She watched Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei running around like wild rabbits, and said, "That's enough. Let's divide the work."
Mingmei: "Okay, you say!"
They came to the mountain to catch fish, not for a spring outing. Mingmei also became serious: "We'll do whatever you say!"
Mingmei rarely went up the mountain, and she didn't know anything about such a barren mountain in the suburbs, but she had a good personality, and she never showed off when she didn't understand something, and she obeyed the instructions. Zhao Guihua nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's split into two groups. Old man, the two of us will go fishing here together. I also borrowed a fishing net from Sister Wang. If it doesn't work, let's try casting the net and see what happens. Third brother, you and your wife carry a basket and walk around to see if there are any wild fruits or something like that. If not, you can look for mugwort and pick some to take home."
After a pause, she said, "Do you know any wild fruits?"
Zhuang Zhixi felt very aggrieved: "Mom, I don't even know what to eat, am I stupid? You think I'm a little kid like Tiger Head. Don't worry."
Zhao Guihua nodded and said, "Okay, let's do this for the morning. You guys can come over for lunch at noon. After lunch, we'll make adjustments in the afternoon. Let's see whether we should dig wild vegetables or go to the rabbit hole."
Zhuang Laonian: "Rabbits are very smart. You blocked them directly last time. I guess that rabbit hole is useless now."
He did understand a little bit, so Zhao Guihua didn't dwell on it too much. She nodded and said, "Okay, let's go over there this afternoon and try to catch some rabbits. If we find some, that's even better, but if we don't, that's fine. We're mainly going to the mountains to fish this time. I really don't believe it, how come I, Zhao Guihua, can't catch a single fish?"
She said, "There's nothing wrong with my bait."
She was really angry. She had been practicing for a long time. Whenever she had time, she would go fishing and sometimes ride her bike up the mountain. But the harvest was not ideal. Oh, it was zero.
It's so infuriating.
"Could it be that we caught too many fish earlier, and there are no fish here?"
"Pfft, how is that possible?" As soon as Zhuang Zhixi finished speaking, he met his mother's death gaze. He immediately coughed, looked up at the sky and down at the ground, but not at his biological mother, and said something else: "Hey, Mingmei, should we go now?"
Zhao Guihua snorted heavily and said, "You little bastard."
Zhuang Zhixi carried the basket and led his wife by the hand, and ran away quickly. He ran away and whispered to his wife: "I don't think my mother has any talent for fishing."
Zhao Guihua roared like a lion: "Zhuang Zhixi, you bastard, I heard it!!!"
Zhuang Zhixi immediately covered his ears, and Mingmei bent over with laughter.
The couple left quickly. Zhuang Zhixi looked around and said, "Let's make a mark so we don't go too far and lose our way back."
Mingmei looked at Zhuang Zhixi in surprise and said, "It's okay, I remember the way."
Zhuang Zhixi immediately laughed and said, "My wife is so amazing."
Mingmei proudly put her hands on her hips and pretended to be arrogant: "What do you think? When I was a child, I often climbed into my dad's car and went out with him. I remember the way very well, so I'm used to it."
Zhuang Zhixi gave a thumbs up.
Mingmei: "Let's go. I haven't been to the mountains much yet. Are there any wild fruits in this season? Don't fruits only ripen in autumn?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "Just look around. If there are any, pick them. If there are none, that's fine. Anyway, my mom said we'll see how the situation changes after lunch."
Mingmei nodded and said with a smile, "Okay."
She said proudly: "I have always had good luck, maybe we can find something good."
Zhuang Zhixi laughed and teased, "Are you bragging to me?"
Mingmei: "...You're just bragging. I'm telling the truth."
The two of them wandered around together. It was great to go out for a walk in the spring. Even if they couldn't find anything, it was still a relief. The whole mountain was greener. It was completely different from when they went up the mountain before the New Year. Zhuang Zhixi was still touched, but Mingmei was not.
After all, it was her first time here, so she looked around happily. Zhuang Zhixi: "My mother picked some strawberries last time, but unfortunately, Little Tiger was in the hospital, so she brought them all over. Ever since Tiger and Little Swallow were born, I am no longer my mother's favorite child..."
Mingmei looked at Zhuang Zhixi teasingly.
Zhuang Zhixi sighed, but soon said happily: "But fortunately, my brother said the same thing."
Mingmei: “Puff!”
