Jiang Mian and Jiang Hao were still feeling smug, but unexpectedly the green snake was suddenly cut off by A Bei who rushed out. Blood splattered on Jiang Hao's face, and the snake fell to the ground in two pieces, twisting its body.
Jiang Hao touched the snake blood on his face and screamed in fear, "It's blood!"
Ah Bei turned around, leaving only a stern profile, with a cold light flashing in his eyes: "Do you want your other arm to be broken as well?"
Jiang Hao was frightened by Abei's cold tone and trembled all over, and his face became even paler.
He had never expected that Abei's swordsmanship was so superb now, and one of the people he feared the most was Abei. When he heard his threat, he began to tremble uncontrollably.
Jiang Hao stammered in defense, his voice trembling, "I just... I just accidentally slipped."
A hint of understanding flashed across Jiang Nianwei's eyes. She already had the answer to the scene just now in her mind. It was not a slip of the hand, but Jiang Hao did it on purpose.
Seeing this, Jiang Mian felt a little sorry in his heart. If he could really bite Jiang Nianwei, it would be a happy thing for her.
However, since the plan failed, she could only pretend nothing happened and put all the blame on Jiang Hao.
"It's obviously not me..." Jiang Hao wanted to defend himself, but Jiang Mian quickly covered his mouth.
"You're going to be punished anyway," Jiang Mian whispered in his brother's ear, "so you should bear this misfortune alone."
Jiang Nianwei sneered but did not react. She knew everything clearly.
A few years ago, she fainted because of being scared by a snake. Jiang Mian happened to be the only one present, and she was the only one who knew that she was afraid of snakes.
But it doesn't matter. These two people are in the same boat, and she won't let either of them go.
Jiang Lanxu stood aside, unable to suppress his anger. "Jiang Hao, you have repeatedly tried to harm our family. I will never tolerate you again. Just wait and see. I will settle this account with you sooner or later."
After hearing these words, Jiang Hao suddenly felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He felt creepy and regretted listening to his sister's instigation.
Abei quietly went around behind him, then suddenly stretched out his hand and patted him hard on the back.
After this blow, Jiang Hao felt as if he was struck by lightning. His internal organs seemed to be twisted into a ball at that moment. The severe pain almost made it impossible for him to breathe. If Ah Bei's force had been a little stronger, he would probably have fallen to the ground on the spot and died there.
Jiang Hao didn't dare to hesitate any more at this moment. He hurriedly took a step forward and stayed far away from A Bei and the group of people. He was afraid that A Bei would rush up again and give him a more severe lesson.
Jiang Mian breathed a sigh of relief. Since she had taught Jiang Hao a lesson, she naturally could not be blamed. She looked at her silly brother with pretended concern, and her tone revealed a hint of false heartache, "Brother, are you okay?"
Jiang Hao responded unhappily: "I won't die for now."
Qin Mengru on the side was even more gloating. She wished that her fiancé would die on the spot so that she could get rid of this disgusting engagement. She was still muttering to herself, "What a pair of stupid siblings."
Jiang Mian thought that the matter was over, and he breathed a sigh of relief, then went to rest in a quiet corner.
As the night deepened, everyone gradually fell asleep due to exhaustion.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Mian had a nightmare.
She dreamed that Jiang Nianwei was holding a thick rope tightly in her hand, with a fierce look in her eyes, and suddenly strangled her neck.
After having her neck tightly strangled, the feeling of suffocation made her terrified and she could hardly breathe. Suddenly she woke up from her dream, her heart still pounding.
Jiang Mian's hands were trembling, and he instinctively touched his neck, but it felt unusually cold and smooth, as if something was tightly attached to him.
She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a snake with its tongue spitting out was wrapped around her neck. The cold and slippery touch made her shudder.
Not only that, in the bright afterglow, she saw that there were not just one snake around her, but more than a dozen snakes lurking around her. Jiang Mian was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe.
She carefully maintained that posture, not daring to move at all, for fear of alarming them and getting bitten by them. Her mind was always in a state of high tension.
It was not until the sky gradually turned pale and the first ray of sunlight fell on the ground that Jiang Hao's exclamation broke the tranquility of the early morning.
He looked at the densely packed snakes around Jiang Mian in shock, "Why are there so many snakes around you?"
