Burn the serpent
Li Pian'er was so amused by this funny scene that she bent over and laughed, and forgot for a moment that there was a snake head with a wide mouth in her hand. The snake took advantage of her, and the snake licked her cheek. The sudden kiss of the snake made her heart tremble, and laughter choked in her throat. She quickly raised her head, looked around in embarrassment, and saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she forced her composure, and pretended to continue to laugh at the little guy.
Li Pian'er's retribution is coming, and she can't stop it. Although those subordinates didn't see it, it did startle her, and she couldn't regain her peace for a long time. But for the sake of her worthless face, in order not to lose face in front of others, she was not so frightened that she immediately threw away the snake in her hand, but pinched it seven inches and cleaned it up fiercely, and scolded it for eighteen generations of ancestors in her heart.
After the little guy got up embarrassedly, he no longer had the courage to persuade Li Pian'er, picked up the big iron tongs that fell to the ground with a sneering face, and began to work hard. The snake cave was completely wiped out in their hands not long after, and Li Pian'er never thought that there were really two smaller snakes and a few shriveled snake skins hidden in it, and the two snakes were finally put into a burlap bag by a nest of three people. In order to prevent any fish from slipping through the net, the three of them did not rush out, but carefully searched for it in the grass, knocked around and beat around, and only stopped after making sure that it was absolutely foolproof.
"Mrs. Li, if there is nothing else, we will leave first, this snake, you should be careful." The three little guys were afraid of Li Pian'er, so they stood far away from her when they said something, and they didn't prepare to ask for the snake she was holding in both hands, but just reminded her to be careful.
Li Pian'er blocked their way, rolled her eyes, and said in a loud voice: "You guys stop, there are three snakes, I thought about it, it just so happens that the smallest one is used to make porridge and drink, and the big one in my hand is brought to the wine shop where snake meat can be made." The rest of the piece, which is not too big or small, Miss Ben is going to burn it and eat it. The three of you go away, get me some firewood, and make a fire here, and I will burn the snake to eat. ”
She wanted to play one out at a time, and the maids saw her ghost ideas thrown out frequently like thunder, and they exploded so much that they were unable to parry, and they had nothing to love.
"Huh?" The three little men looked at each other, wondering if they had heard it wrong, on such a hot day, there was still a fire in this dense vegetation, and if they were not careful, it would spread to other places and invite disaster. This Li Pian'er seems to be worried that the heat will not die, so she has to help this God.
"Mrs. Li, this, this is not appropriate, there is no fire here, if the big officials blame it, our good days in Fengfu will come to an end. And you see, the wind is still blowing, and it's easy to have an accident if you make a fire here, and if something really happens, you'll have to go to jail. One of the little guys had the audacity to show a very embarrassed look, analyzed the powerful relationship for Li Pian'er, and tried to dispel this idea for her.
If Li Pian'er listened to the persuasion of others, it would be a strange thing. She tilted her head and glanced at the three of them, and sneered sarcastically: "What's wrong with eating prison food, you can get it for nothing, from now on you can live a beautiful life of stretching out your hands and opening your mouth with food, but I'm helping you realize the value of life in advance!" ”
The little guys didn't expect that the illegal matter could be said so easily by Li Pian'er, and the three of them became incredulous with a smile on their faces, and they hurriedly shook their heads and waved their hands to persuade and refuse: "This kind of thing can't be done, we still want to be free for a few more years." Mrs. Li, you just listen to the advice. ”
Li Pian'er was unrelenting and arrogant: "I don't care, it's okay if you're careful, I promise that I can't burn the house." You have to bring me some firewood to make a fire today, or your good days will come to an end now. And isn't it just a big rooster? If there's anything to be afraid of, I'll chop him with a kitchen knife. He is not at home during the day, if you don't say it, I don't say it, who will know. Pig head! ”
The little guy carrying the snake bag sighed secretly, and his tone of persuasion changed to pleading: "Mrs. Li, don't embarrass us as subordinates, it's not easy for us to have an errand to support our family." ”
"How can this be called a dilemma? It would be nice if you didn't do it, how easy it is, Miss Ben didn't let you kill people and set fires, look at your, it's like you're going to die. Li Pian'er coiled the snake's body around her arm, saying that she would not let them kill people and set fires, but what she forced them to do was to set fires.
The three of them don't want to deal with Li Pian'er who is messing around, and they can only be rude in the face of such a situation, and slipping away is the best policy. However, before they had taken a few steps, Li Pian'er's threatening words restrained their legs: "If you don't listen to my orders, forget it, it's a big deal that I will make a fire myself, but if the house is really burned down at that time, I will tell your family officials that you did it, and you are my helpers and accomplices." ”
Li Pian'er's words were full of effect, and after a while, there was an extra charcoal basin here, and the fire in the basin was burning, and the scorching heat was surging through the waves like waves, mixed with the scorching sun and the sound of cicadas, making people feel anxious and depressed.
