[Ting Yu] Abandoned in the wild

03. Eat together

"Zhiyuan?!"

A crisp exclamation was inserted into the voice of the young man next to him who was still cursing at the top of his voice. Chen Ting saw a white figure flash in front of him. Stop him from swearing any further.

"Don't...don't be angry, don't..." This man named Xiyu who is said to be his wife always speaks with an unskilled stammering rhythm. Neither can be guaranteed.Only a pair of big watery eyes were full of worry and fear, as if he felt that the other party might be beaten if he continued speaking.

"Xiyu." Ning Zhiyuan stretched out his hand and pulled Xiyu away to protect him behind him, and said viciously, "Don't be afraid, I think he still dares to beat someone in front of me? He thought moving to the deepest part of the tribe to stay away from everyone You can do whatever you want? You have to take the baby to find food for him every day, this bastard should just die."

"Zhiyuan, don't!" Hearing him say death, Xiyu was frightened, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands.

"Xiyu." Ning Zhiyuan pushed his hand away angrily, "You still defend him now, you forgot when he hit you, if you didn't run fast last time, even the baby would..." He stopped in mid-sentence.

Seeing Xiyu's pleading expression with blinking eyes that were about to cry, his heart felt sour, and no amount of anger was extinguished.

He sighed helplessly, "You fool."

When he was picked up, he couldn't speak clearly.But at that time, this bastard man was still not limping, so he treated Xiyu very well.Unexpectedly, after a hunt, this man was bitten by a wild animal and injured his leg. Although the injury was cured by the elders of the tribe, he became disabled from then on.What people never expected was that the only son of the old leader of the tribe, who was once the most respected next leader, was completely decadent like this.Taking Xiyu to the deepest part of the tribe, he eats and sleeps every day, or trades things at home for wine, and beats people when he is drunk.Poor Xiyu, still with her baby, has to drag her frail body to follow the hunting team every day to pick up some food that others don't want, so that she can barely eat.But this man can hide at home with peace of mind, and will do nothing but bully others.

Thinking of the past, Ning Zhiyuan became even more angry.But seeing Xiyu's aggrieved appearance but still defending this man, he felt even more angry, so he simply ignored it, shook off Xiyu's hand, turned around and left.

Biting her lower lip and watching him walk away, Xiyu turned around timidly, and cautiously said to Chen Ting who had been standing silently by the side: "Ah...Ah Ting, the meal...is ready!"

'Ah Ting? 'It seems that this is my name here, but it is surprisingly similar to my own life.

But then, his condensed gaze dimmed again, and the little guy lowered his head slightly, allowing him to see two bruises on the back of his neck, which were obviously scars caused by a brutal beating.Chen Ting could no longer calm down when he thought that all the injuries suffered by this fragile man were caused by his own body.

"Let's go." Without any explanation, he dragged Xiyu back to the house.

"I... I didn't do anything wrong." Terrified by his expression at the moment, Xiyu quickly hid in a corner as soon as he returned to the house, and the baby behind him also hid his small face behind him, both pairs were equally beautiful The almond-shaped eyes looked at him with the same expression of fear.

Chen Ting remained calm on the surface, but he couldn't help sighing in his heart, and walked slowly to his side, "I didn't do anything wrong...so what?"

"No...don't hit me!" His cold tone was like a cold sharp knife, Xiyu pursed his lips and almost cried out.

When Chen Ting walked in, he realized that the man named his daughter-in-law looked weak and weak. He didn't expect that the two of them were about the same height.When they were face to face, I could easily see his bright eyes through his overly long hair covering his forehead.

"Isn't it allowed to hit someone if you haven't done anything wrong?" Chen Ting asked back.

Xiyu froze, thinking that he might not be able to escape.Gritting his teeth to hold back his tears, he gently untied the rope on his chest, hugged the baby wrapped in soft animal skin and carried it behind his back, tightly protecting him, and turned around slowly.

"Please, the baby is too young, you... don't hit him, just hit... hit me."

Chen Ting's sharp eyes were dim and inexplicable, countless emotions flashed through them quickly but disappeared one by one.He asked himself that he was definitely a cold-blooded and ruthless person, even facing a character like his uncle, he could kill him with one blow without hesitation.But I don't know why, but the appearance of the little man in front of him waiting for the beating with his weak back touched his heart endlessly.

"Fool." Two words were softly spit out from the mouth almost silently.

Then, he stretched out his hand abruptly, ignoring the other person's violent trembling, and picked him up horizontally, limped to the animal skin where he was sleeping, and put him down.

"Even if you do something wrong, you don't need to be beaten." He squatted down and rubbed the stunned little daughter-in-law, "I won't beat you again." After speaking, he stood up and walked to the fire At the side, he took off the good meat from the wooden rack and walked back to the hide.

"Eat." He handed the meat to Xiyu.

"No..." The little guy shook his head and pushed his hand, "I'll give you all to eat, Xiyu and the baby drink up." He pointed to a stone-hewn bowl beside the fire , and put some rotten mushy objects boiled by unknown objects in it.

To be honest, Chen Ting instinctively thought of pig food when he saw it.

His face darkened, and he directly divided the barbecue in his hand into two along the texture, and handed the other half to Xiyu, "Let's eat together."

For people in the barbaric era, meat was the main source of nutrition and energy.In the past, due to limited physical ability, Xiyu, who could only follow the hunting team in the tribe to pick up the missing meat, could imagine the amount of meat he could wait for.And every time in the past, he left all these to his injured partner without thinking about it, and what he and his baby ate were all kinds of things mixed together and boiled.

Xiyu stared blankly at the meat that Chen Ting handed over, and dared not pick it up with both hands hidden behind his back.Chen Ting waited patiently for a long time, and in the end all his anger was consumed by his poor appearance and turned into a helpless sigh.

"Eat quickly." He pulled out his hand and forced the roast into it.

After finishing speaking, he ignored his reaction, sat down beside him, and started eating.But as soon as the first bite of meat was in his mouth, he was so disgusted that he almost spat it out.There is no salt in this meat. Although it does not have that fishy smell after being roasted by fire, it is still hard to swallow, especially for Chen Ting, who suddenly "changed careers" here from a modern society where food is exquisite. This piece of meat is undoubtedly a kind of torment.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Xiyu who was watching him ignore him and finally put down his mind and began to eat meat with small mouthfuls, and would feed the baby beside him from time to time. Chen Ting sighed. Giving up, he really wanted to give up all the meat immediately to the very happy father and son.

It seems that for me, the first thing to do in this new life in the barbaric era is to solve the problem of salt.
