Chapter 972 No food to eat
Ye Wanxi gave the couple a teasing look: "You two have faces that indicate you're destined for many children and good fortune. You're destined to have at least two children. Although it's a little late, what's meant to come will come. Just relax, madam. Being too nervous is not good."
When Sister-in-law Huang heard Ye Wanxi say that they actually had two children, she gasped for breath and her face flushed red. She looked at the little weasel as if it were some very precious treasure.
The initial hesitation and apprehension have now completely transformed into gratitude and anticipation.
As long as it can protect their family and bring them adorable little lives, they will spare no effort to find it any delicacies or rare treasures it desires, let alone offering it meat and fruits every day.
The elders of the Huang family were pleased to hear this, and in their joy, they couldn't help but try to pull Ye Wanxi to continue eating.
Ye Wanxi had just eaten half a roast chicken. Although the chicken was quite small, it was still very filling. She quickly declined the Huang family's offer and left with the charcoal.
When it left, Charcoal Head was rather reluctant. It had noticed the weasel's presence ever since it entered the Huang family's gate.
Unlike the little rabbit, the little snail, and the white flower, this weasel was just a low-level spirit with weak magical powers, and was on Charcoal Head's menu.
When Charcoal Head pinned down the little weasel earlier, he was so hungry he almost drooled. If it weren't for the fact that Ye Wanxi was still there and he had to maintain his image, he would have already given it a bite.
It was thought that after the incident, this little weasel would still be its meal, but unexpectedly, things took a turn for the worse, and the meat that was about to be eaten flew away!
Charcoal, who had missed out on the feast, didn't dare to throw a tantrum at Ye Wanxi. However, he was a little disappointed on the way back. He nestled in Ye Wanxi's arms, not moving much, and was no longer as lively as he had been when they arrived.
Ye Wanxi naturally noticed this as well, and chuckled, "I'll cook you something delicious when we get back, as a reward for your good performance today, okay?"
Charcoal Head's ears perked up immediately. Ever since Gao Min moved in with Ye Wanxi, Ye Wanxi had rarely cooked. Moreover, what she made for these little ones was not ordinary food, but spiritual food specially made with spiritual herbs. For the little ones, it was not only a feast, but also a panacea.
Upon hearing that Ye Wanxi was going to cook for it herself, Tantou's previous disappointment vanished, and it immediately perked up, snuggling against Ye Wanxi's palm and acting coquettishly.
This little guy is easy to please, but there's someone else in the family who's not so easy to please.
When Ye Wanxi returned home, the little rabbit, feeling stood up, had already caused a scene, and its destructive power was now far greater than before.
When Ye Wanxi arrived home, she found the house in complete disarray, with a pile of things scattered all over the floor and snow-white rabbit fur everywhere.
Qiu Yuerong stood to the side, staring at the rabbit fur with a look of despair, her eyes glazed over, her expression dazed, as if she might pass away at any moment.
Ye Wanxi was both annoyed and amused, and shouted loudly, "Little one, come out here!"
The little one, who was still causing trouble upstairs, immediately jumped down from upstairs like a snow-white ball.
He had originally planned to give Ye Wanxi the cold shoulder and make her apologize, but as soon as he got closer, he smelled the lingering odor on Ye Wanxi.
The little rabbit froze for a moment, then eagerly rushed to Ye Wanxi's side, hopping and skipping around her two or three times.
Stinky, stinky, stinky! How can my little owner smell so bad!
No, this smells like a spirit! A spirit, an animal! My little master has run off to meet other little fairies again!
This realization made the little rabbit's fur stand on end. It hopped around and cooed at Ye Wanxi, questioning her about whether she had taken a fancy to a new little devil and wanted to take it home!
Unfortunately, Ye Wanxi didn't understand what it meant and thought that its loud shouting was a protest against not bringing it with her in the morning.
He patiently explained to it, "It's not that I don't want to take you, but your habits are different from Charcoal's. To outsiders, you're a rabbit, and Charcoal is a dog. Dogs have a keen sense of smell, so it's normal for them to smell something amiss. But have you ever seen a rabbit help find something? If I take you there, and something happens, people will immediately notice that something's wrong."
"Besides, the place we're going to this time isn't as clean as home. Look at you, all fluffy and snow-white. Don't you usually love your white fur the most? What if you get it dirty during the fight? Won't you feel bad?"
The little rabbit thought that this made sense, but then it thought that its fur could be washed if it got dirty, and it could also enjoy the personal service of its little owner, which was better than staying at home.
And don't think I can't see that you're just changing the subject. Where's the little devil? This isn't over until we get this straight. We already have so many little devils in the house; if we add another one, how will it survive?!
To defend its sovereignty, the little rabbit resolutely refused to let any new members into its household.
But Ye Wanxi took this as a protest against her previous explanations. She sighed and thought, if the soft approach didn't work, she would have to resort to the hard one.
"I was originally planning to cook something nice for you all as a reward today. But you didn't do well today. Look at all this stuff in the house, it's added so much work for your sister Qiu. So I've decided to deduct your share as a small punishment. In short, you're not getting dinner tonight."
“??!”
The little rabbit was stunned, never expecting that its protest would result in such a consequence.
"Coo coo coo, coo coo coo!" I want to eat too, I want to eat too! I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't do it again next time!
"There's no room for negotiation. Reflect on your actions. If you dare to do it again, all your after-dinner snacks will be confiscated."
After Ye Wanxi finished speaking, she went upstairs with a particularly cold and ruthless attitude, determined to teach this unruly brat a lesson.
The little rabbit froze on the spot, watching Ye Wanxi's expression disappear around the corner on the second floor. Finally realizing its young master was serious this time, it let out a mournful cry of regret: "Goo—"
With the Huang family's matter resolved, the previous issue with the funeral home has also made progress.
An ancient imperial tomb was unearthed on the hill behind the funeral home, and professional archaeologists from all over the country rushed to City A.
At the same time, Ji Xiangli and his family also could not escape the law.
After Ji Xiangli was arrested, he initially felt that there was insufficient evidence to convict him, and he was quite fearless. After being taken away by the police, he hoped that his parents would come as soon as possible to bail him out.
Unexpectedly, instead of receiving news of his release, he was greeted by his parents coming in hand in hand to keep him company.
Ji Xiangli's mental state collapsed at once, and under police questioning, he finally revealed the source of the things he used to murder his father.
