Chapter 610 Shu Yu's Plan to Keep a Low Profile

Two o'clock in the afternoon is indeed quite early.

However, Shu Yu didn't plan to continue into the mountains. "I'm not fighting anymore."

Fang Xiyue nodded upon hearing this. Actually, she wanted to continue; the more she gained, the better. They had been lucky today, so they should strike while the iron was hot.

But Shu Yu said she wouldn't fight anymore, since the two of them were in cahoots, and Fang Xiyue listened to her.

Shu Yu saw her eagerness and explained, "Today is our first day in the mountains, and there are two girls here, so it's better to keep a low profile. Otherwise, people will be jealous and target us, and our workload might increase. There's no need for that."

Even just one roe deer would probably attract a lot of envy.

Fang Xiyue nodded, and Shu Yu squatted down again to lift the roe deer up. The two walked and talked.

"Let's hand over all these roe deer and pheasants to the village first. Since it's still early, why don't we look around at the foot of the mountain and pick some wild vegetables and mushrooms to add to our meals? I reckon if we hand over the roe deer, we might get a pheasant in return, and we can have a better meal today."

Upon hearing Shu Yu's words, Fang Xiyue immediately became expectant.

We got a pheasant? Then we can make chicken soup for our parents.

If we pick some mushrooms or medicinal herbs at the foot of the mountain later, we can have a full meal at home.

In the past, I didn't have much time. I would finish my work and go home to cook and eat. I never had a chance to wander around the foot of this mountain.

Can't we finish all the things we couldn't do before today?

Thinking of this, Fang Xiyue's steps became lighter. "Okay, after I carry the roe deer back, I'll go back to get the basket." She paused, then seemed to remember something and sighed, "I forgot, I don't have a basket."

This is not the home I used to live in. There are no baskets or machetes left; I have to rely on my hands.

Shu Yu waved her hand, "I have one at home, you can borrow one."

"Okay, thank you, Ayu, you're such a good person." Fang Xiyue cheered up again.

Shu Yu, who had just been given the "friend zone" card, was speechless. This girl's standards for judging whether someone is good or bad are really low.

The two men carried the roe deer to the foot of the mountain while talking. There were few people on the road at this time; everyone had gone out to work.

In addition, the road they took was already quite remote.

Therefore, when the two arrived at the village, they hardly encountered anyone.

The officer in charge was lazily reclining in his chair, fast asleep, when he heard a knock at the door. He was jolted awake and immediately felt annoyed at being disturbed.

He walked to the door in a few steps, opened it, and instinctively wanted to curse.

Upon looking up and seeing it was Shu Yu, he swallowed his words. However, his expression was still sour as he asked, "It's you? Why are you back? What happened on the mountain? Did you catch any game?"

"We got it. There are only two of us, so we couldn't carry any more and brought it back first."

As she spoke, Shu Yu stepped aside, revealing the pheasants, rabbits, and... roe deer behind her.

The officer glanced at it lazily, then his eyes widened in shock. "A roe deer? You killed it?"

Can you believe it? Those two girls, who look so thin and small, could actually kill such a big roe deer at this time of year?

Oh, and that's not all, there's also a bunch of pheasants and rabbits.

The officer walked over to the pile of prey, looked at it, and then looked up. His gaze towards the two women became subtle. He couldn't believe that these two girls were such ruthless and vicious people.
