Chapter 30 He is quite innocent
When you pinch it with your hands, water comes out.
"Wow! There is actually such a plant!" Huo Jingya shouted excitedly.
Then he couldn't wait to find a stone and start digging.
Everyone started digging together, and Lian Yun Narcissus started digging in a hurry, fearing that others would take it all away.
Soon more than a dozen "big radishes" were dug out.
"Sister-in-law, is this delicious?"
"It's not tasty, I can only sip the water."
That's great too! At least I don't have to worry about dying of thirst!
I feel that as long as my fourth sister-in-law is around, I won’t feel hungry anymore.
Huo Jingya immediately wiped one and took a bite.
A mouth full of water, followed by a sugarcane-like tissue that I chewed a few times and spit out.
"This water is not sweet and not very tasty." She frowned.
She didn't know that this was the taste of real water from the West.
It’s even more bitter than the water in the capital.
The old lady glanced at her and said, "How can there be so much sweet water? Our water tastes so good because your fourth sister-in-law found wheat stones to process it."
"It's medical stone." Sang Ning added with a smile.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law smiled knowingly.
Of course, the old lady thought she was protecting the Tai Sui meat.
And Sonning was using one lie to cover up another lie.
Fortunately, the old lady helped to fill the gap, and the lie became a solid circle.
So now in the jar, besides a piece of fish meat, there are also a few stones fished out from the spiritual spring as camouflage.
"Medical stone, also known as longevity stone, is the source of some mountain springs' particularly sweet taste, precisely because they've been filtered through it. I accidentally picked up a few."
Everyone suddenly realized, no wonder the water tastes so good!
Although the old lady knew that it was not the effect of medical stone, she was still amazed at Sang Ning's knowledge. She had never heard of medical stone or spindle before.
I couldn't help but ask: "Fourth daughter-in-law, how do you know all this?"
"I've read some miscellaneous books before, one of which is called Wilderness Survival, and I think it's mentioned there."
“Is there such a book?”
Xiao Jintang came over holding something, tilted his head and asked in confusion.
"I haven't seen it in Daddy's study."
As everyone knows, Huo Qingchuan, the eldest son of the Huo family, is well-educated and well-read. His study contains almost all kinds of books from Dongyang and even foreign countries.
Xiao Jintang spent the whole day in the study. He was familiar with the classification and arrangement of books, as if he had never seen such books before.
From a distance, Huo Changan shouted, "There is such a book. I took it out and read it before, but I just forgot where I lost it."
"Ah! Fourth uncle threw away such a great book. He really doesn't cherish it." Xiao Jintang felt sorry.
The old lady laughed and scolded Huo Changan: "You can hear it even from such a distance."
Everyone laughed.
Sang Ning also laughed. It was obvious that Huo Changan didn't like reading. He didn't even know which book he had memorized!
Little Jintang excitedly held the thing in his hand and showed it as a treasure, "Aunt Four, look, I found a bird's egg."
"Ah, you can actually find bird eggs! You're amazing! Much more amazing than your aunt!"
Huo Jingya looked sad again.
Xiao Jintang blushed with excitement: "Cook it for my sister!"
"Well... don't want it anymore?" Sang Ning picked up an egg, looked at it, and then said.
"Why? Is it poisonous?"
"It's not poisonous. Look, there's a crack in this egg. It must be about to hatch a chick. It won't taste good if you cook it, and it might even kill a few babies."
Sang Ning looked at Jintang, who had suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but say, "Fourth Aunt loves to eat. She believes that everything is edible and that everything in the world is a gift from heaven and earth to mankind. But there is something she never dares to eat because it feels cruel."
“It is the mother body that nurtures life.”
"For example, this bird egg that's about to hatch, and this fish with a belly full of eggs."
"The world is a cycle, and everything has cause and effect. Prosperity or destruction is the result of human choices."
Xiao Jintang didn’t understand the last sentence, but others did.
The old lady was shocked again.
She still underestimated Sonning.
This is a person with great wisdom.
The old lady looked at her for a long time, and finally made some kind of decision.
"Ning'er, come with me."
The old lady called her to Huo Changan.
Then he pulled out the hairpin she was wearing from her head.
