The Zhang brothers, Da Hu and Xiao Hu, were cowards. They apologized earnestly in no time. They were truly sincere and made a point of speaking to Gu Xin privately to apologize, promising never to bully her again.
The main problem is that even if they wanted to bully them, they couldn't win.
As for Gao Erzhuang, he promised that he would arrange a marriage for his family as soon as he got back and would not bother Gu Hui again.
Gao Dazhuang, on the other hand, has much more backbone; he resolutely refuses to speak, and beating him is useless.
The siblings were tired, so they sat on the ground and cleared a large space. Gu Nian asked the younger ones to gather firewood while she and Gu Hui set up a frame and waited for Lu Zheng's prey to come.
Lu Zheng didn't keep them waiting long. He even prepared the prey and brought it over. Although he was splattered with blood and water, he didn't look disheveled at all.
Walking in the sunlight, the slightly upturned corners of his lips looked so radiant.
Looking at Gu Xin's silly grin, Gu Nian sighed. To be honest, the male lead's looks were indeed impeccable.
She and Cai Xiaolian had seen many handsome men, and when they transmigrated, they thought Lu Zheng was very good-looking without knowing his identity.
They've met quite a few young men in the past three months, but only Lu Zheng has earned a good word from the mother and daughter.
Even the eldest son of the county magistrate was only considered "okay" by them!
"Wow! Brother Yuanyuan, you're amazing! You've already caught two pheasants and a rabbit in just a short time! And you've cleaned them up! Brother Yuanyuan, were you a hunter before?" Gu Xin ran up to him, recognized the cleaned hunter, and asked in surprise.
"It's not that I'm good, it's that these guys are stupid, they just squat there and let me catch them! I guess I'm having a lucky year!" Lu Zheng said with a smile.
He wasn't lying; those rabbits were exactly waiting for him to catch them.
He was the one who shot the chicken.
“Mother always says that luck is also a kind of strength,” Gu Xin said proudly, because she was very lucky. As long as she left the Gu family and the old house area, she could often find copper coins.
"Zhou Yuan, take out your seasonings and let me see them," Gu Nian said, stepping forward.
Lu Zheng found it inconvenient to carry the prey, so Gu En fawned over him and helped him carry it.
Lu Zheng took out the salt, chili powder, and some spices that Gu Nian had given to Grandma Xiao earlier, all wrapped in paper.
Lu Zheng had a dagger in his hand, which was quite sharp. After he had sharpened the fork, Gu Nian had already prepared the seasoning for the prey.
The game was skewered on tree trunks, placed on a rack, and a fire was lit. Soon, a delicious aroma filled the air.
Of the twelve people hanging upside down, the other eleven were alright, they were just tempted by the food, but Gao Dazhuang was in a terrible state. He was heartbroken, he was hungry, and he was drooling.
The siblings and Lu Zheng ignored the twelve people and chatted while watching their prey.
Lu Zheng recounted how he caught the stubborn rabbit that wouldn't run away, which made the younger children burst into laughter.
"Brother Yuanyuan, are rabbits really that stupid? My grandma says rabbits can run really fast, even faster than chickens," Gu Xin asked.
“Normally this is how it is, but today I don’t know what’s wrong with these two silly rabbits. They just sat there. I even stretched out my hand, but they didn’t move. If I hadn’t caught them and they hadn’t moved a few times, I would have suspected that rabbits die of old age while squatting!” Lu Zheng said in a serious tone.
"Zhou Yuan, are you developing into my uncle?" Gu Nian, who hadn't smiled all along, couldn't help but ask with a laugh.
