After being stranded on a deserted island, they all plotted against me

When Gu Qingrou placed a handful of snake fruits in the shelter and walked back to the woods.

Qin Ruoyan had already picked up a snake that was two fingers thick, over one meter long, and had its head cut off from the ground with her hands, with a happy smile on her face.

If the snake's head had not been cut off and it was still twisting, and blood was not dripping from the cut part, this scene would still be slightly healing.

But now, all that's left is a feeling of terror.

"Ah..." Looking at the absolutely terrifying scene in front of her, Gu Qingrou swallowed subconsciously and exclaimed: "Snake!"

But seeing her reaction, Qin Ruoyan smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's a dead snake. We'll have meat to eat tonight!"

Eat meat!

These two words struck Gu Qingrou's heart directly.

And at this moment, the snake that was being picked up by the other party began to change from being terrifying to being somewhat pleasing to the eye in her eyes.

However, Qin Ruoyan and Gu Qingrou, who had other clear goals, did not dwell on the snake for too long.

The beheaded beast, whose body was still slightly wriggling, was thrown next to a banana tree that had accumulated a lot of water.

After they used the stems of banana trees for simple water replenishment.

The two discussed it for a while, and then according to their almost continuous memory, they started to head towards the large pyrite mine behind the snakeskin fruit forest.

When the sun moves from the center to the southwest.

Qin Ruoyan and Gu Qingrou also walked back with a bag of pyrite.

Perhaps because of its age, the stone surface of this lump of pyrite is still relatively brittle.

At least for the metal sheet held by two people, they only need to pry it slightly to pry a piece of it off.

As for how much they harvested, they had no idea.

But among these pyrite ores, there are only five standard cubes similar to the two in Zhang Liu's hands.

The others are in the shape of round lumps.

"The next thing is to make a fire."

She took down the bunch of old man's beard hanging in front of her and stuffed it into the pocket of her school skirt to serve as a fire starter.

As Qin Ruoyan spoke, her face was full of smiles.

She was very happy indeed.

After obtaining the pyrite, the biggest task is completed.

All that remained was to return to the rocky summit and start a fire to roast the snake meat.

Then tomorrow, he and Gu Qingrou could set out on the return journey together.

First, I met my sister and Xiang Lingying who were waiting in the cave, and finally I met Zhang Liu who I hadn't seen for a long time...

Chapter 409 I feel like you two don’t match well (Chapter 11 added with monthly ticket rewards)

While Qin Ruoyan was imagining how she would make a fire and roast the snake meat.

At this moment, her sister Qin Ruoshuang was sitting side by side with Xiang Lingying, eating mutton chunks.

The time came before noon.

Move the fire to the bottom of the cave and add a lot of thick wood to prevent it from going out.

After a simple brunch, Qin Ruoshuang set off on her journey carrying rabbit legs and sea salt.

With no water containers at hand, the only thing she could do was to go and pour clean water into her stomach.

And he held a coconut in his hand as a source of water.

In Qin Ruoshuang's opinion, it was just a day without drinking water, and she could endure it even if she gritted her teeth.

But after walking for a while, she saw a rocky plain not far away.

A black figure was walking towards him with big strides.

From her current perspective, Qin Ruoshuang felt that the other person was about the size of a black bean.

"To Lingying!"

But even if it was just a figure whose identity she couldn't even tell, it was enough for her to jump and wave, and shout out the other person's name.

Qin Ruoshuang really did shout it out with all her might.

The sound was loud, echoing all over this plain where rocks and grasslands coexist.

But unfortunately, in this situation where she couldn't even see clearly, her voice had no way of reaching the other person's ears.

After a few seconds of silence, Qin Ruoshuang chose to move forward again with the rabbit leg on her back.

However, what was different from the original plan was that she directly drank the coconut in her hand.

When the sun was just overhead, Qin Ruoshuang, who was carrying a rabbit leg, and Xiang Lingying, who was carrying a lamb leg, met successfully.

Boil water for a leg of lamb, remove the hair, cut it into pieces and stew it in an alloy pot!

There was no need for further communication. The moment she heard the other party say that there was a leg of lamb behind him, she thought of this cooking method.

There were two bottles of water on Xiang Lingying's waist. She had already drunk one bottle along the way, and gave the other bottle to Qin Ruoshuang.

The sun was so strong that the entire rocky plain was scorching hot.

The grassland next to the rocky plain was faintly emitting a layer of hot air like steam.

So on the way back, the two of them hardly talked to each other except for a few words when they first met.

When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, they both did the same thing at the same time.

That is, don't go up first, but drink it heavily in the small clay pot next to the puddle.

"Ah... I'm saved..." Feeling his throat, which was originally dry to the point of smoking, being instantly moistened by the clear liquid, Xiang Lingying, who had been carrying the heavy load for half a day, couldn't help but sigh.

Beside her, Qin Ruoshuang also looked a little embarrassed.

Although the rabbit legs combined are not as heavy as two wooly lamb legs, they are definitely not light either.

After all this trouble, she was very tired.

The two walked into the cave one after the other along the small steps next to the cave.

Feeling the unique coolness and comfortable grass mat inside the cave, Xiang Lingying, who had not slept well the night before, went back to the cave and lay down to catch up on his sleep.

