Farmer’s Blessed Girl

The four dismounted, led the horse to the grass and tied it to a tree.

Today is only the eighth day of the first lunar month, and most people are still celebrating the New Year at home, and businessmen are also celebrating the New Year, so there is no one on the official road at this time.

Man Bao took off her cloak and placed it directly on the tree. She glanced into the forest and said, "Let's find some firewood."

Bai Shan nodded, and also took off his cloak and put it on the tree.

The two guards looked at each other, one followed them in, the other stayed to watch the horses and things.

This is a wild forest, and it is very messy. Bai Shan and Man Bao walked for a while. When they saw that there were many withered weeds on the ground, they pulled some hay to use as a fire.

This forest seems to be often stopped by people, so there are not many dead branches in the book. They walked for a long time before they saw dead branches.

Both of them had done the work of breaking dead branches and picking up firewood. Bai Shan was taller than Man Bao, so he jumped up and broke the dead branches and threw them to her. Man Bao pulled some thatch into a rope and put the firewood on it.

The guards who followed them in also stretched out their hands and pulled dead branches.

Man Bao picked up the dead branches, picked them up, and followed Keke's explanation to dig a hole under a big tree.

She slowly eased her movements. After digging the hole, she subconsciously glanced at the guard first. Seeing that he was facing away from her, he had already walked some distance and pulled dead branches, so she held a branch and put it into the hole. inside.

Bai Shancai tore off a dead branch and threw it on the ground, and subconsciously went to find Man Bao, only to see her nervously and cautiously pulling the dead branch out.

He was about to step forward when he saw her pulling out a bunch of snakes.

Bai Shan's body stiffened, and he couldn't help staring at her with wide eyes.

Man Bao's body also froze. She swallowed her saliva and stepped back cautiously. Seeing that the snake had woken up, she was shaking her head and slowly stood up. Her stick was still on the snake, and she didn't have time to look back. Guard, just let Keke put away the stick together.

Bai Shan was considering whether to call the guards to save his life, when he saw that the stick in Man Bao's hand disappeared along with the snake at the entrance of the hole.

His pupils shrank, and he took two steps subconsciously, just to block the guard behind him.

The guard still turned his back to them, but it seemed that he hadn't heard their movement for a long time, so he couldn't help but look back.

They saw that their young master was looking at Miss Man with his back to him, and Miss Man was squatting on the ground and didn't know what she was doing.

He smiled and shook his head, turned back and continued to break off his branches without disturbing them.

Bai Shan stared for a long time, making sure that the stick and snake would not appear out of thin air again, then turned his head to glance at the guard, and then stepped forward and squatted beside Man Bao.

Man Bao was shouting with Keke, "Ah ah ah..." until Keke assured that the snake would not stay in the system space, and was directly recorded in the Encyclopedia Museum, which had been transported to the relevant research laboratory by the Encyclopedia Museum, and they were not there at all. After reaching the same spatial dimension, Man Bao stopped "Aah..."

Bai Shan leaned in front of Man Bao and stared at her, "Your face is pale, since you are afraid, why are you going to provoke him?"

Man Bao asked in a low voice, "Have you seen it all?"

Bai Shan nodded.

Man Bao exhaled and said, "It's not what I want, it's what others want."

"Uncle Zhou?"

Man Bao shook his head, "No, it's for someone else."

Bai Shan said: "The underworld is really strange, isn't it a popular gift to send snakes instead of paper money?"

Man Bao:  …

Bai Shan has found a reason for himself, "Also, snakes are yin, can eating snakes increase the power of ghosts?"

Man Bao:  …

"Then shall we find some snakes for Uncle Zhou?"

When Man Bao was about to refuse, Bai Shan said, "But it's too dangerous for us to catch snakes by ourselves. We can ask someone to catch them. There should be people in the countryside who are good at catching snakes, right?"

Man Bao immediately said: "You are right, you can find someone."

Why didn't she think of it for a while?

"But when we buy snakes, will the family know?"

It's okay for Bai Shan to know about this. If others knew, they would definitely not be able to hide it from her parents. Keke's existence can't be told to others.

But if everyone thinks that her father is with her...

Man Bao felt suffocated just thinking about it. Her parents would definitely go crazy when they found out, so this matter must be kept secret.

Bai Shan didn't think this was a problem, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, leave this to me."

The guard pulled a lot of dead branches, and when he turned around, he found that the young master and Miss Man were squatting together with their heads very close to each other and whispering together, he couldn't help but said loudly: "Master, Miss Man, have you seen this enough? ?"

The two of them turned to look together, nodded and said, "It's almost there, we have a lot of people, let's talk a little bit more."

Then continue to gather together and whisper.

The guard scratched his head, and the old lady only said that she would follow Young Master Jin and Miss Man, so that they would not be in danger and that they would not overstep the rules, but getting close and whispering shouldn't be considered overstepping, right?

He turned around hesitantly and continued to break the dead branches.

Bai Shan and Man Bao had already conspired, so they happily got up to sort out the firewood. At this time, Man Bao found that her feet were numb due to being nervous and squatting for too long, and she almost fell on Bai Shan.

Bai Shan half hugged her, and after she slowed down, he helped her to walk back slowly.

Man Bao walked a dozen steps, and after the numbness passed, he and Bai Shan picked up all the firewood on the ground and tied it up.

The three finally dragged four bundles of firewood back home.

The remaining guards quickly rolled up their sleeves to help.

The four of them set up four fires, and they just set up firewood, but they have not yet started the fire.

They waited for a long time and no one came. The guard looked up at the sun, estimated the time and said, "Master, why don't I go take a look?"

Bai Shan nodded, "Go."

The guard rode back to look for it, but he came back in less than a quarter of an hour, with the carriage still far behind.

He reported loudly: "Master, old lady, they are here."

Bai Shan and Man Bao walked to the side of the road hand in hand and waited, while the other guard turned around to make a fire.

The convoy slowly came to the front, walked forward for a while and then stopped, just in the middle of the car parked in front of Bai Shan and the others.

Bai Shan went to help his grandmother and mother, while Man Bao went to help Mr. Zhuang.

Some servants moved a few stools for Mrs. Liu and Mr. Zhuang to sit on, while the others could only squat or sit on the grass.

Wuwulang also stopped the car. Santou Sanya and Sitou had no experience of traveling far, so they all listened to Wuwulang and Manbao and took some food from the car. .

Mrs. Liu took a reheated white steamed bun from Man Bao, took a bite and smiled at Mr. Zhuang: "It's strange, these steamed buns are made in the same way, but what her sister-in-law makes is better than others. People do it better."

Mr. Zhuang smiled and nodded, which was also the one thing he regretted most when he let go of the school.

Man Bao smiled and said, "Grandma Liu can eat as much as she likes. My sister-in-law has cooked a lot for us."

Mrs. Liu nodded with a smile, glanced at the official road and said, "It should be Mianzhou after walking for more than an hour. We will stay in Mianzhou for the night tonight."
