Chapter 35: Family Disputes

When Shen Musheng, who was carrying the prey on his back, approached a wooden house at the foot of the mountain, the little hunter was squatting by the stream flowing in front of the wooden house to deal with a pheasant he had hit, and there was a clay pot at his feet, planning to go back to boil soup directly with the stream water in a while.

The sound of the murmuring of the stream overshadowed Shen Musheng's footsteps, but the little hunter's hearing was good, and when his ears moved, he knew that someone was coming, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Shen Musheng, and his indifferent face flashed a little surprise that ordinary people were not aware of.

The young little Orion stood up, and he couldn't speak, and he gestured to Shen Musheng as a greeting.

Shen Musheng crossed a small bridge set up by Xiao Orion himself and walked to his side, and when he saw a clay pot at his feet, he couldn't help but smile, "Ah Shu, are you busy?" I'm here to bring you something. ”

As he spoke, Shen Musheng unloaded the big basket on his back, bent down to take out the pheasant and hare from inside, and took out the little wolf cub lying inside and put it on the grass on the side, silently sweating.

This little wolf cub was called all the way, and it was very unwilling to be 'abandoned' by Shen Shuang, but because it was unable to resist, it could only rely on howling to protest.

The little hunter saw the little wolf cub in Shen Musheng's hand and the two prey on the ground, and he also knew about it, he picked up the pot and walked to Shen Musheng, who had already unloaded most of the things in the back basket, and asked him with his eyes what this meant.

Shen Musheng looked up to this young man very much in his heart, he didn't believe the rhetoric that the villagers said that he was unlucky, but patted him on the shoulder affectionately, and said with gratitude in his tone, "Ah Shu, what happened on the mountain today, Xiaoshan's mother has already told me." Thanks to your help, the two siblings didn't get lost in the woods, and Uncle Mu Sheng is here to thank you. ”

"This is the prey you fell, and I sent it back to you. As for these mushrooms, fungus and fruits, Xiaoshuang said that she would give them to you, you are going to cook pheasant soup tonight, and throw some wild mushrooms into it to taste fresher. ”

The little hunter naturally shirked and waved his hand to signal that he didn't want these prey, but Shen Musheng, an honest man, didn't think about taking advantage of him at all, so he picked up his big back basket and left quickly, and before the little hunter could react, he ran across the small wooden bridge.

At this time, the abandoned little wolf cub screamed miserably, which also stopped the two men who were running and catching up.

The little wolf cub didn't know how to walk yet, but at this moment, it actually bit the little Orion's trouser leg with its toothless mouth, and it seemed to want to follow Shen Musheng back.

Only then did Shen Musheng remember his daughter Shen Shuang's instructions, and he muttered for a while before he spoke across the stream and the little hunter, "Ah Shu, can you take care of that little thing for a while?" ”

In fact, Shen Musheng knew that his daughter liked that little thing, but he knew the situation at home, and it was impossible to feed the animals with food at all.

The little wolf cub picked up the little wolf cub, and remembered the fat girl he met when he was on the mountain and nodded without much thought, and the little wolf cub in his arms showed his 'wolf nature' at this time, and he was very fierce, but after the little hunter saw Shen Musheng leave, he went into the house and threw it into a small back basket and no longer cared about it.

He looked at the pheasants and hares lying on the ground, and it took a long time to carry them into the house, and when he turned to come out, he had a dustpan in his hand, and bent down to put into it all the mushrooms and fungus and fresh wild fruits that were lying on the ground.

He often walks in some deep forests where no villagers dare to go, and sees more prey, mushrooms and wild vegetables, but because he doesn't know how to distinguish whether the wild mushrooms on the mountain are poisonous or not, he never picks mushrooms, and occasionally sees familiar wild vegetables in no man's land, but he will pick a handful and come back to drink in the soup.

The old hunter had opened up a vegetable field behind the house to grow vegetables, but since his death, the little hunter who could not handle the vegetables could only let the vegetable field be deserted, and he liked it very much when he saw such fresh mushrooms.

After nightfall, the area around the wooden house was quiet, and the little wolf cubs who were thrown into the small basket and couldn't climb out didn't take long to quiet down.

Little Orion sat in front of the small stove and listened to the crackling of the firewood in front of him, the smell of the pheasant and mushroom soup stewed in the stove reminded him of the smell of roasting rabbits by the brook today.

He suddenly remembered the little wolf cub that he had left in the basket, and turned around to grab the little thing that had become a little bit of a slumber, and it knew that it would not be able to return to Shen Shuang's side for the time being, and it would no longer make trouble, but obediently crouched at the feet of the little hunter.

When the little Orion spooned the chicken soup and drank it, he remembered that the little wolf cub should have been hungry after not eating for a day, but there was nothing else at home, so he also put a little chicken soup in front of it.

The little wolf cub didn't seem to dislike it, licking and drinking with his tongue, and one person and one little wolf cub looked surprisingly harmonious against the backdrop of the firelight.

……

Shen Shuang smelled the smell of mushroom soup, it was simply refreshing, the whole kitchen was full of fragrance, although there was no meat, but this meal really took a lot of thought.

Suddenly, outside the courtyard, the sound of her grandfather Shen coming home from the ground, and the next second, her grandmother Wan sharply asked her father Shen Musheng why he didn't come back.