Li Pian'er was so hot that she entered the corridor, the big snake was tortured half to death in her hands, and the two maids behind her who fanned her had extremely ugly expressions, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and she didn't dare to look directly at her master's hand.
Li Pian'er walked down the corridor and ordered the little servant through the brazier, "You throw the snake into it." ”
"Mrs. Li, snake meat is not roasted like this, it is better to give them to the cook." The little guy was sweating with heat all over, they had never encountered such a strange thing, and they couldn't help but hesitate in their hearts. I was forced to make a fire here, and now I had to listen to Li Pian'er's instructions to throw the live snake into the fire. Their hearts reject such cruel things.
Li Pian'er just likes to challenge new things, she also eats a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and even tried to cook snake meat during that camping, but she has never eaten barbecue snake meat, she has made up her mind to use the snake for barbecue. It's just that her method doesn't seem to be right, how can she just throw the snake into the fire like her without disemboweling and cleaning it up. "I'm going to burn it like this, just do it, and be less verbose." She exuded a domineering aura all over her body, and the little girl had to do so, and the moth pressed towards the raging flames.
Above the flames, the long snake that kept twisting and struggling fell into the sea of fire with a snap the moment the big iron tongs were released, and the violent flames were like the greedy ghost licking and wrapping its tenacious body wildly. The snake's body is violently churning and twisting among the firewood, as if it is making a final struggle with fate, and is engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the flames, venting the unwillingness in its heart, maybe it will not think that one day its end will be a sea of fire.
In the flames, the snake's skin burned with a rattling sound, and when it reached the ears of the maids, they were terrified and trembled unconsciously. The crisp air was gradually gone, tainted by the burning stench of burning hair, and the wind blew from among the bamboos, and the scorching smell became more and more profound, disgusting, and caused those present to cover their mouths and noses.
The little life that was unwilling to die in the flames finally failed to fight the relentless flames that devoured it, and after several struggles, it fell into a long slumber and its body was charred.
Li Pian'er frowned, raised her palm and gently fanned it in front of her nose: "It stinks, the smell is so disgusting, it seems that the roasted snake meat can't be eaten." Don't burn it, you guys, clean it up. She thought for a while, and threw out the things she had almost forgotten again: "The snake in the sack was handed over to the cook to cook porridge, and when it was boiled, I sent a bowl to my father-in-law by the way, which can be regarded as my compensation for his lonely empty room." She said this without brains, without concealment, and everyone had different expressions, just because her words were completely damaging Feng Yaojue's face. In their understanding, how could a woman in the world dare to treat her husband like this. Those maids are okay to say, after all, they witnessed her unceremoniously kicking Feng Yaojue out of the room that night, but those little girls are different, and this unclear meaning can prompt them to guess and think about it.
Xi Hai stood aside and pulled the corner of Li Pian'er's clothes awkwardly, winked at her and said, "Mrs. Li, be subtle, the face of the second official ......"
"That's right, give him some face. Jin Hai, let's go, the sun is about to set, change clothes, go out for a walk, find a good cooking restaurant and cook the snake. Li Pian'er said, turning around and leaving.
The fine hairpin had the courage to block her way: "Mrs. Li, if you want to make snake meat, the cook in the house will make it, and it will be good to hand it over to her, you see, the hour is not early, so don't go out, it's too late, as soon as the door in the house is closed, we can't get in." I've heard that robbers have been haunting lately, hiding in unoccupied corners at night to catch young women passing by. Although the fine hairpin is scaring Li Pian'er, it also has a trace of effect.
Li Pian'er understands the truth of being outnumbered, she used to act recklessly and cause trouble because there were many people and she was not afraid of anything, but now it is different, she is alone in this world. She hesitated for a moment, and although the thought of going out was not dispelled, she made a concession: "There should be a few hours before dark, so let's rush back before dark, I promise nothing will happen." The snake soup made by the chef in the house is certainly not as delicious as the one made in the wine store, and I can't afford to waste such a good ingredient. Li Pian'er is really no one, there are a bunch of reasons, her thoughts are like some people always think that other people's things are the best, and they don't know how to cherish what they have.
The fine hairpin was helpless, shook his head and followed behind Li Pian'er. Li Pian'er even succeeded in leaving a bad mess to be cleaned up by the pile of maids, and the snake was still coiled in her hands, so destroyed that even the snake letter was almost out of strength to vomit.
After changing her clothes, Li Pian'er walked out of the back door with a big snake in her hand, and the back door was facing a dark alley, and out of the alley was the main street where people were bustling. By this time, the golden sunset had moved over the wall, and the whole street was half-hidden in shadows, and all kinds of flags swayed and danced in the evening breeze that had not yet died. The street vendors have changed a batch, and those who do daytime business have returned, and those who do night markets have come, and so on and so forth, and the streets have been bustling day and night without interruption.
