The pastoral concubine of space

Chapter 25 Wolf's Repayment?

After the news about Xiao Yunchu's purchase of the field got out, as expected, the villagers had heated discussions for several days, but it seems that she has made too much trouble recently, and many people are a little numb, except for lamenting that her money is specially forbidden to spend. No particularly unpleasant words came out from outside.

It is also because Xiao Yunchu's recent whereabouts are under everyone's noses, there is no way to get extra money, so no one suspects that she has more than just the money she got from selling the big worm, but thinks that it may be that the big mansion looks grand, but in fact The inner material is not as good as they expected.

Of course, when they have the opportunity to visit in the future, they will know how naive their thoughts are at this time.

On this day, the progress of building the house has reached No. 20 days, most of the house has been improved, and the thatched cottage will be pushed down tomorrow. Xiao Yunchu just came out of the space not long ago, and was about to prepare breakfast, when he suddenly heard someone exclaiming outside. It seemed that he was frightened by something.

"Mom?" The two children also heard the voice and rubbed their eyes and got up from the bed in a daze.

"You go on sleeping, I'll go out and have a look."

Xiao Yunchu came out of the yard and followed the direction of the sound, just in time to see seven or eight villagers who had come to prepare for work in a circle, pointing in the middle and chattering non-stop, pricked up their ears carefully and paused for a moment, and couldn’t help being surprised raised his eyebrows.

"Zichen's mother is here, come and have a look!" Someone spotted her and hurriedly called her over.

Xiao Yunchu walked over to take a look, and saw two dead robes and a deer lying on the ground surrounded by people.

"Uncles, what are these?"

The middle-aged uncle who called her just said 'ah', and said curiously: "Do you think this is strange? We just found out who put the corpses of these two beasts here when we first arrived, and look , Their wounds may have been bitten to death by other wild animals."

"But it doesn't make sense. If the beasts in the mountains kill them, they must be for eating meat. Why throw them here?" Someone next to him asked a question.

"Haha, could it be that it was specially sent for his mother Zichen?"

"Don't say it, maybe it's true." Several uncles joked.

While everyone was still pondering the reason, suddenly a young man who had been silent all this time slapped his forehead and shouted: "I remember! I might know what made it!"

One sentence immediately caught everyone's attention, and they asked urgently, "What's going on, tell me quickly."

The young man scratched his head and said, "I came out to take a urinate when the sun was shining, and I glanced over here, as if I saw a few shadows carrying something over, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye. , I thought it was because I didn't wake up and my eyes were dazzled..."

"You said that, I seemed to have heard some movement in the middle of the night before." Another person recalled, "I seem to have heard wolves howling in the mountains?"

The hairs of the people around stood on end instantly, "Could it be that a wolf has come down the mountain?"

What to do?Specially send two prey to Xiao Yunchu?
Everyone was dumbfounded.

On the contrary, Xiao Yunchu had some guesses in his mind, maybe this wasn't a gift from the wolf head for saving his life, right?I have only heard of cranes repaying their favors before, is this going to repay her with wild wolves?
Xiao Yunchu burst out laughing.

An uncle squatted down and rummaged through the roe deer. He seemed to have found something, and quickly called others, "Look, there are some gray bristles here. They don't look like roe deer. I don't know what animal left them."

Everyone glanced at it and suggested, "Why don't you ask Orion Tu? He is familiar with the affairs in the mountains."

"I'll go!" The young man who just spoke up volunteered to take the gray hair and left in a hurry.

Taking advantage of this time, Xiao Yunchu greeted them and went back to prepare breakfast first, while the rest of the people continued to watch strange things and make random guesses to pass the time.

After Xiao Yunchu cooked the porridge for the two children and took a simple bite, the young man also came back.

Those gray furs are, as expected, wolf furs!In other words, the two prey were indeed sent by wolves in the mountains.

At this time, most of the villagers who helped the workers arrived. After hearing about this incident, they were still thinking about the reason. Xiao Yunchu didn't want to distract them from working hard because of these matters that he had already concluded, so he took the initiative to propose a direction, "Will you be with me?" Was it related to picking up that big worm back then? At that time, that big worm ran into a pack of wolves, other than that, I can’t think of why the wolves would pay attention to me.”

Everyone suddenly realized!

But then another question arose.

Logically speaking, what happened at that time belonged to her in a disguised form and took away the prey of the wolves. It would be good if the wolves didn't hold grudges against her. Why did they continue to give her things instead?
Xiao Yunchu couldn't overthrow his previous words of fooling people, so he could only let them continue to be amazed, anyway, it was up to her, no matter how curious she was, she had to finish the work first!
As for the two prey, since the wolves brought them here, she didn't intend to waste them, so she specially invited the butcher to come over to help deal with them, and the meat was directly brought to the helpers to cook a big meal at noon!Venison can make up!

The result was another surprise!

The dead deer was a male red deer, and there was actually a pair of unossified antlers on its head!Hey!Whether in modern or ancient times, velvet antler is a valuable medicinal material!

Although venison is very nourishing, but relatively the most valuable is the velvet antler. With just two thanking gifts, Xiao Yunchu will make another windfall!

After the villagers who helped the workers got the letter, not to mention envy and emotion, they felt that Xiao Yunchu was so lucky that good things happened to her head together, and when the money was spent, some wolves gave her money inexplicably in disguise. It's not their turn to be cheap!

Of course, it’s not that the villagers who found the two prey at first thought that those who saw them would get a share, but then they thought, it was sent by wolves in the mountains. If they were found to have snatched the things away, would they retaliate? them?

Compared with other people, the villagers who come to help are relatively simple, and their greed is temporary. They are honest and timid in nature, but they dare not take troubles on them, so they are envious, but no one What trouble will come out of the two prey.

Especially when I heard that Xiao Yunchu was going to bring the meat to them for a change of taste, it made me feel even more relieved. No matter what, they can still enjoy it and drink some broth, can't they?
Xiao Yunchu also purposely left some extra meat to send to the village chief's house, and the butcher's house must have sent a few extra catties of meat for him to take back to taste after making them work hard.

At noon that day, a lot of villagers came to the 'construction site' to join in the fun. They are all here, so we can't let them watch and enjoy themselves, right?Well, Xiao Yunchu simply asked Aunt Zhao and Mrs. Wang to work harder, and directly made a big pot of venison soup, braised roe deer meat in soy sauce, so that everyone who came over would be stained with meat.

If she is short-mouthed, there won't be many people who would gossip about her with jealousy, right?She gave away most of the meat, and all she got was the pile of velvet antlers.

You can't let her sell the velvet antlers for the money and give them one by one, right?
Afterwards, Xiao Yunchu thought that the matter of the wolf repaying his favor was over, but he never thought that basically every other day, there would always be more prey in the house, sometimes it was a roe deer, sometimes it was two deer, and occasionally it might not be found temporarily. A suitable large prey is a pile of maybe a dozen pheasants and hares.

Xiao Jiaxuan was buried by so many prey. After four or five batches, she saved three pairs of deer antlers alone, as well as deer antlers, beautiful sika deerskin, and deer whips. Many deer have medicinal treasures. With these follow-up stocks, the velvet antlers were not in a hurry to sell. They only asked Tu Oriehu to help them sell the rest to the medicine hall in Hongye Town and transferred dozens of taels of silver.

Compared with the treasures of tigers, the relative value of deer is still slightly lower. Of course, if the three pairs of antlers are sold, it is another story.
