Chapter 45: Possessed by the God of War, Lots of Prey
Before Xiao Chenye had the chance to go over and show concern for Wen Ran, he was called away by Xiao Chenguang.
He was a little unconvinced, "Why?"
Xiao Chenguang glared and lowered his voice and said, "What are you talking about? Serious business!"
Xiao Chenye understood immediately that it was Li Chenggang's.
He told her everything he had found out during this period, no matter how big or small.
After talking for a long time, I was thirsty and asked, "Is it done? Is it enough?"
Xiao Chenguang patted Xiao Chenye on the shoulder and said, "You are really good, this is a lot of information, enough for you to use. I will notify you if there is any new information."
After that, he paused, a bit of worry on his face, "Don't tell my second sister about his affairs for the time being. I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it for a while."
"Don't worry," Xiao Chenye would not do such a thing so recklessly, "I know what I am doing."
"Okay," Xiao Chenguang asked Wen Ran with concern, "Is the young educated youth okay?"
Speaking of Wen Ran, Xiao Chenye's eyebrows softened a little, "It's okay now, the temperature has dropped, just take her back and feed her with good food and drink for a few days."
"Come on, I see you are in Cao's camp but your heart is with Han. I won't waste your time any more. Come in and take a look."
"Okay!"
Xiao Chenguang just showed up, said hello and left. Xiao Chenye hurriedly packed up and took the mother and daughter back home.
Originally, Wen Ran thought that he could just go back home, but Xiao's mother wouldn't let him go.
"Oh, why are you so stubborn? If you go back alone, who will take care of you? Are you counting on Walnut?"
Walnut?
"Pfft~" Wen Ran couldn't hold it back and laughed, "Forget it, Walnut Road is not stable enough."
Xiao's mother agreed, "You're right to think so. What if someone has a headache or a fever and something happens in the house and no one knows about it? This time, Lao Wu, the dead kid, happened to be in trouble. What about next time?"
This rhetorical question completely routed Wen Ran.
"Just in case, if it happens to someone, it will become ten thousand!"
Okay!
Wen Ran raised his hands in surrender, "Aunt, please stop talking, I will listen to you."
"That's right! I haven't moved into the room you lived in before, so you can continue to live there and take good care of your health. I usually take care of Chenyue and the children at home during the day, so it's just a side job for me."
The old lady was quite heroic, and Xiao Chenye couldn't help laughing when he heard it, and came over to tease her, "Yes!
It is the same whether you release one sheep or a flock of sheep."
Xiao's mother silently picked up the sole of her shoe and slapped it twice, "You little bastard, you are the poorest!"
~
Wen Ran still had a low fever. After arriving at the Xiao family, she felt exhausted. Xiao's mother cooked a pot of millet porridge and asked her to drink it before going to sleep.
"Cover yourself up thickly and sweat a little. When you wake up at night, you'll be fine."
While tucking her in, Xiao's mother muttered, "Get well soon, so that you can enjoy your food when you drink chicken soup at night."
Wen Ran looked at Xiao's mother and couldn't help feeling a lump in his throat.
Maybe it's because sick people are particularly vulnerable.
At this time, if you have someone you can rely on, you can't control yourself.
She sat up and hugged Mother Xiao, her voice full of tears, "Aunt Xiao, you are so kind, thank you."
Thank you for letting me experience what it feels like to be a mother.
Mother Xiao was also sad, and stroked Wen Ran's back, "Hey! My dear child, we are not uncomfortable!"
Wen Ran was very quiet when he was sleeping, like a little angel. Xiao's mother watched him for a long time before she got up and went out. As soon as she closed the door, she saw her son lying like a donkey pulling a millstone.
Wandering around people's doorsteps.
Hiss~
For some reason, she suddenly felt that her silly son was not worthy of the educated youth Xiao Wen.
Xiao Chenye didn't know that he was disliked by his own mother, so he leaned over and asked, "What's wrong? Are you asleep?"
He poked his head in like a thief, "Can I go in and take a look?"
Xiao's mother slapped her son's face and covered half of it, "Shameless bastard, the little girl was sleeping, why did you go to see her?
You are a hooligan! "
"Mother!" Xiao Chen howled wildly, "You are slandering me."
"Yeah, yeah," Xiao's mother perfunctorily asked Xiao Chenye about his battle record, "How was it? Today, I took the Red Army up the mountain to hunt. How did you get?"
Harvest?!
If you talk about this, Xiao Chenye will be excited.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Mom, I'm not bragging. Today, your son, the God of War, has possessed me. Guess how much stuff I brought back."
Xiao's mother didn't care. Xiao Chen was wild and said casually, "Eight cows, seven mules, and six horses."
Xiao Chenye: “…”
He was speechless, "Seven pheasants, six rabbits and a stupid roe deer."
Mother Xiao stamped her feet and turned her head, "Are you teasing me?"
"It's just lying there."
Father Xiao didn't dare to disturb the other person's tenderness. He could only act like a ruthless killing machine and slaughter them.
Hearing this, he raised his head, with two messy chicken feathers stuck in his hair, "I'm not lying to you, it's true, come and help clean up the meat, otherwise, all the good things will be wasted."
There was a sound of rain outside. Except for Wen Ran who was recuperating from her illness and Xiao Chenyue who was in confinement after giving birth, everyone else was busy cleaning the meat.
Xiao's mother has even figured out what to do with the meat. Since the family is not short of money, the meat will be kept for their own consumption.
Apart from the fresh meat we are going to eat tonight, the rest will be pickled, smoked, and some will be kept to make jerky.
I can send some to Chenxing later, and also take some back to the military camp with that damn kid Xiao Chenguang.
As for the beautiful chicken feathers, they can be made into shuttlecocks, and the rabbit skins and roe deer skins can be tanned to make gloves, hats, and knee pads, which are good for keeping warm in winter. Anyway, nothing is wasted.
This is how farmers live, budgeting carefully and feeling the romance and warmth in life day by day.
The team leader came by once during the trip, and what a coincidence it was, he had just cleaned up the meat and hidden it.
He came here to ask about Wen Ran's situation, "How is that girl?"
"The high fever has subsided, but he still has a slight fever," Xiao Chenye whispered, "He is sleeping in the house now."
"Okay, it'll be fine once the fever subsides," the captain sighed, "This child is really good, if your family can take care of him, please do more."
"Well, it's not up to you to tell me."
After all, he is the one with evil ambitions and ulterior motives, so we should take better care of him.
"Squeak~" The door opened, and Wen Ran walked out. Facing the surprised gazes of the two, he calmly extended his hand, "No, uncle, stop praising me~
This flashy thing is useless, let's do something practical!"
The captain was numb, "When did you wake up?"
“Hehehe, when you praised me,” Wen Ran smacked his lips and said with emotion, “To be honest, I think it’s quite rare.
Uncle, is there a time when you praise me?
I thought that in your eyes, I was the epitome of cunning, lazy, greedy and slippery.”
Captain: “…”
He is not!
He didn't!
