Chapter 216 Taking the girl for a stroll

Apart from a few hunters in the village, anyone else who wants to catch them can only try their luck.

That fat wolf is something else; once it goes into the mountains, it never comes back empty-handed.

"Why are you catching so many? The chicken coop is already overflowing," she said helplessly, rubbing her forehead.

Dad didn't mind the hard work; he used every spare spot next to the pigsty to build a chicken coop. Once those animals squatted down, there was basically no space left, so where could he put these wild chickens?

Wolf Overlord stretched elegantly. "If the chicken coop can't hold them all, then just eat them all. It's that simple."

After saying that, it swaggered into its room to catch up on sleep.

In Yang Guilan's view, all she saw was her big fat dog rolling its eyes at her sister-in-law and howling a few times.

Thinking that it was an odd number of days at Jianxuetang today, so it seemed like they should eat meat, Wen Luozhi casually picked up two meats and walked outside.

"Sister, what should we do with all this left?" Yang Guilan asked.

Wen Luozhi turned around and said, "We'll keep four of them for lunch to make beggar's chicken, and the rest can be made into smoked chicken to eat slowly."

"Second sister-in-law, have breakfast first, and we'll clean up together when I get back," she said before heading out.

Seeing that it was still early, Yang Guilan called Wen Ziming and his wife to start cleaning up the pheasants.

When Wen Luozhi arrived at the school, everyone was already busy. When they saw her carrying two pheasants, they joked, "This girl Luo has brought meat again! It's time for us to eat meat today!"

A young woman who was washing a pot looked over and couldn't help but glance at Wen Luozhi, who was standing there so beautifully.

Wen Luozhi suddenly saw a strange face, and noticed that the person was staring at her, but didn't seem to have any ill intentions.

She smiled slightly at Zhang Yun, who immediately blushed and lowered his head.

This girl is so beautiful, she looks so charming. No wonder Afu wants to let go but can't.

She glanced at Afu and saw that he was just digging the ground with his head down and doing nothing else.

Seeing her youngest son's reaction, the village chief's wife felt a little relieved. Zhang Yun had come to help so that he could spend more time with Afu.

Thankfully, my son lived up to expectations and didn't do anything to hurt the girl's feelings.

She stepped forward, smiling, and took the two pheasants. Then she picked up the large scale and weighed them. "Little Luo, we'll give you the price in town."

"Your uncle said that if you bring meat again, he can't accept it for free; he can't let you suffer a loss."

After weighing the meat, she took out the copper coins that everyone had pooled together that day, and there were still a dozen or so left. "We were just saying we were worried about going to town to buy meat and coming back late!"

"You've delivered it just in time!"

She stuffed two strings of copper coins into Wen Luozhi's hand, and Wen Luozhi took one string and left with half of it.

"Our big dog chased them up the mountain, so we couldn't collect that many. We'll save the rest for when we buy meat next time."

After saying that, she turned and left without waiting for the cooks to say anything more. The village chief's wife, holding the half-finished copper coin, was torn between chasing after her and not chasing after her.

"That's just the kid's temper, let's just let it run its course. We can eat the cabbage buds we have now, can't we?"

The village chief took a puff of his pipe and said to his youngest son, "Afu, take Xiaoyun to the field to pick some later and send it over. Your Uncle Wen's family has guests coming over today, so it would be nice to have a bite to eat."

"Take Xiaoyun around for a bit; your brother's working here, no rush."

Those who were working understood what the village chief meant, and they all said to Afu, "Why don't you take the girl for a walk? It's her first time here."

Afu seemed a little lost. Zhang Yun put down his shovel, walked up to him, and said with a smile, "I was just thinking of taking a walk around the village too. Brother Afu, shall we go?"

Afu didn't answer immediately, so the village chief kicked him in the butt and yelled, "Get out of here and go pick vegetables!"

The girl's been so proactive, what's this silly boy standing there for? If she gets wronged here, Old Zhang will fight him to the death!

Afu rubbed his bottom, glanced at Zhang Yun a little embarrassed, and said, "Well... let's go then, I'll show you around."

Zhang Yun laughed, fearing that it would be too embarrassing for Afu to reject her in public.

She's easily embarrassed, but for some reason she wanted to stand up today; thankfully, she managed to save face.

The village chief and his wife were relieved after the two left. Everyone could tell that the two children were shy, and only now that they were gone did they say, "These two children look like a perfect match."

"Absolutely! We have to make the most of this opportunity!"

"I like this girl because she's quick and efficient!" said an auntie.

The village chief's wife covered her mouth and chuckled. How could the girl she had her eye on be wrong?

Meanwhile, the two picked vegetables and headed towards Wen Luozhi's house.

Wen Luozhi was training the wolf Batian in the yard. The two were surrounded by colorful flowers, and the girl's silvery laughter could be heard from time to time.

Even a young girl like Zhang Yun couldn't help but smile at the sight and sounds, let alone Afu.

Sure enough, when she looked over, she saw Afu looking at the girl amidst the clusters of flowers, his smile incredibly gentle.

"Oh, what brings you here, Afu? Come in and have a seat!"

Wen Muchuan was working on the mud for making lotus leaf chicken when he saw a girl standing outside next to him putting down her shovel and opening the fence.

Afu quickly looked away and handed over a basket of cabbage seedlings. "This morning, Sister Luozhi sent us some pheasants and charged us less money. Our vegetables are ripe, so my dad asked me to pick some over."

Wen Muchuan accepted the gifts and welcomed the two into the courtyard, saying, "Don't be so polite! You worked so hard to grow all this, and you brought so much with you!"

He warmly welcomed the two into the courtyard, and Afu introduced them to Zhang Yun as they walked.

Upon entering the courtyard and seeing its interior, Zhang Yun's gaze lingered on the unfamiliar flowers, and she couldn't bear to look away.

Wen Luozhi dismissed Lang Batian, seeing that she liked it, and said, "If you like them, pick out a couple to take back later. My older brother is growing some for me."

Wen Ziming took great care of the flowers and plants she liked, and Li Chunxing was also constantly worried that they would wither and die.

The sunlight shone on the girl's face, and her small, egg-like face seemed to be coated with a layer of golden light.

Zhang Yun blushed and her heart pounded after just one glance. "No...no need, I definitely can't raise it properly."

She quickly waved her hand to politely decline, saying that the flowers grown by the beautiful woman were so lovely that she herself would not be able to grow them.

Afu was talking to Wen Muchuan, but he seemed distracted, his eyes glancing at the two girls from time to time.

Zhang Yun was also watching him, but she knew he definitely wasn't looking at her.

She had inquired about Wen Luozhi before and knew that she had heard of her but had never met her.

I met her today and spent some time with her. Who wouldn't like a girl like that? I like her even though she's a woman.

Just listening to her speak is already very pleasant.

"Would you like to come with us to the orchard? Our hilltop is really fun, and we'll make sure you eat your fill of fruit."

When talking about her own fruit, Wen Luozhi felt a surge of pride. Who else in the surrounding villages could have a mountain of fruit?

Who in the surrounding villages has a mountain that's covered with fruit trees?

Only their family!
