The smell of blood is easy to be questioned, especially when those people are guarding the bottom of the mountain. Chen Qiuniang looked around in a hurry, took a stick and pulled it in the grass a few times, and sure enough, she saw a snake spitting out a core.

"Poisonous snakes don't run, running snakes don't poison"! This is a common proverb in the countryside, although this sentence does not apply to bamboo leaves. But most of the time, the viper really doesn't bother to move when it sees people, as if it has a trick to rely on. The snake in front of him lazily spitting out the core has a gorgeous pattern, and it is obviously a poisonous snake.

Okay, it's just you, and it can be regarded as revenge for Chen Qiuniang who was bullied by you last time. Chen Qiuniang made up her mind and began to study how to hit with one shot. She spun around and chose the angle. The snake was also ready to move, as if it was about to pounce at any moment. Chen Qiuniang slammed a stick at its neck, and almost at the same time, the machete directly cut off the snake's head, and then smashed the snake's head with a stick. Then he tied the still wriggling snake body with the grass next to him, and dragged it all the way down the mountain.

The snake's blood dragged all over the ground, although it was different from the smell of human blood, but the smell of the snake itself was very strong, enough to cover up the smell of the blood of the kid surnamed Zhang on her body.

Thinking of the kid surnamed Zhang, Chen Qiuniang couldn't help but think of his ardent expectations, and felt panicked in her heart, feeling as if she had personally cut off a person who was still angry. But if you move and are discovered, you will definitely die. However, it seems that it should not be that nothing has been tried, and that people should keep the results of the ruins.

She dragged the headless snake down the mountain in great frustration, but as soon as she reached the bottom of the mountain, she was confronted by a man in black, who was in the previous group.

Chen Qiuniang was stunned for a moment and stopped, and the man also stopped and stood five meters away to look at her.

Chen Qiuniang didn't know the bottom in her heart, and secretly thought that this person hadn't discovered something. But she still stubbornly moved forward. The man stood there and waited for her to get closer before asking, "What are you doing with this snake?" ”

"Eat, there's nothing to eat at home." She replied in a whisper, giving the illusion that her voice was trembling.

"This is a poisonous snake, and it will poison people." The man in black had a very stern expression.

"Huh? I, I don't know. I saw that it wasn't fast, it wasn't fast, it could be caught, so—" She was a little incoherent.

But the man said lightly, "Sell me this snake." ”

Chen Qiuniang was shocked, she couldn't think of any idea this person had, didn't she take a fancy to herself? Although she has the potential to grow into a beauty, she is still a little girl after all, and she is dressed in dirty coarse cloth clothes, where does she come from.

"This, Viper." She was timid, and the cowardice in her tone was just right. Chen Qiuniang secretly admired her acting skills so outstanding.

"It's okay, I'll take care of it. This one is up to you. The man turned to look at her and handed over three pieces of silver the size of peanuts.

Chen Qiuniang is not very clear about the currency conversion of this time and space, only knowing that the history used to say that the first banknote in Shu was because of inflation and the lack of hard currency, and those gold, silver, jade, and copper were robbed in large quantities, so that thin iron was used to mint coins. When you go out to eat a bowl of noodles, you have to carry dozens of catties of iron coins, which led to the birth of the first banknote.

Then, at this time, these silver must be worth a lot of money. So, she shook her head, refused to accept it, and said, "That's too much." A snake is worth nothing. ”

The man squinted slightly, and said, "It's not just the snake, I'll ask you a few questions, and you answered correctly, the silver is yours." ”

"What's the problem?" Chen Qiuniang looked at this man with big eyes, but her heart turned back and forth, what did this person find, or what did he want from her.

"How old are you?" The first question he asked surprised Chen Qiuniang.

"Oh, it seems like nine." She replied, not knowing the purpose of his question.

"What's your last name?" He asked again.

"My surname is Chen. His ancestral home is Qingcheng County. Chen Qiuniang gave him an answer.

The man was stunned, looked at her again, and said slowly for a long time, "It's okay." It's yours. Leave the serpent behind. ”

Chen Qiuniang thought it was incredible, so the man asked her name and age, and then a broken snake exchanged for the silver? Is this a minute-by-minute rhythm?

Chen Qiuniang also looked at him with an incredulous expression, but he just threw the silver in front of her, pulled the headless snake and turned around and went to the village. The back of the man walking made people feel straight.

It's unusual, and this guy is weird. But these are not things that Chen Qiuniang can see through now. Therefore, for the things that cannot be seen, she has never bothered to spend too much brain cells to think about them, so she only picks up the silver and walks home. Along the way, I inevitably remembered the face of the second boy of the Zhang family, and that kind of extremely expectant eyes. This made Chen Qiuniang sigh again and again, as if he had gone, it would have been his own sin.

I finally got home, but before I entered the door, I heard my grandmother in the house scolding: "Don't look down on people, ungrateful things." If you want to talk, let the old man talk to me in person. ”

"Oh, Old Madam Chen, what are you doing now? You're not someone who hasn't seen the world, and you're not afraid of people laughing at this? A bewitching woman's voice rang out.

Chen Qiuniang listened to this conversation and immediately judged that the person who came was an old friend of the Chen family, but she hadn't figured out what the situation was, and it was not easy to go in and deal with it, so she stood outside the door and listened quietly.

