Chapter 302 Reconciliation
"stop!"
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Su Li shouted to stop it.
The giant spider on Li Ma's face was waving its hairy legs and staring at her with its mouth open. If she moved her lips again, it would bite her without hesitation.
Su Li shouted at Ming Min:
"Mingmin, take it back!"
Mingmin bit her lip and a fierce look flashed across her face. She didn't know how her hand moved, but the big spotted spider disappeared.
"Auntie, she scolded me first!"
She raised her hand and pointed at Matron Li, scaring her so much that she took a step back and fell to the ground.
"Mingmin, I saved you by the lake that day, and this is how you repay kindness with hatred?"
Su Li pointed at Huan Ge'er, who was speechless from the pain, and Li Ma, who was trembling on the ground. They were Su Li's wet nurse and family members, and Mingmin's behavior made Su Li very angry.
She could take Mingmin in, but if she did anything to hurt her family, she would punish her without mercy.
"Auntie, I, I..."
Mingmin hesitated for a long time but couldn't say anything.
She escaped from home, and if it weren't for these means, she would have died long ago. Life on the run made her somewhat perverse and paranoid, as if everyone was out to harm her.
Now, seeing the people in the yard looking at her with horrified and disappointed eyes, she finally realized that she might have done something wrong.
This family is clearly different.
Her aunt was really kind to her. Not only did she save her and treat her to fish, she also took her in to stay.
But I don’t have the habit of asking her to apologize!
"Mingmin, if you think we're all enemies, then go ahead. The door's right there, I won't see you off! Before that, remove Huan Ge'er's poison."
Su Li pointed to the gate.
Mingmin became anxious and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Auntie, I didn't mean to hurt you, I just, just..."
She was silent for a long time, gritted her teeth, raised her hand to wipe her tears, walked up and wiped Huan Ge's hand. There was a small cut on Huan Ge'er's wrist, and a small insect ran out of the wound, crawled into her sleeve and disappeared.
She looked at everyone silently, then turned and ran away.
"Brother Huan!"
Su Li grabbed Huan Ge'er's wrist and looked at it. The circle of red rash had disappeared visibly, and Huan Ge'er's complexion finally returned to normal.
Mr. Fei quickly took his pulse and nodded, "It's okay."
"Mom, I'm fine."
Huan Ge'er was breathing heavily, still feeling frightened.
"Mom, the Gu wasn't cast today. It was cast yesterday by the lake."
"???"
Was it then?
Mingmin was such a cautious person! At that time, she ran towards Su Li, but Huan Ge'er grabbed her wrist and kicked her away. But in a moment, she had been poisoned?
"She asked me to come here to help me get rid of the poison. I was curious and wanted to know how powerful this poison was and what it felt like when it attacked. That's why..."
"Snapped!"
Su Li raised her hand and slapped her, and she was stunned after that.
I'm anxious! I'm scared!
I couldn't control it!
Huan Ge'er has this damn weird thirst for knowledge!
"What if something happens to you? Why are you kidding me about your own body? What will happen to your sister and me if something happens to you?"
Seeing that Su Li was really anxious, Huan Ge'er also felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have scared his mother.
"Mom, I'm sorry. I won't do it again next time." Next time, stay away from mom and don't let her see it.
Nanny Li was also so angry that she jumped up and down, and she grabbed Huan Ge'er and started scolding him.
Fortunately, Huan Ge'er was fine now, and Su Li breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the empty courtyard gate, Mingmin had already disappeared.
"Song Tao, get some people to bring her back."
"Yes."
Mingmin didn't actually walk very far, because after just a few steps, she was attracted by a spotted viper in the woods.
When Song Tao found her, she was holding a spotted snake and talking.
Even someone as tough as Song Tao was really shocked.
After returning to the villa, Su Li decided to have a good chat with her.
"Mingmin, Huan'er has already told me about this. I'm sorry, Auntie was too aggressive and didn't ask clearly, so I wrongly blamed you!"
Su Li looked at the bulging pockets beside Mingmin, and thought of the poisonous snake Songtao had told her about. She really didn't dare to get close to Mingmin anymore.
She is most afraid of snakes.
Mingmin felt her frightened look and patted his pocket gently, and the pocket became quiet.
"After I escaped, I walked in the mountains for half a month. I survived by eating snake meat and insects. Don't be afraid, auntie. I have pulled out the fangs of this snake, so it won't bite you anymore."
Mingmin comforted.
"Ah? Oh!"
Su Li, Song Zhi and Song Tao looked at each other.
"Aunt, I don't blame you. I'm just a little envious of Pei Huan, and a little sad."
"envious?"
"Yes! He has a mother like you who cares about him so much, and a father. Although his father is sick and can't move, he is still alive. Unlike me, I have nothing."
He lost his mother when he was born, and now he has lost his father.
When she escaped, the palace was full of rebels killing people. She pushed open a crack in the box and saw her father being slashed in the throat by General Peng and pushed down from a tall building...
The way her aunt was worried about Huan Ge'er just now reminded her of her father.
If her father were still alive, she would still be his little darling. Why would she need to use witchcraft to protect herself? She wouldn't have let her aunt and her family hate her.
"Auntie, I promise I won't play these games anymore. Please don't chase me away. I don't know where to go if I leave here. Okay?"
Faced with Mingmin's flattery, Su Li's heart softened.
He is still a child after all.
Having suffered so much, I am so cautious.
She thought of Huan Ge'er and Xi Jie'er. If the story had unfolded according to the original book, would the brother and sister also be stranded outside and suffering endless hardships?
Su Li had originally had selfish motives in taking Mingmin in. But now, knowing how she had endured so much and remained so strong and unyielding, she felt a little reluctant.
Out of sheer sympathy, she decided to treat her well.
Thinking of this, Su Li touched Mingmin's little face.
"Mingmin, raising Gu is a skill you rely on for survival. Auntie has no right to stop you from doing it. I have only one request. Please be careful and don't hurt anyone in your family."
"family?"
Mingmin was stunned. This word made her feel warm inside.
"Yes! If you are willing, Auntie is your family. And Huan'er, Xi'er, Li Ma, Songzhi and Songtao, and everyone in this village are your family."
"Ok!"
Mingmin nodded heavily.
"As a family member, what do you want to say to Madam Li?"
Nanny Li, who was standing by, looked terrified and waved her hands repeatedly.
"Miss Mingmin, I was so concerned that I scolded you without restraint. I was wrong first. I'm sorry."
Hearing Li Ma's apology, Mingmin jumped down from the couch, grabbed Li Ma's arm, and said:
"Mammy, you called me a little witch, and I called you an old witch. Now we're even, okay? Also, I noticed your eyesight wasn't very good, so I caught a snake when I went out just now. I just took out the snake gall to heal your eyes."
As she spoke, she pulled the spotted snake from the cloth bag at her waist. The snake, as if hypnotized, wrapped itself limply around her hand, letting her twist it around like a twisted dough stick.
Li Ma was so frightened that she screamed "Oh my God" and ran away.
"Mammy, don't go. The snake gallbladder will be more effective if you swallow it alive!"
Watching Mingmin chasing Nanny Li out, Su Li smiled helplessly and shook her head.
