She felt like she was going crazy. Was the third brother probably seriously ill? So much money was spent on building the house, but there are snakes everywhere. The key point is that this family doesn't seem to be afraid at all.
What did Li Xi say in her room before? Oh, we will have snake soup tomorrow. Is the little girl really brave or is their whole family abnormal?
Song didn't seem to be afraid either.
"Grandma, let's go back to the house and sleep."
Old Sun got angry, "Don't touch me, I won't go back!"
Li Xi pursed her lips in grievance and looked at Old Sun with an accusing look as if she was about to cry.
"Mom, what do you want? Why do you tell me what I did to make you uncomfortable and make a fuss about it? Why are you taking it out on the child?" Zhao Dashu couldn't bear to see his daughter suffer any injustice, even if it was fake.
"I...I...I just don't want to sleep now. I'm so scared that I don't know what I'm doing." The third son put on a disdainful face, and old Mrs. Sun immediately came to her senses. She hadn't had enough time to please their whole family, so how could she give them a hard time? She was getting old and confused.
He must have been scared by the snake.
"Didn't you say you wanted to sleep in Xiaoyu's room?"
"I... I'm not sleepy yet. It's so late, you should let the two children go back to bed first. I'm old and don't sleep much, so I want to take a walk in the yard."
The yard was big and had no roof, so she felt it was the safest place.
No one knows a mother better than her son. How could Zhao Dashu not know what his mother is thinking? Okay, you stay in the yard. There’s nothing you can do if she wants to torture him.
It’s hard to persuade her with kind words, so just let her be.
Zhao Dashu left two oil lamps for Old Sun. When Zhao Xiaoyu approached Old Sun, he sprinkled a little medicine powder on her clothes, and then pulled Li Xi back to the house.
They have to leave the stage temporarily, the home court belongs to the milk, they can't steal the show.
Old Mrs. Sun couldn't sleep, so she sat on a stool in the yard. She felt very upset and worried.
The third house is good in every way except that it is not safe. What should I do? She wanted to stay here and eat and drink for free, but... she was really afraid of snakes.
If I stay here, I will probably not sleep well every night, and it is even more impossible to go back to the old house at night and eat with him. Not to mention that she was still angry with the old man, even if they hadn't quarreled, if she dared to do such a thing, the old man would definitely beat her to death. It's too embarrassing.
Old Mrs. Sun felt very disappointed and didn't know what to choose.
I was thinking hard when I felt something under my feet...
She picked up the oil lamp and made eye contact with a snake that was struggling to crawl onto her body. The snake was playfully spitting out its tongue to greet her. Her expression suddenly changed, "Ah! Help!"
It comes again. Could it be that the old lady has hysteria? She jumps up and down and screams all night long.
She must be suffering from an intentional disorder, so the master didn't let them go to the backyard. He didn't want them to see the old lady's madness and wanted to save some face for the old lady.
I have to say that the servants in Zhao Dashu's family are all very imaginative.
Old Mrs. Sun didn't know how she managed to get through the night. As soon as the day broke, she refused the breakfast her son offered her, and with a tired face and huge dark circles under her eyes, she ran away dejectedly, holding her small bag, without looking back.
The third brother’s house is a den of snakes, she can’t stay there for a moment!
Before Zhao Dashu could even say goodbye to her, he disappeared.
"Girl, look at what your grandma is thinking about?"
"When disaster strikes, everyone flees."
Zhao Dashu: ...My daughter is very expressive and what she said was particularly apt.
"Hey, I'll go to the old house and give instructions."
"Well, we'll wait for you to come back for dinner." The whole family slept all night except for Li Xi who couldn't hold on any longer and was still catching up on sleep. But they didn't feel tired at all, instead they were very excited.
The big trouble is finally gone, it would be strange if they were not happy.
"Mom, why are you back at this time?" Zhao Dayong had just gotten up and was about to go to the field to pick vegetables when he saw his mother returning home in a panic with a bag in her arms. Isn’t she enjoying a good life at the third brother’s house?
"I'm coming back to live here, I'm coming back to live here!" He said this and trotted back to his room with his bag.
Zhao Dayong was confused. What was my mother doing? Had a fight with the third brother?
"Second brother."
"Third brother, what happened to mother?" After not seeing each other for a night, she looked visibly haggard and haggard.
Last night, when Dad found out that Mom went to the third brother's house, he praised her for her progress.
"A snake got into our house. It scared my mother so much that she sat there with her bag for most of the night and refused to stay at my house no matter what I said. Now she came back without even having breakfast. I couldn't stop her."
"No, how come there is a snake in your house?" Zhao Dayong grasped the key point.
"I live in the back hills, so it's inevitable that one or two of them crawl in sometimes."
What my third brother said seems to make some sense. There are indeed many insects and snakes in the back mountain.
What a pity. He was thinking that he could save one person’s food ration in the future, and by the way, I can give him some money from time to time.
Mother is too impatient and useless. It's just a snake. Just grab it and throw it into the pot and it becomes a meat dish.
After explaining everything clearly, Zhao Dashu did not stay because Zhao Dayong and his wife were in a hurry to pick vegetables and sell them and had no time to chat with him.
