Chapter 47: Crisis! Second Brother Shen Qingxuan was attacked by a poisonous snake



When Shen Qingli turned around and looked at Shen Qingxuan, she was almost scared to death.

I saw a half-meter-long snake raising its head and attacking Shen Qingxuan.

Although Shen Qingli didn't know the species of the snake.

But from its triangular head, you can tell that it is definitely a poisonous snake.

At the critical moment, Shen Qingli shouted: "Second brother, let go of the guide stick!"

Shen Qingxuan let go without any hesitation.

The moment the guide stick fell to the ground, Shen Qingli quickly grabbed it.

The venomous snake rushed towards Shen Qingxuan fiercely, but Shen Qingli immediately took a step forward and pulled Shen Qingxuan behind her.

She gripped her guide stick tightly, her body tense, ready to deal with the snake's attack.

The venomous snake aimed at Shen Qingxuan and bit him. However, at the moment when it was about to bite him, Shen Qingli quickly raised his guide stick and swung it hard.

The guide stick was like a flash of lightning, throwing the poisonous snake far away.

The poisonous snake was frightened and fled in panic.

But the direction of escape was towards Shen Qingxuan.

Seeing this, Shen Qingli pulled Shen Qingxuan aside regardless of everything and waved her guide cane again.

She has a sharp gaze and an upright posture!

Without hesitation, he raised his guide stick high and smashed it hard on the snake's head.

The guide stick was like a sharp sword, aiming at the snake's head and smashing it down.

If Shen Qingli had a spear in her hand, the snake's head would have been pierced through by now.

But even with the stick, the snake's head was smashed to pieces.

"Phew~that was close!" Shen Qingli poked the poisonous snake and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was really dead.

Shen Qingli's hands were still trembling slightly. The life-and-death moment just now made her feel tremendous pressure and fear.

"What's wrong, Xiaoli?" Although Shen Qingxuan subconsciously cooperated with Shen Qingli, he didn't know what was going on because he was blind.

"Just now a poisonous snake tried to attack you, but I killed it!" Shen Qingli used her guide stick to pick up the snake's body and threw it into the grass on the side of the road.

"That's normal!" Shen Qingxuan finally let go of the worry that had been weighing on his mind all day.

The accident that I had been waiting for for a day finally happened.

Suddenly Shen Qingxuan thought of something and hurriedly asked, "Where is the snake's body?"

"Uh... I just threw it away!" Shen Qingli wiped her cane with a handful of grass in disgust. "Second brother, what do you want the snake corpse for?"

"Snake meat actually tastes pretty good!" Shen Qingxuan chuckled.

"No, second brother, you have too strong a taste. You actually want to eat snake meat?" Shen Qingli looked at Shen Qingxuan in shock.

"When people are hungry, they will eat anything!"

Shen Qingxuan sighed and said with a wry smile.

"When I was little, my father was in the army, and my grandmother abused my mother and us behind his back, often not giving us food.

Mom went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and pick wild fruits, and my eldest brother, my third brother and I caught mice and snakes near her.

It was these things that kept the four of us, mother and children, from starving to death and kept us going until Dad came back."

After hearing this, Shen Qingli took Shen Qingxuan's hand and comforted him, "Brother, the hard times are over. Our lives will get better and better in the future!"

"Yeah! It will definitely get better and better!" Shen Qingxuan smiled slightly and held his sister's hand.

After the brother and sister had a sentimental chat for a while, they set out again and headed back.

As for the snake corpse, neither of them mentioned it again.

Shen Qingxuan could sense that his sister was unhappy, so he simply didn't mention it.

Shen Qingli was simply feeling disgusted and panicked!

The journey was smooth and there were no more accidents.

It was around ten o'clock in the morning when the two returned home.

Because of the busy autumn harvest, they were not allowed to go home for lunch, so Old Mrs. Shen temporarily handed over the cooking power to two idle people in the family - Shen Qingli and Shen Qingxuan.

But she was repeatedly warned not to waste the family's food, otherwise she would be deprived of the right to cook during the autumn harvest.

In order to ensure that her parents and brothers could have a good meal after the autumn harvest, Shen Qingli had to temporarily submit to the tyranny of Old Lady Shen.

Shen Qingli had no problem cooking. After all, she had lived alone for many years in her previous life, so she had developed good cooking skills.

But she really couldn't play with this kind of earthen stove, because she had never played with it in either her previous life or this life.

Fortunately, I have my second brother Shen Qingxuan!

Although he is blind, he and Shen Qingyang have taken turns helping Old Lady Shen since they were young, so he is very familiar with the stove.

The price, of course, is burn scars of varying sizes on the arms and hands.

After Shen Qingli moved the firewood to the side of the stove, Shen Qingxuan skillfully lit the fire in the stove.

It was definitely too late to make dumplings, so Shen Qingli planned to stew some rice and stir-fry a few dishes.

Old Shen's family only has one stove, so stewing rice and cooking need to be done separately. Shen Qingli plans to stew the rice first. She washes the purchased rice carefully and pours it into the big pot.

While the rice was cooking, Shen Qingli cleaned the pig offal one by one.

The heart, liver, spleen, lungs, etc. are easy to clean, but the large intestine and small intestine are the most difficult to clean.

In order to wash it clean, Shen Qingli even wasted some flour.

Fortunately, she and her blind second brother were the only ones at home. If others saw her washing pig intestines with flour, she would definitely be scolded for being a spendthrift and wasting food!

After washing and marinating the pig offal, Shen Qingli went to the vegetable garden to pick green peppers, carrots, etc.

After the rice was cooked, Shen Qingli suddenly remembered the pork fat in the backpack.

"Second brother, don't add any more firewood yet. Let the fire be a little lower. I want to make pork lard." Shen Qingli said to Shen Qingxuan while cutting the cleaned pork lard into pieces.
