Three Fat Chickens

"Stop shouting! This isn't your chicken, it's clearly a wild chicken. Don't be a hindrance and go home!" Li Nian instantly became fierce as he berated Shen Wan.

However, he couldn't catch the chickens himself. He was so anxious that he was sweating. He lowered his head and bent his waist to catch them everywhere. However, the three chickens were intelligent. Not only did they peck at him from time to time, but they also learned to attack him.

"Ouch, ouch, it hurts! Don't peck me!"

After a short while, Li Nian's hands and legs were full of small bloody holes from the wild chickens' hard pecks. Their mouths were extremely sharp, and with one peck, they directly took a small piece of Li Nian's meat.

In the end, it turned out to be three pheasants chasing Li Nian. Li Nian was so scared that he cursed, "You bunch of b*stards, you dare to bully me, just you wait! I'm going to destroy your nest tomorrow!"

The sun finally set. Shen Wan sat on a small rock by the river and waited for a while. As expected, the three chickens came back in a line, swaggering around. They must have caused Li Nian quite a bit of damage.

Once again using the rope to tie up three chickens, Shen Wan hummed a song and returned home.

When they returned home, Shen Wan handed the three chickens to Deng Ying and said with a smile, "Mom, this is the wild chicken I caught from the back of the mountain. Make more delicious food tonight!"

As soon as Deng Ying took the three chickens, her wrist felt heavy. She could not help but be shocked by the weight. He said in surprise, "Why is this chicken so heavy? Three of them are at least 8 kilograms!"

Shen Gang, who was walking in the yard, also saw the chicken that Shen Wan had brought back. His expression was also very surprised. "You caught all these?"

He had never thought that his daughter would actually know how to hunt and had even caught three such fat chickens!

A daughter who could do housework and hunt to make up for her family's expenses, wouldn't the neighbors be envious if they knew about it?

"Maybe it's a good year this year. When I went up the mountain, I found quite a lot of animals. I'll catch more next time." Shen Wan said calmly as she put down the basket full of firewood.

In fact, she even saw a few fat wild boars running happily in the interspace treasure land!

She was worried that the wild boar was too big and would attract too much attention if she carried it back directly, so she chose this animal that looked like a chicken. She didn't expect that she would still be stopped by someone familiar.

"Alright, let's have a lot of meat today!" When Shen Gang thought about how his daughter would be able to bring prey home next time, he suddenly felt very happy and smiled.

Deng Ying was also very happy. Only God knew how long her family had not eaten meat for a long time!

Initially, in order to save money for Shen Shu's marriage, Shen Gang did not even buy New Year's goods for this year. However, now that Shen Gang had thought it through, he could go to the city to buy some New Year's goods in a few days and have a good New Year with his family.

Deng Ying deftly tidied up the three fat chickens and hung two of them on the kitchen beam. She took the fattest chicken and cut it into two. One half was steamed and the other half was braised. The chicken was big enough for the family of four to eat until they were full.

The delicious food was quickly served. As soon as the lid was lifted, everyone sitting at the table could smell an extremely fragrant smell. Looking at the chicken in the bowl, it was white, tender, and fresh, looking extremely delicious.

"Wow! This was the chicken that Shen Wan had caught. You're amazing! The chicken is so fragrant!" When she saw that there was so much chicken for dinner, Shen Miao's eyes lit up and her mouth was wide open in worship.

"Come on, it's not like you haven't eaten meat before! Who are you putting on that face for!" Shen Gang looked at his daughter's excited and happy expression because she had meat to eat. He felt guilty. Has he never bought her meat before? 

However, Shen Gang remembered that it was Shen Wan who had brought the chicken back and had credit for it, so he gave Shen Wan and Shen Miao a large chicken leg each and said with a stiff expression, "Don't fight! No one will fight with you, eat slowly!"

Shen Gang's actions surprised Deng Ying and Shen Wan. The two of them looked at each other and found it strange.

Usually, Shen Gang would eat as soon as the dishes were served. He would never care if the other people in the family wanted to eat. Now, he was willing to share the meat with his two daughters. Did he find his conscience or did he change?

Perhaps he sensed that his daughter could bring him hope, so he wanted to treat her better in exchange for someone to take care of him for the rest of his life! As Shen Wan thought, she took a bite of the chicken in her bowl.
