Chapter 36: Failed to do anything and got scolded



They haven't lived enough yet.

As a result, the old woman, who had been waiting for a long time to see the show, saw that the officers were indifferent, so she went up to them and told them the same thing again.

The officers were very impatient.

“You old woman can’t even walk tired, and you still have time to gossip about others. I think you want to cause trouble.

Do you really think we are stupid?

I wonder if you want us to give the Meng family a good beating and bring bad luck to them?

Your calculations are too loud!"

When the old woman saw the officer's face suddenly change and he swung the whip in his hand, she was so scared that she almost knelt down.

"No, sir, you misunderstood.

Their horses and carriages were actually stolen from bandits.

If you don’t believe me, ask them; they all know.”

When the people around the old woman heard her say this, they immediately shook their heads at the difference.

"She's talking nonsense. We don't know."

"How could you not know? You all knew it, you..."

“That’s enough!”

The officer was impatient.

"If this old woman causes trouble again, the whole family will be whipped!"

The old woman's son immediately came over and took his mother away, feeling very embarrassed.

Qiao Qinglu, who was in the crowd, cursed inwardly, saying it was useless.

He quietly hid at the back of the crowd, far away from the Meng family.

Meng Shuyan's family was unaware of the old woman and Qiao Qinglu's tricks.

For dinner, I cooked wild vegetable soup with shepherd's purse, which tasted really delicious.

After dinner, the whole family went together to dig wild vegetables.

They dug up anything that Meng Shuyan said was edible.

"You know quite a lot."

Doctor Zhou and his family also followed.

Their family doesn't have any idea that they can't eat wild vegetables now, just because it's a different time now.

Just don't steal, rob or break the law.

"Haha, it's not that our ancestors weren't very good in the past, but they did know a few edible wild vegetables.

Doctor Zhou must know more, I wonder if I could learn a thing or two from you."

Mr. Meng and Doctor Zhou are now very good friends.

The two old men of similar age can chat with each other very well.

“Okay, okay.

This is called white cauliflower. The tender and pointed shoots are very good, but they are inedible when they are old.

There is also this one called gray vegetable, which tastes a bit sour, but is also good.

If you pick more than you can eat, you can dry it and then soak it in water and stir-fry it when you want to eat it again."

"Brother Zhou is very knowledgeable and has a long-term perspective.

It is said that we are going to Luzhou area. I don’t know what the situation is like there, whether it will snow in winter and whether there will be vegetables to eat.

As Brother Zhou said, we should pick more wild vegetables to store."
