Shu Yu lived up to her promise, and the spicy rabbit cubes she made were flavorful. The aroma was so enticing that not only the entire Lu family salivated, but even the people from the neighboring households stood in their yards sniffing the air and grumbling with envy.
Fortunately, the Lu family had finished their meal early, and many people had yet to return. They had already enjoyed the delicious spicy rabbit cubes, leaving only a lingering fragrance in the air.
The whole family ate until they were slightly stuffed. Shu Yu stood in the yard, helping with digestion while checking on the sunflowers she had planted. Although only the seeds were buried in the soil, it didn't stop her from standing nearby, "encouraging" their growth.
At that moment, a knock on the door sounded, and Da Hu ran over to open it.
Immediately, he turned his head and called out to Shu Yu, "Second Sister, someone is looking for you."
Someone looking for her?
Shu Yu stood up from a corner of the yard, realizing that she didn't know many people in Zhengdao Village. She thought it might be someone from the Zhang or Fang families, or maybe the mother and daughter from the Hou family. But when she reached the door, she saw a face that seemed somewhat unfamiliar yet vaguely recognizable.
"You are..." She must have seen this person before.
The person maintained a serious expression and introduced themselves without any emotion, "I am Ma Lu from the Third Team."
Ma Lu?
As soon as she heard the name, Shu Yu remembered, "Ah, it's you. Do you need something from me?"
Ma Lu, the leader of the Third Team in the hunting squad.
The Third Team consisted of six individuals, all of them tall and sturdy. In Zhengdao Village, they were considered a rare group of people who enjoyed particularly good food. It was said that they often brought back the largest game, making them exceptionally formidable.
This team usually kept to themselves and didn't seem to have much interaction with the other teams. When the official wanted to assign Shu Yu to different teams, the Third Team remained silent, seemingly indifferent to the matter. When Shu Yu chose to team up with Fang Xi Yue, they were the first to leave the estate to go hunting.
It was strange that someone who rarely spoke a word would come looking for her.
Shu Yu observed Ma Lu, and he also looked her up and down. After hearing her question, he pondered for a moment before asking, "May I come in to talk?"
Shu Yu stepped aside, allowing him to enter.
It was indeed inconvenient to have a conversation at the doorway.
Ma Lu entered the house, still catching a whiff of the tantalizing food aroma. According to the official in the estate, the two girls from the Ninth Team, each caught a rabbit. Ma Lu couldn't help but feel a sense of wasted opportunity. He had always cooked rabbits by boiling them in a pot and adding some salt or other seasonings. Now, he felt like he had missed out on something extraordinary.
Once inside the main hall, Shu Yu poured him a cup of water.
Only then did Ma Lu speak, "I heard that you caught a wild boar today?"
Shu Yu nodded, "Yes, we were lucky."
Lucky?
Perhaps Ma Lu would have thought the same yesterday, but not today. Their return time was similar to previous days, and they had also encountered the other teams along the way. However, they hadn't seen the two girls from the Ninth Team.
Yesterday, the others had teased that the girls might have been too embarrassed to show up because they hadn't caught any game. But today, no one dared to think that way.
Especially when they saw the fat wild boar lying in the storage shed, everyone was shocked and took in a sharp breath of air.
