Hot Farmer's Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm

103 Someone’s Here Again

Some people heard that the Liu family had bought a son-in-law and immediately guessed that Li Xiao was him.

When Lin Xiaoyue and him walked further away, they started discussing.

“He seems not bad. He is tall and strong, and he seems skilled at hunting. Hmm, the Liu family has good taste…”

Li Xiao didn’t know about this.

After returning to the Liu family, he handed the prey to Lin Xiaoyue to clean them up. Then he went into the mountains to chop wood.

An hour later, he came back with four bundles of firewood and a pheasant.

Lin Xiaoyue was impressed.

She confirmed that Li Xiao did not transmigrate. He was a native of this era. Well, it was very likely that this was his boss’ previous life.

He was different from her. He didn’t have any special abilities. To be able to catch so much prey with his own ability, he must be very skilled.

When Lin Xiaoyue was done dealing with the prey, Uncle Sun came with the cart that they needed.

She paid the money and was about to send Uncle Sun away when the village chief came with the helpers.

To Lin Xiaoyue’s surprise, the village chief’s eldest son, Li Gengtian, and grandson, Li Laishun, were also here.

After explaining the situation to everyone and confirming the time for work, everyone left.

Everyone sighed. The Liu family had really made it this time. Those who wanted to see them fail were going to be disappointed…

Dinner was ready. Lin Xiaoyue went to the village chief’s house to send a bowl of braised meat and a pheasant to thank him for his help.

He did not refuse. After eating the duck blood curd and meat that Lin Xiaoyue gave him yesterday, he was full of anticipation for today’s dish.

Zhang Shi was also more friendly to Lin Xiaoyue this time, not only because her husband and son were going to help the Liu family, but also because Lin Xiaoyue had sent food over.

The whole Li family, like the Wang family, liked the dishes sent by Lin Xiaoyue very much. Zhang Shi also asked Lin Xiaoyue about the chili.

Lin Xiaoyue told her the same thing she told Aunt Wang. Zhang Shi knew that Lin Xiaoyue did not have much, so she did not ask further.

At night, the Liu family gathered around the table to eat.

Seeing Xiao Qing’s longing look, Lin Xiaoyue finally allowed him to try a few pieces of braised meat.

It would have been better if he didn’t taste it. After tasting it, Xiao Qing almost swallowed his tongue into his stomach.

If his uncle had not glared at him when he picked up the fifth piece, he would not have stopped.

He decided that he would quickly recuperate so he could eat meat again.

That night, the Liu family went to bed early.

In the middle of the night, Lin Xiaoyue was woken up by a soft sound.

Releasing her spiritual power to investigate, Lin Xiaoyue immediately detected that Li Xiao was outside the shed, and he was holding someone.

Realizing that something might have happened, Lin Xiaoyue quickly got out of bed.

Then, she gently opened the door and walked out.

At this time, the insects were chirping non-stop outside. Looking in the direction of the village, it was peaceful.

Lin Xiaoyue walked to the back of the shed.

Just as she turned the corner, Li Xiao quickly reacted.

He subconsciously wanted to attack, but then he recognized that the person was Lin Xiaoyue.

Li Xiao’s killing intent instantly dissipated.

At this time, the legs of the person he was holding were trembling, and his whole body was shaking.

It was too scary. He barely made it and was caught by this man.

He didn’t want to attract more attention, so he didn’t make a sound.

However, he realized that he was no match for this man at all. The man’s gaze just now was so scary, as if he wanted to kill him.
