Xu Qiudong had calmed down. She looked at Song Chiyou and asked seriously, "Are you saying these things because I saved you and paid off your mother's debt?"
Song Chiyou lowered his head silently. He didn't want to lie.
"Yes, you saved me and paid off my mother's gambling debts. I thank you."
"I have nothing, so I can only repay you for saving my life with myself."
Xu Qiudong seemed angry and slammed her chopsticks on the table. She stood up and walked back and forth a few times, trying to calm down.
Song Chiyou was so frightened that he lowered his head and dared not breathe.
After a long while, Xu Qiudong calmed down, sat back on the stool, and said calmly, "If you really want to repay me, stay and cook for me. I really like your cooking."
Song Chiyou nodded obediently, "Okay."
Seeing how well behaved he was, Xu Qiudong felt no anger. He reached out and rubbed his head, then said with a smile, "Eat quickly."
"Um."
Song Chiyou was no longer afraid and started to smile.
After eating, Xu Qiudong rushed to wash the dishes, put on a straw hat, picked up a hoe, and went to work in the fields.
Before leaving, Xu Qiudong reminded Song Chiyou, "I'm going to pull the weeds in the field. You stay home and don't wander around."
Song Chiyou nodded.
When Xu Qiudong came back at noon, dinner had already been prepared at home, the clothes had been washed and hung out to dry, and the quilts were drying on the rope.
"You're back, hurry up and wash up and have dinner."
Song Chiyou brought the food to the table and said, "I rolled some noodles. Let's make do with it for now."
"Next time, tell me what you want to eat and I will prepare it."
Xu Qiudong washed his hands and said, "The noodles are pretty good."
After eating and resting for a while, Xu Qiudong took the bow and arrow and went out with the little wolf cub.
"I'm going to the mountains to hunt some game. Do you want pork or rabbit?"
Song Chiyou was sitting in front of the main room, sewing clothes. When she heard this, she smiled gently and said, "It's all right."
Xu Qiudong didn't say anything more, just nodded and left.
It was almost dark when Xu Qiudong arrived home. She had a bow and arrow on her shoulder, a large cage in her hand, and a little wolf cub following behind her.
Song Chiyou hurried forward and wanted to take the cage from Xu Qiudong, but found that he definitely couldn't lift it.
In the end, he could only give up and turned around to pour a cup of hot water for Song Chiyou, "Hurry up and drink some water to warm yourself up."
Xu Qiudong put the cage outside and drove the wolf cub back to its den.
Then he walked in front of Song Chiyou. Xu Qiudong bent down, blew on the steaming water, and took a small sip. "Put it aside for now. It's too hot. Drink it later."
Song Chiyou's face was already red, and he obediently put the water on the table beside him.
"Why are you back so late?"
Xu Qiudong explained, "The little brat ran around like crazy, so he came back a little late."
The innocent wolf cub who took the blame: ...
It was obviously you who came back late because you were chasing that fox, and in the end you lost it.
Xu Qiudong turned around, washed his hands, and asked him, "Are you scared of being alone at home?"
Song Chiyou shook his head, "I'm just a little worried about you."
Xu Qiudong dried his hands, pinched his chubby cheeks, and said, "There's nothing to worry about. I've been running in the mountains since I was a child. It's okay."
Song Chiyou lowered his head shyly.
She is such a nice person, and I don’t know who will be lucky enough to meet her in the future.
After dinner, Song Chiyou deliberately avoided one thing. He hid in the kitchen to wash dishes.
