When Ying Xixi heard the wolfdog say this, she also reacted.
She could actually understand its roar!
By the way, she seemed to have gotten a golden finger before, which allowed her to communicate with animals.
I didn't expect it to come in handy here.
"I understand, what do you think? You didn't expect that, did you?
You were teasing me in front of me, and I heard it!
Whose dog are you, and what are you doing here?"
Ying Xixi said this and waved to the wolfhound to ask it to come over.
It was the first time that the wolfdog saw a two-legged beast that could understand its speech. It was very curious and walked up to Ying Xixi, wagging its tail.
Ying Xixi wiped the water off her hands and petted the wolfhound.
"Nice, fluffy dog."
"Woof!"
Of course! Where's my master? Isn't he home?
Were you brought back by my master?
Ying Xixi was about to answer the wolfhound's question when she heard hurried footsteps behind her.
Then Xiao Sui's voice rang out, "Be careful, girl. It can bite! You... um?"
Xiao Sui stopped talking halfway when he saw Ying Xixi and the wolfhound having so much fun together.
He walked over and the wolfhound pounced on him happily.
"Woof woof!"
Master, I'm back. Do you miss me?
I found prey in the mountains. Master, please come with me to get the prey back.
"Dahei, you didn't go home all night. What did you do? Did you eat your fill without telling me?"
Xiao Sui touched Dahei's full belly.
The big black tail wagged even more happily, biting Xiao Sui's clothes and trying to drag him out.
"Dahei, wait a minute, don't be anxious."
Xiao Sui patted the dog's head and looked at Ying Xixi.
"Girl, this is the wolfdog I raised. Did it hurt you just now?"
"No, is its name Dahei? It's quite cute."
Ying Xixi reached out and rubbed the dog's head, and Dahei also came over and licked her hand.
Xiao Sui was quite surprised to see this scene.
"I didn't expect Dahei to get along so well with you. Dahei has a bit of a bad temper. Usually, he gets aggressive when he sees anyone else coming to his house, except me."
"Woof woof!"
It’s not that I have to be mean to them, it’s just that some of them don’t look like good bipeds!
I'm protecting you, Master!
How come you don’t understand a dog’s heart?
Dahei hummed and groaned, very dissatisfied.
After humming, it winked at Ying Xixi, meaning that she should help it explain to its owner.
Ying Xixi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
This wolfdog is really a spirit.
"Mr. Xiao, maybe Dahei did this to protect you.
Dahei just looked like he was trying to pull you out, do you want to go with him?"
Ying Xixi asked.
"Go ahead, let's go to the mountains and see if there's any prey. Do you want to go, girl?"
Ying Xixi nodded quickly, "I do."
"Okay, let's go. You can continue washing these unwashed clothes when you come back later."
Xiao Sui said this.
"good."
Xiao Sui took the bow and arrow and hunting knife, asked Ying Xixi to carry a bamboo backpack, and handed her a straw hat.
"The sun is strong, so you'd better wear a hat.
I forgot to ask you, are you physically able to handle this? It would be difficult to handle if you fainted on the mountain."
Ying Xixi took the straw hat and put it on, slightly covering her glaringly pale face. "I can do it. It's okay."
Dahei walked in front and went up the mountain with the two bipeds.
After leaving the fenced courtyard, Ying Xixi discovered that Xiao Sui's small mud house was built at the foot of the mountain, very close to the back mountain, and there were no neighbors around.
As for Lotus Village, it is a little ahead.
Ying Xixi couldn't help but guess that Xiao Sui must have come here to live in seclusion because of something.
To go to the back mountain, one will pass by the backyard of the small mud house. Ying Xixi's eyes lit up when she saw the vegetable garden in the backyard.
"Mr. Xiao, you planted a lot of vegetables, and they all look great."
Xiao Sui raised the corner of his lips and said, "I think it's good too. Go pick some of what you want to eat later."
"Okay!"
The two men and the dog went up the mountain, and Dahei took them to the place where he found the prey.
It is a trap that was not dug by humans.
Xiao Sui took a look inside. The trap was quite deep. It looked like there was an animal inside. It must have accidentally fallen in while passing by.
Xiao Sui jumped down and quickly brought up three hares, two pheasants, and a roe deer.
Because there is soil under the trap, there is nothing sharp.
These prey were all alive.
Xiao Sui took out a rope, tied up their feet, and put them in the bamboo basket that Ying Xixi was carrying.
Ying Xixi was pushed backwards by the weight.
Seeing this, Xiao Sui grabbed Ying Xixi's collar with one hand and held the bamboo backpack with the other.
"You probably can't carry it if you forget it. Let me do it."
Ying Xixi: “….”
The two men and the dog continued walking on the mountain and met villagers from Lotus Village on the way.
Ying Xixi originally thought that Xiao Sui might not have a good relationship with the villagers.
It turned out that her assumption was wrong.
"Xiao Xiao, come hunting. Who is this girl? I've never seen her before."
The person asking the question was an old man.
"Uncle Zhang, this is the maid I bought a few days ago."
"Maid, Xiao Xiao, Uncle Zhang doesn't mean to criticize you, but you're not young anymore, why don't you get married if you have money?
Why spend money to buy a maid?
There are so many girls in our village who like you and are willing to marry you, but you look down on them.
If they knew that you would buy a maid even if you didn't marry them, they would definitely come to your house to make a fuss."
Xiao Sui smiled and said, "I don't want to get married. Women are too troublesome."
Old man Zhang winked at Xiao Sui and said, "That's because you haven't experienced the feeling of having a wife and children and a warm bed!"
Xiao Sui laughed dryly, "Uncle Zhang, I'm busy hunting. I'll be leaving first."
Xiao Sui took Dahei and Ying Xixi and walked forward for a while. He turned around and looked at Ying Xixi, then he suddenly realized.
Ying Xixi's face was covered in dirt at some point, and she didn't look very pretty anymore.
No wonder Old Man Zhang didn't say anything.
"Mr. Xiao, is there something on my face?"
Ying Xixi didn't understand the look in his eyes.
"There's mud on your face."
Ying Xixi wiped her face, and the mud on her face was spread more evenly.
Xiao Sui couldn't help laughing, "Don't wipe it off. Go back and wash it later. Your face is more scratchy than a kitten's."
Ying Xixi: “….”
The two men and the dog walked around the mountain, killed another roe deer, and then went back down the mountain.
Ying Xixi didn't rush to wash her face. She went to the vegetable garden to pick some vegetables first.
She has decided to eat spicy rabbit meat for lunch and dinner!
For vegetarian dishes, you can stir-fry eggplant and potatoes, and garlic rapeseed.
If Xiao Sui feels that the food is not enough, he will add two more dishes.
After Xiao Sui returned, he took a shower in the yard first.
He looked at Ying Xixi running excitedly towards the vegetable garden and curled the corners of his lips.
"Dahei, go help her pick some vegetables. I think this might be the first time she's seen vegetables growing in the ground."
