Chapter 26 Stay Away from Huo Zhiqing
Yu Wanqing smiled and said, "I bought some meat. I'm going to treat the educated youths and the captain uncle to dinner tomorrow."
Everyone in the field heard her words. One aunt whispered to the people around her, "She spent money to build the house, and now she's buying so many things. She looks like a spendthrift woman."
"That's right, who would dare to want a daughter-in-law like this?"
Auntie Zhou, who had just been talking to Yu Wanqing, looked at the others and said, "You can't just have a lesbian like her just because you want her."
After saying this, she started to work.
One by one, they are commenting on Yu Zhiqing and daydreaming. They don't think about which family in the country can raise a girl as beautiful as Yu Zhiqing. It's obvious that she is not from an ordinary family. Who can afford to marry such a girl? Who can they choose?
Everyone just smiled when they heard this, and no one dared to refute Aunt Zhou's words. This was the daughter-in-law of the brigade secretary, and if they offended her, they would be afraid of having to pick up dung tomorrow.
Yu Wanqing had fenced off her private plot of land outside. She parked her bike outside and was about to open the door when she saw Huo Lanci walking over from his house. "Did you buy any meat?"
Yu Wanqing smiled and nodded: "I bought it."
After opening the door, she went to take the things off the bicycle. Seeing this, Huo Lanci hurried forward to help.
Putting the things on the eight-immortal table, she said, "Today I just bought some pork belly and some bones for making soup tomorrow, and I also need to go into the mountains to get some pheasants and rabbits."
Huo Lanci didn't think much about it and said slowly: "I'll go with you."
"I have earned ten work points today." He was assigned to open up wasteland today. He was strong and fast, and finished the work in one morning.
Yu Wanqing nodded: "Okay."
"I'll go into the mountain first, you come back after lunch, I'll wait for you along the same road we took last time." Going into the mountain together would cause unnecessary discussion, so it would be better to go separately.
After lunch, Yu Wanqing went out with her backpack on her back. Zhang Hongqi knew she was going into the mountains, so he pulled her aside and whispered, "Be careful, don't go deep into the mountains."
Yu Wanqing nodded: "Don't worry, I won't go into the mountains."
She walked along the same path for a while before she saw Huo Lanci. He was also carrying a backpack, but it was much bigger than hers.
Yu Wanqing took out two meat buns from her backpack: "You haven't had lunch yet."
There are many ready-made meat buns in the Space Supermarket, and there is an induction cooker in the lounge where you can just steam them and eat them.
Huo Lanci took the bun and thanked him. As he walked, he asked curiously, "You went into the mountains alone last time. Weren't you afraid of encountering danger?"
"The last time was purely an accident. I really just got lost. I learned some Kung Fu from my father when I was young. As long as I don't meet a big group of people, I can handle it." The little guy wanted to test himself.
Last time I said I was lost, even if you ask a thousand times, you will still be lost.
There was no need for her to hide the fact that she knew Kung Fu. Considering the time she beat up Gu Xiaoru, who would believe that she was a delicate and weak person?
Huo Lanci smiled faintly, thinking to himself: Only a fool would believe that you are really lost.
When he encountered the wild boar that day, he was only concerned with killing it and did not realize any problems at first. On the way back, he remembered that she was too calm at the time. She did not look afraid, but rather confident.
She was sure that she would be fine.
So, he was just meddling in other people's business that day, as they could have handled it themselves.
Huo Lanci, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and pulled Yu Wanqing behind him to hide for a while.
He threw the sharpened stick in his hand to the side.
Yu Wanqing looked in the direction of the wooden stick and saw that it was nailed to a big tree with a snake hanging on it.
She opened her mouth and looked at the man who was still holding her hand: "Huo Zhiqing, you saved me again."
After she finished speaking, her ears turned red, and she didn't forget to look at his hand holding hers.
Huo Lanci came back to his senses and let go of her hand without a word: "Be careful, there are a lot of poisonous snakes around now."
Yu Wanqing nodded: "Okay."
Huo Lanci continued to walk in front. When he thought of the hand he had just held, his ears turned red and his hands tightened and loosened unconsciously.
Yu Wanqing looked at his back and smiled with the corners of her lips raised.
In fact, she had already discovered the snake.
If he didn't take action, she would use her wood-based abilities to send it to death.
But his reaction was beyond his expectations.
Speed and reaction far exceed that of ordinary people.
What kind of family can raise a son like this?
She had never met such a beauty in her previous life, but now that she had met him here, she couldn't let him go. Only the one who was under her quilt would be hers.
Huo Lanci was the first to spot a pheasant. He threw a palm-sized stone at it and the pheasant died instantly.
Yu Wanqing thought about the idea that had just occurred to her, and she asked, "Is there any water nearby?"
She had heard the sound of running water, so there must be a source of water nearby.
Huo Lanci held the pheasant in his hand and nodded: "Yes, do you want to kill the pheasant now?"
"Smart." Yu Wanqing said with a smile: "Roast the pheasant, and then continue hunting."
"Sure." Huo Lanci led her to the stream as if he knew the way.
Then Yu Wanqing saw him take out a pot from a bush, and then he moved a few stones together, started a fire, boiled water, and killed a chicken.
His speed was so quick and efficient that Yu Wanqing didn't have to do anything at all.
She squatted beside him and watched him work: "Did you prepare this pot?"
Thinking of the big water tank and the large and small iron pots in his new home, all of them were brought by Huo Lanci.
After he brought it back, she realized that no ticket was needed, only money.
It seems that this person has a lot of connections and can get so many things at once.
Huo Lanci nodded: "Sometimes I don't want to go back to cook."
"Today I'll let you try my skill in roasting chicken." He smiled and said, "I learned this by roasting a lot of pheasants."
When Huo Lanci took out the salt, Yu Wanqing realized that this guy came prepared. Even if she hadn't suggested it, he would have come here to get food.
"So, you killed the pheasant on purpose?"
Huo Lanci tore off a chicken leg and gave it to her, then nodded: "Yes."
Yu Wanqing recalled what Auntie Zhou said when she was at work. Auntie Zhou asked her to stay away from Huo Lanci. She said Huo Lanci was not easy to get along with. Although he looked gentle, he was actually vicious. When he first came to the Five Stars Team, he caused a big sensation because of his face. Many girls liked him at that time.
A girl came up to him and said she liked him and wanted to date him.
He talked the little girl to tears.
Yu Wanqing ate while looking at Huo Lanci: "Huo Lanci, I heard that as soon as you came to the Five Star Brigade, there were girls who wanted to date you."
"You even scolded him and ran away."
Huo Lanci looked over suddenly. She didn't call herself Huo Zhiqing just now, but Huo Lanci.
The moment I heard it for the first time, my heart was touched, and suddenly I felt that my name sounded very nice when she called it.
He nodded: "I don't like her, why would I date her? I rejected her, but she kept asking me why I didn't like her."
"If you don't like it, then you don't like it. What's the excuse? If she doesn't want to hear nice words, then I can only say something to wake her up."
