Black Wind Village is a backward and impoverished place. The Ma family is spoken of by everyone in the village. After having five sons, the 40-year-old woman of the Ma family became pregnant again....
In the morning, Yunzhi glanced at the spirit snake egg, wondering if it could survive. Without the nourishment of its mother, would it just die like this?
After thinking about it, she decided to ask Pear Blossom, who seemed to know something about this.
She glanced at the old clock; it was past eight o'clock. She quickly went to cook.
Little Bean also wobbled out of bed, touched his head, wondering if he had forgotten something.
When he watched Yunzhi cook, he suddenly remembered that Qiangzi's matter hadn't been resolved yet! But Aunt Ma and the others hadn't gotten up yet, so he wasn't going to go in and get upset.
The meal was just cooked, and the three members of the Ma family woke up naturally from the smell.
Little Bean; "……………………"
How afraid of going hungry is he? He eats every single meal without missing a single one; I have to admit he's amazing.
He only spoke after seeing that the others had eaten and drunk their fill.
"Grandma, something happened last night. Someone in our village has been poisoned by a snake. Could you go and take a look?" Little Bean asked cautiously.
She initially wanted to refuse, but then she remembered that Xiaodouzi had invited them to visit a scenic area, so she agreed.
"Alright! Take us there!" As for whether she could cure it, she didn't know. She was good at seeing ghosts, but as for poisons? She didn't know much about them.
Little Bean; "………………"
I don't understand why you agreed so readily?
The group arrived at the village chief's house and saw his wife feeding him. She was worried he would get cold, so she lit a charcoal fire next to him and took very good care of him.
"Tsk! What a spineless coward. What kind of man can't even withstand a little cold?" Ma Hehua couldn't stand seeing women serving him like slaves.
"Hey! Lotus, it's their choice, we can't interfere. After we check the situation, let's go to the scenic area, relax for a day, and set off tomorrow." Ma Linghua was arranging the itinerary, always thinking about going home.
"Uncle Bean".
The woman greeted Xiaodouzi. She was rather thin, with chilblains all over her hands, dry hair, and sunken eyes. She looked like she was suffering from sleep deprivation, malnutrition, and overwork.
"Qiangzi's wife, you've worked hard. Go and rest for a bit! I'll go see Qiangzi and then I'll leave," Xiaodouzi said calmly.
"Uncle, just call me if you need anything. I'm going to boil some water."
"Tsk tsk tsk! That's too weak. Judging from her appearance, she probably has endless work to do all day long!" Ma Hehua started gossiping again.
Little Bean; "……………………"
Can't you just not say it in front of others? It makes them feel even more embarrassed.
“Yes, Mother, I can’t marry a man like that in the future, he’s too useless.” Ma Lihua wholeheartedly agreed with her mother.
"Of course! A man who doesn't earn money, cook, do laundry, or feed chickens, ducks, or pigs is useless. Your little darling is lucky; good men will come knocking on her door. As for useless men, just kick them out."
The woman who was boiling water paused, biting her lip. "What kind of man is this? Must I be dreaming!"
Looking at Wu Qiang, who was drooling, Ma Linghua said to her daughter, "Hehua, give him one of the meatballs I made."
"Mom, he hasn't paid us yet! Aren't we losing out?" Ma Hehua was a little worried; she had never even tried these meatballs before!
Ma Linghua; "……………………"
This was made with your foot bath water, so there's practically no cost involved. Even if we lose money, we won't lose much! But she couldn't say that, since this could be a lucrative business in the future!
"Stop talking nonsense, just give it to me when I tell you to. What are you dawdling about?"
Seeing that her mother was unhappy, Ma Hehua quickly took out a bottle of meatballs from the bag. As soon as she took it out, Xiaodouzi almost vomited.
What is this? Why does it smell so bad? It looks grayish-brown; will it cause poisoning if I eat it?
Ma Hehua roughly pinched Wu Qiang's mouth and shoved the meatball into it. The meatball melted in his mouth, and a stench assaulted Wu Qiang's skull.
"Ugh~"
Seeing that he was about to vomit, Ma Hehua immediately lifted his neck up. Just kidding, this is a good thing made by her mother, how can it be wasted?
Want a second one? Dream on! "Don't you dare throw it up! This is worth over a thousand yuan."
Little Bean shuddered. What? Something worth over a thousand yuan? That's amazing! Should I shamelessly ask my aunt for one?
He found it incredibly smelly, but that didn't stop him from being a little envious of Qiangzi. He could eat that much stuff that cost a thousand yuan whenever he wanted!
Wu Qiang; "……………………"
This feels like being in a cesspool, half-dead, and stinking! If you're envious, I'd like to give you this opportunity.
"Alright, he'll be fine once he wakes up."
Looking at Wu Qiang, who had fainted from the stench, the three members of the Ma family were full of disdain. He was too weak. In their Ma family, a man like him would be directly trained, or he would be slapped.
Looking at the expressions on the three people's faces, Xiaodouzi felt that the man who could marry his great-aunt and Hehua was practically a god, and he couldn't help but want to worship him.
"Alright, let's head over to the scenic spots in Miaoling!" Since we had the time, we decided to go to the scenic spots along the way, since we were too lazy to go back to the house and had already eaten anyway.
"Alright! Then I'll take you all out for a stroll." Little Bean's expression immediately became sophisticated.
There weren't many people in the scenic area at the moment. Xiaodouzi led them to the Lishan Park, where there were many batik paintings and some old objects.
Then he led them into the Red Stone Forest, but as soon as they entered, Ma Hehua immediately became alert.
