Chapter 12 Servant



Li said, "It's good that you're alright. You must have been frightened. I'll cook dinner later, you go and rest."

Madam Lu: "Yes, yes, my younger sister and I will cook later, so don't move. That Miss Feng is really something, just because someone is pretty, she wants to go home. She has no shame."

When Lu Yao saw Lu Qiqi, she immediately threw herself into Lu Qiqi's arms. Lu Qiqi pinched her nose and said, "Little crybaby, it's okay. If you keep crying, even Xibao will laugh at you."

Lu Yao poked her head out and said confidently, "Then I'll be younger than Xi Bao one time."

Everyone laughed when they heard these childish words, and an invisible bond called kinship bound them even deeper.

With a dozen or so more people keeping watch at night, the villagers felt a bit more relaxed, and they quickly forgot about the unpleasantness of that day.

Ever since Lu Qiqi returned with Song Yanqing and the two wild boars, Lu Dahai has refused to let her go into the forest alone. He insists that she either have Li Shi and Lu Shi accompany her, or have Li Changlong and Song Yanqing protect her.

That day, Lu Qiqi took Song Yanqing into the forest to hunt.

She dared not use the spiritual spring water in front of Song Yanqing, but that didn't stop her from having the tools to cheat.

It was hot, and the two were standing close together, arms touching, and could hear each other's breathing. Lu Qiqi felt a little uncomfortable. Just as she was about to move to the side, Song Yanqing grabbed her wrist and whispered, "Don't move."

Lu Qiqi stopped moving. Through the gaps in the bushes, she saw a gray hare climbing step by step toward the trap. Suddenly, the rope secured the hare tightly.

The rabbit struggled to break free, but the rope didn't budge; instead, it tightened even more.

After catching the rabbit, Song Yanqing released Lu Qiqi's wrist. "I'll go get it. You stay here and don't move."

After several attempts, the harvest was good. Lu Qiqi counted them and found a total of four wild rabbits, each weighing at least five or six pounds.

Tonight I can have rabbit meat to my heart's content! Roasted rabbit legs, stir-fried rabbit—I'll have it all. The rabbit fur can also be made into scarves to keep warm in winter.

Lu Qiqi followed behind Song Yanqing and walked back when suddenly she heard a scream that was both urgent and frightened.

Lu Qiqi and Song Yanqing exchanged a glance, dropped the rabbit, and ran back.
