The Hunter's Lucky Little Lady

Chapter 147

147 Two Comparisons

“It’s probably going to rain for the entire night. Whether it can clear up tomorrow is a problem! Hurry up and come in to start a fire! Take off your clothes and roast them!” Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran and beckoned her in.

As he spoke, Luo Cheng took out the clothes from the leather bag.

Li Xiaoran happened to take off the shirt Luo Cheng had given her. When she squatted down to start a fire, she felt a shirt covering her body.

“Change into this first. Don’t catch a cold!” Luo Cheng said with concern.

Li Xiaoran nodded and smiled at Luo Cheng. She put on the clothes and continued to light the fire.

Soon, the fire burned and the entire house brightened.

Li Xiaoran thought of something and looked around.

“It’s windy and rainy outside. I actually don’t feel any wind when I’m sitting in the stone house.”

“The construction of this stone house is very special. It’s very well-ventilated and warm. When I repaired it previously, I only saw some damage to the roof. Everything else is fine!” Luo Cheng brought a clean pot over and then placed an iron tripod on the fire.

The iron pot was on a tripod, which was perfect for cooking.

They had brought a lot of meatloaf previously and could even use it as the main dish.

Even if the meatloaf was a little cold, it would be warm after being roasted over the fire.

Luo Cheng boiled some hot water in the iron pot and then added some ginger that he had encountered when digging for herbs.

“Fortunately, we dug up ginger previously. If we boil a pot of ginger soup now, it can help warm us up!” Luo Cheng said as he threw the sliced ginger into the pot.

To be honest, in this weather, it was a blessing to have a warm fire and a pot of hot water.

Something that made Li Xiaoran even happier came! Luo Cheng found a piece of cured meat from somewhere in the stone house and roasted it.

“There’s even bacon here?” Li Xiaoran asked in surprise.

Seeing Li Xiaoran’s happy expression, Luo Cheng also laughed.

“I’m a hunter. I always hunt a lot of wild animals in the mountains. Some things can’t be brought back, so I made them into cured meat. There are still more than ten pieces of cured meat in the house. You can eat as much as you want! In addition, there are also some rice and noodles stored here. So as long as we return to the stone house, we won’t have to worry about lacking food or clothes!”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately laughed.

“Then we really don’t have to worry about dinner tonight!”

Luo Cheng smiled and nodded. Then he took the roasted cured meat outside.

There was also a thatched shed built outside the stone house. It was usually used for washing up.

A pipe made of bamboo caught the water flowing from the stream and flowed into a pool before flowing out.

Luo Cheng had come here to rinse the cured meat with this stream.

The deer that had been tied up previously were also placed here, so there was no need to worry about the food being exposed to the wind and rain.

Soon, the cured meat was washed and Luo Cheng returned to the house.

With a swift movement, Luo Cheng cut the cured meat into a few pieces and threw them into the ginger soup he had boiled previously.

“There are pancakes, meat, and soup. With some vegetables, the meal will be complete!” Li Xiaoran marveled as she dried the coat she had taken off.

“What’s so difficult about that? Wait!” Luo Cheng said. He got up and went to get the raincoat and bamboo hat hanging on the wall of the stone house. Then, he changed into a pair of straw shoes and went out.

“Hey, I was just saying so. Don’t go out in the rain!” Li Xiaoran wanted to pull Luo Cheng back, but Luo Cheng only waved at her and ran into the rain.

Before long, Luo Cheng walked in with a basket of washed leeks.

“There’s chives in this valley?” Li Xiaoran immediately understood something and blurted out.

“That’s right! There aren’t many wild vegetables in this valley, but there are a lot of chives. What’s even more amazing is that there are chives all year round.” As Luo Cheng spoke, he took off the raincoat with Li Xiaoran’s help.

Fortunately, this raincoat was relatively big and the bamboo hat was also very big, so his top wasn’t wet, but his pants were wet.

“Look at you. I know you’re in good health, but you shouldn’t disregard your health like this!” Li Xiaoran complained when she saw this.

“It’s fine. I’ll go change my pants!” Luo Cheng said as he handed a basket of chives to Li Xiaoran while he went to the other bed.

After closing the curtain beside him, Luo Cheng disappeared.

Seeing that there was a curtain, Li Xiaoran heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she took out the washed chives and placed them in a clean soup bowl.

Luo Cheng moved quickly. It didn’t take long to change into a pair of pants. Then he hung up the wet pants with a bamboo hanger and roasted them by the fire.

“Hurry up and warm yourself by the fire. Stop working!” Li Xiaoran called Luo Cheng to sit down. “I just said it casually, but you took it seriously. Why did you rush out into the rain? Are you stupid?”

“I’m not stupid. It’s just some wild vegetables. If I can do it, I naturally have to do it! I know you feel sorry for me, but I also feel sorry for you!” Luo Cheng said with a smile.

Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng and couldn’t help but laugh when she heard such sweet words.

“You don’t seem like the same Luo Cheng from the first time I met you!”

“That’s how I am in front of strangers. Of course I act differently in front of you!” Luo Cheng said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, the roasted meatloaf was ready. Luo Cheng picked one up and blew on it. After cooling it down a little, he handed it to Li Xiaoran.

“You must be hungry now. Eat a meatloaf to fill your stomach first! This cured meat will be cooked soon. After I cut it, we can cook chives for dinner!”

Li Xiaoran didn’t refuse. After taking it, she began to eat.

At this moment, the wind outside was stronger and the rain was heavier.

Compared to Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng, Li Yan and Pei Xuanxin were miserable in the other cave.

The two of them came to the mountain to look for reishi mushrooms. They didn’t find reishi mushrooms, but accidentally rolled into a waterhole.

In order not to fall sick, the two of them went to the cave again. Under Li Yan’s initiative, the two of them made love again.

At this moment, the wind and rain were heavy outside. The two of them, who were snuggled up together, were hungry.

...

Li Yan and Pei Xuanxin’s clothes had already dried. After dressing up, they looked at the wind and rain outside and were a little worried.

“Yan’er, are you hungry now? I still have some dry food hidden here. Why don’t you eat some to fill your stomach first?!” Pei Xuanxin hesitated for a long time before finally taking out the two wild vegetable cornbread he still had on him.
