A Hunter's Wife

After smelling the fragrance for a long time, Mao Xiaoyu was already hungry.

Rong Xiang did not eat as delicately as Mao Xiaoyu.

If he did not have to spit out the bones, he could have swallowed the fish in a few bites.

He did not expect the grilled fish to be so delicious with just one seasoning.

“What did you use to mix this material? Why does it taste so good?” Rong Xiang asked.

He did not know what was in the seasoning anyway!

“It’s a secret!” Mao Xiaoyu kept him in suspense.

She did not want to keep him in suspense, but based on the girl’s limited memory, cumin did not exist in this time and space.

So she could not explain it to Rong Xiang.

fortunately, Rong Xiang knew that his wife had a secret, so he did not ask.

“I’ll prepare more for you later. You can bring a bag when you go up the mountain in the future.” Seeing that Rong Xiang was ‘well-behaved’, Mao Xiaoyu naturally would not be stingy.

“Alright, then I’ll thank Xiaoyu.” Rong Xiang was in a good mood and smiled.

“No need to thank me!” Mao Xiaoyu chuckled.

The meal ended with Mao Xiaoyu eating half a baked bun and half a fish.

As for the rest of the food, Rong Xiang did not mind that they were leftovers from Mao Xiaoyu and he swept them all into his stomach.

After drinking half a bag of water in one breath, Rong Xiang stopped drinking.

He must have drunk all the water in his water bag just now!

The taste of this water is…

He had been replenishing his water from this pool all year round, so he could recognize the taste of the water here with his eyes closed!

This water…

It was Mao Xiaoyu who refilled his water bag!

Rong Xiang’s eyes flickered, and he controlled his expression tiredly.

Is my wife a little too big-hearted?

If you have a secret, you should just keep it to yourself. why did you have to play so many tricks?

He closed the water bag expressionlessly and burped exaggeratedly. “I’m so full.”

Mao Xiaoyu was very nervous now. Although Rong Xiang was acting ‘normal’, she had clearly seen his strange behavior when he drank the water.

She did not expect Rong Xiang to be so sharp. He had noticed it when only half a cup of spirit spring water was gone.

“Then exercise a little and go catch some fish!” Mao Xiaoyu pretended to be calm.

Perhaps he felt that the atmosphere between the two was a little strange, Rong Xiang nodded in agreement. “Okay, I will try to fill the wooden bucket.”

Running faster than a rabbit, Rong Xiang changed the location of the net, leaving only a small back view for Mao Xiaoyu.

“Whew~” Mao Xiaoyu patted her chest and took a few deep breaths of fresh air.

She had to be more careful in the future!

She did not want to be seen as a monster!

Miss Mao Xiaoyu, who did not know that she had already lost most of her cover, tried her best to prepare herself mentally.

While Rong Xiang was catching fish, Mao Xiaoyu was not idle. She walked around where Rong Xiang could see and picked a lot of edible mushrooms.

Rong Xiang pointed to a weed not far away. “That’s called water celery. It’s edible too.”

Based on his observation, Mao Xiaoyu might not know water celery.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have dug up all the wild vegetables except for the water celery.

“Really?” Mao Xiaoyu put the mushroom into the bag,

“Yes, the taste is a little lighter than celery, but it’s not bad when mixed with other food.” Rong Xiang explained.

“I’ll go pick some and make dumplings for you guys tomorrow!” When Mao Xiaoyu heard that it was similar to celery, she thought of dumplings.

She really liked to eat dumplings.

Since she was going to town tomorrow, she could buy some pork and noodles.

After Mao Xiaoyu had gone far away, Rong Xiang mumbled with a puzzled face, “Dumplings? what are those?”

He had never heard of a dish called dumplings in his life!

Where did this little wife come from?

Why were there so many strange things?

Where was the real Mao Daya? Was she still alive?

Rong Xiang’s head was filled with question marks, but he only dared to hide them in his heart.

Mao Xiaoyu picked up a piece of water celery and sniffed it. It had the unique fragrance of celery.

“It’s quite tender. It shouldn’t be a problem to make dumplings!” As Mao Xiaoyu mumbled to herself, she picked some water celery quickly.

She only stopped after picking two handfuls, about two catties.

These were enough for them to eat for a meal. It would be a waste to pick too many.

If it was delicious, she would pick theagain next time.

On the other side, Rong Xiang had also finished catching fish.

The wooden bucket was almost full, and there was no place to keep the fish.

The two ends of the carrying pole were carrying wild animals, mountain delicacies, and Mao Xiaoyu’s bag of herbs and wild vegetables.

When Mao Xiaoyu came close, he picked up the shoulder pole and a bucket full of fish in his other hand.

“You can walk down the mountain like this?” Mao Xiaoyu was shocked.

Was this person stupid? She was still a human with all four limbs, right?

Why did he carry everything with him? Did he want her to go down the mountain empty-handed?

“I can!” Rong Xiang was confused.

He often went down the mountain like this. Otherwise, how could he get so much prey?

“What about me? Just that fish net and these two handfuls of water celery?” Mao Xiaoyu pointed at her own nose and asked.

“Why don’t you put the water celery in the bag?” When Rong Xiang should be smart, he became stupid again.

He had never interacted with a girl before, so he did not know why Mao Xiaoyu was suddenly unhappy.

Mao Xiaoyu took a few deep breaths and shouted, “Give me back my bag. I’ll take it myself!”

It was a miracle that this person could grow so tall! He actually was not crushed by the weight of carrying so many things!

She still remembered a joke that a classmate once told her. She said that she was short because her family was poor when she was young. She always helped her family with the farm and was crushed by heavy objects.

“This is heavy, you can’t carry it!” Rong Xiang did not give it to her.

Mao Xiaoyu placed her hands on her hips angrily. “I can take it myself. if you don’t give it to me, I won’t go up the mountain with you in the future!”

Mao Xiaoyu glared at Rong Xiang, as if she would not leave if he did not give her the sack.

“It’ll take more than an hour to go down the mountain. Why don’t I give it to you after we’ve walked half the way?” Rong Xiang bargained.

The girls and wives in the village were probably eager for others to help them carry heavy things. Why was his own wife so different?

Rong Xiang was confused and could not understand what Mao Xiaoyu was thinking.

What else could she think? Mao Xiaoyu would never admit that her heart ached for Rong Xiang.

With so many things on his body, he was afraid that his shoulder would be injured when he got home.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time, and finally, Rong Xiang compromised.

He returned the bag to Mao Xiaoyu and sighed. The little girl is young, but she’s quite stubborn!

“Hmph, I can take it myself! Why should I be a good-for-nothing? Let me help!” With that, Mao Xiaoyu threw the bag on her shoulder and walked in front of Rong Xiang with the fishing net.

This was her third time here and she already knew the way.

Rong Xiang shook his head helplessly, picked up the pile of things on the ground, and quickly caught up.
