Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 253 Preparing to Go Down the Mountain
Tao Qiuyi had long guessed that the two were Wei Jingyuan's comrades in the army. She naturally couldn't take their careful self-introduction lightly.

"Hello, I'm Tao Qiuyi, Wei Jingyuan's..." With a generous smile, Tao Qiuyi reached out and hugged Wei Jingyuan's arm. "Wife."

Hearing her say that she was his wife, Wei Jingyuan felt a warm current in his heart. He lowered his eyes to look at her delicate little face, which was indeed more beautiful than the lotus on the snowy mountain.

"Am I wrong?" Tao Qiuyi asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes." The gentle word "yes" made Wei Jingyuan's words sound particularly tender. "You are my wife, you are always right."

"I like what you said." Tao Qiuyi nodded in satisfaction, released Wei Jingyuan's arm and said, "Alright, you guys can talk by yourselves. I'm going to go find some herbs nearby."

Was this man, filled with affection, their wise and powerful Brother Wei? Xie Wen and Ishikawa, forced to eat a mouthful of dog food, looked at Wei Jingyuan with suspicion.

Wei Jingyuan turned around and called Tao Qiuyi, "Wait, that fish that slipped through the net..."

Although he didn't say it clearly, Tao Qiuyi already understood what he meant. Smiling, he said, "It's in the tree over there. I can lead you there now if you need me."

Wei Jingyuan nodded, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Qiuqiu."

"Let's go." Tao Qiuyi glanced at him and walked forward first.

If Wei Jingyuan hadn't reminded her, she would have forgotten about the masked man stuck in the tree branch. She quickly led them over and got the masked man down.

She gave Xie Wen and Ishikawa a look, and Wei Jingyuan followed her. After a few steps, Tao Qiu suddenly stopped and turned back, thinking of something.

"What's wrong?" Wei Jingyuan was right behind her, and she was facing him.

After staring at him for a few seconds, Tao Qiuyi said nothing. She simply reached out and grabbed his hand, then continued walking forward.

Wei Jingyuan felt a little embarrassed to be held hand by her in front of so many people, but he also understood what she meant: she wanted to walk side by side with him.

Xie Wen and three others followed Wei Jingyuan and Tao Qiuyi, and they soon arrived at the tree. They looked up at the masked man stuck in the tree branch, and the masked man looked back at them.

Everyone was speechless.

"How did he get on the tree branch?" Xie Wen asked curiously, touching his chin.

Tao Qiuyi replied: "I kicked him up there."

"You...kicked...kicked him up there?" Xie Wen swallowed and raised his foot, making a kicking motion. "Did you kick him up there like that?"

It wasn't that he looked down on people, but Brother Wei's wife looked quite young, with thin arms and legs, and he couldn't believe that she could kick someone up a tree.

Even with his own strength, he couldn't kick anyone up the tree.

Looking at Xie Wen speechlessly, Tao Qiuyi asked, "If not this way, how else can we kick?"

Tao Qiuyi saw that Xie Wen didn't believe her, so she didn't bother to explain. After all, she was telling the truth and had a clear conscience.

Wei Jingyuan patted Tao Qiuyi's shoulder gently and said softly, "Don't look for herbs anymore. The basket is almost full. Go to the cave and see if Qiusi has packed everything."

"We'll be down the mountain in ten minutes at most."

"Okay." Tao Qiuyi responded, nodded to Xie Wen and the others, then turned and left.

Only after watching her back disappear from his sight did Wei Jingyuan withdraw his gaze and look at the masked figure stuck on the tree branch. The tree was quite tall, so it would take some effort to get the masked figure down.

"Brother Wei, you've changed a lot." Xie Wen approached him, examining him with curiosity. "Is it because your leg injury has healed, or because of your sister-in-law?" He had seen Brother Wei walking with a cane, and back then, he looked nothing but lifeless. Now, even though Brother Wei was wearing ordinary clothes, his aura remained unchanged.

Compared to the past, Brother Wei is more mature and stable.

"Both." Wei Jingyuan tilted his head to look at Xie Wen and said calmly, "No one remains unchanged. I will change, you will change, and everyone will change."

"Yes, we all change, but our feelings and admiration for you, Brother Wei, will never change." Xie Wen said sincerely: "Brother Wei, your leg is healed, I am really happy for you."

"Thank you." Wei Jingyuan didn't want to say more.

Xie Wen noticed this, but didn't continue the conversation. He also noticed that Brother Wei's cotton coat and trousers were new, which was enough to show that Brother Wei was living a good life.

Mr. Jiang also said that Brother Wei's life has been getting better and better since he got married.

Glancing at the basket filled with weeds on Wei Jingyuan's back, Xie Wen praised him, "Brother Wei, you're truly amazing! You've only studied medicine with Master Jiang for half a year, and yet you dare to go into the mountains to look for herbs on your own?"

Wei Jingyuan didn't respond to Xie Wen's question and asked, "Have you figured out how to get him down?"

"No." Xie Wen shook his head honestly and said, "I just observed the position where the masked man is stuck. It's stuck very cleverly and firmly, and it's not easy to get it off."

"Brother Wei, do you really believe that it was my sister-in-law who kicked him into the tree and got him stuck?"

"If she says yes, then it's yes." Wei Jingyuan didn't want to say more about Tao Qiuyi.

Xie Wen was speechless. He didn't know how to respond.

In the cave on the other side, Tao Qiusi was relieved to see Tao Qiuyi return unharmed. Not seeing Wei Jingyuan, he asked Tao Qiuyi why Brother Wei didn't come in with him.

Tao Qiuyi told him that Wei Jingyuan had something to do, but he said he would go down the mountain in about ten minutes.

Hearing that they would be going down the mountain in about ten minutes, Tao Qiusi hurried to pack his things. He didn't have time to talk to Tao Qiuyi because he was too worried to pack anything.

Seeing that Tao Qiusi was busy, Tao Qiuyi didn't disturb him. He walked to the stone table and sat down, with most of his body lying on the stone table, closing his eyes and dozing off out of boredom.

Wei Jingyuan walked into the cave, and Tao Qiuyi opened her eyes immediately upon hearing the sound. Their eyes met in mid-air, but neither of them spoke.

"Is the matter done?" After a moment of silence, Tao Qiuyi asked first.

"It's done." Walking up to Tao Qiuyi, Wei Jingyuan knelt down on one knee to look her in the eye. Gazing into her star-like eyes, he asked gently, "Were you dozing off just now?"

"Yeah." Tao Qiuyi admitted generously, "It's a bit boring."

Wei Jingyuan chuckled, "I thought you would help Qiusi pack the things she wanted to take away."

"Of course he has to do his own things." Tao Qiuyi is very self-aware. She is not a diligent person.

"That makes sense." Holding her hand and standing up, Wei Jingyuan said, "We can go down the mountain now."

Tao Qiuyi nodded, then went to see how Tao Qiusi was packing. He saw the young man standing a few steps away, carrying a rolled-up quilt on his back and a sack in his hands.

Obviously he had been waiting for this for a long time.

Very good, there is nothing extra. Tao Qiuyi asked: "Qiusi, are you done packing?"

"Yeah." Tao Qiusi nodded heavily.
