The matter was settled, and everyone finished their meal and prepared to go to work, but as soon as they went out, they found that it had become cloudy outside, and it looked like it was going to rain heavily.

"Hurry up and pack your things in, you must be watered by the rain. Second, don't go catch shrimp in the afternoon, it will rain heavily. Jiang Wanbai commanded.

After she finished instructing, everyone hurriedly got busy, collecting things, covering things, busy with their heads to the sky and feet to the ground, these are all the fruits of their labor, how can they be drenched in the rain.

There was a panic, and just as they were cleaning up, a gust of wind blew and raindrops crackled down, which made everyone happy.

The rain was very rapid and dense, and after a while, water began to drip on the eaves, and after a while, the dripping water turned into flowing water, like a rain curtain.

"It's been a few days since it's rained so much!" Jiang Wanbai said. Forget about the previous days, only in the memories of Mrs. Jiang, she didn't feel anything at all, but this time, it should be the first heavy rain after she crossed over.

"No, the crops are lacking rain now, and it's just right now, otherwise if the crops are ripe in a few days, it will be a disaster." Tian Lao Er said.

Tian Laosan frowned, "This wind is so strong, I don't know if it will blow the crops down." ”

As soon as he said this, there was silence around him, and it seemed that everyone was worried about this issue.

"No, this rain will come quickly, and it will definitely go quickly, just wait, it will be over in a while." Jiang Wanbai comforted everyone, and after speaking, she said as if she remembered something, "By the way, you are all here, if anyone goes to see if their house is leaking."

I heard that no one lived in this house for two or three years. ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly went back to their rooms to check, it was raining so heavily, if the house leaked, wouldn't they have to go to the soup at night? However, fortunately, when Tian Liangdong built this house, he used good materials, and the house has been left for so long, and there is no rain leakage.

Hearing everyone's reply, Jiang Wanbai breathed a sigh of relief, now the house at home is not rich, and the house leak happened to rain overnight, which is too embarrassing, fortunately......

After checking, everyone had nothing to do, Jiang Wanbai asked everyone to go back to rest, from the morning to now, everyone has not been idle, now is a good opportunity.

When everyone dispersed, Jiang Wanbai lay in front of the window, looking at the hazy rain curtain outside, but she was a little stunned. I don't know if it's raining in modern times, and her parents, who don't know what they're doing now, whether they're looking out the window like this, whether they're thinking about her as much as she thinks about them.

I really don't know how she crossed over to this old lady, and now she has never heard of this Li Dynasty, which is simply depressing.

If she had traveled through a dynasty in history, maybe she could have left some information in a specific place, waiting for her parents to find out, but now, she really didn't even think about it.

Forget it, life is so wonderful, since she can pass through it now, maybe something magical will happen in the future, and what she can do now is to live her current life.

Leaving from the window, Jiang Wanbai decided to sleep well, rainy days, sleeping days, listening to the sound of rain or something, it is simply the most wonderful thing in the world.

With a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, Jiang Wanbai fell into a deep sleep, and when she woke up again, it was already half dark, but the rain outside was still falling, but it turned from heavy rain to light rain.

"Mother, this rain is not small, I'm afraid the lake will rise." After dinner, Tian Lao Er looked at the rain outside and said worriedly.

Water and fire are ruthless, Jiang Wanbai heard him say this, and immediately became vigilant, don't have any accidents for a little money, "I think this year's shrimp catch is almost the same, keep some, and there will be a lot of small shrimp next year." Moreover, after the rain, the lake is definitely slippery, and it is easy to get out of danger if you are not careful.

I mean, that's it for this year's shrimp paste, don't you think? Jiang Wanbai pondered for a while and asked.

The shrimp paste they make now, if it is sold as agreed with Tian Liangdong, can be sold for a long time, and there is no need to work so hard.

Tian Lao Er also nodded when he heard this, in fact, farmers know the importance of moderation better than anyone else, so this matter, in two days, even if Jiang Wanbai doesn't mention it, he will say it.

"Then tomorrow we will finish the shrimp paste, and the day after tomorrow, we will go to Beijing." Jiang Wanbai made a decision.

The next morning, when Jiang Wanbai opened her eyes, what she saw was a bright and cloudless scene. It turned out that the rain didn't know when it would stop.

After the rain, the sky is clear, and there is a lot of vitality everywhere, Jiang Wanbai got up especially early today, and she felt extremely happy.

But when she walked out of the room briskly, came to the atrium, and was about to cross the threshold and step into the courtyard, her heart suddenly tightened.

On the bluestone in front of the door, what is that thing covered in yellow scales and the thickness of a baby's arm!

