Chapter 4 - Go Hunting

" Did you hear that ?" Ye Liu was shocked when Yu Dong brought them a meal.evEverince they married, Yu Dong it was them who were in charge of washin , cooking, cand leaning - Yu Dong only opened her mouth to either complain or eat, when hhadshe ever cooked for them? Shen Li was confused as well .e was looking at the egg custard and egg drop soup with a complex expression on his face no,t knowing what to do ,.s Wassafe to give it to Chen Mi? The egg drop soup looked quite delicious and aappetizingbut what if there was something in it? Ye Liu was thinking in the same direction he frowned and said ", We should just throw it away -" " Give it to me " said Chen Mi clutching his belly " I will eat it " ,he didn't dare trust Yu Dong but she was right , e realno energy left to push the child out and the labour had just started, even if the soup had poison in it Chen Mi wanted to die after giving birth to his child ." Don't be stupid Mi, hat if you die ?" Said Ye Liu jus,t like Chen Mi he, didn't trust Yu Dong either . " I need energy " smiled Chen Mi weakly " I don't have any strength left to push the child even if the soup is poisoned , might be able to push the child out before I die - and even if I don't eat it , Iwill die any way " what Chen Mi didn't say was that he wanted to eat his wife cooking , exerience how it feels to be taken care off before he died , wit this little energy , he ws sure that he will never be able to give birth safely. "Youare not going to die - Li what are, you doing ?" Ye Liu shouted when he saw that Shen Li drank a mouthful of the egg drop soup , he wa.d to make Li spit it out but Li al,ready shad wallowed it. " L,i are you stupid ?" It's fine, see, aren't I okay ?" Said Shen Li, actually he too knew that Chen Mi s condition was looking feeble and he needed whatever strength he could ,so eating this soup was important for Chen Mi to prepare himself to give birth "here you go Mi , ut stop groaning and try to save your strength, this is just egg not a chicken soup it won't give you much strength " Chen Mi nodded and sipped on the soup as Shen Li helped him drink it .e Liu stood beside cov,ering the egg custard with the big bowl - though he was hungry he, wowouldn'tat without Shen Li. ( Whata good brotherhood ,I would hate to break it ) .Back to Yu Dong, who was preparing herself to go to the mountains to hunt Though she had a lot of modern stuff in her spiritual world ,he didn't have any money in there - she still needed a lot of things to buy and, she had no startup money for anything . n the end she, decided that with her spiritual energy sh,e wiwouldust do hunting like the original owner's mother and earn some money to buy a few things ,like a goat, of course,e for baby milk, and some soft clothes for the chil . With a bow in hand and a knife, she left her house and hoisted two or three buckets to keep her hunt in it him. When the villagers saw that Yu Dong ,who usually stayed at her home and only knew how to drink and eat and never worked, actually had hoisted up her bow and hunter knif,- they were surprised. Some of them couldn't help themselves and asked ," Yu Dong, are you going to the mountains for hunting ?" " Yea , if you want to buy meat, you can come to my house later o.n " Yu Dong wasn't close to these villagers and felt a bit awkwa;, she didn't think that the villagers were trying to pull her leg and went on. The villager who wanted to make fun of Yu Dong was shocked .f Ifey wanted to buy meat, they should come to her hous ? What kind of joke was this? A woman who never learned anything about hunting actually boasted? Hah.. Some villagers who didn't believe Yu Dong didn't leave their work b,ut some did sneakily leave - they thought that it was no loss to bring some money with them and wait for Yu Dong if she couldn't hunt ,then they won't need to pay, righ ? It's not like they were trying to make an advance bookin ? Yu Dong didn't know what was going on in the head of the villagers, she just continued hiking the mountain and with her spiritual energy found ttwoboars that were head locked in a fight - Yu Dong was thrilled! She originally thought that she could only hunt a deer or antelope ,but now with these two boars, she was see ! The two boars had no idea what was going to befall them, they banged their heads and fought with each otherthey didn't even sense it when a sharp knife-like root,opped out of the ground and - Shah! Two roots pierced their bellies diagonally ,and the boars lost their lives just like that. Yu Dong jumped down the tree and checked her hunt .heShed already warned the other animals to stay away from this place with her spiritual energy, but she was faced with another dilemm: the buckets she brought wweremuch too small! Even if she carried the other boar on her back and butchered the other the bucket wasn't big enough to stuff it with the meat .Yu Dong was confused in.Inhe end, she remembered that there was a small hut at the foot of the mountain,n maybe she could borrow a bucket from them? Since she had no other option and there wwereno buckets in her spiritual world, she could only borrow one She left a trail of her spiritual energy in the area and left .When she reached the hut sh,e knocked on it ,a handsome manman-nono it was a mer, she could see his cinnabar mole in the centre of his forehead opened it ."What is it ?" He asked his voice awas bit husky and low " Can I borrow a bucket? I just hunted two boars ,and the buckets I brought are too small to carry everything.I promise to return it bashed and cleaned," said Yu Dong, the handsome mer hesitated and just when he was going to answer her an old woman hunched her way to the door . " Ah Chi ? ho is at the door - oh its,it'su Y,u Dong ." Granny Fang knew about Yu Dong's fame ,but she still greeted her politely. " Good day Granny - I I'morry to disturb you, but I want to borrow a bucke. I hunted two boars ,and they are too big to fit in buckets, even if I carry the other one ,I still need to butcher the other." Granny Fang was surprised when she heard that Yu Dong had hunted two boars, but she still understood Yu Dong's predicament ." Ah Chi, you go to , the boar will be too heavy for Yu Dong to carry." " Granny, I -" " Granny Fan,g you don't need . " Both Yu Dong and Fang Chi wanted to stop Granny Fang, but she shook her head and handed Fang Chi the bucke.t " Ah C,hi you should help out your fellow village memb,ers or eothersther will think you are too eccetric " Fang Chi blushed, he was shy from his birth and had no friends because he was poor and had no parents .pePeoplehought he was an ill star because his father died giving birth to him, and some years late,r his mother died as well . In the en,d Fang Chi had no other choice but to take the bucket and go with Yu Dog .
