Chapter 4 Distress
The warmth from the palm of his hand made Dabao's heart tremble and disrupted the boy's thoughts.
"You guys eat first, there are still other dishes that are not ready."
Xu Miaomiao peeled one and put it in Dabao's hand, then continued to peel for the other two children, talking to herself.
"Why don't you eat?"
Xu Miaomiao looked at Dabao who was standing there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.
Erbao next to him directly handed over the bird egg in his hand: "Erbao doesn't want to eat it, mother will eat it."
Xu Miaomiao smiled and touched Erbao's head: "Mom is not hungry, you eat."
Erbao nodded and divided the bird eggs between himself and his younger brother, half each.
No future!
Dabao muttered in his heart: Are a few bird eggs going to make them forget that this woman pushed them down?
"Is Xiaobao delicious?"
Xu Miaomiao asked, but the only answer she got was silence.
The shy child shrank his neck and nodded slightly.
This child doesn't seem to have a vocal cord problem, but perhaps a psychological problem. Xu Miaomiao frowned and looked at Xiaobao worriedly.
Seeing this, Erbao quickly explained: "Don't be angry, Mom, Xiaobao didn't mean to be silent."
Xu Miaomiao touched Erbao's head and said, "Don't be afraid. Mother is not angry. She is just a little worried about Xiaobao. You guys take a rest. I will go to cook."
Mother was actually worried about her. Xiaobao felt a little sweet in her heart, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
As he spoke, Xu Miaomiao walked outside to deal with the rabbit.
Relying on her previous experience in dissecting biological organisms, she was quite adept at handling the rabbit.
When Song Weiwei saw the blood all over the floor, she was shocked and shouted, "Xu Miaomiao, what are you doing? Where did this rabbit come from?"
Following the blood trail to the kitchen, Song Weiwei was stunned by the scene before her.
The sister-in-law was holding the rabbit in one hand and a knife in the other, and she was skinning and deboning the rabbit without any hesitation.
“You, you, you…”
Song Weiwei was so shocked that she was speechless.
Xu Miaomiao glanced at her and said, "I shot the rabbit. Don't scream. It will attract the children and it will be bad if they see it."
"How can you be so cruel? The rabbit is so cute, how can you kill it?"
"No, you can't have stolen the rabbit! Don't let anyone come to our house later. I can't do anything if you get beaten."
Song Weiwei mocked Xu Miaomiao mercilessly.
Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao looked at the young lady in front of her with a frown on her face, "Yes, yes, of course it's cute. If you really think it was stolen, don't eat it. I'm going to make it spicy later."
"I don't eat anything of unknown origin!"
Song Weiwei no longer paid attention to Xu Miaomiao, replied with words that did not match her heart, and left.
When the rabbit was served on the table, it was sizzling with red oil, looking very tempting.
The three children looked at the rabbit and drooled, but no one dared to pick up the chopsticks first.
"Hurry up and eat!" Xu Miaomiao, sweating profusely, watched as no one was eating the food.
"Mother, you...you eat."
As soon as I thought about it, I knew what was going on and took a bite.
"Eat quickly, if you don't eat, I will really be angry!"
When the three children heard this, they got angry and perhaps because they were afraid of being beaten, they immediately started to eat the rabbit.
“It’s delicious.”
"Mom's cooking is so delicious!"
Xiaobao also nodded and looked at Xu Miaomiao with a grin showing his big teeth.
They had never eaten such delicious food before. Before, it was good enough to have food at home, let alone meat.
As expected, they are just children. They forget what happened just now after a delicious meal.
Seeing how delicious the food was, Song Weiwei dejectedly went to get her own bowl and chopsticks. When she passed by Xu Miaomiao, she raised her head proudly and said, "What are you looking at? If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be like this. Eating two bites of your rabbit is giving you face."
Xu Miaomiao shook her head, smiled, and didn't argue with her.
After eating and drinking, the three children happily went outside to play in the mud.
Song Weiwei couldn't help but sigh as she looked at her eldest brother who was unconscious on the bed. She glanced at Xu Miaomiao with dissatisfaction: "If it weren't for you, my eldest brother wouldn't be unconscious, you evildoer."
Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao sat down in front of the bed and took his pulse.
"Xu Miaomiao, what are you doing?"
Don't worry that her brother won't die and will come to stab her again, Song Weiwei looked at Xu Miaomiao warily,
Xu Miaomiao frowned slightly, and the expression she looked at the man was a little more complicated than before.
The reason why Song Wu Shao became a vegetable was not because of her pushing him, but because of the explosion of the toxins that were accumulating in his body.
"He's been poisoned."
"What nonsense are you talking about! My brother was clearly killed by you."
When Song Weiwei heard this, she glared at Xu Miaomiao.
Xu Miaomiao was too lazy to explain to her, and immediately pulled open Song Wushao's collar, revealing a large area of snow-white skin.
Song Weiwei was so scared that she quickly covered her eyes: "You vicious woman, my brother is like that, and you still bully him. Even if you can't bear it, you have to wait until I get out."
Xu Miaomiao was speechless and glanced at Song Weiwei: "What are you thinking about? Take a look."
Looking in the direction, the originally snow-white chest turned black and red along the meridians, which was very frightening.
Song Weiwei's face immediately darkened, and her teeth gnashed, "What's going on?"
Xu Miaomiao said, "He must have eaten the Sorrowful Moon Grass by mistake."
I didn't see this in the original book. It only said that after Song Wu Shao woke up, his health became worse and worse, but because of his violent temperament, no one dared to doubt it.
"Mourning Moon Grass? Is it the grass with six leaves staring at a small white flower?"
Xu Miaomiao nodded.
Song Weiwei's heart was beating wildly in disbelief. She had met a Taoist priest at the market before, and he said that that thing could heal scars, so she brought it back and gave it to Song Wushao to eat!
"Why, do you know who poisoned me?"
Seeing Song Weiwei's changing expression, Xu Miaomiao asked.
Song Weiwei's expression changed again and again, and she blushed as she pushed the blame on me, Xu Miaomiao: "I, how should I know? I think it was you who did it. If it weren't for your robbery, my brother wouldn't have been poisoned and missed the imperial examination. I should be a well-fed and well-dressed young lady in the capital now. All this is your fault!"
After saying that, he turned and ran away with a crying voice.
"Oh." Staring at the woman's departing back, Xu Miaomiao seemed to be thinking about something.
Come to think of it, what Song Weiwei said was right. If she hadn't coveted Song Wushao's beauty and snatched him away unreasonably, and hadn't been worried that she was fat and ugly and not worthy of him, so she disfigured Song Wushao, there would have been no poisoning by the Sangyue Grass.
Xu Miaomiao sighed as she watched the figure running away, and stared at the man in front of her in silence.
The poisonous gas spread throughout the body, causing coma. It will take some time to fully treat it.
The medicinal herbs she had on hand were not enough, so Xu Miaomiao looked around the space while observing Song Wushao's situation.
It seems that I have to go into the mountains again.
After calling the child outside back and coaxing him to sleep and sending Song Weiwei away, Xu Miaomiao carried a basket on her back and prepared to go out.
The moment Xu Miaomiao left, a small shadow on the bed opened his eyes, and his dark eyes made it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
"There are tigers inside. If you go in, you will be eaten."
