in the stove.

Shen Jin was brushing juice on the duck that had just been plucked with a numb expression on his face.

Next to Lu Xiwang...

She was different. She was still a small animal in human hands. Shen Jin was like an executioner, with cruel and rough methods.

But she was like a loving old mother, holding the puppy gently and patiently feeding him rice soup.

"Did you really pick it up on the mountain? How about you being lucky? I couldn't even pick up any grass when I went up the mountain."

"It's good for you, you don't have to be empty-handed, just catch the duck, and you even brought back a little baby!"

"Hey, look at it, it's still looking at me. Its eyes are round and clever at first glance..."

Such a rare thing made people think that some old lady was interested in her grandson.

"If you like it, why don't you raise one yourself?"

Hearing this, the smile on Lu Xiwang's face turned slightly bitter.

She waved her hands pretending not to care: "What do I need to support? It's hard for me to support myself all day long."

Shen Jin glanced at her with emotion. Seeing Lu Xiwang lowering his head to coax the dog again, she opened her mouth but didn't say anything more.

Educated youths like Lu Xiwang moved across provinces and cities and left their hometowns.

Even though they have lived in the countryside for so many years and are said to have taken root here, in fact their roots cannot take root at all.

Chinese people have an obsession with returning to their roots after falling leaves.

The roots of educated youths never lie in where they are, their roots are rooted in their own hearts.

Trapped in the pure land called 'hometown' in my heart.

So even if Lu Xiwang liked dogs, she would not keep them.

She regards herself as a guest and is ready to leave at any time. Naturally, she will not let herself have any more ties in a foreign land.

Seemingly sensing that the atmosphere was not good, Lu Xiwang cheered up and changed the subject: "Nanny, the dog must have a name. What are you going to call it?"

She pinched the puppy's paws and said, "Call it Black Coal Ball? Look at it, it's black. Otherwise, why don't you call it Hei Hei, Hei Dan, Hei Gou Sheng?"

Shen Jin and the system were speechless.

System: "It's okay to call him Colorful Black, but not Black - Black. With this name, the pup will become the most fashionable dog in the village."

"It is worthy of its status as a wild wolf raising a cub, otherwise it would be called disco. If you have a song in the future, why not call it wild wolf disco."

It said forget it and continued to play music.

Listening to 'Divine Comedy', Shen Jin took a deep breath and spoke out to interrupt the ridiculous naming ideas.

"Call it little game."

"What?"

"Little game, what's wrong? I went up the mountain to catch game."

This is called not changing your original intention!

After all, it was Shen Jin's dog. Even though Lu Xiwang couldn't stand the dog's name anymore, he still had to surrender to the dog owner.

After a while, the kitchen was shouting "game, game" non-stop.

Shen Cao'er came back from outside and passed by the kitchen in the fourth room. When she heard there was 'game', she swallowed subconsciously.

Holding her stomach that screamed with hunger, she glared at the kitchen door hatefully.

Shen Jin thought that no matter how good he was, no matter how good he ate, he would just wander around in this small piece of land for the rest of his life.

Unlike her, she had just received news from her grandma, saying that the Tang family had contacted her grandma to take away the bride price.

She is going to marry in the city soon. When she marries Tang Shouli, she will not be able to live a good life and eat good food.

Oh, people say 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. She is just waiting to see how Shen Jin will try to flatter her in the future!

Not knowing that Shen Cao'er was suffering from hysteria outside again, Shen Jin hung the prepared duck into the oven specially built for her by her uncle Hoe.

"Don't be busy for a while. Stay at home and finish your meal before going back."

Lu Xiwang held the game paw and waved towards Shen Jin: "Hey, if you don't tell me, I will have to stay shamelessly."

"Chef Shen is in charge tonight. If you miss this meal, you will regret it for the rest of your life?"

Shen Jin: ...Is it exaggerated?

She shook her head and laughed, then turned around and started making thin roast duck pancakes. There were many people in the family, so two roast ducks might not be enough.

