Chapter 38 Snake Soup

Lin Zhiyi quickly and accurately grasped the back of the snake's head, and used his thumb and index finger to hold both sides of the head to prevent it from turning its head and biting people.

The snake's tail swayed back and forth.

Lin Zhiyi flicked the snake's tail, scaring Mu Yunzhao so much that he screamed "Ah~" and quickly hid backwards.

Mrs. Song was also frightened and hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Zhizhi, throw the snake away quickly. It's poisonous."

"Don't worry, mother. This snake is not poisonous."

Mrs. Song just took a look and was frightened by the snake's fangs and claws.

The two brothers also advised Lin Zhiyi to throw the snake away quickly, as it would be disastrous if it bit someone.

The ladies and girls around were also very frightened.

Only Li Wenjing and several Jinwu Guards looked at Lin Zhiyi with interest, secretly praising in their hearts: This girl is so brave!

Lin Zhiyi looked at Zhao Zhan and said, "Brother Zhao, please help me peel the snake and make snake soup for me later."

When Zhao Zhan heard that Miss Lin was going to make delicious food again and had not forgotten to call him, he was delighted in his heart, but no expression appeared on his face.

"Okay, leave it to me."

Li Wenjing on the cart saw that the two were talking very familiarly and couldn't help but squint at Zhao Zhan.

There was a well outside the dilapidated temple, and Lin Xiuran and Lin Xiuyan went to fetch water.

Lin Zhiyi ran over to borrow pots and bowls from Zhusheng.

Zhu Sheng thought of his master's instructions and gave it to her without saying a word.

I thought to myself, if Miss Lin is thoughtful, she can cook the meal and send a bowl to the master.

After fetching water, Lin Zhiyi instructed everyone to work together to soak the picked elm seeds, wash them, and drain them.

I saw her put the washed elm seeds into a basin, added some salt and mixed them well, then took out a bag of flour from her bag, and gently mixed it with her hands while adding the flour until the surface of the elm seeds was evenly coated with a layer of flour, and the grains were clearly visible and not sticking together.

After Lin Zhiyi steamed the elm seed rice, Zhao Zhan had already skinned the snake and brought it over.

"Thank you, Brother Zhao."

Zhao Zhan smiled at Lin Zhiyi, "Miss Lin, you're welcome."

He had also heard about Lin Zhiyi's story these two days.

He couldn't understand why Miss Lin, such a good girl, who was brought up in a wealthy family, didn't show any arrogance at all.

She has a good temper, is pretty, and even cooks delicious meals. If he had a wife like this, how could he bear to divorce her?

That family must be so ruthless that they cheated Miss Lin out of her money.

I couldn't help but feel sympathy for Lin Zhiyi.

At this time, the Jinwu Guards who had gone out to look for game returned one after another, and they actually caught a pheasant.

Not one, but four.

"Miss Lin, can you help us stew this pheasant? But don't worry, we won't let you help us in vain. We only want two, and the remaining two will belong to Miss Lin.

But you have to let us taste the snake meat."

Lin Zhiyi was instantly tempted. This was a good deal.

She glanced at the Jinwu Guards and thought it would be best if she could establish good relationships with them.

If you encounter danger on the road, you can get their protection.

Seeing that Lin Zhiyi remained silent, the Jinwu Guards thought she didn't want to agree.

It was indeed a bit too much to ask. Miss Lin was originally a rich girl in the backyard. If she was asked to cook for so many people, she would be so tired that she couldn't even stand up.

"Actually, if you cook it, you can give us a few pieces of meat so we can have a taste."

Lin Zhiyi smiled at them and said, "What are you talking about, brothers? You were the ones who caught the pheasant, so it's not too much for you to share two."

Several Jinwu Guards were stunned.

Miss Lin looks so beautiful when she smiles.

"Miss Lin, we will take care of the rough work like plucking the chicken, chopping the meat, fetching water, and collecting firewood. You just focus on cooking."

