Chapter 56 Chapter 56
Inside the house, Youmi and Gousheng ate some dried meat and ended their game of house.
It was at this moment that Ansius opened the door and entered the room.
Yumi was caught off guard and blushed immediately: "When...when did you come back?"
"...Just got back." He put down the medicine box and snacks, his eyes wandering between Yumi and the little wolf cub.
If Yumi is the mother, then it seems that there is nothing wrong with the little wolf cub being the son.
Yumi didn't even dare to think whether Anxius had heard her acting. It was too scary... But seeing that Anxius looked normal, it should be that he hadn't. Yumi immediately brushed off the non-existent dust on her hands as if nothing had happened, and went to look at the snacks that Anxius had brought back.
Antheus looked at him: "Would you like something to eat?"
Youmi shook his head: "I'm full, I'll eat tomorrow." After finding the delicious food, he suddenly remembered something important. He quickly went over to pick up Gousheng and said, "Gousheng can go to the toilet by himself! He used to use the bathroom when no one was in the bedroom. It's not that he can't poop!"
This was unexpected news. Ansius glanced at the wolf cub. Although it didn't look lively, its head was no longer droopy. It was much better than before. Maybe it was because of the house wine he played with Yumi, but its eyes looked more lively than before.
Yumi really brought the little wolf cub back to life.
The medicine I bought seems to be useless now.
This is a good thing. If the wolf cub is healthy, Yumi will be happy. If Yumi is happy, Ansius will no longer worry.
When going to bed at night, Youmi was particularly excited. In fact, it was not the first time that he had raised such a sick animal. When he was a child, he went to his grandmother's house and once picked up a baby bird that had fallen under a tree. He took it home and took care of it with the adults, but it died within a few days.
Grandma said that the little bird fell from such a high nest and was already seriously injured. It would be a miracle if it could be saved. There aren't so many miracles in the world, so just do your best.
At the market, Youmi did not buy the wolf cub immediately. In fact, he hesitated. He was certainly not stupid. He could tell at a glance that the wolf cub was not in good condition. If he took it home, he would probably have to face bad news just when he had developed feelings for it.
But in the end, Yumi decided to take the little wolf cub home.
The life of a little wolf cub was negligible here, but when he saw it, he could hold it in his arms like a child. It was a real, warm life, and Yumi loved it, so even if he had to repeat the same mistake, he would take it away.
Yumi, lying on the bed, couldn't fall asleep for a while. He was very moved by Gousheng's improvement. He would stick his head out every once in a while to see if Gousheng, who was in the hospital, was sleeping.
Gousheng was not sleeping. He also kept his head up and kept watching him. Every time Yumi looked at it, it would shake its head in response.
"That's great." Yumi shrank back into the quilt, her eyelashes trembling slightly, "It seems that Gousheng will not die."
Anxius was stunned, obviously not expecting him to say such a thing. He thought Yumi didn't know about Gousheng's situation.
But the reality is quite the opposite.
Yumi knows everything.
A moment’s silence.
"He will grow up well." Anxius promised softly that even if Gousheng died young, he would try his best to find an identical replacement for Gousheng.
He only had eyes for Yumi.
"Well! Good night Anxius, good night Gousheng!" Yumi smiled, turned off the lights, and closed her eyes happily.
In the dark night, Ansius turned sideways and looked at Yumi, his thoughts still immersed in the other's house wine.
Spring is here, and Yumi's hair is growing lush and furry. Ansius quietly buried his face in her fluffy hair and took a deep sniff. Before falling asleep, he raised his eyes and glanced at the wolf cub not far away.
The little wolf cub also fell asleep and was snoring.
The small doghouse looked like a crib. For a moment, Anxius really thought that Gousheng was his and Yumi’s child…
Hugging Yumi tightly and kissing each other's face, Anxius had a good sleep.
Since that day, Gousheng seemed to have completely escaped from the gates of hell, and his condition was getting better day by day.
A week later, the wolf cub, whose legs had not yet fully healed, stubbornly took the initiative to be discharged from the hospital.
Yumi was a little worried at first, but when she saw that it could take care of itself, she didn't care.
Not to mention animals, even for humans, walking more during the recuperation period is good for physical and mental health. However, the farm is now full of chickens, and Yumi is worried that the chickens will be eaten by Gousheng. Therefore, every time Gousheng goes out, he follows the wolf cub like walking a dog, and turns over the dried meat and fruits in the yard.
Yumi has also started making dried fruits. In addition to some wild fruits picked during hunting, most of the fruits are bought from the market. In short, the farm has more and more homemade snacks, life is getting better and better, prisoner escapes almost no longer happen, and there are basically no "second imprisonment". Everyone has learned the skills and can be considered talented. Who has the energy to cause trouble?
