The daughter-in-law's son-in-law

The old woman was short in stature, wearing blue clothes and carrying a basket, she looked at him incomprehensibly.

Chen Chong didn't expect that the other party couldn't understand his words, so he couldn't help but secretly anxious.

Seeing this, the young man relayed his words, the old woman shook her head, and left after answering.

"What did she say?" Chen Zhong forgot that he could speak Miao language.

The young man said: "She said she didn't know there was someone named Miao Xiaoqing."

"I don't know?" Chen Zhong was puzzled.

There are nearly a million villages in Huaguo, but there is only one called Nantazhai in Huacheng, so it shouldn't be wrong.

Because he was worried that there would be a language barrier and a misunderstanding, he asked the boy to stay.

Naturally, the young man is willing to continue to follow this rich boss, even if he doesn't give money later, he can still increase his knowledge.

The two approached the stockade and found that the people inside were busy with something.

"Boss, I just remembered that these days are the Youfang Festival, and the Miao Village will become very lively."

Chen Zhong didn't know much about this festival.

After explaining, I realized that Youfang is also called Youfang, and Miao adult men and women will use this festival to make friends and find the person they like.

It is usually carried out during the slack season, and many people will travel more than ten miles, or even dozens of miles, to other villages for their spouse.

The village at this time is the most cheerful and hospitable, and Chen Zhong's inexplicably worried heart relaxes a little.

After entering, they inquired about Miao Xiaoqing's residence one by one, but they didn't know, and someone mentioned Miao Qing.

Chen Zhong was a little confused, where would that person be?And unwilling to give up.

So he took out a pack of cigarettes, handed it to the middle-aged man next to him and said, "Brother, where does that Miao Qing live?"

When the middle-aged man saw that it was Hua Zi, he was surprised, and replied: "Miao Qing is also participating in the party, and I saw it under the trees by the bridge just now."

Chen Zhong was about to rush over.

"Young man, your clothes are not very good. I have here the clothes I wore when I participated in the parade when I was young. We are about the same size. You can wear them." The middle-aged man said kindly.

Chen Zhong thought that it would be too eye-catching for him to wear this outfit, so he agreed.

When they appeared in blue and yellow clothes, they made their eyes shine.

The boy praised: "Boss, you are so handsome!"

"Well, it's very demeanor like me back then, and if you show my extraordinary singing voice, you can marry the most beautiful girl home." The middle-aged man put his arm around the shoulder of the woman next to him and said, "I wish you good luck."

"Thank you." Chen Chong saw that although the middle-aged woman's complexion turned yellow, she could tell that she was a beauty, so she didn't bother to explain why and leave with the boy.

There were more than a dozen couples of young men and women under the tree by the bridge, some were singing to each other, some were talking to each other, and after a cheer, two couples held hands.

"Miao Xiaoqing!" Chen Chong called out.

Everyone turned their heads one after another, only to see a strange man, tall and unshaven, with melancholy in his eyes.

Women who don't have a partner can't help being tempted, while men are secretly vigilant, where is a competitor?
"Miao Qing, she's calling you, isn't she here just for you?" a girl called out.

A woman with flowers in her head doesn't have the heart to be with these men.

Hearing the cry, he turned his head, looking puzzled. He didn't know this person, so he thought it was a suitor who came here just because of his reputation.

Another woman hurriedly stopped Chen Chong and said, "If you want to pursue us Miao Qing, you have to meet a folk song first!"

"You are Miao Qing?" Chen Zhong looked extremely disappointed, "What about Miao Xiaoqing?"

Only then did everyone know that they were not looking for one person.

"Are you an outsider? We don't have this person in our village, did you remember the wrong place?" A woman asked.

It is also common for them to think that a man who is infatuated with Miao girls has come here.

Chen Zhong shook his head and remained silent, not knowing where to go for a while.

Suddenly a question came to mind, people would go to Empress Xian when they have difficulties, so why not just go to her?
Before she could speak, that Miao Qing hesitated and said: "Isn't the apprentice of the Immortal Lady named Miao Xiaoqing? Because the name is the same, I am more profound. Is she the person you are looking for?"

"Yes! That's her I'm looking for!" Excited, Chen Zhong grabbed her hand and asked, "Where does she live, can you take me there?"

"Let go of your hands!" a man said.

Chen Zhong realized the impoliteness, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm a little anxious."

Miao Qing didn't care about it either, but said puzzledly: "Why are you looking for Miao Xiaoqing? It is said that neither she nor her sister have ever been out of the mountains."

"I'm here to find my wife." Chen Zhong didn't explain.

If it was said that the extraordinary master had arrested her wife, no one would believe it.

He will even be treated like yesterday, and he will be kicked out, and those in these villages may be treated in a more ruthless way.

"Looking for a wife?" Everyone immediately associated it with wanting Miao Xiaoqing to be his wife.

