Chapter 51 Caught a White Fox

Ever since he found out that Su Ran was pregnant, Li Er became even more silent.

Every morning he went up the mountain early to cut firewood and hunt, and every night he brought back much more things than before.At night, after washing his face and soaking his feet, he went to bed and hugged Su Ran, rubbing her flat belly with his big palms, without saying a word.Several times Su Ran woke up early in the morning and found that he was already up, his eyes were still staring at her belly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

But as soon as he found that Su Ran opened his eyes, he quickly looked back, turned over and got out of bed, tidied up and went up the mountain to work.

Confused, Su Ran quietly told Huang about it.After hearing this, Huang covered her stomach and laughed: "It's okay, my son-in-law just knew that he was going to be a father, so he was nervous! Your father was just like him back then. He didn't know how nervous he was when I was pregnant with you." , who is next to me every day, and I can’t drive him away. I said I’m fine, but he didn’t feel at ease. Later, when I gave birth to Brother Quan, Brother Ang, he was not like this. I’ll wait for you to give birth to two more Well, he'll be fine!"

This child has not been born yet, so are you thinking about having two more?

Su Ran was stunned, but she found in her heart that she didn't seem to be very disgusted with this matter.She couldn't help touching her belly again, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly - if it was to bear children for him, she thought it would be good to have more children.

Now that she knew that Li Er's behavior was normal, Su Ran felt relieved.She continued to look behind the rabbit.Seeing that the first litter of rabbits has grown up, and even the second litter of rabbits has started to be born one after another, now this small house for raising rabbits is almost not enough.It seems that when Brother Quan and the others come back, they have to ask them to help build another house to raise the little rabbits.By the way, the first batch of rabbits can now be released for sale.Slowly, they can move around with their hands!
Thinking about this prospect, Su Ran felt full of motivation, and her mood became extraordinarily good.

After working around the rabbit all day, at night, Li Er came back from the mountain.He went straight to Su Ran and grabbed a snow-white fox from the basket behind his back.

Seeing this little thing, Su Ran was taken aback: "Where did you catch it?"

"On the mountain." Li Er pointed to the majestic mountain behind him, "I saw it years ago, and I finally caught one today."

Hearing what he said... "Are there still a few more?"

"There are four in a litter." Li Er replied to her.

"But you only caught one." Su Ran said softly.

"Is one not enough?" Li Er asked in surprise.

Su Ran chuckled. "That's enough, of course it's enough! I'll be offended if you kill that litter! It's all very well to catch one. But the litter won't be seen by anyone, will it?"

Such a snow-white fox with no visible fur on its body is rare, and the price is of course very expensive.If other hunters see it, they will definitely try their best to kill them all.

Who knew that Li Er immediately said: "If they see it, they won't be able to catch it."

Such a confident tone surprised Su Ran.However, since he said so, she still chose to believe him in her heart.Moreover, why did she feel as proud as he did when he said that?

Su Ran nodded. "That's good. It looks like we're going to go to town together tomorrow?"

"Are you going?" Upon hearing this, Li Er frowned.

Su Ran smiled lightly. "Before I didn't find out that I was pregnant, didn't I go to Huajie with you all night? Since the child is fine then, it is impossible for him to be fine now. Besides, I still have you by my side, wouldn't you How about protecting me?"

Li Er immediately nodded. "certainly."

"That's all right?" Su Ran smiled, and stuffed the fox into his hand again, "Look at this thing! We can bring a batch of rabbits tomorrow, and we should be able to sell them for a good price."

Li Er hummed lightly again, carried the fox and stuffed it back into the basket.

After a while, Mrs. Huang and sister Qiu saw this fox, and they also looked around for a while.The two little yellow dogs kept circling around the basket, whining and barking, extremely excited.

Early the next morning, the couple simply cleaned up and went to the town to deliver things together.

This time they did not go to Xianwailou, but went directly to the door of Mr. Chen's house.The gatekeeper had met Su Ran in Wushan Village with Mr. Chen last time. When he saw them coming, he immediately went in and reported to Mr. Chen.Master Chen hurriedly asked someone to call them in, and looked at Su Ran cheerfully: "Miss Su, are you planning to change your mind and come to work in my restaurant?"

