Butcher Yun nodded. "Okay, I'll get it out in a minute. Don't worry, I know you all love rabbit. I'll talk to your mother and have her cook it for us tonight."
When Brother Yun heard this, his face was full of smiles. "You said it, Dad, please don't lie to me. We are all waiting to eat the rabbit."
"What are you thinking? I'm your father, how can I feel bad for you eating a rabbit? Besides, I caught the rabbit myself."
"Besides, your mother, when has she ever felt sorry for you eating meat?"
Brother Yun touched his head embarrassedly and said, "Dad, that's not what I meant. I just think our food has been too good lately."
Butcher Yun gave Brother Yun a look and said, "Alright, Dad knows what you mean. Go get your mother."
"Dad, I'm going now."
After Brother Yun finished speaking, he ran to Zhang's side and said, "Mom, my father asked me to call you over."
Zhang was serving rice. "Okay, Boss, go wash your hands and eat. I'll go find your father now."
"Come on, mother."
Zhang soon arrived at Yun the Butcher's place, and Yun the Butcher showed Zhang everything the children had caught that day.
Zhang's reaction was even greater than Yun the Butcher's, but she controlled herself and did not scream uncontrollably.
Of course, in the end, Zhang was very happy to promise to eat rabbit meat tonight.
At the dinner table, Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui also finished their lunch quickly.
Then, the two of them walked to the side of the official road tacitly.
"Brother Zirui, is there any news from your side today?"
"Yiyi, someone did come to deliver a message this afternoon. They are now trying to find out the specific situation of Fengzhai."
"They also told us not to act rashly. Just stay here, like we are now."
"After a while, when there are no bandits in Qingfeng Village and we can set off, they will come and inform us."
"Brother Zirui, do the refugee groups around us know about this?"
Xie Zirui smiled and said, "Yiyi, I knew you would ask this question."
"But don't worry. They said they've spread the rumor that the Qingfeng Village bandits are particularly brutal recently."
"I believe that no one would deliberately go there to die after hearing the rumors."
"Brother Zirui, you've been at home recently. Do the people in our village know about this rumor?"
"I know, Yiyi. They came here to deliver a message and were afraid of being suspected. So, they all came here disguised as peddlers."
"They not only sell goods every time, but also spread rumors. That's why everyone in our village knows about it."
"You haven't been home recently, so you don't know. Uncle Yun has been called over by the elders for several meetings."
"However, I heard from Uncle Yun that no one has come up with any good solutions in every meeting. I also heard from Uncle Yun that the elders of the clan should come to discuss this matter with you tonight."
Yun Yiyi was speechless. "No, Brother Zirui, why did the elder think of me again?"
Xie Zirui smiled evilly, "Haha, do you think the elders only remembered you today? Haha, definitely not."
"The truth is, during the first meeting, the elders specifically asked you to go. However, you've been obsessed with going up the mountain every day lately. They simply didn't stop you."
"Well, I thought they suddenly remembered me. In that case, I'll go find the elders tonight and comfort them."
Xie Zirui nodded, "Yes, Yiyi, you should make it clear to the elders that it is best for us to stay here now."
"Yiyi, even though I haven't explained it clearly, please believe me. It won't be long before the bandits in Qingfeng Village are wiped out."
"Don't forget, the bandits from Qingfeng Village are blocking the refugees' way to Yunzhou."
"The eldest prince in Yunzhou has always loved his people like his own children. He will not let this situation go unchecked."
Yun Yiyi looked at Xie Zirui's face full of certainty, and the feeling that something was wrong came back in her heart.
"Brother Zirui, you seem to be very familiar with Yunzhou and the eldest prince?"
Xie Zirui's face twitched for a moment, but he quickly recovered. "Yiyi, you may not understand what I'm saying."
"But when you arrive in Yunzhou, you'll find that everyone living in Yunzhou knows the eldest prince like the back of their hand."
"Of course, there is also the invincible Yun Family Army, which is also very popular in Yunzhou."
Hearing Xie Zirui say this, Yun Yiyi felt that maybe she didn't understand Yunzhou or the eldest prince, so the feeling that something was wrong was suppressed again.
Seeing that Yun Yiyi believed what he said, Xie Zirui felt a little scared.
Yun Yiyi is so smart. If I had said a few more words, she would probably have guessed it.
However, now is not the time to confess everything, Xie Zirui can only keep it a secret from her for a while longer.
"Well then, Brother Zirui. I hope Yunzhou and the Crown Prince are as good as you say."
"I really don't want to flee from famine to famine. It's too hard and unsafe."
Xie Zirui nodded, "Yes, Yiyi, I have the same idea as you."
"By the way, Brother Zirui, when my eldest brother and I were going up the mountain, we found a rabbit that had dug a hole under the yam."
"So this morning, we not only caught rabbits, but also dug up a lot of yams."
"Brother has killed and cleaned up a big rabbit. Let's continue eating rabbit today. Are you happy?"
Xie Zirui immediately held Yun Yiyi's hand and said, "Yiyi, really, I love eating the rabbit made by my aunt. It's so fragrant and delicious."
"Haha, I knew you loved it. Don't worry, that big rabbit that Big Brother killed weighs over six pounds. We can have another delicious meal today."
"That's great, Yiyi. I'm so happy. Our meals have been so good lately."
"By the way, Brother Zirui, my eldest and second brothers and I have discussed taking the remaining rabbits and some yams and having Dad take them to town to sell them in exchange for some food."
"What do you think?"
Xie Zirui was stunned for a moment before realizing it. Yun Yiyi and Brother Yun had harvested so much in the mountains recently. There was really no need to store so much yam and rabbit meat.
"Yiyi, this is a good thing. But I'm telling you, there's no need to send Uncle Yun to town to sell rabbits and yams."
"They will come again at noon tomorrow to deliver the message. Then, just let them take away the rabbits and yams."
"But, Brother Zirui, aren't they pretending to be peddlers? We've dug up quite a lot of yams these past two days."
Xie Zirui said with certainty, "Yiyi, don't worry, they have a lot of people. After they take the rabbits and yams back, they don't need to sell them, they can eat them all themselves."
