With her spatial ability to raise beast husbands, the wicked female becomes the darling of the group

Chapter 35 On Guard
Upon hearing this, Hua Linye's expression changed instantly.

The languid, alluring smile on his face vanished, and his gaze suddenly turned cold and stern.

He silently began to work, without saying another word.

His father's death was an untouchable part of his life.

Xiao Jihan sighed softly, said nothing, and continued working.

……

Wen Nanxi stayed with Su Muyao while she worked.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Wen Nanxi helped Su Muyao cure the bacon.

Looking at Wen Nanxi, Su Muyao thought he had a really good temperament, gentle and mild-mannered.

Someone like that can't possibly argue with anyone!

Moreover, it gives people a very comfortable and warm feeling.

Even if he didn't know what she was going to do, he would do it silently as she said so.

Su Muyao explained, "After marinating the bacon, we smoke it. We keep it on the stove and smoke it every time we cook. This way, it can be stored for a long time. During the snowy season, if we want to eat meat, we can just cut the bacon and eat it."

Wen Nanxi paused in her act of adding salt to the pork. "Smoked meat?"

Wen Nanxi knew that meat could be grilled, pressed for oil, boiled, and even marinated, but she had never heard of smoking it.

Her methods of handling food are unique.

Su Muyao nodded and said, "Yes, this way of smoking meat makes the lean meat tender and not dry, and the fatty parts fragrant and delicious."

"It can be used to make fried rice, braised rice, and smoked meat patties, among other things."

She has so many recipes in her mind that she can cook different delicious dishes every day.

She always felt that dumplings cooked over a wood fire smelled especially delicious.

It's better than those high-tech gas generators from the apocalypse.

As she spoke, Su Muyao's eyes shone brightly, filled with anticipation.

Wen Nanxi looked at her gently and listened patiently to what she had to say.

As Su Muyao spoke, she slowly looked at the medicine simmering in the earthenware pot.

After boiling the medicine, she used a cloth to pour it out and let it sit for a while until the temperature was about right. Then, Su Muyao said to Hua Linye, who was busy in the other corner, "Hua Linye, it's time to drink your medicine!"

Su Muyao originally intended to deliver it to him.

But seeing Mei Qingchen beside him, he instinctively wanted to stay away.

So, I still asked Hana Rinya to come and take the medicine.

Hua Linye was silently working, immersed in his memories of his father, when he suddenly heard a voice.

Hua Linye instinctively turned his head toward the sound and saw Su Muyao bathed in moonlight.

Her eyes seemed to be filled with moonlight, and her voice was soft and sweet.

Hua Linye's heart skipped a beat, and a strange emotion welled up inside him.

He put down the stone in his hand and walked over quickly.

"Was my wife just brewing medicine for me?"

Su Muyao nodded and said, "That's right, the medicine for fire poison should be taken twice a day, morning and evening, so that you can recover faster."

"The temperature is just right, drink it quickly!"

Hua Linye looked into her clear eyes, his fingers twitched unconsciously, and he took the bowl of medicine.

Hua Linye couldn't help but ask with concern, "Did you burn your hands just now?"

"No, you should drink it!"

Hua Linye gulped it down very quickly.

After finishing his drink, he looked at her with expectant eyes.

Su Muyao was taken aback when she met his expression.

"what happened?"

Hua Linye raised his fox-like eyes, pursed his lips, and said, "My wife hasn't given me any candy yet."

Su Muyao was stunned.

She almost forgot.

Hua Linye looked sad and aggrieved, and said in a lazy, husky voice, "Sigh, from childhood to adulthood, only my wife has ever given me candy."

Seeing Hua Linye's pitiful appearance, and recalling the image of him as a child she had seen in her mind's eye, Su Muyao felt a rare moment of tenderness. She took out some candy from her spatial storage and handed it to him.

A smile finally appeared on Hua Linye's face.

"I know my wife still cares about me." Su Muyao's lips twitched; she wanted to say that wasn't true at all.

"Cough, take your medicine and go rest first!"

Hua Linye looked at Su Muyao's expression and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

The wife looks quite interesting and cute now.

"My wife's medicine is really effective. I felt much better after taking it this morning."

This wasn't a lie; he genuinely felt his body become lighter and he was no longer affected by the fire poison.

There was no burning pain or sensation like being tormented by fire poison.

He didn't know if it was because his wife had helped him calm his mind yesterday or because of the medicine he took this morning.

In conclusion, the current wife is certainly not a fool.

She seemed shrouded in mystery, carrying secrets that were impossible to fathom.

"As long as it works, that's good enough."

As she spoke, Su Muyao began to prepare the medicine again, intending to brew it for herself.

She also needs to be cured of the poison in her body.

"Whatever my wife needs, I will help her."

At this moment, Hua Linye was clinging to Su Muyao.

If it were before, she would have already snuggled up to him and hugged him.

But when Hua Linye approached, Su Muyao kept her distance from him without making a sound, as if afraid of touching him.

After listening to his words, Su Muyao thought for a moment and said, "Could you help me make some tools for grinding medicine?"

"It's tools like stone mortars and stone mills. I'm thinking of making some medicine packets like insect repellent and hemostatic medicine to sell at the trade market, so I can earn some crystal coins."

Hua Linye looked puzzled and asked, "What does my wife want to do with the crystal coins?"

Don't we have food and supplies on a regular basis?

What else is needed?

Su Muyao said, "With crystal coins, we can buy some everyday items."

There's nothing wrong with talking about this.

Anyway, when we go to the city's trade market to sell things in a few days, we'll need Hua Linye and the others to accompany us for protection.

The road from the tribe to the nearest city is far from peaceful, and danger lurks at any moment.

Moreover, she couldn't rely on them forever. Besides wanting to improve her superpowers, she also needed to earn enough crystal coins.

Hua Linye was silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered that each of them actually had a dowry.

However, everyone's dowry was kept separately, with no intention of giving it to Su Muyao.

It's because she had been really mean to them before.

……

When Mei Qingchen heard this conversation and saw this scene while she was stacking stones, her expression froze for a moment before she revealed an incredulous look.

Fire poison?

The fire poison on Hua Linye's body was incurable, but Su Muyao actually had a solution.

During the day, she said she could cure the poison in her body herself, but he didn't believe her.

Could it be true?

No, how is that possible.

Considering that she can even repair her natal sword, it's possible that she possesses the abilities of a witch doctor.

Mei Qingchen looked at Su Muyao under the moonlight, and his eyes darkened.

However, as if he had thought of something, his beautiful phoenix eyes darkened slightly, and his long eyelashes fluttered slightly, concealing the coldness in his eyes.

In any case, he will be on high alert against her.

Wen Nanxi and the others actually dared to eat the food she made.

When they let their guard down, they don't know when she will drug them again.

A cold, smirk curved his lips as he said to Xiao Jihan, "Su Muyao has come up with another new trick to ask everyone for dowry and crystal coins."

Su Muyao had previously wanted them to hand over all their dowry money.

She squandered all the money and treasures they initially offered on in order to please others.
