Chapter 64



When Yang Haiyan got out of the carriage, she saw Niu Da coming to greet her: "Meet Madam."

Yang Haiyan said: "No need to be polite, Uncle Hong said that you take good care of the crops, thank you for your hard work."

Niu Da did not dare to take credit: "This is what I should do." But he was also happy to be recognized by the host, "Madam, please come in, it's hot outside."

Isn't the sixth month of the lunar calendar a hot season?

Entering the manor, it was full of vitality. Because of the scorching sun, Niu Da even built a straw shed in some places where the crops were. It must be said that although Niu Da did not understand some crops, his many years of planting experience also allowed him to slowly figure out the planting methods of those unfamiliar crops such as broccoli and cauliflower.

Niu Da invited Yang Haiyan to sit down: "Madam, please sit down for a while. I will go find my wife to serve you."

Yang Haiyan said: "Okay, I will go around and take a look." She had taken a carriage all the way, and because this place is close to the town, she was not tired.

Niu Da: "Yes."

Niu Da went to find his wife, and Yang Haiyan began to walk around the manor under the guidance of Uncle Hong. The manor transformed from five acres of land has a very large area, which is more than 3,000 square meters.

The fruit tree seedlings are still small and not very noticeable. They have only grown for two months, so it is normal that they are not noticeable. At first glance, the best-looking crop is potatoes. Potatoes can be harvested at the end of the month, so the situation is naturally good.

In addition to potatoes, corn and broccoli also grew well. However, Yang Haiyan was most interested in watermelons: "Let's go and have a look at the watermelons." Half an acre of watermelons, I wonder how many there will be after the harvest.

Uncle Hong: "The watermelons are here."

When they arrived at the watermelon field, Yang Haiyan was surprised: "The watermelons have already borne fruit." Although they were small, only the size of a fist, they really borne fruit.

Uncle Hong said: "They just borne fruit in the past two days. Although I don't know what kind of fruit it is, Niu Da said that according to his observation and experience, this fruit called watermelon will probably be ripe in mid-July."

Yang Haiyan nodded. It will be ripe in mid-July, and there will probably be no watermelons by the end of August. Moreover, watermelons are not long-lasting. One and a half months is enough. The next time you want to eat them openly, you have to wait until next year.

"Madam..." Niu Da came and brought his wife with him.

Yang Haiyan said, "Let's go to the pig pen."

Niu Dapo Niang said, "I'll lead the way, Madam."

Niu Dapo Niu cleaned the pig pen, chicken pen, and duck pen very cleanly. When raising poultry, Yang Haiyan asked Uncle Hong to remind her that the sanitation inside must be cleaned thoroughly. Although she had never raised poultry, she knew from reading many novels that a clean environment is also very important for poultry.

Niu Dapo Niang: "By the beginning of July, I'm afraid those dozen hens will be able to lay eggs." Hens usually start laying eggs after three months of raising, while ducks need four months. Of the 20 chickens and 20 ducks, there were 15 hens and 15 ducks, and the remaining 5 roosters and 5 ducks were for breeding, because only fertilized eggs can hatch eggs.

Yang Haiyan said, "That's great. When the hens can lay eggs, send them to the snack shop in the town every three days."

Mrs. Niu

said, "Yes." With that, everyone prepared to go to see other crops.

Yang Haiyan was walking in the middle. Just as she was walking past, she suddenly felt a pain in her foot. She screamed, "Ah..." The sound was scary enough to kill people.

Chen Dashi asked hurriedly, "Madam, what happened to you?"

Yang Haiyan said, "I seem to have been bitten by something."

Niu Da stepped forward and grabbed the snake, "Don't be afraid, madam, this is a golden snake, it's not poisonous."

Yang Haiyan took a glance at the green snake and felt cold all over. She couldn't stay still for a moment, but she didn't dare to move: "Are you really okay?"

Niu Da was about to speak when Qin Fang rushed in on horseback. In his haste, the horse trampled on a lot of crops. As soon as Qin Fang saw Yang Haiyan, he got off his horse and asked anxiously: "What's wrong? I just heard you screaming, why do you look so bad?"

Yang Haiyan saw that it was Qin Fang, and rushed over: "I was bitten by a snake." She buried herself in his arms, "Look quickly, is it a poisonous snake? I'm so scared."

Not only was her voice trembling, but her whole body was shaking.

Qin Fang hugged her, glanced at the snake in Niu Da's hand and said: "It's okay, it's not poisonous." People like him who grew up in the fields and mountains in the countryside can naturally tell whether the snake is poisonous or not at a glance. Moreover, even if it is a poisonous snake, he can catch it with his bare hands.

Yang Haiyan still didn't dare to look, she grabbed Qin Fang's clothes: "My feet are weak." She knew that there were snakes in summer, especially in the countryside, because the snakes would crawl out because of the mountains, but she didn't think that her luck was so bad that she would encounter a snake.

Yang Haiyan swore that she would never come here again. No, when she comes here in the future, she must bring Qin Fang with her, unless he carries her on his back, anyway, she will not step into here with her own two feet.

Thinking of the soft and dangerous snake, she felt uncomfortable all over.

Qin Fang picked her up: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." His wife seemed to be able to plan and strategize on weekdays, but she didn't expect that she was so afraid of snakes.

