Chapter 8 Pretending to be a Newbie

Back home, she sorted the medicinal materials to dry on the flat stone slab outside the cave, and then brought the only hare she shot this morning to Mrs. Li, and asked her to stew it for everyone to eat another day.

Li Shi was shocked, "You can shoot your prey so quickly?"

"It's not too fast, I shot more than ten times before I hit it." Ye Anlan didn't want to brazenly say that she was "a genius without a teacher", so she could only perform hard and pretend that she was a novice.

Ms. Li looked relieved, "Our Yuan Niang is indeed a general's tiger daughter. If your mother is still alive to see me, what are you talking about?"

Ye Anlan patted Li Shi on the back—she is a person from the end of the world, she has no feeling for the original owner's mother at all. Compared to her, Li Shi is the one who will be unable to let go of the other party's death for a long time.

After briefly comforting her adoptive mother, Ye Anlan quickly changed the subject, "By the way, mother, did you get the eggs I asked you to change?"

"It's changed." Li Shi thought about the need for an egg per person per day, and her distressed energy came up again. She said to Ye Anlan: "We have pig's head meat to eat today, so why don't you eat eggs?"

"Okay." Ye Anlan was both amused and helpless, "Then you can order an extra bowl of rice or noodles to make everyone full."

Li Shi: No wonder Ye Jinkui secretly told her last night that the eldest daughter became a prodigal son after recovering from her illness.

In the afternoon, Ye Anlan was fully armed and went to the mountain alone.

Without the three little Doudings holding her back, Ye Anlan went a little further this time.

When she came back again, she brought back a basket of herbs, two pheasants, and a dozen eggs.

Li Shi was stunned, and it took a while to find his voice, "You, did you catch the prey again?"

Ye Anlan smiled, "Yes."

She doesn't want to be so ostentatious, but she must show her true strength as soon as possible, because only in this way can she grasp a greater voice in the Ye family.

In the next ten days or so, Ye Anlan spent the morning exercising with her younger siblings while collecting herbs and hunting; The regular days of writing on the branches.

Ye Jinkui will help her sell the medicinal materials she brought back. Li Shi will feed the pheasants and hares she brought back to the people who helped them build the house. If there are nuts, Mrs. Li will take out some for the family every day.

Ye Anlan was not very satisfied with Li Shi's distribution method, but the little Doudings in the family felt that they were living a fairy life during this time.

They are very happy, so happy that even if no one calls them, they will find work for themselves. Ye Anlan was busy earning money these days, and these children were not idle. Erlang took his two younger sisters and brought back a lot of dry firewood for the family.

They have been working hard to learn what Ye Anlan taught them.

Ye Anlan who noticed all this was very happy. She really loves these three little bean dings, but what she thinks of love is not just pampering and protecting.

In her opinion, in today's troubled times, it is impossible for anyone to be powerful enough to protect someone for a lifetime.

She believes that the correct way to treat her younger siblings is to make them stronger together with herself, because only in this way can they live fearlessly in the future by relying on their own efforts.

When it was almost ten days before winter came, Ye Anlan's family packed up their things and moved into their new house at the end of the village.

On the same day, Ye Anlan's ex-fiancé Liu Zhihong, a talented scholar who had been invisible during his and Ye Anlan's divorce, returned to the village from Fucheng in a carriage.

What the Ye family who were busy hosting the hot pot banquet didn't know was that in the Liu family at this time, Liu Zhihong was frowning and complaining to his parents, "I told you that this matter should not be a big deal, why are you still talking to me?" The Ye family established such a written evidence?"

The Ye family saved his grandfather's life, and this engagement is also the result of this. Now that they are retiring from the Ye family, if others find out, they will definitely murmur behind their backs that their family is ungrateful.

If it was just a few words behind the back of the villagers, it would be fine, but now his parents actually set up a written statement for the Ye family. With this ironclad evidence, when he becomes an official in the future, others will definitely use this reason to attack him.

He was angry, and his mother Wang was also extremely wronged, "Son, you haven't seen how annoying that little **** Ye Yuanniang is. It was she who proposed to find Li Zheng, and it was also the written proof that she insisted on setting up with our family. , she even slapped Wei Niang, she"

"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Liu Feng was impatient, if this stupid woman hadn't opened her mouth to swear, Ye Yuanniang wouldn't have slapped her directly. If you ask him, this stupid woman is purely to blame.

He said to Liu Zhihong: "Your mother is greedy for petty gains and wants to get the jade pendant from Ye's family. Ye Yuanniang took advantage of it, saying that she can't trust our family, and she insists on going to Lizheng to testify for them. Father has no choice."

"Okay, you **** Liu!" Wang Shi felt guilty and ashamed, and she tried to defend herself, "You speak as you say, why are you pulling me? I forgot, not on purpose."

Halfway through the sophistry, Mrs. Wang stopped talking under Liu Zhihong's stare of substantive condemnation.

Liu Zhihong rubbed the center of his brows vigorously—he, a mother who used to drag his family back, is really ignorant, ignorant, and short-sighted as always.

He was silent for a while, trying to suppress the irritability in his heart, "Forget it, things are already like this, it's too late to say anything now."

Liu Feng comforted him, "I don't think the Ye family intends to publicize this matter. Ye Yuanniang probably did this simply because she didn't want your mother to show off in front of the Ye family in the future."

Wang Shi, who was glanced at by his son again, shrank his head and put on a quail, but in his heart he didn't care about Liu Zhihong's excessive caution.

In her opinion, her son is a lord. Even if their family did something to the Ye family, how could it be possible for a poor family like the Ye family to turn upside down?

"By the way, your marriage"

"It's already been decided." Liu Zhihong glanced at his father, "The date of marriage is set on the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month."

Liu Feng rubbed his hands happily, "Okay, okay, my son is promising."

Liu Zhihong twitched the corner of his mouth, "You should pay more attention to my marriage, I don't want any more messy things to come out of nowhere."

When Wang heard this, the smile froze on his face. She looked at Liu Zhihong in disbelief, "Son, what do you mean? You can't trust your mother?"

Liu Feng glared at her, "If you want others to trust you, you should be more reliable in what you do. Don't always be greedy for petty gains and suffer big losses, and cause trouble for our son for nothing."

Ms. Wang refused to accept it, but she didn't dare to be stubborn, so she could only silently put this account on Ye Anlan—blame that **** girl! If it wasn't for that dead girl being fierce and smart, she would definitely be able to get that jade pendant!
