Chapter 490

After Wang An finished drinking the medicine, Mu Xueqing also stopped laughing, but the smile on Mu Xueqing's face did not diminish in the slightest.

Wang An said to Mu Xueqing with great dissatisfaction but helplessness: "What are you laughing at? Do you know what kind of behavior this is? This is called gloating! And gloating at your own man."

Hearing Wang An's words, Mu Xueqing laughed again, the kind that couldn't be stopped.

Then, a scene with a very large contrast appeared in the room: Mu Xueqing was laughing, while Wang An tilted his head, drooped his eyelids, and looked at Mu Xueqing with an expressionless face.

After a while, Mu Xueqing finally endured the laughter and said:

"Don't give me that dead look, I'm laughing so hard my stomach hurts."

It must be said that women are sometimes absolutely unreasonable existences.

No wonder Confucius once said: "Only small people and women are difficult to raise!"

Of course, although these words were said by Confucius, the true meaning is truly difficult for later generations to fathom.

Some people say this is Confucius scolding people, because he compared women and small people to the same category of people.

However, some people also say this is Confucius giving a warning, that is, Confucius is telling the world that when dealing with small people and women, one must have some sense of proportion, because being too close to them is easy to lose etiquette, and being far away is easy to invite resentment.

But don't misunderstand, when Wang An said this sentence, there was only the former meaning, that is, this woman Mu Xueqing is truly unreasonable!

Clearly, it was Mu Xueqing who was laughing at Wang An, but Mu Xueqing pushed the responsibility onto Wang An, blaming Wang An for teasing her into laughing.

When Wang An heard this, he immediately had the feeling of stripping Mu Xueqing naked and then dealing with her on the spot.

But Mu Xueqing was pregnant with Wang An's flesh and blood, and he couldn't do anything... He couldn't hit, couldn't scold, and couldn't do that to her. This feeling was truly uncomfortable.

Just when Wang An was pondering how to teach Mu Xueqing a lesson, Mu Xueqing finally laughed enough, and then he heard Mu Xueqing say:

"It was clearly written on the medicine bottle to take it with water, but you didn't dissolve it with water before drinking. Instead, you had to pour the medicine powder into your mouth first, then drink water, and finally poke it with your hand. Hahahaha, it's the first time I've seen you take medicine like this, hahahaha..."

After Mu Xueqing finished speaking, she laughed loudly again, and while laughing, she imitated the way Wang An was baring his teeth and poking his mouth with his hand just now.

It could be seen that Mu Xueqing was genuinely quite happy at this moment.

However, Wang An was stunned for a moment, mainly because was "take with water" understood by Mu Xueqing like this? But when Wang An recalled the discomfort of taking the medicine just now, and the feeling that there was still something in his throat that hadn't been completely swallowed, he suddenly realized that Mu Xueqing was right! That night, Wang An didn't sleep well; he got up to pee several times all night, and no one would sleep well if they did that.

Mainly because when taking the medicine, he drank two enamel mugs, almost 4 jin of water, so he really had to pee a lot.

So much so that when he got up in the morning, Wang An was the last person in the family to get off the bed.

After breakfast, Wang Dazhu and Wang An, the father and son, continued the great cause they hadn't finished yesterday—drawing blood from the deer.

With yesterday's experience, although the speed of drawing blood this time still couldn't be fast, the whole process was very smooth.

One doe and three half-grown deer, a total of 5 jin of blood was drawn, which could be considered quite a lot.

And the reason why the blood of one doe was left undrawn was because Wang An was worried that the deer blood drawn yesterday wouldn't be usable if it couldn't be kept for that long.

Because fresh deer blood, between minus 15 degrees and plus 4 degrees, can be stored for about 10 days, but the current temperature is getting warmer day by day.

In a few days, the highest temperature during the day will be above zero, and the deer blood drawn yesterday will have to be rushed into wine, otherwise it will all be wasted.

After drawing the deer blood, Wang An returned to the house to study the gold mine map, because according to Wang An's plan, after the thaw was complete, he would lead Mu Xueli and Wang Li to pan for gold at this gold mine. Judging from the annual thaw time, it would be completely thawed in a few days.

That is to say, they would be setting off soon.

Although you can't see anything from the map, at the very least, when you arrive at the place, you can't waste too much time on the road.

Just when Wang An was lying on the bed, dazed and about to fall asleep, Mu Xueqing asked curiously: "Xiao An, what is this deer skin in your hand for? I remember you've looked at it several times."

Wang An opened his half-closed eyes and said with a smile:

"This is the guarantee for our happy life in the future. Guess, what is this for?"

Mu Xueqing laughed: "What, could it be a treasure map? Didn't we dig up the last one?"

Wang An looked at Mu Xueqing and suddenly said with a very formal face:

"I was just about to tell you about this. I'm going on a long journey with Xueli and Wang Li in a few days, and I estimate it will take a month or so to come back."

Hearing this, Mu Xueqing was stunned and subconsciously asked: "What are you going to do? And it will take a month or so?"

Wang An pointed to the deer skin and said:

"This is a gold mine map. I'm thinking of taking them to pan for some gold."

When Mu Xueqing heard the two words "gold mine," she was clearly very shocked. Although her own family had so much gold, the meaning of the two words "gold mine" was indeed extraordinary.

Because compared to a gold mine, the gold in her own family was just a drop in the bucket; there was no comparison at all.

So Mu Xueqing deliberately lowered her voice and said:

"Does anyone else know about this gold mine?"

Wang An thought for a moment. Although theoretically only he should know, he really didn't feel confident.

Because although this deer skin map was pieced together, no one knew how many copies there were in total! If someone else had traced it, then it was even more uncertain.

Besides, after Wang An's rebirth, he had already changed the fate of many people, so if this gold mine were discovered by someone else in advance, it couldn't be called an accident.

After all, as a reborn person, Wang An knew a thing or two about the "butterfly effect."

So Wang An replied: "I don't know either. Let them have it if they do. Anyway, panning for gold is all about ability and fists. The three of us will each bring double guns, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

However, Mu Xueqing said with a worried face: "I heard people in our village say that near the gold mine in JY County, people are beaten to death every day. Our family already has so much money and gold, why don't we just not get involved."

To tell the truth, this was the first time Wang An discovered that Mu Xueqing also had times when she directly admitted defeat.

However, panning for gold is much more exciting than hunting or digging for ginseng.

The most important thing is that the money comes quickly.

You must know that whether it is fur, bear gall, or ginseng, they are just valuable things, and gold itself is money, and it is the boss of money!
