Scientific Travel

Without Li Pingle waking them up for breakfast, Deng Yin and Wang Xi had both overslept, and when they woke up, the sun had already been up for who knows how many hours.

Deng Yin guessed that the two had just reconciled and should still have a lot to talk about, so he finished breakfast with Wang Xi before going downstairs.

Li Pingle clearly cried a lot that night; her eyes were swollen like peach pits, which startled Deng Yin, who thought that the two of them had broken up.

Wang Xi was overjoyed to see the two of them had made up. She threw herself into Wang Moyu's arms and complained, "Father didn't wake me up this morning, that's why I got up so late."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Li Pingle.

Although Li Pingle's eyes were swollen, he was in a good mood. He could tell that the little girl was still angry that he hadn't helped her eat the carrots.

This kid has been holding grudges since he was little...

Just like her mother!

"Daddy overslept today. You two haven't eaten yet, have you? Daddy will go and make you something now."

"No need, Uncle Li." Deng Yin brought over a basket of chilled watermelons, which she had stored in the storeroom last night. "We've already eaten before we came. Here are a few chilled watermelons. Have you two had breakfast? If you have, you can have some more watermelon."

Wang Moyu glanced at Li Pingle before answering, "I've already eaten."

"Then I'll go cut it for you." Li Pingle snatched the basket from Deng Yin's hand and ran out as if fleeing.

Looking in the direction Li Pingle had left, Wang Xi said, "Did Father eat rabbit this morning? How come he ran so fast?"

Wang Moyu was in a good mood, and although it was a child's question, she answered seriously: "No, Mother ate rabbit this morning."

"I want to eat rabbit too!" Wang Xi counted on her fingers, listing all the different ways to cook rabbit: "Spicy rabbit head, rabbit with green and red peppers, rabbit with fish, and stir-fried rabbit with three kinds of shredded vegetables, I want to eat them all!"

"Okay." Wang Moyu affectionately patted her head, his face beaming with a smile. "Then you can go and tell him yourself."

Deng Yin had a lot of meat, including pork, duck, chicken, mutton, and goose, but no rabbit meat.

These little creatures may not look big, but they run incredibly fast and are very difficult to catch. They sell for very low prices, so few people are willing to specifically catch rabbits to sell.

But Deng Yin didn't ask any further questions. There were plenty of wild rabbits in this kind of place, so it was very likely that the two of them went out to catch them.

They probably didn't catch many, maybe just one or two, otherwise, given how much Wang Xi loves to eat, Li Pingle would definitely have woken her up.

It must be a little rabbit. Li Pingle has just made up with Wang Moyu and is trying to please her, which is why he's eating alone behind their backs!

It was all for nothing that she took Wang Xi upstairs to give them space to talk, and even waited until after breakfast to come back.

The world is deteriorating, and people’s hearts are not as old as they used to be!

This time, Deng Yin didn't even think about eating watermelon. He put on some hand warmers and ran out to catch rabbits.

This time, she's going to eat alone with Wang Xi and not let them eat either!

It's so hot that there isn't even a rabbit, let alone an ant, on the ground.

Deng Yin rode his electric bike for dozens of kilometers before finally finding a rabbit.

After storing them in his spatial storage, Deng Yin also made a place for the rabbits to live. These things are so hard to catch, so it's better to let them breed to speed things up.

Four whole hours passed, and the sun had already set before Deng Yincai caught eight.

It sounds like a lot, but these eight were all she had seen within a hundred miles.

Uncle Li is really lucky; he managed to catch something with such a low probability.

When Deng Yin arrived home, Li Pingle had already prepared a table full of food, just waiting for her to come back.

Deng Yin was a little embarrassed, but seeing that none of the dishes on the table were made with rabbit, he proudly raised the rabbit in his hand.

One in each hand. These two rabbits are the fattest of the eight, but they are not considered big either, averaging only one or two pounds each.

Li Pingle quickly took the rabbit from her hand and exclaimed in surprise, "Xiao Yin is so amazing, she actually managed to catch two rabbits!"

Deng Yin was a little shy, but she didn't reveal that she had actually caught eight.

She wanted to save some for herself and Wang Xi to eat alone!

