Chapter 82 We’ll have more dishes in our meal tomorrow!
The door curtain of the tent was open. After taking a few steps closer, I heard rustling sounds from inside.
It was late at night and the sound was not loud, but it was creepy.
How many scorpions would it take to make such a sound?
Ye Jinmo wanted to go in and see the situation first, but her senior brother stopped her.
"You wait outside." Ye Jinqian said he would not let the two girls go in and take risks no matter what.
Before he stepped into the door, he looked into the house under the incandescent light.
In an instant, my scalp exploded.
Everywhere you look, there are scorpions everywhere.
Seeing his strange expression, Ye Jinmo leaned over to look at him, her eyes suddenly turned cold, and she pursed her pink lips.
Someone definitely did this on purpose!
It is normal to have scorpions in this season, but she sprinkled a lot of medicinal powder at the door, so even snakes didn't dare to approach, let alone scorpions.
Coincidentally, they were all gathered in her tent.
Tan Qinghuan's eyes were full of self-blame: "When I came back, I saw someone sneaking around our tent. I followed him, but it was too dark and I couldn't see who it was. When I returned to the tent again, he looked like this. I even used branches to drive him away for a long time, but it was no use."
She grew up in the countryside and was naturally not afraid of these insects and snakes, but she couldn't stand so many of them!
Just then, a branch not far away made a noise.
Ye Jinmo tilted her head and looked, but it was pitch dark and she couldn't see anything clearly.
She slowly withdrew her gaze and glanced towards the place where the sound came from.
Sure enough, a figure flashed by.
In the moonlight, she could clearly see the edge of the man's blue clothes. He had short hair and was tall and thin. He looked like a man.
Ye Jinqian's expression was not looking good either: "You guys go stay at my place tonight."
She shook her head and curled the corners of her lips coldly: "The person who released the scorpion is also very brave. With so many, he is not afraid of being bitten."
"If I knew who was responsible, I would beat him up!" Tan Qinghuan was filled with righteous indignation.
Ye Jinmo touched his chin, thinking deeply, and an idea slowly emerged in his mind.
"Anyway, we have to deal with these things first. Brother, do you have any insect repellent powder?"
"Yes, I'll get it!" Ye Jinqian turned around and left quickly.
The insect repellent powder was developed by her and her master. In Baicaotang, all kinds of insects would appear every summer. In order to solve this problem, she specially found five kinds of medicinal herbs, ground them into powder, and then combined them with her master's exclusive medicine. The effect was very powerful, and only a little bit was needed to stun all the insects.
Ye Jinqian brought a gourd medicine bottle and scattered it around the door.
In an instant, hundreds of scorpions rushed to the door like possessed people, and then stopped moving, and the tips of their tails that were originally raised high also fell down.
Tan Qinghuan was a little frightened. In less than three minutes, so many scorpions condensed into the size of a palm, piled up into a small hill, and fainted collectively.
Ye Jinmo tilted her head and looked at her senior brother with curved eyebrows: "You said that my master and I mixed the medicine randomly. Look, is it very effective?"
Ye Jinqian was helpless, his eyes were gentle and doting. He raised his hand and tapped her head. Then he collected the scorpions in the plastic bag he brought and tied it tightly.
"Yes, yes, my junior sister is a genius at making medicines. I'll go throw these things away..."
"No!" She snatched the bag and smiled mysteriously, "This is evidence, how can you throw it away? We'll have extra food tomorrow!"
Hearing this, Tan Qinghuan looked at her, then at the bag of scorpions, and instantly understood.
"Leave it to me. I'm an expert at frying scorpions!" she assured, patting her chest.
When she was a child and had no food to eat, she and the other children in the village went to the river to catch fish, went up the mountain to catch rabbits, and even ate snakes and scorpions.
Especially scorpions, she secretly stole some oil from home, cut off the tip of the scorpion's tail, and rolled it in hot oil. It smelled so good!
Ye Jinqian opened his mouth but couldn't say anything for a long time.
He looked at the little girl in front of him with a cunning face, and asked himself, she had never been hungry since she was a child, how could she know such...unique food?
Perhaps sensing his worry, Ye Jinmo stepped on tiptoe and patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, brother. The insect repellent powder is made from Chinese herbal medicine and is harmless to the human body. I have also seen these scorpions. They are all ordinary scorpions and are not very toxic. Tomorrow, if you cut off the tip of their tails, they will be high-protein delicacies!"
A gust of wind blew by, and he pulled his coat closer, suddenly feeling a little cold.
It has been such a long time since they last met, how come his well-behaved and lovely junior sister has become so sinister?
I don’t even know who I learned this from!
"Then you should go to bed early. I won't have dinner with you tomorrow." He looked at the plastic bag seriously, turned and left.
Tan Qinghuan looked at his leaving back and asked cautiously: "Jinmo, is Professor Ye angry?"
"No, Senior Brother has never liked these strange things. In the past, Master and I secretly hunted rabbits and took bird eggs, but we didn't dare let him know."
The two girls talked quietly and turned back to the tent.
Ye Jinmo put the plastic bag outside the door and pressed it with a stone.
With the door curtain down, warmth gradually came over me.
After a quick wash, she lay down in her sleeping bag, took out her cell phone, flipped through the photos she had taken today, and randomly picked two to post on her Moments.
Ji Sichen liked it immediately.
Thinking about what happened that night, she couldn't help blushing.
The even breathing sound of Tan Qinghuan beside her could be heard, and she was terrified tonight.
Ye Jinmo looked at the WeChat dialog box, opened the keyboard, and just as she was thinking about what to say, the other party sent a location.
Qingshan Hotel.
[I’ve returned to the hotel.] 】
She replied with two words: OK.
After thinking for a long time, he added: Brother Chen, go to bed early, I am very happy tonight.
~
On the other side, in the hotel.
Ji Sichen was wearing a bathrobe, leaning against the head of the bed, staring at the screen of his mobile phone, with a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
Telling him to go to bed early, isn't this caring?
happy.
The corners of the mouth can't be suppressed at all.
He opened the photo album on his phone and found the most recent photos, all of which were of the girl's back in the moonlight, with the starry sky, which was particularly romantic.
He picked one and set it as wallpaper.
His little girl is so pretty even from behind!
At this time, Grandma Ji called via video.
"What are you thinking about, you little brat? Why are you so happy?"
"Nothing, grandma. Why are you calling so late? Is there something wrong?"
The old man smiled and said, "I was wondering why you went to Qingshan City and met Jinmo girl?"
He didn't say anything, but the smile between his eyebrows gave the answer.
"You better work harder. I heard that Jinmo's senior brother is back. He's very handsome. You, too, look OK..."
"Grandma!" he interrupted, "I'm your grandson!"
The old man was amused and waved his hands: "Alright, alright, let's get down to business. I heard from Shaoqing that Jinmo is looking for a doctor named Shang Ruyu recently. She went to Qingshan City recently. Please help keep an eye on her."
