The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

The news of the Chu family being struck by lightning was already a hot topic in the village, and now there was also the breaking of an engagement and forced marriage. Although the village chief did not allow the villagers to tell anyone, he could not stop others from asking about it.

Naturally, no one would be so tactless as to ask the real owner, but there were also many people who watched the whole thing, especially Aunt Wu who helped Chu Xiaoxiao change her clothes that day. She was always asked to chat about family matters, and the conversation would always bring up the Chu family.

Aunt Wu has never been a talkative person. When Chu Wanwan asked her to testify that day, she had to tell the truth. However, she was unwilling to gossip behind people's back, so she just said that the clothes must have been damaged by lightning, which left room for maneuver in the forced marriage.

But the women in the village didn't believe what Aunt Wu said. They started talking about it while washing clothes by the river.

"If you ask me, there's nothing wrong with this hunter Yan marrying Chu Xiaoxiao. He looks fierce, his family is poor, and he's old. If he doesn't marry Chu Xiaoxiao, he'll probably be a bachelor like Li Guaizi." A young wife said while washing her husband's coat.

The older aunt retorted, "How can they be the same? Yan the Hunter is healthy and capable, but Li Guaizi is just a drunkard. Besides, didn't Li Guaizi marry a boy before, but he got drunk and went crazy and beat people up, and his husband chased him away. That's why no one wants to marry their daughters or boys to him."

The young wife had been married for only a few years and was not very clear about the past events in the village. She was a little curious about the fact that Li Guaizi had married a husband, but now she was more interested in the affairs of the Chu family.

"Then you said that the Chu family insisted on marrying the little brother to Hunter Yan, are they just trying to make Chu Xiaoxiao continue to be tortured? Anyway, I think that hunter is not an easy person to get along with, and he might even beat people?"

"Don't talk nonsense. You know that hunters are difficult to get along with. Hunter Yan has been sensible since he was a child. If he hadn't been dragged down by his father, he wouldn't have ended up like this... It's all fate."

This is true. Before Yan Zhengdao got into trouble, his life in Anning Village was not very good, but not bad either. However, he is really poor now. He has a disabled father and several brothers and sisters who can't do much work. The burden of the family falls on Yan the hunter alone, so it is normal for him to have a strange personality.

A group of women were talking at once, and in the end they all felt sorry for Chu Xiaoxiao, fearing that she would jump from one fire pit into another.

Poor Chu Xiao had no idea about the consequences of being forced into marriage. After a night of meditation, his mental strength recovered well. He walked out of the woodshed refreshed, humming an unknown tune.

He has been in the Chu family since he came here and has never left. In order to have a good body, he has to go out and find some good things to supplement. He doesn't know if there will be ginseng and angelica in this mountain. Even if there is none, it would be nice to get a pheasant or rabbit.

This body is obviously lacking in oil and water. He can't help drooling when he thinks of the chicken soup he ate two days ago. Although there are several chickens in the Chu family's backyard, if he dares to kill and eat them, Li Xiulan will definitely throw a tantrum again.

The throwing tantrum had no effect on him, but it was annoying to listen to. Anyway, he wanted to go up the mountain to find some medicinal herbs and catch some stray prey.

So Chu Xiao found a backpack in the kitchen, went to the chicken coop to get a few eggs, put a small hoe in it, and went out amid the Chu family's surprised gazes.

It is midsummer now. People who work usually go to the fields at dawn and go home to eat when the sun gets high, so there are not many people on the road at this time.

Anning Village is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and one has to take the mountain road once leaving the village. Chu Xiao searched his memory. This Chu Xiaoxiao would usually come to the mountain to pick up some dead branches and broken wood, so he still had some impression of the nearby hills.

However, he wanted to find medicinal herbs, but there were none near the village, so he had to go deep into the mountains.

Due to the heavy rain in the past few days, many trees were struck by lightning, and the deeper we went into the mountains, the harder it was to walk.

If Chu Xiao in his previous life was able to use his supernatural powers, wherever there were plants, that would be his world, but now... don't think too much, just climb the mountain carefully.

Chu Xiaoxiao was too weak. She walked for an hour with great difficulty but didn't get very far.

However, the journey was not completely fruitless. He still found several plants of Astragalus, a herb that can replenish qi and blood. The rhizomes of Astragalus can be used to stew chicken, which is good for the body.

Chu Xiao's desire to eat chicken became stronger and stronger, so he cheered himself up and continued to walk inside.

After noon, he was very hungry, but where was the pheasant? Not even a shadow of it was seen.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in my ears, as if something was moving through the grass.

Chu Xiao was happy, there were living creatures, haha, pheasants, wild rabbits, wild ducks, no matter what kind of wild they were, they were coming, his delicious food was coming, and at the call of the food, he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

But it was not a pheasant, wild duck or wild rabbit, but a small snake. Chu Xiao was not afraid of it, but it was not as thick as his fingers, so he was too lazy to catch it and watched the small snake crawl away.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he sensed a hint of danger. Was there some large wild animal? He would go and take a look first. If there was any danger, he would run away quickly.

Chu Xiao walked up the hillside with light steps, making almost no sound. He gently parted the grass and saw more than just wild animals.

I saw a tall man with a machete in his hand, confronting a silver-white lone wolf, and the two hounds beside him were also bent over, ready to pounce and bite each other at any time.

The man was half-naked with an obvious scratch on his back, obviously injured. The veins on his arms and back were bulging, and he was in a state of readiness for battle.

He didn't know how long the two sides had been confronting each other, but he only heard the sound now.

The lone wolf seemed to have discovered him, the uninvited guest, and its cold eyes moved towards him.

Yan Zhenshen also noticed it, and turned his head to look at him. The fierceness in his eyes reminded Chu Xiao of those strong men who killed people like crazy in the base. He was so scared that he took a breath and avoided his gaze in panic, and couldn't help but take two steps back.

Yan Zhenshen was a little puzzled. Why would Chu Xiaoxiao come into the mountains? Was she trying to kill herself?

But looking at his panicked expression at this moment, he was so thin and frail, a bit like a little white rabbit that had strayed into the mountains.

Yan Zhenshen was not a very kind person, but he was definitely not the kind of person who would watch someone in danger and would not help. He said in a cold voice, "Climb up the tree."

Upon hearing this, the little white rabbit Chu Xiao looked at the big trees on both sides. They were so high, how could he climb them? He didn't have the skill points to do so.

But he was still obedient. He found a tree and started using his hands and feet. However, after climbing one meter, he returned to zero. Then he climbed another meter and returned to zero again. He was so angry that he wanted to use his supernatural powers.

Yan Zhenshen was speechless for a while, but the ferocious lone wolf opposite him was watching with great interest, tilting his head to watch Chu Xiao's performance with his mouth slightly grinning, as if he was mocking this weak human.

After trying several times without success, Chu Xiao looked at Yan Zhenshen helplessly: "Or, I'd better not hide. In fact, I'm not really afraid of that thing. It's no different from a dog."

Yan Zhenshen didn't say anything, just raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

However, the lone wolf seemed to feel insulted and growled at Chu Xiao with bared teeth.

After this sudden change, Hunter Yan no longer wanted to pay any attention to this desperate man. He stared at the lone wolf with full readiness. As long as it showed the intention to attack, he would have to fight it with all his might.

It was not uncommon for him to encounter wild beasts in the mountains. The only thing he could say was that he was unlucky. He and the lone wolf had set their eyes on the same prey and had just fought against it.

If Chu Xiaoxiao hadn't suddenly barged in, the lone wolf would have left after a standoff when the prey had run away. However, the unexpected event could not be changed.
