just for fun. In fact, Su Aochi thought so, but sometimes people didn't know their feelings.

”There were only two mud houses here before, but now they are replaced by brick houses.” Thinking of the past, Gu Mian felt some emotion.

Meng Xingzhu explained, ”the mud house was washed down by a rainstorm a few years ago. Brother Su asked someone to build this small yard for us.”

As he spoke, Meng Xingzhu scooped corn egg soup into a small bowl.

Gu Mian nodded and found that he hadn't seen Meng Xingzhu's mother come out for a long time. He was a little surprised and asked, ”Xingzhu, your mother...”

Gu Mian still remembers that Su Aochi felt terrible that time. Meng Xingzhu's mother cured him.

Meng Xingzhu's smiling eyes darkened and said, ”she died three years ago.”

Gu Mian was silent and expressed grief. She took the soup handed over by Meng Xingzhu and said with some guilt: ”I'm sorry, I don't know...”

Gu Mian thought he was miserable enough. Unexpectedly, Meng Xingzhu was even more miserable than himself at a young age.

But Meng Xingzhu didn't have much sadness. She lived in this mountain forest with her mother since childhood. All the education Meng Xingzhu received came from her innocent mother.

Therefore, she seems indifferent to life, old age and death, but after her mother left, she was left here, so she was still very lonely.

”It's all right, sister Gu. I'm used to it. Brother Su often comes to see me. It's not. I brought you this time.”