Snake, snake, such a big snake, Jiang Wanbai's leg was retracted with a slur, "Second, third......"

Jiang Wanbai shouted twice, and then she didn't dare to shout again, because the snake had already discovered her, and at this time it was spitting out the snake core, looking at her with fierce eyes.

Jiang Wanbai was afraid that the snake would pounce on her, so she didn't dare to move again, but stared at the snake uncontrollably, staring at its golden eyes.

I don't know if it's because she's too nervous or too focused, Jiang Wanbai can even see the vertical pupils in the golden eyes of the snake opposite, golden and long, slender and long, which makes people inexplicably scared.

What to do? Jiang Wanbai was a little blind, should she run or stay put.

By the way, she remembered, as if someone said that when you meet a snake, you have to see whether it is coiled or standing, if it is coiled, it means that it is still safe, at this time just walk away quietly.

But if it's standing, it means that it's already feeling the danger, and you'd better not act rashly, or it will attack you.

Like grasping a life-saving straw, Jiang Wanbai hurriedly looked towards the snake, only to see its body lying straight on the bluestone, and its head was raised, which made her a little unsure, just raising her head is considered standing, who will sue her.

I can't judge, so what to do now, Jiang Wanbai racked her brains and thought.

Finally, she remembered that she seemed to have watched a survival program, in which it was said that snakes have weak eyesight and are not sensitive to stationary objects, so after encountering snakes, people can slowly take out towels or clothes and throw them to attract the attention of snakes, or directly throw their clothes over, cover it, and then run away.

And when running, don't run straight, but run in a zigzag pattern.

Jiang Wanbai quietly glanced at the door a few steps away from her, swallowed a mouthful of spit, she felt that maybe she shouldn't need to run by "zigzag" now, she just needs to run a few steps, run to the house, and close the door again, everything should be fine.

Yes, that's it! Jiang Wanbai thought about it, and began to look at the side and body to see if there were any clothes that could be taken off or not. But this look, she secretly complained, the weather was hot in summer, and she wore the outside in addition to the small clothes inside, if she took it off......

She didn't have anything, but she was afraid that if she was seen by others, the picture was too beautiful for her to imagine.

was anxiously scratching her ears and cheeks, suddenly, she saw the purse hanging on her waist, and her eyes lit up, there are a lot of copper plates in this purse, if you throw this thing, the snake will definitely be attracted!

Just do it, Jiang Wanbai continued to stare at the snake, while holding her breath, slowly untying the purse, the action couldn't be more slow, for fear of alarming the snake.

"Mother, you call me." Just when Jiang Wanbai's spirit was highly concentrated, there was a sudden sound behind her, and she almost jumped up in fright.

Now, she didn't care about untying the purse anymore, and she didn't care about looking at the snake anymore, so she ran backwards with a swish. That speed, what is called moving like a crazy rabbit, just look at this time she knows.

After running two steps, she saw Tian Lao Er standing there looking at her with a surprised expression, and she hurriedly said, "There's a snake there." ”

Tian Lao Er seemed to be stunned for a moment, but he was not too scared, but calmly glanced at the door, and then said to Jiang Wanbai with some joy, "Mother, this is a good sign." ”

Jiang Wanbai had already arrived at the door at this time, ready to close the door at any time, but seeing that Tian Lao Er was so calm, and compared to her own scared look, she was a little embarrassed in an instant.

Fortunately, she didn't take off her clothes just now, and fortunately, the scene just now was not seen, otherwise she would have been laughed at and her big teeth would have been laughed at. Forcing herself to calm down, Jiang Wanbai asked, "What's the good sign?" ”

Tian Lao Er looked like he was asked, and pointed to the snake in front of the door, "The golden snake welcomes the door, which is a good sign." "As for why it's a good sign, it's that everyone says so, and the custom is just like that, if you really want him to say one, two, three, four, five, where did he say it.

At this time, Tian Laosan, Tian Laosi and others also came out, and when they saw the snake, they were also a little happy. They had only heard of this before, but today, they actually saw it, and they saw it at home, so how could they not be happy.

"Mother, is our family going to get rich?" Zhao looked at the snake and smiled from ear to ear, looking at what she meant, it seemed that he wanted to make an offering table and offer the snake up.

"Mother, I made a wish to the gods yesterday, didn't I ......" Wang didn't know when he came out, looking at the snake, his excited lips trembled a little.

Yes, it must have been Heaven that promised her to give her a child, so the waiter was sent. Thinking like this, before Wang's words were finished, she knelt down with a puff, tears flowing, many years of wishes, once fulfilled, that taste, how can ordinary people understand.