Su Ran shook her head. "I'm pregnant and can't do as much work."

Master Chen's face, which was four or five points similar to Mr. Chen's, immediately put a smile on his face. "Then what are you doing here?"

"My man went hunting in the mountains yesterday and caught a good thing. I brought it here for you today." Su Ran said, and Li Er took out the white fox.

When Master Chen saw it, his eyes lit up immediately.

He couldn't sit still anymore, so he ran over quickly, took the fox with both hands, and looked at it again and again. "It's really a white fox! This appearance is so beautiful! Where did you catch it?"

"It's on the mountain behind our village." Su Ran said again.

"Just this one?" Master Chen looked directly at Li Er.

Su Ran's heart sank, and Li Er nodded. "Just one."

"No, foxes live in groups. There must be more than one such a beautiful white fox. It must have companions on the mountain!" Master Chen said loudly.

Li Er shook his head. "I did not see it."

"You really didn't see it?" Master Chen looked at him suspiciously.

Li Er looked at him generously. "I didn't see it."

Master Chen stared into his eyes for a long time, but he didn't see the slightest guilty conscience in his eyes, so he looked away reluctantly. "This white fox is a good thing! But if you caught it and didn't sell it, you mentioned it to me. What are you doing?"

Li Er shut up immediately, and Su Ran said: "The white fox is a good thing. If you sell it, I'm afraid that other people in the town will not be able to afford it. In our Wushan Town, only you, Mr. Chen If we have the courage to take it down, then we won’t waste time going outside.”

"Hahaha, Miss Su, you are very interesting! This mouth is getting better and better at speaking!" Master Chen was in a great mood when he heard that.

Su Ran lowered her head. "I'm just telling the truth."

"Hahaha, what a truth! It would be great if everyone in this world loves to tell the truth as much as you do!" Mr. Chen smiled even more happily, and quickly told the boy, "Go and ask the young master to take the truth." 20 taels of silver over here."

The boy quickly agreed to go, and Master Chen carried the fox back and forth to look at it.The more he watched, the more he kept praising Li Er, and by the way, he also praised Li Er's good craftsmanship.But no matter how much he praised, Li Er just stood there motionless, as if he was complimenting someone else.

After a short meeting, Mr. Chen came over with 20 taels of silver.

After entering the door, he saw the white fox in Master Chen's hand, and couldn't help exclaiming: "What a beautiful white fox! Who caught this?"

"It's Miss Su's man, Li Er." Master Chen pointed to Li Er, and then told his son, "These 20 taels of silver are hard-earned money for them. You should hand it over to them!"

"Okay!" Mr. Chen hurriedly passed the money to Li Er.

Li Er looked at Su Ran and saw that Su Ran nodded, so he took the money.

After getting the money, Su Ran offered to leave.Master Chen still wanted to keep them: "It's rare that the first thing you think of when you get such a good thing is to send it to me. How can I not express it? You can have dinner at my house at noon today! I will ask the kitchen to add two more dishes. !"

"No need, we still have to send the rabbit to the restaurant." Su Ran shook her head quickly.

Master Chen narrowed his eyes. "By the way, I remembered that you are raising rabbits at home now? After raising them for such a long time, the rabbits should be out of the cage, right?"

Su Ran nodded. "yes."

"That's just right, the bacon in our restaurant sells very well, and the braised rabbit meat is also very popular with customers. It just so happens that I plan to open another restaurant in the town. Since you have been selling rabbits, your rabbits will be exclusively sold in the future." The restaurant for our family is ready, I will definitely give you a good price!" Master Chen said immediately.Having said that, without waiting for Su Ran's reaction, he hurriedly asked someone to call shopkeeper Liu over.

It will take some time for shopkeeper Liu to come over, so Mr. Chen invites Su Ran and his wife to stay for dinner.

Su Ran could only helplessly agree.
