Three Kingdoms: Ten Times Speed, Diao Chan Says I'm Too Fast

In the courtyard.

Duan Yu, holding a dagger, skinned and plucked the fur from the rabbit, pheasant, and leopard.

Duan Yu is a novice archer.

But when it comes to wielding daggers, Duan Yu is definitely an expert.

Modern warfare involves guns.

But the dagger is also a required course.

For close-quarters combat indoors, a dagger is definitely the best choice.

Therefore, Duan Yu was very skilled with daggers.

The peeling process was also very professional.

From the moment she met Duan Yu, Diao Chan's pretty face never lost its smile.

While adding firewood and boiling water, he watched Duan Yu carefully peeling the skin.

His eyes were filled with adoration.

Outside the fenced yard, many children and villagers were watching.

Duan Yu's physique was already outstanding.

In addition, the fact that they brought back so many prey at once immediately attracted the attention of the entire village.

Even the three elders from the village and the village headman came.

This was the first time in Diao Chan's life that she had been surrounded by so many people.

Some people praised Duan Yu for his prowess.

Some say that Diao Chan found a good man.

Some of the young people in the village even said they wanted to learn hunting from Duan Yu.

The three elders and the village official even intended to appoint Duan Yu as the village's patrol officer.

Everything seemed to have come too suddenly, too happily.

"Chan'er, distribute all this cut meat to the neighbors."

"Didn't you say last night that the neighbors have taken good care of you over the years?"

"We can't store this meat; if we can't finish it, it will all spoil in no time."

"Why not share it with everyone?"

"First, I want to thank everyone for taking care of you over the years."

"Secondly, it can also help maintain good neighborly relations."

Duan Yu cut up the leopard's meat.

The leopard wasn't large; after removing the skin and internal organs, it weighed only about 40 to 50 pounds.

It was divided into more than twenty portions by Duan Hu.

It weighs about two pounds, including the bones and meat.

Diao Chan nodded gently and said, "I will listen to Brother Duan."

Duan Yu smiled, then turned around and waved to the neighbors outside the fenced garden.

"Everyone, please come in."

"I've already cut all the meat into pieces, everyone come in and take some."

"Thank you all for taking care of my daughter Chan'er over the years. I have no way to repay you."

"Everyone take this meat and divide it up."

Duan Yu said loudly.

Nearby, when Diao Chan heard Duan Yu say "my Chan'er," her pretty face turned as red as a ripe apple.

She pursed her red lips and lowered her head shyly.

But the smile on her lips was very sweet.

The villagers outside the courtyard were initially a little embarrassed and ashamed upon hearing this.

Duan Yu was holding a plate of meat in his hands.

After opening the courtyard gate, he placed it in the hands of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old youth.

The young man's name was Stone.

He has a chubby, tiger-like face.

Duan Yu remembered that Diao Chan had mentioned that this young man named Shi Tou often helped her fetch water.

"Brother Duan... Brother Duan, can I learn hunting from you?"

Stone, holding the leopard meat in his hands, looked at Duan Yu somewhat timidly.

Standing at over 1.8 meters tall, nearly 1.9 meters, Duan Yu exudes a sense of oppression whenever he stands in front of any villager.

In addition, Duan Yu was able to hunt leopards on his own, so the villagers looked at him with some fear.

"Sure, I'll teach you sometime."

Duan Yu reached out and rubbed the stone's head.

Stone sniffed with gratitude and nodded vigorously.

Several boys around the same size as the stone, seeing that the stone had actually responded to his words, also mustered up their courage and said they wanted to learn hunting from Duan Yu.

In this day and age, boys who are fourteen or fifteen are no longer children.

They're even about to start performing corvée labor.

She has taken on the burden of the family.

Compared to boys in later generations who are still in junior high school, boys in this era are already adults at fourteen or fifteen.

Once a few young men in the village struck up a conversation with Duan Yu, the rest of the villagers, watching Duan Yu talk and laugh, were no longer as afraid as before.

So they all stepped forward.

Duan Yu took the meat that Diao Chan handed over and handed it to the villagers one portion at a time.

By the time the last portion was distributed, most of the villagers had already left.

The leopard meat was all gone.

However, there are still two rabbits and two pheasants.

Duan Yu cleaned one of them and had Diao Chan stew it into soup to nourish his aunt.

Then I roasted a rabbit for dinner.

Instead of cooking porridge for dinner, I cooked a meal of wheat rice.

Diao Chan's uncle, Li Gou'er, had not returned by dinner time.

Duan Yu did not wait.

Inside the small hut in the middle.

Diao Chan sat next to her aunt, Ren Shi, and fed her chicken soup spoonful by spoonful with a wooden spoon.

"Auntie, is the chicken soup delicious?"

Mrs. Ren nodded with a smile: "Delicious, delicious."

"Of course, the chicken soup that Chan'er makes is delicious."

"But I still want to thank Ayu."

"Chan'er, you've found a good man."

"Your aunt can rest assured now that Ayu will take care of you."

"Auntie~" Diao Chan lowered her head shyly and said coquettishly, "Brother Duan... Brother Duan hasn't said anything yet..."

Madam Ren smiled and said, "My Chan'er is so beautiful, A-Yu..."

"Huh?" Duan Yu, who was eating in silence, looked up, feeling a little embarrassed.

The main reason is that the progress is a bit faster.

He wanted to marry Diao Chan.

But we should cultivate some feelings for each other.

This is so sudden!

"Ah Yu."

Madam Ren called out, "Come here."

Duan Yu immediately put down his rice bowl and went to Ren's bedside.

Ren fumbled for his hand, and Duan Yu offered his own.

Ren held Duan Yu's hand in one hand and Diao Chan's hand in the other.

Then they put them together.

Diao Chan bit her red lips tightly with her pearly teeth, her face flushed with embarrassment as she lowered her head.

He let Duan Yu hold one of his hands.

“Ayu,” said Madam Ren, holding their hands, “Chan’er has a hard life.”

"I lost my parents when I was young."

“I originally didn’t have any children, and I was thinking of adopting Chan’er so that I could take good care of her.”

"But my body is so weak, it has burdened Chan'er for so many years."

Diao Chan quickly raised her head and looked at Madam Ren: "Aunt, I'm not suffering. As long as Aunt's health improves, I won't suffer anymore."

With tears welling in her cloudy eyes, Mrs. Ren nodded: "This child... is kind-hearted and filial."

"Ayu, you are a good man."

"Chan'er told me."

"Although my old woman can't see, she can feel."

"I trust you with my care."

"It was an arranged marriage, and Chan'er's parents passed away early, so I became her mother."

"From now on, I will entrust Chan'er to you. Can you promise your aunt that you will take good care of Chan'er?"

Duan Yu looked at the shy Diao Chan beside him and then nodded.

"Auntie, don't worry, although I, Duan Yu, don't have any great abilities."

"But I can take good care of Chan'er and prevent her from suffering any more hardship."

Mrs. Ren nodded with a smile: "Good, good, good, good."

"Let's eat, let's eat, let's have a family meal together."
