Chapter 35 Arranging Things for the Family
After a while, Cheng Feng came to the cave entrance with a frown. He first looked at the two wailing people and then at Xiaobai in Su Nuan's arms.
A trace of shock appeared on his face. This woman could even tame a tiger. No wonder women are often called tigresses.
He coughed dryly and said, "Since you want to keep this tiger, keep an eye on it. If it hurts anyone for no reason, I will kill it."
"Also, these two people plotted something bad in the middle of the night. They were taken away, locked up, and starved."
"Yes!" The soldier did as he was ordered and dragged the two men away.
Cheng Feng looked around and said, "Everyone go to sleep. What are you looking at? Do you want to test whether the tiger cub's claws are sharp enough?"
Everyone hurried back to their residence.
Seeing that Xiaobai was well-behaved, Cheng Feng reached out to touch him.
However, after he met those murderous tiger eyes, he withdrew his hand in embarrassment. The little thing was quite fierce.
But this little beast seems to treat Su Nuan differently. He is as docile as a little lamb and he really knows how to repay a favor.
He said, "Since it listens to you, keep it. I have the final say in the team now."
Su Nuan's face lit up with joy, "That's great, with it I can enjoy it often."
Cheng Feng knew what she was talking about, so he smiled and said, "I can't do it. When you're done, send it to me, or find Li Shitou. He's my distant nephew. Even though he's just a soldier, no one dares to mess with him."
Only then did Su Nuan know Li Shitou's identity. She had been wondering how a small soldier like him could be so comfortable in the team.
"Okay, I understand."
Cheng Feng turned around and walked a few steps before stopping and asking, "General Ling...how's Boss Ling?"
Su Nuan saw the worry on his face, which showed that he had a relationship with Ling Cang, so she said, "He won't die."
Cheng Feng sighed heavily and left without saying anything.
Su Nuan rubbed Xiaobai's head, thinking that it would be great if he could use his mind to get a fish out of the space river.
Just as she was thinking about it, a big carp, weighing more than ten pounds, appeared in front of her.
Su Nuan quickly said, "Take it away and eat it. I'm going back first."
After receiving the order, Xiaobai immediately knocked the big fish unconscious with one claw and took it away to enjoy.
Su Nuan suppressed the ecstasy in her heart. It turned out that she could catch fish without going into the water. It was so convenient. She returned to the cave with a happy face.
Xue smiled and said, "I originally wanted to go out and help you, but I was afraid of ruining your performance, so we decided to just be spectators."
The old lady said worriedly: "If you need us to do anything, just tell us. Don't bother us. We are all family."
Su Nuan nodded, "Actually, you don't have to intervene, and don't worry about me getting angry. If there's anything I need, I'll definitely tell you."
Now the family must be united, and we can no longer let Xue feel that she owes us anything and always be cautious.
She added, "Grandma also said that we are all family. If you really want to follow my orders, then when I don't call you, just pretend you didn't see anything and let me deal with those people on my own."
Xue frowned and asked dissatisfiedly, "You're alone? What should we do then? Wouldn't that make us use you as a pawn?"
They can't just stand by and watch.
Su Nuan thought for a moment and smiled, "How about this, mother, you and grandmother will take care of Tuantuan and take care of her husband."
"I'm going to take Xiaobai hunting tomorrow. We can catch some pheasants and rabbits. There's a pond on the mountain. I think there are fish there. We'd be fine if we can catch some."
"Give my husband more fish soup. Eating fish will help him get better faster. As for my uncle... just let him stay at the door and watch over the house."
Ling Yun, who was playing with ants on the side, "..." Are you treating me like a dog?
Su Nuan looked around and asked, "How about this arrangement?"
Xue pursed her lips, not wanting Su Nuan to leave, hunting was too dangerous.
And although Xiaobai is a tiger, he is so small and his teeth are not fully grown yet. What can he catch?
Ling Cang, who was awake, said, "Just do as she says. Now we are all a burden."
Su Nuan stood up and looked at him and said, "No one is a burden. You need to recover your strength quickly. If you can move your hands, weave baskets. I see there are quite a few willow trees."
"Oh, by the way, the bark of the willow tree can be used as medicine. I'll go pick some back."
When Su Nuan thought of willow trees, she remembered that willow bark can relieve fever and pain, so it would be a good idea to save some.
In the end, everyone compromised and followed Su Nuan's arrangements.
Su Nuan went back to catch up on her sleep, ate a quick bite in the morning, and left with Xiaobai.
The rain today is not heavy, but the weather is quite cool, and many people in the cave must have caught a cold.
Su Nuan peeled the willow bark and collected all the medicinal herbs she saw on the road. If the bag couldn't hold them all, she would put them in a space and smuggle them out when she returned.
After entering the mountain, Xiaobai first looked towards the cave, and then went into the woods.
Su Nuan searched for half a day and found a pool of water. It looked very deep and the water was very turbid.
She smiled and said, "With this pond, I can tell you where the fish came from when I take them back. Whether others can catch them or not is none of my business."
Su Nuan took out two fish weighing five or six kilograms. She tied a straw rope to the fish's tail and passed the other end through the fish's gills and mouth, bending the fish's body into a bow shape, which could extend the fish's survival time.
She looked at the sky and saw that it was already past noon, so she took out two buns from the space and ate them while walking down the mountain.
When we reached the foot of the mountain, Xiaobai also came back with two fat hares in its mouth.
Su Nuan saw blood on Xiaobai's mouth and knew that it had eaten its fill. She asked, "Is it for me? Let's go back."
Xiaobai refused to leave and looked at her with his head tilted.
Su Nuan immediately understood that this guy was asking for water.
Thinking that it would be inconvenient for it to move around the cave during the day, he said, "I'll take you in, and you can drink some water by yourself. I'll let you out at night to watch over the gate."
Xiaobai nodded humanely in agreement.
Su Nuan put Xiaobai into the space. When she picked up the wild rabbits, she found that one of them had a big belly, as if it was pregnant.
Fortunately, the rabbit was not dead. She threw the rabbit into the space and carried another rabbit back to the cave.
Xue and others were relieved to see Su Nuan come back.
"I'm glad you're back. You always make me nervous when you go out. We actually have enough food to last for several days. There's no need to take risks."
Su Nuan comforted him, "Mother, the young eagles have to be pushed out of the nest by their own mother to practice flying. It's not a good thing for you to always restrain me."
"It's not like the past when we could just stretch out our hands and eat whatever we want. We need to learn a lot of skills to make our lives better."
Xue also knew this. She sighed and looked at Su Nuan with eyes full of heartache, but she didn't know what to say.
Ling Yun walked in from outside, holding a newly woven basket in his arms, "Sister-in-law, there are delicious things, delicious things."
Su Nuan raised her eyebrows and looked at the basket. This sight made her laugh. Can this be eaten?