Zhuang Zhixi smiled and said, "My brother and sister are not much different in age, so they don't look that big together. But there is still a few years difference between me and them, so when I was born, my brother and sister were more or less sensible. My brother often said that I stole my mother's love. I stole his love back then, and now his son is stealing my love. It's really a cycle of cause and effect!"
Mingmei: “Pfft.”
Zhuang Zhixi saw her overjoyed look and said, "Why are you like a watering can?"
Mingmei said coquettishly: "I'm happy to... Hey, hey, look, there are strawberries over there."
"Hey, let me see!"
Zhuang Zhixi turned around immediately: "Where is it? Where is it?"
Sure enough, there was a bunch of wild strawberries lying on the ground not far away. The two of them immediately moved over. Zhuang Zhixi picked a bright red one and handed it to his wife. Mingmei didn't dislike it and ate it in one bite. Her eyes lit up and said, "It's very sweet!"
Zhuang Zhixi: "Let me try..."
Mingmei immediately covered her mouth and said, "What are you trying to taste? Just be quiet."
Zhuang Zhixi said innocently: "Look at you, you misunderstood me again, didn't you? When I said taste it, did I mean pick one to taste? What did you think of? Hey, it's not my wife, you are a little lustful now."
Mingmei pinched Zhuang Zhixi's waist directly. Zhuang Zhixi: "Ah!!!"
Mingmei slapped him: "Scream, scream, scream, what are you screaming for? What if my parents misunderstand?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "What's the misunderstanding?"
He winked and jokingly said, "What else can I do with you here?"
Mingmei's misunderstanding refers to the kind of misunderstanding that involves "encountering wild beasts in the mountains and being in danger."
But it is obvious that Zhuang Zhixi had another misunderstanding, which was outrageous.
After a lot of chasing and fighting, the two finally picked the strawberries, wrapped them in leaves and put them in the backpack. In this season, besides strawberries, there were only wild cherries and wild jujubes. The young couple searched for a while and found the wild jujubes.
Mingmei looked at the half-full basket of dates and said happily, "This is really good. Who in the city would have thought that there are so many wild fruits in the suburbs? If someone really knew, many people would definitely go up the mountain."
Zhuang Zhixi laughed: "Do you think we are all so free? If it weren't for the fishing here, ask mom if she would come here just to pick wild fruits."
Mingmei thought about it and realized that it was true. Their family had a bicycle. If they didn't have a bicycle, they would have to take the bus to the outskirts of the city, and a round trip would cost them 20 cents. Wild fruits couldn't be eaten, so they might not be willing to come.
Of course there may be some wild rabbits and pheasants on the mountain, but you have to be able to encounter and catch them, right? So, it's not that they are lucky, but everyone is not stupid, and they also consider the actual situation. There will be gains when going up the mountain, but not necessarily that much, so it's really not suitable.
Mingmei: "Come on, let's continue. Mom can always catch rabbits every time she comes here. She's a rabbit killer. I don't believe we can't do it!"
Zhuang Zhixi laughed and said, "Then let's keep working hard."
The two looked at each other and smiled. Mingmei said, "I...oh my god!!!"
Mingmei was talking to Zhuang Zhixi when she suddenly said something. She took a quick step forward and ran out. Zhuang Zhixi was a bit slower than Mingmei, but he also quickly caught up. At this time, both of them saw that there really was a hare.
You say, this rabbit is also a stupid rabbit. People were chatting about them, but they fell into the trap.
Two people were chasing the rabbit very quickly, one in front and one behind. Mingmei was very quick. She ran two steps, stopped, picked up a stone, aimed and threw it... whoosh!
The rabbit stumbled and was hit. Mingmei rushed over quickly and grabbed the rabbit's ears: "I told you to run!"
She turned around proudly and said boastfully, "Look, I'm awesome, right?"
Zhuang Zhixi laughed and said seriously, "Awesome, my wife!"
The rabbit was still kicking its legs. Zhuang Zhixi poked the rabbit's head and said, "This rabbit's escape technique is not up to par."
Mingmei laughed and said, "It's obviously me who is so powerful. No matter how fast it runs, it can't escape my clutches."
Zhuang Zhixi burst out laughing and said, "So you are the big devil?"
Mingmei raised her chin coquettishly and said, "Is it not possible?"
She scratched her head and said, "The title of Big Devil doesn't sound very nice. Please change it for me."
