Chapter 16

What comes into view is a gray and yellow, thick, one meter long...snake!

No, it's a giant snake.

In Su Wangyun's eyes, the one-meter-long snake was a big snake, and the fear in her eyes almost turned into reality.

Something exploded in her mind, and everything went blank.

She is afraid of snakes. She is afraid of snakes.

I wish I could faint on the spot.

When his face turned pale, he stood there holding on to the roots of the tree, his breathing slowed down, and he watched helplessly.

The big snake was subdued by a tall and straight man whose face could not be seen clearly, and was rolled up and twisted into the sack.

Until the mouth of the sack was tied tightly, Su Wangyun's blank head gradually returned to reality.

Standing close, the distance between the man and her was only more than one meter. It seemed that he heard the sound she just made and turned his head to look over.

Their eyes met, and the air was unusually quiet.

Su Wangyun blinked, pretending to be calm and expressionless, turned around and left.

The leaving figure looked a bit embarrassed.

Jiang Ying raised his eyebrows slightly, and was about to speak, when he rolled his tongue in his mouth, stopped, and his voice got stuck, looking at her back without looking back.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but the girl looked a little embarrassed and sullen, as if someone had offended her.

Jiang Ying's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking whether her actions just now were too abrupt.



Su Wangyun turned around and left, still feeling frightened.

Thinking of that big, thick snake spitting out snake bites ferociously...

Su Wangyun shuddered and stepped forward a lot faster.

October is a busy season. At this time, most villagers will work hard in the fields.

Su Wangyun was not idle either. He finally planted pea seeds in the three plots of land he dug out in late September and early October. Compared with other vegetable seeds, peas are more cold-resistant.

If you plant them as early as possible and take care of them, you will have a harvest by the end of December.

In the past few days, Su Wangjing was ordered by Su Wangyun to help out at home, opening fields to grow vegetables, carrying water from wells, repairing holes in the roof... he did all the hard work he could do.

Su Wangjing did not complain and worked conscientiously, which surprised Su Wangyun.

Su Wangyun, who was originally a little prejudiced and unwelcoming, softened a lot.

The thatched house was reorganized and repaired, and with the additions of the four siblings, it became a family.

After being busy for more than ten days, Su Wangyun would light candles in the room and read medical books when he was free at night. After half of the candles were burned, Su Wangyun would boil water in the kitchen and read by the light of the fire.

The hard work paid off. After spending more than ten days, I finally finished reading "Shen Nong Baicao Lu".

When she first chose to read this book, she was cautious, thinking that since she was close to the mountains and knew more herbs, she might be able to dig up some herbs, dry them and sell them one day when the mountains were exhausted.

She had finished reading Baicaolu. There were more than tens of thousands of medicinal materials. Su Wangyun didn't know how many kinds she could recognize. On the contrary, they were wild vegetables that she didn't know before. She knew a lot of them now, and she dug a lot of them in the mountains later.

Vegetables, water celery, schizonepeta, bitter herbs...

She had heard of most of these wild vegetables before, but she didn't know many of their properties. For example, bracken, also known as dragon's claw and sawgrass, is the rhizome of Bracken, a plant in the Bracken family, and is harvested in autumn and winter.

It has a slightly astringent nature and flavor and can relieve sores.

Nepeta, also known as Schizonepeta, has pungent properties and is slightly warm. It can relieve superficial symptoms and disperse wind, relieve rash, and eliminate sores...

Waiting for these, of course, besides this, Su Wangyun noticed another point of focus.

These are all edible, and this is undoubtedly good news for a family that urgently needs to solve the food ration problem.

Moreover, Su Wangyun also came up with an idea to make money.

She makes snacks and sells them in town.

Go to the mountains to pick fresh wild vegetables, mix them with lotus roots, bamboo shoots, fungus... low-cost, simple and delicious cold side dishes, if you make them well, you should be able to make some money...?

When Su Wangyun came up with the idea, he just started doing it. First, he went up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots and pick fungus for several days. The wild vegetables can be cooked first. There is no need to prepare in advance. The ingredients are ready...

Su Wangyun counted the pile of cents left in his hand, including one cent and two cents, one cent and two cents, and thirty and fifty cents. Regardless of the large number, the denominations were all very small. The total amount counted was only five yuan, which was pitiful.

"Sister, what are you doing counting money?"

Su Wangjing, who had just finished watering the vegetable field and turned around to put down the wooden basin, saw Su Wangyun put the counted money into his trouser pocket and eagerly moved over.

"It's none of your business anyway. I'm going to town today. You stay home and watch your siblings. I'll be back in the evening."

Su Wangyun said, rolled up a sack and held it in his hand.

This sack is big, and most people in the village will prepare one when they go to the town market. It has a large capacity and is strong. It is suitable for carrying things on your shoulders.

Su Wangjing looked at the bulging pocket, licked his greedy mouth, and begged, "Sister, when you come back from town, can you bring me some meat buns?"

In fact, what he wanted to say more was to sell some meat, but considering the price of pork, even a few dollars would not be enough to feed him alone, so he might as well sell meat buns.

The meat buns are big and filling, so you'll feel full after just two or three of them.

Su Wangyun glanced at him and said, "Look how beautiful you are."

Just to sell the necessary seasonings, the five dollars she has on her body may not be enough.

The meat buns are not beautiful...
