- Chapter 29 - Chen Wan = 8 Flying Dragon Birds?
After delivering the items, Zhou Wenshan and Chen Wan, disregarding the attempts of Chen Bowen and his wife to persuade them to stay, prepared to return home.
After saying that, he patted the three children on the head and said, “Uncle and Aunt are going back now. Uncle will come to see you again when he has time!”
On the way home, Zhou Wenshan couldn’t help but say to Chen Wan, “Xiao Wan, let’s have two daughters as beautiful and sensible as your niece!”
Chen Wan was walking happily down the road, delivering some things to her family. She felt even sweeter than if she had eaten them herself. This showed that Wenshan’s family valued her, and it meant that her family would have a better life in the village in the future!
Just a few days ago, she thought her family was about to collapse.
In her despair, she unexpectedly married Zhou Wenshan.
And the fact that marriage brought such a big change to their family was like giving them hope in their despair!
Chen Wan also felt a strange sense of gratitude towards her newlywed husband, whom she had only known for a few days.
The two had only known each other for a few days, but even though they were already married, their relationship progressed rapidly.
But her family also holds a very important place in her heart.
Now that Zhou Wenshan and his parents are helping her family so much, Zhou Wenshan’s importance in her heart is also rising rapidly.
When Chen Wan suddenly heard Zhou Wenshan mention the child, she was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, her face turning bright red with embarrassment. She lightly punched Zhou Wenshan in annoyance, “Talking about the child in the street, aren’t you ashamed? What if others hear us!”
Looking at Chen Wan’s charming and shy appearance, Zhou Wenshan found it amusing. “So what? I’m talking to my wife, what business is it of theirs!”
Chen Wan stomped her foot, her face flushed, and ran home, shouting, “I’m not talking to you anymore, you scoundrel!”
Zhou Wenshan chuckled and quickly followed.
The two returned home one after the other, only to find that no one had eaten yet and was waiting for them!
After seeing them return, Zhou Yuanchao stubbed out his cigarette. “Alright, everyone’s back. Let’s eat now!”
Zhou Wenshan hadn’t expected everyone to be waiting for them to come back for dinner. “Dad, why aren’t you eating first!”
Chen Wan felt a little embarrassed because she was delivering things to her family and had delayed everyone’s mealtime. “Dad, Mom, I’m so sorry, it’s all because of me that I kept everyone from eating!”
Before Zhou Yuanchao could speak, Liu Cuihua pulled her into the house. “Silly child, now that you’ve married into the family, you’re family. Why speak like that when you’re family? Let it go this time, but don’t say things like that next time!”
Chen Wan nodded, touched. “Mom, I understand!”
At the dinner table, Zhou Yuanchao suddenly smiled, as if he had just thought of something, “Speaking of which, Wenshan was the one who hunted this pheasant!”
Liu Cuihua was stunned for a moment, her face full of disbelief, while Chen Wan stared wide-eyed at Zhou Wenshan.
Zhou Wenhai exclaimed, “This was done by…Wenshan?”
When Zhou Wenshan heard his father mention this, he became proud and described the scene: “The pheasant was about to fly away, and Dad’s hunting rifle wasn’t ready. In a moment of panic, I picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the pheasant that was flying away. Guess what happened?”
“Hey, with a ‘smack,’ I shot this pheasant down! You guys didn’t see it, but Dad was stunned!”
Liu Cuihua pouted, “You’re just bragging. What hasn’t your dad seen? You think you can impress him?”
Zhou Wenshan remained silent. In any case, he couldn’t say a bad word about Zhou Yuanchao in front of Liu Cuihua. In her eyes, Zhou Yuanchao was the best person in the world, while their two sons were just freebies!
Zhou Wenshan smiled, picked up a chicken leg with his chopsticks, and Liu Cuihua thought he was going to give it to his wife. She thought to herself, “He really has forgotten his mother after marrying a wife.”
As a result, Zhou Wenshan grinned and put the chicken leg into her bowl!
“Mom, you’ve worked so hard, have a big chicken leg!”
There was only one chicken leg in the bowl, so the other one had to be delivered to Chen Wan’s house in that bowl!
Liu Cuihua was a little embarrassed, “You can eat your own food, why are you putting anything on my plate!”
After saying that, he picked up the chicken leg and put it into Zhou Yuanchao’s bowl!
As for Chen Wan, she has Zhou Wenshan to take care of her!
As soon as Zhou Yuanchao saw Liu Cuihua’s movements, he knew what she was going to do!
He moved the bowl aside. “Wenshan put this on your plate, you can eat it!”
Everyone was watching their unintentional display of affection!
Apart from Chen Wan, everyone else was already used to it!
Liu Cuihua wanted to save all her good things for Zhou Yuanchao, putting her two sons last!
I have to say, the pheasant stewed with monkey head mushrooms is incredibly delicious, even better than the home-raised old hen I ate at Zhou Wenshan’s wedding a few days ago!
We ate every last bit of the chicken, soup and all!
Zhou Wenshan said contentedly, “I wish I could eat this pheasant every day from now on. Sigh, I even encountered a pheasant on the mountain today, but it got away! Wouldn’t it have tasted even better if it had?”
Zhou Yuanchao nodded, “The taste of the flying dragon bird is indeed much better than this. Otherwise, how could it be called ‘dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat on the ground’? In the past, the flying dragon bird was a tribute item, which was to be presented to the palace!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenshan exclaimed, “Dad, next time we’ll hunt down a flying dragon so everyone can have a taste!”
“Those flying dragon birds are not easy to kill. They’re very clever. Otherwise, why do you think one of them can sell for about 10 yuan?”
Zhou Wenshan calculated that at 10 yuan each, 8 would cost 80 yuan!
When he married Chen Wan, the bride price was only 88 yuan. Nowadays, the bride price in their rural area is only 60 or 80 yuan!
Wouldn’t that mean you could get a wife just by killing a few flying dragon birds?
Zhou Wenshan glanced at Chen Wan and chuckled to himself. Chen Wan = 8 Flying Dragon Birds?
This meal was very satisfying. I haven’t had such delicious food in a long time. Neither the pheasant nor the monkey head mushroom were cheap!
After all, monkey head mushroom is one of the most famous mountain delicacies!
After dinner, Chen Wan and her sister-in-law went to help Liu Cuihua clear the dishes!
Nobody was going to slack off!
After resting for a while, Zhou Wenshan went to the yard and picked up a few stones of similar size, preparing to test the power and accuracy of his stone throwing!
Zhou Wenhai couldn’t help but chuckle at his actions. “Wenshan, you really want to hunt with stones?”
Seeing his older brother’s dismissive expression, Zhou Wenshan didn’t argue. “Brother, don’t underestimate my skill. Once I’ve mastered it, I might even hunt more game than Dad with his hunting rifle!”
