Chapter 296 Sister Shufen's Praise, Everyone's Shock

On the dirt road, Wang Shufen couldn't wait any longer, so she quickly walked towards the two of them.

Lu Fangfang also saw Sister Shufen and quickly went to greet her.

"Girl, girl, you're finally back! You're pregnant, and you were running around like that. I was so worried about you."

Wang Shufen took the girl's hand and looked her up and down.

She was most worried about her daughter's belly, especially her stomach.

"Sister Shufen, I'm fine. The bloodstains on my body are just from the stains. I'm perfectly fine."

"Girl, you're married now and about to have your own child. You need to think things through carefully from now on and not act rashly. You're an adult now."

Wang Shufen held Lu Fangfang's hand tightly, speaking earnestly.

She turned her head and took another look, and was startled. "My goodness, it's so big! Girl, what is this? It looked dark to me just now."

Hearing Sister Shufen say these words to her, Lu Fangfang felt quite touched.

She pulled Wang Shufen forward and said with a smile, "Sister Shufen, this is the bear I hunted. It's the one that hurt Xiaohua. When we get home, I'll cut some meat for you to take back so that Daya and Tiedan can also taste bear meat."

"A bear? Such a big bear? This must be a bear spirit! My goodness, it's bigger than the old sow we've raised for years."

Wang Shufen muttered to herself, still somewhat incredulous.

On the donkey cart, Xiong Ba lay prone, only his back and the back of his head were exposed, which looked quite terrifying.

Wang Shufen suppressed her shock, touched it, and felt the normal fleshy texture, which made her breathe a slight sigh of relief.

Looking back at Lu Fangfang, she couldn't help but ask, "Girl, did you shoot this? You shot a bear yourself? Didn't Xiao Zhuang help?"

"No, I did it myself. No one helped me. By the time he arrived, I had already gutted the bear and even took out its heart, liver, and lungs."

Lu Fangfang raised her head, looking quite proud.

After all, it was such a big bear. If this had happened in the commune, she would definitely have been called a bear-fighting hero.

"Girl..."

"Shufen, what's wrong?"

"You're really something else."

Wang Shufen sighed and spoke her truest thoughts.

"Pfft~"

"Cough cough, Fangfang, Sister Shufen is right. Don't do such reckless things again."

Zhuang Mingcheng, standing to the side, couldn't stop laughing when he heard this.

Sometimes, he also felt that his wife was quite "fierce". Who raises both snow leopards and Tibetan foxes at the same time?

Oh, and they also captured a Tibetan wild donkey alive. You couldn't do something like that without a bit of "tiger-like" courage.

"Sister Shufen, I'm not being fierce... I'm just being heroic. I'll take that as a compliment."

Lu Fangfang pinched her husband, and he laughed really loudly.

Pulling Zhuang Mingcheng to the back of the donkey cart, the two of them gave it a push, turning it onto the dirt road.

The bear was really too heavy, and the little wild donkey and the chestnut horse were quite tired from the journey.

"By the way, Sister Shufen, come back with me and help me process the bear. It's hot now, and I want to skin the bear meat and render the fat into oil to keep."

"Rendering oil? Rendering bear oil?"

Seeing the girl nod, Wang Shufen was quite curious.

She'd rendered lard and mutton fat before, but she'd never seen bear fat before.

She reached out and touched the bear on the donkey cart. She nodded. This bear was really fat; it should yield quite a bit of meat.

"Okay, I'll go to the quail farm to feed them and I'll be right there."

After saying that, Wang Shufen wanted to go back to the breeding farm.

"Sister Shufen, could you please lock the gun in the cabinet for me? I won't go."

"Okay, give them all to me."

Lu Fangfang took off the Type 56 pistol she was carrying and handed all the bullets to Sister Shufen.

They had walked all the way from the mountains and forests, which was quite a distance, and their legs were very sore, but they didn't want to walk anymore.

After Sister Shufen walked away, Lu Fangfang turned around and pinched her husband again, "What were you laughing at just now? You were really loud."

"Tiger wife, haha, this is a compliment. You have the spirit of a tiger. Tiger means brave and fierce."

As Zhuang Mingcheng spoke, he couldn't help but laugh again.

"Get lost. This is called being imposing and heroic, not being fierce. You're the one who's fierce."

Lu Fangfang rolled her eyes at him.

"Tiger" means foolish or stupid, describing someone as silly, thoughtless, and straightforward. She knows that perfectly well.

Hmm...

But thinking back on my act of hunting the bear, it really was a bit reckless.

Lu Fangfang thought about it and laughed again, "Mingcheng, you'd better keep an eye on me at home more often, otherwise I might act like a madman. If anyone dares to hurt Xiaohua in the future, I promise I'll go and get revenge."

"Alright, I'll go with you to take revenge from now on."

"Awoo~"

The little Tibetan fox was so excited about going home that it ran around the donkey cart.

Little Flower, on the other hand, seemed to be in a bad mood.

Lu Fangfang glanced at it, somewhat helplessly.

Touching her belly, she muttered to herself, "My little one must not be like Xiao Hua in the future."

The donkey cart swayed and creaked, but it finally made it to the family compound without falling apart halfway.

The women who were comforting their children under the birch tree greeted the two men with smiles when they saw them return.

When the little wild donkey and the chestnut horse pulled the donkey cart in, everyone stood up in shock.

"Hiss~"

"Oh dear, what... what is this dark thing?"

"My God, Xiao Lu, Deputy Regiment Commander Zhuang, what... what have you brought back?"

"Blood, so much blood! Xiao Bao, don't look!"