It was the first time in Yang Haiyan's life that she was carried like a princess, but she didn't feel any surprise, excitement, or shyness. She still felt cold all over, as if a snake was crawling on her feet. "Let's go back. I don't want to stay here."

Qin Fang: "...Okay."

Yang Haiyan thought of something: "Niu Da, put some anti-snake powder here. There can't be snakes in the manor. There must not be any."

Niu Da didn't expect that people in the city were so timid, but this snake was also an accident. Before, he would walk around the manor and the crops several times every day, but he didn't find it. "Don't worry, Madam. There will be no snakes when you come again this time."

Yang Haiyan: "I don't think I will come again in a few years."

Qin Fang laughed when he heard it.

Yang Haiyan was very unconvinced: "What are you laughing at?"

Qin Fang said: "You are really like a child."

Yang Haiyan felt that this was a look down on her, she defended: "No woman is not afraid of snakes."

Qin Fang wanted to say that women in their country are basically not afraid of snakes, but they still have the desire to survive, so it's okay to just think about it in your heart. "I'm wrong."

Yang Haiyan raised her chin: "Yeah." That's more like it.

Qin Fang looked at her little look and could only shake his head.

When they got on the carriage, Qin Fang put her down, took off her shoes, and then took off her socks she made herself. He saw two obvious bite marks on her white and tender ankles, and there was bleeding at the bite marks. Qin Fang bent down, opened his mouth and took Yang Haiyan's ankle, then sucked hard.

Yang Haiyan was stunned at first, then said: "Don't suck, what are you doing?"

Qin Fang sucked out a mouthful of blood and spit it out, then explained: "Although snakes are not poisonous, they can still cause infection after being bitten, because snakes are dirty and not clean." According to modern common sense, it is possible to get a bacterial infection.

Yang Haiyan said: "Then you can't suck it with your mouth, what if you get infected?" At this point, Yang Haiyan said again, "Don't suck it, go rinse your mouth, I have a way." Soap can disinfect and sterilize. In the absence of alcohol and other disinfectants, using soap liquid to disinfect and sterilize is the most direct way. Yang Haiyan said to Nanny Lian outside, "Nanny Lian, wet the soap and give me some soap liquid."

Nanny Lian: "Here it is." She immediately took out the kettle she carried with her, poured a little water on the soap, and then rubbed it into bubbles, "Madam.

Yang Haiyan applied the soap liquid on her feet and rubbed it for a long time before washing it off.

Qin Fang looked worried: "Is this feasible?"

Yang Haiyan said: "Let's go to the clinic to have a look."

Soon, the carriage arrived at the clinic, and Qin Fang carried her directly out of the carriage. One of her feet was exposed outside, which aroused the curiosity of passers-by.

"I'm afraid she was bitten by something."

"It should be a snake bite at this time."

"Doctor Wang... Doctor Wang..." Qin Fang carried Yang Haiyan to the inner hall and saw Doctor Wang there, "Doctor Wang, Zhu Jing was bitten by a snake, please take a look. "

Qin Fang is a regular customer of Doctor Wang, because he often prepares medicinal baths for Qin Fang, twice a year, so the old acquaintances became friends. When Doctor Wang heard that Yang Haiyan was bitten by a snake, he hurried over to see: "It's not poisonous."

Qin Fang said: "It's a golden snake."

Doctor Wang: "The wound doesn't seem to be infected. Has it been treated beforehand? I'll prescribe two more doses of medicine for you to take for two days. There shouldn't be any big problems."

Qin Fang was relieved to hear him say this: "Thank you, Doctor Wang."

At this time, Yang Haiyan said: "Doctor Wang, my husband sucked blood from my wound. Do you need to prescribe two doses of medicine as well?"

Doctor Wang: "...Okay. "Why suck blood if it's not poisonous?

Qin Fang wanted to say that he didn't need it, but he didn't say it to reassure his wife.

Back at Qianfu's house, Qin Fang carried Yang Haiyan all the way from getting off the carriage to the main courtyard. It was almost time for lunch, and Qin Siya and Qin Shoucheng were also preparing to have lunch, so they were waiting in the main courtyard, and then they saw their eldest brother coming back with his eldest sister-in-law.

Qin Shoucheng was twelve years old after all, and he had been to school, so he knew not to look at inappropriate things, so he turned his back quickly. But Qin Siya saw that her eldest sister-in-law was not wearing shoes, and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong with sister-in-law? Is your foot injured?"

Qin Shoucheng didn't care about not looking at inappropriate things when he heard Qin Siya's question, and turned around worriedly.

Yang Haiyan said: "It's not a problem, she was bitten by a snake when she went to the countryside. "

Qin Siya heard: "Such a bad snake, we have to kill it and make snake soup."

Yang Haiyan was frightened by Qin Siya's strong taste: "..." She never wanted to eat snake soup in her life. But she didn't know that in the countryside, snakes are also meat. Everyone saw it, and those who were capable caught and ate it. Even children of seven or eight years old would chase and catch snakes.

Qin Fang put Yang Haiyan on the wooden couch and brought her slippers. When he just squatted down, he heard Yang Haiyan ask: "What did you hide in your arms? I wanted to ask just now, and it rubbed my forehead so much. "
