My stepmother is here, all the rebellious sons and evildoers should kneel down!

After hearing what the young lady said, Xinyi and Diejiu couldn't help but have tears in their eyes.

Wen Qiqi pointed at the rabbit meat and said, "I know you are reluctant to eat it and want to save it for me, but you don't know that pregnant women are not allowed to eat rabbit meat. It's a good thing that I eat less today."

"Ah? Why? I remember that when the young lady was at your house, she loved to eat braised rabbit meat the most."

I was confused: "Why do you say I can't eat it now that I have life?"

Die Jiu didn't believe it either: "Miss, you must be lying to us."

"certainly not."

Wen Qiqi said, "When my second sister was pregnant with Qin Yu, the maid in the mansion said that pregnant women should not eat too much rabbit meat... otherwise, the baby will be born with a cleft lip like a rabbit."

She wasn't lying, she just didn't know if what the old woman said was true.

When Die Jiu heard this, her eyes widened in fear: "Then Miss, you should eat less! Your child will definitely be good-looking. If his mouth grows like a rabbit... it will be terrible!"

"So, you two should eat quickly! I'll eat a little too, just to satisfy my craving."

The two of them finally complied with the young lady's wishes. After eating the braised rabbit meat, they were very satisfied. Die Jiu also said, "This is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in all my years of life!"

After having a full stomach, Wen Qiqi also felt more energetic.

"Diejiu, tell me the truth, where did this rabbit come from?"

Two rabbits were hit and killed at the same time. Is there such a coincidence in the world?

Die Jiu couldn't change her words, so she swore, "Miss, I'm really lucky. I went to the front mountain today, hoping to catch a tit or dig out a nest of bird eggs! I never thought... I would meet these two unlucky rabbits!"

What she said sounded like the truth, and Wen Qiqi didn't know whether it was true or not.

Xinyi kept praising Diejiu for her good luck and said that he also wanted to try his luck someday.

Die Jiu said: "You just need to take good care of the young lady at home, and leave the hunting in the mountains to me! I will go again tomorrow!"

Wen Qiqi was still a little weak and didn't bother to ask any other questions.

Just told Diejiu not to go!

"It's dangerous in the mountains. I don't feel comfortable with you going alone."

"Miss, I'm only on the cliff... where you take a bath. I won't go into the mountain."

Die Jiu said with a solemn vow.

The next evening, Die Jiu came back with two pheasants.

Wen Qiqi and Xinyi were both shocked!

Where did Diejiu learn this hunting skill?

It never fails!

Die Jiu said, "I don't know who set the trap, but it just happened to catch these two pheasants. I didn't think of secretly taking them back, but I waited for a long time and no one came to remove the trap! What do you think? If I don't take them back, and a mountain cat or something is caught, wouldn't such good game be wasted?"

She said seriously, "Maybe I'm just lucky. The mountain god helped Miss eat game. It's a token of my gratitude. What are you still standing there for? I'll make chicken soup for Miss tonight."

Xinyi went to stew a pot of chicken soup without saying a word. Old Mrs. Chen's condition improved over the past two days. Her originally dry and sallow complexion became much rosier.

Wen Qiqi was almost recovered. He had some strength left and only had a slight cough.

On the third day, Die Jiu went to the front mountain again...

The sun was about to set, so she climbed up the cliff and stood by the rock waiting.

This time, the masked man actually dragged a musk deer over...

"Your young lady eats meat every meal, isn't she afraid of getting fat?"

"Haha, it's good for the young lady to gain weight! Big brother, thank you so much! My young lady has been much better these past two days, but I didn't tell her where the game came from, I just said I was lucky!"

Die Jiu happily accepted the musk deer, thinking that this creature was so big that it would take several meals to finish it.

"I won't come tomorrow. This musk deer is enough for us to eat for several days."

"what ever!"

The masked man raised his lips and looked towards the sunset: "When will your young lady come to take a bath?"

"not coming!"

Die Jiu frowned: "Don't think about my young lady anymore. I asked you for these things, and my young lady didn't know you existed. Don't think you can please my young lady by giving her some game?"

The masked man laughed and pointed at the setting sun, saying, "Girl, look at the sun, it rises in the east and sets in the west. Everything has its reason, but sometimes we just can't figure it out. Just like me, I don't know where I came from or where I'm going. It's the same with your young lady. Now she doesn't know I exist, but it's hard to say who will be the winner in the future!"

Die Jiu sneered: "You wish! I want to go back..."

Just as Die Jiu turned around, her expression suddenly changed!

"Little...Miss..."

The next second, the cold dagger was against the masked man's back.

Die Jiu was horrified when she saw this, and hurriedly explained to Wen Qiqi in a panic: "Miss, please show mercy. This big brother is a good man. He helped me catch the rabbits, pheasants, and musk deer these days... That day, he saved me! Otherwise, I would have been bitten to death by a poisonous snake!"

Xinyi followed the young lady and rolled her eyes at Diejiu: "Who told you to lie!"

"I...I'm afraid the young lady will be angry and won't eat."

The masked man raised his lips and turned around and said, "Did you hear that? I am your girl's savior... You are a lady, shouldn't you thank me properly?"

"Don't move!"

I thought that after hearing Die Jiu's explanation, Wen Qiqi would quickly put away the dagger and thank me. Unexpectedly, she warned me coldly and suddenly used force with the dagger in her hand. The next second, the masked man felt a sharp pain on his back...

He frowned subconsciously, and Die Jiu behind him gasped!

"Miss……"

"Shut up!"

Wen Qiqi roared at Die Jiu, and Die Jiu was so scared that she didn't know what to do and stood there in a daze.

The masked man felt that the dagger only pierced his flesh, and he knew that the person behind him was just warning him, so his brows slowly relaxed...

"My lady, it seems that you are not as sensible as your girl! What's the matter? Did you recover from the cold after eating the game I gave you? Do you have the strength to hold the dagger now?"

His voice was deep and magnetic, and even though he was suddenly stabbed, he showed no sign of panic.

Wen Qiqi's alertness became stronger! Most people who were stabbed in the back would scream and shout, but this man was extremely calm!

Obviously, he was no ordinary villager, but had seen swords and guns, life and death, and blood...

"Don't be so talkative! I'm asking you, you have to answer me truthfully! Why do you know the art of taming beasts? Why did you approach us? Have you...ever been on the battlefield? Have you ever heard of the name Ye Guitu?"

Wen Qiqi held the dagger tightly and saw bright red blood seeping out of the man's black clothes.

Inexplicably, her heart tightened...
