Chapter 210: Chapter 206: Bird: You Know What? After Pooping, I Got Erect

Wen Ran discovered that Xiao Chenye is like a perpetual motion machine—you unlock the plus version with just a kiss.

In the afternoon, Wen Ran didn’t do a thing, yet Xiao Chenye single-handedly caught a dumb elk, and a two-meter-long speckled snake.

Additionally, he cornered a nest of rabbits, captured two wild chickens, and took a dozen or so wild chicken eggs.

It was quite a bounty.

If Xiao Chenye had a tail, it would have turned into a rotatory propeller by now.

“Come on,” he leaned his face over, “give me a kiss as a reward.”

Wen Ran pursed her lips, and chuckled a series of ’hehehe’.

Yes, it was an abnormal kind of laugh.

It was somewhere between a sneaky and a cheeky laugh.

Just as Xiao Chenye was puzzled, she had already grabbed Xiao Chenye’s head, aimed at his cheek, and gave him a bite.

“Ouch~~~”

The sound of agony sent the birds in the trees flying.

The birds flapped their wings and flew away, rustling.

One bird seemed particularly dissatisfied with Xiao Chenye, flew straight to his head, and precisely dropped a dollop of turd.

When it landed, it even steamed warmly.

Wen Ran stared at the absurd scene in front of her, dumbfounded.

“Ahhhhh!”

Xiao Chenye broke down, “Damn it! I’m going to kill you right now!”

Pulling out a slingshot, Xiao Chenye took aim, and shot at the bird in one seamless motion.

The bird fell, and Wen Ran’s arrogant laughter echoed through the forest.

Upon reaching the creek, Xiao Chenye took a bath, lit a fire, deftly plucked the feathers, and roasted the bird.

Despite trying to suppress her laughter, Wen Ran didn’t miss a chance to tease him, “Oh my, look at that petty nature of yours. It’s just a bird poop, isn’t it?

You killed the bird, and while it’s still warm, you’re burning it.”

Xiao Chenye grumbled, “Pooped on my head, and now I’ll make it my own poop.”

Wen Ran: “…”

So disgusting!

She didn’t even look, just randomly grabbed something from the basket and threw it out.

The dead speckled snake went limp and was flung out by Wen Ran.

Screams simultaneously rang out!

Echoing through the forest.

Wen Ran was disgusted by the snake. Even though she could now accept snake soup, she was still hesitant about grabbing a snake herself.

As a result, one mistake, she grabbed something sturdy.

As for Xiao Chenye…

He was purely out of fright.

He could hunt snakes, catch them, eat them, but that didn’t mean he could watch one limp dead snake fly toward his face.

The forest adventure, despite joy, almost pushed the two into PTSD.

Wen Ran swore, if she ever had the chance, she would absolutely not climb the mountain with Xiao Chenye again.

This unlucky fellow…

Perhaps Wen Ran’s shouting attracted a pack of wolves, and the leader came directly with its subordinates to offer tribute.

With two fresh sika deer in hand, Wen Ran thought, with this kind of life, whoever it’s given to could still live prosperously.

There were too many game animals; bringing them down the mountain would draw too much attention.

Wen Ran and Xiao Chenye set a trap and hid the elk and sika deer inside, taking only a big piece back home to eat at night.

The rest will be dragged back when the moon is high and the wind is strong.

Of course, to prevent carnivorous animals in the mountains from exploiting the situation, Wen Ran didn’t forget to bribe the pack leader to keep watch.

The two went down the mountain, concluding the thrilling day trip.

That night, they naturally dined at the Xiao Family.

Mrs. Xiao had also noticed that ever since Ranran moved to the countryside, getting closer with her family, their life had become increasingly prosperous.

She even considered, once spring plowing ended, to find ways to get some incense and paper money before Qingming Festival.

To quietly pay tribute to her ancestors at home, and comfort them with the news of a good daughter-in-law.

Hongguo and Xiao Chenxing were studying.

It wasn’t that Xiao Chenxing suddenly had a change of heart, falling in love with studying.

She was horrified to realize that since Hongguo began studying, it had only been a mere three months.

This progress…

Had already caught up to her.

Shameful, truly so shameful.

She could accept Hongguo being better than her, but not in three months learning almost what she had in nearly ten years!

Continuing this way makes her seem both stupid and foolish.

Whimper whimper…

“Auntie, how’s the food?”

“Almost done, you worked hard today, why are you in the kitchen? Go take a rest, the snake soup is about to be served.”

“Let me help you.”

“No need,” Mrs. Xiao laughed cheerfully, “You’ve been busy running around the mountains, and you’re tired. I have nothing much, not going to the fields, just cooking and tidying up the courtyard.

Compared to most people my age, I’m much happier. Go rest, Auntie’s got this.”

For a family to thrive, living prosperously.

One must contribute actively; relying solely on being old will get you nothing but excuses without actions!

Care is mutual, the more she cares for the children, the more they’ll care for her!

Mrs. Xiao had clarity in her heart.

After shooing Wen Ran out of the kitchen, Mrs. Xiao shouted for her own old man to get moving.

As the moon climbed the treetops, this meal was about to be served.

“Come, come, everyone sit and eat,” Mrs. Xiao said with a glowing face, “Once we’re full, there’s more work waiting!”

“Yes, indeed!”

At the thought of the dumb elk and sika deer still on the mountain, everyone got a bit excited.

If not for the thought that it was still early, fearing someone might stumble upon them during a stroll, they would’ve rushed up the mountain.

Looking at the newly built blue-brick tile house, then at the delicious meat and dishes on the table, Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao exchanged glances, their eyes shimmering with tears.

Recalling the hardships of youth, they felt these good times were like a dream.

“Eat,” Mr. Xiao picked up a piece of meat for Mrs. Xiao, his tone deep, “When I married you, I promised good days ahead…”

In the end…

“This is the good life now,” Mrs. Xiao said, smiling earnestly at Mr. Xiao, “Marrying you, I’ve never regretted it.”

The old couple looked at each other, their eyes wet with tears.

Wen Ran continued to munch on meat, mumbling, “Uncle, Auntie, if you keep staring like this, I’ll have eaten all the meat.”

The old couple: “…?”

The two were speechless; after all, in their youth, they had been inseparable.

They wonder how this younger couple…

Oh well!

As long as Wen Ran is around, she always manages to disrupt the atmosphere.

Initially thinking eating meat was false, turning their heads, they saw Wen Ran chomping on meat.

The old couple: “!!!”

“Hey, don’t eat so much, too much meat at night can cause indigestion!”

“It’s okay, we’re about to go back up the mountain to carry things.”

Mrs. Xiao: “…”

So much sense.

She quietly picked up a piece of meat for Wen Ran, “Eat more.”

A silly kid at home eats more, gets stronger!
