“Oh no, where does this wild goat come from?”
Before dawn the next day, the Ling family got up one after another. Before they had finished washing in the bathroom attached to their respective rooms, Song Yang’s exclamation suddenly reached their ears. The family opened the door and went out to see what had happened.
“A wild goat?!”
“Howl~”
Right in front of the door of the central room, a big wild goat was lying there quietly, with a few badly mutilated wounds in the neck. The blood had already coagulated, which looked quite frightening. As the whole family was wondering what was happening, the two cubs appeared from nowhere and howled toward Ling Jingxuan’s feet.
Eyes rolling, his two sharp eyes notice some kind of black hair by their mouths, so Ling Jingxuan squatted down while rubbing them, after quite a while, he pointed at the dead wild goat and asked, “Did you catch it?”
“Howl~”
The two black wolves seemed to understand what he was saying, they howled while wagging their tails at him, as if they were claiming their credit from him. Everyone stared at them. They were so little and could hunt a wild goat? No wonder they hadn’t seen them for the whole last night. Is it possible that they went into the mountains?
“Be good. Go play with Xiaowen and others.”
Different from the others’ surprised reaction, Ling Jingxuan looked a little thoughtful, he patted their heads respectively and stood up, “Gengniu, sister-in-law Song, you handle this wild goat. Later when people of Xinyuan come to fetch the goods, let them take a leg for Shopkeeper Zhang, and one for Mr. Chu. As for the rest of the meat, we’ll keep it to ourselves. Don’t look so surprised. Just use some salt to make it into dried meat. Remember, use a bit more salt.”
Speaking of which, Ling Jingxuan stood up. Yan Shengrui who had nailed his eyes on him all the time quietly followed up. Obtaining such a fat wild goat for free, Ling Chenglong and others all grinned from ear to ear, but none noticed Ling Jingxuan’s strangeness.
“What’s the matter? Worried about the two cubs?”
Catching up with Ling Jingxuan who was running ahead, Yan Shengrui asked with concern.
“No, they originally belong to the forest, so it’s only normal to hunt wild animals in the mountains, it’s just…”
When it came to the critical moment, Ling Jingxuan went silent again and continued after quite a while, “That wild goat is quite big, plus wild goats are famous for being flexible. Even if they are wolves, they are still two cubs. How could they bring it back?”
“So you mean…”
Yan Shengrui instantly understood something. If it hadn’t been those two cubs, it should be someone, no, it should be a much bigger and more fierce beast that helped them. Now he felt extremely terrified when thinking of this. Forget about how those the cubs met it and let it willingly help them catch it, only the current safety issue of the manor would be enough for them to be worried. One should know, on the side that sat against the Yuehua Mountain, they hadn’t taken any protective measures. If some wild beast really came out from deep in the mountain…
“Hmm, it’s like what you are thinking. But seen from the current situation, we should be safe.”
Nodding, Ling Jingxuan felt not so worried about their safety. Since that beast was willing to carry that black wild goat back for Dahei and Xiaohei and didn’t disturb them, it should be non-offensive to them. Now he was worried that other beasts might follow their taste and enter the manor. Although he had given each of them some knockout drops, he should still stay alert. Besides, he got the little buns at home.
“Let’s get up at night and see what would happen. The beasts in the mountains are mostly intelligent. Perhaps we can communicate with them as well as with the cubs?”
Yan Shengrui knew what he was worried about, but now everything was only their speculation. As for how things would be, they could only verify it after they saw it with their own eyes.
“That’s the only way.”
The two people’s dialogue came to an end for now. No one knew what worried them, and all were trying to welcome a new day with a good mood. After breakfast and sending the two buns to school, the Zhao&Han couple was also here. Except Ling Jinghan, this time all men went into the mountains, including Song Shuisheng who had always stayed at home to serve Ling Jinghan.
After handling the wild goat in the morning and sending the two legs to the ones Ling Jingxuan told her to send, taking advantage that all men went out into the mountain, Lady Yang neatly processed the offal, threw them into the brine as Ling Jingxuan taught her, she put the two left two salted legs into a basket and planned to hang it inside the well. On the way to the front yard carrying the basket, she noticed that Ling Chenghu and his wife were peeping outside with her split vision. Without even thinking, Lady Yang walked over and told them to walk way, in case they might disturb Lady Wang who was stitching shoe soles with Song Shuiling in the room.
“What is with your attitude? You are just a maid. I am your master’s younger brother!”
Having been proud all those years, even if the old xiucai was over the hill, now seeing that even a maid dare to use such a tone to talk to him, Ling Chenghu instantly got mad at her. As he saw those goat legs in the basket, he couldn’t help swallowing some saliva. Thinking of their own days, and now his second elder brother’s, Ling Chenghu only felt his jealousy had instantly reached the highest point. And look at their big house! Even through the whole town, no one would be more extravagant than this! And now they even bought some servants and maids. They were brothers. How could his second elder brother could live such a good life while they could only be exploited?
“It’s true that I am only a maid. But my job is to obey the master’s order. Master Sheng ordered that we’d beat you every time we see someone from your family!”
Wearing a fake smile, Lady Yang wasn’t a pushover. Before when Master Xuan had been so poor, why hadn’t they ever thought of lending him a hand? When the Master’s mother had the miscarriage, had they ever thought they were brothers? More than that, they even added insult to the injury. Now that the Master finally lived a good life, they came? How could there be such a good thing under the sun?
You weren’t there with them when they were suffering, now you don’t deserve it while they are enjoying honor and distinction. People of old Ling family try to use that little blood relation trying to gain some benefit. Not possible!
