Huo Shichu and Wei Qi didn't know that they had been misunderstood. They were busy entertaining guests. They invited a lot of guests this time. Fortunately, there were a few nimble female guests who were not polite and took the initiative to help Huo Shi. Prepare meals for the first time.
"Xiao Huo, the meal you prepared this time is so good. There are pork, ribs, and chicken. How can ordinary people eat such a sumptuous meal? Did it cost a lot of money?" Aunt Zhou asked while chopping the chicken. Huo Shichu.
"It didn't cost much. The chickens and ducks were raised at home, and the vegetables were grown at home. Only the pork and ribs were bought by Dalang." Huo Shichu answered while flipping the vegetables in the wok neatly.
"Tsk, tsk, that's not much? You are too generous. You are willing to take out so much good meat for everyone to eat..." Another aunt who helped said, "I also went to eat at the wedding banquet of the Zhou family in the village. , what do you think their dishes are?”
"What's there?" Huo Shichu asked her very flatteringly.
The aunt curled her lips and said: "Only one dish is meat! It's said to be chicken stewed with potatoes, but there are only potatoes on the plate and not a few pieces of chicken at all. If you start too slowly, you can't even eat any chicken feathers..."
Huo Shichu couldn't help but laugh. Of course he couldn't eat chicken feathers. Don't you need to pluck the feathers to eat chicken?
"Don't laugh, it's true. I see that there are almost ten tables of guests at his house, but the meat dish may not use up two chickens." The aunt said again.
Aunt Zhou smiled and scolded: "I'm going to eat it for you, but I can't bet on your mouth! And everyone is as capable as Da Lang and Xiao Huo, and they have been able to support the family in a short time."
"That's true..." The aunt said to Huo Shichu with emotion, "Xiao Huo, I really didn't expect you and Dalang to have such luck. Life is about to become more prosperous than most people in the village. They are both strong, and this is a breath of fresh air. Dalang’s father’s family must be jealous to death. It’s true that good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be punished with evil. God will never see the wrong person..."
Huo Shichu said calmly: "Auntie, Dalang and I have both come from hard times. We know that only what we earn with our own hands can belong to us forever. What we earn by squeezing others must always be returned." of."
"That's the truth! You're right!" The lady immediately agreed.
Huo Shichu took out the cooked dishes. Seeing that she was no longer visible, the aunt said to Aunt Zhou: "Who would have thought that Xiao Huo would be so lucky today? When she first came, we all thought Her life is over, and she has to spend her whole life guarding a useless person. There is no hope. Who knew that people would turn over and get better... This person's fate is really magical..."
"What's not magical about it? The couple is able to endure hardships and is willing to work hard. Xiao Huo is also kind and generous, and Da Lang is a strong and competitive person. They are living a good life now. People say that after disasters, there will be blessings. They After suffering so much, it is his turn to be blessed." Aunt Zhou was afraid that these people would be jealous, so she quickly helped Huo Shichu and Wei Qi speak.
"That's right, it's bitter first and then sweet! It's a blessing in disguise that Dalang was able to get rid of the blood-sucking family. After all, after suffering such a serious crime, it would be tragic if he accidentally failed to survive." Another person The aunt also sighed.
Wei Qi entertained the male guests outside and chatted, but the men in the village were naturally more concerned about the crops in the fields and his hunting. The crops did not see Wei Qi's specialness, but everyone saw the hunting. .
So Zhou Dahu asked him eagerly: "Dalang, please teach us how to catch prey. We see you coming back with wild animals every day, and we are very greedy."
Wei Qi smiled and said: "First of all, you must have good skills. After all, hunting requires strength and agility. Otherwise, you have no strength and skills. You can't even run away from a pheasant. If you encounter a wild wolf, you will only be killed." You will end up being bitten to death. Then you have to understand the behavior of the prey, know how to track the prey, and distinguish the feces, footprints and traces of various animals..."
Wei Qi did not hide it, but spoke of his experience very seriously.
When everyone heard that he really taught them without reservation, their first reaction was surprise, and their second reaction was a headache. It sounded like they had to learn a lot.
Zhou Dahu first wailed: "Brother, do you need to learn so many things about hunting? Isn't it too difficult? Can I still practice my skills at my age? My bones are so hard and brittle!"
Wei Ti started and said: "It is true that if a person practices martial arts after he is over twenty, he will no longer be able to practice to a great level. I also joined the army when I was young, and the martial arts I learned in the military camp were not yet available at that time. It’s too late, I’m still learning.”
In fact, that's not the case. The original owner, Wei Dalang, did not have the qualifications to learn martial arts. He only regained his physical skills after coming to this world and being nourished by supernatural powers.
"Then you also suffered a lot to become as good as you are now, right?" Zhou Dahu asked with admiration.
"Yes, my arms and legs are often bruised or swollen when I practice martial arts. No skill can be learned easily." Wei Qi said frankly.
When the people around him heard their words, they all admired his hard work and were no longer jealous of his hunting ability. After all, he worked hard for it, so what's the use of being jealous?
Wei Qi told them about Yuxi City again, asking about various things without leaving any trace, such as the inconvenience of doing business outside, escorting escorts, whether the parents in the county were good officials, and what kind of local snakes there were.
Although this information may not necessarily be correct, the more he knows, the more it will help him understand the full extent of the matter. Therefore, Wei Qi is very patient with these people. Although he is content with a peaceful life in the village, he does not want to know anything about the outside world. As we know, people from the apocalypse have struggled to survive between life and death, and they understand best the importance of being prepared for danger and taking precautions in the bud.
Wei Qi and Huo Shichu's housewarming party was a success, and then they left the deserted house where they had lived for several months and moved into their newly built house.
Huo Shichu lay on her soft and comfortable bed with a thick mattress. She couldn't help but sigh. It was really not easy. She had been in this world for so long and finally had a comfortable bed. She didn't have to worry about it anymore. Living in a dilapidated house with spiders and mosquitoes for company.
Wei Qi's room is at the other end. They all pay great attention to their personal space. Huo Shichu won't talk about it. She has a lot of little secrets. She has to stay far away so that Wei Qi won't catch her pigtails; and Wei Qi doesn't want to show off too much. Jean, he had to practice his powers every day. It would be wrong if Huo Shichu saw the crackling lightning in his hand.
Moreover, he is used to being alert in the apocalypse, and will be awakened by the slightest movement. It is not suitable to live too close to people, otherwise he will accidentally kill people without knowing when he is awakened. Before, they did not have the conditions, but now they have the conditions. , naturally come as comfortable as you want.
