He Hongyang served her several more pieces: "There's so much meat, eat as much as you want."
"My two younger sisters are growing, so they should eat more."
"You're growing too, so you should eat more."
Hearing his concern, Wang Liying was moved once again: "Thank you, Brother Hongyang."
She changed how she called him to distinguish him from others and to show her closeness to him.
He Hongyang handed her another steamed bun, saying, "From now on, I'll call you Sister Liying."
Wang Liying nodded shyly.
A table, two adults, two children, a basket of steamed buns, and a bowl of meat.
The scene before me truly feels like home.
[Accept Wang Liying's nickname and your luck score will increase by 100!]
Just from having a meal, I have so much luck.
It seems he needs to reform the two sisters.
Wang Liying, in particular, needs to show others a different side of herself.
I want to raise her to be fair and tender.
It's simply a matter of taking a good bath, eating a good meal, and getting a good night's sleep.
After finishing his meal, He Hongyang boiled a large pot of water.
They also made the stove in the house warm and cozy.
"Take a shower inside and change into clean clothes."
Saying that, he walked out.
This was their first day together, and he felt comfortable leaving his home in her care.
This is a sign of trust in her, and even more so, a sign of respect for her.
Since he treats her this way, she should treat him even better in the future.
"Don't worry about what you need to do. Leave the house and Rainy Sister to me."
"From now on, let me do all the housework. I will definitely keep the house in perfect order."
[Wang Liying proactively takes on all the housework, her luck level increases by 100!]
[Wang Liying's favorability towards the host has increased significantly, and her luck value has increased by 600!]
He Hongyang was going out hunting.
He wanted to test this level 2 hunting technique to see what it was like.
I ran into Yan Bugui in the front yard.
"Going hunting again?"
Previously, He Hongyang had wanted to supplement his family's income by hunting.
But nine out of ten attempts were unsuccessful.
So every time he went there, Yan Bugui would ask him.
They claimed to be concerned, but they were actually mocking his incompetence.
They used to go and set traps with weapons, but today they're empty-handed.
"You're going hunting like this, without bringing any equipment?"
He's really meddling in other people's business, like a railway policeman.
He Hongyang shook the slingshot in his hand.
"That's all I need."
The handle of this slingshot is made of steel, and the projectiles are steel balls.
It's incredibly easy to use.
We arrived at the foot of the mountain outside the city.
It's winter now, and many prey are out hunting, so if you're skilled enough, prey will come to you.
I had only taken a few steps when I heard a "fluttering" sound from the tree.
A pheasant is perched on a tree branch.
Although the pheasant only weighs four or five pounds, it tastes delicious and has a strong wild flavor.
Not only can you eat meat, but you can also drink soup.
He Hongyang took out his slingshot, closed his left eye, and aimed with his right eye.
Eyes, bullets, pheasants—three points aligned in a line.
Although he hadn't made a move yet, he felt that the pheasant was already within his grasp.
"Search!"
The bullet was fired.
"boom!"
That was both steady and accurate.
"thump!"
The whole pheasant fell down.
It seems my hunting skills have improved considerably compared to before.
Not only did he gain strength in his hands, but his eyes also became very accurate in drawing.
A tiny pheasant is no problem at all.
In the past, after finding them, we would tie them with a rope and hang them around our waist.
Looking up, I saw a chicken coop above.
He climbed up in no time.
One touch.
There were several hot mountain eggs inside.
This is a rare find.
Carefully put it in my pocket and continued walking.
"Crash!"
The fallen leaves on the ground rustled.
I only saw a gray shadow flash by.
It's a hare.
He Hongyang took out his slingshot and pointed it at the figure: "Search!"
Because it was discovered too late, the bullet grazed the rabbit's ear and missed its vital parts.
It was completely bewildered, yet still wanted to keep running forward.
"Whoosh!"
The second bullet came right after.
The hare was filled with a tremendous force.
My legs wanted to run, but my body had already fallen down involuntarily.
Go forward and take a look.
This is a gray hare.
It weighs about seven or eight pounds, has very thick fur (3717), and a plump body (29).
Looks like they'll have meat to eat tonight.
After walking a distance, every sound they heard was met with his bullets.
In just one afternoon.
They caught two pheasants and six rabbits, a very good haul.
Rabbit meat is different from pork belly; it's all lean meat and tastes better with side dishes.
4. Reform the two sisters properly.
Arrived at the farmers' market.
I traded a wild rabbit for salt, soy sauce, scallions, and ginger.
They traded another wild rabbit for a basket of radishes and a basket of potatoes.
These days in the countryside, as long as you're diligent, you can have vegetables to eat.
But meat is something we only eat a few times a year.
Going up the mountain to hunt.
Not only must they be physically strong, but they must also have excellent technique.
This is something that not everyone can do.
The vegetable vendor noticed that he still had quite a few pheasants and rabbits.
"I'll trade you two baskets of cabbages and a wild rabbit."
"No change."
"What about the three baskets?"
"I won't change it."
The vegetable vendor simply said.
"There are five baskets of cabbages left here, you can have them all."
With these five baskets of cabbage, plus the potatoes and radishes from before, it'll be enough for them to eat for a while.
"I can exchange it, but you have to help me transport it home."
The vegetable vendor smiled.
"Young man, you're really shrewd. You're guaranteed to never lose money in business."
"I still have to support my younger sister, so of course I can't do a losing business."
Upon hearing that he not only supported his own sister but also took in two other people, I was immediately struck by the news.
The uncle couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"Well done! You've caught so much game, your hunting skills must be pretty good. But these can only be exchanged for some everyday items. If you could catch a wolf, its pelt would be very valuable."
So you know where the wolves are?
The middle-aged man looked him up and down.
Looking at his young age, does he really dare to fight wolves?
“A wolf came to the mountain in our village and killed many cattle and sheep. This wolf doesn’t eat meat, it only eats the animal’s internal organs. It’s so disgusting.”
"Which village are you from, uncle?"
“I live in Liujia Village, which is 20 miles away from here. Everyone calls me Old Man Liu.”
"I'll come to the village to find you in a couple of days."
When Old Liu heard that he really wanted to go, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Are you really going? If you can drive the wolves away, you'll be a benefactor to our village."