Zhuang Zhixi laughed and said, "You are like a fairy. What devil king or not? It's all nonsense from your man, me."
He saw a willow tree nearby, pulled down a few willow branches, and tied up the rabbit. He said, "Let's go and have a look. Now that we have caught the rabbit, we must also catch its parents and its children so that the family can be reunited."
Mingmei was overjoyed: "Why are you so mean."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Look at what you said, I'm doing this for everyone to have a good meal, right?"
Mingmei: "Yo yo yo."
"Do you think my parents-in-law have gained anything?" Mingmei looked at their good fighting results and asked Zhuang Zhixi curiously. Zhuang Zhixi had always been with Mingmei, so he naturally didn't know, but that didn't stop them from speculating.
Zhuang Zhixi: "It's hard to say. It's obvious to the naked eye that my mother's fishing skills are not very good. I don't know if she can think of other ways. For example, in winter, breaking the ice with branches and stirring it deeply is really unique. It seems strange at first glance, but it actually makes sense. But now that the weather is warm and the ice has melted, the old method can't be used. If we have a fisherman in our family, it may be easier to catch them all. But unfortunately, we are not one of them."
Mingmei tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "I think my mother-in-law is OK."
Her mother-in-law was reborn, she had seen so much, she must have many ideas, even if fishing didn't work, she would definitely be able to think of other ways. If she can't think of it today, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow!
So Mingmei felt that her mother-in-law would be able to catch a fish one day.
She said: "I believe in my mother-in-law."
Zhuang Zhixi glared at her and sighed, "You worship my mother so much, I am jealous. I am your most beloved sweetheart."
"Ugh!" Mingmei got goose bumps all over her body and kept shaking.
She said, "Well... you are really good."
Zhuang Zhixi said confidently: "Am I not your sweetheart?"
This person can say strange things in a serious manner, making you feel that you are making a fuss about nothing. As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed. Zhuang Zhixi has such a strong heart and thick skin.
She was shocked and asked, "Did you talk like this when you were a child? Did your mother really not beat you?"
Zhuang Zhixi asked back: "Why did you hit me? I'm so cute. When I was a kid, I was the most handsome boy on our street. At that time, it was not like now. There was still a custom. Many people asked me to press the bed when they got married. Look at how good I am, don't you think? I can earn candy for myself by pressing the bed."
Mingmei couldn't help laughing again. She poked Zhuang Zhixi's face and said, "You are so shameless."
Zhuang Zhixi smiled: "I earn money through labor, what do you know..."
“Just cheeky.”
"No?"
"You have!"
The young couple walked around bickering, but they were actually quite happy. After all, they already had a rabbit in their hands and half a basket of fruit. They had made a good harvest. Even if they went back now, they would not be left with nothing, so they were quite happy, laughing and joking...
It must be said that the mother understands her son, and the son also understands his mother to some extent.
Zhuang Zhixi guessed that his mother was not very good at fishing, which was absolutely true. She fished for a long time but nothing happened. However, Zhuang Laonian had caught six or seven fish and threw them into the basket on the shore. He was very excited.
One was gloomy and dark, the other was cheerful and cheerful.
What a stark contrast.
Zhuang Laonian tested the depth of the water and found a place to cast his net. Although he had been a worker since he was young and didn't know how to fish, wasn't there a chef named Li in their yard?
Chef Li is a man who has lived up to his profession. As long as it is related to food, he can figure it out. He often asks everyone for help. A group of men go to the river to cast nets and catch fish, and then distribute the work according to the work.
But it only lasted a few years and then they were short of manpower.
Lao Su and Lao Zhou both left, and apart from them, there were a few others who were unwilling to get involved. In the end, only Chef Li, him, and Lao Bai were left. The three of them were unable to do it, and later the policy changed, so they didn't dare to go fishing together in the river. After all, the management in the city was more strict.
It's been a long time and I don't remember it very well. But, even though I don't remember it, when I try to find the feel of it, I feel like that feeling is back.
Look, he was more effective than his wife, and caught several fish in a row. He was very happy and said, "Hey, hey, hey, here it comes, here it comes, my wife, this must be a big fish, come and help me, this fish is a bit heavy!"
When Zhao Guihua heard this, she didn't care about her strong sense of loss, she ran over quickly, took off her shoes, rolled up her pants, and rushed into the pond. Zhuang Laonian said: "Hurry!"
