The hunter's husband is so sweet

Chapter 68 The Rainy Season is Coming

Thanks to Fu Jingyi's foresight, a few more rooms were built during the reconstruction, so that everyone could live in it. Qi Xuan wanted to pick some peaches before the rain came, because they would probably be inedible after the heavy rain.

Fu Jingyi wanted to go with him, so they took the backpack and went out. Aunt Wang kept telling them to go quickly and come back soon, as they could already smell the scent of raindrops.

The couple did not dare to delay and walked quickly towards the peach tree. There were indeed many peaches on the tree. Fu Jingyi climbed up the tree in two or three steps, "Brother Yi, find some harder ones that can hold the peaches." Qi Xuan looked up from under the tree.

"Okay, Xiaoxuan, stand further away. I'm afraid the peaches will fall and hit you." Fu Jingyi still worried about her husband. Qi Xuan also obeyed and stood further away.

Soon one basket was full, and the other basket was filled with peaches that had fallen on the ground. Afterwards, the two of them went to pick some mulberries.

Fu Jingyi's luck is amazing. In just a short while, he found another wild beehive. Qi Xuan was a little dumbfounded. If this happened in modern times, Fu Jingyi would be a lucky fish and would definitely become famous.

Feeling the dark clouds slowly approaching in the sky, the couple ran home. Sure enough, they had just arrived home, and before an incense stick had even been burned, it started to rain.

It has been three days since Aunt Wang and her family moved in. During these three days, the rain has been falling continuously, sometimes heavy and sometimes light, but it never stops. After lunch, Qi Yue moved a small stool and sat under the eaves, looking at the sky outside with her chin in her hand. "How long will it rain? I'm almost going moldy."

Qi Xuan washed the six glass jars he bought and dried them naturally before making canned yellow peaches. He glanced at Qi Yue who was doing nothing and said, "Yue'er, come and help me. I'll make you something delicious."

Qi Yue instantly perked up, stood up and ran to Qi Xuan, "What's delicious?" Looking at the jar in his hand, "I wanted to ask before, what is this?"

"This is a glass jar, and it's heat-resistant. I'll use it as a container to make canned food for you." Qi Xuan explained.

"Canned food? What is that? Brother Xiaoxuan, you always think of interesting things." Qi Yue followed him into the kitchen, "Help me wash the peaches first." Qi Xuan picked some peaches that were still hard.

One taught the other how to cook, and the two had fun in the kitchen until Qi Xuan put the glass jar filled with peaches into the pot to steam. Qi Yue's eyes widened, "Oh my God, Brother Xiaoxuan, are you really going to steam this?"

"Yes, after steaming it, wait for it to cool down naturally, then you can eat it." Qi Xuan looked at the sky outside. It was still gloomy. Fu Jingyi and Qi Zheng had just gone to Wang's house to check on the situation when it was lightly raining. Why haven't they come back yet?

They came back muttering in their hearts, but their faces were not very good. Qi Xuan's heart sank. Seeing that Qi Yue didn't notice anything unusual, he gave Fu Jingyi a look. The man opposite understood, but didn't say anything. He and Qi Zheng went to change their wet clothes first.

"Yue, it's done!" Qi Xuan put the canned food on the table. "It will be delicious after it cools down. Don't eat it now. Go play with Xiaochen and you can eat together later."

After sending Qi Yue away, Qi Xuan waited for Fu Jingyi and the others in the main room. After a while, the two men came into the house and said, "Brother Yi, big brother, is the house okay?"

Qi Zheng shook his head. "It's just that the roof is leaking a little, but it's generally fine. We can fix it after the rainy season."

Qi Xuan was relieved. "Then why do you look so heavy? I thought the house collapsed. I was scared to death."

Qi Zheng sighed and said nothing, motioning Fu Jingyi to go ahead and talk. "It's better if the house collapses." Fu Jingyi's incoherent words startled Qi Xuan, who didn't know how to respond.

"We happened to see the village chief when we came back, so we wasted time." Fu Jingyi took a sip of water, not knowing what to say so as not to scare his young husband.

Qi Xuan had no idea about this. He was almost dying of anxiety. "Brother Yi, just tell me, what happened?"

"The village chief said that with the current rain, the small animals on the mountain will hide themselves, and some large beasts may go down the mountain if they can't find food..."

Qi Xuan covered his mouth in shock. "This has happened before." Aunt Wang's voice came from outside the door. After she slept for a while, she found that the children were not there. She walked over and heard what they were talking about.

"That was when you were kids." Aunt Wang fell into deep thought, recalling what happened then. "It also rained for a long time, almost half a month, and many crops were soaked. Some villagers' houses were not strong enough to collapse. The village hadn't finished rebuilding yet, and the wild beasts in the mountains came down to attack the villagers because they had no food."

"That year was really tragic. I still remember there were two or three blind bears. The village chief wanted the villagers to abandon their poultry to save their lives, but some people were unwilling to do so. As a result..." Aunt Wang sighed, "Several people died and many were injured."

The more Qi Xuan listened, the paler his face became. Isn't a blind bear a bear? If that thing really came down the mountain to hurt people, he looked up at Fu Jingyi. His man was a hunter and would definitely be called by the village chief. What if he got hurt?

He was in a state of confusion, with all sorts of thoughts. It was not until Fu Jingyi came over and held his hand that he came to his senses, already covered in cold sweat. Aunt Wang was also worried. Although her husband was not a hunter before, he also went up the mountain to hunt and was called out. Although he came back alive in the end, his leg was injured and he could only walk with a limp.

"Godmother, I'll take Xiaoxuan back to the house first. He's in a bad mood." Fu Jingyi was also worried about her husband. Aunt Wang nodded and signaled him to go and comfort him.

After the couple left, Qi Zheng spoke up, "Mom, the village chief just asked us about this. He said that if a wild beast really attacks the village, he wants my brother-in-law to help."

"Brother Xiaoxuan, the canned food is cold. Can we eat it now?" Qi Yue ran in excitedly, only to see his brother and mother sitting there with sad faces. "Mom, what's wrong?" Qi Yue also noticed something was wrong.

"It's okay." Qi Zheng said, "I just told mom that our roof is leaking, and I'm a little worried."

Qi Yue nodded, feeling that something was a little strange, but not sure what it was. "Where's Brother Xiaoxuan?"

"Xiaoxuan is a little tired, so he went back to rest. He said you can eat whatever you want." Aunt Wang didn't want to tell Qi Yue what they had just discussed, and didn't want him to be frightened.

Being embraced by Fu Jingyi and taken back to the house, Qi Xuan grabbed his sleeve and said in a crying voice, "Brother Yi, did the village chief come to you for help?"

Fu Jingyi wanted to coax his husband first, but looking at the little man with red eyes, he nodded. "It's okay, the village chief is just worried, there may not be wild beasts."

He hugged the still trembling Qi Xuan and kept comforting her, "Xiao Xuan, it's okay. I will be fine too."
