report!The empress is on the way to farm, the lucky star shines brightly

Chapter 20 Hunting
Kapok has no objection to the compensation of 20 taels of silver, but he must not let others think that he is a soft cotton that can be bullied at will.

"Grandpa Wu, what if they come to harm me again?"

Wu Lizheng saw that Kapok meant to agree with this method of handling, so he glared at Mrs. Yu and the others and shouted sharply: "If they come to harm you again, I will be the first to spare them. I will even murder my own children and grandchildren. Such a vicious person is not worthy of staying." It’s in our Daluo village. It’s considered small to drive them out of the village, so I’ll work with you to turn them into prison.”

This is a very important thing to say. You must know that if people at this time do not have the blessing of a family, or live apart from the group life in the village, they will not be able to survive at all, and at this time, the village head decides everything in the village. Well, even if the village chief wants to sink Yu's family now, the government government will turn a blind eye to it.

Sure enough, the members of Laofeng's family flinched from Wu Lizheng's stare.

Kapok was generally satisfied, and agreed to Wu Lizheng's solution.

After Wu Lizheng forced Yu Shi to take the silver and hand it over to Mu Mian, the crowd dispersed.

After such a fuss, everyone was exhausted, only Mrs. Yu was very energetic, handing over 20 taels of silver was like her dead son, crying and yelling like mourning.

The Feng family was also very frustrated. Originally, they planned to sell the Erfang family to Mrs. Cai tonight, but they didn't realize their goal after tossing about this night. Remnant.

What a loss!
Kapok is different, this night not only made himself angry, but also earned 20 taels of silver in blood, which is really a double gain!Mu Mian didn't feel sleepy any more, and when everyone left, she politely said to Li Changyuan: "Brother Li, do you want me to have a supper?"

Li Changyuan is actually very tired. He hasn't slept well for several days. He went to Renhetang to buy medicine today, but the old doctor told him about the Feng family's medicine purchase. Feng Dashan has saved his life , he couldn't sit idly by, so he hurried back to the village.

I'm so tired now that I don't want to say more.

So, when he spoke, he came out with a bit of sleepiness: "No, you can eat by yourself."

Seeing Li Chang Yuan's indescribable sleepiness, Mu Mian didn't force her, and went to the kitchen by herself.

But 10 minutes later, Li Changyuan couldn't fall asleep.

In the past two days, he took advantage of Feng Dashan and the others to sleep in the main room, and naturally he did the same tonight.

But the kitchen and the main room were really too close, and the aroma from the kitchen entered the main room through the crack of the door, making him sleepless.

Li Chang Yuan felt uncomfortable all over, put on his coat and went to the kitchen.

Walking into the kitchen, what I saw was Kapok sitting on the fire bench with a large Haikou bowl, sipping noodles.

In the room filled with aroma, a large chopsticks of shiny, shiny, steaming hot noodles was sent into the mouth of Kapok.

Gudong, Gudong. A big mouthful of soup was swallowed by her.

Then I heard her sigh: "Ah--it's so delicious--"

It felt like eating some delicious food.

Li Chang Yuan was immediately hungry, and his stomach let out a grunt.

Seeing Mu Mian patted his stomach and looked over, he put his fist on his lips and gave a fake cough: "Well, you can eat noodles as you eat, can you lower your voice."

Suddenly disliked by Mu Mian, she rolled her eyes: "I'm starving. Besides, eating noodles is just like this. Do you understand the sense of ritual?" Although Mu Mian said so, he felt a little embarrassed. This room is not soundproof at all, she should have been arguing with others just now.

Although Li Changyuan was a little surprised at the appearance of the word "sense of ritual", he also understood the meaning of kapok, but he had to admit that seeing her eating noodles just now was really enjoyable and delicious, he sneered, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled: " What sense of ritual? It’s just fallacy.”

I thought this person was mature and stable, but now I see that he is actually quite naive, awkward and stubborn.Forget it, let him take the initiative to ask for labor again for the sake of venting his anger tonight.

Thinking about it, Kapok said: "Okay, okay, you are right! However, going to bed hungry is a life of suffering. Shall I make you a bowl of noodles? It's delicious."

Li Changyuan looked at Kapok with bright eyes and felt a little guilty, he turned his head away and said, "It's up to you."

Sauté the scallions and garlic in oil until fragrant, add mountain mushrooms and shredded pork and stir-fry to lock in the freshness, then add soy sauce, salt and sugar to enhance the flavor, add water to boil and add noodles, wait until the noodles are cooked until the color of the soup is absorbed, A bowl of clear soup and three fresh noodles is ready to serve.

Kapok brought the noodles to the main room, looking at the clear soup, the tender white noodles, and the mountain mushrooms cut with a flower knife and the tender green sunflowers spread on top, the ingredients are simple but tempting to move your fingers, Li Changyuan Pick up the chopsticks unconsciously.

"Wait a minute!" Mu Mian called to stop him, "Don't worry, wait for me to fry a poached egg."

Li Changyuan really wanted to say that I will eat the noodles first, so it won't prevent you from frying poached eggs.

But guests do as they please, he put down his chopsticks gracefully: "I'm not in a hurry."

"Yes, you are not in a hurry, I am in a hurry." Mu Mian said and ran to the kitchen.

