Chapter 541 Three Little Squirrels
After playing with the little squirrel for a while, Cheng Min said with a smile, "There are only three little gray dogs in total. How are we going to divide them up? What are your plans as the eldest brother?"
Chang Kun smiled wryly and spread his hands: "There are four younger sisters in the family, plus you, and maybe the eldest sister also wants one, plus Hongxia and Zixia... you can count how many that is. If we keep that many, the yard will turn into a zoo."
"That's true. In the yard, the little donkey takes up one corner, the fish pond takes up another corner, and these greyhounds are occupying the big tree in the middle of the yard. Fortunately, they are not too noisy."
"Let's go to the woods on the opposite hill and see if we can catch a few more for dinner tonight."
Xiuer, holding the little squirrel in her tiny hands, hopped and skipped excitedly, shouting, "Big brother, I've named the little gray dog! From now on, it'll be called 'Burden'!"
A burden?
Chang Kun looked at the little squirrel in Xiu'er's hand. Sure enough, with its tiny body and a fluffy big tail, it really looked like a burden!
"Little burden, from now on I am your master. You can only listen to me and eat what I feed you, understand?"
Before even getting home, Xiuer had already decided which squirrel belonged to her.
Hearing Xiuer name the little squirrel, Cheng Min couldn't help but want to try it herself.
"How about I call this one 'Meatball'?"
Of the three little squirrels, the one in Cheng Min's hand is the fattest, with a round body that feels soft and fluffy to the touch.
"Hehe! Sister Xiaomin, this really looks like a meatball!"
Looking at the one he had left, Chang Kun picked it up and examined it closely. "Then you'll be called Coal Ball! Because you're the darkest!"
The three of them laughed and chatted as they headed towards the opposite hilltop. The squirrels in the forest had scattered in fright after Chang Kun shot the giant snake.
"Big brother, how about... we don't fight those greyhounds anymore? These little guys have lost their parents, they're so pitiful!"
It's really rare; Xiuer, who usually has the biggest craving, doesn't want to eat her favorite roasted squirrel.
Cheng Min also chimed in, "That's right, we're not short of meat. Look how cute the meatballs are. They've lost their parents, how pitiful they are!"
"Haha, you can be Meatball's mother!" Chang Kun laughed and ran away.
Women are such a hassle; they soften their hearts when they see something cute.
Squirrel meat is fragrant and tender; how could I give up such a delicacy just because I'm soft-hearted?
"You're the one who's acting as the father of meatballs!"
Cheng Min persisted and ran up to Chang Kun to play around.
Xiuer followed closely behind, shouting, "Big brother, I won't eat Greyhounds tonight! Big brother, please don't hit them..."
Fearing that Xiu'er might fall while running, Chang Kun stopped and took the little squirrel from her hand.
"The greyhound will be grilling something delicious tonight, so don't you two get greedy!"
"Hmph! I won't be greedy. I'll never eat greyhounds again!"
"My parents, who eat meatballs, just thinking about it makes me unable to bring myself to eat them!"
"Alright! You said it yourself!" Chang Kun continued walking towards the opposite mountain forest without stopping.
"It's not worth killing the big one just to eat a greyhound. The little one won't survive either." Cheng Min stepped forward and put her arm around Chang Kun's shoulder, trying to persuade him further.
"The greyhounds I hunted were all those that hadn't given birth yet. Since you don't want to eat them, you can save the rest for me." Whether in the past or now, Chang Kun has only hunted squirrels when he senses that there are no baby squirrels in the forest.
Are they all squirrels that haven't had babies yet? That's more like it. As long as no baby squirrels die because of her, Cheng Min can get over it in her heart.
I just don't know how Chang Kun can tell whether a squirrel has given birth to offspring.
As if guessing Cheng Min's thoughts, Chang Kun asked in a low voice, "You want to know how to tell if a squirrel has given birth?"
Cheng Min nodded.
"Remember, squirrels that have given birth are a little different; they walk like this..."
He mimicked Cheng Min's unwell gait after her wedding night, limping and carefully moving his feet.
Cheng Min had originally intended to seriously learn some knowledge about identifying squirrels, but little did she know that this was just another of Chang Kun's tricks to tease her.
When Cheng Min realized what was happening, her face flushed red, and she waved her little fists, pounding Chang Kun's back repeatedly.
"You dare laugh at me! I'll beat you to death!"
"Haha, put in a little more effort! Didn't you eat enough this morning?"
Chang Kun ran forward with a smile, Cheng Min followed closely behind, and Xiu'er followed at the very back like a little shadow, shouting and yelling.
"Let's beat up the big brother, hahaha, let's beat up the big brother..."
Once we reached the edge of the forest on the other side, we found that there were indeed quite a few squirrels there.
After catching his breath, Chang Kun handed the three squirrel cubs to Cheng Min and Xiu'er.
"You guys wait here, I'll go in and catch a few greyhounds, then we'll go home." This was to prevent them from disturbing the squirrels if they went in.
After running all the way, Cheng Min and Xiu'er were panting heavily, and sweat was beading on their foreheads.
"You dare laugh at me? Just wait... I won't let you get away with this when we get home!" Cheng Min still felt embarrassed by Chang Kun's imitation of her walking style, but thankfully Xiao Xiu'er didn't understand anything.
"You won't let me off the hook? Fine, let's see who begs for mercy first tonight!"
Chang Kun entered the forest with a grin.
There were quite a few squirrels here, and he only had nine chances left for the One-Hit Kill skill today. He held his breath, leaned gently against a tree trunk, and squinted at the squirrels darting around in the tree.
Even without using the one-hit-kill skill, the pebbles shot from the slingshot still hit the squirrel's body. Unfortunately, they only hit the squirrel's body.
"squeak--!"
With a scream, the squirrel fell to the ground.
The screams startled the other squirrels in the forest, and like a pot boiling over, the squirrels in the trees scattered and fled.
Chang Kun acted decisively, immediately using his sure-hit skill.
The slingshots whizzed through the air, and squirrels fell to the ground, kicking up clumps of leaves.
I picked up the squirrels from the ground and counted them. There were exactly ten. Adding the two that the giant snake had strangled to death earlier, there were twelve in total, enough for the whole family to have a delicious meal.
"Big brother, how many greyhounds did you kill?"
"We caught several, but none of them were for you. Didn't you just say you'd never eat greyhounds again?"
"Hmph! Fine, I won't eat it then!" Xiu'er pouted, turning her head to gently stroke the squirrel cub's tail. "I don't care. What if the little brat smells the greyhound meat and won't play with me anymore? What then!"
"Alright, my Xiuer is the most ambitious..." Chang Kun put the squirrel into the bag, patted it gently, and said, "I'll roast it for Xiao Qing and the others tonight!"
"Bad brother! I'm never playing with you again!" Xiu'er pouted and whispered in the burden's ear, "Big brother wants to eat your parents, we won't play with him anymore!"
"Let's go, down the mountain." According to the plan, Chang Kun also planned to find a small river, catch some fish and raise them in a fishpond.
……
At the same time, Lü Jiawei and Qin Meiru bid each other a reluctant farewell.
The two strolled and chatted all morning, with Lü Jiawei completely forgetting about the Qin family's increase in the bride price, assuming it was just Qin Meiru's mother acting irrationally.
"Brother Lü, I'm going back..."
Don't worry, I'll do my best when I meet your colleagues tomorrow and won't embarrass you.
