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....
At noon, when they passed a stream, Ma Hehua rolled up her pants and went straight into the water. She was upstream, while Deputy Officer Chen and the others were downstream.
The soldiers couldn't catch any fish, but to their surprise, the fish in the river suddenly flipped up straight, which was like waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump!
Without saying a word, he grabbed the pockets and started stuffing the clothes in one by one.
The clear stream carried the ice river. Ma Hehua carefully washed her feet, then took out socks from the bag, put on her liberation shoes, and watched her mother and daughter catching fish upstream.
"Lieutenant Chen, quick! We've caught a lot of fish. We can have an extra meal tonight."
"Yes, I've been eating dry bread lately, and my mouth is all blistered. This fish is a perfect snack."
Everyone chattered amongst themselves, their faces beaming with barely suppressed smiles, and they even swallowed hard as they looked at the fish.
Lieutenant Chen looked pleased. "Alright! Since you caught so many fish, let's divide the work and make a grilled fish feast."
Ma Lihua and Ma Linghua stole a glance at their fish, and after thinking for a moment, Ma Lihua asked.
"Grandma, are they alright after eating it?" Those were fish that her mother poisoned!
"Hey! It's alright. These are all people with strong yang energy. Besides, your mother's yin energy is decreasing, so the smell on her feet isn't too strong. At most, they'll just have diarrhea and feel dizzy. It's not a big problem," Ma Linghua said nonchalantly.
Upon hearing this, Ma Hehua was incredibly excited. "Mother, you don't dislike me anymore? Waaah~ Mother, you're so kind. Can I soak my feet with you and Lihua from now on?" she asked expectantly.
Ma Lihua: "……………………"
Ma Linghua: "……………………"
