Riding a Phoenix to Cultivation

Chapter 31 The Village Chief’s Water Mat (3)

Huzi's father and several uncles took advantage of the night and heavy rain to drag the dead snake away from the yard.When he was being dragged away, Fenghuang protested twice, and in the end, Wonton told him reassuringly that he could eat snake meat at the full moon banquet at the village head's house tomorrow, so Fenghuang gave up.

Early the next morning, Wonton took Fenghuang and set off with Mrs. Li to the village chief's house.Because Huang Shu is now the distant nephew of Mrs. Li, she also went with her.

It wasn't too early for Wonton and his party to arrive. When they arrived, there were already several tables of people sitting in the yard of the village chief's house.

Because Mrs. Li's seniority is considered high in the village, people would greet Mrs. Li basically all the way into the house of the village head.

As soon as they entered the house, Huzi and Duoduo from the village head's family ran towards Wonton. Several children gathered together and made a lot of noise. Mrs. Li thought they were making a fuss, so she drove them out.

Wonton was hugging Phoenix, and beside him was Huang Shu with a strange face.Seeing the phoenix in Wonton's hand, Dodo cried out in surprise, "Wonton, why did you bring a chicken? Our family prepared a lot of meat today!"

When Huzi heard his sister say this, he also nodded naively and said, "Wonton, my father and the others bought a lot of meat last night. My mother and the others worked in the kitchen in the middle of the night to prepare today's food. You don't have to Bring chicken."

When Wonton heard Huzi and Douduo's words, she understood that the two had misunderstood.

It turns out that in the countryside of Mingyun, if there is a family who wants to hold a running water banquet for a few days because of a happy event, then the people who go to participate in the running water banquet usually have to bring some rice from their own homes, and take a la carte back to the host's house.Otherwise, no matter how rich the host's family is, they won't be able to supply the running water mats for two or three days in a row.

Today, when Mrs. Li went out, she brought a basket of vegetables that she had just picked from the vegetable garden, in addition to bringing the wontons with her.

Wonton thought that Huzi and the others hadn't seen it, so they took the Phoenix as their gift in return.

"You guys are mistaken. This... chicken was not given to you. Grandma brought the food. This chicken is raised by me, just like your puppy." Wonton said, putting it on the The hands on Phoenix's body were removed, and the bright feathers of Phoenix were straightened out.

"Look, isn't this chicken beautiful?" Wonton originally wanted to say that it was a young animal and could not be eaten.But grandma told her not to tell anyone the identity of the cub before going out, so Wonton made up such a reason.

However, this cub was indeed raised by her, right?
Dodo has a puppy, and for this reason, she asked her mother to make a sleeping basket.So when Dodo saw the beautiful feathers of the phoenix, she quickly nodded and said, "Yes, this chicken is really beautiful, and it's good to keep. When it doesn't look good in the future, you can eat it!"

At this time, Fenghuang in Wonton's arms had just woken up, who would have heard Duoduo's innocent words, then Fenghuang poked his head out and stared at Doduo fiercely.

Fenghuang was extremely depressed. Why do all the children in the lower realm want to eat, and their eyesight is not good. Is there such a beautiful chicken in this world?
After giving Duoduo a contemptuous look, Fenghuang retracted into Wonton's arms, ready to continue sleepwalking in Taixu.

However, at this moment, Huzi, who was standing beside Duoduo, lifted Fenghuang out of Wonton's arms, and said in doubt, "Wonton, this chicken looks so special. I seem to feel spiritual fluctuations in his body." .”

Fenghuang, who had closed his eyes just now, opened them in an instant because of Huzi's words, without any sleepiness at all.
