I don't know how long it took, but Lin Xiao woke up from her sleep to Li Yuyan's soft call.
"The meal is ready."
"Well, let's have dinner!"
Fragrant fish soup, green and delicious wild vegetables, fragrant and glutinous white rice.
Even when Li Yuyan's "mother's family" was well off, she never enjoyed such meals.
He knew that Lin Xiao brought him all this.
He felt more and more that Lin Xiao was really a rare talent!
The thought of taking Lin Xiao into his own hands once again came up.
"Here, drink more fish soup and take some calcium."
Lin Xiao scooped a bowl of fish soup for Li Yuyan. Li Yuyan immediately reached out to take it and joked:
"You should also drink more fish soup to replenish your body. I see you are as skinny as a little chicken."
As he said that, Li Yuyan scooped a bowl for Lin Xiao, and put two pieces of boneless meat from the fish belly in it.
"Okay, let's eat together. When we're full, you can help me chop some more bamboo!"
Lin Xiao took a sip of the delicious fish soup and then said.
"What do you need bamboo for? Do you need to make salt again?"
"I want to make some bamboo salt toothpaste to brush my teeth."
Although he didn't understand what Lin Xiao meant by "brushing teeth", he still nodded in agreement.
Who asked him to play the role of someone else's wife now, respecting her husband!
"I just went back up the mountain from a small road. I didn't find the bamboo, but I almost encountered a giant python."
"Anaconda?"
Lin Xiao told Li Yuyan her speculation.
Li Yuyan suddenly felt that something was not good, and said to Lin Xiao: "Don't go to the back mountain in the future, if you really encounter a giant python, it will be bad."
He finally found a talent like Lin Xiao, but he didn't want any accidents to happen.
"Well, I won't go there again, but when I came back, I reminded the village women who went up to the mountains to dig wild vegetables. They didn't seem to care at all and thought I was trying to frame them."
Thinking of the strange and angry faces of the village women just now, Lin Xiao felt very uncomfortable.
"What if they really encounter the giant python you talk about?"
Lin Xiao was stunned.
These village women are all sharp-tongued and mean-mouthed, but their minds are not bad.
Moreover, in the memory of the original owner, whenever the village women dug some wild vegetables, they would give some to Lin's mother. With their help, Lin Xiao's family's life would not be difficult.
These are all favors and must be repaid!
"Let's eat quickly. After we finish eating, we can remind them!"
After lunch, the two of them were about to set off with their machetes when Lin Xiao caught a glimpse of a dusty crossbow in the corner of the yard.
It belonged to the original owner's father.
The original owner's father was an Orion, and he lived a prosperous life with this crossbow.
But later, an accident occurred during a hunting trip, and Lin Xiao's family fell into decline.
Lin Xiao picked up the crossbow, wiped off the dust on it, and tried it. She was really surprised that the strings on the crossbow could still be used normally.
It seems that the material used for this string is extraordinary, and even modern crossbow strings cannot compare with it.
"Can you use this crossbow?"
Lin Xiao fiddled with it for a while and found that he couldn't draw the bow string with his own strength, let alone raise the arrow.
"Let me try."
When Li Yuyan was still the Ninth Prince, he was a master of crossbows.
I saw him pulling out the bow string, sticking the arrow on it, pulling the trigger, and with a whoosh, the rusty arrow hit the pillar of the house without missing a beat.
Lin Xiao was quite surprised that the mountain village woman could use a crossbow so skillfully.
She did not doubt this, but unilaterally felt that her big "daughter-in-law" was very smart!
"That's great! You hold the crossbow close to you, and I'll use the machete. It's easy for me."
Just like that, the two of them took the tools and headed back up the mountain together.
Some village women who had turned back after listening to Lin Xiao's warning were furious when they saw Lin Xiao and Li Yuyan, who were fully armed.
"Look, I said that Xiao Linzi is a very clever person. He tricked us all into going down the mountain, and then secretly went up the mountain himself. I think the secret to his fortune must be hidden in the mountain!"
"No, didn't you hear that just now? His family has meat dishes again today, and they still eat snow-white rice!"
"Isn't rice something only the county magistrate can eat? His kid actually ate rice? It's incredible, I have to go with him to see!"
"I am coming too!"
"Yes, let's go together. If we want to make a fortune together, why should he eat big fish, meat and white rice while we have to eat bran-thick vegetables?"
"Yes! We have to ask him why he wanted to deceive us!"
…
The more the village women thought about it, the angrier they became. Filled with indignation, they picked up their things and ran towards the back hill.
It is the turn of spring and summer, which is a good time to eat purslane.
By the time Lin Xiao and Li Yuyan arrived at the back mountain, it was already noon, the dazzling sun was hanging high in the sky, and several village women were squatting on the mountain col, digging hard.
Lin Xiao cleared her throat, and just as she was about to speak, she was surrounded by village women who came from behind.
"Okay, you little Linzi, why do you want to deceive the aunts?"
"Tell me, what are you two doing here with your business?"
"Does the mountain hide the secret to your fortune?"
Several village women digging wild vegetables also stopped what they were doing and looked at Lin Xiao and Li Yuyan with interest.
"Why did I lie to you?"
Facing the aggressive village women, Lin Xiao was confused.
"You said there was danger in the back mountain and told us not to go. We listened to you and went home. It would be better for you to sneak over here with your little wife. Isn't this a lie?"
Aunt Wu put her hands on her hips and asked angrily.
She is the wife of Lin Wu, the blacksmith shop in the village. She is known as Aunt Wu. She is fierce and fierce. When the village chief's wife Ma Guihua is not around, the village women all look up to her.
"My head is afraid that the aunts who come here to dig wild vegetables will encounter a giant python, so I came here specially to remind you. I am not deceiving you!"
Seeing Lin Xiao, who looked aggrieved because he had been wrongly accused, Li Yuyan became angry.
Aunt Wu snorted coldly, with a contemptuous smile on her face: "Giant python? Haha, how can we have a giant python here?"
"That is to say, let alone snakes here, even earth dragons are rare to see. Are you still saying that you are not deceiving us?"
Tulong refers to the eel we often eat.
"Then again, you said there was a giant python on the mountain, did you see it?"
Seeing that Lin Xiao didn't speak, Aunt Wu continued to question.
"I didn't see it, I just guessed..."
Before Lin Xiao finished speaking, a village woman quit her job and immediately screamed at Lin Xiao:
"Xiao Linzi, Xiao Linzi, you are really a black-hearted person! Let's go up to the mountain and dig some wild vegetables for the old man. The children can improve their lives without hindering your fortune. Why are you making up such nonsense?!"
"That is to say, your family enjoys spicy food and a big meal of fish and meat, but you don't want us to eat wild vegetables to satisfy our hunger?"
"The mind of a scholar is rotten!"
…
Pick up last time.
Three years after her boyfriend died, my girlfriend finally saw her boyfriend in her dream.
The girlfriend was overjoyed and hurriedly hugged her boyfriend.
But her boyfriend pushed her away coldly and asked her with a complaining look on her face, "Why hasn't she gotten married after three years?"
The girlfriend said aggrievedly that she could never forget her boyfriend and even thought of committing suicide for her love.
The boyfriend angrily said that if his girlfriend doesn’t get married, he won’t be able to reincarnate!
