Chapter 208: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 208: Inviting Guests to the Warm Room, Buying Cattle and Horses (1)
Watching helplessly as Xin'er collapsed on the ground, Mo Yan felt both anxious and angry. She quickly ran over to help her up and pressed her philtrum with her thumb.
After a while, Xin'er slowly regained consciousness, and upon seeing her sister, she tightly grabbed Mo Yan's hand, her face full of fear. "Sister, run, there's a snake, a huge snake!"
Mo Yan patted her back gently to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. The snake has been driven away by sister and won't harm you. Don't be afraid!"
Unexpectedly, before Mo Yan could finish speaking, Xin'er screamed again, "Sister, it's coming again, the big snake is coming again, run, quickly!"
Then, Xin'er shook violently, her pupils dilated, and finally, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted once more.
Mo Yan turned her head and saw the red python propping up half of its body, sticking out its long tongue innocently staring at her.
Mo Yan was furious. If it weren't for holding Xin'er, she would have rushed up and beaten this stupid creature. "Look at what you've done! Get out of here quickly. If you scare people again, I'll teach you a lesson!"
"What's wrong, what's wrong? What happened to Xin'er?"
At this moment, Li Xiu, her niece, and Zhen'er also heard Xin'er's screams and rushed over anxiously.
Mo Yan felt a sense of 'trouble' in her heart. Before she could stop them, Li Xiu, who was at the forefront, had already screamed loudly. Li Yan was crying loudly out of fear, and Zhen'er, who was at the back, didn't cry but his face turned pale, unable to move.
Seeing the red python still not leaving, Mo Yan picked up a nearby stone and threw it, urging, "Hurry up and leave, quickly!"
Although the stone hit it without causing any harm, the red python felt sad. This human treated those two stinky wolves so well, but hit it with something and told it to leave! It felt so pitiful, as no one liked it.
Mo Yan was angry and waved her hand as if shooing away a fly, not moved by its pitiful appearance at all.
Seeing her like this, the red python, who had come to find Mo Yan, was truly sad. Amid Li Xiu's screams, it swam its huge body and quickly disappeared over the courtyard wall.
"Auntie, come and help, let's lift Xin'er onto the bed." Seeing the red python leave, Mo Yan quickly called for Li Xiu's help.
Li Xiu's legs were weak, but seeing Xin'er unconscious, her fear was immediately replaced by worry. She quickly ran over to help Mo Yan carry Xin'er into the room.
Zhen'er and Li Yan hurriedly followed. Li Yan looked frightened and panicked, while Zhen'er, looking at Mo Yan's back, had a flicker of admiration in his eyes.
After laying Xin'er on the bed, Mo Yan quickly fetched water to wash her face and gave her some Spirit Spring water to drink.
"Do we need to find a doctor for Xin'er?" Li Xiu touched Xin'er's pale face, asking worriedly.
Mo Yan hesitated for a moment and shook her head, "There is no doctor in Liuyang Village, and it's not certain if a doctor will come from the city given the distance. We don't have a car at home now, so it's inconvenient to take Xin'er to the city. Let's wait for a while. If Xin'er is not seriously injured, we don't need to see a doctor."
Just being scared by the red python, sleeping for a while should be fine, right? Mo Yan thought uncertainly.
Knowing that this was the only way for now, Li Xiu said, "Then I'll stay here and watch. Xin'er was frightened, she might have nightmares."
"Let me stay. Yanyan was also quite scared just now. Aunt Li, please comfort her." Mo Yan pointed to the trembling Li Yan beside her.
Li Xiu looked at her pale niece with extreme heartache, smiled gratefully at Mo Yan, and led Li Yan out.
Seeing Zhen'er standing still, with an excited look on his face as if he had recovered from the shock, Mo Yan found his reaction a bit strange but didn't pay much attention to him, only worried about Xin'er.
