Li Xiyue squatted on the ground, looking at the bloody hole on the pheasant's body. The more she looked, the more she felt that it resembled Gao Xiulin's injury.
She had a bold guess: Zhou Yutong's soul had been scattered, but could her supernatural abilities still be intact?
If that's the case, then that's fine too. Zhou Yutong has occupied Zhou Yunxia's body for so long and bullied her brother for so long, so her special ability should be given to Zhou Yunxia as compensation.
"Xiaoxia, tell me the truth, how exactly did you manage to catch that pheasant?" Zhou Yunze asked on the way back.
Zhou Yunxia thought for a moment and then said, "When it flew over, I picked up a twig and killed it by sticking it in."
"Is it really such a coincidence?" Zhou Yunze asked, half believing it.
Zhou Yunxia shook her brother's arm, "Of course! Otherwise, how could I have caught such a big pheasant?"
It wasn't that she didn't trust her brother, but rather that she herself hadn't figured out what was going on, so she decided not to tell him and make him worry.
Anyway, she can control the branches, and as long as she doesn't reveal it on a regular basis, no one will know.
On the contrary, she could use this ability to go hunting in the mountains and improve her and her brother's lives.
“Brother, I will definitely make sure you live a good life in the future,” Zhou Yunxia said.
Zhou Yunze smiled, "As long as you're doing well, I'll be satisfied."
At the foot of the mountain, Erniu and Laidi were digging up cogon grass roots with small hoes.
"Laidi, has your mother been beating you and your sister even more severely lately?" Erniu asked.
Lai Di winked and said, "My sister and I don't go near my brother, so he can't falsely accuse us, and my mom can't find a reason to beat us."
Erniu smiled happily, "My grandma is cured. I've learned so many things from Sister Li. Sister Laidi, do you want to study medicine too?"
"I don't want to learn, it's too hard." Lai Di shook her head.
Erniu asked, "What do you want to do in the future?"
“I want to have an endless supply of sugar and meat, and I want to make money,” Lai Di said.
Erniu nodded. "Have you decided what you want to do to make money?"
“My sister and I can weave straw sandals and flower baskets. We recently made some secretly, and my older sister took them to the black market to sell. She made a lot of money, but my mother doesn’t know.” Lai Di said in a low voice, “Even if my mother doesn’t feed us anymore, we won’t go hungry.”
Erniu became uneasy upon hearing about the black market. "Isn't the black market dangerous? Isn't it unsafe for Sister Pandi, a girl all alone?"
“It’s okay, my older sister went dressed as a boy,” Lai Di said.
Erniu hummed in agreement and sighed, "If only we could do business openly and honestly in the future."
“Yes, it would be great if we could do business openly and honestly, instead of having to do it secretly,” Lai Di said.
As the two sisters were talking, they heard strange noises coming from the woods nearby. Afraid that it was a wild animal, they didn't dare to look. They dug up some food and were about to go back when they saw a man and a woman emerge from the woods.
"Erniu, are you saying that the educated youth brother who was sent to the cowshed and the village secretary's sister went into the woods?" Li Xiyue asked in surprise.
Erniu nodded her little head, "Yes, that bad brother must be doing something bad. Could Sister Hongmei have been deceived by him?"
Xu Hongmei is the youngest daughter of the village secretary. After graduating from high school, she became a teacher at the commune's primary school.
Li Xiyue was surprised that Erniu knew so much at such a young age, but Erniu's understanding of doing bad things was not the same as her own understanding of doing bad things.
“Your sister Hongmei is an intellectual, she shouldn’t be fooled by a bad brother, right?” Li Xiyue comforted her.
