Shen Yanming didn't show favoritism. He asked everyone in turn, and after receiving a positive answer, he put a steamed bun on their plate.
They don't seem to care at all.
Li Gangtie felt sorry for him, clutching his chest and saying, "Yanming, there's a limit to how generous we can be! Think about your wife, and think about your little one. I feel bad for you sending out so much food."
He wasn't afraid of others having opinions about him for saying that, since they had spent a lot of time together and knew each other quite well.
Shen Yanming gave an awkward laugh and said to Li Gangtie, "My wife specially prepared these steamed buns for me, just to share with everyone. My wife said that since you all gave me this opportunity and took me out, I should thank you properly. These steamed buns are just a small token of my appreciation."
Shen Yanming displayed his henpecked nature to the fullest. Li Gangtie, upon hearing this, could only give him a "whatever makes you happy" look.
The others just laughed and said nonchalantly, "They'll all come back if we give Yanming a bigger share of the game. Captain, don't worry."
Li Gangtie shook his head helplessly: "I'm just worried that you might have some reservations."
"Hey, don't be so stingy. Yanming was incredibly lucky today. If he hadn't dug the tunnel for us, we wouldn't have had such a great harvest."
"Exactly. Before, when we dug holes, we either came up empty-handed or just a rabbit. Unlike today, we're digging up two, three, or even seven or eight at a time. Even if they're snakes, they're still meat. We might not eat them ourselves, but we can give them to others."
"If we calculate it this way, even if we give Xiao Shen two extra rabbits, we're still the ones who benefit. Haha, he's a lucky charm; we'll have to invite him on future hunting trips."
"That's right, that's right. If I had known Old Shen was so lucky, I should have called him earlier. Yanming, you must come to any future events."
Shen Yanming... I don't really want to...
But he still had to smile and say, "Alright, thank you all for thinking so highly of me."
The group stopped talking and started munching on their steamed buns. Although they were vegetarian, the fillings were crunchy and delicious.
"What kind of filling is this? I don't think I've ever had this before?"
"They're still dark green. Do you still have fresh vegetables?"
Shen Yanming didn't hide anything and used his wife's usual explanation: "Radish greens, when you harvest radishes in the fall, dry the greens in the sun, and then soak them in water in the winter and you can eat them. Just like regular dried vegetables. Oh, and sweet potato leaves too."
His family takes back everything that's edible, leaving nothing to waste, so they're not afraid of being investigated.
"Is that even possible? I'll give it a try this year."
Looking at the delicious vegetarian buns in his hand, Li Gangtie suddenly felt that he had missed out on hundreds of millions.
No wonder people say that Xiao Shen's wife knows how to manage a household; compared to our own family, she really knows how to plan ahead.
From ginger slices to radish leaves, they really considered every aspect. Looks like I'll have to learn a lot from them when I get back.
After finishing the steamed buns, Shen Yanming took out a condiment bottle from his bag.
Tang Shunlin and his group were already used to it, but others, such as Chang Anhui, were truly astonished.
"You still carry spice packets with you?" he asked, picking up the bottle and looking at it.
Before Shen Yanming could answer, Li Gangtie spoke up for him: "More than that. Little Shen is meticulous; he always carries a copy of anything he might need with him. Hmm, a good habit!"
Shen Yanming smiled but didn't say anything.
Li Gangtie didn't mind. He sprinkled the seasonings on the fish and rabbit, then grilled them for a while, making the aroma in the air even stronger.
After calculating the time, Li Gangtie said, "It's done, let's get started!"
No sooner had the words been spoken than several guards began scrambling for it. They pushed and shoved each other, creating quite a scene.
However, they all knew their limits, grabbing only the piece they liked best and then letting go, giving the rest of the meat to others.
Although Shen Yanming and Ji Kangyong didn't participate, they were still taken care of by several guards and given a lot of food. They didn't stand on ceremony and quickly devoured the all-natural food.
The group ate to their hearts' content, let out a hearty burp by the fire, and then rubbed their bellies before getting up.
"Put out the fire, then let's leave." The fish should already be caught in the net.
"good!"
Shen Yanming looked out of the cave and found that it was already dark. The guards were moving efficiently and didn't need his help at all. He stayed at the cave entrance and then probed his consciousness into the space.
The space was empty, and Shen Yanming felt a little resentful. He wondered what his wife was doing and why she hadn't come over yet.
That's right, Bi Qiaoan returned to the mobile villa at noon.
I cooked for An'an and Nuannuan, and then put the two little ones to a nap. I also harvested the mature crops in the space, as well as the small animals that were starting to proliferate, and threw them into the storage area.
Shen Yanming diligently tidied up the place, but his wife was nowhere to be found.
Bi Qiaoan was unaware that her husband was waiting for her, because Shen Yanming was busy when she left.
As if sensing something, Bi Qiaoan, who was rolling pills, looked up in the direction of the storage area.
Feeling uneasy, I put down what I was doing and took An'an and Nuannuan, who were playing with a puzzle, to the storage area.
Shen Yanming never expected that a casual thought would lead him to see his wife and baby; he thought it was a hallucination.
He only snapped out of his daze when he heard Bi Qiaoan ask, "Where are you? Why haven't you come back yet?"
So, it was all true!
Shen Yanming didn't hide anything and told her what happened after she left.
Bi Qiaoan, inside the space, frowned deeply and said, "You guys are too reckless. Just because nothing happened before doesn't mean nothing will happen in the future. You dare to linger in this desolate wilderness until dark? Do you think you have too many lives to live?"
Shen Yanming felt a little aggrieved. "I know it's not good, but everyone is in such high spirits that I can't be too unconventional."
Bi Qiaoan knew he couldn't make the decision, so he could only sigh. He also felt a little resentful towards Li Gangtie.
This wasn't his first time hunting, yet he showed absolutely no wariness. Could it be that the previous hunts had gone too smoothly, making him a little complacent?
Bi Qiao felt uneasy, wanting to teach him a lesson, but also afraid that her husband would suffer if something happened.
She was restless in the room, but dared not show it. She could only say softly, "It's getting dark, be vigilant, don't be like Old Li who didn't take it seriously."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanming immediately became serious and nodded: "Don't worry, I will."
The couple's conversation ended there, as Li Gangtie and his men set off.
About twenty minutes later, they returned to the riverbank. Together, they hauled the fishing net in, and the sight of so many lively, wriggling fish inside was dazzling.
Wow, so many fish!
"If only I hadn't gone to catch those rabbits today, I would have stayed by the river fishing instead. This haul is amazing!"
"I feel like this haul will last until next winter's hunt, hehe, it was definitely worth the trip!"