On this day, Ansius went to the town to exchange for a new truck. It was said that the previous truck was damaged by the explosion in the town. Yumi was very worried when she heard about it. She waited until the town returned to peace before letting Ansius go out - Yumi now thinks that she is Ansius's military advisor, so the prince always listens to her!
Carl: Indeed, it was the little treasure of the empire that we found after three visits to Yanglu!
While Gousheng was basking in the sun, Youmi was fiddling with her dried fruits. After fiddling with them for a while, she turned around and was suddenly startled by the scene over there.
Gousheng had run to the chicks at some point, and was now accelerating and rushing towards them with precision... Yumi's heart was in her throat, and she was about to rush over to stop him, but was stunned by the next scene.
Gousheng had already rushed to the chickens, but he did not open his mouth to bite them. Instead, he drove the chicks that had strayed away back to the flock, and then turned around to drive the chicks that were trying to get close to the vegetable field away from the edge of the field...
Yumi: This...
Is Gousheng herding chickens?
This was indeed the case. For a period of time afterwards, Gousheng had no intention of attacking the chicks. Instead, he carefully "managed" the flock of chickens, promptly blocking the illegal chicks from approaching the vegetable field, and even ran into the chicken coop to drive the lazy and weak chicks out to bask in the sun and participate in activities...
Yumi: “Amazing…”
Since Gousheng was so smart and sensible, Youmi was relieved and gave him the position of "Chicken Captain" on the spot, with daily salary paid in dried meat!
After paying Gousheng his salary, Youmi took some dried fruits and went for a walk near the farm gate. After walking a few steps, she saw the familiar dancing ants.
The old friend Dancing Ant came over carrying some fresh flowers. Dancing Ant would come to play with him these days. Every day he saw Yumi holding the little wolf cub in the sun, and he thought that these were Yumi's own cubs. Today, these flowers were a gift.
Yumi had no idea what the dancing ant was thinking, so she happily took the flower and said, "Thank you." Then she fed it some dried fruit.
This dancing ant loves dried fruits. It takes a bite, puts it down, and performs a shy dance.
The prisoners running nearby: "Hey, the dancing ants can also perform?"
Yumi/Dancing Ant: "..."
At six o'clock in the evening, everyone who had gone out returned.
Ansius drove back a brand new giant truck, the top of which was remodeled to look like Yumi's former secret base in the town. At first glance, it didn't even look like a new car.
Just like before, he brought back some boxes. When he got off the car with the boxes, he saw Gousheng chasing the chicks back to the chicken coop. One of the chicks was in a bad condition and couldn't walk, so he picked it up in his mouth and trotted to the chicken ward in the chicken coop...
Anxius paused, and Mei Kai and the others were also dumbfounded.
Immediately afterwards, after hearing Youmi say that the number was wrong, Gousheng actually turned around to look for it. After a while, he really found one behind the tree!
Everyone: “…”
Ansius's attention didn't stay on the wolf cub for long. He went over to close the chicken coop and took Yumi back to the house to eat strawberry cake.
In the yard, a group of people were stunned. Karl carefully asked Ye Xi: "This kind of mountain wolf also has the ability to herd chickens?"
Ye Xi smiled awkwardly: "Wolves are different from each other, right? Yumi is still a Sna star, but it is rare to see a Sna star who is 1.7 meters tall..."
Lin En didn't find it strange: "It's normal for Yumi to bring up a little wolf cub like this."
Like parents, like children. Gousheng is so enthusiastic and loves to take care of things, obviously he inherited the habits of his mother... oh no, his master Youmi!
After a few more days, the little wolf cub, who could eat, drink, run and herd chickens, grew stronger and stronger, and no longer looked like a dying wounded creature.
Today is hunting day, and Youmi decides to take Gousheng with her.
There are no mountain wolves among their prey, so there is no need to worry about causing psychological trauma to the little wolf. Just go and watch like Yumi, and take the opportunity to learn how to hunt. After all, most of the prototypes used when hunting are in the shape of animals, and Gousheng can learn from these tactics! When he recovers and returns to his hometown, he will not lose his ability to survive.
The others had no objection at all. After all, Yumi hadn't participated in hunting for a long time. Hunting would not be as fun without Yumi's encouragement.
Yumi holds a very high status in the hunting team!
This time when he went out, Ansius carried Yumi in a cloth bag and hung it in front of him, just like he did before at the market. The little wolf cub depended on its owner, and they could also nestle in it and peek in to watch the hunt.
Yumi was holding the little wolf cub. He used the monster's high field of vision to watch the intense hunting process. From time to time, he pointed out the handsome movements of his little friend like a teacher and asked Gousheng to remember them. Sometimes, he would explain them for fear that Gousheng might not understand... He was really worried about Gousheng.
However, contrary to expectations, the little wolf cub looked at the exciting scene of hunting without any emotional fluctuations.
