Chapter Thirty-Eight: Little Pepper

Only the stems and branches of the trees are dark brown, and the leaves and weeds of various shapes are tender and green, emerald green, and occasionally one or two dry patches can be seen.

The weeds almost grew to Xu Wan's knees, and every foot she stepped on would hurt the innocent grass, break the roots, and fall to the ground lifeless.

There is an indescribable silence here, the air is accompanied by the smell of plants, except for the soil, from time to time you can see a writhing mollusk trying to struggle to get out of the ground.

Xu Wan could see it, so he didn't notice Chu Yuan's actions.

The dense branches of the trees obscured the light, and the view of the woods was dim. The pair of dark eyes became brighter and brighter, and a pair of long legs restrained and lightened their steps, speeding towards the grass that passed by.

Chu Yuan held his breath, afraid of being alarmed.

As he got closer, he crouched down his tall body, and through the gaps in the weeds, he could already see the figure hiding in the grass.

Xu Wan dodged a green caterpillar, goosebumps rose on her back, she was afraid of this soft insect, and she felt uncomfortable at a glance.

"What are you doing there......?"

As soon as the words fell, no matter how small the voice was, it still alarmed the little things in the grass. It moved restlessly, its front hooves cocked, and it looked like it was about to jump and run away.

The big palm that had been ambushing it for a long time, how could he watch it run away from his eyes. The black eyes accurately fixed the gaze, and the big palm struck back and forth, wrapping it in the palm of the palm.

Xu Wan was stunned for a moment, and in a blink of an eye, she saw the rabbit with snow-white fur in Chu Yuan's hand, she instantly raised her eyebrows and trotted over.

I just entered the mountain, and there was a harvest, what a good start!

She was like a dog, and praised Chu Yuan and said, "It's worthy of you——— rabbit meat is delicious." ”

Chu Yuan: "......"

When I was on duty in the past, several little nurses gathered around and pinched their voices, why do you want to eat Tutu when she is so cute......

He suddenly wanted to ask her, but he couldn't.

Xindao: Xu Wan is really different from others, in her brain circuit, she will always be the first to remember to eat!

Chu Yuan sighed for the rabbit in his hand, falling into the hands of foodies, you are destined to die soon.

"Put it in a bamboo basket and remember to close the bamboo basket tightly. Otherwise, the rabbit meat will be gone. ”

Small animals can run and jump, and it is easy to escape.

In order to allow himself to eat a mouthful of fragrant braised rabbit meat, Xu Wan was especially careful to pack the rabbit and did not forget to check it.

The rabbit in the bamboo basket whispered softly, "Be good, don't run away secretly, or you will be eaten by the big bad wolf." ”

……

Three days to come.

Li Erming instructed his daughter-in-law to watch Li Baoni change her clothes in person, and she had to change into the best one in the cabinet.

He went to the entrance of the village first to greet Master Zhang, the Zhang family was rich and noble, but he was not allowed to lick his face and hold the landlord.

Erming's daughter-in-law was uneasy, answered, and hurried to Li Baoni's house.

rejected his mother that day, Li Baoni didn't take Landlord Zhang seriously, she should eat and drink, and ponder the Xu family.

She had nothing to do, sitting in the room combing her hair, but her heart drifted to another place, and her eyes were blank.

"Nia... Nia ......"

Erming's daughter-in-law called for a long time and no one answered, so she pushed the door directly into the house.

She looked at Li Baoni dressing up, thinking that this stubborn and stubborn girl had finally figured it out and understood the benefits of marrying into the Zhang family. The uneasiness in my heart disappeared, and I touched the black hair that I raised to be a proud girl.

"Ni, that's right, the girl's family looks better in dressing up. Your father said before going out that he would change into the best clothes later, and his mother would take you out to meet people. ”

Li Baoni frowned because of her sober voice and asked, "Who are you seeing?" ”

Erming's daughter-in-law smiled and said: "Seeing Master Zhang, as long as everything goes well today, the Zhang family will send someone to our Li family in a few days to give a dowry." ”

Li Baoni slapped her palm on the table, and the unsturdy legs shook from the violent blow.

She was furious, and she had clearly told her mother that she would not marry! Her father and mother are like this, not forcing her to obey anything!

Erming's daughter-in-law can see it clearly, her daughter's face is not right, and it is even a little ugly, if that slap greets someone, it can immediately swell high.

