The wicked sister-in-law is in charge; meals include fish and shrimp.

Chapter 175 It’s not me

Wolf Overlord ran over to Wen Luozhi, raised his two front paws in a gesture of respect, and said, "Quickly tell my sister-in-law to make salt-baked chicken! I want to eat salt-baked chicken!"

Wen Luozhi glared at it and said to Li Chunxing, "Sister-in-law, just leave it there. I'll make some chicken porridge."

Hmph! She picked out the best cuts of meat to make porridge for everyone, and used the rest to make poached chicken for this guy.

She's so fat her eyes are practically squinting into slits, and she's still eating salt-baked chicken! She thinks it's so oily it looks like salt-baked chicken!

Wolf Overlord lay sadly on the ground. The pheasant was just the right size for him to eat, but with so many people in his family, he would definitely have to cut off a lot of meat.

It probably won't get much of it!

It was feeling sad when Wen Luozhi squatted down and patted its head, saying, "Don't worry, I won't let you go hungry. I'll make you some fried beef for lunch."

Wolf Overlord immediately stood up excitedly and affectionately rubbed against her leg, "I knew you were the best to me! When I transform into a human, I'll find you ten men!"

As if that wasn't enough, it added, "I'll find you all the good-looking ones!"

Wen Luozhi rolled her eyes. She didn't want so many men; they were just too annoying.

She snatched the pheasant from Li Chunxing's hand and told her to go back to sleep. With a swift stroke, she killed the pheasant.

Wolf Overlord watched eagerly from the side, then tilted his head back and said, "There was someone outside just now, but you didn't notice."

Wen Luozhi paused in plucking the chicken feathers and asked, "Did you see who it was?"

She looked several times but didn't see anyone. She looked when she left and again before she came back in.

"He's hiding behind that tree. He doesn't smell like someone from the village," Wolf Overlord said, sniffing with a smug grin.

Ever since the potatoes were stolen, it took it several nights to memorize the scent of everyone in the village.

It didn't want to do it in the first place. Who would want to sneak into someone's window in the middle of the night to smell their scent?

Wenluozhi said that if anything went missing in the village, it could just go and smell it to find out what was missing. Thinking that this made sense, it agreed to go.

Although that person was quite far away, who was it? It was the noblest and most powerful snow wolf! It was a spirit beast! You could smell it from a distance.

When Xie He took a sip of the chicken porridge at breakfast, he knew the meat was not right; chickens raised at home are not that firm.

"Lolo, you got up early this morning and went up the mountain?" she asked with a stern face.

She had heard noises in the yard a long time ago, then there was silence for a while. Could it be that the girl had sneaked up the mountain during that time?

Wen Luozhi quickly put down her chopsticks, raised her hands in a gesture of surrender, and looked aggrieved. "I'm innocent, Mother! How could they possibly be back and forth so quickly!"

Ever since she dug up two ginseng plants and caused everyone a great deal of worry, she has been unable to go up the mountain freely anymore. Even if she does go, someone has to accompany her, and she can only go a little bit into the mountains at most.

Xie He's expression softened a bit. The important thing is that they didn't go into the mountains. Don't go into the mountains just for a pheasant or a little girl.

"We didn't buy anything when we came back yesterday, where did you get this pheasant?"

Wen Luozhi chuckled, popped a mouthful of chicken porridge into her mouth, and said, "Mom's amazing! She can tell it's pheasant in just one bite."

She told her family about finding a pheasant at the door this morning, and they all found it rather strange.

Upon hearing this, Wen Zixun suddenly remembered someone. He quickly finished the porridge in his bowl, grabbed two steamed buns, and ran out.

"Hey! Xiao Liu! Where are you going?!"

Xie He asked his question as he walked away, but Wen Zixun didn't even turn his head and kept running out.

"This child! Why is he still the same as when he was little!" She stopped caring and just ate and drank as usual.

Wen Zizhong also realized that the pheasant might have been delivered by the beggar-like man yesterday evening.

Everyone is busy harvesting grain in the fields, who would still go to the mountains?

Normally, people would just bring whatever they wanted to deliver to the door; they wouldn't just drop it off and leave like this.

Wen Zixun followed the road and, sure enough, found the same person squatting there where he had cooked potatoes yesterday.

He seemed to be trying to start a fire, but no matter how he drilled into the wood, not a single spark came out, and his hands started to tremble.

Wen Zixun strode over and shoved the two large meat buns in his hands. "You eat first! I'll start a fire for you!"

He took the piece of wood and the small stick, and soon felt the wood getting warm. In no time, the straw used as kindling caught fire.

Lin Feng watched as he slowly started the fire until he buried the remaining potatoes in it.

"Why are you staring at me like that?! These meat buns won't taste good if they get cold!"

Seeing the kettle next to him, he picked it up and saw that there was still about half a kettle of water inside. He then placed the kettle next to the fire so that the potatoes would be cooked soon and the water would be hot to drink.

Lin Feng watched as he finished his work before leisurely munching on the bun in his hand. It wasn't because he didn't want to eat, but because he hadn't had any meat in a long time and wanted to savor it slowly.

What if we can't eat it anymore in the future?

Seeing that he was eating very slowly, Wen Zixun asked, "Did you put that pheasant in front of my house?"

In fact, he already had the answer in his heart: the pheasant was undoubtedly released by this guy.

Because at that moment, a chicken feather was stuck in his messy hair, swaying as he ate his steamed bun, though he himself couldn't see it.

This person is really strange. He was starving yesterday, so why would he put a wild pheasant in front of someone else's door?!

Lin Feng nodded and then shook his head. He had already told himself that he wouldn't eat other people's food for free.

Why did you come back to ask this again? Do you want to return the pheasant?

That won't do! He won't do it even if we give it back.

"No, it wasn't me! I didn't release them! I... how could I possibly be in the mood to catch pheasants like this!"

"Young man, you have a kind heart. Who knows who might have benefited from your kindness!"

He guiltily turned his head away from Wen Zixun, afraid that he would find out he was lying.

Wen Zixun raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking to himself, "If it's not you, then who is it? There's still a chicken feather stuck in your head!"

He didn't say much, and seeing that he had almost finished the bun in his hand, he got up and walked home.

"I'll get you a bowl of porridge!"

Lin Feng looked up at his back upon hearing this, only to see Wen Zixun turn around and say, "This isn't a free meal, you know. That pheasant was a gift from you, and it was quite big!"

He gave Lin Feng a thumbs up; he had never caught one before, even by luck, when he went into the mountains.

I don't know how this guy caught it, but he thinks it's pretty amazing.

Lin Feng smiled, a slight smirk playing on his lips. Was his acting really that bad? He'd actually seen through it.

He's not in the right body to travel right now. He should rest a bit longer and then set up a shed at the foot of the mountain to stay there. He can go back later once he's recovered.

I haven't been able to write to his father for quite some time; he must be worried about me.

Wen Zixun went back and found a large bowl, filled it to the brim with porridge, and added a lot of vegetables on top.

"Sixth Brother, I want to go with you to see this," Wen Luozhi followed behind Wen Zixun like a little tail.

My second brother just told the family about the person he saw yesterday before they came back, and she's going to go see what's going on.

Just as Wolf Overlord had said, the person behind the big tree might very well be him.
