313 Snake Taming
The news of the Wang Family offering up some secret farming techniques quickly spread throughout the Hu Family Village.
“The Wang Family is a kind family. I’m tired of saying this.”
“Let’s not talk about anything else. I’m willing to work for free to build Dalang’s house.”
“Me too. I think it’s worth it just to drink a few cups of tea from Old Wang’s house.”
“Everyone, get the house ready as soon as possible. Don’t delay the matter of Dalang’s marriage. After it’s built, go and help Old Wang collect his harvest first. I heard that Ah Yu is still studying in town. It’s not good to keep delaying here.”
As everyone spoke, they worked even harder. In fact, they wanted to finish building the house before harvesting the crops.
At the same time, they could see if the fertilizer made from the formula provided by the Wang family was more powerful than they had imagined.
In particular, some families who wanted to grow sugar cane wondered if they could grow sugar cane that was sweeter and more juicy with the fertilizer.
Soon, Wang Dalang’s house was completed. It only took ten days.
During this period, Old Wang’s crops were also harvested and moved into the house.
This time, Old Madam Wang and Little Ah Yu wanted to help, but they were chased away by the Wang family.
They did not even need to hire additional helpers. There were hundreds of people in the village. As long as they could move, they would help Old Wang with the harvest.
The dozens of acres of land only took three days to be completely harvested. Even the dam they shared was filled with the Wang family’s food.
After being placed under the sun for two days, the dried food was stored in the warehouse.
Everyone then hurried to harvest their own crops.
Wang Chuanfu and Wang Dalang naturally felt bad and rushed to help them.
“Dalang, don’t busy yourself with these things anymore. Your house has just been built. You should hurry up and look for a wife.” Someone greeted Wang Dalang with a smile. “By the way, have you taken a liking to a girl? If there’s really no suitable one, my wife’s family still has a few nieces of the same age. Why don’t you go and take a look too?”
In the past few days, Wang Dalang had always been teased by the villagers. Originally, his face would be red, but now that he was used to it, he only replied calmly, “Thank you, Uncle Liu. I’ll follow the arrangements of my family.”
In any case, ever since the incident with the Liang family, Wang Dalang was no longer so enthusiastic about marriage. He felt that the women outside were so dangerous.
He was really afraid that he would marry a female yaksha. It was fine if she bullied him alone, but if she bullied his family, he would really be the sinner of his family.
That morning, Little Ah Yu was at the entrance of the village, watching the lamb train the snakes.
This was also Little Ah Yu’s favorite activity recently.
There were seven or eight large snakes lying on the spacious grass. Their colors were quite good-looking. Now, these snakes were all looking up slightly.
The lamb was pacing in front of them, bleating now and then.
The Spirit Treasure Rat was holding a bamboo cup in its hand. The cup was filled with diluted Myriad Spirit Water that Little Ah Yu had mixed for it.
It was unknown what the lamb said, but one of the snakes suddenly crawled forward a little. The Spirit Treasure Rat placed the bamboo cup in its hand on the ground.
The snake stuck out its tongue and licked the water a few times.
Then, it looked very satisfied. It shook its snake tail and retreated.
The other snakes followed suit.
When all the snakes had drunk the water, they dispersed. They either climbed up the yellow-horned tree at the entrance of the village, lay in the grass at the side, or buried their bodies in the snake cave, revealing their head inconspicuously.
Even though they had seen it several times, the elders sitting under the Yellow Horn Tree still found this scene unbelievable.
Because these snakes that looked very venomous were carrying out the mission of guarding Hu Family Village.
This was all done by Little Ah Yu’s lamb.
After following Little Ah Yu for almost a year, the little lamb had the intelligence of an eight or nine-year-old child and could basically understand human language now.
It was naturally good to use it as an intermediary to tame the snakes.
