章節 87: Chapter 87 Is This a Plea for Mercy?_1

"Hmm." Xiao Changyi had no objections.

From two baskets of bamboo shoots, An Jing set aside two bowls to stir-fry while they were fresh, and sliced the rest and laid them out with black fungus in the yard to dry.

Passers-by from the village were astonished to see black 'flowers' laid out to dry in Xiao Changyi's yard.

That was supposed to be poisonous!

However, noticing that there wasn't a large amount, people didn't pry into the matter any further. After all, if anyone were to be poisoned to death, it wouldn't be them. They thought it would be best if the poison killed the couple, saving the villagers from being bothered by their presence.

That very noon, An Jing stir-fried a plate of bamboo shoots.

"Is it much tastier than wild greens?" An Jing asked with sparkling eyes, looking across at Xiao Changyi who was eating.

Xiao Changyi nodded, "Hmm."

"Then you should eat more." An Jing said smilingly, adding more bamboo shoots to Xiao Changyi's bowl.
