Chapter 715: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 715: Stir-Fried Snails
The situation of fifth Team was not looking good. According to the doctor, the leader had a broken arm and had lost a lot of blood. He remained unconscious for three days before finally waking up.
Upon waking up, he couldn't accept the fact that his arm was severed. He shouted and screamed at home, even destroying the vegetables growing in the yard, worsening the already difficult situation for their impoverished family. The rest of the family, who had been living relatively well because of his hunting, became increasingly disgusted with him.
Although he eventually recovered, he was left without much spirit. With his arm severed, hunting was out of the question, so he could only join the land reclamation team.
His situation was somewhat similar to Xu Dali, the man who had also severed his arm while hunting. The difference was that Xu Dali's arm was severed at the forearm, while the leader of fifth Team had lost his upper arm.
However, their attitudes after waking up were completely different. Within the land reclamation team, the leader of fifth Team was quickly deemed useless, and their family situation worsened.
As for the other members of fifthTeam, although their injuries were not as severe as the leader's, many of them were still injured. Two of them suffered severe internal injuries from a single swipe of the bear's paw and were unable to enter the mountains anymore. Another member had minor injuries but was terrified by the previous incident and, after witnessing the leader's arm being severed, became too afraid to even venture near the outskirts of the mountains, let alone go hunting.
Fifth team completely disbanded.
Of course, these events were discussed later.
Shu Yu continued to carry out her duties as usual. She had almost finished playing with her rocks, but Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi still hadn't returned.
She was a bit worried and regretted not asking for more detailed information about their whereabouts.
Two days passed like this. Shu Yu was gradually getting the hang of things at the Zhuangzi, and the sand had almost been removed from the snails she had collected earlier.
Shuyu was feeling a bit hungry and decided to stir-fry the snails to have a nice meal for herself.
After finishing her tasks in the morning, she returned to her home. Since her sleep schedule had been adjusted, she no longer needed to take a nap.
She brought a chair and sat in the courtyard, trimming the bottoms of the snails.
San Ya wanted to help, but there were only large scissors at home, no small ones. Besides, trimming the snails required some strength, and the little girl's small hands might accidentally get pricked.
Shuyu didn't let her do it, and San Ya felt a bit disappointed. "Second sister, are stir-fried snails really delicious?"
"Have you never tried them before?" Shuyu asked.
San Ya shook her head.
Preparing snails took time, and there wasn't much meat on them either. In the past, when the family was poor and her father injured his leg, her mother and grandmother were busy with the field work. She and her older brother had to go and gather pig feed and firewood, but because they were young, they weren't allowed to go to the river to catch snails.
No one had time to deal with such things, and they hurriedly ate their meals every day. So she still didn't know what snails tasted like.
Shu Yu originally wanted to pat her head, but with a snail in one hand and scissors in the other, she couldn't free up her hand. All she could say was, "Then you can taste it later. Has anything I cooked before been bad?"
San Ya thought about popcorn, fried chicken legs, and spicy rabbit meat. She couldn't help but salivate and her eyes sparkled. "No, everything was delicious. Especially delicious!"
Shu Yu smiled and said, "Then you just have to wait. You'll be able to eat them later."
She said "later," but there were actually quite a lot of snails, so the task of trimming them took quite a bit of time.
