Chapter 411
Luo Cheng didn't go back to the cave right away, but went to chop firewood with a hatchet in his hand.

He was worried that the little firewood just now would not be enough to burn until dawn.

On the mountain in winter, dead trees and leaves can be seen everywhere.

Some tree trunks, hollowed out by moths in summer, can be shaken topple.

Luo Cheng was lucky. He encountered a dead tree with the mouth of a bowl, and it fell to the ground.

He picked up the hatchet and chopped it a few times, then stood on it and stepped on it hard, and it broke.

Luo Cheng picked up the dead tree and dragged it to the cave.

Seeing that he came back with only a dead tree and no prey, Li Jiaoniang thought he was unlucky and returned empty-handed, so she comforted him, "It's hard to catch prey in windy and snowy weather. Just come back safely. Let’s just have a night of warming up by the fire, and go down the mountain tomorrow morning to buy delicious food from the villagers’ houses.”

She was smiling, not angry at all, and stepped forward, lovingly patting the snowflakes on Luo Cheng's cloak.

Over there, Li Peiyu rolled her eyes, "Hey, Li Jiaoniang, didn't you say that your guy is very powerful? Why did you come back empty-handed?"

Mu Xuan also looked towards Li Jiaoniang Luo Cheng with mocking eyes.

Li Jiaoniang sneered, "Are you blind? Where are you empty-handed? Didn't you see this dead tree? This is firewood!"

"I'm talking about wild game. Didn't he say to hunt wild game? Where is it? Hehe, brag, I don't have the ability to hunt wild game at all!" Li Peiyu sneered.

Li Jiaoniang smiled, and started a fire with a branch, "He has no skills, but he can drag a tree back, but the one in your family is very capable, but he can't even break a branch, he only knows how to buy it with money. Oh , I’m sorry, we don’t sell firewood now, even if we give 500 taels of silver! It’s such a cold day, and it’s dangerous outside, so we don’t mind taking risks to earn that little silver!”

She supported Luo Cheng to sit on her seat, "Brother Luo Cheng, it's warm here, you sit here."

A few more firewood were added to stir up the fire.

Li Peiyu glared at her angrily and stopped talking.

Luo Cheng looked at her and smiled.

Mu Xuan was even more annoyed, wishing he could throw the talkative Li Peiyu into the ravine!

She offended Li Jiaoniang Luo Cheng, they stopped selling firewood, and if his firewood is burned out, will he freeze to death?
"Don't worry, Jiaoniang, there will be something to eat." Luo Cheng stretched out his hand to warm the fire, and smiled slightly.

Li Jiaoniang thought he was talking empty words to comfort her, and nodded slightly with a smile, "Yes, there will be bread and everything. In order to survive, we must have hope."

As soon as she finished speaking, a little gray-haired creature suddenly came into the cave from outside and jumped in front of her.

After throwing down a fat hare that was bitten to death, he ran away quickly.

Li Jiaoniang: "..." Was it Xiao Tiantian who ran over just now?
"I didn't lie to you, Jiao Niang? I said there would be something to eat. Look, isn't this here?" Luo Cheng smiled and said, "There is a helper to help, why should I do it myself?" He stretched out his hand to pick up the hare , "Well, such a fat rabbit, enough for the three of us to have a full meal."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "How did you summon it? It's so far down the mountain from here, can it hear you?"

When she met a leopard on the mountain just now, she tried to play the piccolo and summoned the gray furry ball to help.

However, she blew several times in a row, but the little thing did not appear.

She knew right away that this place was too far away from the foot of the mountain, and the gray curly ball couldn't hear it.

Luo Cheng said, "No, it found it by itself."

"Oh? You still know how to worry about us." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile, "Not bad, not bad, I didn't raise it for nothing, I will reward it with a fat rabbit leg later."

"I'm going to kill and wash, and I'll roast the rabbit later." Luo Cheng took out a small dagger from the side of his boots, picked up the rabbit, and walked outside the cave.

Li Jiaoniang smiled and looked at the stunned Li Peiyu, "Sorry, we have wild game to eat, and the hares are not big enough!"

Li Peiyu sneered, "It sounds like we're going to grab it."

Li Jiaoniang nodded, "Okay, remember to keep your word and don't come to snatch it!"

Mu Xuan glared at Li Peiyu again, will he die if he doesn't speak?
The gray-haired curly ball that ran away moved quickly, and came back after a while.

This time, it came back with a paper bag of salt.

Li Jiaoniang couldn't help laughing, pinched its little ears and praised it, "You even know how to bring salt?"

After Luo Cheng killed and washed the hare, he walked in and said, "I asked it to bring it. The roasted rabbit meat is hard to eat without salt."

"Ah, Brother Luo Cheng is very thoughtful." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

The two work together.

Li Jiaoniang found two sticks, threaded the hare meat, and sprinkled salt on it.

Luo Cheng cut down two thicker tree poles and set up the fire.

Next, he roasted the hare on the fire.

When the rabbit meat encountered a hot fire, it made a sizzling sound after a while, and oil and water dripped down from time to time, dripping into the fire, and there was a burst of fragrance.

