Chapter 9 A Bad Feeling
y. No one forced her. I was willing to give her this opportunity, but whether she would eventually stay or not depended on Qiujing herself.'""I didn't force anyone to sell themselves to satisfy my fet...Finally, they caught five rabbits at the rabbit hole. Two big ones weighed about five or six pounds each, and three smaller ones, the lightest of which still weighed over a pound.
It's probably that the whole rabbit family was taken out.
Zong Yu, carrying his rope, tied five rabbits' legs together with it and strung them onto a thick wooden pole, which he carried on his shoulder. He told Fang Jinxiu to pick up the wild vegetables and herbs that had fallen on the ground and put them back in their basket.
"That's it for today, I'm heading home." Zong Yu glanced at the sky and spoke.
A basket brimming with wild greens and herbs, plus five rabbits weighing almost twenty pounds each. Today's harvest is pretty good.
This was the easiest hunting trip Zong Bai had been on in the past two months.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you come hunting with us from now on It feels like our luck has been much better ever since you joined us."
He had walked this mountain road countless times, not to mention rabbits, now even birds were rarely seen.
Three people were walking home when suddenly they heard rustling sounds coming from the bushes beside them.
Zong Yu immediately warily pulled Fang Jinxiu behind him, protecting her.
Zong Bai, standing nearby, saw this and curled his lip. His brother-in-law had only been home for a day, and already he'd forgotten all about loyalty because of lust.
"What, what's wrong" Fang Jinshu saw her two brothers suddenly look like they were facing a great enemy, she was surprised and asked.
"There are wild animals in the grass."
"Zongbai, you go stand at the back too."
He casually gave his brother the rabbit on his shoulder, and then stretched his limbs.
Fang Jinshi was so scared that she didn't dare to move, and even her breath was held in tension.
She whispered to Zongbei behind her, "Didn't we say that there wasn't even a bird here"
"How could there be wild beasts"
Zong Bai was also puzzled. But his elder brother was always accurate when it came to hunting, he had a lot of experience.
Just as the two of them finished speaking, a wild boar with fangs burst out of the grass.
Zongyu didn't intend to dodge at all. He spread his legs wide apart, assuming a horse stance and squatting slightly.
Fang Jinshi saw the wild boar charge straight at him, his heart nearly stopping in fear.
"Zongyu, get out of the way quickly!"
"It will kill you!"
Zong Bai suddenly pulled her back, "It's us who should dodge, elder sister-in-law. This little wild pig, big brother can solve it with one punch."
"What, what"
"A punch"
She heard a sickening crunch, the sound of bone shattering under a fist.
Fang Jinshu turned her head back, and when she saw the scene before her, her jaw nearly dropped.
Zongyu actually punched the wild boar's skull into pieces!
To make sure it was dead, he immediately rode on top of it and pulled out his dagger from his bag, stabbing it in the heart.
A wild boar weighing over a hundred pounds, he said killing it was just killing it
Fang Jinshi swallowed nervously. Actually, the rumors didn't seem entirely baseless.
That's really brutal.
Zongyu turned to his younger brother and beckoned him over, "Zongbei, come help."
He then, using his familiar method, trapped the wild boar's four hooves. He put a thicker stick through it and, together with his brother, lifted it onto their shoulders.
On their way back, the three men encountered fellow villagers from the village who were also out looking for food. Seeing the wild boars on Zongyu's brothers' shoulders, they looked at them with envy.
If I were to say, Zong Yu is more capable.
"At this time of day, you could still hunt such a big wild boar."
Fang Jinshi frowned, a wave of worry washing over her.
It is said that wealth does not reveal itself, but now in a year of hardship, they have suddenly obtained such a good thing and returned. Who knows how it will attract envy
Zongyu ignored these people in the village and continued walking home with his younger brother.
But Fang Jinshu's worries proved to be well-founded.
The three of them had just arrived home when they heard two hurried footsteps behind them before the wild boar even landed.
A woman's sharp voice followed closely behind.
Well, hello there!
"Look at my nephew! He's so capable, he managed to hunt down such a big wild boar."
"Zongyu, your grandmother has been craving this dish for months now. Your sister-in-law just gave birth, and the family is running low on food."
"You're so capable, could you split the wild boar with us"
Fang Jinxiu almost laughed at this.
She turned her head and asked Zongbei, "Who is she"
When Zong Bai, a good-tempered and cheerful man, saw this woman's angry expression, he told her in an annoyed tone.
"This is our aunt, Liu."
"The man next to me, is our great-uncle, Zongping Kang."
My father's brother. and they could work for her their whole lives, he was content.Fang Jinshu gave Li Muhai one day to tidy up, and they did not go back to his house. They found an inn in the city to rest.Zhao Xingzhou...
