Chapter 22: Deaf old lady's help, hunting skills, roast chicken

Qin Huairu nodded hurriedly, took out a cloth bag from her bosom, and respectfully handed it to him.

"Old lady, look, here are four hundred yuan, is it enough?"

The deaf old lady took the money, weighed it, counted the amount, and then nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, that's enough. I'll do it right away. Don't worry, Zhong Hai and the others will be out soon."

Qin Huairu and the auntie felt relieved after hearing this and thanked him repeatedly.

"Then, old lady, we will take our leave first. If you have any instructions, please come to us."

Just as the two were about to leave, the deaf old lady suddenly called Qin Huairu

She looked Qin Huairu up and down, her eyes sharp and her tone meaningful:

"Huai Ru, I was surprised that your Jia family could come up with this much money."

As soon as these words came out, Qin Huairu's face changed immediately. She lowered her head in panic and stammered to explain:

"No, no, old lady, this money is saved by our family through hard work and it was not easy."

In the eyes of the deaf old lady, this money was entirely paid by the Jia family themselves.

You know, the Jia family is notoriously poor on weekdays. They pretend to be poor and miserable all day long and rely on Yi Zhonghai and He Yuzhu for support.

Even the daily food, clothing and other necessities were taken advantage of by these two suckers.

Therefore, the Jia family didn't spend much of their own money.

This time when Jia Dongxu got into trouble, he had no choice but to pay out such a large sum of money.

In the eyes of the deaf old lady, this could be considered a lesson for the Jia family.

However, there is one thing the deaf old lady doesn't know -

This money was entirely contributed by her most beloved grandson He Yuzhu and her most valued eldest son Yi Zhonghai.

If the deaf old lady knew the truth, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood!

"Okay, you guys go back first. I'll send someone to inform you if there's any news." The deaf old lady waved her hand, indicating that Qin Huairu and the aunt could leave.

As soon as the two men left, the deaf old lady staggered out of the house with a cane and waved to He Yuzhu who was basking in the sun in the yard.

"Zhu Zi, come here quickly, carry me and go out to do something!"

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu hurriedly responded and ran over in three or two steps.

He bent down and let the deaf old lady lie on his back. Then he stood up with difficulty, carried the old lady on his back, and walked out of the yard.

.....

On the other side, it was almost noon and the sun was shining brightly.

Li Yang was sitting under the shade of a tree, breathing heavily and sweating profusely.

He had been swinging his axe and chopping down trees since early morning, and only took a short break at this moment.

Looking around, I saw broken trees and branches everywhere. Many thick nanmu trees were chopped into pieces, obviously they had been "ravaged".

In Li Yang's mind, the system prompt sound never stopped:

[Ding! Host's 'Chopping Tree' action, proficiency +50'. 】

……

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the carpentry skill has reached the 'elite' level]

In an instant, a vast amount of carpentry knowledge flooded into Li Yang's mind, which surprised him greatly.

"I never thought that in just half a day, my woodworking skills would improve by leaps and bounds, almost to the level of a master craftsman!"

He carefully savored the images that emerged in his mind, and the complex and exquisite furniture-making techniques unfolded before his eyes one by one.

A large and comfortable double bed, a chic and elegant dressing table, and a beautifully carved wardrobe...

Li Yang felt that he could do it effortlessly. He knew the production process and techniques of these furniture very well, and even the precautions for each step were clear to him.

"Hehe, when I go back, I will definitely show off my skills and build myself a set of the most luxurious furniture!" Li Yang was very proud, and he glanced at the pile of nanmu trees next to him, overjoyed.

He specially selected these high-quality nanmu trees, which are hard, with clear texture and glossy color. The furniture made from them must be of superior quality.

Just when Li Yang was feeling proud of his "achievements", his stomach suddenly growled.

"Yeah, it's almost time for lunch." Li Yang touched his empty belly and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Looking around, apart from the towering trees, where is there any food?

Just when Li Yang was at a loss, he suddenly saw traces of small animals in the distance.

"Yes, I can go hunting now, right?!" Li Yang's eyes lit up, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, "With this, I still have to worry about food and drink?"

So he picked up the wood and rattan on the ground and quickly made a simple bow and arrow.

The system prompt in my mind sounded again:

[The host has learned the 'hunting' skill, simplified to drawing the bow]

Then, Li Yang began to simulate shooting with full concentration.

He pulled the bowstring again and again, then released the arrow, which whizzed through the air and shot towards the tree trunk in the distance.

At the same time, the system prompt sounded again:

[Ding! Host's 'Bow Shooting' proficiency +10]

[Ding! Host's 'Bow Shooting' proficiency +50]

……

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the 'Hunting' skill has reached the 'Elite' level]

Following a series of clear and pleasant prompt sounds, Li Yang felt his eyes light up, and his heart surged and his blood boiled!

A large amount of hunting knowledge was constantly pouring into his mind.

How to distinguish the traces of various animals, how to determine their activity patterns and the best ambush locations...

About the common wild fruits, vegetables and grains in the forest, which ones are edible and which ones are poisonous...

Li Yang knows all of this so well that he can tell the difference without even trying it himself.

He couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

Weighing the bow and arrow in his hand, Li Yang walked towards the clearing in the woods with full confidence.

Soon, he found the trace of a pheasant, and with his keen intuition, he judged that the pheasant was foraging nearby.

Li Yang held his breath and slowly pulled the bowstring, his eyes fixed on a figure deep in the bushes.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow flew through the air and went straight to the pheasant's throat!

"Flutter..." The poor wild bird struggled for a few times and then closed its eyes forever.

Li Yang cheered, rushed forward and picked up the pheasant's body.

"Hahaha, I finally have a good meal today!"

Li Yang couldn't wait to build a fire and start gutting the pheasant.

He deftly peeled off the chicken skin, took out the internal organs, and washed it with clean water. Then he applied a layer of pepper and salt on the chicken and sprinkled a few fresh rosemary leaves picked from the side.

Soon, an enticing fragrance filled the air, making Li Yang drool.

"It smells so good!" His eyes lit up as he looked at the chicken on the fire.

The plump chicken legs and wings gradually turn an attractive brown color, the aroma is fragrant and mouth-watering.

The thin-skinned and fatty chicken breast is evenly roasted to perfection, with a slightly charred surface and tender and juicy interior.

Li Yang finally couldn't wait any longer. He took the roast chicken down and took a big bite without caring that it was still hot.

"Mmmmm..." He groaned with satisfaction and instantly fell into the paradise of gourmet food.

The crispy chicken skin makes a crunchy sound in your mouth, and the plump and tender chicken meat bursts with mellow juice on the tip of your tongue. The pepper and salt flavor is enhanced by the fresh rosemary, which is simply delicious and unforgettable!

Li Yang felt that every one of his taste buds was cheering with joy. He gobbled the food up and finished most of the chicken in just a few bites.

Only when his belly was full and he couldn't eat any more did Li Yang lie down on the grass contentedly and let out a long sigh.

"belch……"

Li Yang felt a little sleepy after a full meal. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and said to himself:

"It seems that with hunting and cooking skills, I will never have to worry about food and drink. However, now is not the time to be lazy..."

Li Yang sat up suddenly and jumped up from the ground

He patted the grass debris off his body, stretched himself, and said in high spirits:

"Okay, next, it's time to prepare a 'gift' for that little bastard! Hehehehe..."

Li Yang rubbed his hands maliciously, with a cunning light in his eyes.