The gray curly ball was lying on the side of Li Jiaoniang's skirt, staring eagerly at the rabbit meat.

Li Jiaoniang pointed to a rabbit leg and said with a smile, "I'll give you this leg later, how about it? This is the hind leg, but it's fat."

The little guy immediately bared his teeth, stuck out his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of anticipation.

Luo Cheng is an expert in grilled game.

After more than half an hour, he roasted the whole rabbit until it was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the meaty fragrance wafted all over the cave.

One of the rabbit's hind legs was given to Li Jiaoniang, and the other hind leg was given to the gray fur ball.

He ate the less fat front legs.

"It's delicious, it's delicious, brother Luo Cheng, you're amazing, the simple roasted rabbit meat is actually so delicious." Li Jiaoniang praised repeatedly.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." Luo Cheng watched her eat with a smile.

Where is delicious?She was obviously very hungry and desperate for food.

Seeing the three of them eating with gusto, Li Peiyu was almost drooling.

She looked at Mu Xuan eagerly, "Brother Mu..."

Mu Xuan closed his eyes and ignored her.

He didn't want to seek humiliation any more.

Mu Xuan didn't speak and ignored it, so Li Peiyu could only sigh, endured the temptation of food, closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Who told her to get separated from her father without bringing any money?She has had the worst luck today!
If she had money, she would go to Li Jiaoniang to buy a rabbit leg.

These two pretended to be noble and not to harass, Li Jiaoniang was exactly what she wished for.

When she was full, Li Jiaoniang went to the mountain spring outside, took the water, rinsed her mouth and washed her hands, walked back to the fire, and put on her cloak to rest.

She smiled and said, "Today is perfect."

Seeing that she had finished eating, Luo Cheng began to eat seriously, and he let the gray hairball eat all he could eat.

This little thing was only as big as a squirrel, but it was so edible that it wiped out half of the remaining rabbits.

Li Peiyu saw it, and her eyes almost burst into flames with jealousy.

Although there is a gray curly ball, I can accurately know the way down the mountain.

But it must be night, the wind and snow outside are very heavy, and the mountain road is dangerous, Luo Cheng does not agree to go down the mountain overnight.

Li Jiaoniang thought about it, there was nothing urgent anyway, so she was not in a hurry to go down the mountain, she sent the gray curly ball down the mountain, and then guarded the carriage.

Xiao Jiahui was full, full of energy and happily ran away.

Luo Cheng chopped off all the branches of the dead tree and piled them up next to the fire for later use.

Li Jiaoniang added more firewood to the fire, and she yawned, "I'm sleepy, brother Luo Cheng, sleep now."

"Well, I'm asleep." Luo Cheng sat down beside her, fished her little head into his arms, and shook off the cloak to cover the two of them.

The firelight shone on their faces, soft and warm.

Li Peiyu became jealous again.

He is also a man, why is Li Jiao's natal family so caring and gentle, but her fiancé is so selfish?
Really complied with that sentence, people are better than others, and people are pissed off!

She thought so, and Mu Xuan thought so too, Li Jiaoniang was bold, virtuous and intelligent, but Li Peiyu was unruly, capricious and stupid.

If it wasn't for the horoscope of Yinghe's birth date to avoid the disaster of blood and light, how could he, the grandson of a third-rank university scholar, marry a young daughter of a sixth-rank official?

……

Although she was full, she fell asleep by the fire. It wasn't too cold, but she didn't sleep on a soft bed. No matter how uncomfortable she was, Li Jiaoniang woke up before dawn.

Opening her eyes, she found herself sleeping in Luo Cheng's arms, and Luo Cheng was sitting.

She was still covered with Luo Cheng's cloak.

She looked up and saw Luo Cheng looking towards her, "Are you awake?"

"You didn't sleep?" Hugged her all night?This man!
"Choose a bed, I can't sleep." Luo Cheng muffled.

Li Jiaoniang pulled her lips, pretending?You are not a high-ranking son, what kind of bed should you choose?It is obvious that he is trying to care for her in a different way.

Anyone who picked a bed like her slept for a while.

Li Jiaoniang got up from his arms and put the cloak on him, "I slept well, ah, so comfortable."

She stood up, stretching her arms and kicking her legs to move her shins.

Spotting the other party, Li Peiyu was shrinking back, looking at her with envy.

This one didn't sleep either?
That's right, she picked a good man, but she didn't feel sorry for her. She selfishly wrapped herself in her cloak and slept by the fire, completely ignoring Li Peiyu.

Li Jiaoniang smiled slightly and said a few words with her lips.

Li Peiyu snorted angrily, "Li Jiaoniang, what are you talking about?"

"I said, the man you choose, good or bad, is up to you." She said with a smile.

"You... ah, I'm not done with you!" Li Peiyu couldn't stand the humiliation anymore, got up from the ground, and rushed to Li Jiaoniang.

Luo Cheng grabbed the hatchet and held it in front of Li Jiaoniang, blocking her, "What do you want to do?"

Li Peiyu was so frightened that she didn't dare to take half a step forward, and retreated in embarrassment.
