The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Once autumn comes, it is not so obvious at the foot of the mountain, but many leaves of the trees on the mountain begin to turn red and yellow. The withered yellow leaves fall down, making a crunching sound when stepped on.

Compared with the lush greenery, it feels a bit desolate, but Chu Xiao has no time to be sad. All he has in his eyes is the food that can fill his space.

Many birds were pecking at the ripe fruits on the fruit trees. When they saw someone coming, they flew away. Chu Xiao did not look at the birds with different feathers because he discovered a large area of ​​mushrooms.

Chu Xiao felt that his luck was extremely good today. Just walking around, he could see mushrooms everywhere. He filled two large backpacks with mushrooms in just one morning.

Although the yellowish-brown mushrooms are not big, they are very plump. The most common mushrooms on the mountain are hazel mushrooms. They grow wildly in autumn every year. After being dried, they taste great when stewed with chicken in winter.

Chu Xiao felt a little greedy just thinking about it. He picked them one by one by pinching the tail and put them into the backpack. As for those whose caps had fallen off or rotted, he could not keep them.

It was still a little chilly when he went out early in the morning, but it was still very hot at noon. After Chu Xiao finished picking the fruits, he picked a fruit from the tree and ate it. The ripe fruit tasted a little strange.

Chu Xiao did not force himself to finish the meal. He took two bites and continued to move forward. He picked a lot of hazel mushrooms one after another, and also picked some other edible mushrooms.

Now it gets dark earlier than before, so he can only go back earlier. If he can't get home before dark, Brother Shen will be angry again.

Chu Xiao not only did not feel annoyed about being controlled by others, but he actually liked it. Especially when Yan Zhenshen was talking to him seriously, he felt extremely happy.

When passing by a wolfberry tree, he picked up a handful, put it in his mouth and took a bite. It was slightly sweet with a hint of bitterness.

Chu Xiao couldn't tell whether it was ripe or not, so he planned to take it back to Yan Zhenshen to see when he could get all these things back.

I thought I came back early today. Before I got close to the thatched hut, I heard a dog barking, and Taxue responded.

Chu Xiao walked forward quickly, and the two hounds were even faster. They ran to Taxue, sniffed each other, and then circled around Chu Xiao twice.

Yan Zhenshen was chopping bamboo not far ahead. Chu Xiao approached him and explained, "We caught two wild rabbits with cubs. We made a cage to keep them and then went down the mountain to give it to Wang Wu. He said he wanted to raise more rabbits to sell."

Chu Xiao knew that Wang Wu wanted to raise rabbits, and he took it very seriously. He would cut grass and dry it in the sun when he had nothing to do, and he didn't even have time to gossip.

The last time Chu Xiao went back to bring honey and wild fruits to Luo Ge, he also went to see the female rabbit that he had caught from the West Mountain. It had given birth to nine little rabbits, each as thin as a thumb and without hair. To be honest, they looked a bit ugly.

Luo Ge'er said that rabbits can give birth to one litter per month, but at most one more litter. Many baby rabbits are born in winter and freeze to death without people seeing them.

It doesn’t take much bamboo to make a rabbit cage. After Yan Zhenshen finished cutting the bamboo, Chu Xiao took it back into the space and walked back with Yan Zhenshen.

Yan Zhenshen said as they walked, "Da Huang and Da Hei found the den of the badger today. Bring Taxue with you tomorrow. He has a good nose and can help find another den."

"Should we block the hole first?"

Yan Zhenshen nodded: "Leave a hole and smoke it out."

Chu Xiao was quite curious, but he had no intention of going along. After all, the angelica he planted had begun to produce seeds, and he wanted to collect the seeds.

When they arrived at the thatched hut, Chu Xiao went to the kitchen to light a fire and cook. Yan Zhenshen started to make a rabbit cage. By the time the meal was ready, the rabbit cage was also ready.

The wolf cub was restless to begin with, and now he was arching his back and whimpering towards the female rabbit in the cage, as if he was afraid that the rabbit didn't know he was a wolf cub.

Yan Zhenshen went to the water tank to fetch water to wash his hands after he was done. Chu Xiao came out to call him to eat. Seeing the wolf cub like that, he went over and kicked it aside with his toes: "It's a pregnant rabbit. Are you responsible for it causing a difficult birth because of you scaring it?"

The wolf cub howled as he was kicked, as if he had suffered a great injustice, but Chu Xiao clearly didn't use any strength at all.

"Just pretend." Chu Xiao felt funny and helpless.

Chu Xiao didn't want to pay attention to him, so he took the cloth and handed it to Yan Zhenshen to wipe his hands, and said, "Bring up some of the Platycodon grandiflorum we dug last time. I also learned how to make it. If you see it on the mountain, note the location and I'll go over and dig some more."

"Yeah." Yan Zhenshen had a smile in his eyes. Most of the time when he was hunting, he would only pay attention to whether there were prey nearby, and rarely observed the plants.

But even if he really observed carefully, it was useless. His luck was not as good as his husband's. The more he wanted to find something, the less he could find it.

Both of them came back early today. It was still light after dinner. Yan Zhenshen washed the dishes, and Chu Xiao had already gone to the river with some clothes to change into.

When Yan Zhenshen went over, Chu Xiao had already finished taking a shower and was washing clothes. Yan Zhenshen squatted and helped wash the foam off the clothes.

"I'll bring a bathtub with me this time. The water in the river is too cold. It's not good for your health to take cold showers all the time."

Yan Zhenshen naturally did not say that it would be difficult for a younger brother to get pregnant if he caught a cold. Although he really wanted a child of his and Chu Xiao, Chu Xiao often said that he was not a younger brother, and he didn't know whether he was willing to have a child.

If she is willing, then let it be. If she is not willing, then she should not mention it, as that would only make things more frustrating for her husband.

Chu Xiao nodded. The river water was indeed a little cold at this moment. It was okay before dark, but once it got dark, it was so cold that people would get goose bumps when they first entered the water.

"How long does it take to take a bath?"

"We have some ready-made ones for sale." Yan Zhenshen said, "A large bathtub from Carpenter Tan costs about 700 to 800 coins. If it's made of better wood, it will be more expensive."

"After the autumn harvest, the mountains will be very cold, and we need to prepare the coal stove and hot water bottle."

There is no winter in the apocalypse, and Chu Xiao can only know from Chu Xiaoxiao’s memory that winter is very cold, but he has no idea what the biting cold feels like.

But no matter what you do, you must be prepared in advance. It is always right to prepare early.

"Okay." Chu Xiao nodded: "Then buy some more coal and more firewood."

It was only when it got dark that Chu Xiao remembered to hand the wolfberries to Yan Zhenshen and asked him if they were ripe.

"Yeah." Yan Zhenshen often encountered wolfberry trees on the way back and forth, so he naturally knew that they were ripe: "I'll go pick them with you the day after tomorrow."

I think Yan Zhenshen will take Taxue away tomorrow, and he will definitely not agree to let him run around alone.

I can free up a day to take care of the medicinal fields, so I don't interfere with either task.

Once this batch of medicine is dug out and sold to Doctor Hu, it should be another large profit, and it will bring him one step closer to his big house.

I couldn't help but smile when I thought of my future home, and gradually fell asleep.