"Uncle Li, you're not being fair! I even ate breakfast before coming down this morning so you two could chat a little longer, and you're eating alone behind our backs!"

"Huh? What do you mean by eating alone?" Li Pingyue didn't know that Wang Moyu had told them about eating rabbit that morning, and Wang Xi hadn't mentioned it when she asked him to cook rabbit.

"Aunt Wang told us that she ate rabbit this morning."

Wang Xi chimed in, "That's right, that's right, Father is being unfair."

three seconds.

It only takes three seconds.

That would make Li Pingle's face turn as red as an apple.

Wang Moyu laughed so hard she almost fell over, and chimed in, "That's right, that's right, Li Pingle, you're not being fair!"

"Shut up." Li Pingle put the rabbit on the ground and reached out to cover her mouth.

Wang Moyu sat there watching him, motionless, and asked, "You dare?"

Li Pingle quickly pulled his hand back and muttered, "I dare not."

Both rabbits were alive and, having finally gained their freedom, began running around the house.

Li Pingle released the rabbit, so naturally he was also responsible for catching it.

The three of them sat in chairs eating while giving orders: "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up! Are you even capable? You're so slow, you can't even catch a rabbit!"

"There's another one behind you! Hurry, it's about to run away!"

"Left, left, the rabbit on your left is slower, catch that one first."

Li Pingle's physical strength was average; he was exhausted and still hadn't caught a single one.

"I'm not going to arrest him anymore." Li Pingyue sat down next to Wang Moyu, looking upset and resentful.

A few seconds later, he pointed at the two rabbits and pleaded with Wang Moyu, "Please catch them for me, okay? Please."

As he spoke, he grabbed Wang Moyu's sleeve and shook it.

"I can't bear to look, I can't bear to look." Wang Xi shook her head and covered her eyes.

Deng Yin also imitated Wang Xi, saying, "I can't bear to look, I can't bear to look." She also covered her eyes, but the two gaps between her fingers revealed her eyes.

This time, Wang Moyu didn't laugh at him along with them. Instead, he got up and went to catch a rabbit.

In terms of both speed and agility, Wang Moyu far surpasses Li Pingle.

Li Pingle was exhausted and couldn't catch any rabbits, but she caught them all in less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.

Wang Moyu grabbed one of the four rabbit ears with one hand and looked at Li Pingle.

Li Pingle immediately understood, clapping and praising, "My wife is amazing!"

Deng Yin suddenly felt that the chicken soup in her mouth didn't taste good anymore; she was already full from eating just dog food.

Wang Xi was very supportive. She put down her chopsticks and clapped, praising, "Mom is amazing!"

After the two finished praising Deng Yin, they both turned to look at him, and Wang Moyu also looked at Deng Yin.

Deng Yin froze, her hand holding the bowl still. Noticing that everyone's eyes were on her, she quickly put the bowl down.

Deng Yin clapped and praised, repeating the same lines as the other two. "Aunt Wang is really amazing!"

Wang Moyu, who received unanimous praise, waved her hand and said indifferently, "No need to praise me, I just did what anyone could do."

Wang Xi quickly stepped forward to deny it: "No, Mother, Father can't do it, Mother is the best!"

Despite being belittled, Li Pingyue showed no displeasure and praised her in return. "My wife is too modest. Most people can't do it; only my wife can!"

After praising him, the two men both turned their gazes to Deng Yin at the same time.

Deng Yin felt that she was part of their three-person play, but still praised her, "Aunt Wang, you're too modest. Uncle Li was almost exhausted just now and still couldn't catch her, but you caught her right away. Aunt Wang is really amazing!"

After being praised twice, Wang Moyu tied up the rabbit with satisfaction and then drank the chicken soup.

Deng Yin had never experienced this feeling before. Her parents died early, and she had lived alone since she was a child.

Eating is merely a means to maintain vital signs; the dining table is always quiet, with only the sound of spoons clattering against metal.

Although I've never experienced this feeling before, it seems... not bad...

The outside was quiet and peaceful; there wasn't even the sound of crickets.

The house was filled with laughter and noise; there were many rooms, yet it didn't feel spacious at all.

Because in every room, there is the sound of happiness.