This is what the old lady has been wearing on her head since she was young. It is said that it was the first gift given to her by Marquis Boyang when he was an obscure person. Many people in Beijing know about it.
The hairpin was black, and I didn't know what it was made of. It looked like wood and iron, and it was very ugly. It looked worthless, and it looked similar to the ones that the old woman in the countryside wore on her hair. So when the officials searched the house, they didn't take it away.
"I'll give you this Ruyi hairpin. Money is less important than friendship. I hope you and Old Four can be as loving and loving as your father and I, forever."
The old lady put it on Sang Ning directly.
Ah, this...
"Mom, this is a token of love between you and Dad, how can you give it to me?"
The main thing is... it's ugly!
"Keep it. When there's a chance, let the fourth brother tell you the origin of this Ruyi hairpin." The old lady grabbed her hand that was about to pull out the hairpin, her voice full of meaning.
He looked at Huo Changan.
Huo Changan nodded imperceptibly.
The old lady smiled and put Sang Ning's hand and Huo Chang'an's hand together.
“Fate is God’s most wonderful arrangement.”
"It's the same with me and the Marquis, and it's the same with you two."
"Ning'er, I leave the fourth one to you."
"This child was born prematurely and was weak. After a few years of care and recovery, he became lazy and undisciplined. He didn't like studying literature and his martial arts skills were not very good. Among the doctors in the Huo family, he was not outstanding."
Huo Changan felt a little embarrassed: "Mom~"
Why are you saying this?
"But mother can guarantee that he has a pure heart and is self-disciplined. He doesn't have the bad habits that children from wealthy families have."
"It's just that sometimes he's a little too rigid, which makes people worry."
The old lady continued talking for a long time, ignoring Huo Changan's occasional coughs.
Finally, she said, "Mother made you the head of the family during this most difficult time because she saw that you are the only one who can do it. Don't worry, since you are the head of the family now, you will be the head of the family for the rest of your life, even if the Huo family returns to Gaohui in the future."
The old lady might have wanted to give Sang Ning some peace of mind, but this was not what Sang Ning wanted at all!
She doesn't want to be one at all, okay?
However, it seems that the old lady knows that the Huo family can still make a comeback?
Is there anything you can rely on?
As soon as the old lady let go, Huo Changan immediately withdrew his hand.
If you don’t know, you would think he is disgusted.
But the red, bleeding earlobe had already betrayed him.
It's indeed quite innocent.
"Promising!"
The old lady cursed with a smile again and stood up with the help of her knees.
After handing the Ruyi hairpin to Sang Ning, the tension in her body finally relaxed.
The discomfort in my chest is becoming more and more obvious, I need to go and rest.
After the old lady left, the two of them didn't speak to each other anymore.
Li Yuzhi asked Jintang to bring some wild vegetable soup to the two of them.
Huo Changan was just about to say something to him to lighten the mood, but this kid ran away again as if he had done something wrong!
"This kid..."
Sang Ning suddenly grabbed his hand.
The boy froze.
Eyelashes tremble rapidly.
"What, what are you doing?"
"Listen, is there any movement?"
A bird flapped its wings and flew away from the branch.
The wind blew the sparse leaves, making a dry, frictionous sound.
By the way, transmit some slight movements over.
Huo Changan's expression changed, "Hurry up! They're horse bandits!"
They came looking for me again!
It really is haunting!
Immediately, everyone evacuated quickly.
Sanning stayed at the end to erase some traces.
When I left, I could hear the sound clearly, it was indeed the horse bandits.
"This mountain only has one exit from the east. I'm sure a few women and children wouldn't dare go deep into the mountains. We'll definitely catch them!"
"You're so impatient. You can wait outside just as long as they come out. I don't believe they won't come out!"
"Hey, big brother, those women are all beautiful. I really can't wait. Besides, they have food in their hands. We must catch them quickly!"
"That's true. Eh? Over there!"
A horse bandit yelled and looked at the long-haired woman standing with her back to him with shining eyes.
"Haha! I saw it first! This one's mine!"
The bandits ran over.
"Are you here, looking for me?" the woman said in a faint voice, turning around.
But when I turned around, I still saw her with long hair all over her back!