Yumi: ...The little wolf cub must have lived with the big wolf for several months and is already used to hunting scenes!
After everyone finished hunting, Yumi finally had a chance to appear. Ansius first gently carried him to the ground, and then casually put down the cloth bag with only the wolf cub left.
Yumi pulled out his gun and shot his prey one by one without blinking: Super pepper spray! Shit at you!
After doing all this, Yumi turned around and saw the little wolf cub crawling out of the cloth bag trembling. It looked at him with admiration, its little eyes blinking, and it looked so excited.
Yumi frowned, then looked at her water gun: ...You like water guns? But your claws can't shoot.
Gousheng: “Awooo?”
Taking Gousheng hunting was useful. After this hunt, Yumi felt that Gousheng was wilder than before. When he saw a bird trying to steal the dried meat or hurt the chicken, he would jump out like a fly, and he seemed to want to tear the bird to pieces! But he soon came back limping... his leg was not fully healed yet.
Yumi is relieved: He looks like a wolf now! Come on, Gousheng!
During this period, Youmi has been accompanying Gousheng in his recovery, and gradually gained a deeper understanding of the habits of mountain wolves from Ye Xi... It turns out that many of Gousheng's behaviors are not something that mountain wolves would have.
There is no such thing as helping to manage chickens!
Ye Xi said: "I think what Lin En said makes sense. He may have been influenced by you."
Everyone knows how much Yumi values the chicks he raises, so Gousheng works hard to help him manage them.
Yumi, however, understood it to mean something else.
In the world of wild animals, it is rare for disabled animals to recover. If a cub is injured, it almost means death. Does Gousheng feel that he is dependent on others and is afraid that he will be abandoned if he doesn't work hard? So he walks around the farm every day even if he limps, and scares the birds that come to the vegetable garden...
Because during the "hospitalization", Gousheng saw Youmi and others doing this every day.
I’m afraid this is also the reason why I need to learn to use the toilet!
...a poor little wolf cub living under someone else's roof.
At first, Yumi, who had experience of living under someone else's roof, did think so, until something happened the next day.
Ansius went out early in the morning. Recently, new RVs were being sold in the town, so he planned to buy one and take Yumi out to play for a few days.
Yumi watched Ansius leave, and when she returned to the house, she suddenly found that the sleeping dog, Gousheng, had gotten up at some point. It seemed to know that Ansius was gone, and it limped to Ansius's cabinet, picked up the watches that looked valuable, the jewel-studded pendants and a stack of cash, and put them on the cloth bag where Yumi usually sat.
Yumi: “?”
Ansius's cabinet was never locked, and his watches, pendants and accessories were almost always worn by Yumi when he was matching clothes for him. The little wolf didn't know that the one who used that cabinet most frequently was actually Yumi.
When it saw Yumi coming, it didn't panic at all as if it was caught. Instead, it hummed and reminded the other party to hide the things quickly, as if they were accomplices.
“…”
While Yumi was in a daze, Gousheng set his eyes on the key to the basement again.
To be more precise, it was targeting Ansius' boxes. During this period, the little wolf often saw Ansius bring back mysterious boxes and put them in the basement when he came back from town. Its thinking was simple: there must be a lot of money in them.
Yumi is the youngest among these people, and it is not easy for her to make money!
In order to successfully go to the basement and steal the box for his owner, Gousheng even stole a piece of Ansius's clothing and put it on himself. He naively thought that he would not be recognized this way, so he quickly picked up the key and sneakily led Yumi to the basement.
Perhaps the scene before her was so shocking that Yumi thought she was overthinking it, and she just followed it and walked forward in a daze.
Along the way, it naturally attracted a lot of people's attention.
Both Carl and the prisoners were shocked by the little wolf cub wearing Ansius's clothes.
What the hell?!
Karl thought he was dreaming and rubbed his eyes hard.
He watched the little wolf pull Yumi to the basement door, then drop the key, run back to the bedroom and take out Ansius's wallet. He rushed back to Yumi without looking around, as if he was going to run away with his master and the money.
The corner of Karl's mouth twitched: "..."
Such a familiar taste.
Yumi: “…”
…It turned out to be exactly what he thought. Yumi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
What is Gousheng thinking about all day long?
Could it be that he was the one who led Gousheng astray while playing drinking that day?
Yumi: Guilty!
Urged by Gousheng, Carl came over. He asked the little wolf cub with a slight smile: "Excuse me, are you trying to usurp the throne?" You are so bold to think of kidnapping the prince, the little darling of the empire, with money!
Little Wolf Cub:?!
Finding that he couldn't hide it anymore, Gousheng shook off Anxius's clothes, stood in front of Yumi and started howling: "Awoo!!!"
Translation: If a son does not serve his mother, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