The two of them pulled the fishing net together and walked upward with all their strength, "One, two, come on, one, two!"
"We must have caught something big."
The happiest thing is that I have gained something.
"rush!"
The two men finally pulled the fishing net up, and just seeing this, the old couple burst into laughter.
Zhuang Laonian’er almost let go of his hand: “What the hell…hahahahahaha!”
Zhao Guihua: "What are you doing? Hold on tight! Come on! Catch it and laugh!"
She couldn't hold it back either! But she couldn't lose heart, catching the fish was not the end, pulling it to shore was the end! The two of them held back their laughter and quickly pulled the fishing net to shore. Zhao Guihua was so tired that she sat on the ground, pointing at the fishing net and laughing. She was so happy that she said, "How can there be such a thing!"
Zhuang Laonian also laughed very hard, but he still stepped forward, picked up a stone and smashed it twice, separating the "three guys"!
Three guys?
Yes, three guys! They didn't just catch some water plants or rocks, they actually caught a big fish. This big fish was quite big, almost one meter long. God knows how such a big fish could be in this small pond.
Maybe it's true that no one has discovered them here and they are growing wildly.
However, such a big fish usually does not run to shallow water. The reason why this fish was so foolish as to get into Zhuang Laonian's net was entirely because of its bad luck. It was actually attacked!
What a poor fish!
I don’t know how this big fish attracted the two turtles, oh no, soft-shelled turtles.
The two turtles even played military tactics with it, one on each side, biting it tightly and proudly. I guess the big fish was hurt by the bite and fled, but it crashed into Zhuang Laonian's fishing net. It was a good deal for them.
Zhao Guihua pointed at the three guys and laughed. Zhuang Laonian also laughed, but he still hit the old turtle with a stone. The old turtle loosened its mouth in pain and retracted into its shell. Zhuang Laonian did not pull the fishing net open, and they were still trapped. There was nothing they could do. Their basket really couldn't hold this big fish. As for the two turtles, that would not work either. Once thrown in, they would become very aggressive and eat the small fish.
Although the fish was small, it was also their harvest! Zhuang Lao Nian'er was always introverted, but at this time he showed off a little bit and said, "Look, although I am old, I am still very good, right? I am not saying that even if Chef Li is good at fishing, he has never caught such a big fish."
Zhao Guihua smiled and nodded, saying, "You are amazing."
Zhuang Laonian's face immediately turned red. Although he was old, he could still be shy.
Zhuang Laonian coughed, then immediately stood up and became even more motivated. He said, "Then I'll continue fishing!"
Zhao Guihua shook her head: "Forget it, there are still fish in the net."
Her eyes fell on Zhuang Laonian's legs and saw that his legs and feet were red from the cold. Although his trouser legs were rolled up, they were still not too tight. This is how it is when fishing with a net. You have to be careful.
Although the weather is warm now, it is still not warm enough to go swimming.
She said decisively: "Don't go down, come and fish. I'll pick up some branches and make a fire, you can warm yourself by the fire, otherwise you will catch a cold."
Zhuang Laonian hesitated for a long time and said "oh". Even so, he was happy in his heart. His old lady just cared about him, hehe!
Zhao Guihua's feet were also wet, so she simply walked barefoot without wearing shoes. Zhuang Laonian hurriedly said, "Be careful of the stones and dead branches on the ground."
Zhao Guihua: "Do I need you to tell me this? I am the most cautious person."
She picked up some branches nearby. It hadn't rained recently, so the branches were very dry. Zhao Guihua was busy picking up a pile of firewood. Seeing that there were quite a few dandelions, she simply squatted down and started digging them. There was no such "good stuff" in their compound. Although they were wild vegetables, many people still dug them.
If you dig out a little bit of edible stuff, you can save money on buying groceries. You should always save where you can.
Now is the time when the dandelions are very tender, and Zhao Guihua is working hard.
Laonian Zhuang looked back and saw the old woman squatting on the ground digging hard. He smiled and shook his head. At this moment, his fishing rod moved slightly. He immediately reeled in the rod. Oh wow, good!
Although it is not a big fish, it is still pretty good.
It has to be said that Zhuang Laonian's talent in fishing is ten thousand times better than that of his wife Zhao Guihua.
He raised his mouth corners proudly, with an arrogant smile. This person is always happy when he has something to gain. There are four major things in life: eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. You see, eating is the first one.
