There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 407 Entering the Deep Mountains, Encountering the Wind and Snow (Part [-])

Li Peiyu snorted coldly, "Who told those people to make endless noises? If they continue to play, it will be dark."

Mrs. Li instantly understood what her daughter was thinking.

She said, "Everything is ready at your father's place. Since you are fine, let's go. It's cloudy today, and there may be a snowstorm at night. It just so happens that this is an excuse to stay at Mu's village."

It's good when there's wind and snow, and it's good to stay in the wind and snow, "Well, I'll pack up and set off." Li Peiyu said with a smile.

After noon, the sky became more gloomy.

A large carriage from the Li family and two entourages on horseback set off from the west gate and galloped towards Nanshan.

In the carriage, sat Master Li Er, Li Peiyu and her maid.

"After meeting Mu Xuan, mention being a father a lot." Second Master Li said while pinching the tip of his beard.

Li Peiyu replied absent-mindedly, "Understood, Dad."

This perfunctory answer made Master Li Er very dissatisfied.

But the daughter can't be cruel again, Master Li Er was so angry that he breathed heavily and didn't want to talk more.

That night, after he was beaten up by Luo Cheng, he asked his servant to report the case to the magistrate's yamen overnight.

But who knows, the prefect of Yuezhou doesn't care about it at all.

Regardless of the matter, he also kicked out the servant, and said that if he dared to report such a trivial matter to the Yamen, the person who complained would be severely punished.

This obviously means that the prefect of Yuezhou is protecting Luo Cheng!
Yesterday my daughter went shopping with Mu Xuan, and met Li Jiaoniang and that silly son.

The idiot's son went crazy and asked his daughter to kneel in the street, but Mu Xuan didn't stop him. Hearing what his daughter said made sense, Mu Xuan was a little afraid of that idiot.

Mu Xuan is the grandson of a third-rank scholar, so he is afraid of a fool?
This is so weird.

Master Li Er couldn't figure out the reason for this, he thought about it, maybe it was because of the Lu family.

Luo Cheng is a relative of the Lu family, and the old lady Lu loves Luo Cheng very much.

And the old lady Lu is the wife of the Duke of Chu, with this status, she can see the official family, and her rank is higher than that of the prefect of Yuezhou. When Grand Master Mu sees the old lady, he has to bow his head and call Mrs. Guogong .

Mu Xuan was afraid of Li Jiaoniang and that idiot, but in fact, he was afraid of the old lady of the Lu family behind them, right?

After all, Mu Xuan has no fame yet.

And no matter what he said, he was a sixth-rank official.

He cooperated with Mu Xuan, so he was afraid that the old lady of the Lu family would fail?
He often talked to his daughter earnestly about his relationship with the Mu family, but she always listened impatiently, and she didn't know if she really understood, or if she listened too much and hated his long-winded words, or didn't she understand and didn't want to listen?

The second master Li was angry that Li Peiyu was too stupid. The same surname was Li, how could that Li Jiaoniang be so smart?

He actually taught himself to be a doctor and even opened a medical clinic!
As for his daughter, she only knows how to eat, eat, and play, and she is always worried that Mu Xuan will not marry her.

The dowry has been paid, why not marry?This daughter is really worrying!
……

Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang set off from the west gate and came to Nanshan.

This is the place where Li Jiaoniang has been to before.

Because the bandit Hu Laoqi often makes trouble here, very few people dare to come to chop firewood and dig herbs. Therefore, there are more herbs on the mountain than other places.

The two parked the carriage in a secluded place at the foot of the mountain, put a bag of candy on the carriage, and let the gray hairy ball guard the carriage.

There is food and a warm nest in the car, and the gray curly ball has no complaints.

It squinted its eyes, lying on its stomach in the wooden basin covered with animal skins, licking the candy comfortably.

That small expression made Luo Cheng jealous, "Humans are not as good as beasts."

Li Jiaoniang put dry food and water in the basket, smiled and touched Luo Cheng's face, "Beasts don't have anyone to sleep with and talk with."

Luo Cheng thought about it, and he was no longer jealous, "Well, I'm not jealous, I have a lady to accompany me." He took Li Jiaoniang's back and put it on his back.

Li Jiaoniang carried an empty bag, ready to pack herbal medicine, and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go. If you keep grinding, it will be dark."

The two grabbed a hatchet in each hand and walked up the mountain.

In addition to carrying a pannier, Luo Cheng also carried a bow and arrow.

Now they are not short of money, Li Jiaoniang can see women's diseases, and many high-ranking and wealthy households take turns to send sedan chairs to pick her up to see the doctor. Passed.

Moreover, he also has a medicinal material business, although he is not as profitable as Li Jiaoniang, since the day he started the medicinal material business, he has already earned a thousand or so.

