Chapter 388 Going to the Border Town to Gather Intelligence
Ling Yun retreated repeatedly, fearing that he would be entangled by this woman.
Zhao Zhenzhu looked unwilling to give up and took out a black pancake and pushed it forward.
Ling Yun's eyes turned cold, and he raised his hand to make an exception and hit the woman.
Su Nuan rode Feixue back and looked at the two of them with surprise in her eyes.
"What are you doing?"
Ling Yun felt that he could not clear himself from the blame even if he jumped into the Yellow River. He angrily said, "This woman is mentally ill. I said no, but she insisted on giving it to me."
Su Nuan took a look at the pitch-black pancake and said, "What is this? Can you eat charcoal?"
Zhao Zhenzhu felt insulted. She gritted her teeth and said, "This is a wild vegetable egg pancake. It can only be baked without oil."
Su Nuan said disdainfully, "A dog wouldn't even eat this. How can you have the nerve to give it to someone else?"
"I see. You want to poison Ling Yun to death, right? But what good will it do if you poison him to death?"
Zhao Zhenzhu couldn't hold back her expression any longer and cried, "Brother Yun, look at her. I prepared this for you."
Su Nuan scoffed, "Oh my! This guy is so shameless! He gave away some biscuits that even dogs wouldn't eat, and he still expects people to cry with gratitude."
"I really don't know where you get your confidence from. Do you think you're such a beauty that everyone loves you and can make fish sink to the bottom of their waters and geese fall to the ground?"
Ling Yun immediately added, "What's so beautiful about it? It's just that ugly people are more likely to do evil."
Zhao Zhenzhu could no longer bear the two people's singing in unison, so she covered her face and ran away crying.
Ling Yun looked at Su Nuan nervously, "Sister-in-law, there's nothing wrong between me and her."
Su Nuan glanced sideways, "I don't care what you have with her. I just saw you here and said that those branches are the water source I made. Don't destroy them."
Ling Yun nodded immediately, "Okay, I understand."
Su Nuan nodded, patted Feixue, and Feixue flew away with her.
Ling Yun patted his chest. It seemed that his sister-in-law didn't give him the cold shoulder today. Was it because he rejected Zhao Zhenzhu that made her happy?
Su Nuan had no idea that Ling Yun was having so much inner drama, so she went to the forest to look for a pheasant's nest.
The pheasants in the space are kept in captivity, without any coops, and their eggs are laid randomly.
So we need to find a few pheasant nests to hatch the chicks, which can also be regarded as evidence to make them think that the pheasant eggs were found outside.
When she returned with a basket of pheasant eggs and a pile of chicken coops, the old lady frowned at her.
Su Nuan was startled. "Grandma, shouldn't I take the eggs out of the chicken coop?"
The old lady said, "It must have taken a lot of effort to find so many at once. Pheasant eggs will die if they are kept out of temperature for too long."
Su Nuan was stunned. She didn't understand this. The knowledge given by the space spirit did not include artificial incubation.
Xue said, "Let them rest for now. Keep the ones that have regained their temperature, and cook the ones that have not yet reached their temperature."
The old lady nodded, "Yeah, that's fine."
Su Nuan touched her nose. Anyway, the things were retrieved, and the other things had nothing to do with her.
Tuan Tuan looked at the pheasant eggs and said, "Sister-in-law, where are the pheasants?"
Su Nuan smiled and said, "I haven't caught any yet. I'll try to catch some in the summer."
Xue said, "Time flies. I wonder if it's hot here in May. In the capital, you can wear light clothing in May."
Su Nuan recalled that it would not rain in May and the sun in the sky was scorching hot.
She said, "It might be hot, we'll know when we get there."
The weather now still requires wearing a padded jacket, so no one thinks it will be hot in May and no one has prepared any single clothes.
Thinking of the single clothes, Su Nuan asked, "Mom, how many single clothes do we have?"
Xue said, "I've combined two single garments into one cotton-padded jacket. If you don't have any more clothes, just take them apart."
Su Nuan nodded. She didn’t have any requirements for clothes, but she was obsessed with food.
"Okay, I'll go check out the fields."
The crops in the fields are growing well. If the weather is normal in the fall, there will definitely be a bumper harvest.
Unfortunately, the world is so unforgiving. Su Nuan stood at the edge of the field and said, "Why don't we wait until autumn to sprinkle some river water on the crops to ripen them? Otherwise, it would be a shame if they were all eaten by locusts."
The space spirit said, "That's fine. Currently, there is no particularly effective way to eliminate locusts."
Su Nuan sighed, "Well, the poison incense I made last time to smoke rats hasn't been used yet, but it can still resist a little, right?"
The space spirit sighed, "In fact, ultrasound can also drive away those locusts."
Su Nuan was silent for a moment and shook her head. "A natural disaster is a natural disaster. We shouldn't interfere too much."
The space spirit was confused. "What? Haven't you been thinking about how to solve the natural disaster? Why are you saying this now? I don't know what you are going to do."
Su Nuan laughed, "You're just being hypocritical. On the one hand, you want to eliminate the natural disaster, and on the other hand, you want to use it to control people's hearts."
The space spirit spread his hands and said, "You humans are so complicated. I won't play with you anymore."
Su Nuan glanced sideways, "Then who are you playing with?"
The space spirit quickly returned to the space, not wanting to waste brain cells on this matter.
Su Nuan touched her chin and muttered to herself, "You're really hypocritical. We'll talk about it later. Locusts are not scary. What's scary is the summer plague."
"We haven't found what caused the plague yet, which is difficult to deal with."
Su Nuan glanced at the fields, then circled aimlessly in the sky with Feixue.
She looked towards the border town of Beixue Country in the distance. She didn't know what had happened there, and all the boats on the river had disappeared.
Su Nuan had an idea and asked Feixue to take her to the north gate of the border town.
She disguised herself and carried two baskets of wild vegetables into the city. There was no one guarding the city gate.
After entering the city, she found a street to put down the basket and began to tie up the wild vegetables with green grass.
An old lady came over and asked, "How much are you selling these wild vegetables for?"
Su Nuan said nothing and raised two fingers.
The old lady said disdainfully, "A bunch weighs a jin? Twenty wen for it, that's too expensive. How about two bunches for thirty wen?"
Su Nuan nodded.
The old lady counted out thirty coins and handed them to Su Nuan, then picked up two bunches of large wild vegetables and took them away.
Su Nuan looked at the thirty coins and sighed, "People here are quite wealthy. A bunch of wild vegetables weighing almost half a pound can actually be sold for thirty coins."
At this time, the little beggar behind her said: "Dumb, you are selling it too cheaply. Every household has no vegetables to eat now. You can sell two for fifty coins and people will buy them."
Su Nuan looked back at him and said hoarsely, "Thank you."
There was a little beggar who was about ten years old. When he saw Su Nuan could talk, he came close to her and asked, "Are you from the mountains?"
Su Nuan nodded, "It's on the other side of the mountain. I sell it to buy medicine."
The little beggar sighed, "Buy medicine? What medicine? Don't you mountain people know about herbs? Why don't you pick them yourself?"
Su Nuan thought for a moment and said, "There are no lotus seeds or lilies on the mountain."
The little beggar suddenly realized, "I see, I can help you steal the lotus seeds, and you can buy the lilies at the medicine store."
Su Nuan suppressed her laughter and asked, "How much?"
