Chapter 017: Feng Shui Takes Turns

The basket was already full, it was still early, and He Peier was not in a hurry to go back, people were wandering around the mountain, and they actually found a waterhole halfway up the mountain.

Most of the pine trees grew on this mountain, and she heard the sound of water from afar, but it took some time to find a place.

This waterhole is about the size of a basketball court, and the stream flows down from the top of the mountain, through the waterhole and then down the cliff, surrounded by large rocks and weeds, the pool is not deep, the bottom is clear, and the fish in it are clearly visible.

He Peier saw the fish inside, and she laughed out loud with joy, she said that she relied on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water to eat the water, as long as she could move her legs, she could starve people.

The bamboo basket in her hand was placed on the stone, although the weather was still a little cold, He Peier couldn't help but pull her trouser leg high and go into the water along the stone. The fish here are big and fat, and it would be beautiful to be able to go back and cook braised fish for dinner.

It turns out that the braised fish is still some distance away from herself, although the water is not deep, but the fish in the water are not stupid, He Peier is on the left, the fish will run to the right, she will go down, the fish will follow the top.

In the end, she also followed the example of those people on TV, and found a branch to make a harpoon, and as a result, the harpoon was made several, and the fish still swam happily in the water, which really her off.

He Peier sat on the stone and twisted her trouser legs, but the fish didn't catch it, but her pants were mostly wet.

Forget it, wait until she comes back tomorrow from the town to buy some fishing nets, and then pack them up.

He Pei'er was calculating what kind of fishing net to buy, when she heard a few clucking roosters not far away.

How could there be chickens in the barren mountains and mountains, slowly moving down from the stones, she quietly stretched out her head to look, and sure enough, she saw a yellow and black pheasant in the grass not far away.

Tsk, this Mangshan is really full of treasures, you can't eat braised fish, it's better to catch a wild ~ chicken and stew the soup, proper game.

The wild ~ chicken didn't notice her, stretched his neck and was drinking.

It seemed that this waterhole was a drinking place for the nearby animals, and He Peier took a fork of a tree, and slowly moved it over with stones and trees as a shield.

Seeing that the delicacy was getting closer and closer, He Peier was overjoyed, holding the tree high and falling fiercely, but she pounced on it.

That damn wild ~ chicken is like having eyes on its back, and her tree girl flies before it touches it.

However, the pheasant ~ didn't fly far, just a few meters.

The most infuriating thing is that the chicken did not rush to leave after flying away, and stood on the haystack and barked at her.

Proper provocation, I didn't catch a fish before, and now I can't catch a chicken, He Peier is also angry, and chases after the tree girl.

A man and a chicken played a chase on the mountainside, and in the end, He Peier fell a few times and the dog gnawed on the mud, her clothes were torn, her hair was scattered, and the pheasant disappeared.

It seems that her backing on the mountain eats the mountain, and the plan of relying on water and draught still needs to be honed.

Seeing that it was getting late, He Peier hung her head and carried the basket down the mountain in frustration, waiting for her to buy tools tomorrow and come back again, and then dig a trap by the waterhole. Isn't it all written in the books, the big bad wolf fell into the hunter's trap, and if this plan didn't work, she really wanted to find a crooked neck tree and hang it.

When He Peier returned home, the ugly mother-in-law had not returned, only Xia Lin was sitting in a wooden wheelchair under the eaves.

It is estimated that her appearance is extremely embarrassed, and Xia Lin saw her pair of sword eyebrows wrinkled deeply.

He Pei'er pulled off a leaf from her hair, and smiled helplessly, "I accidentally fell." ”

She fell hard enough, Xia Lin saw the white arm looming under her broken sleeve, and turned his head back.

He Peier packed herself up, changed her clothes and came out, it was already getting dark outside, and the ugly mother-in-law had returned.

She carried two bundles of firewood on her shoulders and a few herbs in the basket.

He Peier helped her unload her things, glanced at the back basket, and found that it was a few He Shou Wu and some wild mountain mushrooms, these things were not worth two dollars, and they could only be said to be better than nothing.

The herbs and mushrooms He Pei'er were all placed in the dustpan under the eaves to dry, and the wild vegetables and mushrooms she picked were boiled in water at night and mixed with a cold dish.

At dinner in the evening, she told the ugly mother-in-law about going to the town to catch the market tomorrow.

The ugly mother-in-law didn't have anything to sell in her hands, so she didn't plan to go, she just told her to go early and come back early.

The journey to the town is a bit far, it takes more than three hours to walk to the intersection and take the ox cart, He Peier got up early, and after breakfast, she put away the sickle and hoe and put it in the back basket to prepare to go to the town.

Before leaving, the ugly mother-in-law went outside the house to see her off, and even Xia Lin pushed her wheelchair under the eaves.

He Peier smiled at them, in her previous life, she finally went out with an ugly mother-in-law, and she was allowed to go out when she got married in this life, and she really responded to a sentence, what kind of heart you treat others, what kind of heart others will repay you.

He Pei'er didn't wait long at the intersection when an ox cart came to the town.

Qingxi Town has jurisdiction over hundreds of villages, large and small, and gathers every 2, 5, 8, and once a month, almost once every 3 to 4 days. Every household buys and sells on this day, so there are a lot of people on the streets.

The ox cart that He Peier caught up with was not from Xiaxi Village, there were already five or six people sitting on it, and she didn't know any of them. There were two or three aunts who usually liked to gossip and always looked at her, and finally a woman wearing a flower cloth scarf couldn't help it.

"Big sister, I saw you getting on the bus at the intersection over there, are you the Xia family who lives in the Mangshen Temple?"

Although she just got married, she is indeed a member of the Xia family now, He Peier pulled the corners of her mouth and nodded.

When she admitted this, there was immediately a gasp around her.

"It's really the daughter-in-law of the Xia family, it's a pity that such a good-looking big sister has been given a disability."

"yes, I still don't believe it, but now it seems to be true."

"Alas, the stepmother's heart is ruthless."

"Yes, I heard that her own biological daughter is lazy and shameless, and I don't know who will marry her as a daughter-in-law in the future."

"No matter who it is, it's impossible for my family to let such a daughter-in-law enter the door anyway......"

Everyone gossiped, completely thinking that they were a poor victim, He Peier smiled, and did not expect this matter to spread so quickly. In her previous life, she was running away from a man at the wedding banquet, you must know that not only did she not get anything, but she was still the one who was scolded.

It's really feng shui in turns, and she no longer has to lower her head and see people without a face in this life.

The ox cart stopped at the bridge at the entrance of the town, and several aunts chatted all the way, although He Peier didn't have much time to answer, everyone seemed to be familiar with her, and they got out of the car and helped her hand over things.

In fact, people in this era, except for some entanglements of interests, are still kind and down-to-earth.

Usually everyone makes noise about those trivial things, mainly because they are too poor.