Xindao: It's not good, this dead girl's temper is too big, even her own mother dares to scare her. My husband's words before leaving... Landlord Zhang is not easy to provoke... How can you not make an appointment?

Erming's daughter-in-law cried with a sad face, tears reached her eyes, as long as Li Baoni dared to say a word and didn't go, she would fall immediately.

"Ni, you should feel sorry for your mother. If you don't show up for the appointment this time, your father will divorce me! ”

"You have reached this age, and you have a mother who has been divorced back to her parents' house, and it's hard to say that you are close———"

What kind of temper does Li Erming have, Li Baoni has inherited everything, these years, Erming's daughter-in-law has been threatened by Li Erming to divorce her wife because of trivial matters.

She knew she was going to annoy him, and he could do it. Several sisters-in-law of her mother's family are not close people, and she was abandoned to return to her parents' home, and her life will only be miserable.

Li Baoni's eyes were filled with anger, although her mother listened to her father's mother, she had never been partial to her since she was a child, and she couldn't bear to watch her mother suffer.

"Okay, I'll go! But you must not stop me if I say anything! ”

It's a big deal to make a lot of eyes and let the landlord retreat from the difficulty, and it has nothing to do with her.

……

The intersection of Jiuqu Village is only large enough for a horse-drawn carriage to pass, and in order to prevent unnecessary people from disturbing the trouble, they agreed to meet on the side of the road at the entrance of the village.

The Zhang family's carriage stopped on the side of the road, and the landlord Zhang opened the window to look around, shaking his head with a little disgust.

This Jiuqu village is so poor that even the land on the side of the road is bald, and there are few living grasses. The land is barren, and Master Zhang has only seen it in a drought-stricken place that he went to many years ago.

Li Erming spoke cautiously: "The hard-working lord came here, it was my girl who was squeamish, and she hadn't traveled so far..."

As soon as Master Zhang heard the meaning, Li Erming was hinting to him that their family was pampered to their daughters, which was different from the little village girl who did farm work.

There was a sound of footsteps in the distance, Li Erming looked back and saw his daughter-in-law pulling the reluctant Li Baoni slowly.

Li Erming didn't care about blaming Li Baoni for being ignorant, and dared to keep a straight face in front of the landlord. Sticking to the side of the car, pointing to that place, and signaling to Master Zhang.

"Sir, they're here."

Erming's daughter-in-law and Li Erming looked at each other, and when they saw the hint given in his eyes, they were so nervous that their palms were sweating, and they pulled Li Baoni forward. Laughing stiffly.

"Sir, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

then pulled Li Baoni's arm and urged: "This is my daughter...... Bonnie! It's not called yet. ”

Li Baoni pouted her head and pouted, never looking at Master Zhang from beginning to end.

Master Zhang squinted and looked at the little girl, and felt that Li Erming was indeed not exaggerating, his girl was indeed beautiful, and she was not like a village woman.

He smiled, looked at Li Boni and said, "Your name is Bony, right?" Are you willing to marry my Zhang family as an aunt? ”

Li Baoni couldn't stand his lustful scrutiny, frowned, and kicked the stones under her feet. Ignoring the hints that Li Erming and his wife kept throwing, she slowly raised her head and met the eyes of the eldest master.

looked at the age of seventeen or eighteen, but there was a maturity and composure in his eyes that exceeded his age, which made Master Zhang feel inexplicably shocked.

Li Baoni said: "To tell you the truth, I don't want to." I didn't want to embarrass my mother when I came here. ”

"The Zhang family has a big business, and if Master Zhang wants to marry a few aunts, it shouldn't be a big difficulty. As for me, Li Baoni, I will not be a concubine in this life. ”

"What do we have to say clearly to our faces, Master Zhang shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Master Zhang somehow saw a hint of threat in Li Baoni's eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

"Li Erming, your daughter has much more backbone than you."

Originally, I didn't have much expectations, but because of Li Baoni's fearless appearance, Mr. Zhang felt that it was not bad to have a little chili pepper at home, which was spicy and exciting enough. What man would dislike the lack of a woman who warms his bed.

Li Erming was so angry with this unfilial girl that he forgot to scold her in shock. By the time she was done, it was already too late.

Li Erming's face turned blue, and he lowered his head and apologized to Master Zhang.

"Master, the dead girl is talking nonsense, don't listen to her..."
