From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 343: Chapter 341 (Second Update)

”No, recently the weather’s been hot, and the big prey doesn’t come out much. Even the rabbits and wild chickens have gone deep into the mountains, it has nothing to do with Shuangshuang.”

Lu Yuanfeng quickly explained, but to his surprise, Zhang Huai Shu still wore a teasing expression.

”Alright, old man like me wasn’t really after something delicious, just joking with you.

But, boy, you’re like a closed gourd. Do you even know how to get along with girls?”

Lu Yuanfeng nodded, then shook his head, looking completely bewildered.

”You’re really dull! Remember, if you want to get a wife, first, you can’t be too self-aware.

Second, you have to be willing to put in effort. As for what that effort is, you’ll have to figure it out yourself.”

As Zhang Huai Shu finished speaking, his wife from inside the house, Cui Family, poked her head out.

”Old man, who’s there? Should I invite them in for a meal?”

”No need, it’s Feng. He’s got something to do later.”

Zhang Huai Shu replied, hurrying back inside the house.

When he reached Cui Family, she took out a handkerchief and said to Zhang Huai Shu, ”You’re all sweaty, hurry and wipe off.”

”Why don’t you wipe it for me? My hands are dirty!” Zhang Huai Shu squinted his eyes and shamelessly replied.

”You’re really incorrigible!” Cui Family rolled her eyes at Zhang Huai Shu in mock anger, but still picked up the handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Holding Cui Family’s hand, he walked into the house, not forgetting to turn back and give Lu Yuanfeng a ”did you get it?” look.

Lu Yuanfeng nodded at him, and inside, he kept pondering over what Zhang Huai Shu had said.

When he left, Lu Yuanfeng had a more enlightened look on his face, he roughly understood what Zhang Huai Shu meant.

”Fengzi, what did Grandpa Zhang say to you? Why do I feel like your expression is a bit more serious than usual?”

”Nothing much!” Lu Yuanfeng gave a slight grin, revealing his good-looking white teeth.

”Fine, don’t tell me then!”

Mu Shuangshuang didn’t believe that Zhang Huai Shu didn’t say anything, that person looked like someone who always had advice, although he seemed normal in front of her.

”Really, nothing.” Lu Yuanfeng added another sentence, afraid Shuangshuang would remember, he continued, ”Let’s quickly see if there are any fish, Si Niang will go back later.”

”Sure!” Mu Shuangshuang held the Little Black Dog tighter, but she felt she needed to speed up.

Walking towards the foot of Niuwei Mountain to the north, Lu Yuanfeng was fishing in the creek while Mu Shuangshuang was nearby collecting fishwort.

Water boiled with fishwort and gold and silver flower has detoxifying effects. Giving it to the Little Black Dog to eat shouldn’t be a problem.

Little Black had been sticking to Mu Shuangshuang’s side, intently watching the Little Black Dog.

Afraid Mu Shuangshuang would do something sneaky.

This made Mu Shuangshuang really curious, she squatted down and poked Little Black.

”Hey, little thing, tell me, what’s the relationship between you and Little Black Dog? Did you know each other before, or was it that day on the mountain that you provoked the black snake, and Little Black Dog got bitten for you?”

Little Black spun in circles, making a ”hiss-hiss” sound from its mouth, its meaning unknown.

”Alright, alright, say what you want, but you and Little Black Dog can only develop a friendship, any other feelings are absolutely not allowed, you are of different species.”

Mu Shuangshuang deliberately said it to spite Little Black because she believed it understood.

Indeed, Little Black bared its teeth at Mu Shuangshuang and kept clawing with its paws.

After Mu Shuangshuang put the Little Black Dog down, it finally calmed down.

She picked some more fishwort, and also dug out some roots to take back. The roots of fishwort can also be made into a dish, the taste is pretty good though the smell isn’t pleasant, which is why Mu Shuangshuang rarely digs up the roots of fishwort.

After she finished, Lu Yuanfeng was also done.

She approached, Lu Yuanfeng was holding a knife, cleaning stuff off the fish’s back.

He scraped off layer after layer of scales with the back of the knife, working diligently, even spending time to remove a single scale.

Once the scales were clean, he began to gut the fish.

Suddenly, the always quiet Little Black Dog came up, seemingly wanting to eat the fish Lu Yuanfeng caught.

”Little Black Dog, you can’t eat this stuff right now, first get your body back in shape.”

Maybe it was bitten by a snake, from start to now, the Little Black Dog hadn’t barked once, staying quietly, avoiding moving if possible.

It seemed like a very clever dog.

The Little Black Dog curled up, turning into a small meatball, but its eyes remained fixed on the fish in Lu Yuanfeng’s hand.

Just then, Lu Yuanfeng had already cleaned the fish’s insides, including removing the gills.

Honestly, in this era, the number of men who can do these chores could be counted on one hand.

The male dominance phenomenon was too serious, even a fierce woman like Old Mrs. Mu had to bend to Mr. Mu.

Lu Yuanfeng really was an exceptionally good man, willing to work, although his cooking was lacking, his skills as a helper were not to be underestimated.

After cleaning up two fish, they, along with a Black Mink and a dog, went home.

Yu Si Niang was already busy in the kitchen, rice washed, vegetables cleaned, even the fire was lit.

”Mom, you can rest now, Fengzi and I can handle this.”

Yu Si Niang’s clothes were all muddy, apparently just coming back from the paddy field.

”Let me do it, you’ve been working hard in town, I can do some chores at home, how tiring can it be?”

Yu Si Niang wasn’t willing to let her daughter work alone, unwillingly refusing.

”The farm work is really exhausting, Shuangshuang isn’t unfamiliar with it. You spend time with Dad, and later tell me why Grandma caused trouble at noon.”

Mu Shuangshuang believed that since Old Mrs. Mu made such a fuss, there must be a reason, just one she didn’t know.

”Mom doesn’t know, but I do know why your grandma’s angry.”

When she came home, she first went to Zhao Yun’s house, to see if Zhao Yun needed any help, and coincidentally, Zhao Yun told her about Old Mrs. Mu wetting the bed.

She didn’t dare laugh, after all, it was her mother-in-law, if she made it too obvious, she’d definitely be criticized.

”Then tell me!” Mu Shuangshuang perked up her ears, earnestly watching Yu Si Niang.

But Yu Si Niang hesitated since Lu Yuanfeng was there. Technically, she shouldn’t say it, but he was on good terms with them.

”This...”

Seeing Yu Si Niang’s dilemma, Lu Yuanfeng considerately said, ”Aunt Si, I’ll go check on the piglets and chicks.”

After Lu Yuanfeng left, Yu Si Niang lowered her voice: ”Your grandma wet the bed this morning!”

”Huh?” Mu Shuangshuang’s lips twitched, then she burst into laughter.

Old Mrs. Mu, a woman in her fifties, wetting the bed?

Wow, that’s really something, but why would she target her? It’s not like she forced her to wet the bed.

”Shuangshuang, you better stop laughing, if others find out, it could cause big problems.”

Yu Si Niang was very anxious, she didn’t even dare to laugh herself, afraid of being accused of being unfilial.

”Don’t worry, mom, we’re family, others won’t find out.”
