Chapter 41 Make persistent efforts
Under the temptation of food and going to the capital, life finally calmed down. Although the two little boys always refused to accept themselves, they were much better than digging holes with all their energy at the beginning.

Gu Xiuman is very satisfied with this kind of life, when she is happy, Jiang Yichen is also happy.

Because of the renovation of the private school, he has enjoyed eating and drinking these past few days. Jiang Yichen himself finds it rare. He has no appetite for so many delicacies from mountains and seas in front of him, but now he is being manipulated into wild vegetables by this woman Bobo, the appetite of the beggar chicken was greatly shocked.

Jiang Yichen was in a good mood, and the whole Gao family saw it.

"Thank you, village chief." Gu Manxiu thanked the village chief with a smile. A wild rabbit on the mountain bought half a basket of eggs. There are many wild rabbits in this season, so they are easy to catch, but hens are not easy to raise.

She reached out and touched these round eggs, while thinking about what to do later.

"Why don't you stew a chicken cake?" Gu Manxiu muttered to herself beside the stove: "The shallots in front of the door have also grown up, cut them into fine pieces, spread a layer of lard on the ceramic bowl, put A little white flour, sprinkled with chopped green onions, what else to add..."

Gu Manxiu lifted the lid of the pot while talking, and a green shadow rushed out. She was caught off guard for a moment, and subconsciously fell backwards, tightly protecting half a basket of eggs in her arms.

"snake!"

The emerald and colorful little snake was nestled in the pot at some point, and now it was frightened and jumped straight at Gu Manxiu's face. Although she was startled at first, she quickly calmed down, but at this moment she was protecting the egg with both hands. , unable to free his hands at all, he could only close his eyes subconsciously.

"How should you thank me?" The man's voice with a little smile rang out from beside his ears. Jiang Yichen was still in the yard just now, but when he heard the movement from the kitchen, he ran over quickly, and while turning over and falling, he grabbed the stick. The seven inches of a small snake.

Gu Manxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Isn't it possible to beat wolves, tigers, and bears? How can you be afraid of a snake?"

Gao Changhe spoke slowly and sarcastically. Since he knew that his stepmother seemed weak, but could kill wolves with bare hands, he restrained a lot, but he never gave in in words.

Gao Yuanshan also silently echoed: "It is said that snakes only bite wicked people."

"..." Gu Manxiu suddenly smiled at them softly, not to mention the two Gao family brothers who were watching the fun all the time, he didn't expect it.

I saw Gu Manxiu put down the egg slowly, covered it with a piece of blue floral cloth, rubbed the egg several times like coaxing a child, then stood up slowly, and picked up the fire stick beside her.

Gao Changhe turned his head and ran away. Gu Manxiu held the fire stick in his bare hands, and smiled softly and shyly: "What are you running, carefully fell!"

Even Gao Yuanshan was a little apprehensive now, why did this woman smile so creepily.

After packing up the two little bastards, Gu Manxiu finally steamed the chicken cake.

The two brothers saw the scary snake just now, and their stepmother stroked its head. The knife cut off the head from a position of seven inches, and then the tip of the knife was accurately inserted into the snake's belly. belly.

With this virtuous smile, Gu Manxiu cut the poor little snake unhurriedly, then smiled and said to Gao Xiaoyue: "Let's eat snake soup later!"

The aroma of chicken cake and snake soup, along the cracks of the stove, permeated the whole room.

Jiang Yichen and the brothers and sisters of the Gao family ate deliciously, but Gu Manxiu was thinking about other things.

Winter is coming soon, and the animals on the mountain have to hibernate and hibernate. It seems that it is time to hunt more prey to make bacon and store food for winter.

Otherwise, going up the mountain in winter would freeze to death. I put down my chopsticks before eating two bites, and suddenly the system reminded me.

"Gao Xiaoyue's favorability is 60.00%, I hope the host will continue to work hard."

Seeing the little girl drooling over the chicken cake and sticking out her tongue to lick the gluttonous food beside the bowl, Gu Manxiu smiled sincerely.

After eating, Jiang Yichen got up to say goodbye, Gu Manxiu noticed that he had already packed his bags, and felt strange.

This person is not like a man in the country, and the bearing on her body is beyond the reach of ordinary teachers. With her eyesight as a special soldier, she must be a young master from a wealthy village with this graceful and luxurious temperament, and Gu Manxiu has always relied on it. at their house...

"Yichen, I said that if you leave the capital for a while if you have nothing to do, you will lose a lot of interest in the world."

The capital is the most prosperous. Next to the carved and jade-built painting workshop is the moat that surrounds the capital. This place seems to be marinated by the aroma of wine, and there are endless sounds. Even if you are standing by the river, the fragrance of wine is also intoxicating.

Gu Manxiu was dressed in commoner clothes, pretending to be a trafficker, displaying some melons and fruits brought from the countryside, but her eyes never left Jiang Yichen on the painting boat.

"It's just some vulgar things in the world." Jiang Yichen played with the white jade porcelain wine glass, lowered his eyes, there were noble ladies enjoying the scenery by the lake, wearing gorgeous silk and satin neon clothes, he stared at the clothes on people's bodies, thinking Suddenly, a woman's figure appeared in the room.

If Gu Manxiu wore such clothes, she should be bright and charming.

"That's wrong!" The friend opposite him laughed wildly, but he didn't know what to say in a low voice.

Seeing this scene, Gu Manxiu clenched his fists tightly, his nails seemed to sink into his flesh. He is not a fool, this boat can be worth her year's income in one day, but what people don't understand is that someone like Jiang Yichen , why should you wrong yourself and lurk beside them.

Jiang Yichen stayed in the capital for a day before returning to the village. Although Gu Manxiu followed him, he didn't let him notice along the way, but felt a little chilled.

"What's for dinner today?" Jiang Yichen walked into Gao's house again, but suddenly found a woman sitting on the porch with a cold face, watching him quietly.

"Our temple here is small, and we can't afford the son of a family from the capital."

Jiang Yichen is not a stupid ordinary person, he immediately understood the woman's intention: "Are you following me?"

"Under the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly? If you come to my house, I will naturally know your identity." Gu Manxiu was still smiling all over her face at this time, but her eyes seemed to be filled with ice that would not melt for thousands of years, and the coldness penetrated: " Are you going to say it or not?"

"..." Jiang Yichen frowned, and explained for the first time: "I didn't intend to harm you."

"That's why I won't say it!"

Jiang Yichen was speechless for a while, he could only watch the woman get up silently and go back to the room, feeling suddenly strange in his heart.

The brothers and sisters of the Gao family lived comfortably, but suddenly found that the past few days were unusual. Jiang Yichen seemed to be angry with his stepmother, and the two ignored each other, but they had a tacit understanding.
