Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 1207 Sweetness and tacit understanding (fifth watch)

"Auntie, you feel cold looking at them now, and it will be stewed into a big pot of snake soup later, and your saliva will be dripping down!"

Yang Ruoqing said with a smile.

The women were too frightened to approach the snake basket, but she rolled up her sleeves and put on the burlap gloves she usually worked with as if nothing had happened.

Then leaned over and pulled out a snake skillfully from inside.

With both hands outstretched, a small and thin blade is held between the fingertips.

The blade was drawn so casually.

"Huh..."

It was as if the finest cloth had been scratched, and after a clear and subtle sound, the snake's cylinder-like body was pulled away by her.

Two dexterous fingers stuffed it in, pulling, hooking, and pulling.

All the sundries in the snake's belly were pulled out.

The hollowed out snake was thrown into an empty basket at the feet, and the snake's internal organs were placed in another wooden basin.

Luo Fengtang squatted beside the wooden basin, and picked a intact snake gall from the pile of sundries.

Then carefully put it in another small pot.

Looking at the skillful movements of these two people, they also cooperated so tacitly.

Da Sun couldn't help but said to Sun who was beside him: "Oh, it's not that the family does not enter the house, this is true!"

"Look at this, the people in the yard, just Qing'er and Tang Yazi picking up snakes, look good!"

Faced with Dasun's joke, everyone laughed and watched.

Here, the two people who were busy picking up the gallbladder of the snake also heard it.

The two looked at each other and smiled, a kind of sweetness and tacit understanding flowed through each other's eyes.

The snake galls in this basket were quickly picked off, Luo Fengtang followed Yang Ruoqing's instructions, took all the snake galls to the well in the backyard and continued to pick them up.

As for herself, she stood up and said to the surrounding crowd: "Mother, auntie, I went to the pond at the entrance of the village to skin the snake. Let's not eat porridge tonight, cook rice and eat snake soup!"

Yang Ruoqing went to the entrance of the village to skin the snake, but still followed a group of spectators behind her ass.

Most of the children in the village followed.

Yang Ruoqing was skinning the snakes one by one, while the children were laughing and playing around.

Women dare not touch snake skinning, even men who are timid.

In this way, in the eyes of these children, Yang Ruoqing is really amazing.

Xiao An stood among a group of children, and the steamed stuffed bun had a look of pride on his face.

Xiaopang put his hands on his hips, and said to the other friends with air: "Have you seen it? These snakes were all made by my sister and brother-in-law. My sister and brother-in-law are amazing, right?"

The other bunch of little heads nodded like chickens pecking at rice.

Xiaoan was even more proud.

"Anyone of you who wants to watch my sister peel the snake, you must obediently obey me from now on and beg me to be your eldest brother."

"Otherwise, I won't show it to him! Do you understand?"

Xiao An asked again.

The other little heads nodded again like chickens pecking at rice.

But there are also voices of doubt.

"Yang Xiaoan, this snake was made by your sister and brother-in-law, not you."

"Why do we look at peeling snakes and beg you to be the eldest brother? My mother said that when I was born, you were still in your mother's belly!"

It was a little boy with a runny nose who said this.

Xiao An cast a disdainful look at the little boy.

He raised his fleshy little palm and patted his own little chest: "My brother said that the tiger father has no dogs."

"My sister is amazing, as a younger brother, I will definitely be even better in the future!"

"Now you ask me to be your big brother, help me dig out eggs and catch fish, and when I grow up and become stronger, I will protect you!"

"Huh, really? Yang Xiaoan, will you really become stronger when you grow up?"

"of course!"

"Don't cry when you get stung by a wasp?"

"Nonsense, slug, you asked this question, it lowered my IQ!"

Xiao An sighed and shook his head.

While Yang Ruoqing was busy peeling the snake's skin, she could hear every word said by the children around her.

Can't help but laugh.

She glanced at Xiao An who had just reached her waist.

Xiao Duan held his chest with his hands and stood there with a stinky face, which was funny and cute.

I was an orphan in my previous life, with no father, no mother, and no brothers or sisters.

In this life, there are father, mother and two younger brothers.

The eldest brother is knowledgeable in books and etiquette, young and mature.

The little brother is active and eccentric.

The two of them move and stay still, they are her two living treasures, seeing that with her efforts, the two younger brothers can enjoy a happier juvenile and childhood life.

She felt a sense of accomplishment and energy.

A basket of snakes was finished amidst the laughter of the children.

The sky was also getting dark, and there were many mosquitoes by the water. The adults all came to take their children back to their homes.

Yang Ruoqing turned around to go home with the clean snake joke in her hand again, only to find that Xiao An was still waiting by the water.

Holding a willow branch in his hand, he scratched his body while waving away mosquitoes.

"Hey, didn't you just let Xiaohua and Xiaoduo go home first? Why did you sneak back?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Xiao An said: "I am a man, I want to protect my sister."

"Huh?" Yang Ruoqing was startled.

Xiao An pointed to the pond water behind her, and said: "There are water monkeys in the water. When it gets dark, they come out to bask in the moon. I'm afraid my sister will be dragged away by the water monkeys."

The childish words made Yang Ruoqing smile, but her heart felt warm.

Words like water monkeys in the water are used by adults to frighten children, in order to prevent them from playing in the water secretly.

The world in the eyes of children is sometimes very simple, and adults believe what they say.

Therefore, she does not advocate using this method to scare children, although the intention is good.

"Actually, there are no water monkeys in the water. It's just that if a child falls into the water and there are no adults around, it will be very dangerous and will drown."

Yang Ruoqing took Xiao'an's hand and led him to the house, communicating with him carefully and explaining the truth.

Xiao An listened very carefully, and when he reached the gate of the yard, Xiao An stood down.

Looking up at Yang Ruoqing, she said with an extremely relaxed voice, "Sister, tonight I won't have any more scary dreams. I finally know that water monkeys are fake and won't pick up children!"

Yang Ruoqing was surprised, and touched Xiao An's face.

"What? You often had scary dreams some time ago?" she asked.

Xiao An nodded: "Well, the aunts and aunts in the village all said that there are water monkeys in the water, and human-eating piggies in the mountains. They also said that when people are about to die, they will be haunted..."

"It made me dare not look out the window at night, and I dare not get out of bed to pee, it was so uncomfortable!"

"Uh……"

Yang Ruoqing was speechless.

He raised his hand and rubbed Xiao An's head: "Those are all fake, you are a man, be brave!"

"Is it like brother-in-law?" Xiao An asked.

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

"What do you look like to me?"

A voice came over, the siblings turned their heads to see, it was Luo Fengtang!

"This person really doesn't talk about it. You came just as soon as I mentioned you." Yang Ruoqing said.
