337 The Last Meal Before Leaving
“Uncle Hua, there’s not much meat here. My father hunted them all, so you don’t have a share,” Xue’er pointed at the pile of skewered roasted meat in front of Xu Qing as she said with a serious expression. She had waited so long for her mother to make roasted meat for them. It wasn’t enough for them to eat, so she refused to share.
Hua Yuncheng was speechless. There was quite a lot of meat here, so it was more than enough even for an additional five to six people, but Xue’er actually felt that it was too little?
Deng Chengxi rolled her eyes at Hua Yuncheng. “How shameless of you to snatch food from a child.”
These words instantly angered Hua Yuncheng. “I didn’t eat your meat, you nosy woman! Hmph, besides, why would I snatch a child’s food? Just wait to see my hunting skills! I can definitely hunt more game than Qiao Yanhui can.”
Then, Hua Yuncheng disappeared. He seemed to be in a hurry to go hunting. Hua Yuncheng was simply worried that there wouldn’t be anything left for him when he returned.
Before Hua Yuncheng returned, Xu Qing already finished roasting the meat. Immediately, the rich aroma of meat wafted out. Many people smelled it and came out of their tents because the smell was too intense. What they had just eaten paled in comparison.
However, when they found out that the aroma came from Qiao Yanhui’s side, everyone had mixed expressions.
It seemed that they had to endure this enticing smell for the entire night! After all, they couldn’t afford to offend Qiao Yanhui.
After Lei Wangshu and her family smelled it, they tidied themselves up and came over to ask for food.
When Xie Pengyang saw Lei Wangshu, he quickly made room for her family without a word. This made Lei Wangshu’s father very satisfied. Although this young man was from humble beginnings, he was smart, kind, and considerate. He was worthy of his daughter!
Xie Pengyang’s eyes lit up when he saw his father-in-law’s satisfied gaze. Then, he hurriedly went to Xu Qing and asked for some roasted meat. Naturally, this attracted a lot of public anger, but Xie Pengyang didn’t care at all and placed the roasted meat in front of Lei Zhangyi.
Xu Qing was speechless when she saw Xie Pengyang’s obsequious expression. What a stark contrast. When she helped him clear his name, she had never seen him so attentive to her. Why was there such a differential treatment? Was he discriminating?
As Lei Wangshu hugged her youngest daughter, she smiled when she saw Xie Pengyang currying favor with her father.
“Lei Zhou, go play with your Yuan’er and the others.” Lei Wangshu saw her son looking at the four children playing together enviously, so she hurriedly encouraged Lei Zhou. Her son was so shy. What should she do about it in the future?
After receiving his mother’s permission, Lei Zhou hurriedly ran over. “Brother Yuan’er, Brother Ting’er, Sister Xue’er, long time no see!”
However, no one paid attention to Lei Zhou.
Xue’er and the others were eating with relish, so they didn’t have the time to greet Lei Zhou.
When Lei Zhou saw that they were ignoring him, he felt a little aggrieved. Could it be that they had forgotten about him?
“It’s so delicious. Brother Lei Zhou, you should eat some too.” Xue’er finally freed her mouth to talk.
Lei Zhou’s eyes lit up and he immediately squeezed into the middle of them. This made Qi Yi unhappy. Where did this guy come from? He actually dared to snatch Yuan’er and the others from him? He immediately moved his butt. In any case, he didn’t want Lei Zhou to have a seat beside them.
Lei Zhou felt that someone was stopping him from sitting down, so he squeezed back. Qi Yi, who had just started practicing martial arts, was actually pushed down by Lei Zhou just like that. Ever since Lei Zhou was called weak by Yuan’er and the others last time, he had also started practicing martial arts with great fervor. His diligence amused Lei Wangshu.
Qi Yi was so angry that his cheeks were puffed up. In the end, he could only sit at the side unhappily, but he had no choice, since his opponent was stronger. Just wait. After he mastered martial arts, he would send this brat flying!
At the same time, Ao Heng also smelled it. He was originally angry at them for not giving him some, but when he was told that the smell was from Qiao Yanhui’s side, his expression instantly darkened.
“Hehe, then let him eat more. Don’t disturb him.” Ao Heng thought that since Qiao Yanhui was about to die, he would treat it as Qiao Yanhui’s last meal.
After Ao Heng fell asleep, Qiao Yanhui brought Xu Qing, who had eaten her fill, out to play. Actually, Qiao Yanhui had discovered a “treasure land”. It was a distance away from the hunting ground, and it was a glowing land.
“What’s going on? You did this? Why is the land glowing? No one has ever discovered this place before?” Xu Qing asked Qiao Yanhui in shock.
