Chapter 16: Snakes and Mandarin Ducks



The sun was scorching at noon, so Qian Xiaolan hurried home, locked the gate, washed her face, and went into the space to eat the extra food she had made yesterday.

In this kind of weather, it’s more comfortable to stay in a constant temperature space.

I had a good sleep after lunch and when I woke up there was still more than an hour before work started.

Waiting for work was too boring, so she left the space, put on her hat and went into the mountains again.

What she didn't expect was that this time when she went into the mountains, she just took a detour to avoid the sun and saw a pair of wild mandarin ducks.

Originally, she didn't care about any wild couples, but they should never have plotted against her during exercise.

Qian Xiaolan hid behind a big tree and listened to the conversation between two people in the bushes in front of her with an expressionless face.

After another set of actions, the woman pinched her throat and asked, "Brother Zhiming, are you really sure you can get Qian Xiaolan?"

Hearing this question, the man was very dissatisfied and slapped the woman's buttocks several times, causing her to exclaim repeatedly. Then he confidently said:

“Of course, Qian Xiaolan is just a little girl who knows nothing.

I helped her scold Wu Qiulan this morning and told her that someone was targeting her.

She must have a crush on me now, and when I tell her in a few days that I want to date her and become her son-in-law, she will not be able to refuse. "

Hearing this, Qian Xiaolan sneered again.

No wonder Chen Zhiming suddenly showed his affection to her in the morning. It turned out that this was his idea. Unfortunately, his wish was going to fail.

But who is that woman? Her voice sounds familiar and strange.

"Brother Zhiming, you won't ignore me after you catch Qian Xiaolan, right? You said you would take me back to the city in the future, don't forget it."

Chen Zhiming looked down at her skinny figure, feeling disgusted in his heart, but he said:

"Don't worry, I don't like Qian Xiaolan at all. I just want to stay at her house temporarily and borrow some money from her."

The woman was delighted, she put her arms around the man's neck and said coquettishly:

"Then you can't really have sex with her, otherwise, I'll make you pay!"

Next, the two started the next round of actions.

Qian Xiaolan didn't listen any more and left quietly.

She had already figured out who the woman was. She was surprised, but not extremely surprised.

But she didn't expect that Chen Zhiming, who had nothing to do with her, would get involved with her.

After walking some distance away from the two men, Qian Xiaolan looked down for something as she walked, and soon found it under a big tree.

She suppressed her nausea and touched the thing with a stick and put it into the space. Then she changed into a loose men's suit and returned to the place where the wild mandarin ducks were.

While the two were still immersed in it, Qian Xiaolan approached cautiously, then threw the slippery thing in the space at the two of them and quickly ran away.

Qian Xiaolan's aim was very good, and the snake's head fell exactly at the junction of the two people.

Suddenly a cold-blooded animal fell from the sky. Chen Zhiming and the woman couldn't help but scream. How could they care about who was bullying them?

Qian Xiaolan listened to the voice behind her, raised her eyebrows, turned around and ran back.

It's a waste not to watch the excitement that you create yourself.

Just now, Chen Zhiming was frightened and rolled off the woman's body. Although the rat snake was non-venomous, it was extremely aggressive and bit Chen Zhiming's third leg as soon as it opened its mouth.

"Ah——" a shrill cry resounded through the sky.

Qian Xiaolan was so scared that she shook her body. When she looked over again, she saw the woman comforting Chen Zhiming by saying that the snake was not poisonous, while she pinched the rat snake by the waist with one hand and smashed it to death with a stone.

And then, huh?

Qian Xiaolan gasped. Wow! No wonder Wang Jinhua was the heroine in the original book. She actually used her mouth to relieve Chen Zhiming's pain.

No wonder she, whose fiancé died just after the engagement and who was despised by her future in-laws and her own family, was able to turn things around in the end. She is so daring.

With Wang Jinhua's comfort, Chen Zhiming's screams gradually calmed down, and finally turned into muffled groans.

Unfortunately, the wound has been broken and I am powerless to do anything about it.

Qian Xiaolan clicked her tongue twice, used a branch to hook Chen Zhiming's clothes away, turned around and ran away.

She always felt that she had lost a lot today. She gave them a snake for nothing and also promoted their relationship.

I'm so angry.

The only thing that comforted her was probably that Chen Zhiming was really injured and probably didn't have time to be with her in the next few days.

Qian Xiaolan shook the clothes in her hands, her eyes rolled around, and she had an idea in her mind.

He temporarily put the clothes into the space and walked around the three traps.

What surprised her was that the harvest was very good this time. She not only picked up two rabbits, but also a wild goat.

He threw all the things into the space and went down the mountain to work with brisk steps.

In the afternoon, Chen Zhiming indeed took sick leave and did not come to work.

Later, Qian Xiaolan heard a few aunts whispering about how Chen Zhiming was bitten by a water snake while bathing in a stream, and his clothes were taken away by some wild beast. It was so pitiful, and no one knew if he could still use that thing in the future.

Qian Xiaolan almost couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard this.

In order to avoid being seen as unsympathetic, Qian Xiaolan found a corner to work.

Because I was always thinking about the wild goat, I felt that the afternoon passed very slowly.

Finally, it was time to get off work. Qian Xiaolan heard a message from the mall in her mind. She ran home in a hurry without even bothering to wash her hands and feet.

She didn't even notice that Qian Rongsheng, who was not far away, had glanced at her several times that afternoon.

After returning home and locking the gate, Qian Xiaolan stood in the yard and looked into the space. Knowing that it was not urgent news, she washed her hands and feet before going in.

The message was sent by a new customer that day. His friend had escaped danger, and he sent the message to express his gratitude and to exchange five quilts and medicine for heatstroke.

It sounds a bit contradictory, but it is normal if you are in the mountains.

Qian Xiaolan was not too curious and just asked him what he was trading this time.

The other party didn't waste any time and directly put the items on the trading list.

“Is this wild boar okay?”

Qian Xiaolan blinked, replied with a yes, and immediately summoned Wenxuan online.

"Wenxuan, come quickly, there's a big guy."

Wenxuan seemed to be very free every day. As soon as she sent him a message, he replied immediately.

"What big guy?"

"A 400-pound wild boar, do you want it?"

Wenxuan immediately replied: "Yes, yes, yes. I'll prepare what you need to exchange."

Qian Xiaolan smiled and said to him, "We need ten quilts weighing six kilograms, a box of self-heating rice, and a gas stove."

As for the medicine, there was no need to buy any more. Wenxuan had already put all the medicines she asked him to buy on the shelves this morning.

Wenxuan didn't even calculate how much money he could make from this order and went to prepare things happily.

In fact, that Yuan Datou coin made him earn tens of thousands of dollars, but now all these are not worth mentioning.

After telling the new customer to come back for the transaction in two hours, she left the space and went to the mule shed to find Qian Rongsheng.