Zhuang Laonian shouted: "Osmanthus, I caught it."
When Zhao Guihua heard this, she curled her lips and said, "Don't brag to me. Don't you know that I am suffering because I didn't get any results?"
Zhuang Laonian hurriedly said, "If you can't fish, you can do something else. I also like to eat motherwort, and I like the ones you dig even more. Besides, fishing is nothing, but cooking fish is amazing. Even Chef Li can't compare to your cooking skills."
Zhao Guihua spat and said, "How come you have learned to be so smooth-talking? You only know how to say nice things."
That was what she said, but it was obvious that she liked to hear it, for she stopped, stood up, and said, "I'll light the fire first, and you warm your feet."
The firewood was very dry and it was easy to light. At this time, Zhao Guihua repeatedly felt that she was a very smart person. She had to bring all the things with her when she went out. In the morning, when she was waiting for Zhuang Zhixi and his wife, she had nothing to do and sorted out the bag. She packed a little bit of what she should and shouldn't take. Now it seems that it was the right thing to do.
It's best to bring matches like these with you.
The fire was lit, and Zhao Guihua said, "Let's warm up first. We are fishing. Today's catch is enough. Even if there is nothing else, it is enough to cover the cost. Alas, I don't know how the third brother and his wife are doing."
Zhao Guihua nodded in agreement and said, "That's right. Although Mingmei has some skills, we are in the mountains and this is not a fight. It won't be useful to take pictures. We will definitely get more."
"Of course!"
Both of them were trying to keep warm... "Gurgle!"
Zhuang Laonian's stomach growled. He rubbed it and said, "I'm hungry. I got hungry too quickly."
Zhao Guihua: "How about that? It's at least noon now."
They left home early in the morning, and it took them quite some time to ride their bikes here, and Wang Yu had been gone for a while. Even if you don't feel it when you're busy, time actually passes very fast in this world.
"Why haven't these two come back yet? They really don't know how to be hungry."
Zhao Guihua only brought a few steamed bread with her when she went up the mountain this time. It wasn't that she was stingy, but no matter what vegetables she brought, they would get cold on the mountain. She originally wanted to make roujiamo, but she had been eating better recently, and the flour at home was not enough.
He hadn't bought new ones yet, so he decided to just use the steamed bread. It would be enough for one meal. But even so, Zhao Guihua came here with the idea of gaining something. Look, she even brought some salt.
Zhao Guihua: "There's a fire, let's grill some fish."
She smiled proudly and said, "I brought salt."
Although Zhuang Laonian felt a little distressed, he never had any opinions of his own and trusted Zhao Guihua unconditionally. His wife was the head of the family, so naturally what she said was the truth.
"Okay! I'll take care of it."
Zhuang Laonian said: "Let's pick some smaller fish for grilling. They are easier to grill. If it's a big fish, I guess the outside will be burnt before the inside is cooked."
Zhao Guihua: "Okay."
Zhuang Laonian caught a few small fish first, which was just right.
"Should we come now or wait for the third brother to come back?"
Zhao Guihua: "Now, eat first after you are done. You don't have to wait for them. They will come back when they are hungry. We don't have to go together. I guess they didn't get much, so they didn't come back. They must be holding back until they get some gains before coming back."
Zhuang Laonian thought about it and said, "That makes sense."
At this time, the young couple who they said had no gains...had a lot of gains.
These old couple guessed wrong.
The story begins with a rabbit. The rabbit was tied up and thrown into a backpack. The young couple immediately went to look for its brothers and sisters. It turned out that rabbits are those shameless little animals. They reproduce the fastest. If this had happened in the 1960s, they would have been eaten to extinction.
There was a food shortage at that time. People even ate leaves, not to mention rabbits. There were also many people living in the suburbs.
But it's obviously not the case in recent years. People don't come to the mountains outside the city very often. Rabbits are so popular that they reproduce like crazy. They are everywhere in the mountains. It's not easy to find a pheasant, but there are still a lot of rabbits.
However, they run fast and are not easy to catch. Mingmei caught them smoothly because she was quick and accurate. Zhao Guihua was so embarrassed and embarrassed the first time she caught it.
The two of them searched attentively for a while, but couldn't find it.
However, when the two stopped looking and started picking mugwort, they suddenly saw a nest of rabbits.
