The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Chu Xiao did not really challenge the wolf. He ate something casually at noon and started walking back. On the way, he picked some fresh grass to feed the two roe deer. He couldn't let them starve to death, as it cost money.

It was still early when he returned to the thatched hut. Seeing that the small animals in the woodshed were still fine, he threw the grass he had cut on the road to the roe deer. Seeing the pheasants pecking at the grass, he didn't care anymore.

When he walked out of the woodshed, he saw a sealed barrel that looked out of place with the thatched hut right next to the yard. He leaned over the gap and took a look. The snake inside was curled up in a ball and not moving.

"It won't be dead." Chu Xiao muttered, and found a thin stick to poke it in. The snake's tail moved, proving that it was still alive. Maybe the temperature in the sealed barrel was too low, and the snake went into hibernation.

After feeding these small animals, Chu Xiao began to sort out the things he had picked. He picked several kinds of wild fruits, and put them in a large pile in the space, but none of them was as delicious as the ones Brother Shen brought back yesterday.

I don’t know if anyone will buy these. If I can’t sell them, I’ll just keep them and eat them slowly.

He first put the collected wood ears on a winnowing basket to dry, and spread it out flatly until all three winnowing baskets in his house were filled up, with half left.

This is a bit of a dilemma. There are many other things that need to be dried, but there are only these three that can be used here. If they are spread directly on the ground, they will definitely get covered with dust.

It seems that I need to ask my dad to weave more and bring them back when I go down the mountain this time.

The sun is strong today, and it is much hotter sitting in the yard than in the woods. Chu Xiao took the clothes he took off yesterday to the river to wash, and cleaned the mushrooms by the way. He can dry the mushrooms after the wood ears are dried.

Since we are going to the river with the bucket, we don’t have to run back and forth several times to fetch two buckets of water.

It was almost evening when everything was done. Chu Xiao had just started cooking when Yan Zhenshen came back.

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw three baskets of fungus and asked Chu Xiao with a smile: "You picked so many, where did you go today?"

"Ah." Chu Xiao didn't know how to answer. He was not good at lying. Even if he talked nonsense sometimes, he still felt that he was right. As for doing something that he knew was wrong, he felt a little guilty.

"I was just walking around, and when I saw it, I just picked it. I didn't know where it was. You know my sense of direction is not very good." Chu Xiao answered in a low voice, and his eyes kept wandering around.

As soon as Yan Zhenshen saw him like this, he knew that he was lying. He had previously told him not to go west or north, and it seemed that his husband did not listen.

"Did he go west or north? I came back from the north and didn't see any signs of other people. Did he go west?"

Chu Xiao felt a little embarrassed after being stripped. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "I didn't walk far. I only walked five or six miles before turning back. I didn't walk along the river, and I didn't see a wolf."

"Once I meet you, I can't come back." Yan Zhenshen had an expressionless face and looked very serious.

For some reason, Chu Xiao still felt a little uneasy when he saw Yan Zhenshen like this, just like a child who did something wrong and was scolded by an adult. He felt that he was not wrong but had to bow his head.

Yan Zhenshen saw him standing there with his head down, not saying anything, and even pouting his lips with a look of grievance. He couldn't get angry at all.

She took two steps forward, hugged her husband into her arms, and patted his back soothingly: "Xiao brother, there are many dangers in this deep mountain. I know you have the ability to protect yourself, but I am still afraid. What should I do if I really encounter a pack of wolves?"

"I can climb trees." Chu Xiao lay on Yan Zhenshen's chest. He felt more confident after being coaxed. "I can climb trees now. I picked those fungus on the trees."

Yan Zhenshen didn't expect his husband to be so stubborn, "What about stepping on the snow?"

Chu Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I'll use the vines to pull Taxue up."

"Can you pull it?" Yan Zhenshen asked again.

With his current physical strength, it was difficult for him to pick up Taxue, let alone pull him up the tree.

Chu Xiao did not refute, but was still a little unconvinced. He did not care whether Yan Zhenshen's clothes were dirty or not, and just bit him directly. He did not bite the flesh, but got dust in his mouth.

He spat a few times and pushed the person away. Then he looked at the man carefully. Not only was his body covered in dust, but even his face and hair were dirty.

