When He Dahu heard this, he also looked towards the door. When he saw He Yufeng standing outside the courtyard, he also rushed over.
He Yufeng threw the wild boar on his shoulder into the courtyard and squatted down to pick up the two brothers.
Su Li stood in front of the central room and looked at the man carrying the children in the courtyard.
He had handsome eyebrows that flew diagonally, slender and sharp black eyes, thin and slightly pursed lips, and an angular outline. His tall and slender figure was not rugged, he was like an eagle in the night.
His clothes were still stained with blood. It was unknown if it was his or the wild boar on the ground. At that moment, he looked at He Dahu and his brother with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
Suddenly, his gaze turned to Su Li. Their eyes met, but Su Li did not look away. She just looked into He Yufeng's eyes.
He Yufeng frowned and looked away. Su Li gave him a strange feeling today.
She was still the same person, but he kept feeling that Su Li had changed. However, this had nothing to do with him. As long as she didn't abuse the two children, anything was fine.
"Daddy, you're so awesome! You even caught such a big wild boar back." He Erhu looked at He Yufeng with admiration.
Su Li looked at the wild boar in the courtyard. She had to admit that He Yufeng was indeed a good hunter. With this wild boar, they could buy a lot of things for the house.
He Yufeng put the two little guys down.
He Erhu pouted unhappily.
He Yufeng explained, "My body is dirty. You just washed yours. Don't dirty your clothes."
Su Li rolled her eyes. He had already hugged them. Wasn't what he said meaningless?
He Dahu and He Erhu flattered He Yufeng.
"Daddy isn't dirty at all. You still smell fragrant."
"Father still has the smell of heroism and invincibility on you. I like it so much."
Su Li pursed her lips in disdain. Not wanting to see them flatter him, she turned around and went to the kitchen to make dinner.
He Yufeng was dealing with the wild boar in the courtyard. Su Li could tell from his practiced movements that he often did these things.
Su Li said to He Yufeng, "Cut off a piece of meat for me. There's no more vegetables at home. The children are still growing and they can't not eat meat!"
With her quick-wittedness, it was definitely not wrong to use the child as an excuse!
He Yufeng did not stop after hearing her words, but he still cut a piece of meat and threw it to her.
There was meat to eat tonight, and it was wild boar meat. Su Li happily brought the meat back to the kitchen.
He Dahu and He Erhu stared at the meat in Su Li's hand. They had already tasted her cooking at noon and could not help but look forward to it.
Su Li looked at the wild boar meat and was a little worried. It was said that a clever woman could not cook without rice. Now that she had the meat, there were no other ingredients at home other than oil and salt. The wild boar meat itself had a fishy smell. If she did not remove the fishy taste of the meat, it would not be good.
She remembered that Chen Xiang's house seemed to have planted ginger. Why doesn't she borrow some ginger?
Just as Su Li had this thought, she heard Chen Xiang's voice outside the door.
"Is Sister Su Li at home?"
Chen Xiang looked at He Yufeng, who was handling the wild boar with a knife, and felt a little afraid. The wife was scary but the husband was scarier.
"What's wrong?" He Yufeng asked.
Chen Xiang raised the egg in her hand and said, "Um, I'm here to send some eggs to Sister Su Li."
He Yufeng looked at the eggs in Chen Xiang's hand and frowned. He thought that it was most likely Su Li who had gone to bully others again. No matter how many times he had told her not to do it, she would not change.
"Take the eggs back. If she goes again in the future, chase her out with a broom. If it really doesn't work, come over and tell me."
The corners of Chen Xiang's mouth twitched. What was the use of telling him? He was still under Su Li's control!
He Yufeng could tell what Chen Xiang was thinking, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face. Every time he mentioned Su Li, she would use the children to threaten him. The two children were his weakness, which was why Su Li was able to catch hold of something and had full control over him!
When Su Li walked out of the house, she saw an awkward scene in the courtyard.
Chen Xiang heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Su Li come out. Compared to Su Li, He Yufeng made her even more breathless!
"Sister, I'm here to give you eggs. Thank you for helping me this morning!"
Su Li waved her hand. "It's just a matter of convenience. Take the eggs back. I remember that your family planted some ginger. If you want to thank me, why don't you lend me some ginger?"
He Yufeng glanced at Su Li. To think that he thought that she had changed. He didn't expect her to still be the same. Indeed, a dog can't change its spots.
Chen Xiang was stunned for a moment. She did not expect Su Li to reject her eggs. When she heard that Su Li wanted ginger, she hurriedly said,
"Alright, go to the vegetable garden and get as much as you want!"
After saying that, she regretted it again. If there was once, there would be a second time. If she asked Su Li to pluck ginger in the vegetable garden today, what if Su Li went to her vegetable garden to pick vegetables tomorrow?
According to Su Li's personality, she would not stop until all the vegetables in the vegetable garden were picked!
Chen Xiang wanted to slap herself. She did stupid things all day long.
"Thank you, Sister!"
Su Li thanked Chen Xiang and walked towards Chen Xiang's vegetable garden with ease.
Chen Xiang bit her lip and left the eggs in the kitchen. Although Su Li said that she didn't want them, she couldn't really not give them to her. It would be troublesome if Su Li remembered about it and came to look for her another day.
Su Li stir-fried the cockscomb and wild boar meat together. After a while, the fragrance wafted out.
"It smells so good!" He Erhu sniffed.
Although He Dahu didn't say anything, he swallowed his saliva.
There was no rice at home, so Su Li baked pancakes at night. She tried to replace sesame seeds with cockscomb seeds and placed them in the pancakes. They tasted no different from sesame seeds.
"It's time to eat!" Su Li placed the food on the table and shouted at the father and sons in the courtyard.
He Dahu and He Erhu couldn't wait any longer. When they heard Su Li call them to eat, they consciously went to wash their hands because they would be beaten up if they didn't wash their hands!
Su Li walked out with a bowl of meat.
He Dahu and He Erhu glanced at her carefully.
"It's time to eat. What is she doing?"
"She has a bowl in her hand. I think it's filled with meat. Could she be eating alone behind our backs?"
The brothers' expressions changed. This was very likely. After all, Su Li was not a selfless person!
He Yufeng looked at the brothers who were whispering to each other and said, "Wash your hands and eat. Don't interfere in other people's business."
If Su Li heard He Dahu and He Erhu discussing her behind her back, who knew what she would do?
"Okay." The brothers nodded obediently.
Su Li looked at Chen Xiang's tightly shut courtyard door and knocked on her door with the bowl of meat.
"Who is it?" Chen Xiang was cooking in the kitchen.
"It's me," Su Li said.
"Ouch!" Chen Xiang heard Su Li's voice being scalded by the pot. Then, she hurriedly started to hide the stir-fried vegetables.
Fortunately, she had the foresight to close the courtyard door every time she cooked.
Chen Xiang tidied her hair before opening the door. "Sister, what's the matter?"
