His plain white hands were holding a large flower snake, and blood was dripping from the back of his hands.

Jiang Xiaohua looked at Liu Yong approvingly and said with a smile, "You shrank your head just now, and you grasped the timing very well, otherwise I would not be able to protect you from leaving snake fang marks on your face."

The snake was twisted and broken by seven inches, and it was limp and dead.

Liu Yong saw clearly the bloody back of Jiang Xiaohua's hand, his eyes full of shock.

He looked into Jiang Xiaohua's eyes in disbelief, "But you were bitten by a snake!"

For some reason, Liu Yong became more and more excited as he spoke, "Why did you try to save me when you obviously didn't want to take action!"

Jiang Xiaohua casually dropped the big flower snake and said matter-of-factly, "You are my son now, of course I have to protect you."

There was no choice but to borrow Jiang Xiaohua's body to live a new life and deal with the mess she left.

Liu Yong didn't know what his stepmother was thinking. He jumped up and shouted, "If you are poisoned by snake venom, you will die! Even if you are pretending to be a good person and want to win people's hearts, you won't risk your life!"

Jiang Xiaohua was confused, pretending to be a good person? To win people's hearts?

She raised her eyebrows in understanding. This brat is really good at thinking about her so much!

Jiang Xiaohua changed her mind temporarily and frowned deliberately, "Oh, it's over. I feel dizzy. I'm not really going to die."

Liu Yong was really shocked, and he couldn't care less about his hatred for his stepmother. He grabbed Jiang Xiaohua's hand and stuffed it into his mouth.

While he sucked out the dirty blood and spit it on the ground, he took the time to say angrily:

"Why are you such a stupid woman! You're still whining nonsense after you've been poisoned!"

Jiang Xiaohua held back her laughter and said weakly, "Don't you hate me very much? Why do you want to save me again?"

Liu Yong was startled and looked away, "You were injured because you saved me. I don't want to owe you anything!"

He didn't say all the rest of what was in his heart.

He has not grown up yet and is not strong enough to protect his younger siblings.

This family still needs an adult to support the facade for the time being, even if it is only in name.

Jiang Xiaohua saw through Liu Yong's thoughts, "Actually, you just think it's useful to keep me. In your heart, you want me to die, right? Otherwise, how could you deliberately lure Mrs. Xu to the woods at noon today."

Liu Yong was stunned. He looked panicked and frightened, and finally lowered his head in resignation, "You know everything."

At noon, he went to find something to eat and saw Zhang Dabao stalking Jiang Xiaohua. It seemed like there was nothing good going on at first glance.

But he didn't remind Jiang Xiaohua, let alone stop him face to face.

Liu Yong knew that Mrs. Xu had always been jealous of Jiang Xiaohua's youth and beauty, so he deliberately lured Mr. Xu over just to teach Jiang Xiaohua a lesson.

The truth was as he wished, Jiang Xiaohua was knocked unconscious by Xu.

At this time, Liu Yong knew that he had no way to defend himself, so he clenched the corners of his clothes tightly with his hands, and his forehead was already covered with cold sweat.

It turned out that the stepmother had known the truth for a long time, and she must have been preparing for revenge when she brought him out alone.

Will she beat him as hard as before, or kneel down all night? Or just kill him?

Jiang Xiaohua glanced at Liu Yong and said in a light voice, "But I believe that you did not intend to kill me. After that, Mrs. Xu will eat me. This is a completely unexpected development for you."

Liu Yong raised his head sharply, "Aren't you looking for revenge on me?"

Jiang Xiaohua cleaned the wound in the running water, then applied homemade medicinal powder, then slowly raised her eyes and said: "Seeing that your face is pale with fright, have you been thinking about the torture I will use to deal with you?"

Liu Yong gritted his teeth and refused to answer.

A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. He can only do the work and bear the responsibility!

Jiang Xiaohua winked mischievously, "Actually, this snake is non-venomous. I caught it for tomorrow's breakfast."

Not poisonous? breakfast? This turn was too fast and complicated, and Liu Yong couldn't digest it for a while.

Jiang Xiaohua was amused by his silly expression with his mouth open, and laughed heartily, "You must have been deceived by me. You were very anxious and scared just now, right? In this way, we will be even."

Liu Yong finally reacted, "You! You did it on purpose!"

Jiang Xiaohua picked up the big flower snake and walked back, "I told you everything, revenge."

Liu Yong picked up the iron pot and chased after him while saying, "How childish are you to lie to me for such a thing?"

Jiang Xiaohua made a smile that said, "What can you do to me?" "What else?"

Liu Yongyang stamped his feet.

The little emotion he naturally showed at this moment was what a child should look like.

After Jiang Xiaohua passed the test just now, she was initially relieved about Liu Yong's character.

Although he is a bit scheming and shady, he is not cruel and murderous and does not take human life seriously.

As for the death of the original owner, half of it was an accident, and the other half was evil retribution.

Jiang Xiaohua secretly made up her mind that she would be the one to bring these little brats back to the right path from now on.

Liu Guang and Liu Ming were not asleep yet.

They were all shocked when they saw Jiang Xiaohua coming back carrying a big snake as thick as an arm.

Liu Guang became more courageous and immediately looked closer, "Such a big snake! Where did you pick it up?"

Liu Yong put down the iron pot and said with a stern face, "She didn't pick it up, she caught it."

Jiang Xiaohua raised her chin proudly, "I have no choice but to go out and wash the dishes. Breakfast will be delivered to my door."

Liu Guang's eyes almost popped out of his head in shock, "You, you, you, you caught me? How is this possible!"

In the past, she didn't even dare to catch mice!

Jiang Xiaohua rolled her eyes and said, "Will your elder brother help me lie?"

Liu Guang nodded, "That's true."

The eldest brother hates his stepmother the most, how can he stand with her?

Jiang Xiaohua cut a sharp piece of wood and began to cut open the snake skin.

Although there is a risk of contracting parasites from eating snake meat.

But at a time like this when people are scrambling to eat wild vegetables, being able to eat meat is the most effective way to replenish the calories needed by the body, which means that you can go further than others and have a greater chance of survival.

Jiang Xiaohua carefully washed and sliced ​​the snake meat, pickled it and left it for cooking in the morning.

It's autumn now, and it's cold at night in the mountains. Snake meat won't go bad if left overnight.

Before going to bed, she hung the snake skin on a branch facing the wind.

Such a large snake skin can be used as medicine and can also be used to make musical instruments. It should be sold for a few bucks in the future.

Before dawn the next day, Jiang Xiaohua was awakened by a loud noise.

"The young man picked these wild fruits first! How could you rob them by force?"

"Our village came to this place first, you are an outsider, why don't you get out of here!"

Jiang Xiaohua frowned, opened her eyes and shouted, "Why are you making such a noise! ​​Aren't you going to sleep!"

The surroundings were quiet for a moment, and a few early birds were frightened and flew away with their chirps.

A young man was surrounded by refugees.

He was wearing a slightly faded green cloth robe, dressed like a scholar.

The scholar turned around and saw Jiang Xiaohua, as if he had met a savior, he rushed over with eyes shining.

He first stood still, bowed and bowed, "Young lady is the one who has the final say here, right?"

Being disturbed from her sleep again, Jiang Xiaohua opened her eyes impatiently, murderous intent flashing in her eyes, "Huh?!"
