Fang Xin nodded hastily without any hesitation.

"We'll go up the mountain to dig for medicinal herbs later."

"Huh?" Fang Xin pouted and muttered softly, "This basket of medicinal herbs can only sell for a few copper coins, how can we afford to buy meat?"

Fang Xin just muttered a few words casually, but she still had to go to the mountain to dig for medicinal herbs. After all, they had been kicked out, and the only way to earn money was to dig for medicinal herbs in the mountains.

She asked again, "Sister, are you healthy enough to go up the mountain? Why don't you stay home and rest, and I'll go with Mother..."

Before she could finish speaking, she caught a glimpse of Fang Yu's resentful gaze and immediately covered her mouth, changing her words: "I forgot, my sister is all better now, let's go!"

Li did not stop her. Even if she was stupid, she could tell that Fang Yu was not as weak as before when she was at the Fang family. He was also stronger than before. She would not ask what had happened in between.

"Then you two sisters should be careful on your way, and don't go too far into the mountains. I have to go see your Aunt Jiang later, so I won't be able to stay with you."

Although they encountered wild boars yesterday, people go up the mountain every day, and as long as they don't go too deep into the mountains, they'll be fine, so Li is at ease.

Before leaving, Fang Yu instructed with concern, "Mother, if the Fang family comes looking for you again, just kick them out. Don't be afraid of them."

Li nodded in agreement: "Okay, come back soon."

Along the way up the mountain, we stopped and started, and we encountered several people who were already digging for medicinal herbs.

One of them looked up with a mocking smile: "Oh, isn't this Sister Yu and Sister Xin? I heard you were lucky enough to find a wild boar yesterday and sold it for a lot of money. Why are you up the mountain again today? You can't find wild boars every day, can you?"

Fang Xin felt uncomfortable listening to the man's sarcastic voice and was about to retort when Fang Yu paused slightly, glanced at the man, and said calmly, "If you're not convinced, you can go pick one up yourself."

The man immediately retorted, "What's so arrogant about that? How dare someone who's been kicked out stay in Xishan Village and act all high and mighty? Shameless!"

"Who are you calling shameless? Say it again, or I'll tear your mouth apart!" Fang Xin retorted defiantly, hands on her hips.

Fang Yu pulled her back: "Xin'er, arguing here is a waste of time. We have other things to do."

Fang Xin obediently composed herself and put on a smile: "Then let's go quickly, sister. The air here smells sour and foul. I'm afraid I'll feel nauseous if I stay any longer."

"you……"

The man tried to retort, but Fang Yu's cold glare forced him back.

The man immediately felt a chill, his slightly open mouth slowly closed and he pursed it tightly, as if a cold sensation had rushed from the soles of his feet to his forehead.

They watched helplessly as the two Fang sisters left.

Fang Xin would never have dared to act so aggressively towards others before. If Zhang Shi found out, she would definitely get a beating and scolding, and she would be said to have brought shame to the Fang family.

Things are different now; she can do whatever she wants.

Fang Yu didn't think too much about it. She really felt that there was no point in getting entangled with these ignorant village women, and just kept walking forward in a hurry.

"Sister," Fang Xin suddenly called from behind, "There are medicinal herbs over there, let's dig them here."

It's quite a distance from here to the deep mountains, which makes things a bit difficult, but bringing Xin'er along is also inconvenient.

Fang Yu put down his basket: "Then let's dig here first."

Fang Xin picked up a hoe and started digging, while Fang Yu looked around.

There were no signs of wild animals around here, so it seems that if we want to hunt wild animals, we'll have to venture into the deep mountains.

She squatted down and helped dig for a while, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

This body has been in a state of constant depletion, and it cannot be saved by a single pill or a sip of spiritual spring water; it requires time to consolidate.

Fang Xin handed her the bamboo water container she was carrying: "Sister, have some water and rest for a while. I'll do the digging."

She didn't refuse, took the water bucket and walked to the side, sat down against the tree trunk, and rested for a while before speaking: "Xin'er, I remember seeing a large patch of herbs ahead yesterday, I'd like to go and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Fang Xin looked up, sweat trickling down her cheeks, and asked in confusion, "Really? I didn't see it."

Fang Yu waved to her: "Xin'er, come here, have some water and rest for a while. I'm going to check things out ahead, I'll be right back."

"Sister, it's not safe up in the mountains. Let me come with you."

Fang Yu reached out and rubbed her head: "It's okay, you rest for a while. I can even kill a wild boar, so don't worry about me."

Fang Xin's eyes lit up: "Sis, did you really kill that wild boar last time?"

Fang Yu nodded: "Okay, so don't worry, you keep digging, I'll go check and be right back."

This time, Fang Xin did not stop her. Watching Fang Yu's figure gradually walk away, she sat on the ground, propped her head up, and murmured to herself, "My sister is really different from before, but she is still just as good."

Fang Yu quickened her pace and walked deeper into the mountains, searching for traces of wild animals along the way.

She took out a rope gun from her spatial storage, climbed to the top of a tree trunk, and looked out into the distance through the gaps in the leaves. Everything within her sight was clearly visible.

It seems that finding prey is not easy, but it's not a problem for her.

She took out a bottle of nourishing pills. The pills seemed ordinary, but they emitted a spiritual energy that humans could not detect, but wild beasts could sense.

She took out a few seeds, crushed them, dissolved them in water, and splashed the mixture around the area. Before she even left, birds and beasts fell from the treetops to the ground to peck at the food.

Just as she expected, all she had to do was wait.

I had just found a place to hide and sit for a while when I heard some small movements in the nearby bushes. I guessed it was some kind of small animal.

Sure enough, several gray and white rabbits jumped out of the grass, all with their heads down eating the wild grass on the ground that was stained with the medicinal liquid.

Rabbits aren't worth much, so Fang Yu has to wait a bit longer.

Suddenly, a rapid "thump thump thump!..." sound of hooves came from afar.

Fang Yu's lips curled up as he looked in a certain direction and muttered to himself, "They're here."

Two or three wild deer of varying sizes but all very robust rushed out from the bushes and stopped where she had sprinkled water.

From a distance, the wild deer appeared to be grazing with their heads down, but in reality, they were licking the water droplets on the ground.

Fang Yu took the pistol he had prepared beforehand, aimed it at the fattest of the wild deer, and pulled the trigger.

With a soft thud, the wild deer that had been hit collapsed to the ground, startling the other deer that were still licking water droplets nearby, causing them to scatter and flee.

She could have caught more, but Tianxianglou's business was sluggish, and she didn't plan to make a living by hunting, so there was no need.

Fang Yu walked over and took the bullet out when he heard light footsteps behind him.

Looking back, they were acquaintances.
