Chapter 340: Eating in the Cafeteria
When Ye Xiaomei ran away, Feng Jin was stunned.
She was pretending, right? It was obvious that she brought the snake herself. But seeing her back as she rushed out of the cafeteria, Feng Jin wondered if this girl had a brain problem. No matter how fast she ran, wouldn't the cloth bag still be on her back?
Thinking of this, Feng Zhen's expression was uglier than that of someone who had eaten a fly. Was she pretending or was she really stupid?
Ye Xiaomei ran away for an unknown distance when she saw a large group of people walking towards the cafeteria. They were fighting and making a lot of noise. The leader, Heizi, was recognized at a glance. Wasn't the little follower beside him Zhang Erquan?
"Heizi..." Ye Xiaomei seemed to have found a life-saving straw, and she ran while shouting:
"Catch the snake quickly, Zhang Erquan, catch the snake."
The leading black man's pupils shrank. Isn't that my sister-in-law? He immediately stopped making a fuss and trotted over to greet her:
"Sister-in-law, what did you just say? Snake?"
Zhang Erquan looked his sister-in-law up and down, and seeing that her face had turned pale with fear, he couldn't help but ask with concern:
"Sister-in-law, you must have been frightened by what happened this afternoon."
Ye Xiaomei waved her hands repeatedly and was about to say that it was not an illusion and there was really a snake, then she came to her senses and slowly looked down. The cloth bag on her waist was still hanging on her body.
When Ye Xiaomei thought of the little snake in her cloth bag, her upper and lower teeth started to snap.
It was true that she was born in the countryside and had indeed seen snakes before, but the most common snakes in Meihua Village were spotted snakes, ground snakes, and yellow water snakes. Those snakes were not poisonous. It was the first time Ye Xiaomei saw a white snake.
The visual impact was in stark contrast to her subconscious impression of snakes. She had imagined what a white snake looked like countless times, but when she saw it this time, Ye Xiaomei's first reaction was that if it was too white, it would appear silver with a hint of blue, which was too unbelievable.
"Sister-in-law?" Heizi saw that his sister-in-law didn't say anything and stood there like a wooden chicken, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Sister-in-law." The brothers from the Wild Wolf Group behind her all called her.
Ye Xiaomei came back to her senses with goosebumps all over her body. Well, since she didn't know whether the little white snake had sneaked in while she was sitting on the mountain to rest, she would bring it back for Tang Buci to study.
Ye Xiaomei said awkwardly: "Maybe you were really frightened by what happened this afternoon. You guys...you guys should go to the cafeteria to eat, I won't keep you any longer."
Ye Xiaomei hurriedly walked through the crowd. Everyone automatically made way for her. Ye Xiaomei stopped abruptly:
"By the way, Heizi, there are two lunch boxes on the seat where your leader is sitting. Please help me deliver them to the family building later." Ye Xiaomei hasn't eaten enough yet.
Ye Xiaomei hurried back to the house, becoming even more frightened. She quickly opened the curtains and turned on the light.
He took off the cloth bag hanging from his shoulder and threw it on the ground, then walked away with a fierce look in his eyes:
"Come out..." Ye Xiaomei's voice trembled with fear. She found that she had nothing to defend herself with. The only silver needle she often used was also in her bag. She looked around, picked up Ma Qijun's folder on the table and patted the corner of the table:
"Come out now, or I'll beat you both to a pulp."
Ye Xiaomei stared at the cloth bag on the ground with a fierce look in her eyes. It was obvious that there was no movement at all. She suddenly wondered if she was stupid for trying to talk to a snake.
So he moved away, stretched out his arm, and carefully poked it with the folder.
At this moment, the cloth bag moved suddenly, and Ye Xiaomei quickly retreated to a safe distance.
Seeing the cloth bag begin to move slightly, just when the little head appeared from the opening of the cloth bag, Ye Xiaomei clenched the folder in her hand, preparing for the angle from which she could kill them in one blow if she was attacked.
What Ye Xiaomei didn't expect was that one head, two heads, were all exposed, and they slowly turned out and climbed onto the cloth bag. Then they curled up into an egg-sized shit cake shape, raised their heads and spit a few times.
It was only then that Ye Xiaomei realized that this snake looked very strange. Its snow-white scales were extremely white, and its tongue was even black.
The small eyes, which were as big as half a green bean, were filled with a deep black color that was bottomless and could not reflect any light.
Ye Xiaomei swallowed her saliva, moved closer cautiously, poked the snake's body with the folder from a distance, and quickly jumped three meters away the next second.
Looking more closely, I saw that these two were so well behaved that they didn't move at all.
Ye Xiaomei relaxed her guard. Could it be that it was just born and hadn't grown teeth yet? If that was the case, it shouldn't bite people.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaomei's previous fear dissipated for the most part. Now the most urgent thing was to find a way to hide the snake.
At this moment, there was a loud sound of firecrackers outside, and the national anthem was played from loudspeakers throughout the military district, instantly filling the air with the atmosphere of National Day.
It looked like the show was about to begin. Ye Xiaomei retracted her gaze and took a closer look. The two snakes seemed to be frightened by the sound of firecrackers and slipped into the cloth bag.
Ye Xiaomei was dumbfounded. What would she do if she got in? Her needle bag was also inside, along with melon seeds and candies.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaomei's scalp tingled. Taking a step back, it would be okay not to carry this backpack, but it would also be okay if she didn't come out after going in.
Just then, there was a knock on the door: "Sister-in-law, it's me, Heizi."
Ye Xiaomei stepped forward timidly and kicked the cloth bag under the bed: "Here it comes."
After opening the door, Heizi came in with three lunch boxes and placed them on the desk without saying a word:
"Sister-in-law, it's going to start in 20 minutes. The boss is out for a while and I don't know when he will be back. I'll take you there after we finish eating."
Ye Xiaomei looked under the bed warily, fearing that the two snakes would come out, and said with a wry smile:
"Okay." He sat down and ate a few mouthfuls of food without tasting the food, his eyes occasionally looking towards the bed.
Heizi didn't pay attention to this detail. He just wolfed down the food like a hamster, stuffing his mouth like a big hamster, and said incoherently:
"You will be in the first row, which is our leader's seat. The people in the middle are all of higher military rank. If you don't know them, you don't have to say hello. After all, you are our leader's family member."
Ye Xiaomei nodded absentmindedly, her eyes seemed to be glued together and she kept wanting to look under the bed.
But after checking several times, the little white snake really didn't crawl out, so she gradually felt relieved:
"Heizi, when will your boss be back?"
"I don't know." Heizi said bluntly.
Ye Xiaomei then turned her attention to this topic. She had no time to think about it when Feng Jin said this:
"Heizi, your boss is at least a group leader, why does he have to personally lead people to participate in such a trivial matter?"
Ye Xiaomei felt that this was not in accordance with the rules, unless it was a major military matter that required a group to go out, the group leader would personally go out when it was absolutely necessary.
Heizi could hear the sound of scraping the bottom of his lunch box with his chopsticks. After he finally stuffed the last mouthful of rice into his mouth, he said:
"The division commander appointed him to go. Originally, the commander didn't have to go in person. He could have sent me. At most, I would have taken two scouts and a few brothers from the field platoon."
Ye Xiaomei was slightly startled: "Such a small matter has attracted the attention of the teacher?"
She had a bad feeling. Could it be that Feng Jin was playing some tricks on her? Otherwise, why was she so confident when she said that in the cafeteria today?
