Dinner was another very lavish meal, including chicken soup, stir-fried chicken, chicken giblet soup, and chicken blood. To ensure a balanced diet, Lin Ye also stir-fried two kinds of green vegetables.
This was at Lu Wanqing's request.
Lin Ye always tried to prepare meat and eggs for Lu Wanqing so that she would eat well, believing that this was the proper way to cook. However, Lu Wanqing told him that meat should be eaten, but in moderation, and vegetables should be the mainstay of the meal.
With meat at every meal and not lacking in oil, I actually prefer eating vegetables more now.
Luo Hao and Luo Chunlei, however, did not think so. With so many people in their families, the little bit of meat they cooked was gone in a single chopstick, while they were desperately short of it.
"Brother Ye, take me hunting in the mountains tomorrow," Luo Hao suddenly said.
Ever since he was injured, Aunt Luo had forbidden him from going to the back mountain, but this time he was determined to go with Lin Ye no matter what.
These days, he hasn't saved much money in his savings account. Besides, without wild game, he has no reason to go to the county town.
"Brother Ye, Second Brother, if you're going, take me with you." Before Lin Ye could agree, Luo Chunlei said.
When he was a child, he would go to the back hill to play, but he rarely went there after starting junior high school.
Since we're all free during the National Day holiday, we might as well watch how the forest is used for hunting.
He had heard his second brother mention his hunting skills, such as catching live wild deer and digging up forests, countless times.
"Okay, come find me tomorrow," Lin Ye readily agreed.
The two Luo brothers ate their meal with gusto, their bellies round and full.
After the meal, Luo Hao noticed a bowl of chicken that Lu Wanqing had specially set aside on the table. He assumed it was for them to take home, and quickly said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, please keep the chicken for yourselves. We really can't take any more."
Lu Wanqing: "..."
She didn't intend to give it to anyone! It was meant for Lin Xiaocui.
“This bowl of chicken is for Xiao Cui. She’s my personal errand girl, so she has to eat well,” Lu Wanqing said directly.
As for the claim that her family didn't give her any food, she figured no one would believe it if she said it, so she didn't mention it.
For Lin Xiaocui, there was no point in celebrating National Day. She preferred to stay at school, where she felt more at ease and could at least have enough to eat.
Luo Chunlei paused for a moment after hearing Lu Wanqing's words. So, she was chatting happily with Wang Xu and the others to get orders?
Perhaps his understanding of her was indeed somewhat superficial.
After Luo Hao and Luo Chunlei helped clear the dishes, they sat and chatted for a while before going home.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Wanqing decided not to go for a walk and instead stayed in the courtyard talking with Zhao Xiaolan.
The snowballs were at their feet, freely releasing their boundless energy.
Half an hour later, Elaine Chao felt sleepy and went to bed.
The weather is getting cooler, so there's no need to shower every day.
But Lu Wanqing and Lin Ye had moved things today and were covered in sweat, so they needed to take a shower.
The river water had cooled down, so they definitely couldn't go anymore. Lu Wanqing then asked Lin Ye to boil a large pot of water, and she washed herself at home.
"Mom's still inside, I'd better go wash by the river." Lin Ye was a little embarrassed.
"Mom's asleep, she can't see. You're not afraid I'll see, are you? I've seen every inch of your body, what's there to be shy about?" Lu Wanqing punched his hard chest.
Lin Ye felt a surge of heat flowing through his body.
"Then you go first." Lin Ye squinted his eyes.
Lu Wanqing immediately understood what he meant and said coquettishly, "I know, I'll be done washing soon."
She chased Lin Ye out while she was taking a shower.
Being able to watch him shower doesn't mean that I want him to watch me shower too.
She quickly crawled into bed after washing up.
Lin Ye changed the water and started washing himself, using Lu Wanqing's soap to make his body smooth and refreshed.
After drying himself off, without even emptying the basin of water, he crawled into bed and blew out the kerosene lamp.
"The water hasn't been poured yet?"
"We'll talk about it tomorrow."
I really don't know whether to praise him for being efficient or for being slow.
He couldn't wait to embrace Lu Wanqing's smooth body and start kissing her, which didn't stop until late at night.
The next morning, the two were sleeping soundly in each other's arms when they heard a "thump-thump" sound coming from the window.
"What time is it? Still sleeping!" Luo Hao shouted from outside.
Lin Ye pulled his hand away from in front of Lu Wanqing, turned his head and glared at the window, "Luo Hao, you son of a bitch, you only have a whole day, why did you have to come over and block my bed!"
To reassure Lu Wanqing and allow her to get dressed, he insisted on getting up first and kicked Luo Hao and Luo Chunlei out of the courtyard.
"You two wait outside!"
The two bachelors looked at each other, completely bewildered by the satisfaction of finally being able to sleep in with their wives.
Because he was disturbed in the morning, Lin Ye was in a bad mood all day and was irritable with Luo Hao, not even wanting to take him hunting.
"Brother Ye, you've got quite a temper!" Luo Hao rolled his eyes at him, seemingly unafraid of death.
Lin Ye, who was walking silently ahead, ignored him and was still thinking about what Lu Wanqing had just told him.
"Aye, you're going hunting and won't be back by noon. I'll go to the brigade headquarters and measure the house dimensions to prepare for the renovation."
Last night, the two of them discussed it and decided that the first step in getting the house back would be to renovate it and buy some ready-made furniture, so they could move in before the end of the year.
When I go to sell wild game this time, I'll ask Tiger and the others if they have any old mahogany furniture.
He wasn't particularly good at sweet talk; he could only prove how much he cherished his wife through his actions.
Along the way, Luo Hao and Luo Chunlei chatted on and on, while Lin Ye was lost in his own thoughts.
Soon, the group entered the deep mountains and dense forests. The sun overhead, through the gaps in the dense leaves, cast only a few sparse rays of light.
The ground was covered with damp, rotting leaves, and the temperature was several degrees lower than outside.
"We've been walking for so long, how come we haven't even seen a pheasant?" Luo Chunlei wrapped his coat tighter around himself.
He had no experience venturing into the deep mountains, and Luo Chunlei told him to wear an extra sweater, but he refused, and like Luo Hao, he wore only a T-shirt and a jacket.
But his small frame, which he focused entirely on studying, was far smaller than his two older brothers.
Luo Hao smiled and said, "Don't rush. If hunting were that easy, the mountains would have been hollowed out by everyone long ago."
Hunting has always been a dangerous activity. Ants in the forest are larger than elsewhere, and a bite from one can be very painful. Not to mention tree leeches on the leaves, which can easily crawl into your pants and be sucked into your flesh.
There are also wild boars that could appear at any time. Last time, Liu Jie was lucky that everyone arrived in time to save him, otherwise he would have been torn to pieces.
Just as the group reached a downhill slope, they heard a rustling sound behind them.
The group stood ready, expecting their prey to finally appear.
To everyone's surprise, a small white ball appeared on the hilltop; it turned out to be Snowball, who had followed them up.
Lin Ye waited for it to run to his feet, then scooped it up, looking at it with disgust, and said, "Why did you run here?"