Miao Qing said: "Miao Xiaoqing lives [-] miles away from here. There are people who will form a couple this afternoon, and they will go there to receive the blessing of the fairy lady. You can go with them."

Chen Zhong asked the boy if he knew the place, but he said that he had been here as far away as possible.

Lying on a pile of leaves, watching them continue to sing love songs, and then talk to each other and become partners.

At noon, a well-meaning person asked him to have dinner, but he didn't go, but just waited. People regarded him as a strange person.

Finally the two couples came out and followed behind.

However, he was not welcomed by several people, and he was accepted after giving all the money on his body.

One of the men warned: "Don't talk indiscriminately when you get to the place, even the apprentice of the Immortal Empress is too brave to recognize her as your wife."

The thirty-mile mountain road is not as easy to walk as on the flat ground, and it is almost time to cross a river.

After stopping and resting along the way, I finally heard the sound of rushing water, which was more than 40 meters away from the opposite side.

There was a boat tethered to the shore and swinging, and one person said that he needed to row it by himself.

The two men quickly untied the bamboo poles tied to one side and used them to board the boat.

A group of people went up immediately.

Chen Zhong suddenly felt a little unstable, and felt shaking from side to side, so he sat down immediately.

"Haha..." A man laughed, "It looks like a pampered urbanite, sit in a boat with a woman honestly."

I saw him standing at the bow of the boat, put the long bamboo pole into the water, and with a push, the boat moved away, and the man behind was also controlling it.

The two found a beautiful partner and were happy, and couldn't help singing.

The green hills on both sides of the river sandwiched the river, and the singing was loud in it, which also made Chen Zhong feel refreshed, and he didn't care about their targeting.

The man behind said: "The river water is not right today. It is much faster than usual, and it is very difficult to hold it up."

"Yes, everyone, sit still!" The man in front didn't dare to stand in front of him anymore, and was about to get down.

It's just that when he was in the middle of the boat, the water flow accelerated suddenly, causing the hull to become unstable, so that he didn't come down, but stepped into the air instead.

"what……"

A woman uttered a scream, and the person in front fell into the water at once, struggled twice, and was submerged.

The man who was still meeting to protect this life just now was dying in the blink of an eye, making the woman cry bitterly.

Immediately, what surprised the people on board even more was that the man who hadn't spoken much stood up and jumped into the river right after him.

"Boss, don't be overthinking it." The young man couldn't understand why people in this city wanted to commit suicide every now and then.

The water was a bit cold, but it was far inferior to the winter sea water in Jiangcheng.

Chen Zhong only felt pain in his abdomen, and the water flow was too fast to control his body, but the rest was fine.

Like a fish, with legs swaying up and down, arms wide open paddling the water, it quickly swam towards the direction where the man was being washed away!

The man who fell into the water could swim, but he couldn't save himself in this situation. He choked on a few mouthfuls of water, and his desire to survive made him surface again from time to time.

But to no avail, consciousness gradually fainted, thinking about the appearance of a fairy lady...

Suddenly his arm was grabbed by a strong hand, and it was unimaginable that he was the object of his ridicule.

What kind of courage and strength does it take to jump down to save him?
Chen Zhong was worried that he would grab him desperately when he saw that he was alive, so he put one hand through his arms and went upstream with all his strength.

The people on the boat were trying to control the boat from overturning at this time. For the two people who fell into the water, they had already been sentenced to death, and they also panicked that they were about to step into the footsteps.

The boy suddenly saw a head emerging from the water, it was his boss, swimming towards him.

"Look, they're not dead yet!"

This scene made them feel extremely shocked. This city man actually jumped down to save their people regardless of life or death!
"Pull him up quickly!" Chen Zhong got to the side of the boat and dragged him vigorously in the water. If he went up first and then pulled him up, the boat might capsize.

The two women and the young man exerted their strength on it, and they pulled it up. The man spat a few mouthfuls of water, regained some strength, and was about to rush to rescue his benefactor.

But Chen Zhong suddenly felt severe pain, and a piece of wood in the river hit his abdomen, which immediately made him lose all his strength, and he went down the river again at extreme speed!

"benefactor!"

"boss!"

The people on the boat saw some bloody flowers floating out of the water, and knew that they had been hit by something, but none of them had the ability to go into the water.

After the two men took the helm again, they had already crossed the rapids and quickly rowed to the opposite bank.

Immediately disembarked from the boat and ran down the road, hoping he might be washed ashore.

It's a pity that there is only rolling water, and there are no figures.

Several people felt very uncomfortable. This man was not very talkative, but he possessed a great charm, which convinced them all at once.

Suddenly, I saw a woman standing by the river, her beautiful face seemed to be integrated with the nature.

They immediately knelt down and said: "My Lady Immortal, someone fell into the water because of saving our companion, please save him quickly."
