The "it smells so good" phenomenon has reappeared.

Coal Ball ate three pieces of rabbit meat in a row, and still wanted more.

Lin Hongwen couldn't help but ask, "Won't it get sick from eating so much?"

The cat was only the size of a palm, yet those three pieces of meat were bigger than its entire body, and it ate them bones and all.

He was definitely not heartbroken over the meat.

Lin Shuyun tapped the little head of the coal ball. "It's not stupid. It will stop eating when it's full. If it keeps eating, it's not full."

After saying that, he picked up another piece of meat and gave it to Coal Ball.

Mountain cats may be different from domesticated breeds. They can even find rare and precious animals, so they must have some kind of spiritual energy. They can eat cooked food with seasonings without any problems.

He ate the coal ball without even looking up: Meow, you're the only woman who understands me.

Lin Shuyun also started eating. Seeing that Lin Hongwen wasn't touching his chopsticks much, she said, "Eat quickly, don't dawdle. I have things to do after you finish eating."

Lin Hongwen took a bite of meat, bubbling with happiness, but thinking about his family's current situation, he felt like crying again.

Suppressing the stinging in her nose, she grinned and said, "Sis, your cooking was delicious when you were home, but it's even better now."

Lin Shuyun nodded, "Eat more if you like it, I'll serve you more when you're done."

Aside from his tendency to cry, this kid is actually quite pleasing to the eye.

"Thank you, sister." Lin Hongwen said thank you, but he had already made up his mind not to eat anything later.

The siblings ate while talking, with Lin Hongwen doing most of the talking and Lin Shuyun occasionally chiming in.

"Cough, Yunniang, I want to drink some water."

Jiang Changtian, who had been ignored on the kang for a long time, coughed lightly.

"Oh, husband, wait a minute." Lin Shuyun said as she ran to the kitchen to pour water and then came back.

"Thank you for your trouble, Yunniang." Jiang Changtian took the bowl of water and lowered his eyes.

"No trouble at all, I'll add some more meat for you."

Lin Shuyun made another trip to refill Jiang Changtian's bowl.

The rest was added to Lin Hongwen's bowl, and it was no use for him to refuse.

Lin Hongwen was so moved he almost cried again. This was the first time he had ever eaten meat until he was 80% full, and the rabbit meat was so delicious.

After finishing his meal, Lin Hongwen was about to leave.

Even at the door, she looked at Lin Shuyun with lingering reluctance, "Sister, remember to come back early tomorrow when you return to your parents' home."

Lin Shuyun then remembered that married women are supposed to return to their parents' home on the third day after marriage.

"Your brother-in-law has difficulty walking, so I won't be going back. Please tell your parents."

She's not the same Lin Shuyun anymore. It's one thing for others to know, but her own parents will definitely see through her disguise, so it's best for her to stay away from them.

Lin Hongwen burst into tears upon hearing this, "Sister, are you blaming us? Dad is too..."

"Alright! If you cry again, I'll hit you. I'm going back tomorrow." Lin Shuyun irritably tugged at her hair.

What a fine young man, why does he have this habit of crying so easily?

Lin Hongwen then stopped crying and started laughing, running away while looking back every few steps.

Lin Shuyun closed the door, washed the pots and pans, and went to another empty room to change into the clothes that Lin Hongwen had brought.

The empty house had nothing but cracked walls on all four sides, and even the roof had a large hole, making it completely uninhabitable.

The package contained three and a half new outfits, all made of subpar materials, but Lin Shuyun was delighted, as they solved her immediate problem.

She was still wearing the red dress she wore when she got married, so at least she had something to change into.

After changing her clothes, Lin Shuyun came to Jiang Changtian's room. Jiang Changtian had just finished relieving himself and was pulling up his pants when he saw her, and his ears immediately turned red.

Lin Shuyun smiled. "I have to go out for a bit and I might be back late. Will you be alright at home by yourself?"

"Where are you going?"

Jiang Changtian looked up and asked the question, but then felt it was inappropriate. He was already a burden to her, a useless person, so what reason did she have to control him?

Lin Shuyun said, "I'm going to town to buy some things. Meiqiu will stay home with you."

Now that Jiang Changtian could relieve himself, Lin Shuyun was no longer worried and cleaned the urinal and put it back down.

Before leaving, Lin Shuyun poured Jiang Changtian a bowl of water and placed it on the kang table, and also took the bowl of plums that he hadn't eaten.

He also stuffed the coal ball, which was dozing off on the table, into Jiang Changtian's arms.

Finally, he carried the two rabbits and the dead snake in his basket and went out.

Coal Ball, who was fast asleep, was suddenly awakened: Meow Meow Cat, you damn woman, I was just about to reluctantly stay with you, and this is how you treat me?

As he was cursing, he looked up and saw Jiang Changtian.

The person and the cat exchanged a glance, then turned their heads away in mutual disdain.

Jiang Changtian frowned. "What kind of taste do you have? Picking up something so dark, it's so noisy."

Coal Ball leaped onto the kang table and glared at Jiang Changtian with disdain: "Foolish human, how dare you say that I'm dark-skinned? You're too ugly, you're not worthy of the woman I've chosen!"

Jiang Changtian's eyes turned cold: "What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"

Coal Ball bristles: Meow! It can actually understand what I, the cat, am saying?! It's a monster!

……

……

Lin Shuyun had no idea that a fight had broken out at home as soon as she stepped out.

She wrapped the wooden door with vines as usual and walked towards the town according to her memory.

The sun was scorching and intense, but Lin Shuyun walked very fast, taking about an hour to reach the nearby town.

Lin Shuyun wiped the sweat from her brow and asked around for directions to nearby restaurants and eateries.

She was pretty, and the person she asked for directions was quite enthusiastic, readily pointing her to a rather large restaurant.

Lin Shuyun thanked him, and when she reached the door, the waiter greeted her warmly.

"Young lady, what would you like to eat? Please come inside."

Lin Shuyun asked, "Do you buy rabbits here?"

The waiter shook his head, "Meat spoils easily in this hot weather and doesn't sell well, don't buy it."

"Where's the snake? Do you want the snake?"

As Lin Shuyun spoke, she took off her basket and pulled out a dead snake from it.

The waiter was startled and said in a bad tone, "Who would eat worms? This looks poisonous. No, no, you have to leave right now, it's terrifying!"

Lin Shuyun wasn't angry at being chased away; she simply put the dead snake back into her basket.

Since she couldn't sell the rabbits, she decided to try her luck at the pharmacy.

Just then, a wealthy young man with a servant holding an umbrella came out of the restaurant across the street and his eyes lit up when he saw Lin Shuyun.

"My lady, you've come to town?"

"My wife, you promised to come see me three days ago, why didn't you come?"

Lin Shuyun looked up at the person. A strand of hair was stuck in her forehead, and her face was covered in makeup. She looked effeminate and was wearing silk even in the sweltering heat.

Who was it? Did she know him?