There are five or six rabbits in a litter.
I don't know if they were relatives of the tied-up rabbit, but the young couple jumped up immediately. The rabbits reacted quickly and three of them escaped quickly. However, they still caught three.
Mingmei held one rabbit ear in each hand and pinched them proudly.
Zhuang Zhixi only caught one, but he was very happy. He couldn't compete with martial arts masters.
The first step to progress in life is to have a harvest! The young couple quickly tied up the three rabbits, and there were four more rabbits in the backpack.
The two of them were so proud that they were about to float in the air. Mingmei was even more excited and said, "Why didn't I find such a good place earlier? This is absolutely my Feng Shui treasure land."
Zhuang Zhixi also smiled brightly and said, "Then we will come often in the future."
Mingmei nodded heavily, but that was enough, and then she said, "Well, we can't come here too often. If we kill them all, there will be no more. We need sustainable development, so we have to leave room for them to grow."
"Hey, you know a lot?"
Mingmei smiled: "Of course."
She said coquettishly: "Although I don't often walk in the wild, it's not that I haven't studied."
Zhuang Zhixi: “That’s right.”
He laughed, and when he had laughed enough, he rubbed his stomach and said, "Hey, I'm a little hungry. Shall we go back?"
He said: "By the way, let's take a look at what my parents have achieved. I guess they definitely haven't achieved as much as we have, because I have the most capable Lady Ming."
Mingmei: "Okay, let's go."
Zhuang Zhixi: "OK."
The young couple walked back together. Although they had run around a few times while chasing the rabbit, Mingmei still remembered the way back clearly. It showed that this person was really good at remembering things.
Zhuang Zhixi: "You are really amazing. The trees here are all similar. How can you remember them?"
Mingmei: "Why can't I remember this? Of course I can't remember them all because they are the same. You should find the differences between them. When I was a kid, I went out with my dad. At that time, my dad was driving and he taught me how to look at the road. I... hey hey hey!"
"What's wrong?" Zhuang Zhixi thought she saw something again, but Mingmei said, "Something scratched my pants."
Zhuang Zhixi looked down and said, "Oh, it's a small branch."
He bent down to pull it apart, his eyes fell on the side, and said with a smile: "Have you seen this kind of plant? Look at the fruit of this thing..."
He twisted it, and the seemingly firm little fruits turned into tiny black dots, much smaller than grape seeds. Zhuang Zhixi: "When we were young, we used this to catch sparrows. Sparrows like to eat this seed the most. We would scatter it on the open ground, and then set up a net. When the sparrows came down to eat, we would pull the sticks away at once, and the little sparrows would be trapped. Then we would have roasted sparrows to eat. At that time, my brother and sister often sneaked to get this to eat. I knew they were going to catch sparrows, so I followed them desperately, which made them mad... Hahahaha! I was young, and I couldn't help them and they had to eat more. My brother and sister didn't like me anymore."
Mingmei said angrily: "Hutou doesn't really look like a big brother. Hutou really loves his sister."
"My brother and sister were very good to me and loved me, but life back then was nothing like it is now. It was not long after liberation and it was really difficult."
Mingmei thought about it and said, "I'm fine then. My family has always been well off."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Of course, being a driver is very economical."
He looked at it and said, "Hey. I'll get some of this back. You can't find this in the city anymore. I'll get some back for Hu Tou and his friends to catch sparrows to eat. That way, we can contribute to the eradication of the four pests, right?"
Mingmei: "Okay."
She rubbed her stomach and said, "Actually, I'm a little hungry. Let's go back quickly after we're done."
Zhuang Zhixi immediately said: "Forget it, let's go back directly."
Mingmei's eyes widened. "Forget it, forget it. I still want to see how to play Mahjong online. Hurry up."
Zhuang Zhixi laughed, and the two of them picked the fruits together. They found a big tree leaf to pack the fruits, and picked four bags before stopping. Zhuang Zhixi: "Going back?"
"good!"
The young couple each carried a small backpack and walked back together. "Shall we sing a song?"
"What are you singing? I have no strength left. I need to eat... Shit!" Mingmei couldn't help but swear! She was a civilized young woman who seldom swore. This was really... too shocking. Who would have thought that while she was walking, a pheasant rushed straight towards Mingmei and was about to hit her. At the critical moment, Zhuang Zhixi grabbed it.
This pheasant is easier to catch than a hare!
