Dragging the wolf down the mountain exhausted almost all of Nan Zhi's strength. Even though her body had been transformed by the spiritual spring water, it couldn't withstand such an ordeal.
After dragging the wolf back to the courtyard, she collapsed to the ground, exhausted. She quickly took out some spiritual spring water from her spatial storage and drank it, instantly washing away all her fatigue.
Eight wolves were neatly arranged in the small courtyard, leaving Nanzhi bewildered.
We've had our fun, so we dragged it back, but what should we do with this thing?
If the system were still around, I might be able to buy some money to spend, or even have the system help me with something.
But now, Nanzhi really doesn't know what to do.
I've never killed a chicken before, but I accidentally killed a wolf and now I'm at a loss about what to do with it.
Should we boil water to scald the feathers first, or should we gut them first?
Remember to lay the chicken down first when you're killing it, then boil water to scald the feathers, and pluck the feathers before proceeding to the second step.
But when killing a rabbit, the first step is to skin it.
From this perspective, the first thing to do is to skin the animal before it dies.
Nanzhi took a kitchen knife from the kitchen and brandished it at the wolf.
Damn it, I can't bring myself to do it.
Thinking of her bloodied hands from peeling the skin, Namgyal gave up.
Give it to Song Hanyan when he returns.
Eight wolves should fetch a good price.
Nanzhi never expected that her careless act of dragging the wolf back would cause such a commotion in the village.
"Oh my, Hunter Song's hunting skills are already very good, but I didn't expect that girl Nanzhi to be even more amazing."
"I didn't realize that Nan girl was so amazing."
"What's so impressive about that? Your husband's family will look down on you for being like this. How can a woman be more capable than a man?"
Several old ladies gathered together, thinking that Nan's husband was a ruthless hunter who killed without blinking an eye. If Hunter Song became dissatisfied, the girl's situation would be dangerous.
The old ladies exchanged worried glances.
These past few days, the second son and his mother-in-law have been arguing at home, and Zhao Hui doesn't want to stay any longer.
I came out for a walk after dinner to clear my head, but I didn't expect to hear such a thing.
The wolves in the mountains are not easy to deal with; that girl actually managed to take on eight of them.
Eight wolves have plenty of meat, and with their pelts, they could fetch a good price.
So she walked back quickly, and when she ran into Li Xunfang on the way, she didn't argue.
Li Xunfang watched in surprise as Zhao Hui walked past her. She had been prepared to fight her and had even thought of what to say first, but she didn't expect Zhao Hui to just leave like that.
Judging from their hurried steps, something big must have happened.
Li Xunfang thought for a moment and then quickly followed.
"Mother, Mother!" Zhao Hui called out as soon as she got home.
Shu Zhizhen had just settled her second son and wanted some peace and quiet, but then she heard this annoying noise again.
"What are you doing! What are you yelling for? Can't I even take a break? You annoying piece of trash."
Shu Zhizhen never used to curse her like this; she always cursed Nan Zhi as that little slut. After Nan Zhi left, her mother-in-law only allowed her to curse her.
Zhao Hui looked aggrieved, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Shu Zhizhen didn't care about any of that. Nan Wenqing had taken another five taels of silver when he left. If this continued, the Nan family would eventually be unable to hold on, and she had to find a way to get some money back.
"Speak up, why are you mute again?" Shu Zhizhen said irritably.
Zhao Hui took a deep breath, suppressing her grievances, before recounting everything she had overheard on the way.
Shu Zhizhen exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"
Zhao Hui nodded solemnly. She had heard it from several old women at the village entrance. Those old women were very well-informed, so it was probably true.
“Let’s go,” Shu Zhizhen stood up. She was just worried about not having any money, and now this money was delivered right to her door. “Go find her. There are so many wolves in the sea. That good-for-nothing should at least give some money to her mother.”
Zhao Hui happily followed behind her mother-in-law, waiting for her to dominate the battlefield.
"Nan girl, is this really what you fought back?" Zheng Xinghai asked in disbelief.
Nanzhi never expected that bringing back eight wolves would cause such a commotion.
A crowd of people surrounded the courtyard, all there to watch the spectacle.
"Village chief, this is the one I hit."
Zheng Xinghai wasn't afraid of the wolves. He circled around them, looking at them with curiosity.
"How did she fight them?" He didn't believe that a skinny girl could fight eight wolves.
A few years ago, some people went up the mountain to hunt wolves, but they didn't even see a single wolf, let alone a shadow.
Those who were lucky enough to see them never returned; they were most likely eaten by wolves.
Nanzhi:······
She couldn't very well say that she was killed by hitting someone with a book; even she wouldn't believe that herself.
Several old women at the village entrance came to join in the fun, but like everyone else, they stood outside the courtyard, watching from afar, and dared not come in.
"To say that Nan is a lucky girl is true. She brought back eight wolves as soon as she got married to help support the family."
"But wolves take revenge. If Nan girl kills a wolf, what if the remaining wolves come back to the village?"
After he finished speaking, the crowd quieted down a little.
Yes, the wolf was killed by Nan Yatou. What if the wolf comes back for revenge and hurts them?
Nanzhi heard dissenting voices in the crowd and said, "Don't worry, everyone, I will definitely take full responsibility for this matter."
Chen Yan also came to watch the excitement, and when she saw Nan Zhi being praised by the villagers, she couldn't help but feel jealous.
So he interjected, "What guarantee do you have? You were the one who killed the wolf. If the wolf hurts someone, wouldn't that be taking the blame for you?"
"Yeah, what can a little girl like you do?"
Immediately, other villagers echoed this sentiment.
Zheng Xinghai also thought of this problem.
“Zhizhi,” Zheng Xinghai called out affectionately, “what do you think we should do about this? We can’t just keep everyone staying in their rooms and not coming out.”
