"Go ask for a pheasant."
Ms. Li walked in front of Shen Zhong, her tone tinged with some complaint.
"The pheasant was caught by Brother Lin and the others, I didn't help at all..." Shen Zhong sighed and continued, "Lian Mei, if you want to eat one, I can try again tomorrow..."
"You were there with them, why wouldn't you have your share!" Ms. Li stepped aside to dodge the hand Shen Zhong tried to put on her shoulder, her eyes fixed on him.
"I didn't help at all, how could I have the cheek to ask for a pheasant they caught..." Shen Zhong wanted to say more, but Ms. Li glared at him and silenced him.
Ms. Li gave Shen Zhong a glare and walked away with a snort, leaving him standing there.
Looking at his wife's retreating figure, Shen Zhong couldn't help feeling puzzled.
When had his gentle and considerate wife become like this?
Glancing at his calloused hands again, Shen Zhong let out a heavy sigh.
By the time Shen Zhong returned, Ms. Li had already gone to find Nanzhi.
