Chapter 315 Giving Gifts
Qi Xu nodded and went out, letting her have a good rest.
Zhou Mingshu's waist still hurt a little, so she leaned on the pillow upright to rest.
Being injured by the horse this time was both a curse and a blessing for her.
Although I couldn't move in bed, I could at least lie down for a few days.
She usually worries too much and has no free time every day. After this incident happened, she finally came to terms with it.
The family's conditions were already good, so who in the village wouldn't envy them? If they worked harder, they would cross the class barrier.
She doesn't ask for wealth and fame, she just wants her family to be healthy.
Just treat this period of time as a vacation for yourself.
She took a bamboo pole, picked up some fish food and put it into the fish tank. The little fish in the tank swam over and took big bites of the food.
Finally I found something to do.
Qi Rui led a group of people into the mountains. They wanted to hunt some prey for everyone to enjoy.
Many soldiers were extremely happy when they heard the news, and they polished their knives and other tools early in the morning.
I heard that there are a lot of prey in the mountains, not to mention rabbits and pheasants, which are all standard. The animals they most want to hunt are wild boars, wild wolves and the like.
I wonder where the general plans to take them, and whether they can encounter this kind of prey.
Qi Rui didn't think so much about it. He wanted to hunt two goats or two deer, take the other small ones back as snacks for his brothers, and give the bigger ones to Miss Zhou for nourishment.
A group of people walked into the mountains for a long time. They killed a lot of pheasants, rabbits, and a few roe deer, but they didn't see any wild boars, wild wolves or deer.
What we have in our hands is not enough for the brothers to share. We still have to hunt some larger prey.
After walking a little further inside, they were almost exhausted by the heat, and then they discovered a deer!
Everyone immediately held their breath, afraid of scaring away the little deer that was about to be eaten.
But all movements in the deep mountains were magnified many times, and even if they were careful, they still made noises.
The alert little deer was frightened and ran away.
No matter how good Qi Rui's archery skills were, he still missed in the end.
However, when everyone saw the deer, they were not as discouraged as before. At least it showed that there were good things in the mountains.
After circling in for a while, they found a few furry ones!
Everyone was more careful than before. It was a pity that the deer was scared away before. No matter what animal it was this time, they couldn't be scared away again.
Since it concerns everyone's appetite, all the soldiers are very concerned about it.
Finally, a few furries were encircled and the prey was captured effortlessly.
These are some goats! Some are big, some are small. There are eight or nine of them in total.
One of them was pregnant, and Qi Rui originally wanted to let it go, but after thinking about it, he kept it.
He chose another fat sheep, gave the other two sheep to Miss Zhou, and took the rest back to the camp as a snack.
As the sun set, the group of people dared not delay any longer and quickly returned to the camp along the same path they had come.
The brothers who stayed behind in the camp were so happy to see so many prey brought back that they set up a barbecue grill.
Just wait for the sheep to be slaughtered, skinned and roasted on the rack.
"Rufeng, send someone to the restaurant to buy some dipping sauce powder. It will taste better when eaten with barbecue."
"I'll do it right away."
When Rufeng came back, Qi Rui had already changed into clean clothes.
I knew that the two sheep were to be given to Miss Zhou, but I didn't expect that the master would go there in person.
So in the end, the four people and two sheep walked slowly towards Lianglin Village.
There were only Feng and her few relatives at home. When they saw Lord Qi coming, they all felt a little awkward.
Feng asked Daya to look after the two children while she busied herself serving tea and water, imitating the way her mother-in-law had entertained the adults before.
Qi Rui didn't know how to exchange pleasantries. After drinking some tea, he simply explained his purpose.
It was simply that the camp went into the mountains to hunt and hunted a lot of prey, and everyone couldn't finish eating them. And knowing that Zhou Mingshu was injured, they sent some food to replenish his body.
Feng had never expected that Lord Qi was so kind-hearted that he specially sent her two big live sheep, one of which was even carrying a lamb.
She quickly took the sheep and tied it to the backyard, while Qi Rui went into the house to comfort Zhou Mingshu.
Zhou Mingshu already knew what was going on in the room and could hear everything through the window.
Qi Rui had already thought of what to say, but when he saw the person, he felt that those words were too fake, and he didn't want to say it again. He stammered and couldn't make any sense, so he simply didn't say anything.
Zhou Mingshu opened her big watery eyes, which were full of curiosity.
Why did Lord Qi suddenly send her two goats?
Did he want her to cook some delicious food?
Now she can’t lift anything with her hands or carry anything on her shoulders, and she can’t do anything at all.
"you……"
"grown ups……"
The two of them hesitated to speak, but unexpectedly they spoke at the same time.
"You speak first……"
"You go first..."
Once again, we spoke at the same time...it was quite embarrassing.
Zhou Mingshu scratched his head in confusion. What was going on?
"How do you feel now? Are you feeling better?" Qi Rui asked.
"My Lord, I am much better now. Thank you for your concern and for sending me two goats. My grandmother and the others are not at home. I will go and thank you when I am better."
"That's good. If you feel any discomfort, ask Qi Xu to find a military doctor. You should have a good rest these few days and think about how to thank me."
Zhou Mingshu was about to nod when he heard the last sentence. He had never seen anything like this before, so he unconsciously uttered, "Ah?"
Seeing that she still had doubts, Qi Rui continued to ask, "Any questions?"
Didn’t she say she was going to thank him?
"No, no, no problem." Zhou Mingshu quickly raised his hands to deny it.
When Qi Rui saw her shaking her head like a rattle, he knew that she had recovered well.
He turned his head and nodded thoughtfully.
"If you want to ride a horse next time, go to the military camp. You can ride any horse there. Mares and ponies are more docile and will be more suitable for you. There will also be professional trainers to teach you, so you won't be thrown off the horse again."
"Thank you, thank you sir, but I don't want to learn for the time being."
Zhou Mingshu was a little scared. What if he couldn't control it well and fell again?
It was fortunate that I was misaligned this time. If I had been stepped on or kicked by the horse, it would not have been such a simple matter.
This may be the case of "once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years."
"Huh? Are you scared? You've already fallen, and if you don't learn it, wouldn't it be in vain?"
Zhou Mingshu listened to Qi Rui's speech and felt that what he said made sense!
"Well...let's talk about it after my waist gets better."
"Yeah, okay. It's getting late so I'll go first."
Zhou Mingshu nodded.
After finishing his work, he had no reason to stay any longer, so he left with his group.
