Chapter 26 Beating up the tongue-tied woman
The woman with the long tongue appears again.
That day, they were discussing at Granny Wang's house that Su Xiaoxiao had killed a tiger. The long-tongued woman who had sold a lot of money at the market came back to talk to Granny Wang about herself.
Su Xiaoxiao, who happened to be called out to hold firewood, met Su Xiaoxiao. She hid behind the firewood pile at her house and overheard the conversation between the two people.
People like Granny Wang just gossip with others all day long. The fly didn't bite the seamless egg, so she felt that the tiger Su Xiaoxiao killed had robbed her son, and also beat her son Wang Tieniu violently. She was really angry about this and could never say such evil words. , she felt like she was about to suffocate to death.
The long-tongued woman's surname is Xu. Aunt Xu is a shrewd woman in her own family, and she is also very nosy. The owner of the house, the Li family, has shortcomings, so she is the loudspeaker in the village.
Some people really hate her, but there is nothing you can do about such a villain. The more you avoid her, the more she likes to talk about you behind your back.
This time, she was asked to find a topic to talk about. There was a wild man hiding in Su Xiaoxiao's family. This was not a small matter.
"I'm really not ashamed. I bring all kinds of wild men into my home. I'm a widow, so I can't be so careless about my reputation. It really embarrasses the women in our village!"
Aunt Xu was teasing Su Xiaoxiao with Granny Wang. Su Xiaoxiao shouted loudly: "Hey, Aunt Xu, you are quite free at home. Come over here and talk to me here when you have nothing to do. It seems that you are quite interested in me."
Aunt Xu heard Granny Wang tell her that Su Xiaoxiao called her a woman with a long tongue. She was really angry this time and was very dissatisfied with Su Xiaoxiao.
"Yes, I'm just full, so I came here to treat you well!"
Aunt Xu didn't show any weakness at all, and Su Xiaoxiao jumped over the fence with a smile.
When he came to the courtyard of Granny Wang's house, he said to Aunt Xu and Granny Wang: "Yes, there is a wild man in my family, he is quite handsome. Why are you two old ladies envious of him?"
Aunt Xu was so angry that she said, "Who do you think is the old woman?"
She was most afraid of people saying she was old, so she would directly step forward and pinch Su Xiaoxiao.
When Su Xiaoxiao saw it, she hurriedly hid aside.
"You act like I'm bullying the elderly."
Aunt Xu missed her and almost fell to the ground.
Although she also knew how powerful Su Xiaoxiao was, this person was very stubborn and did not care about that at all. He just slapped Su Xiaoxiao on the mouth.
Su Xiaoxiao dodged again, and this time she fought back. No matter how much, she kicked Aunt Xu in the waist from behind, causing her to stumble.
Aunt Xu threw a dog to eat shit. Unfortunately, there was a chicken coop in front of her. Aunt Xu's head hit the chicken coop directly, causing several chickens to fly out of the chicken coop, and her own head was also stained. Lots of chicken feathers and chicken droppings.
"Su Xiaoxiao!"
When Aunt Xu stood up again, Su Xiaoxiao found her very funny and couldn't help laughing. This was really speechless. It seemed that Aunt Xu was quite miserable now.
Grandma Wang looked on, feeling really funny and a little pitiful for her. Fortunately, the person Su Xiaoxiao beat was not her, otherwise, she really wouldn't know what to do.
She hurriedly advised her, "Two living ancestors, stop fighting. You fought in my house and broke all the things in our house. Who will compensate me?"
Su Xiaoxiao ignored her and saw Aunt Xu standing up and coming over to beat Su Xiaoxiao.
But Su Xiaoxiao still looks so difficult to mess with.
"How dare you hit me!"
"Why don't I dare to hit you? Who told you that you like to be bitten by someone else's tongue!"
"Oh my, Aunt Xu, are you always so ignorant of hygiene? You smell so stinky!"
Su Xiaoxiao pretended to be disgusted, "Do I smell?"
Aunt Xu quickly smelled her body and found that it smelled like chicken feces, very unpleasant, and there were chicken feathers everywhere on her body.
Aunt Wang also came over to persuade: "It's better to go home and wash up quickly!" Aunt Xu had no choice but to look at Su Xiaoxiao fiercely and turned around and left.
Su Xiaoxiao turned around and rolled her eyes at Granny Wang, who shrank her neck in fright.
Back home, Su Xiaoxiao's mood was not affected at all.
She found that Dabao and Xiaobao had already carefully washed the dug wild vegetables and had almost finished lighting the fire in the kitchen.
She found a cup of hot water on the table that was full and steaming.
"Mom, I heard you arguing with others outside. You must be thirsty. I boiled water and poured you a cup."
"So good!" Su Xiaoxiao reached over and touched his head.
It seems that the child has grown up and understands the hardships of being a mother.
"It's not hard for me to quarrel, and it's not hard to fight either."
In fact, Su Xiaoxiao didn't feel hard at all. On the contrary, she felt very happy. She hadn't been so happy for a long time. She could scold whomever she wanted and beat whomever she wanted.
"Mom, can we raise these pheasants you shot?"
Dabao asked Su Xiaoxiao very obediently.
"That way, we'll have a lot of eggs."
"Forget it, wait until my mother goes to town in a few days to buy some chicks and bring them back for you to raise. These pheasants can't lay eggs!"
"Really?"
Dabao asked very puzzledly.
"Yes, pheasant meat is delicious."
Su Xiaoxiao said: "We eat pheasant today!"
After she neatly put the pheasant in the basin, she poured hot water on it, and a disgusting smell immediately came out.
For the first time, Saburo in the room smelled the smell that comes from the fur of animals when hot water is poured on it.
Su Xiaoxiao saw that Sanlang looked disgusted, and the two children also frowned and covered their noses with their little hands.
"What does this smell like?"
"You two go inside and learn how to read Chinese characters from Saburo! I'll leave this place to you!"
Su Xiaoxiao said and closed the door of the back room. When she closed the door, Su Xiaoxiao saw Sanlang looking at herself with a very strange look.
Su Xiaoxiao removed the pheasant feathers bit by bit and washed them. The feathers were just right for a feather duster.
In fact, the meat of pheasants is more delicious than chickens raised at home. The meat tastes more fragrant. After all, pheasants can fly unlike those free-range chickens.
Su Xiaoxiao stewed one pheasant, and she decided to make the other one into a bacon chicken.
The cured duck she had eaten a few days ago was quite delicious, so Xun Si thought that she would make it herself this time.
She dug out the internal organs of the pheasant, cleaned the insides, cut off the chicken's nails, and hung the chicken from the rafter.
She has rubbed salt all over her body. Now Su Xiaoxiao can make coarse salt by herself, no matter how much salt she uses, she doesn't feel bad.
In fact, the method of making bacon chicken is not easy. It requires repeated several steps, and it is said that you have to find the most ventilated place to dry it.
