Chapter 21 Yuan Si Niang
"You old woman bully people too much! I helped you escape from the palace, but it's okay if you don't thank me. Why are you arresting me now?" Su Siman waved his arm angrily to protest after waking up.
"You have shouted all the way. Do you want me to stuff a rag in your mouth? My wife's patience is limited. Grandma Snake said in a bad voice.
Su Siman closed his mouth in frustration and couldn't get angry. He could only kick the scattered straw on the ground and sighed as he kicked. Grandma Snake played with the fire and ignored her.
It was dark outside, and Su Siman stared at the window with a dull look. Although the weather was cold, Su Siman stubbornly closed his eyes, curled up in the corner of the wall with his arms in his arms, and did not burn the fire.
Grandma Snake only glanced at her coldly and threw half a fragrant roast chicken at her. Su Siman swallowed with difficulty and did not reach out to pick it up.
Although she knew that she suffered so much in the end, there was always a voice in her heart reminding herself that she could not have too much contact with this malicious and unidentified mother-in-law. In addition, there is another thing that she is unforgivable. When she fainted, she caught a glimpse of Huang Fu Chong being injured by the hidden weapon fired by the snake grandma's snake-driving stick.
The snake grandma stared at the flame that was extinguished, looking uncertain, as if recalling something, and sometimes suddenly a low smile and sometimes a sigh. Su Siman opened her eyes in disgust, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the half of the roast chicken on the ground. She licked her lips, curled up her body, rubbed her arms quickly with her hands, and then gritted her teeth and closed her eyes to sleep. After all, it was cold at night. She stayed up all night and didn't fall asleep at all. The next day, her voice was completely hoarse and her forehead had a fever.
"Get up, let's go!" Grandma Snake knocked on the ground with a snake-driving stick and made a banging sound.
Su Siman didn't move, his eyelids were too heavy to open, and he had no strength all over his body. She vaguely felt that something hard knocked on her knee, which was very painful, but she still didn't have the strength to open her eyes, let alone move her feet.
Seeing that her cheeks were red and short of breath, Grandma Snake also felt strange and couldn't help frowning, and the scar on her left cheek also moved twistedly. Grandma Snake grabbed some of the ashes of the fire and put them into the bamboo tube, grabbed a handful of snow outside, stimulated the internal force to melt into snow water, poured into the bamboo tube, and then took a pill from the small porcelain bottle in her arms, pinched Su Siman's chin, stuffed the pill into her mouth, and finally poured the ashey water into her mouth. Su Siman was choked like this and woke up. She opened her mouth and was about to vomit. However, Grandma Snake's eyes were quick and hands were so fast that she did not allow her to vomit. Finally, the pill and gray water were swallowed by her. Finally, when Grandma Snake let go of her hand, Su Siman was so disgusted that she couldn't spit out all her intestines, liver and lungs. She staggered to the door and held the tattered door panel and vomited for a long time. Unfortunately, she couldn't spit out anything but clear her saliva.
For this matter, although his body was fine in the second half of the day, Su Siman was disgusted to death and hated it. He didn't lead the snake grandma's feelings at all. She didn't pay attention to Grandma Snake for several days, so when Grandma Snake asked her any questions on the road, she turned a deaf ear and simply stuffed two balls of cotton into her ears.
Su Siman didn't know where Grandma Snake was going to take her. She tried to sneak away several times on the road, but failed. She was really puzzled. The evil woman was extraordinary and insightful. How was she put into the palace and imprisoned for so long? What's more strange is that she didn't escape from the palace and had to wait for her rescue. She thought there must be an inside story. Although Su Siman was curious, he was unwilling to take the initiative to break the cold war situation and did not say anything.
After crossing Bianyao City and then Huanshui, you will arrive at the south of the Yangtze River.
There was a little episode when crossing Huanshui. The rowing man was obviously blind. Seeing that the boat was an old woman with a crutch and a pale and weak young girl, he had evil intentions. I put ecze in the tea and wanted to fascinate the two. What a person the snake grandma was. She only smelled the smell from afar and immediately sensed the strangeness. She quietly knocked over the tea bowl in Su Siman's hand and stared at Su Siman angrily. When the father drove the boat to the middle of the river, he saw that the two people in the cabin were still sitting. Finally, he couldn't stand it and took action.
The father-in-law was not an opponent. He blew a sharp whistle, abandoned the boat, and plunged into the water. Grandma Snake sent several hidden weapons with hooks at the top of the five edges in a row. She saw a stream of red water emerging from the water more than ten feet away, and Grandma Snake stopped her hand.
"Go boating." Grandma Snake pointed to the oar and said slowly to Susman sitting opposite.
"You have to draw your own." Su Siman rolled his eyes.
"Are you scratching? Believe it or not, I will throw you into the water and ask you to take a cold shower on a cold day? Grandma Snake pulled the corners of her mouth, revealing a few white teeth, and the scar on her face twisted ferociously.
Su Siman's back vest was cold and his whole body was a little creepy. The man laughed so horrible... She had to get up reluctantly, slowly got out of the cabin, waved her little arm and rowed her oars.
The river is full of blue water, and you can't see the shore at a glance. Not far ahead, there is a small island alone on the surface of the water. At first glance, it looks like a giant duckweed. The small continent is full of weeds, gray and not angry.
Su Siman muttered in her heart that the waters of Huanshui are wide, and her sense of direction is not good. Once she goes in the wrong direction, she doesn't know when she can cross the other side? She looked at the small continent floating on the water and faintly saw that there seemed to be some movement. When she looked carefully, the weeds on the small island did not seem to have changed. Just as she thought she was dazzling herself, she suddenly saw a small boat coming out of the small island, followed by the second one, both of which came quickly towards her side.