He held the pheasant down, still a little dazed: "Oh, no..."
He wiped his face and said, "Wife, you said you were lucky. I thought you were joking at first, but now it seems that you were being conservative. How can this be called good luck? This is simply extremely lucky. You were walking peacefully, but a wild chicken bumped into you? Isn't this too outrageous?"
Mingmei: “Ah, this…”
Although she is indeed very lucky, it is obvious that she is bragging!
This... bragging has become reality? This wild chicken, she just walked into the trap? Mingmei scratched her hair and said, "I've heard of waiting for the rabbit to come to me before, but I didn't expect that I could do it myself?"
Is she confused such a gifted girl? This, this, this... After Mingmei was briefly, she saw a rabbit running over, "Fuck!" The couple were both shocked! The matter was so outrageous that the couple did not catch the wild rabbit. The little rabbit quickly passed by the couple and ran away... The two of them did not react to catch the rabbit.
"No!" Zhuang Zhixi reacted quickly at this time. His expression suddenly became serious. He said, "No, they came here not because you are lucky, but because they are running for their lives."
Mingmei suddenly realized that this was indeed the case and said, "Yes, they are running for their lives."
Just as she finished her words, she heard a rustling sound. Mingmei looked up diagonally and almost fainted from fright: "Ahhhhhhhhh!!!"
She burst into a deafening scream!
Zhuang Zhixi followed her line of sight and screamed in the same tone: "Ahhhhh!!!"
A large snake was wrapped around a tree not far away, spitting out its entrails and staring at them with a fierce look. Its expression was extremely terrifying. Zhuang Zhixi: "Run!"
Mingmei: "Ah! Ahh! Good!"
At this time, no matter whether you have martial arts skills or not, just run away!
This thing is so scary!
Mingmei hated these creeping things the most. She felt disgusted and horrified just by looking at them. The couple ran away quickly. Perhaps the snake noticed their shock, but it caught up with them.
The couple ran in front, and it chased them from behind, spitting out the core greedily.
Mingmei: “Aaaaaah!”
Zhuang Zhixi: “Ahhhh!”
Mingmei: "Why does it always chase us? Damn it!"
Zhuang Zhixi: "Who knows! It must be a bully. Seeing that we are scared, it wants to bully us!"
Mortals don't understand the heart of a big snake!
Anyway, we just had to run for our lives! Zhao Guihua and Zhuang Laonian had just grilled two fish when they vaguely heard two people's heart-wrenching roars coming from the forest. This really scared Zhao Guihua, and she immediately stood up and took out a kitchen knife.
Zhuang Laonian: ...You are indeed very well prepared.
Zhao Guihua said seriously: "Something happened to them."
"Walk!"
The two of them quickly ran towards the direction of the young couple's voices, and just happened to meet them head-on. Mingmei said, "Mom, run! There's a big snake chasing us!"
Zhao Guihua: “Fuck!”
This is really scary. How can this snake be so big? It looks like it can eat people!
“Run!”
She brandished a kitchen knife: "I'll intercept, you guys run!"
As a mother, she can always unleash her power when she sees her children in danger. Although Zhao Guihua is always mean to them, when she saw her son and daughter-in-law being chased by a big snake, she said without thinking: "I brought a kitchen knife, I'll stop them!"
Even though she was running for her life, Mingmei was stunned for a moment.
Zhuang Zhixi immediately said, "Mom, hurry up. Dad, run with my mom first, quickly!"
He certainly wouldn't let his parents put themselves in danger. If something really happened, there were four people at the scene, and he would rather be the one in trouble: "All of you leave! Give me the kitchen knife!"
If his mother can stop it, then of course he can too!
"you..."
At this moment, no one expected that Mingmei would snatch the kitchen knife from Zhao Guihua in an instant, turn around and throw it at the big snake. The kitchen knife flew directly towards the big snake like a flying knife, and with a click, it pierced directly into the snake's body, and the big snake fell to the ground instantly.
Hit the snake at its most vulnerable part, not even an inch off! The people who were running for their lives in panic suddenly quieted down. Zhuang Zhixi: "This..."
Mingmei panted, "My aim is better than yours."
She was about to go forward, but Zhao Guihua stopped her and said, "Don't go over there. Generally speaking, snakes are very resilient. Sometimes even after a snake is dead, its head can bite people out of reflex."
