"Whatever he thinks, it's none of my business." The ring ran to the water's edge and saw, wow, a whole row of them, all fully loaded. "Master, how many have you caught? I'm so busy here."
Qiao Qiu glanced at the bucket beside her. "Not bad, let's catch a couple more. If you really can't manage, use your magic."
"I don't need magic. If they can break free, let them go. They've already been given a chance at life and death," the ring said indifferently.
Qiao Qiu looked up at the sky, nodded, and agreed with his idea.
Ji Rufeng was still worried about Qiao Qiu, so he returned quickly. The rabbits and chickens he was carrying were completely unharmed, clearly hunted using magic.
Seeing that she was alright, I could clearly feel a sense of relief.
Qiao Qiu glanced at what was in his hand, made a couple of swipes with her fingers, and tossed the two pheasants aside, tying them up.
The rabbit was tossed into the air, spun around several times, and its fur fell to the ground.
Qiao Qiu waved her hand again and washed it clean with water.
With a wave of his hand, Ji Rufeng set up a simple grill, and a stick automatically pierced the rabbit's body, which then landed on the grill.
Qiao Qiu snapped his fingers, and the dry firewood spontaneously combusted.
"Having magic is great; many steps can be skipped." Qiao Qiu withdrew her hand and continued to hold the fishing rod with both hands.
"It smells so good." Ring sucked on her saliva, her eyes shining as she squatted in front of the grill, her fingers twitching, but she didn't dare touch it because it was too hot.
"It's getting late, let's eat less this time, otherwise we won't be able to eat when we get back," Qiao Qiu said.
"Oh." The ring seemed a little regretful. Although it had eaten a lot of wild game in this world, it hadn't eaten much of what its master roasted. Every time it ate it, it was unforgettable, and it smacked its lips in remembrance.
It's okay, they'll be in this world for a long time, no worries, he'll eat his fill.
After catching the fish and grilling the meat, Qiao Qiu made three glasses of freshly squeezed juice.
Next, a low table was placed on the ground and embedded in the floor to ensure it wouldn't tip over. A large cloth was placed under the table, and three soft cushions were laid on top of the cloth.
The three of them sat down around the table on cushions.
Qiao Qiu waved her hand again, and the plastic gloves were ready.
The ring smiled wryly. "If the people here saw this, they'd definitely be shocked, wouldn't they?"
"I wouldn't say I was startled, but I was definitely wondering what it was like." Ji Rufeng tore off a piece of rabbit leg and handed it to Qiao Qiu. He knew that this was her favorite food, but in her past life in the demon realm, she had always given it to him.
Qiao Qiu didn't stand on ceremony with him and started eating.
Of course, you should cherish your younger brother, but you should treat your husband differently.
Of course, Qiao Qiu didn't share the same thought process as Ji Rufeng at all.
She just happily started eating.
Ring picked off another rabbit leg and ate it with relish, his mouth greasy with oil.
Ji Rufeng didn't touch the flesh of the forelimbs, but instead tore off a piece from the back.
The three of them had a hearty meal there before heading back with a large pile of stuff.
Dong Yu was pleasantly surprised to see that they had brought back so much.
Qiao Qiu conjured a stove right next to the table, cleaned the fish with magic, and put it in the pot to cook.
She added a lot of ingredients to the pot to remove the fishy smell and make the fish soup taste even better.
Dong Yu was amazed and started catching chickens.
The ring ran to his side and said with a smile, "Uncle, let me help you."
"You just watch from the side, be careful not to get hurt." Dong Yu's tone was very doting on him; he seemed to really like this little nephew.
Despite his small size, he is more perceptive than many adults.
This was a conclusion he reached after inspecting his own house.
The ring laughed, "I'm not afraid of it, I'm afraid it will hurt you."
As he spoke, he then touched the pheasant's body with his finger, and it immediately turned its head away, died, and its feathers fell to the ground.
The ring conjured a bucket, which it placed under the chicken's neck. The ring then made a cut on the chicken's neck, causing blood to flow freely.
Dong Yu watched the whole thing, and he just held the chicken with both hands without moving an inch.
"Xiao Jie is really amazing. He's so young, yet he already knows how to kill a chicken and get its blood." Dong Yu was ashamed. When he was Xiao Jie's age, he would run away in fear at the sight of a chicken being killed. He only learned how to kill one later, for his wife's sake. It's said that women in postpartum confinement need to eat chicken and drink chicken soup.
He was worried about getting only one chicken a day until he saw dozens of chickens in cages in his backyard.
Dong Yu truly had no way to repay her elder sister.
The ring smiled and said, "My mother taught me this."
"You're so young, why is your older sister teaching you this?" Dong Yu frowned slightly, somewhat worried.
“When Mother was unwell before, and Father wasn’t around, I was the only one who could do it,” the ring explained.
When it's inconvenient?
Dong Yu's eyes narrowed. Her elder sister was a goddess. When would she ever have a time when she was inconvenienced?
The ring said, "Uncle, don't overthink it. Many things are in the past, and there's no point in dwelling on them. Although my mother sometimes seems gentle, she is definitely a person who is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside."
"Xiao Jie has thought things through very well. Okay, we'll listen to you." Dong Yu felt sorry for Xiao Jie, who was so sensible at such a young age.
Once the chicken was cooked, Dong Yu took it to the kitchen.
This was the only thing Qiao Qiu hadn't done. Qiao Qiu and the ring had the same idea: to see how well Dong Yu's chicken soup was made.
Since I promised Chixia I'd take care of Roland, I should put in the effort.
Ji Rufeng sat in the courtyard brewing tea and looking at the fish soup.
Qiao Qiu glanced at him and walked towards the main house.
As soon as Qiao Qiu reached the front of the room, she heard noises coming from inside.
She thought for a moment, then raised her hand and wiped her forehead, covering the mark of the demon god.
She has only recently given birth, and emotional distress is not good for her health; it's best not to let her know too much.
Qiao Qiu pushed open the door and went inside.
Roland was taking care of the child when she heard the sound and turned around. When she saw Qiao Qiu, she was still smiling, but tears involuntarily streamed down her face.
Qiao Qiu closed the door, walked to the bedside and sat down, "Seventh Sister."
"Big sister!" No matter how much pain he was in, Roland forced himself to sit up, hugged her, and started crying.
Although Qiao Qiu had never given birth, she knew that women have sensations after childbirth.
She raised her hand and used her divine power to strike Roland, healing her with her divine power.
Even if she doesn't recover to the original state, it would be great if she could just be free from pain.
Roland felt the change in his body and hugged Qiao Qiu even tighter, choking back tears, unable to say a word.
For so many days, her biggest worry was her eldest sister. When she gave birth to the baby today, she saw her eldest sister, but she didn't get a good look at her.
So much so that when she woke up, she didn't even know if it was a dream.
It wasn't until she noticed the changes inside the room and heard the lively sounds outside that she realized what was happening.
Before her older sister came in, she kept telling herself that she must smile when she saw her.
But when I actually met the person, that bittersweet feeling was amplified to its maximum.
