Chapter 598 Unexpected result after trial
However, what surprised Ji Xiaoyou again was that the eldest daughter-in-law still didn't respond at all, just looking at her son with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, under the watchful eyes of the eldest daughter-in-law, Xiaoqiang put the cleanly gnawed chicken bones on the table, then picked up the mushrooms and swallowed them in one bite.
The expression is satisfied, and the taste is not bad.
Seeing this, Ji Xiaoyou frowned again and again, and now she was completely confused.
What the hell is going on with this mushroom?
While thinking, I heard Grandma Zhang next to me, asking cautiously: "Xiaoyou, do you three brothers and sisters really not eat chicken?"
"Well! Yes!" Hearing this, Ji Xiaoyou said absently and perfunctorily, "We don't eat chicken, you can eat it!"
At the end of the sentence, Grandma Zhang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and then said: "Well, since you don't eat, then we will not be polite. Let's eat!"
After hearing this, her son and daughter-in-law went to pick up the chicken and mushrooms in the basin with peace of mind.
Even Grandma Zhang's eldest daughter-in-law was the same, but she was not willing to pick up chicken, and ate mushrooms and drank a few mouthfuls of soup.
Then, he gave his son Xiaoqiang a few pieces of smooth chicken, and gently placed them in his bowl.
Seeing him eating contentedly, the eldest daughter-in-law had a motherly smile on her lips.
Now, Ji Xiaoyou was so shocked that she was speechless.
Fortunately, at this time, she lowered her head and pretended to be serious about eating.
Only now, did not show any strangeness.
And Ji Xiaoyou's many times of probing, the final result is that this mushroom...isn't poisonous?
Could it be that the mushrooms on the plate weren't the poisonous nettle mushrooms brought by Zhang's second uncle and Zhang's second aunt?
I was so puzzled in my heart that I couldn't figure it out at all for a while.Therefore, Ji Xiaoyou stopped talking, just lowered her head and ate the food in the bowl dully.
As for Grandma Zhang's family, they ate very happily and were in full swing.
In their hearts, this small pheasant stewed mushroom is the best and most precious thing for entertaining distinguished guests.
That's why before, they were reluctant to take a bite, they just thought that Ji Xiaoyou and his brother and sister could eat first.
But now, since it is known that the three of them "brother and sister" do not eat chicken, Grandma Zhang, a kind family, will eat it with peace of mind.
For those who have not eaten meat for a long time, they are very happy to eat after no psychological burden.
Soon, the meal is over.
Then, Ji Xiaoyou and the three left.
It's just that Ji Xiaoyou stopped suddenly after leaving Grandma Zhang's house two steps away.
Seeing this, Si Yinnan took a step forward, raised his hand, patted her shoulder gently, and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Xiaoyou?"
The expression on Ji Xiaoyou's face was a little dignified, she raised her head, and said slowly: "It's nothing, I just feel that things are a little strange and I don't understand it!"
With the tacit understanding of each other, Si Yinnan immediately guessed what she was thinking and puzzled.
With a low voice, he asked magnetically, "Xiaoyou, the reason why you warned us not to eat vegetables with mushrooms was because the mushrooms are poisonous?"
"That's right!"
Ji Xiaoyou nodded, and then said truthfully, "Before, didn't I go out to get some air? At the back door, I saw the Zhang family's second uncle and the Zhang family's second aunt coming to them with poisonous nettle mushrooms..."
Looking at Si Yinnan and Xia Nantian, Ji Xiaoyou truthfully told what he saw and what he heard.
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Nantian's face immediately darkened, "These two damn old guys have such vicious hearts. We have no grievances with them, but they always want to put us to death. It's disgusting enough."
As he spoke, his fists were clenched "creaking".
There was a chill in his eyes, and his murderous heart suddenly rose.
On the other hand, Si Yinnan was much calmer.
He raised his eyes, glanced at him lightly, and said thoroughly: "Look at the eyes of the second uncle of the Zhang family, and you can tell that he is definitely a person who is extremely greedy for power and position. He has targeted us time and time again. It is obvious that they want to take advantage of our death to bring down the village chief."
"Then he can take his place."
With Si Yinnan's exquisite and ingenious thoughts, there is nowhere to hide the dirty plans of that old fox, the second uncle of the Zhang family.
"Hmph!" Xia Nantian snorted coldly, "Damn him!"
"Okay!" Ji Xiaoyou looked at him and reminded, "Ji Er, don't get too excited. Now, our foundation is not stable, it's not time to move them."
The corner of Xia Nantian's mouth twitched, "..."
Ji Xiaoyou's incomparably natural "Ji Er" slashed at his heart like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, directly making him terrified.
He really doesn't like the name, okay?
"Ah!"
And Si Yinnan who was next to him didn't get offended. After twitching his thin lips twice, he laughed outright.
Seeing this, Xia Nantian's old face stretched even longer.
He glared at Si Yinnan angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "Ji Da, what are you laughing at? Your name sounds much better than mine, huh?"
Si Yinnan's eyes darkened.
