Whenever someone in the village hunts prey, everyone will be more or less envious of those who have hunted prey; but if anyone is the one who attracts the most attention in the village, it must be Qiao Huaping.
When the young man took Qiao Huaping and Sister Du, who was watching the fun, to the place where the deer was killed, everyone in the village who met along the way would look at Qiao Huaping with admiration.
——This is all thanks to Qiao Huaping, who taught archery skills without reservation.
When they arrived at the place where the deer was killed, several people were discussing how to divide the deer meat.
Seeing Qiao Huaping coming over, several people happily greeted Qiao Huaping: "Ms. Qiao!"
Qiao Huaping returned the gift and said with a smile: "I came here to discuss with you, can you sell me the deer blood?"
As soon as she said these words, the young people all had expressions like "Ms. Qiao, look what you are saying."
"We don't need those things! Ms. Qiao is useful, so just take them! Take them all!"
"That's right!"
"If Madam Qiao hadn't taught us, we wouldn't be able to hunt this deer today. It's just a bit of useless deer blood! If the rest of us still accept money from Madam Qiao, we'd be so inhuman!"
"That's right!"
Qiao Huaping saw that several young people were determined not to give money. She thought about it and did not insist on giving money.
"Okay, then I'll take the deer blood away." Qiao Huaping agreed with a smile.
Anyway, these deer blood can be used to make pills for strengthening the body. When the time comes, she will make some pills and give them to these young people.
"Take it, take it, take it all. Madam Qiao is really out of touch with us! If Madam Qiao doesn't take it, the bucket of deer blood will be poured out in a while. If you take it, it will save us trouble."
"That's right!"
While he was talking, a young man silently walked up to the bucket containing the deer's blood, holding the handle of the bucket in his hand, apparently intending to carry the bucket back to Qiao Huaping.
The man was dark-skinned and speechless. He was Sister Du's maternal nephew, Du Wansan.
Sister Du on the side saw it and couldn't help but nodded secretly.
Well, although she had decided not to interfere with her nephew and Xiao Qiao's affairs and was ready to let things take their own course, she was naturally happy to see her nephew take the right path.
Qiao Huaping obviously also remembered Du Wansan. She glanced sideways at Sister Du, who smiled and said: "If the young man has the strength, let him carry it back."
Qiao Huaping said: "Xiao Du, I'm sorry to bother you."
She thought, if she calls Sister Du "eldest sister", and Du Wansan is Sister Du's natal nephew, then based on her seniority with Sister Du, it is completely reasonable and legal for her to call her "Xiao Du".
Du Wansan said nothing and helped Qiao Huaping carry back the bucket of deer blood.
Sister Du was so happy that she didn't follow Qiao Huaping and her nephew anymore. She said hello to Qiao Huaping from a distance, shook her cattail leaf fan, and went to chat with others.
When they arrived at the resting place of the Mei family, Du Wansan carried the bucket of deer blood and held it in for a long time before asking: "...Ms. Qiao, just let it go?"
"Okay, let's put it there." Qiao Huaping took the water bag and a clean bowl with a gap, "Come on, Xiao Du, this bowl has been washed - can you please help me carry it back? It's such a hot day.
, thank you for your hard work - it’s just that I have to use this bucket for a while, and I don’t have such a big bucket at home to hold it. After the pouring is finished, I will send the bucket back to you... It doesn’t matter, right?"
As she spoke, she filled the bowl with water and handed it to Du Wansan.
"It's okay." Du Wansan hesitated for a while, then took the bowl, thanked him, and drank the entire bowl of water.
The sweet water flowed down his throat and poured into his belly. Du Wansan was stunned for a moment and looked at the bowl subconsciously.
This water...is really delicious.
But when asked to describe it, Du Wansan didn't know how to describe it. He just felt that the water was a little sweet, and it was sweet to his heart.
Du Wansan thought, could it be because Mrs. Qiao poured the water for him with her own hands?
The simple young man left with a redder face than when he came.
Qiao Huaping didn't think much about it. She just looked at the big bucket of deer blood that someone worked so hard to bring her. She poured someone a bowl of water mixed with spiritual water to quench her thirst and relieve the heat. Who would have thought that this little Du, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would still be there.
Very good at figuring things out.
Several children from the Mei family came over.
Mei Qinghuang had already finished cutting the venison he had sent earlier. He held the large bowl of chopped meat and showed it to Qiao Huaping with a little pride: "Mom, look at the meat I cut!"
Qiao Huaping looked at it and praised it vigorously: "Not bad, not bad, the thickness is quite uniform - did you cut it into your hand?"
Mei Qinghuang raised her chin slightly: "No!... I can help my mother cut vegetables and meat from now on!"
"Oh, my Huangbao is really capable." Qiao Huaping was very happy and couldn't help but touch Mei Qinghuang's little head.
Mei Qinghuang finished showing off and was about to say something when he smelled deer blood.
He sniffed slightly and looked at the deer blood, his expression changed greatly.
"Mom, this-"
Not to mention the snack foodie Mei Qinghuang, even the oldest Mei Qingyao and the smartest Mei Qingyu changed their expressions and took a step back.
Only the youngest, the fourth, Mei Qingying, looked at the wooden barrel that was almost as tall as her, curiously looking at the deer blood inside, and even wanted to put her little finger in to stir it.
Qiao Huaping grabbed Mei Qingying's little hand.
"Deer blood is sticky and fishy. If Yingying is determined to touch it, mother will let go." Qiao Huaping said.
Although Mei Qingying is young, she has her own unique judgment on the world and often does amazing things.
Perhaps this is the so-called newborn calf not afraid of tigers.
After Qiao Huaping finished speaking, he looked at Mei Qingying inquiringly. Mei Qingying thought about it and took the initiative to retract her hand.
When Mei Qingyu saw Qiao Huaping picking up the bucket of deer blood without changing his expression and walking aside, he hesitated for a moment and then said, "Mom, what are you going to do with this deer blood?"
Qiao Huaping didn't hide anything from her children either.
She had said before that if the children had questions about anything, they could ask her directly.
She smiled and said, "Didn't I collect a lot of herbal medicine in the forest earlier? Just now I remembered a recipe for strengthening the body. I used this deer blood as a medicine. The effect is very good."
Mei Qingyu opened her eyes wide, never expecting that Qiao Huaping could make medicine.
Mei Qingyao didn't think so much. He just thought that the little stepmother was so amazing!
He has such a great little stepmother, he is so proud!
When Qiao Huaping saw such admiring eyes, she couldn't resist at all. She wished she could transform into a superman in front of a few bastards and let them know that their mother could do much more than she did!
