Chapter 65: The Bravest Stepmother
"Run, run as far as you can, hurry up." Mu Yingbao explained to the child behind her, picked up the stick in her hand and smashed it down at the snake.
She didn't know where the courage and strength came from, and the stick smashed down, so fast and fierce, that it hit the snake's head at once.
However, she didn't see it clearly, and there was only one belief in her heart that she couldn't stop, smash and smash.
She didn't know how many times she had smashed, but she didn't have enough strength anyway, and after the speed slowed down, she found that the snake had rolled over and squirmed very slowly.
Ah, let's die, Mu Yingbao came to the spirit again, and looked at the position of the snake's head and made a pestle.
Finally, the snake didn't move, Mu Yingbao wanted to take a few steps back, only to find that her legs were weak, she had no strength at all, and she sat on the ground.
In this way, she didn't dare to relax, she touched the small hoe she threw down earlier, and she didn't dare to let go of the stick in her hand, what if the snake came back to life?
Emma, if she knew it would be so hard, she might as well just let the snake bite it. Anyway, I will heal poisonous snake bites, and there are several herbs here to treat poisonous snake bites.
"You, are you alright?" A nervous voice came from Mu Yingbao's side.
She turned her head to see Brother Hui standing nervously beside her.
"Do you think I'm in trouble?" Mu Yingbao pretended to be calm and said, gritted her teeth and stood up, but she couldn't let a child see the joke.
I don't know if it's self-inflicted, she thinks the child is worried about herself.
After standing up straight, he saw that Brother Hui glanced at the snake again, and immediately turned his head away.
"The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the poisonous snakes are all dispatched, so you are not allowed to come here in the future?" Mu Yingbao remembered and admonished.
Brother Hui nodded, it was so terrible that he couldn't come.
Mu Yingbao moved her still limp legs to find the basket, and Brother Hui followed her inch by her side. She didn't notice the way the kid looked at her.
After walking a few steps, Mu Yingbao suddenly stopped, what a pity that the snake was thrown here, the snake meat was extremely delicious when stewed. You can fight it, and you're afraid of a dead one?
Thinking about it like this, she handed the basket to Brother Hui to carry, turned back, picked up the snake with the stick, and walked back, not to mention that it was quite heavy, it was several catties.
"You, what are you going to do?" Brother Hui asked stumblingly.
"Bring it back and stew it for a tooth sacrifice." There was no one around, and Mu Yingbao didn't fight him.
Yes? Brother Hui remembered that he had heard his grandfather say that eating snake soup in a restaurant tasted very delicious.
However, hearing about it and seeing the real thing are completely different things, how to eat such a terrible thing?
"Yo, in the end, it's a hard-hearted person, this is quite bold, and he dares to get this poison." On the way back, the old woman who had inquired about wild vegetables before was collecting the soles of her shoes at the door, and she saw the things Mu Yingbao was carrying and said in a weird manner.
"Hey, there's no way, life is forced, and besides, this thing doesn't have long eyes and bumps into me, seeing that I'm down, I even come to bully beasts, I can't bear it!" Mu Yingbao also replied with a strange yin and yang spirit and continued to walk forward.
The old woman was choked, but she didn't know how to pay in return, but thinking that this woman was so bold and ruthless, it was better not to provoke her, so she used the awl in her hand to stab Mu Yingbao's back a few times, and continued to accept the soles of her shoes stupidly.
No wonder the people who entered this ghost city are not good!
In fact, after carrying the big snake into his yard, Mu Yingbao regretted it a little.
It seems that it is less difficult to kill it if you want to peel it, and look at the attitude of the neighbors around you, if you want to find someone to help, I am afraid that no one will help. However, it was really blind to bring them back and throw them out.
Anyway, there's a first time for everything. In the past, she would never have imagined that there would be such a day when she would kill a highly venomous snake with her own hands.
Thinking of this, she recalled the steps of the scene of skinning snakes on TV. He found a nail and nailed the snake to the trunk of a tree by the wall, took a knife and cut the hole, gritted his teeth, peeled off the snake's skin, and disemboweled.
The blood was washed away with a splash of water, the head of the snake was cut off, and a heavy, white snake meat went into the basin.
After doing this, she found that it was not so difficult, and she could overcome her fear.
When she was doing this, Brother Hui squatted aside and watched intently, and there was even a trace of admiration.
Mu Yingbao washed her hands and soaked the rice in water.
After washing the vegetables, he chopped the snake meat into sections, put it in a pot and stir-fried it, put it in a jar, add water, shovel out the charcoal fire in the stove pit and put it into the pit made of bricks, and then put the jar on it and stew.
Here I washed the pot and put the rice in the pot to stew the rice. When it was about the same, I fried another green vegetable.
The rice in the pot is ready, and the jar is full of aroma.
"Wash your hands and eat." Looking at the frightened child, Mu Yingbao couldn't come out and beckoned.
When Brother Hui heard this, he immediately went to the basin by the well to wash his hands, pursed his lips and entered the kitchen.
"In the future, let's live together, don't be so particular, let's eat in this kitchen, save the trouble of serving it back and forth." Mu Yingbao said.
Brother Hui nodded, without dissatisfaction.
"You're young, but you have to help do what you can, you know?" Mu Yingbao thought for a while and asked.
The child nodded again, thought for a moment, and went straight to the cupboard and brought the two of them's dishes and chopsticks.
Emma, the child is so cooperative, how can he continue to be fierce in the future? Mu Yingbao was a little worried.
Lifted the lid of the pot, served rice for the child and himself, took a large soup bowl, put snake soup and snake meat out and put it on the table, and reflexively took two spoons to enlarge the bowl.
What made Mu Yingbao even more pleased was that she didn't sit down, and the child didn't even move the chopsticks, waiting for herself.
"Eat." She spoke, and Brother Hui picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.
At first, he only picked up the greens, and his eyes only drifted to the soup bowl.
"Don't be afraid, eat more and grow stronger, so that your father will come back and see you and resent me for abusing you." Mu Yingbao teased the child and sandwiched a piece of snake meat for him.
Brother Hui had already smelled the fragrance, but he was a little afraid and didn't dare to eat it, but seeing Mu Yingbao start eating, he slowly took a bite tentatively, and his big eyes immediately lit up, the meat was so tender and delicious.
Seeing that the child let go of eating, she ate very fragrantly, and Mu Yingbao was also happy in her heart.
This kid doesn't make any awkward mistakes, it's very cute, it's best if the damn Xue Shizi can't come back, and there doesn't seem to be anything bad about her living with this child.
Brother Hui was full of food this meal, and after eating, he obediently sat there and watched Mu Yingbao eat.
When Mu Yingbao had eaten well and went to the well to carry water to boil water and wash dishes, she saw someone passing by in front of the door, and those people looked over to the yard.
"Unlucky children, they know how to eat, and they can't help anything." She complained loudly.
Brother Hui happened to be at the door of the kitchen, and when he saw that her face suddenly changed again, and he also saw the people outside the courtyard wall looking inside, he immediately ran into his house with a small mouth and closed the door with a bang.
At this time, someone came knocking on the courtyard door.
Mu Yingbao stepped forward to see that it was the household manager, and when she opened the door, she saw a few people on the side telling the household manager something......
