Chapter 175: The Toad Wants to Eat the Swan Meat



Xie Xiaoling was also shocked by the Fire Phoenix Pearl.

She was speechless for a long time.

Then, she decisively stuffed the Fire Phoenix Pearl into Xie Wan's hand and said, "Hide it well, don't let anyone see it."

Xie Xiaoling opened her own cabinet and rummaged around for a long time before pulling out something wrapped in a handkerchief. When she opened it, she found several white pearls, some big and some small.

She took out a small one and said, "When you go out later, just say this is the one that opened."

Xie Wan felt that she, the fourth aunt, was so adorable.

She said, "Fourth Aunt, we are all family, there is no need to hide it, right?"

Fourth Aunt shook her head, "You picked up this giant conch, and the Fire Phoenix Pearl belongs to you alone.

If we take it out, even though we are a family, it will be disadvantageous.

Besides, there are many people and they all talk a lot. If the news leaks out, it would be a disaster for the whole family in ancient times.

It’s right to listen to Fourth Aunt.”

Xie Wan thought that although jewelry nowadays is not as valuable as in later generations, a rare pearl like the Fire Phoenix Pearl is probably worth at least a few hundred dollars.

If the news really leaks out, it will be really troublesome.

She did as Xie Xiaoling said and put away the Fire Phoenix Pearl.

When she went out with the little pearl, everyone looked at it and laughed.

In everyone's eyes, this little pearl is just a lucky charm.

In the evening, the meat of the giant conch was sliced ​​and eaten.

As expected, Lu Feng stayed and followed Xie Wan back to Xiejia Village.

They also carried back half a bag of oysters, abalone, Buddha's hands and swimming crabs.

Xie Xiaoling said she would dry the remaining ones and give them to Xie Wan and the others when they left.

That night, Xie Wan got garlic and chili peppers from the space and started roasting garlic oysters in the yard.

People living by the sea don’t actually eat like this at this time.

Even Lu Feng found it strange.

When Xie Wan finished roasting, the whole yard was filled with fragrance. After Xie Yuanchao ate the first one, he couldn't stop eating.

For people in Sichuan, oysters with minced garlic and a little bit of chopped fresh chili pepper are the perfect match.

Lu Feng can't eat spicy food, but after eating the oysters with garlic, he felt that they were much more flavorful than the blanched oysters he usually ate.

Of course, he felt that it was only a tie with the oyster omelette.

As Xie Wan ate, he muttered, "What a pity! If there was beer, it would be a perfect match!"

Beer does exist now, but it is rarely available in the country.

Xie Yuanchao and Lu Feng had never even heard of it.

Only then did Xie Wan ask Lu Feng about Lu Lan.

What Lu Feng said was similar to what Xie Xiaoyan said this morning, but with more details.

It turned out that Li Desheng, who fell in love with Lu Lan, was a little hooligan. Before he fell in love with Lu Lan, he had bullied several girls in the town.

One of them committed suicide after being humiliated.

That family went to make trouble with the Li family.

The Li family denied all responsibility, saying that they were just normal friends, that the woman had an affair with someone else and was too ashamed to face people, so she committed suicide out of depression, and it had nothing to do with his family.

There is no consensus on whether Li Desheng is Wang Hongguang's illegitimate son.

But Wang Hongguang did have an unclear relationship with Li Desheng's mother. It was said that the two had been together when they were young.

So even though Li Desheng was very rampant, no one could touch him.

If the Lu family had not kept a close eye on Lu Lan, Lu Lan would have almost been insulted by Li Desheng.

Even so, the Li family still threw dirty water on Lu Lan, saying that it was Lu Lan who seduced Li Desheng.

After hearing this, Xie Yuanchao wanted to go to the town to beat people up immediately.

Xie Wan held his brother and said, "Don't worry, we are going to town tomorrow anyway. I will meet this Li Desheng."

The next day, the family went to Xie Xiaoyan's house for dinner.

Xie Xiaoyan's house is a bungalow left by the ancestors of the Lu family. It is not large and has three rooms, so the family lives in a rather crowded environment.

Fortunately, there is an open space outside the house, and they have enclosed a small patio where they can cook and eat.

The meals are also very rich and are all local specialties.

My fifth uncle works as an accountant in a food factory and is considered an educated man.

While eating, the fifth uncle asked Xie Yuanchao: "Yuanchao, do you think Xiaofeng can also join the army?"

Xie Yuanchao said it depends on Lu Feng himself.

As long as he is willing, and he is old enough and physically fit, it is completely possible.

Lu Feng himself didn't really want to be a soldier, he wanted to study.

Xie Xiaoyan and her husband scolded their son for a long time, but Xie Wan advised: "Fifth aunt, fifth uncle, the college entrance examination will definitely be restored in a few years. Lu Feng likes to study and will have a bright future."

Fifth uncle thought that Xie Wan had some inside information given by Xie Dahong, so he hesitated.

After dinner, Xie Wan winked at Lu Feng.

Lu Feng understood immediately, and pulled Xie Yuanchao, the three siblings, out.

After leaving the house, Lu Feng asked excitedly: "Cousin, what are you going to do to Li Desheng?"

Xie Wan said: "Take me to his house and Wang Hongguang's house first, and wait until I am familiar with them, and then think of a solution."

However, they didn't expect that not long after they started walking, they met Li Desheng and a few local thugs on the street, walking towards them in a swagger.

Li Desheng doesn't look very old, maybe twenty years old at most, and he has a shifty look, especially on his chin, where there is a black mole the size of a little finger, which looks very ugly.

Xie Wan muttered, "Ugly people are often evil. With his looks, he wants to marry Sister Lanlan. He is like a toad wanting to eat swan flesh."

Li Desheng also saw the three of them. He knew Lu Feng, so he walked over and shouted at Lu Feng:

"Hey, isn't this my cheap brother-in-law?

Why didn't your sister come out with you? Did I make her legs weak last night and she can't walk?"

The gang of hooligans following him laughed loudly.

After hearing this, the people on the road were skeptical, and the looks they gave Lu Feng and the other three people seemed to be unpleasant.

This guy relied on his foul language to make Lu Lan afraid to even leave the house.

Many people who did not know the truth were misled by Li Desheng and actually thought that Lu Lan was already having an affair with him.

Lu Feng couldn't tolerate this and was about to rush up and fight with Li Desheng.

Xie Wan felt that he would be beaten if he rushed over, so he held him back.

At this moment, Li Desheng saw Xie Wan and his eyes suddenly lit up.

He approached Lu Feng with a greedy look and asked, "Hey, is this girl also from your Lu family? She's even prettier than your sister?"

Originally, Xie Yuanchao was still waiting for Xie Wan to give orders, but when he heard that this kid was actually planning to target Xie Wan, Xie Yuanchao couldn't stand it anymore and kicked Li Desheng out.

When the gang saw the fight starting, they all rushed over to join in.

But how could they be a match for Xie Yuanchao?

In no time, all six people in the group were knocked to the ground.

Xie Wan then walked over, stepped on Li Desheng's back, used his strength to ask, "I heard that you are Wang Hongguang's illegitimate son?"
