Chapter 70 Listen to me, or I’ll get beaten again
Author: Mu Yan Hua Lou
Zhang Xiaoying: "..."
Is she the kind of person who is always ready to fight and kill?
"Let's go. If I want to kill you, I don't need to bring you up the mountain. I will strangle you to death with just one hand." Zhang Xiaoying said angrily.
The two of them were even more panicked. Why did I even know what they were thinking?
"If you don't leave yet, am I going to carry you on my back?" Zhang Xiaoying walked a few steps and found that they were not following her, so she turned back and glared at them.
The couple quickly chased after him.
When they arrived outside the bamboo forest, Zhang Xiaoying took out the dry food from her basket and handed it to Xu Changsheng and the others.
That was a pastry given to her by Mrs. Zhou, and it was good to satisfy her hunger.
Mrs. Lin smelled the aroma of the cakes and subconsciously said: "I'll save it for Wen Cong..."
Before she finished speaking, she received a death stare from Zhang Xiaoying.
A chill ran down Lin's spine, and she lowered her head and quickly stuffed the cake into her mouth.
"Don't let me hear who I will leave the things I give you in the future, otherwise don't expect me to return them to him in the future!" Zhang Xiaoying warned coolly, "Wen Cong's temper today is what you two are used to.
So selfish."
Neither of them dared to say a word.
"Don't tell me that your child is still young and ignorant. He will be 80 when he is three years old. If you don't help him change now, you won't be able to live a good life when you are old."
"Mom taught me a lesson." Xu Changsheng nodded, with a look of agreement, "Wen Cong's temper really needs to be straightened out, he is a bit shameful now."
Zhang Xiaoying sneered.
Xu Changsheng's scalp went numb, "Mom, from now on you will be in charge of Wen Cong, and I will never say anything to my wife."
"It's best like this." Zhang Xiaoying glanced at the two of them, "Work when you're full. The bamboo shoots are just emerging from the ground. You have to dig through the branches and leaves on the ground to look for them. Be careful, the bamboo shoots can still be sold at an affordable price.
.”
"knew."
"Remember, follow me closely and don't wander around."
"OK."
After they finished eating, Zhang Xiaoying took them into the bamboo forest.
After a day passed, the bamboo shoots sprouted again.
Zhang Xiaoying's speed in finding and digging bamboo shoots was so fast that Xu Changsheng and Lin were amazed.
However, when it was their turn, the bamboo shoots seemed to be playing hide and seek with them. If they hadn't stepped on them, they wouldn't have seen one for a long time.
Moreover, the bamboo shoots that were finally found were dug up and damaged.
Xu Changsheng looked at the bamboo shoots as big as two fingers and was speechless for a long time.
Zhang Xiaoying took into account the convenience of her son and daughter-in-law's inexperience, so she didn't go too far.
There was no mountain breeze nearby, so Zhang Xiaoying felt relieved and prepared to go to the place where mushrooms grow and pick some mushrooms.
"Just search around this circle. If you find anything, call me loudly. I'll go to the front and take a look first." Zhang Xiaoying said to Xu Changsheng, "Don't go too far."
"Mom, let's go with you." The bamboo forest was very dark without the sun, and Zhang Xiaoying told them that snakes roamed here, so Xu Changsheng really didn't dare to stay.
"No, you are too slow and are taking up my time. I will be back soon. I can hear you calling me." Zhang Xiaoying refused and disappeared from their sight after a while.
"Mom, you're not really going to leave us to feed the big snake, are you?" Mrs. Lin approached Xu Changsheng fearfully.
Xu Changsheng patted her and said, "No, didn't she just say that? She only needs one hand to strangle us without taking us up the mountain. Let's just listen to her."
"But I don't feel at ease."
"Why don't we just listen to my mother? Otherwise I will be beaten again when I go back."
Lin: "..."
She glared at Xu Changsheng with hatred.
Xu Changsheng felt guilty.
"Although my mother beat me, she protected us in school yesterday. Wife, no matter what, I am still my mother's son, and she will not really harm me."
"Forget it, I will have you with me if I die anyway."
Mrs. Lin was not angry.
Having said that, Ms. Lin didn't know why, but she did feel that her mother-in-law seemed more reassuring than before.
Zhang Xiaoying found the mushroom and found that Guoshanfeng was there too.
It was a big log that couldn't be hugged by an adult. It was covered with mushrooms, and the wind from the mountain blew around it, as if it was guarding the log.
Zhang Xiaoying: "..."
When she was considering whether to make snake soup, the mountain wind slowly swam not far from the wood, as if giving it to Zhang Xiaoying.
Zhang Xiaoying thought for a while and looked at Guo Shanfeng.
"I'm here to dig bamboo shoots. More people may come here in the future. You'd better go farther away to avoid encountering people and being attacked. Although you are very powerful, you can't stand up to those powerful snake catchers."
"In the eyes of snake catchers, your whole body is a treasure and can be sold at a high price. So, you'd better find another place to settle down."
I don’t know if Guo Shanfeng understood it, but Zhang Xiaoying stepped forward to pick mushrooms.
Guoshanfeng stayed for a while and then left.
By the time Zhang Xiaoying finished picking the mushrooms on the wood, she already had a small basket on her back.
She went elsewhere, filled her basket, and then returned to Xu Changsheng and the others.
Halfway through the journey, Zhang Xiaoying encountered mountain wind again.
Guoshanfeng seemed to be waiting for her there specifically, with five fat hares beside her.
Seeing Zhang Xiaoying, it stepped aside again, seemingly signaling Zhang Xiaoying to take away the hares.
"For me?" Zhang Xiaoying was surprised.
There was no response from Guoshanfeng, so he just waited there quietly.
Zhang Xiaoying was a little surprised. She stepped forward to get the hare, but Guo Shanfeng left again.
Zhang Xiaoying is convinced that this mountain breeze is spiritual.
"Remember to go as far away as possible to settle down so you don't run into other people."
The mountain breeze stopped, raised its head, as if to say it understood, and then disappeared into the woods.
This unexpected joy made Zhang Xiaoying feel better.
But this good mood lasted until she saw the bamboo shoots dug by Xu Changsheng.
The good bamboo shoots were dug up by Xu Changsheng!
Xu Changsheng also cleverly dug up the entire area around the bamboo.
He proudly said to Zhang Xiaoying: "Mom, if you dig like this, you can still find the bamboo shoots even if they don't grow out. You don't have to waste your time picking them out."
Zhang Xiaoying's forehead jumped.
She couldn't help but want to beat her son again!
What is the difference between this and killing the chicken to retrieve the eggs?
The bamboos have been dug up. Will they be able to grow again next year?
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Xu Changsheng caught a glimpse of something wrong with my mother's expression, and immediately panicked, "Did I do something wrong?"
Zhang Xiaoying took a deep breath and pointed at the bamboos he dug out, "Plant them all for me!"
"Ah? Why?" Xu Changsheng was puzzled.
Zhang Xiaoying picked up the clod of soil and smashed it over, "You are the only one smart enough to know how to dig like this. If everyone were like you, you would be able to wipe out any trace of the bamboo forest no matter how big it is!"
Xu Changsheng dropped the hoe and held his head with both hands, "Mom, don't hit me. I don't know if you don't tell me. I've never dug bamboo shoots before. I, I'll plant them right away."
"Bitch, who told you to be so smart?" Zhang Xiaoying's fist hardened when she saw the hollowed-out land. "I asked you to dig bamboo shoots, but I didn't ask you to dig up the bamboo roots."
