Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 654: Chapter 654: Shocked!

Kang Li laughed and said, when suddenly, her gaze was attracted to a cluster of familiar leaves. Her fox-like eyes shone brightly as she hurried toward the leaves, “There are wild yams here!”

Luo Yanqing followed behind Kang Li, “You stand aside, I’ll dig.”

“Uncle, let me do it.” Kang Yichen came over, took a small hoe out of his basket, squatted down, and said while digging, “Aunt, the clothes you and uncle are wearing are made of fine fabric, and it would be difficult to wash if they get dirty. For this kind of manual work, it’s better for me to do it.”

“And me, my clothes aren’t afraid of getting dirty.”

Kang Yihong, who was picking Chinese dates, called out.

“My clothes also aren’t afraid of getting dirty.”

Kang Yikai didn’t want to be outdone, for their family’s treasured aunt, how could he let her do the work? And since uncle was aunt’s husband, his primary task was to ensure her safety. Besides, with them being nephews, they naturally shouldn’t stand idle either, making the guest exert himself.

“You guys, any good fabric can be cleaned if it gets dirty, as long as you use the right cleaning method. Besides, the clothes that your uncle and I are wearing aren’t special at all and are not at all precious,” Kang Li said.

Even so, Kang Yichen didn’t hand over the hoe, and before long, he had dug up quite a few wild yams.

It turns out that wild yams are a type of wild fruit that grows on the ground, looking similar to tomatoes, and usually found in clusters.

So once you find them, there is certainly a generous amount.

“Aunt, uncle, try one first.”

Kang Yichen picked up two wild yams, cleaned the skin with his hands, wiped them again with leaves from the wild yam vines, and then handed them to Kang Li and Luo Yanqing.

“So sweet!” Kang Li didn’t put on airs; she took the wild yam from her nephew and bit into it without a second word. Instantly, her whole mouth was filled with sweetness. She turned to Luo Yanqing, her bright fox-like eyes brimming with laughter, “Isn’t the taste of this wild yam fragrant and as sweet as honey?”

Luo Yanqing nodded, “Yes, very sweet and very fragrant.”

“Aunt, let’s continue walking forward.”

After lining the bottom of the basket with some wild yam vines, Kang Yichen placed the wild yams on top of the vines and called for Kang Li and Luo Yanqing to leave.

“Big brother, put these Chinese dates into the basket too,” Kang Yikai said as he and Kang Yihong came over to Kang Yichen’s side. The two placed the dates they’d picked into the basket, clapped their hands, and called for Kang Li and Luo Yanqing to head elsewhere.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, Kang Li raised her index finger to her lips and “hushed,” then bent down to pick up several small stones, tiptoed forward a couple of steps, and aimed at some nearby bushes. With swift motions, she threw two small stones.

The next moment, a wild chicken flew out from the bushes, but simultaneously, there was a faint noise coming from inside the bushes.

“Look, what’s this?”

In just a few strides, Kang Li picked up two wild chickens from the bushes.

“Uh…”

Kang Yichen stood astonished, his eyes wide and mouth agape.

Even Luo Yanqing, seeing the two dead wild chickens in Kang Li’s hands, took a while to come back to his senses.

“Stunned, are you?”

Kang Li curved her lips into a smile, “That was nothing. Wait and see, I’ll catch us a few wild rabbits later. Today at noon, our family will have a good feast.”

Kang Yikai was the first to snap back to reality, scurrying over to Kang Li’s side, “Aunt, let me carry them for you.” Watching the young boy’s servile attitude, Kang Li couldn’t hold back a chuckle.