"It's so dirty." Chu Xiao pretended to be disgusted and changed the subject: "Did you go to the rabbit hole?"

Yan Zhenshen knew he was trying to change the subject, but he was afraid his husband would get angry if he continued, so he could only follow his words and answer, "A doe fell into a trap in the mountains. The trap couldn't get any sun, and it was full of mud and water, so it got a little dirty."

"Where's the deer?" Chu Xiao lay at the kitchen door and looked out. A female deer was not even tied up. It was just lying on the ground with its hind legs tilted at an abnormal angle. Although it was still breathing, it seemed as if it would not live much longer.

"Did you carry it back?" Chu Xiao asked.

"Yes." Yan Zhenshen responded: "If the doe dies, it won't be worth the money. Let's go down the mountain tomorrow."

If it weren't for bringing his husband with him, Yan Zhenshen would have wanted to go down the mountain tonight. The doe was seriously injured and he didn't know if she could hold on until tomorrow.

"Okay." Chu Xiao didn't object. It seemed that everything was in short supply on the mountain except for food. He wanted to stock up well this time.

After carrying the doe into the woodshed, Yan Zhenshen went to the river to take a bath, and Chu Xiao went to the kitchen to cook.

After dinner, Chu Xiao took out some of each wild fruit from the space and placed them in front of Yan Zhenshen: "Can these be sold for money?"

Yan Zhenshen nodded: "This is a wild grape. If it is slightly bumped, it will look ugly. But some people grow it themselves, but there are still very few sold in the county."

"This is a red fruit. If you bump it, it will have an unpleasant smell the next day, but there are still people selling it. It costs about seven or eight cents per pound."

"This is green fruit, it's everywhere in the mountains, some people buy it but they can't sell it at a good price."

"As for this, it's the snake venom fruit, and it's said to be poisonous." Yan Zhenshen looked up at Chu Xiao: "You didn't eat it, did you?"

Chu Xiao never thought that the fruits in the mountains could be poisonous. He didn't even use his supernatural powers to check, and he seemed to have eaten one and didn't notice anything wrong.

Yan Zhenshen secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chu Xiao was indeed fine. He was really afraid that his greedy and daring husband would eat the fruit.

After Yan Zhenshen explained everything to him, he secretly took a snake venom fruit and checked it with his supernatural power. It didn't show any poisonous properties, and it was actually quite delicious.

Thinking it was delicious, he took a bite. It was sour, sweet and soft. How could anyone say it was poisonous if it was so delicious?

Chu Xiao ate happily, his eyes narrowed with happiness. Yan Zhenshen turned around and saw this scene and was scared to death.

He knocked the fruit out of Chu Xiao's hand and was about to take the fruit out of his mouth. Chu Xiao quickly tilted his head back to stop the man's action: "It's not poisonous, Brother Shen, this fruit is not poisonous."

Yan Zhenshen's eyes were red and his breathing was a little heavy. "What did you say?"

"I said this fruit is not poisonous." Chu Xiao knew that he had scared the man, and quickly explained: "My ability can check the properties of plants. This fruit is not only non-toxic, but also contains vitamins."

Yan Zhenshen didn't understand what he said, and said in confusion: "But the old people in the village said it is poisonous. Some people ate it before and got rashes all over their bodies and vomited and had diarrhea."

Chu Xiao thought for a moment and asked, "Have you seen a doctor?"

"I am not sure."

“It must be an allergy.”

"Allergy?" Yan Zhenshen was even more confused.

"Yes, eating certain foods will cause some symptoms, but I am not allergic, so I can eat it."

After explaining, Chu Xiao looked at the snake venom fruit that had fallen to the ground and had its juice splattered everywhere and felt a little sorry.

He bent down to pick it up and pulled Yan Zhenshen to the woodshed, and fed the fruit to the silly roe deer. One of them nudged it and ate it directly, and spat out the core after a while.

Chu Xiao said: "Look, it's really not poisonous."

There was still a hint of uncertainty in Yan Zhenshen's eyes, but he said nothing. He just hugged his husband tightly and sighed helplessly. His husband was really a worry.