Turning his head, Leng Youyou's gaze mercilessly locked on Xia Nantian's body.
Immediately, the two men were not to be outdone, and no one gave way to the other. For a while, the two men just started dating again.
Ji Xiaoyou unceremoniously threw big white eyes at the two of them respectively, with a speechless expression on her face, "Uh..."
However, she quickly adjusted her mood.
"Cough, cough, cough..." After coughing twice, and successfully attracting the attention of the two men, Ji Xiaoyou raised her face and said displeasedly, "Okay, you two men, can you stop talking to a little girl?" Like a child, he's always quarreling, it's a bit serious, okay?"
Almost at the same time when the words came to an end, Si Yinnan and Xia Nantian, as if they had made an agreement, snorted coldly and looked away from each other.
In this world, Ji Xiaoyou is probably the only person who can control these two men.
"Let's put aside the matter of the second uncle of the Zhang family. Now, I am hesitant and puzzled, and it is always difficult to feel at ease."
"Xiaoyou, what you're talking about is why the poisonous nettle mushroom suddenly turned into a non-poisonous mushroom?"
"That's right. At that time, I saw the expressions of Grandma Zhang's eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law. She should have agreed to the exchange terms of Zhang's second uncle and Zhang's second aunt. Why did it suddenly change?"
"It's not easy to know the reason." At this time, Xia Nantian suddenly interjected, "Let's go back secretly, hide in the dark, and eavesdrop, won't it be enough?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaoyou and Si Yinnan looked at each other subconsciously.
After meeting eyes briefly, Ji Xiaoyou nodded, "Okay, let's go back now, hide outside the backyard wall, and see if we can gain anything."
Then, Ji Xiaoyou, Si Yinnan, and Xia Nantian left and returned.
Quietly, crouching outside the backyard wall.
After a while, there was indeed movement in the yard, and the sound of footsteps came from far and near.
Immediately afterwards, he followed the wall and stopped,
Then, a female voice lowered her voice cautiously, "Master, why don't you quickly throw away these poisonous mushrooms that hurt people?"
The woman who spoke was indeed Grandma Zhang's eldest daughter-in-law.
"threw?"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, Grandma Zhang's eldest son heaved a sigh of relief, as if something heavy had fallen from his chest.
Then, he rejoiced and said: "You finally made the right choice. Fortunately, you haven't lost your eyes by the interests."
"Master, see what you said."
Grandma Zhang's eldest daughter-in-law glared at him reproachfully, with a gentle tone, "We have been together for so many years, do you still know what kind of person I am? You just think that, my heart is dark?"
"No...no more..." Grandma Zhang's eldest son scratched his head embarrassingly, and said with a dry smile, "I never doubted your kindness. It's just that the bait thrown by the second uncle of the Zhang family is really too big. Besides, it’s what our whole family has been looking forward to for so many years in exchange for a few acres of land with good quality. So...so..."
He hesitated to speak, but finally did not speak out the words of doubt.
"Hey!"
Grandma Zhang's eldest daughter-in-law took a deep look at him, then sighed complicatedly, and opened her mouth slowly.
"At the beginning, I couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken. But after the heartbeat, I knew that if I want to get what I want, I must be worthy of my conscience, and the means used must also be formal channels. Just do it."
"Otherwise, I will be restless in my dreams."
Her words immediately won the incomparable approval of the eldest son.
I saw him take a step forward, stretched out his big arms, pulled her into his arms, and said softly: "Daughter-in-law, you are right. Although we live in poverty, poor people cannot be short-sighted. It must not be dark."
"Ok!"
The eldest daughter-in-law threw her arms around his waist, and the two cuddled intimately for a while.
Then, the eldest daughter-in-law moved her body, broke free from his embrace, raised her hand again, and pushed him twice, "Okay, let's get rid of this bunch of poisonous mushrooms quickly! If mom and the others see it, it will be too late." suffered."
"it is good!"
After Grandma Zhang's eldest son nodded in agreement, the husband and wife left the backyard one after the other.
Now, the surroundings are completely quiet.
After Ji Xiaoyou, Si Yinnan, and Xia Nantian looked at each other, it was inevitable that they would be noticed, and they also left here in a hurry.
Here we are, on a path that no one passes by.
Standing on the side of the road in a daze, Ji Xiaoyou lowered her head, her long eyelashes drooped, and she twisted her black eyebrows, looking a little lonely.
The expression on his face didn't look too good.
Si Yinnan took a step forward, looked at her tenderly, and asked with concern: "Xiaoyou, what's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly in a bad mood?"
"I..." There was a bitterness on Ji Xiaoyou's lips, "Hey! I'm guilty, it's because I saved the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."
"No, it's not your fault!"
Si Yinnan's eyes were doting, and after shaking his head lightly, he comforted her and said, "When encountering such a thing, no matter who it is, they will be suspicious. This is a normal reaction. But..."
After a pause, he added, "Unexpectedly, the innocence and integrity of Grandma Zhang's family are really rare in this world. Especially, in the predicament of being at the bottom and being looked down upon by others , it is even more rare to be able to maintain this true temperament."