"Why are you afraid of people's jokes? He's not afraid of the Zhu family? Ungrateful things, if I hadn't interceded for him in front of Fei Guifei, the whole family would have seen Hades earlier. Now that my Chen family is down, they came to withdraw from the marriage? He's asking my granddaughter's face to go. Mrs. Chen gritted her teeth and was very excited.

"Yo, look at what you said. The people who asked me to talk about this matter are all high-class matchmakers, which shows that the Zhu family attaches great importance to this matter, and besides, people don't have to say that they must withdraw from the marriage. But if you hand over the token, the fifty taels of silver is not a small amount. In a few years, this Qiu Niang will reach the year of Jilu, if she is still willing to go to Zhu's house, Master Zhu said that there will be a lot of this meal. The woman's voice was even bewitching.

"Isn't that forcing Qiu Niang to be a concubine? At the beginning, I changed my name to the hairpin, placed a token, looked at the eight characters, and asked the ancestors. If they do this, will they not be afraid of thunder and thunder? Chen Liushi still gritted his teeth.

"Hey, I said old lady, what's going on. Your family can't even open the pot, besides, the matter of Qiu Niang's corpse, which is a taboo in any family, don't think that Liuhe Town is far away from here, and the Zhu family doesn't know? I said, the Zhu family is also benevolent and righteous, fifty taels of silver is not a small amount, and there is no need to say that Qiu Niang wants to withdraw from the marriage. Besides, being a poor wife may not be as good as being a rich concubine, the Zhu family has a head and a face. The matchmaker was still in a bewitching voice.

"Get out, you get out of here. If the old thief Zhu doesn't come to the door in person, he will kneel and knock to make it clear, don't want to talk to me. Chen Liushi was so angry that he even threw out the crutch. The matchmaker straightened her skirt unhurriedly, stepped out slowly, and patted a peach-colored skirt again, for fear that it would be stained with something unclean.

When Chen Qiuniang heard this, she realized that it was the Zhu family who came to withdraw from the marriage, no, it should be said that she took back the ancestral token. It's just a set of falling into the well, and the dog looks down on people.

Chen Qiuniang looked up at the matchmaker, in her thirties, with a peach-colored skirt, a gray jacket, her eyebrows and eyes were gorgeous, and her long eyebrows showed great charm. The hairpin on the head is also peach blossom-shaped, and if you don't know, you think it's peach blossom essence coming out.

"Oh, I said Old Madam Chen, you still think about it, you are also a person who has seen the world. If you think about it, call Wan Sanniang at the head of the village to inform me, then Wan Sanniang is my cousin. I'll do this for you, if you don't think fifty taels is enough, I'll go back and say it for you in front of Master Zhu. The matchmaker twisted her bewitching figure, and her eyebrows were completely enchanting.

"Get out." Chen Liu was still gritting his teeth in the house.

Chen Qiuniang stepped forward, smiled at the matchmaker, and said, "I was tired of going back to tell Master Zhu, and said that if you want to take it, you must give it first." If the conditions are right, it is not impossible for the two sides to cooperate. ”

"What are you?" The matchmaker turned her face away, unceremoniously.

"With your style, it takes a lot of money to be able to sit in the chair of a first-class matchmaker, right?" Chen Qiuniang's voice was clear, and when she spread out her hand, her hand was the broken silver given by the man in black just now.

"Stinky girl, you dare to teach me a lesson?" The matchmaker was so angry that she had just suffered from Mrs. Chen that she was going to dig it up here, and she was about to fan it over.

Chen Qiuniang didn't dodge, she only raised the bloodstained machete in her hand, and the matchmaker stepped back and shouted in a long voice: "Oh, it's terrible." The Chen family is about to commit murder. ”

Chen Qiuniang laughed, put down the back, and said, "Get out, speed, this Chen family is not a place where you can come if a dog wants to." ”

"You call me a dog? You can't get married. The matchmaker was even more angry, and the nine-song loop in her voice was gone.

"If you are really a first-class matchmaker, even if you are doing things for others, you will do a decent job, you will not step on the low and should be high, you must know the general situation, understand the time of the world, and will not look down on people. It's sad that you don't have the ability to take on this responsibility. Chen Qiuniang's words fell, and Wu Zi went to the side to sharpen the machete.

The matchmaker was speechless for a while, and hatefully dropped a sentence "What a clever little prodigal hoof, if you can get married, it's weird", and then left angrily.

Chen Liushi shouted in the house: "Qiu Niang, you can't be as knowledgeable as this villain." ”

"Grandma, she just tarnished my reputation and made me infamous for all miles. The world is so big, can you still find my Chen Qiuniang's wishful husband? Chen Qiuniang walked in to comfort her grandmother.

"That being said, that's a villain after all." Chen Liushi sighed.

Chen Qiuniang smiled and said: "I have always been happy to have revenge, but I can't let the villain hold my belly angry." Grandma, don't worry, I married this Zhu family categorically, let alone be a concubine, but this matter can't be so cheap for the Zhu family. We'll put them aside for a few days. Since this thing is important, it should be kept to reflect its value. ”

"I'm actually thinking about it, so I'll just change it to them. This Zhu family is not good at stubble. I'm still worried about our orphans and widows. Chen Liushi shook his head and said.

Chen Qiuniang was a little stunned for a while. Yes, I was so quick to speak just now that I forgot that I had nothing to rely on. This Zhu family is not good at stubble, if it is ruthless, what can he use to parry. At this time, Chen Qiuniang still secretly felt that she was too careless and not careful enough.