But Jiang Mian didn't dare to speak, because there was a snake in front of her staring at her mouth. As long as she spoke, it might alarm the snake.
Then, Ah Bei picked up a snake and threw it towards Jiang Mian without hesitation. Ah Bei's eyes were as cold as ice. He opened his thin lips and said coldly, "If you dare to bully the young lady, you will die without a burial place."
At this moment, Jiang Mian just woke up from her dream. She finally realized that it was all done by Abei, and Abei only listened to Jiang Nianwei. It must be that vicious woman who did it!
Qin Ziqian and Jiang Hao took a lot of effort to catch all the snakes around her. Only after the last snake was taken away from her body did Jiang Mian finally dare to cry out loud.
She threw herself into Qin Ziqian's arms, tears falling like pearls from a broken string, sobbing and choking, "It was so scary, I've never experienced such a terrifying moment, I thought I... I was really going to die, Ziqian, you saw it with your own eyes, what kind of person is my cousin? I just played a little joke on her, and she actually let her men treat me like this."
Qin Ziqian stroked her back gently and echoed, "She is the kind of narrow-minded person who will take revenge for any slight."
Before she finished her words, a snake that had escaped suddenly jumped out from under Jiang Mian's skirt, quickly attacked her lips and bit them.
The sudden stinging pain woke Jiang Mian up instantly. She cried out in surprise: "Ah! It hurts! What is biting me!"
Jiang Nianwei's eyes fell coldly on Jiang Mian's mouth, "It's a poisonous snake, my dear cousin, you don't have a few days to live, no, it should be a few hours."
She widened her eyes in fear, tears welling up in her eyes, and her voice trembled uncontrollably: "Ziqian, I'm really going to die. I'm afraid we are destined to never be able to spend the rest of our lives together and become real husband and wife."
Jiang Nianwei naturally didn't have the time to watch the affectionate relationship between the "sisters", so she packed up her things and prepared to leave.
Jiang Nianwei knew that the snake was not poisonous, but her cousin was too arrogant and needed to be taught a lesson, so that she would not go too far and provoke her again and again.
Seeing that the large group of people were about to leave, Jiang Mian's heart was filled with fear and torment, but she did not dare to delay any longer. She held back her tears, choked with sobs and kept up with the team, unable to speak of her pain.
Half a day later, her lips had swollen like two sausages, and her former cute look was gone.
And Qin Ziqian, who had once made a solemn vow to her, was now avoiding her as much as possible.
The fear of death shrouded her heart, and Jiang Mian thought she was about to die.
But after a few days, the swelling on her lips subsided, and she still did not die from the poison. Only then did she realize that it was not a poisonous snake at all, and Jiang Nianwei had tricked her.
Although she was physically fine, the suffering and torment she had experienced in the past few days were engraved on her heart like a brand.
She also witnessed the cold eyes of the people around her. After experiencing all this, she finally realized that Qin Ziqian, whom she once thought she could rely on, was not as reliable as she imagined.
The only mother she could rely on was also sent to jail by her own hands. But it was too late to regret now, and she would have to live in regret for the rest of her life.
……
The experienced old officer narrowed his eyes, lowered his head to calculate for a while, then raised his head and said with some certainty in his tone: "Don't worry, as long as we can hold on for another seven days or so, we can step out of this dense forest."
When everyone heard this, the heavy haze in their hearts seemed to be blown away a little.
Before arriving at the legendary desolate Yazhou, everyone was already exhausted by the hardships along the way.
Thinking of being exiled to such a dangerous place, everyone couldn't help but feel a deep despair in their hearts - are they really going to spend the rest of their lives in agony worse than death?
However, as long as you are alive, there is still a glimmer of hope. If you die, there will be nothing left.
Everyone gritted their teeth, endured the physical and mental fatigue and pain, and continued to move forward with difficulty.
Jiang Nianwei's thoughts were drifting away, and she couldn't help but imagine what Yazhou looked like now.
Suddenly, the usually lively little sister Jiang Siyu's face suddenly changed. At this moment, she covered her stomach with a look of pain, and there seemed to be some sadness hidden between her brows.
Jiang Nianwei asked with concern: "Siyu, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Siyu shook her head stubbornly, pouted her lips, and said while enduring the pain: "Sister, I'm really fine. I can still walk."