They didn't need to hunt for a living. He took the bow and arrow to see if he could kill a tiger or leopard and make a tiger-skin cloak for Jiao Niang.

Animal skin cloaks are not common, nor can they be bought for money.

The ones sold on the market are of extremely poor quality, and some are fakes.

There are many herbs on the mountain, most of them are available in Li Jiaoniang's shop.

She avoided common and less valuable herbs and sought out rare and expensive ones.

Luo Cheng also helped to find it, but he didn't know herbs, so Li Jiaoniang gave him the blueprints he had drawn in advance.

He took the blueprints and compared them to find them.

The two of them were lucky, and they dug up the herbs that Li Jiaoniang wanted on the cliff.

"There's half a basket, isn't it enough?" Luo Cheng took off his own basket and shook it, showing it to Li Jiaoniang, "The weather is bad, so we can't go further into the mountains."

Li Jiaoniang looked at the sky and sighed, "The day has changed too fast, I thought it might change at night, but who knows, it's only halfway through the afternoon, and the sky will change."

Luo Cheng didn't plan to hunt for tigers and leopards anymore, if he was trapped in the mountains and forests in a snowstorm, he would suffer a lot.

He can still bear it, but he is worried that Li Jiaoniang will not be able to bear it.

"Go back, it will take another hour to walk down the mountain." Luo Cheng said.

"Yes, back." Li Jiaoniang nodded, threw the shovel and hatchet into the back basket, patted her sleeves and walked down the mountain.

But at this moment, in the dense forest ahead, the cry of a wild animal came.

Luo Cheng's face changed dramatically, "Jiao Niang, that's the cry of a leopard!"

Li Jiaoniang was excited, "Brother Luo Cheng, where are the bows and arrows? Let's catch the leopard!"

Luo Cheng said with a dark face, "The leopard is fierce, you hide first, I'll catch the leopard!" He looked up, "Hide in this tree. Leopards can also climb trees, so don't make a sound after you hide."

He was still disappointed that he couldn't find the beast, but unexpectedly, he encountered it when he went down the mountain.

"Brother Luo Cheng, I can also catch wild beasts, let's catch them together." Li Jiaoniang took down the hatchet from her back basket and held it in her hand, ready to fight.

Luo Cheng hugged her and put her on the tree fork, and shouted, "Climb the tree and sit on it! If you don't obey me, go back and deal with you!"

He also said to clean her up, but he never cleaned her up once!

"Can you beat it? I heard the sound, and there are more than one leopard!" Li Jiaoniang narrowed her eyes and looked in the direction of the sound.

"I'll be careful!" Luo Cheng took off his pannier and hung it on the tree, took down the hatchet in his hand, and stared ahead vigilantly.

The leopard hadn't seen it yet, but the sound was getting closer.

Li Jiaoniang said at this time, "Brother Luo Cheng, give me some stones, I will sit on a tree and beat the leopard."

It was only then that Luo Cheng remembered that Li Jiaoniang was born with a good eye for throwing, within a hundred steps, she never missed where she wanted to throw.

"Okay, you wait."

He found some stones in the haystack and handed them to Li Jiaoniang.

Li Jiaoniang packed them all in her pannier.

She did not sit idle on the tree, broke off some branches, and sharpened the hatchet for use.

Luo Cheng found a high slope, and with a bow and arrow, he waited for the leopard.

After a while, the leopard really came.

But it surprised them both.

"Brother Luo Cheng, be careful! There are a lot of leopards, three!" Li Jiaoniang, who was standing higher up, reminded Luo Cheng in a low voice.

Is this the leopard family dispatched?

There are two large leopards, one male and one female, plus a smaller male leopard.

The smaller one was almost an adult, but judging by its aura, it was more fierce than the other two.

The leopards are all solo travelers, and they actually met three of them!
I don't know if it's good luck or bad luck!
Luo Cheng also saw it, and reminded her sternly, "Sit on the tree and don't move, I'll deal with them!"

Li Jiaoniang asked in surprise, "Brother Luo Cheng, what are you kidding? Are you able to deal with three leopards by yourself?"

Luo Cheng did not speak, aimed at a leopard, and shot it with an arrow.

He is good at archery and can shoot three arrows in one shot.

The three arrows flew towards the three leopards.

At the same time, the stone in Li Jiaoniang's hand was thrown out quickly.

The rocks were relatively big, and she couldn't hold two of them with one hand, so with two hands, she only threw two of them and smashed them at the two leopards.

But she moved quickly, and then, two more stones flew towards her.

All three leopards were hit, and one fell to the ground directly.

Because Li Jiaoniang's stone hit her forehead, and Luo Cheng's arrow hit her neck again.

Li Jiaoniang said again, "Brother Luo Cheng, hurry up, there are two more! Those two are injured, if you don't hurry up, they will be more vicious when they get angry!"
