Chapter 35 You are doing private work

Yang Xiaohong was also a little disappointed, and Wang Bin frowned.

"Okay, let's... be careful and don't move..."

Xia Liang originally wanted to go back first, but her eyes accidentally saw that just one step away to the left of Yang Xiaohong, there was a small snake with red and white stripes, staring at Yang Xiaohong with its tongue spitting out.

"ah……"

Yang Xiaohong also saw it. She was afraid of snakes and knew that the more beautiful the snake, the more poisonous it was. At this moment, she dared not move at all.

She was so scared that her whole body began to tremble. Wang Bin moved away and when he saw the poisonous snake, the smiling expression on his face disappeared instantly.

"ah……"

The poisonous snake just paused for a moment, then suddenly jumped up and bit Yang Xiaohong fiercely.

Yang Xiaohong was so scared that she closed her eyes and screamed, but before she could finish her words, a small knife flew over and hit the poisonous snake directly in the weak spot.

With a snap, the poisonous snake's body was split into two parts, and Yang Xiaohong was frightened and fell to the ground.

"Hey, they're all dead. Weren't you very powerful just now? Is that all you have to be brave enough?"

Wang Bin looked amused when he saw the frightened Yang Xiaohong.

Xia Liang: This guy is really a straight man.

"Wang Bin, do you have a wife?"

It can be seen that Wang Bin is a little older than these educated youth.

"Ah... no."

When suddenly asked about his wife, Wang Bin's face turned red.

"Sure enough!" Xia Liang looked at Wang Bin who was confused:

"Given your personality, you are still single based on your own strength."

Yang Xiaohong was so scared just now. If it were an ordinary man, even if he was not familiar with her, he would go over and say a few words of comfort, right?

It's nothing like Wang Bin. It's just that Yang Xiaohong hasn't come to her senses yet, otherwise, she would have slapped him twice.

"I...what's wrong with me?"

Xia Liang didn't explain. She went over to help Yang Xiaohong up and comforted her softly:

"It's okay, don't be afraid."

"I... Sister Xia Liang, I was really scared to death just now."

"Wow, that snake looks very poisonous. I'm so scared of being poisoned to death."

"Sister Xia Liang, why are there poisonous snakes here?"

Looking at the little girl who was crying incoherently, Xia Liang hugged her tightly.

"It's okay. Isn't Brother Wang Bin here? He will protect us."

It was rare that Wang Bin didn't say anything this time. Maybe he was still thinking about what Xia Liang had just said.

After Yang Xiaohong calmed down, Xia Liang went over and carefully used a branch to pick up the poisonous snake and put it into a bottle.

Fortunately, she brought a few bottles today, otherwise she would not be able to bring the snake's body back.

"Sister Xia Liang, do you want this too?"

"Well, a poisonous snake is a treasure. If you encounter one, you must not miss it."

“It’s poisonous.”

"It's okay, I'll take care of it when I get back."

Because of the poisonous snake incident, both of them were much calmer when they returned.

The way they returned to the village was different from the way they came. Xia Liang saw some nice medicinal herbs, so she naturally wouldn't miss them.

They also saw a small piece of mushroom, which Xia Liang knew was edible, so the three of them quickly put it away.

When we returned, all three backpacks were full. The only regret was that we were still missing one medicinal ingredient.

…

"Ah, I'm not alive anymore."

As soon as Xia Liang returned to the door of the village chief's house, he heard the familiar wailing of Xia's mother.

Xia Liang raised her eyebrows, and Yang Xiaohong also looked puzzled.

"Sister Xia Liang, what happened to your mother?"

"Let's put the things down secretly first."

Xia's mother is not a reasonable person. As long as Xia Jing says that the things in her basket are valuable, she will definitely roll over and throw things away to get the things.

Mother Xia has always been so domineering. This is not the first time she has seen this in her previous life.

"Hide everything."

Xia Liang thought about it and decided that she didn't want to cause trouble. She had just moved into the village chief's house and there were constant troubles. What if he got angry?

"Ah, sister Xia Liang, no need?"

Wang Bin also heard Xia's mother crying, and he didn't think it was that serious.

"Just listen to me."

Just as Xia Liang and his friends were about to leave, Xia's mother in the educated youth's yard had already stood up.

Li Xue was sharp-eyed. She told Xia's mother as soon as she saw Xia Liang coming back.

Xia Jing worked a day today and earned 2.5 work points, which was an exception. She did it all by herself. Now she is so tired that she doesn't want to move at all.

But her mother is still making a fuss here.

When she heard that Xia Liang had returned, she couldn't hide the jealousy in her eyes.

When she got off work, she saw the glaring number 5 behind Xia Liang's name.

It was so unfair. Her hard work for a day wasn't as good as Xia Liang's work points from a day of play.

I don't know what kind of seductive tricks Xia Liang used on the village chief. Why did Xia Liang get work points without working?

Xia's mother came out, and Xia Jing followed her.

When Xia Jing saw Wang Bin, her eyes lit up. Although this man was not as good as Zhou Haobai, he looked different from the people in the village and had a different temperament.

And Xia Liang...

She saw many familiar herbs in the three full baskets. They had dug there before, but never in this much quantity.

"Mom, there are so many herbs. I estimate they can sell for at least a dozen dollars."

Xia Jing understood that Xia Liang was a little different from before, and she might not be able to get money from Xia Liang.

But her mother is different. Not a penny has ever slipped from Xia's mother's hands.

"A dozen bucks?"

Mother Xia's eyes were rolling around as she looked at the three baskets. Could it be that these grasses, which she couldn't even understand, were so valuable?

"Well, no more, no less."

Mother Xia's eyes became brighter. She looked at the basket greedily, wishing she could snatch it away right now.

Although Xia Jing's words were not loud, Xia Liang and the others heard them.

Wang Bin's eyes turned cold and he glanced at Xia Jing coldly.

Xia Jing was so scared that she shrank her neck and leaned back against her mother.

"Xia Liang, why are you not going to work in broad daylight? What are you doing?"

Mother Xia had a smile on her face and took a few steps forward, wanting to take the backpack from Xia Liang's hand.

"The village chief asked me to go to the mountains to look for medicinal herbs."

"Why did you go find him when the village chief asked you to? Xia Liang, you are doing private work."

Mother Xia sneered and reached out to grab the backpack, but Wang Bin was faster than her. He snatched it away before Mother Xia could make a move and put it behind him.

"Auntie, what do you mean by doing private work? Comrade Xia Liang also gets work points for collecting herbs in the mountains."

"Humph, if you say so, then so be it."

"Ahem, what's wrong?"

Yang Aiguo saw that there were quite a few people outside the Youth League Institute, and he was now overwhelmed.

When will this Xia Mu leave? She has never been quiet.

"Uncle Yang, the lady just said that you asked Xia Liang to collect herbs as a private job, and she doesn't believe that you will give Xia Liang work points."

"Oh, you are really interesting. What does the arrangement of our Yangliu Village have to do with you?"

When Yang Aiguo heard Xia's mother say that she was doing illegal work, he was so angry that his beard started to curl up.

"I...shouldn't my daughter go down to the ground?"

"How Yangliu Village is arranged is none of your business."

"But, even if we really have to go to collect herbs, Jingjing is more suitable than Xia Liang, a bitch."