It was not until she was in so much pain that beads of sweat began to form on her forehead that Jing Qiudie asked Jiang Nianwei for help in a hurry, "Nianwei, there's something wrong with your little sister, can you please go and see what's wrong with her?"
Jiang Siyu still kept her lips tightly closed, not uttering a word.
Jiang Nianwei observed her expression and clearly felt that she was hiding an unspeakable secret in her heart.
So she gently pulled Jiang Siyu aside, her voice low and gentle: "We are sisters, is there anything you can't tell me?"
Jiang Siyu lowered her head, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, and she looked ready to die. "Sister, I... I feel like I'm going to die."
Jiang Nianwei's heart trembled, and her brows frowned slightly, "Why do you say that? Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"
Jiang Siyu was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "I have been bleeding and my stomach is in unbearable pain. Sister, do you think I am going to die soon? Don't tell my parents about this. They will definitely be sad if they know. It's a pity that I haven't seen Brother Chen grow up, nor have I seen my second brother again. I am only fifteen years old and I am going to die, wuwuwu."
After saying this, she began to cry quietly, with a shadow covering her face.
Jiang Nianwei thought about it for a moment, and then suddenly realized that her younger sister might have her period. In addition, the house search happened suddenly, and no one taught her carefully along the way, so she was frightened and panicked.
She covered her mouth and chuckled, and said softly, "Don't be afraid. This is just a necessary part of a woman's growth. You will be fine, and you won't die."
Jiang Nianwei also has her period every month, so she has stockpiled a lot of menstrual belts before. This time she can teach her younger sister some physiological knowledge.
Jiang Siyu felt confused, so Jiang Nianwei asked her to sit in the carriage and began to explain patiently, "Your period means that your body has matured, so you will bleed inside. Don't be afraid, you can use this in the future."
These menstrual belts have been carefully improved by her. Compared with modern sanitary napkins, although they lack the support of high technology, they are probably the best to use at this time.
Jiang Nianwei chose the fabric with the best water absorption performance and mixed it with wood ash, straw paper and cotton. This not only improved the absorption capacity, but also made the entire menstrual belt more comfortable.
At this time, there were only the eldest sister-in-law holding the child in the carriage, Nanny Liu, the mother, and the two of them. They were all women. The little baby couldn't understand, but it could be ignored, so Jiang Nianwei didn't avoid it.
Jing Qiudie sighed softly, and the worry in her heart seemed to dissipate a little with this sigh. "I really worried too much. I thought something happened to Siyu, but I didn't expect that she just grew up."
The eldest sister-in-law covered her mouth and laughed, "Don't be afraid, little sister, we women are all like this."
Jiang Siyu was so ashamed of this misunderstanding that she lowered her head, stroked her belly with both hands, frowned, and said in a voice full of pain and confusion: "But, sister, why does my stomach hurt so much all of a sudden? It's unbearable."
The pain she described was probably dysmenorrhea. Although dysmenorrhea is not a disease, the pain can be fatal. Jiang Nianwei herself has suffered from it and knows how serious it is.
Fortunately, medicines can be exchanged in the space now. In addition to the ones exchanged last time, painkillers should also be able to be exchanged in the space pharmacy. If my little sister is really in unbearable pain, then give her a pill to temporarily relieve the unbearable pain.
Jiang Nianwei pondered in her heart, but on the surface she remained calm. She gently comforted Jiang Siyu, saying, "Some people feel pain during menstruation, but some do not. Don't worry, I have a way that may help you relieve the pain. Just bear with it for a while, and I will go get it."
When they took a break halfway, Jiang Nianwei boiled some hot water, mixed the painkillers into it, and asked Jiang Siyu to drink it. Sure enough, not long after, the unbearable pain began to ease, and Jiang Siyu's brows finally relaxed.
Taking this opportunity, she took some time to be alone with Jiang Siyu and taught her some ways to protect her own safety.
"Didn't Big Brother teach us a lot of physical fitness last time? If someone dares to touch you in the future, you should immediately use that set of skills to let them know that you are not easy to mess with. Also, didn't I give you a dagger before? Carry it with you. If someone wants to hurt you, just use the dagger to kill them. Don't show mercy. Always consider your own safety first. Do you understand?"
