I survived as a female assassin

Xin Youran just kept running forward, not daring to look back. She didn't know how long she had been running until she saw Liu Erniu, and then she felt relieved.

"Miss Youran, what's wrong with you? Is there a stray dog ​​behind you? You're running so fast."

Xin Youran: ...

"No, no, I'm just a little scared walking through those woods alone, hehe."

"I see. Don't be afraid. My eldest brother asked me to pick you up in advance, and you've already come back."

She felt much more at ease the moment she saw Li Erniu. No matter who the expert was who was talking in the woods, they were out of number and would not attack her.

Xin Youran quickly changed the subject, "Brother Erniu, how did you guys harvest today?"

"It's been good today. I caught two roe deer, four pheasants, and six hares. I even shot one of the roe deer!"

Speaking of this, Li Erniu began to feel proud.

At this time, Li Daniu and other hunters came over with today's harvest. He patted Li Erniu on the shoulder and said, "What are you bragging about, kid?"

"Go help the big brothers carry some things, you are always lazy!"

Li Daniu's hand must have been really strong. Liu Erniu jumped up instantly, screaming and rubbing the place where he was hit.

"I know, I know!"

"How can I be lazy..."

He muttered to himself as he took the rabbits and pheasants from other hunters.

Only then did Xin Youran check her backpack to see if she had dropped anything while running away.

Fortunately, the two morels wrapped in large tree leaves were still intact.

Liu Erniu took a closer look and couldn't help but jokingly said, "What kind of treasure did you find, Miss Youran? You're so nervous. Is there really a wild dog chasing you?"

This guy really had a fight with a wild dog, but it wasn't a wild dog. She said it was more like a female ghost. The creepy laughter still lingers in her ears.

"Of course I will. I'm going to exchange this for money. When I make a lot of money, I'll definitely treat you guys to a big meal!"

"Miss Youran is quite good at making big promises..."

The group walked down the mountain talking and laughing.

They separated at the village entrance, each returning home to look for their own mother.

Xin Youran was carrying a backpack and walking towards her master's house. As soon as she turned into the alley, she saw a carriage parked in front of Tong Wan's house?

At this time, an elegant man walked down from the high-end carriage. From this angle, she could only see his side profile, but she could tell that the man looked very young. After getting off the carriage, he walked straight to Tong Wan's yard with a box of snacks in his hand.

The old woman in their family actually invited the man in respectfully.

Could it be that this man is the legendary nobleman in the capital who keeps a mistress?

It seems there really is no smoke without fire. Tong Wan is really someone else's concubine...

She must have had a hard time these past few years...

Xin Youran tightened the backpack on her shoulders and waited until the carriage left before slowly walking towards her master's house.

At this time, the sun is setting, and the sunset is shining with the rosy clouds, which looks spectacular!

Just as I was staring in a daze, Mu Yuan walked towards me towards the sunset.

"What are you looking at? You look so engrossed."

Mu Yuan was still wearing the green cloth robe that she had asked her master's wife to make for her. Even in the cloth, his noble aura could not be concealed, and it looked even more beautiful in the sunset glow.

Her gaze unconsciously shifted from the scenery to the people.

She definitely couldn't let him know that she was looking at him, that would be so embarrassing.

So he cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, the sunset is beautiful, but it's almost dusk..."

She actually installed it.

"My lady is very talented."

"Hehe, I'm not talented, not talented."

The two of them walked towards the courtyard together, and only then did she realize that her master and his wife had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time.

This guy is quite pretentious. Did he call "wife" only when he saw his master and mistress?

Then they had to do the whole act, so Xin Youran held one of Mu Yuan's arms with both hands, so that it looked more like a loving couple walking in together!

"What delicious food did Master's wife make? I can smell the fragrance even at the door."

"This is a big carp sent by my neighbor next door. I braised it. Come and try it and see how it tastes."

Xin Youran put the backpack aside and couldn't wait to taste the big carp. She hadn't eaten fish for a long time.

"Clean your hands."

Mu Yuan's two light words made her just stretch out her little hand and stop in mid-air. The prince was very particular. She remembered that when she went to his plantation with her grandfather to help, she didn't care about these little things. At that time, her grandfather didn't say anything to her, but just smiled and excused her, saying that eating dirty food wouldn't make her sick...

She quickly followed him to wash her hands dejectedly. When she ate the fish she had been dreaming of, it looked very tasty after being braised. The fish looked quite big, at least four or five kilograms!

"Is this from Tong Wan?"

Mrs. Liu poured a bowl of rice for Xin Youran and placed it in front of her. Then she replied, "Who is Tong Wan? Aunt Li sent her here. She has been working in the courtyard next door."

"But I've never seen her speak. She always just delivers the things and leaves."

Xin Youran also felt strange when she thought about meeting the woman in Tong Wan's courtyard, but she was sure that she was not mute.

"Does she often send things over?"

Mrs. Liu nodded and said, "Yes, if there is any fresh food, we will send some over every now and then."

"I also occasionally send some homemade medicine sachets or pillows to their homes."

It seemed like their neighbors got along quite well. "By the way, Master's Wife, do you think the rumor out there is true?"

Xin Youran even winked at Liu, "That concubine..."

Liu actually laughed. "What's the big deal? It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Your master is just too poor. If he were rich, he'd probably have several concubines!"

Doctor Liu, who was concentrating on eating, suddenly got a fish bone stuck in his throat...

Then he started coughing violently, "Don't talk nonsense in front of the younger generation!"

Mrs. Liu laughed even louder and stood up to go to the kitchen to get some vinegar. "Tsk, you're still talking nonsense."

Seeing her master about to drink vinegar, Xin Youran quickly stopped him, "That's useless, Master. Try coughing a few times to see if you can cough out the fishbone."

Doctor Liu started coughing half-believingly as Xin Youran said. There was no response in the first two coughs, but with the last two coughs he actually coughed out a very small fish bone.

"How about it? Don't drink vinegar anymore. It doesn't really have any effect. If it gets stuck and you can't cough it out, just use chopsticks to pick it out for her."

This really refreshed their understanding. Liu was puzzled and said, "We used to drink vinegar to get rid of it."

"I never thought I could cough it out. This saves me money. The price of vinegar has gone up!"

Doctor Liu: ...