Shen Shuang and Xu, who was frying fungus, glanced at each other, and they both saw worry in each other's eyes, but she was not afraid, but worried that her father and mother would be hurt when the trouble would go on endlessly.

At this time, Wan's crying voice suddenly sounded outside the courtyard, "My fat hare and pheasant are gone like this, how can the old Shen family have such two losers, and give the prey to others in vain." ”

The corners of Shen Shuang's mouth couldn't help twitching, this old lady was really good at making trouble, she didn't even see the prey but she could also possess it verbally, it was really a good skill.

Inevitably, her mother was implicated in a 'mistakenly injured', and Shen Shuang couldn't help but instruct her mother, "Mother, if grandma asks about the prey in a while, let me explain it, and you can listen to it." Rest assured, you'll be fine. ”

Xu Shi inexplicably believed his daughter, so he also nodded, but he was very nervous in his heart.

The two of them had just finished speaking, but Shen Shuang saw her grandmother Wan suddenly running into the kitchen, and without saying a word, she grabbed her mother's hair and dragged her out, as if she wanted to tear off Xu's scalp.

Shen Shuang hurriedly dropped the burning stick and ran out, reaching out and pinching a piece of flesh on her arm when Wan Shi had just stepped out of the threshold, Wan Shi screamed in pain before letting go of the hand that was holding Xu's hair.

"Mother, are you okay?" Shen Shuang hurriedly held the released Xu, but saw that her pulled hair and scalp were oozing blood, and she was angry.

Wan Shi was so cold that tears were about to flow out of her eyes, and when she saw that it was Shen Shuang who pinched herself, she was so angry that she scolded Xu, "You are a dead star, immediately take your dumb son and fat pig daughter to get out of the old Shen family." ”

Old man Shen looked confused, not knowing why his old wife was making a fuss again, "What's wrong with you old woman?" What's the fuss? ”

Shen Shuang didn't wait for Wan Shi to open his mouth, and wiped the tears that didn't exist at all, "Master, grandma, she said that my mother hid the prey and beat my mother, but we really didn't hide it." ”

Although Old Man Shen is also a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, she has to pretend to be pitiful.

Wan Shi didn't expect Shen Shuang to pretend to be pitiful, the pheasants and hares in her mouth flew like this, she was so angry that her heart twitched, and she still had a taste in her mouth because she gnawed! How could she be willing to just give up?

"You little slut dare to pretend to be pitiful? A thing with a bad stomach, there is prey that doesn't think about us, and wants to eat and live in our old Shen family, you'd better get out of me. ”

Old man Shen grabbed the key words and asked Wan, "Where did the prey come from?" ”

Coincidentally, Shen Tusheng, who had come back from the town, was walking to the door, and when he saw the people standing in the courtyard, he didn't feel anything abnormal, but asked very happily, "Daddy, I heard that our family eats hares and pheasants tonight?" ”

Old man Shen was even more confused when he heard his second son's words, and Wan Shi scolded and spoke, "How can there be hares and pheasants?" Let these mourning stars go back, and the boss will come back to see after a while, and I won't let him divorce you loser. ”

Xu Shi was so frightened that he almost didn't kneel, and was about to speak with tears streaming down his face, but was stopped by Shen Shuang.

She was tall, looked up at the two old men in front of her, and said lightly, "Milk, when did you see the pheasants and hares in our house?" ”

"You fat pig, you still dare to speak, see if I don't ...... you tomorrow"

Thinking that the matter of showing Shen Shuangxiang tomorrow had not yet been completed, in order to avoid any accidents, Wan's eyes rolled and he changed his words in time, "You get away for me, I haven't settled accounts with you about you and that little Orion drilling in the grass." ”

It's a pheasant and a hare and a little hunter, and the old man Shen didn't have a clue and got angry directly, "Little hunter? Why is it involved with the little Orion again? What the hell is going on? ”

Shen Tusheng, who was on the side, was a little disappointed when he heard that there were no hares and pheasants at home, but when he heard his father's question, he quickly stood up and brushed up his sense of existence, talking about the gossip he heard when he first entered the village.

"Dad, as soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I heard the mother-in-law of the Han family say that the little Orion's unlucky seed and the eldest brother's Xiaoshuang were drilling grass in the mountains, and that the little Orion gave her a hare and pheasant, I thought our family really had meat to eat, it turned out to be fake, alas."

Old man Shen frowned tightly when he heard this, and looked at his fat granddaughter with disgust, he naturally cared about the old Shen family and his face, if the village spread this matter to everyone, wouldn't the old Shen family be embarrassed because of her?

The joke made a few days ago has not passed, this time it was actually related to the unlucky little hunter, the more the old man Shen thought about it, the more angry he became, he swept over the eldest daughter-in-law and eldest granddaughter standing in front of him with a slightly angry look, and spoke quite majestically.

"What the hell is going on, old man? Didn't you take Xiaoshuang up the mountain in the morning to collect firewood? How did it come to be rumored to go to the mountains to drill in the grass? How will the old Shen family be a person in the village in the future? ”

The Xu family has always had no idea, but he can't listen to others slandering his daughter, and he can't care about Wan's wanting to let his man take a break from his business, so he hurriedly came out and hurriedly clarified, "Daddy, this is nothing!" Xiaoshuang and Xiaoshan were just lost in the mountains and were led out by the little hunters. Second brother, where did you hear this, you can't slander Xiaoshuang like this. ”
