Everyone followed the sound and saw a group of officials gathered around Peng Wang to greet him.
Peng Wang was still a little weak at the moment, but he did not delay speaking.
"Zhou Laoba, what's wrong with me?"
"Boss, you have been poisoned by snake venom."
Hearing this, Peng Wang carefully recalled the situation before he fell into coma.
The first thing he felt was some numbness on his calf where the snake bit him, and the numbness gradually spread.
Later, he felt a little out of breath, and then he didn't know anything.
"I was poisoned by snake venom and didn't die?"
In order to confirm that all this was true, Peng Wang even pinched his face.
Only after confirming that he felt pain did he believe it all.
Zhang Qing stepped forward: "Boss, you are really not dead."
"Who helped me detoxify?" Peng Wang looked around and made sure that he was still in the wilderness. Where could these people find a doctor?
Zhou Laoba pointed in the direction of the Mo family: "That's Mo Jiuye's new wife He Zhiran."
Speaking of He Zhiran, the image of her reminding him appeared in Peng Wang's mind.
Thinking of this, Peng Wang felt a little ashamed.
When someone kindly reminded me, he even scolded me.
He glanced around and finally landed on several large bundles brought from the capital.
"Lao Ba, go and send two white flour buns to each of the Mo family. Also, ask them if they have any other requests. As long as they are not excessive, try to satisfy them."
Zhou Laoba knew that Peng Wang was a grateful person.
It is also clear that he did not want to owe the Mo family any favors. After all, there is still a long way to go, and their duty is not to be too kind to those prisoners.
Seeing Zhou Laoba walking over with a bag from a distance, the female members of the Mo family became a little nervous.
Zhou Laoba placed the bag in front of everyone.
"Our leader said, give each of you two white-flour steamed buns."
When they heard about the white flour steamed buns, the Mo family swallowed unconsciously.
They are really hungry.
Despite this, everyone remained silent and looked at He Zhiran unconsciously.
He Zhiran was also hungry, but her concentration was stronger than the others.
She did not speak, but looked at Zhou Laoba, knowing that he would have something to say later.
"Our leader said that Heshi saved his life. Can we offer any conditions now?"
When they heard that conditions could be made, the eyes of the women of the Mo family lit up.
Does this mean that their lives will be easier in the future?
He Zhiran did not expect that Peng Wang would take the initiative to ask her to make conditions.
At the same time, she also thought of a possibility, that is, Peng Wang wanted to pay back the life-saving grace at once, and he would do whatever he wanted in the future.
In this case, she must seize this opportunity.
Although He Zhiran had already made up her mind, she still looked at Mrs. Mo.
No matter what you do, it's not good to go beyond your elders.
He Zhiran's behavior once again won the favor of Mrs. Mo, and at the same time, he became even more convinced of this daughter-in-law.
"You are the one who saved the person. You can make up your own mind on what conditions you want. Just don't be greedy."
Mrs. Mo knew that her daughter-in-law was a very wise person and would be more considerate than she thought when doing things. All she needed to do was give her a little reminder.
In this case, He Zhiran had no intention of being polite anymore.
At the same time, she also strongly agreed with Mrs. Mo's words that she should not be greedy and it would be best to leave some room for the future.
"Master, we don't have many requests. We just hope that when we pass by the next county town, we can buy some items."
He Zhiran felt that this condition was enough for now.
She has endless money in her hands, she just needs to buy more daily necessities, and everything else is easy to talk about.
Zhou Laoba couldn't believe that when He Zhiran was asked to put forward conditions, she only made such a small request.
There is no need to report this matter to Peng Wang, he can make the decision.
"No problem, I promise you this. I will pass by Yunlai County at noon tomorrow. We will replenish supplies there, and we will send someone to accompany you to purchase."
"Okay, thank you, sir." The other party agreed to the conditions proposed. He Zhiran did not show much excitement and replied calmly.
"Don't you have any other requests?" Zhou Laoba was not in a hurry to leave.
He Zhiran had no intention of being greedy, but looking at Zhou Laoba's appearance, he seemed to be dissatisfied that the conditions he proposed were not enough.
"Since the official asked me to say it, I still want the snake I killed today."
Zhou Laoba frowned: "You are a woman, what do you want with that thing?"
"Many things on snakes can be used as medicine." He Zhiran answered evasively. She couldn't tell others that she wanted to make poison.
"I promise you this too."
Seeing that Zhou Laoba was happy, He Zhiran did not intend to delay him any longer.
"I've finished all my conditions."
"Okay, I'll go back and tell the boss."
In Zhou Laoba's heart, He Zhiran saved Peng Wang's life, but this little thing was really a loss.
After going back and reporting the matter to Peng Wang, he took the initiative to return with a few water bags and the silver krait snake.
"These water bags are intended to be sold to exiled prisoners. Seeing as those people don't have much money, they probably can't afford them, so I just gave them to you.
We still have some white-flour steamed buns there, but the weather is hot now and they will spoil if we can’t finish them. I’ll give you some more tomorrow morning.”
Throwing the water bag and the bungara snake in front of He Zhiran, Zhou Laoba turned around and left.
He Zhiran quickly distributed two steamed buns to each person.
Although the white-flour steamed buns were not unpalatable, they had no vegetables at all and were so dry that they were hard to swallow.
He Zhiran had an idea and her eyes fell on the package He Yuanming gave her.
Before she even had time to open the package and check it out, it showed that no one knew what was inside.
He Zhiran put one hand into the package, but his consciousness entered the space.
There is the newly bought beef with soy sauce, which has been cut and placed in the refrigerator.
The sauced beef was packaged in a plastic bag, which could not be taken out for anyone to see. She could not find the oil paper that was common in this era.
In desperation, He Zhiran had no choice but to grab a large handful of soy beef.
In special times, it would be hypocritical to pay too much attention to things. As long as you can eat better, there is nothing hygienic or unhygienic about it...
"Mom, sisters-in-law, little sister, this is the soy sauce beef that my parents sent me today. You can eat it together with the steamed buns."
Everyone's eyes lit up when they saw He Zhiran holding a large handful of soy sauce beef.
However, the rules they have developed since childhood tell them that women cannot eat so rudely, especially if they eat directly with their hands.
Just when everyone was struggling, Mrs. Mo spoke.
"It's time now, and it's time to let go of our rules."
Mrs. Mo is a person with a clear mind. She is the first to recognize the reality. She said this because she intends to try to accept it all.
After all, they are no longer the ladies of wealthy families.