"Hey, look, someone is coming!" Su Siman waved nervously to the cabin. She had a bad feeling in her heart that the person opposite may be with the man just now.
When Grandma Snake heard this, she quickly got up to see that the two ships were only more than ten feet away from them.
Susman has clearly heard their voices.
I only heard a person anxiously point to the water not far away and say, "Brother, no, I see the third brother!" The water around him is dark. It must be poisoned!"
When the other person on the boat heard this, he also looked in the direction of his finger, shouted in pain, and also plunged into the water, splashing a cluster of waves, and the water immediately recovered as before, with blue waves and the water.
Su Siman was a little dumbfounded and forgot to paddle.
Grandma Snake looked coldly at what happened in front of her and frowned slightly.
After a while, the man who plunged into the water came out of the water. His body was already near Xiaozhou. He held the person who had been injured by the snake grandma in one hand. The man seemed to be motionless. As if he were dead, he waved to the person who remained on the ship and shouted: "Second brother, run away! It's Yuan Si Niang!" There was endless fear in the voice. When the man on the boat heard this, he didn't know whether he was scared or nervous. The hull shook, plunged into the water and disappeared into the vast blue waves.
Grandma Snake stood in the bow with her arms in her arms and snorted coldly, without murder. If she wants to kill people, it is effortless for her to kill someone within ten feet.
"You...is your hidden weapon poisonous?" Su Siman came back to his senses for a long time.
Grandma Snake returned to the cabin with a snake-driving stick and ignored her.
Su Simman simply followed in and asked again anxiously, "Is it poisonous? Answer me!"
"Didn't you see it already?" Grandma Snake stroked the black and bright snake-exorcist stick and wrote lightly.
"I ask you, did you hurt Huang Fu Chong that day?"
Grandma Snake glanced at her disdainfully and sneered: "Why, he was injured. Are you heartbroken?"
"Bulls!" Su Siman almost roared and said, "It's despicable and shameless to hurt people with hidden weapons!"
"Ha ha, say that my wife is despicable and shameless, but who used the hidden weapon first?" Grandma Snake smiled.
Su Siman was angry and rolled his eyes.
"Why don't you go boating? Do you want to blow the cold wind on the river on the boat?"
rolling his eyes again, Su Siman spread his hands and said hatefully, "I don't have the strength to row yourself. I'd rather blow the cold wind and freeze to death than be with you, a vicious old woman.
Grandma Snake was not angry, but said unwarmly, "It's really the same bad temper as your mother's short-lived ghost." Yan Bi got up and went to paddle at the bow of the boat.
When Su Siman heard this, his curiosity was aroused and he couldn't help asking, "Do you know my mother?"
"When we grew up together, we should not only know each other, but also be familiar." Grandma Snake sighed faintly.
"Can you tell me?"
Grandma Snake was silent for a long time and said nothing. Su Siman looked at her slightly ricke figure and couldn't see her facial expression in the backlight, but it could be guessed that she should be recalling.
"It's okay to tell you. Anyway, your mother is dead. After all, I won, hahahaha--" Grandma Snake smiled and slapped the starboard of the ship. Su Siman obviously felt that the hull vibrated violently a few times. She held the sitting board tightly, and her heart contracted violently for no reason.
"In those years, your mother secretly fell in love with Huangfu, the eldest brother of Mubai Yaotang, but she didn't know that he had a private life with me and had a child. Your mother is a shameless bitch. She has already made a marriage contract with my eldest brother, but she always secretly sends autumn waves to Huangfu. I hate that Huangfu was attracted by her beauty and wanted to betray me and secretly hooked up with Zhao Diefei. At that time, I was so angry that I wanted to kill Zhao Diefei, a little bitch, on the spot, but it was hateful. When I got the news, I was already more than three months pregnant. In order to avoid people's ears and eyes, I was not in Yaoyun Villa in the north of Bingzhou. After several months in isolation, when I gave birth to A Ling and raised my body, when I went down the mountain and planned to kill my rival, Zhao Diefei happened to be sent to Runan to collect medicine and didn't meet me. Because I missed A Ling, I didn't go to Runan to look for her. I planned to go to Yaoyun Villa to have a look. I also told Huangfu that he already had a son. By the way, I asked about the recent situation of the family, and then returned directly to Bingzhou.
"It was also when I went down the mountain that my mother died of illness because she was overthinking about my missing daughter. And I didn't even dare to see her for the last time as my daughter. I didn't have the face to go home again. If my father knows that I have a child out of wedlock, he must kill me. Thanks to A Ling, I survived those difficult days. Since then, I have lived in the deep mountains with A Ling for several years, which has diluted my resentment against Zhao Diefei. I don't think I hated her much at that time, but A Ling was the eldest son and grandson of the Huangfu family, and there was no reason to hide in the mountains and forests. I must let him recognize his ancestors, so after disappearing for five or six years, I returned to Yaoyun Villa with A Ling. But at this time, I found that the whole family had suffered misfortune and all my relatives had been killed. I became the only survivor of that headless debt. Later, I learned that Zhao Diefei was married into the palace by the emperor and was bloodthirsty. Although I can't kill her with my own hands, she is not destined to live long. After all, my eldest brother also took revenge for me. Grandma Snake stared at Su Siman happily. Her eyes were like two sharp blades on her body, and the terrible scar on her left cheek twisted like a centipede, which was extremely ferocious.
Su Siman's back was chilly, and finally he couldn't help interrupting, "Aren't you called Yuan Si Niang?"
"That's my later name. My original name was Yuan Jihua."
