Shen Zhaozhao smiled, but didn't mind at all that Yang Hanliu was talking about him indirectly.
"Brother officer, I am a cautious person by nature. It always helps to be prepared."
"Of course, the book I read may be wrong, so I still have to take what the officer says as the standard."
Shen Zhaozhao looked back at the Zhan family.
The calves were all bulging and stuffed with straw.
Guo even raised her legs and patted them, indicating that she had stuffed them very tightly.
Since her family was ready, she just tucked her trouser legs into the thatched grass. She didn't care much whether other people would be bitten by snakes.
As they were talking, the people sent by the Chen and Cao families came back with arms full of thatch. The two families were afraid that the officers would chase them away, so they did not dare to delay and immediately followed the example of the Zhan family and stuffed the thatch into their trouser legs.
Jiang Hu made up his mind and ordered his servants, "Go, cut some back and we will build a camp."
Zhao Jiusan already believed in Shen Zhaozhao, so he ran away at the command of his boss.
Other officials were assigned to other posts one after another.
Ding Daniu insisted not to go, watching Zhao Jiusan tying up his trouser legs to prevent the straw from falling off, "You really take the words of a woman who has never been out of the house seriously?"
"It's better to be safe than sorry." Zhao Jiusan stood up and patted his trouser legs.
It's stuffed quite firmly.
"Okay, get ready, hurry up and get going!" Jiang Hu tucked in his trouser legs and urged everyone to set off.
Among this group of people, only the Yang family was suppressed by Yang Zhangqiu, so no one had any stuffing.
After walking for a long time in the sun, everyone was tired.
People who stuffed grass into their trouser legs felt that their legs were heavy and difficult to stretch and flex. After a while, they began to complain.
"I can't even stretch my legs straight. This road is just barren land. How can there be any snakes?"
"Forget it, I can't stand it. It's too hot."
At the Cao family, Cao Yue was threatening to throw away all the straw used to lacerate his legs. The child's skin was tender, and his fair legs were rubbed by the rough straw, and even had their skin broken.
Mrs. Cao couldn't bear Cao Yue's crying, so she unbuttoned her son's trouser legs, took out the straw and took a look. Her heart ached.
He hugged Cao Yuehao and coaxed him.
"What a crap thing! It hurt our legs so badly."
"My mother will kill me!"
As Mrs. Cao spoke, she threw the straw heavily toward the girl and stepped on it a few times.
While stepping on it, he looked at Cao Ya with resentment.
If Cao Ya hadn't been so talkative, how could her Yue'er have suffered such a punishment!
He was so angry that his steps became heavier, as if he was stepping on Cao Ya's face.
"Throw away that bad girl, Auntie!" Cao Yue pointed at the bulging trouser legs of Mrs. Cao.
Mrs. Cao quickly agreed and was about to unbutton her trouser legs when the officer's whip landed on her side.
"Hurry up, stop dawdling. Do you think you are the eldest lady of the capital?"
Mrs. Cao hurriedly got up and took Cao Yue with her to hurry on.
"Mother, just throw it away when you get a chance, and let us step on it, what a piece of broken grass."
The Zhan family walked behind the team, and along the way, Shen Zhaozhao saw a lot of discarded thatch.
"This grass is really thatch, it's making my legs uncomfortable." Yang Shixiao couldn't stand it anymore. Looking at the people in the front of the team who had thrown away the thatch, and the Yang family members whose trouser legs were empty, she felt miserable.
"Ayao, shall we throw it away?"
Yang said to Zhan Xiaoyao who was supporting her.
"Don't, Third Sister-in-law always does things with evidence, so just be patient." Zhan �yao believed in Shen Zhaozhao very much.
My third sister-in-law specifically asked everyone to tuck in their trouser legs, so it must be necessary.
"There's no snake at all," Yang felt her legs were rubbing against her, and she was sweating. She couldn't stand it any longer, "Your third sister-in-law is just a little girl who never leaves the house. She doesn't know as much as you do."
After Yang finished speaking, she bent down and was about to unbutton her trouser legs.
"Mom, listen to Zhao Zhao."
A somewhat hoarse male voice was heard.
Yang paused, raised her eyes, and saw Zhan Nanxing who was being carried.
"Listen to Zhao Zhao." Zhan Nanxing's peach blossom eyes were full of solemnity at this moment, and his handsome face stared at Yang without any expression.
Yang silently withdrew her hand, stood up, and muttered unwillingly: "I forgot my mother when I got a wife. Whatever my wife says is right."
Zhan Xiaoyao listened, lowered her head and said nothing.
Mom, if you hadn't been partial to Yang Hanliu and hurt my brother's feelings, I wouldn't have treated you like this!
The servants who had their legs stuffed with straw felt uncomfortable; the sun was scorching and their legs began to itch and hurt more.
"What do you think? Listen to me and throw away the straw." Ding Daniu walked to Zhao Jiusan, looking a little gloating, and pointed ahead, "Look, it's just a wasteland of yellow mud. In this weather, snakes will be dead in no time if they come out."
Zhao Jiusan felt uncomfortable, but seeing that his boss Jiang Hu in front of him could bear it and not throw it away, he could bear it too.
"Let's just leave it at that for now, we're on our way!"
Ding Daniu chuckled, "I think it would be better for us to listen to that woman surnamed Yang than to listen to that Shen family. See."
A big hand pointed.
At the front of the team, the Yang family walked briskly, without any of the hardships that the people behind them experienced.
Zhao Jiusan gritted his teeth and endured it. When his leader took a rest, he threw away the straw in his trouser legs.
After walking for most of the day, the sun was setting.
The vast wasteland stretched forward, with a thick yellow mud road surface, and gradually, many weeds grew.
"There's really grass growing on this road..." Jiang Hu squinted his eyes and looked ahead. A small stream that he had never seen before passed through the road, bringing abundant water.
On the yellow mud road, the weeds gradually increased until a green meadow appeared at the end of the field of vision.
"There's grass ahead, be alert."
Jiang Hu gave the order, looked around, picked up a long branch, and hurried to the front of the team to lead the way.
"It's really fucking awesome." Zhao Jiusan felt like he had been holding back for a whole day just for this moment, so he straightened his back.
Worth it.
"This piece of grass has just grown. How can such short grass hide a snake?" Ding Daniu still didn't care and kicked the weeds under his feet.
The same was true for Yang Hanliu who was at the front of the team.
Today is her happiest day in all these days.
From time to time, someone in the team behind could be heard cursing Shen Zhaozhao for his bad idea.
As we walked along, people threw straw along the way.
Yang Hanliu felt that what they threw was not grass, but Shen Zhaozhao’s face.
Even her relatives and tribesmen praised her after seeing the miserable look of the people behind her.
Yang Hanliu kicked the weeds under her feet.
Sparse.
It's still short, how can it be a snake?
She raised her head, full of confidence and satisfaction, and followed Jiang Hu's steps.
Walked into the grass.