Lin Zhiyi was not polite either, "Okay, then I'll trouble you brothers."

Thinking of the two pots on Li Wenjing's cart, Lin Zhiyi went to borrow another pot.

Use two pots to stew chicken, just enough for two.

The elm seed rice was also steamed. Lin Zhiyi put the elm seed rice into a bowl, shook it with chopsticks, and began to prepare the dipping sauce.

When others saw Lin Zhiyi taking things out of her bag again and again, they were curious about how many good things were in her bag.

Tonight's meal is another sumptuous one.

The Lin family was too timid to eat snake meat, so Lin Zhiyi had no choice but to stew the whole snake in the pot of the Jinwu Guard.

After the meal was cooked, Lin Zhiyi first gave it to Li Wenjing and Zhu Sheng.

Who made her need Li Wenjing's help in the future?

When Lin Zhiyi first brought the chicken yesterday, Zhu Sheng was disdainful at first, but after tasting it, he found it was indeed delicious. Only then did he understand why his master agreed to exchange it for steamed buns with Miss Lin.

He was still the same, obsessed with the dishes cooked by Miss Lin.

I couldn't help but praise her: "Miss Lin is beautiful, has a good temper, and even the food she cooks is so delicious. The Qin family is really inhumane. How could they bear to hurt Miss Lin like this."

Li Wenjing's eyes flickered slightly, but he said nothing.

Mu Yunzhao had just recovered.

The snake swung onto her and she was so scared that she almost lost her soul.

When he woke up, he saw that Lin Zhiyi had already stewed the snake and gave it to Li Wenjing to eat.

She was angry.

Lin Zhiyi came to destroy her again.

But it doesn't matter, she still has time. During this month on the road, she will definitely win the favor of the deposed prince.

"Miss Lin, can we try the elm seed rice?"

"Sure, but there isn't much elm seed rice. If you like it, I can make more tomorrow morning."

Several big brothers of the Jinwu Guard should be.

Each of them picked up a chopstick and tasted it, but didn't want to stop.

But I was too embarrassed to do it a second time.

“It’s delicious.”

They had eaten elm seed rice in previous years, but it was far inferior to what Miss Lin made.

I couldn't help but think in my heart, Miss Lin is indeed the best. Ordinary ingredients can make such delicious food in her hands.

"Then tomorrow morning, I'll make some extra so you guys can have a treat."

In the fourth room, Mrs. Cheng looked at the food in the bowl and felt touched.

The eldest wife had meat to eat today, so the fourth wife was embarrassed to ask for more.

The second and third wives had food to eat, so they didn't care about their lives.

But unexpectedly, the eldest wife prepared the meal and brought a bowl of meat directly.

"Xue'er, Huai'er, you must remember the kindness of the eldest wife in the future."

Lin Xue and Lin Xiuhuai should be.

Lin Xue raised her eyes and glanced at Lin Zhiyi.

In the past, she, the cousin, had always disliked the fourth branch of the family. She never expected that she would miss the fourth branch of the family while on the road to exile.

Why did she feel that her cousin had changed?

"Eat quickly."

"Mom is not feeling well, so she should eat first."

Even though they were drooling with greed, the two still let Mrs. Cheng eat first.

Mrs. Cheng smiled at the two children and said, "Okay."

She picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up some meat, but was knocked down by the aggressive Madam Wang.

Behind Old Lady Wang came a group of people from the second and third rooms, who were about to snatch the food from Cheng and her mother and son.

"Zer, take it away."

Lin Xue rushed over to grab the bowl, "This is what my cousin gave to our fourth room. Why did you take it away?"

Madam Wang slapped Lin Xue in the face. "Little bitch, I'm your grandmother. You have meat but you don't use it to honor me, your grandmother, and you dare to eat it all by yourself? I'll beat you to death."

As Mrs. Wang spoke, she raised her cane and threw it towards Lin Xue.