Is it that exaggerated? Isn't it just a snake, banning superstition is really deadly, Jiang Wanbai complained in her heart while moving out, now that there are so many people, she is not afraid that this snake will hurt her.

"Is this snake poisonous?" She asked.

"It's not poisonous." Tian Lao Er hurriedly said, "Mother, this is a golden snake." He thought the same as Wang, this snake must have come to give them a child, Jiang Wanbai asked, if he touched the snake fairy, it would be bad.

It's good if it's not poisonous, Jiang Wanbai breathed a sigh of relief, stood aside and swaggered at the snake, and the snake was watched by so many people, and there was no sense of being afraid.

Shaking its head, after it found that there was nothing abnormal, it actually swaggered down in front of everyone.

Even, when it found that a part of its body was blocked by the shadows of Tian Laosan and others, it moved its body until its body was completely exposed to the sun, and then it was comfortable lying there and no longer moving.

This is a snake, this is obviously the uncle, it's just the same as the cat she used to raise.

However, it is like this, Jiang Wanbai is not afraid of it at all, because according to her previous experience in raising cats, this snake uncle probably doesn't care about her at all.

Looking at this snake carefully, Jiang Wanbai found that the appearance of this snake was actually good.

The scales of its body were made of gold, shining in the sun, and even brighter than its scales were its eyes, which seemed to reflect anything in the world, but nothing could enter its eyes.

Sure enough, it is a masterpiece of nature, Jiang Wanbai sighed.

"Wang, Wang." Black Bean didn't know when he ran out and started barking at the snake.

The snake seemed to hear the cry of the black bean, its pupils moved, and it glanced at the black bean, and the frightened black bean immediately stopped crying, but it only stopped for a moment, and the black bean began to bark again, but its voice was very urgent, obviously, it was still very afraid of this snake.

But the snake didn't seem to be afraid of black beans at all, and after looking at it twice, he withdrew his gaze in disgust and continued to sunbathe.

Abandon? Jiang Wanbai felt incredible for her thoughts, she actually saw disgust in the eyes of a snake, and she was also drunk! However, this snake is not afraid of people at all, either it has become a sperm, or it has never been chased and beaten by anyone, but it can be seen from the side that the people here are superstitious about the customs of the golden snake.

"What about this snake? You can't let it stay here forever. Jiang Wanbai asked.

In fact, she now probably guessed the reason why this snake appeared here, it rained heavily yesterday, this snake must have been wet, and the yard of the Tian family is land, and it is wet everywhere, only the bluestone in front of the threshold has been dried by the sun, and it has become a good place for this snake to bask in the sun.

As for the so-called golden snake welcoming the door, Jiang Wanbai didn't believe it too much.

"This ......" Tian Lao Er and the others didn't know what to do, they had never encountered this kind of thing before, "Otherwise, I'll ask the third uncle?" ”

Ask the third uncle? Isn't that going to have a ritual or something?

Jiang Wanbai looked at the Wang family who was kneeling there on the side, and shook his head. She didn't want to keep the snake at home, otherwise she would go to bed later, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she would think that there was a snake somewhere in the room, and she didn't have nightmares.

If she can kill this snake and stew a pot of snake soup or something, Jiang Wanbai is still very interested, but looking at Wang's meaning, if she really does this, she will probably have to fall into a heart disease, and if she has no children in the future, she may be able to blame her, saying that it is all because she killed this snake, and she doesn't want to be resented inexplicably.

"Don't go, wait until you go, I guess the snake will be gone early." Jiang Wanbai stopped Tian Lao Er, and then said, "Let's get this snake out, as for where to get it, just get it to our field." ”

The Tian family's land was two or three miles away from home, and at the outskirts of the village, Jiang Wanbai Jue, if she put this snake there, she could barely accept it.

"Put it in our field?" Tian Laosan was happy to hear this, what he was most concerned about every day was the land at home, if he could let the snake fairy bless and bless his land, it would be great.

I don't want gold to grow in the ground, but I want it to grow food like other people's land.

"Mother." When Wang heard this, he was a little sad, and shouted Jiang Wanbai with a little pleading.

"It's the same in our land as it is in ours." Regarding this matter, Jiang Wanbai did not discuss it at all.

The Wang family immediately burst into tears, and even Tian Lao Er was a little anxious.

"Third child, you put this snake in our field." Jiang Wanbai decided to strike first and instructed Tian Laosan.

"Hey, mother." Tian Laosan agreed, and hurriedly found a wooden stick, a wooden barrel, and with the wooden stick, he picked the snake into the barrel, and then he quickly closed the lid of the barrel to ensure that the snake would not climb out, and then walked out with the barrel.