Kapok's tone was like coaxing a child, which made Li Changyuan, who was sitting quietly waiting, stiffen slightly, and his handsome face smiled slightly.

After 1 minute, Kapok spread a perfectly shaped poached egg on the soup surface: "Perfect!"

She said to Li Chang Yuan contentedly: "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good after a while."

Li Chang Yuan glanced at her, then at the noodle soup, and started eating silently.

Kapok yawned and said, "I'm going to bed first, good night."

Li Chang Yuan spoke again: "I'm leaving tomorrow."

Mu Mian actually expected that he should be planning to leave, otherwise she would not have seen him for so long, she nodded to show that she knew.He took out the jade pendant from his bosom and hid it next to his body, and handed it to Li Changyuan: "Return the jade pendant to you."

But Li Chang Yuan refused: "No need, you put away the jade pendant first, someone will contact you after I leave."

Kapok is a straightforward person, and he resigned without hypocrisy. He said "take care" and left the main room.

On the second day, when Mu Mian woke up, Li Chang Yuan had already left. To Mu Mian, Li Chang Yuan was just a guest, so she didn't feel much about it.

But it's different for Feng Dashan and Gu Yueniang.

Li Changyuan left a letter similar to "Letter to Release His Wife", stating that he spent the night outside these days and did not tarnish Kapok's innocence, and now he cannot marry Kapok as his wife, and hope Feng Dashan and the others will forgive .

Gu Yueniang and Feng Dashan were very disappointed and sad, they were very satisfied with Li Changyuan, and more importantly, they felt sorry for Kapok.

Everyone in the village knows that Mu Mian is married, and now that she is gone, even if he and Mu Mian are not husband and wife, how can the name of this couple be easily erased?If Kapok wants to remarry in the future, who is willing to marry as the first marriage?
It's not easy to get married!

Gu Yueniang burst into tears on the spot. Although the atmosphere is open in this era, it is only relative. Which woman has an easy second marriage?

Her own marriage is the best example. No matter how much her husband cherishes her, her husband's family will always look down on her and even oppress and bully her. Now Kapok is going to follow her old path?

Gu Yueniang blamed herself too much.

Speaking of self-blame, Feng Dashan was even more so. He was the one who rescued this person, and he also brought up the happy event. Now that he patted his ass and left, how would he face Kapok?

Mu Mian looked at Feng Dashan who didn't say a word: "Uncle, I still want to thank you. If you didn't make me happy, I would probably be reincarnated. How can I stand in front of you alive and talk about marriage with you?" What about getting married? What about a second marriage? Don't worry about it, I won't get married in the future, and I will live with you when I make money. "

"Bah! What nonsense are you talking about? How can there be a woman who doesn't marry?" Gu Yueniang cried, "Besides, if you don't marry, no one loves you, loves you and takes good care of you. How can I rest assured when I go with your uncle? ?”

After hearing this, Mu Mian was very moved. She called Gu Yueniang "Mother" for the first time, then took her hand and said, "Don't worry, even if I don't marry, don't I still have younger brothers and sisters? Jun Bao Junyi and the others will take care of me when they grow up, besides, if I earn more money in the future, it is not impossible to adopt a child."

"How can this be the same?" Gu Yueniang frowned, "No, when your uncle's leg is healed and the family has income, I will ask someone to match you."

Kapok couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't, don't! I'm only 14 years old, and I want to stay at home for a few more years! Besides, do I look so unmarried?"

It's a pity that Gu Yueniang and Feng Dashan couldn't be happy even though Kapok was eloquent.Until the family life got better later, Gu Yueniang and Feng Dashan didn't sigh anymore, and excitedly recruited a son-in-law, of course, this is a later story.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade people, Kapok simply didn't persuade him.

Putting on the basket and holding Feng Dashan's bow, he went up the mountain.

Yesterday, I learned some hunting skills from Fengda Mountain Pass, and Kapok planned to try it out, and by the way, collected some mountain products that could be sold to increase my luck.

There are five peaks in Daluo Mountain. The two peaks near the village are called Outer Mountain, Dongshan and Xishan respectively. Most people dare not go to the inner three peaks. Only a fierce bandit like Feng Changqing who has nothing to eat dares to go to the inner mountain. walk around.

Kapok went around Dongshan, and it was quite rewarding. In autumn, there are many wild fruits on the mountain. Kapok picked a lot of thorny fruit, which is our modern wild strawberry. This wild strawberry is very sweet, and it can be sold as strawberry jam. .

In addition to prickly pears, the most common mushrooms on the mountain are mountain mushrooms. Once picked, these mushrooms can grow another crop. They are fresh and cost-free. Villagers like to stock up on these mountain mushrooms and many wild vegetables, and dry them and store them for the winter. Best time to eat.

Kapok is not interested in wild mushrooms. She is more curious about the traps made by hunters on the mountain. Yesterday I learned the theory, and today I just observe it on the spot. After careful study, Kapok made a few small traps by herself. Let alone, It really made her catch some unlucky eggs, two pheasants and a gray rabbit.

Kapok is very satisfied with such a harvest after going up the mountain, and plans to go home.

But at this moment, a shrill female voice came from a deep and dense jungle on the mountain. The voice made Kapok's scalp numb.

It's so miserable!
