Chapter 32: Which female should I give it to?

Wen Li's voice was neither loud nor soft, without any emotion, and fell clearly into Xin Yuan's ears.

Xin Yuan was stunned when he was suddenly told to "get out".

He stood there with a frown on his face, his amber eyes dimmed, his expression a little aggrieved, but more of puzzled.

Did he make Wen Li angry?

Xin Yuan clenched the bamboo basket in his hand. It was full of thank-you gifts for Wen Li.

Carefully selected natural fruits, the best insect repellent grass, and fruits picked on the road that can be eaten directly.

I originally thought that Wen Li would be very happy, but I didn't expect that the other party was unwilling to see him.

Xin Yuan pursed her lips and called out again, "Wen Li, I'm Xin Yuan. I came here to give you something."

There was silence in the cave for a moment.

"I don't want to see you." Wen Li's clear voice came again.

An unprecedented feeling flowed through Xin Yuan's limbs and bones, and he felt a blockage in his heart.

Very uncomfortable.

"Did I do anything to upset you?" Xin Yuan couldn't help but ask.

The cave was quiet and no one answered.

Xin Yuan waited for a while, but still didn't get any explanation from Wen Li.

Wen Li didn't know how to explain her inexplicable behavior.

She didn't want to admit that she was upset because she saw him giving a gift to An Yuan.

Silence is the best answer.

"I told you not to go now." Zhu Yan couldn't bear it and pulled Xin Yuan back.

Xin Yuan was still puzzled and kept looking at the entrance of Wen Li's cave.

"Brother, what's wrong with her?" Xin Yuan asked in confusion.

Zhu Yan shook his head. "I don't know. Females are like that. They always have bad days."

Xin Yuan sat down in front of Zhu Yan, "Did I do something to upset her?"

"It's possible." Zhu Yan was too lazy to think about these things. "She should be able to recover in a few days. Let's leave her alone for a while."

Zhu Yan stood up and walked towards the well. "By the way, she brought fish when she came back just now."

Xin Yuan followed and saw the dead fish thrown near the well.

"These are fish from the river." Xin Yuan murmured softly.

Anxiety passed through his heart.

Could it be that Wen Li just went to the river?

Wouldn't she have seen anything?

Xin Yuan was unsure and didn't know whether he should tell Wen Li what had just happened.

Zhu Yan patted him on the shoulder at this moment and said, "Don't be in a daze, hurry up and finish it, otherwise the fish will go bad."

"Oh." Xin Yuan's thoughts were interrupted.

The two men began to deal with the fat fish in front of them.

After removing all the internal organs and scraping off the scales, place the processed fish in a wooden basin filled with clean water.

There weren't many fish so it didn't take too long.

According to Xin Yuan's usual practice, he would directly marinate the fish and dry it into fish jerky.

But I don’t know what Wen Li is going to make, so I can only leave it like this for the time being.

After Zhu Yan finished processing the fish, he said to Xin Yuan, "I'm going to send some prey to Yan Ci. I'll be back soon."

Xin Yuan nodded.

The two of them had a great harvest today, and on the way back they agreed to share some with Bai Yanci.

Zhu Yan picked a few fat chickens and rabbits and went to Bai Yanci's house.

Bai Yanci's home was not far from Zhu Yan's home, and it was just a few steps away.

When Zhu Yan arrived, Bai Yanci was making dinner for himself.

He has always been a casual person and has no fixed meal time. He eats whenever he feels hungry.

"Why are you here?" Bai Yanci stood up after seeing Zhu Yan.

"Here, I've got something for you." Zhu Yan raised the pheasant and rabbit in his hands.

Bai Yanci raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "So many?"

Zhu Yan laughed and said, "Xin Yuan and I went to the back mountain today. We were lucky."

"Thank you."

Bai Yanci didn't bother to be polite with Zhu Yan. He took the prey he handed over and put it aside.

Zhu Yan's eyes fell on his steaming stone pot, "What are you cooking?"

Bai Yanci is a very particular person. He almost never eats anything raw. He basically wants it to be roasted or boiled.

This habit is similar to Wen Li's.

His taste buds are not as picky as Xin Yuan's. He has no particular obsession with food and thinks that as long as it is edible, it's fine.

So even if the cooked food doesn't taste good, he can still eat it and is not afraid of the trouble.

"Just cook something." Bai Yanci said, and opened the lid.

Several chickens were stewing in it, with a few green vegetables floating on the bland soup.

Zhu Yan lost his appetite as soon as he saw it. He remembered the dishes made by Wen Li, which looked beautiful and delicious.

What Bai Yanci did was far inferior to what Wen Li did.

Bai Yanci noticed Xin Yuan's expression, but didn't take it too seriously. He said softly, "I won't keep any for you. You don't like cooked food anyway."

Before Wen Li moved in, Zhu Yan always ate raw meat.

He looked down on this kind of cooked meat, thinking it was both unpalatable and troublesome, which was very similar to Xin Yuan.

"Well, I don't want to eat." Zhu Yan said.

The chicken was cooked, and Bai Yanci took it out one by one. After doing all this, he found that Zhu Yan was standing there looking at him.

"Aren't you leaving yet?" Bai Yanci raised his eyebrows slightly. "What's the matter?"

In the past, when Zhu Yan came to deliver something, he would just throw it away and leave, or if he had something to say, he would just say it directly. This was the first time I saw him being so hesitant.

A bit strange, Bai Yanci thought.

Zhu Yan looked up at the sky, scratched his short hair, and said nonchalantly, "Something happened."

"Then just say it directly." Bai Yanci said.

Zhu Yan hesitated for a long time before saying, "Where did you find that... ahem... that fragrant flower you mentioned earlier?"

Bai Yanci: "Oh, you mean that? I grew some myself. Do you want some?"

"Uh... well! Give me some." Zhu Yan clenched his fists uncomfortably.

"Okay." Bai Yanci responded straightforwardly and turned to go into his own cave.

There are many things in Bai Yanci's cave, but it does not look messy. Everything is neatly arranged.

Next to a small cave, there are several orange-yellow flowers growing. They are very small, but they emit a rich and elegant fragrance.

Bai Yanci picked a few flowers, took out the Dongxue and handed it to Zhu Yan.

"I can only give you this much." Bai Yanci said.

This was the first time Zhu Yan saw the flower that Bai Yanci mentioned. The flower was only the size of his thumb, but it was fragrant.

"Thank you." Zhu Yan carefully placed the flower in his palm.

Bai Yanci gave not many, only three.

"Why did you suddenly come to me to ask for money? What do you want to use it for?" Bai Yanci asked curiously with his arms folded.

"Get something." Zhu Yan said vaguely.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but confirm with Bai Yanci again: "I remember you said before that the flower juice can be added directly to the herbs without any effect?"

Bai Yanci nodded, "Yeah, it only has the effect of Titian."

"Okay, I got it." Zhu Yan walked away.

Only Bai Yanci was left with a puzzled look on his face.

What on earth was Zhu Yan going to do with his flowers? Make a balm?

If this is true, then the ointment could not have been used by Zhu Yan himself, as he has always been a rough person.

If it was a gift for a female, it would be understandable... Wait, was he really planning to make something and give it to a female?