As soon as the black bean saw that the snake was put into the barrel, he barked at the barrel, and when Tian Laosan left with the barrel, it stood at the door and barked for a long time, until it could no longer see the barrel, then it spread a few small short legs, ran back to the yard, and wagged its tail at everyone, as if it was asking for credit.

But at this time, everyone was still immersed in the love of the snake being taken away, and no one paid attention to it, but Jiang Wanbai hugged it all at once, "Black Bean, I'll make you something delicious in a while." ”

As she spoke, Jiang Wanbai touched the head of the black bean, which was fluffy and hot, much better than the snake. She decided that in the future, she must raise black beans to be strong, so that even a qiē cow, ghost, snake and god would not dare to enter their house.

Waiting until Tian Laosan came back, the Tian family officially started to eat breakfast, according to Jiang Wanbai's instructions, the Wang family boiled all the eggs in the family today, exactly one per person.

But having said that, in fact, Wang and the others didn't eat those eggs at all, and gave them all to the children or Jiang Wanbai.

However, Jiang Wanbai knew that one egg a day was enough for nutrition, so she didn't ask for the extra egg, but put it on the table.

The Tian family except Jiang Wanbai, there are six adults and five children, and now Jiang Wanbai doesn't want extra eggs, so after each child has two eggs, there is one more, and now, the egg is placed alone in the center of the table, and it is very conspicuous.

"Mother." Tian Chengan was the youngest, so he looked at the egg with a blank eye and called Zhang.

Zhang was a little embarrassed, and said unhappily: "Cheng'an, how does my mother usually teach you, you have to be humble to your brother." No one else has spoken, how can you ask for it? ”

Tian Chengan was told a meal, lowered his head and began to eat with red circles in his eyes, and no longer looked at the egg.

Tian Chengyu glanced at Zhang's family, then took out one from his egg and handed it to Tian Chengan, "Little Wu, I'll give this to you." ”

Tian Chengan's eyes turned even redder, but he saw that the egg didn't move, as if he was hesitating to take the egg.

Zhang said to Tian Chengyu: "Cheng'an has two eggs, it's enough to eat, he is still young and ignorant, you are not helping him, but harming him."

He cried this time and got what he wanted, then next time, he will ask for it, and even intensify it, at that time, what will you do? "Zhang's family is worthy of being from a scholar's family, and he has a set of truths.

Tian Chengyu was a little impatient, everyone understood the truth, but he couldn't bear the favor, but Zhang was his mother, he didn't know what to say, so he just peeled the egg in his hand and put it in Tian Chengan's bowl to show his attitude.

Tian Chengyu's silent confrontation made Zhang's face a little pale, and she felt more and more that her son's resistance to her and her drifting away made her sad and helpless, "Chengyu, I'm talking to you." ”

"Hmm." Tian Chengyu vaguely agreed.

Tian Chengyu's attitude made Zhang's more and more dissatisfied, and she straightened her face, "Don't think that you are good for Cheng'an, you ......"

"Okay, it's not as exaggerated as you say, it's just an egg." As soon as Zhang's words were halfway through, he was interrupted by Jiang Wanbai, "Our children are sensible, so you don't have to bluff people with those big truths."

The sage said that you should teach students according to their aptitude, but before you explain the truth, think about whether this principle is applicable. As he spoke, Jiang Wanbai handed the remaining egg on the table to Tian Chengyu, "Or, you can think about what your child needs first, and save your eyes." ”

Zhang's face was red in front of so many people, but Jiang Wanbai said this, so she naturally didn't dare to say anything, so she could only nod and agree.

Zhao glanced at Zhang sarcastically on the other side, she didn't say anything, she didn't speak, and the others would not have any objections, and the dinner table was calm again.

And Tian Chengyu clenched the egg, and his little face was full of smiles, but the smile was obviously not for Zhang's.

The golden snake found by Jiang Wanbai's family in the morning was known to the entire Tianjia Village in the afternoon, and some people even came to ask about it, which made Jiang Wanbai very annoyed.

Just remembering that she had something to do, she hurriedly left the house and came to the house of the third uncle.

"I heard that your house is 'golden snake welcomes the door' in the morning?" As soon as the third uncle saw Jiang Wanbai, he also talked about it.

"Ah, sort of." Jiang Wanbai responded vaguely, and quickly said the purpose of her visit this time.

She thought about it, if she wanted to go to the capital to sell flowers, she couldn't do it without an acquaintance, and the only acquaintance she could find was Wang Bao, the son-in-law of the third uncle, that is, the person who used silk to exchange for her drunken shrimp last time.
