Chapter Twelve: Let the Snake Come Again!

Aunt Li had a loud voice, and Shen Yue listened to most of the conversation between the two before she even entered the yard.

After all, she and Luo Qingjiu are now husband and wife, so Aunt Li has the nerve to put her own niece in.

However, Aunt Li didn't feel embarrassed at all: "Is this Qingjiu's wife? I haven't seen you for so long. I thought you were with the Lu family again..."

Aunt Li didn't say anything else. She meant to blame Shen Yue for being ignorant, and also hinted to Luo's mother that Shen Yue would go out to have fun by herself regardless of the injured Luo Qingjiu.

"I heard that Aunt Li is going to give our Qingjiu a maid? I happen to need help here. The slave is only thirty cents a day. Since she is Aunt Li's niece, it is thirty-five cents."

As he spoke, he took out the newly awakened snake from his backpack. The snake, which had just woken up from dizziness, twisted its body.

"Ah!!!" Aunt Li screamed in fright and ran behind Mother Luo.

After calming down, he opened his mouth and scolded Shen Yue: "Ms. Shen, you are a murderer. Who are you trying to scare with a poisonous snake?"

"Aunt Li, what are you afraid of? Aren't you going to send your niece over?"

"Ms. Shen, you are too rude. You are not as gentle and gentle as my Xiuxiu. Tomorrow I will bring Xiuxiu over and ask Qingjiu to divorce you."

Aunt Li immediately became excited and even asked Luo Qingjiu to divorce his wife.

Shen Yue glanced at her lightly, carried the snake into the kitchen, and came out with a kitchen knife. In front of Aunt Li, he chopped off the snake's head without hesitation. "Aunt Li will deliver it tomorrow. I will We are in need of someone capable."

The headless snake twisted twice in Shen Yue's hand and then stopped moving. Blood dripped from the fracture.

After the knife went down, Aunt Li felt her neck was cold and she didn't dare to mention sending her niece.

Not daring to stay any longer, I grabbed a bunch of red mushrooms and ran back home.

"Qingjiu mother, let me try this red mushroom for you. I'll come back another day!"

She was afraid that if she walked any slower, Shen's kitchen knife would fall on her.

Little did she know that she would never be able to enter the Luo family's door next time.

It wasn't until she returned to her home that Aunt Li breathed a sigh of relief and cursed at her man: "This Shen is a lunatic!"

...                              …

After Aunt Li left, Luo Mu immediately closed the door of her courtyard and threatened to never interact with Aunt Li again.

She didn't know people well, and she didn't expect Aunt Li to approach her with such a purpose.

He even dared to say such things as asking Xiaojiu to divorce his wife!

"Yue'er, don't worry, as long as my mother is here, Xiaojiu will only have you as her wife!"

Luo's mother was afraid that Shen Yue would think too much, so she made a solemn promise to her.

Of course Shen Yue believed that the big boss in the original book was someone who would reject even the most beautiful princess. Even if Aunt Li came with Li Xiuxiu, Shen Yue would not worry at all that Luo Qingjiu would marry her.

"Mom, you don't have to blame yourself. Xiaojiu is my husband-in-law. If Aunt Li dares to let her niece come over, I will let a snake bite her!"

The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled, and they both saw their care for the family in each other's eyes.

Shen Yue had some idea of ​​who Aunt Li was, so she asked how could Aunt Li, who had always looked down on them, suddenly be so nice to Luo Mu.

The co-author was thinking of asking Luo's mother to divorce her and marry her own niece, which would be such a great honor!

Shen Yue picked up the snake head and hung it under the eaves. The next time Aunt Li dared to come, she would throw it directly at her.

Mother Luo looked at the limp snake body. Although she was a little scared, she still asked Shen Yue if there was anything she could do to help.

Shen Yue waved her hands repeatedly, saying it was better for her to handle things like poisonous snakes.

She neatly packed up the snake, wrapped the gallbladder in the skin, and put the white snake meat in a bowl for her own consumption.

Everything in the backpack was poured out on the table and sorted one by one.

Most of the basket contained red mushrooms, three mature puffballs, golden nux vomica, many fragrant leaves and grass fruits, and I also picked a handful of fresh perilla leaves!

Luo Mu helped Shen Yue process the red mushrooms and hung them under the eaves to dry.

There were a bunch of strings hanging under the eaves, and Luo Mu still had ten strings in her hand that had no place to dry.

"Mom, just put it there first and I'll come."

Shen Yue put down the half-ground fragrant leaves and grass fruits in her hand, and walked out of the yard with the sickle in hand.

After a while, he came back dragging three poplar branches of similar thickness.

Use a sickle to trim and carve it flat, choose two pieces of equal length, split them in the middle for support, and use the longest piece as the main body.

Put them together, and a simple version of the drying rod is ready.

Mother Luo hung the remaining mushroom skewers on the drying pole and repeatedly praised Shen Yue for her ingenuity.

"I didn't expect poplar branches to have such wonderful uses. Yue'er, you are so smart."

When hanging something to dry in the village, you can only step on a stool and use a small beam under the eaves. Not to mention the trouble, if there are too many things, you can only hang them several times.

The drying rod made by Yue'er can not only hang a lot of things, but also can be hung and picked by reaching out without stepping on a stool.

Shen Yue scratched her head and smiled. She didn't expect that there was no clothes drying pole here. She thought it was just that Luo Qingjiu didn't have one at home, so she thought of making one.

Fortunately, Luo Mu didn't ask too many questions, hung up the mushrooms, and put away all the mushroom poles on the table.

She remembered Yue'er saying that she could use these mushroom poles.

After asking Shen Yue if she had any help, she got up and went into the kitchen to start cooking.

Shen Yue continued to grind the fragrant leaves and grass fruits in her hands into fine powder, put them in small bowls, and put some in to enhance the flavor when cooking.

Shen Yue carefully placed the three mature puffballs in the basket and dried them together with the one she picked yesterday.

Shen Yue took the remaining nux vomica and perilla leaves in the basket into the kitchen and put them in the corner to keep for a while.

In the kitchen, Luo Mu had already lit up the fire and cooked new porridge.

The sweet smell of white porridge came out from the gap in the pot lid, and Shen Yue's stomach growled unsatisfactorily.

Shen Yue touched her stomach embarrassedly. She had gone up the mountain without eating since she had gotten up early. She had been busy and didn't feel hungry. Now when she smelled the aroma of rice, she realized that her stomach was burning with hunger.

"Mom, go and clear away the dishes. The porridge will be ready in half a quarter of an hour."

Luo's mother heard her stomach growling and quickly filled the pot again.

She knew that Yue'er must be hungry, so she made a pot of quick-cooking porridge and heated up the leftover mushrooms from yesterday.

Shen Yue washed her hands and cleared the dishes with Luo Mu.

After the meal was ready, Shen Yue was carrying the porridge and wanted to feed Luo Qingjiu first, but was stopped by Luo's mother.

"Yue'er, you eat first. Xiaojiu, go over there. You've been hungry all morning. How can you not eat something first?"

Mother Luo gave Shen Yue some mushrooms, told her to eat more, and brought a bowl of white porridge into the house to feed Luo Qingjiu.

Looking at Luo Mu's back, Shen Yue hesitated to speak.

Is it really good to just give white porridge to the boss?