Make more pancakes and stir-fry a few more dishes. When the roast duck is gone, you can wrap the pancakes with vegetables and eat them. It’s like eating spring pancakes.

Anyway, life is rough, and if you can eat it, you will be happy. There is not so much difference between roast duck pancakes and spring pancakes.

Lu Xiwang hugged the dog and watched Shen Jin busy in front of the stove. She didn't know how to cook and couldn't help with anything, but she just stood here waiting to eat...

She still couldn't bear it in her conscience. After all, she was the one who once aspired to be Shen Jin's stepmother. Wasn't this tantamount to bullying her stepdaughter in disguise?

She can't do this!

Secretly taking advantage of his seniority in his heart, Lu Xiwang lowered his head and met Ye Wei's eyes.

When their eyes met, Lu Xiwang suddenly felt blessed!

She suddenly felt that she and Yewei might be able to play the same role - they could both relieve Shen Jin's boredom!

"Nanny, do you want to hear gossip?!"

Her eyes were bright when she asked questions, and the game was lying in her arms... her eyes were also bright!

Shen Jin just looked back casually, just one glance, and was almost blinded by the small titanium alloy eyes of the man and the dog.

"What kind of gossip?" She also wondered, why is she such an extraordinary person surrounded by so many gossips?

Lu Xiwang whispered: "Guess what I saw this morning?"

Shen Jin: This familiar rhetoric is the same as Shen Xiaobao's opening remarks. Do you all love to titillate with your nonsense?

I complained in my heart, but on the surface I still had to give my face a good thumbs up.

Shen Jin followed the good advice: "What are you looking at? Tell me quickly."

Lu Xiwang trotted over with his dog in his arms: "I saw that Mrs. Zhu from the next village, your uncle's mother, came to the entrance of the village this morning to look for Shen Cao'er."

Mrs. Zhu?

Not to mention, whether it is Shen Xiaobao or Lu Xiwang, the gossip content of these two people is not low.

Shen Jin: "How do you know that the old lady is my eldest uncle's mother? Have you met her?"

"I heard from the aunt next to me that they don't avoid us educated youths when they gossip about their wives. Maybe they are not from the same group. Even if we educated youths listen, we can't learn from anyone."

One sentence seemed to have scolded her. Didn't she owe it to her to talk to Shen Jin? !

Lu Xiwang concealed his laughter twice.

Shen Jin didn't care about this. She just felt that since the villagers recognized her, she couldn't admit her mistake.

"Sister Xiwang, did you listen to what Mrs. Zhu said to Shen Cao'er?"

Lu Xiwang honestly shook his head: "I'm far away so I can't hear it, but my aunt said she can read lips and kept her aside to translate for us."

Good guy, Shen Jin didn't even know that there was such a crouching dragon-like figure in their Dayang Village.

Can you read lips?

The little Dayang Village is really a mixed bag, with experts appearing frequently!

"So Wolong... no, did aunt see what they said?"

Lu Xiwang: "My aunt watched for a long time and kept scolding Mrs. Zhu for not being too talkative. However, she saw Shen Cao'er's mouth shape and read out a sentence."

"It seems like a bride price is coming."

"Anyway, with this sentence, the aunts can almost guess that the Tang family in the city is going to marry Shen Cao'er. Didn't Mrs. Zhu come here specifically to talk about it."

Shen Jin frowned: "A gift?"

Thinking of what she was holding in her hand, the IOU that Mrs. Zhu had given her, and her promise to Mother Li that she would take her mother to Mrs. Zhu's house to recover the 500 yuan that the Li family had given her when they 'bought' her sister-in-law. bride price.

Shen Jin chuckled softly: "Okay, it's good to give away the bride price. I'll just wait for her to leave." How can there be money to compensate if she doesn't leave?

It took the Zhu family and the Tang family so long to give out the betrothal gift. I wonder how much trouble Mrs. Zhu went through to get more blood from the Tang family.

The old lady had better be more diligent, or more...heh, when she comes to the door, she will wipe out all the money in the house.
