Chapter 87 This Night is So Long

“It hit!?”

An Wenjing jumped up excitedly, pulling Chen Hui's arm and asked.

"It probably didn't hit the vital parts, so it ran away." Chen Hui spread his hands.

The hit rate is acceptable, but unfortunately the power of the stone is a little weak. Unless it hits the forehead, it is difficult to leave it on the spot.

"Brother Chen Hui, do you think this is a fox, a jackal, or a weasel?"

Everyone in the village has caught these things.

The chickens, ducks and even lambs raised in the village have been bitten to death or injured several times, so most families have given up their simple chicken coops and built earthen houses specifically for raising chickens.

"I think it's a jackal. Let's observe it again tomorrow morning and set a trap with two clips at the back."

"If it dares to come again, we will have meat to eat."

"This little muntjac is really a fortune-maker. It was sold right after it was caught, and it also brought new prey."

Chen Hui patted the dirt in his hands and said with a smile.

"Set a trap? How will we have time tomorrow?"

"Besides, the jackal should be able to jump quite well, right? Will it jump out?" An Wenjing asked, looking up.

"Silly wife, there are more traps than just digging a hole. Anyway, just watch me do it tomorrow."

"Let's go, the rice in the pot should be hot."

Chen Hui smiled and touched An Wenjing's little face, then took her into the house.

After fixing the door, he used the broom and the stick to prop it up again.

"It's late at night, Wen Yi must be asleep." An Wenjing couldn't help laughing.

Chen Hui also felt that he was exaggerating a bit. Since it was done, he didn't take it apart.

The two went into the kitchen and started preparing dinner.

An Wenjing brought the soup in the pot to the table and noticed a small bowl on the table with a piece of paper underneath the bowl.

"Brother Chen Hui, what is this?"

"Huh? What?"

Chen Hui picked up the paper and looked at it. On the paper was a picture of a round head with pigtails and a rather sloppy smile.

"My aunt doesn't know many words, except for the names of the family members, and only knows one yuan, two yuan, and one or two yuan."

"The one drawn here should be you, right?"

Chen Hui said as he put the thing to his nose and smelled it.

The brown liquid had a faint herbal smell and some sweetness, which was not unpleasant.

"Then this was given to me by my aunt?"

An Wenjing leaned over and took a sip, "It tastes quite good."

"Don't drink it. I don't know what it is."

"Based on my understanding of my aunt, this thing is not a pain reliever, but a folk remedy for having two babies in three years."

Chen Hui took the bowl from An Wenjing's hand and put it on the table, then took the food out of the pot and turned around.

An Wenjing drank up the medicine in the small bowl.

"Uh, didn't you say not to drink it? I don't even know what this is." Chen Hui was a little helpless.

"I'm thirsty, this cool thing is just right for me."

"No matter if it's for pain relief or for having two babies in three years, my aunt won't harm me anyway."

An Wenjing grinned and took out two large bowls of rice.

He leaned forward and took a deep breath, "This rice without sweet potato rice smells delicious."

"You are so heartless. I'm afraid of being sold out when I go out." Chen Hui said with a smile and took the chopsticks and spoon.

"I don't do this to anyone else, I only do this to you."

"They are all your relatives. Even if you love them, you won't treat me badly."

After An Wenjing finished speaking, she started eating with a smile.

"Then remember to stay away from my uncle. He doesn't love me as his nephew, and he doesn't like you as his niece either."

"Fortunately, our family has a good tradition. Except for this uncle, everyone else is very nice." Chen Hui reminded and picked up a piece of pork leg for An Wenjing.

He also lowered his head and started eating.

"I saw that uncle was very unhappy when he left today. Will he not return the land to us next year?"

An Wenjing was chewing her rice, looking a little anxious.

"Do not worry."

"This matter was decided in front of the village chief today. He still wants to live in the village, so he won't ignore the village chief's face."

"If he plants seeds in the ground again next year, no matter what he plants, I will dig it up for him."

"Eat quickly, this is delicious."

Chen Hui also picked up some dried bamboo shoots fried with pork belly for An Wenjing.

Compared to boiling it in water and then mixing it with some oil, this one with rich fat tastes much better, and only wedding banquets would spend so much money on it.

"Really? I didn't get to eat it this afternoon because it was placed far away."

An Wenjing smiled and finished her meal in big mouthfuls.

The two of them washed the chopsticks together and put everything away.

After washing her face and brushing her teeth, An Wenjing felt a little sleepy. She yawned and said vaguely, "I woke up before dawn this morning, and didn't sleep for long in the afternoon."

"I also did strenuous exercise!" Chen Hui wiped his face with a towel and added with a smirk.

"You are the one doing strenuous exercise, but I am fine."

"Brother Chen Hui, are you tired? You should have no energy left, right? Then I can finally have a good sleep."

After An Wenjing finished her witty remarks, she turned around and was about to run.

Chen Hui grabbed her wrist and pulled her back, then hugged her tightly and lifted her up sideways.

"How can I be without energy? As long as I have energy, I will be strong."

"I'm afraid you didn't get any sleep tonight."

Chen Hui said this, holding An Wenjing and strode back to the room.

On a quiet country night, in the dark little room, An Wenjing's humming sounds could be heard intermittently.

It didn't completely stop until dawn.

By the time An Wenjing opened her eyes weakly, the sun was already shining on the hall outside.

She pulled Chen Hui's arm under her neck and leaned against his chest.

The delicate arms were wrapped around the waist and embraced.

"Did you sleep well tonight?"

Chen Hui kissed her lightly on the forehead and did nothing else.

He was also tired after a night of fierce fighting and had no energy left.

"This night is so long!" An Wenjing said with a satisfied smile.

In addition to people, she felt that her heart was also filled.

A new life is about to begin, and this beginning is a happy one.

"Sleep a little longer, we'll go to my aunt's house later."

Chen Hui pulled the thin blanket over and covered An Wenjing's exposed back.

"It's already very late. If we rush to arrive at dinner time, our aunt will laugh at us." An Wenjing said as she pushed Chen Hui.

Although we know each other well, I still feel embarrassed to change clothes in front of her.

"Can you get up now? Or should you rest for a while?" Chen Hui asked with a smile.

"The herbal soup left by my aunt seems to be good. I only feel a little pain left." An Wenjing nodded.

Chen Hui nodded, changed his clothes and left the room.

An Wenjing waited patiently for a few minutes before getting up, finding another set of new clothes, and putting them on to go out.

Seeing Chen Hui packing up the net bag and gloves he had bought earlier, he walked up to him and asked, "Brother Chen Hui, are you ready to go to the sea?"

"Well, I want to go to the sea this afternoon."