It was not until the evening when her stomach started to growl and she was awakened again by the aroma from the pot.

Without saying anything, Xiang Lingying took the chopsticks handed to him, simply thanked him, and began to scoop out the meat and eat it together with Qin Ruoshuang.

Qin Ruoshuang's cooking method can be described as simple and crude, and making the best use of ingredients.

But the price she paid was that she didn't have any rest for the whole afternoon.

First, move the fire burning outside the cave into the cave.

Then use a metal sheet and hot water to remove the hair from the two lamb legs.

One of the lamb legs was cut into jerky and pickled for preservation, while the other lamb leg bones were smashed with stones and put into an alloy pot and stewed with the other lamb leg.

After eating a few pieces of mutton and filling his empty stomach.

Xiang Lingying also shared with Qin Ruoshuang the various situations that happened during the time he and Zhang Liu were together.

"Well, Zhang Liu is out of salt, so the grilled skewers of internal organs taste very bland."

"There was no one else but him."

"We dug the hole together."

“And there was a standoff with the wolves.”

The whole meal process was very long, from dusk until it gradually darkened.

Qin Ruoshuang hardly picked up her chopsticks. With a piece of sour mutton in her mouth, she just listened to Xiang Lingying talking silently.

It was not until Xiang Lingying put down his chopsticks, picked up a half-cooled lamb leg bone and began to chew it that Qin Ruoshuang suddenly whispered, "Xiang Lingying, can I ask you something?"

Xiang Lingying, who was trying hard to enjoy the bone marrow of a lamb leg, was stunned for a moment when she heard the words of her companion in front of her, and she felt inexplicably nervous in her heart.

Because Xiang Lingying could hear that Qin Ruoshuang's tone was very serious.

But then she nodded and said, "Hello."

"Do you like Zhang Liu?"

Looking at the eldest lady of the Xiang family in front of her, with whom she had some acquaintance, but the relationship was not very deep, Qin Ruoshuang spoke in a very serious tone.

She is neither stupid nor blind.

The smile on the other person's face when he mentioned Zhang Liu just now is enough to explain a lot.

The reason why she asked Xiang Lingying so frankly was because Qin Ruoshuang took the other party's identity into consideration.

In her mind, Zhang Liu and herself, the second young lady who could marry out, were a perfect match.

With the eldest daughter of the Qin family, that is, my elder sister Qin Ruoyan, without getting a marriage certificate, it is barely possible...

But she is definitely not a good match for Xiang Lingying, a young lady who will definitely have a place in politics in the future!

In order to cut the Gordian knot, Qin Ruoshuang prepared to have a face-to-face discussion with Xiang Lingying.

And relying on the eloquence he had developed from arguing with his sister since childhood, he directly persuaded her to give up.

Do you understand what is a good match?

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a hint of a smile, and she felt that "the eldest lady versus the second lady, the advantage is in my hands", and she was full of confidence at the moment.

Qin Ruoshuang never thought that one day she would feel so satisfied with her identity as the second young lady of the Qin family.

"me……"

He put down the bone stick in his hand, lowered his head to look at the mutton pieces that were constantly rolling in the alloy pot, and spoke hesitantly.

But after hesitating for a long time, she still whispered under Qin Ruoshuang's silent gaze: "I like it!"

The reason why he hesitated for a long time and didn't say it was not because he was shy about Xiang Lingying.

It was because she had learned from her own maid that "don't reveal your feelings easily"

And the reason why I still say it now.

It was because Xiang Lingying's intuition as a woman told her that she had to start a serious discussion with the second daughter of the Qin family, with whom she had a barely acquaintance!

"Well, but I feel like you and Zhang Liu don't match well in terms of class." Looking at Xiang Lingying, Qin Ruoshuang said in a firm tone, "Because you are the future heir of the Xiang family, and he is just an ordinary boy!"

Chapter 410: Girls who really want to eat but can’t open their mouths…

It was a bit awkward to be looked at by Qin Ruoshuang.

Xiang Lingying subconsciously wanted to interlace the fingers of her left and right hands to ease the shyness in her heart.

But considering that her hands were covered with juice from the lamb shank bones, she had no choice but to give up.

However, after a long silence, Xiang Lingying spoke in a very serious tone: "I will not be the future heir of the Xiang family, my child will be. Dad said that I am not suitable to be the head of the family."

Qin Ruoshuang was completely dumbfounded by her words.

As the second daughter of the Qin family, she has a certain understanding of social relationships, so she is very clear about it.

This is the news that Xiang Lingying told him at this moment.

If it is said to the outside world.

In fact, it is the kind of "secret" that can affect the future of too many people.

The current head of the Xiang family is already forty-three years old.

Although it is still before the fight, in another 20 years, he will be in his 60s, and then he should naturally think about the transfer of power and abdication.

According to common sense, the handover of all Xiang family businesses, relationships, etc. would naturally fall on Xiang Lingying, the only daughter.

Therefore, when many families "place their bets" in advance, they usually do not have any other second choice.

Including the Qin family, their top priority is to establish a relationship with this person.

But at the moment, Xiang Lingying directly said that the future heir of the Xiang family will be chosen from among his own children.
