I don’t know if it was because of the smell or the heat, but he blushed as he found the few remaining roasted eggs in the burnt-down kitchen.
Not only that, he was also busy trying to help Baichi peel the shell.
Although the fire in the thatched hut was big, it burned quickly, and the egg was just cooked through, with the white a little burnt yellow, and it tasted surprisingly good.
Bai Chi ate two in small bites and stopped eating. His body has been in a state of hunger for a long time. Eating too much at one time would make it difficult to digest.
Hu Yunxiao looked at Bai Chi's kitten-like appetite and couldn't help but hand him another baked egg.
"You're eating too little. No wonder you're so skinny. Eat two more. After that, I'll take you to town for some delicious food."
Bai Chi shook his head helplessly: "I can't eat too much. I usually eat little. If I suddenly eat too much, I will feel uncomfortable."
Hu Yunxiao knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. Although he looked reluctant, he didn't ask him to eat anymore, but he couldn't help muttering.
"You eat too little, like cat food. No wonder even children can bully you. Eat more at every meal in the future, and eat more meat to nourish yourself."
Although Hu Yunxiao had been staying at the village chief's house to recuperate during this period, he had heard something about a white-haired young man in the village and had seen him from a distance several times before.
But he didn't care about it before, and saving people today was purely a coincidence.
I originally wanted to rescue the person and leave, but for some reason, I suddenly felt reluctant to leave.
Bai Chi smiled bitterly and glanced around: "Where can I get the meat? I don't know how to hunt, and the eggs are all sold."
Hu Yunxiao frowned again, but soon relaxed his brows. He raised his big hand high, and when it landed on Bai Chi's shoulder, he had already released all the force.
It seemed like he was using force, but in fact, he patted Bai Chi's shoulder like a caress.
"It's okay, I can hunt, and we can eat meat every day from now on!"
Bai Chi suddenly laughed: "Brother Tiger, you are really good at hunting. You can even kill a tiger. I have never seen what a tiger looks like in my life."
Three months ago, a tiger came to the nearby mountains and killed many livestock and injured several people.
Finally, the government issued a bounty order, looking for someone to hunt the tiger. If successful, not only would the tiger belong to that person, but the government would also give him an extra reward of fifty taels of silver.
Many hunters were tempted at that time, but most of them never returned. The few who came back were missing limbs and basically did not survive for a few days.
Later, Hu Yunxiao passed by nearby and heard about this. He accepted the task and went up the mountain alone. He did not come back for several days.
Until half a month later, when everyone thought he had also been killed, he suddenly dragged the dead tiger down the mountain and came to their village.
However, Hu Yunxiao's shoulder was scratched by the tiger, so he stayed at the village chief's house and recuperated for half a month.
The original owner knew all these things, but because everyone in the village rejected him, he didn't dare to join in the fun to see what the tiger looked like, and he had no contact with Hu Yunxiao before.
Hu Yunxiao patted his chest in great pride.
"It's okay. We're going to town soon. I'll have someone take care of the tiger meat and bones. I'll keep the tiger skin, and I'll use it to keep you warm in the winter!"
Bai Chi smiled brightly: "Okay."
The smile on Hu Yunxiao's face instantly became wider, as if he had not given away the tiger skin, but received it.
"Meow, Master, your husband is like a peacock with its tail spread out. Has he forgotten that tiger skin is more valuable than tiger meat and bones, meow?"
"What do you know? Isn't that what all males do during courtship?"