She was an old lady with no knowledge, and she didn't understand what this meant, but she had heard a lot of this kind of common sense. And there were indeed such cases. A dead head could still attack people. Although it was just like a last gasp, they didn't dare to gamble.
Zhuang Zhixi nodded: "Mom is right."
Several people just stared at the snake, and the snake seemed to be dead.
"Seems to be alright?"
Zhao Guihua: "This bastard is very cunning. I'm observing him."
Mingmei: "Since you're afraid that snakes can still attack people, why not smash their heads with rocks? After it's smashed, it won't be able to attack people anymore, right?"
Ah, this... makes a lot of sense.
Zhuang Zhixi: "I'll do it!"
The distance was not far, and Zhuang Zhixi was not stupid enough to miss the target. As expected, the snake's head moved reflexively after the hit, but a few more stones were thrown at it, and soon, it was torn to pieces! Zhuang Zhixi put his hands on his hips and said, "Just tell me, just tell me how powerful my wife is. She can even deal with this thing. She is really amazing."
Mingmei patted her chest and bared her teeth: "This thing is really disgusting to look at."
She hates this kind of thing the most.
Zhuang Zhixi patted his wife's shoulder, hugged her and said, "Don't be afraid, think about it, even if it's powerful, it's no match for you, can't you defeat it in a few minutes? We are not afraid of anything, right?"
Mingmei breathed in and out and said, "Yeah."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Let's take it back, boil it into soup, and eat it! Let's see how arrogant it can be!"
Mingmei waved her hands frantically: "No!"
This time she reacted quickly: "I would rather die than eat this."
Zhao Guihua also spoke up, with disgust and determination: "I won't eat it even if you kill me!"
Zhuang Zhixi: “…”
He thought about it and nodded, "Indeed, this thing is disgusting just thinking about it, so let's not eat it. Besides, we don't know if it's poisonous or not. Even if it is poisonous, it doesn't matter, we can handle it, but who knows what this thing has eaten since it grew so big, and it might be running towards us to eat us. No, I can't think about it, the more I think about it, the more disgusting I feel."
He was the one who wanted to eat it, and he was also the one who despised it.
Zhuang Laonian: "..."
So among the four of us, am I the only one who doesn't feel disgusted?
However, he would definitely not go against his family, so he immediately said, "Since you don't want to eat it, then why don't you take it?"
"Why not?" They said in unison again.
Zhao Guihua, Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei, three people, six eyes looked at Zhuang Laonian, as if he were a fool, and they all said in unison: "Take it back and sell it!"
Well, we all thought of the same thing.
This kind of thing will be collected at the collection station! Zhuang Zhixi: "Don't take it to the collection station yet. Let me ask the doctor in our clinic to identify it and see if it is poisonous. If it is poisonous, it will be even better. We will send it to the hospital. Our clinic has a corresponding hospital. Don't think it is just meat. In fact, the snake gall and venom may be used by the hospital. If the hospital collects it, it will be more valuable than selling the snake meat. That's a profit."
He looked at the big snake in front of him and said, "I wonder if it is poisonous. If it is, that would be great!"
Those who don't understand will just think that non-toxic ones are better.
But as someone who knows a lot, Zhuang Zhixi knows deeply that this is poisonous, and that is what makes it valuable.
Others don't understand, don't know where to buy this stuff, but he does! Although their infirmary belongs to the machinery factory, the infirmary is not large in any aspect, so general medicines and medical supplies are not applied for separately. The superior arrangements to go to the corresponding hospital, which is the one where Bai Fendou and Zhou Qun live. Zhuang Zhixi is a young man in the infirmary, and he is usually busy with the back and forth connection.
He looks familiar! Zhuang Zhixi looked at the snake again, not as a snake that wanted to eat people, but as a golden ingot! This thing is valuable.
Although Zhuang Zhixi himself couldn't say exactly how much it was worth, he had a pretty good idea in his mind. This kind of thing was very rare, and rare medicines could be very valuable. He thought it was the same no matter what it was.
The less, the more valuable.
His eyes became more and more sticky, and his expression when looking at the big snake was full of "love".
Similarly, Mingmei also reacted at this time.
Mingmei's eyes lit up, she swallowed and asked, "Is this valuable?"
Zhuang Zhixi nodded: "Of course!"
The couple looked at each other, without any fear at all, and let out a barbell-like laugh - hehehehehehehe!
