Translator: Lonelytree

When Lin Yuelan came back with Liefeng with six hares and four pheasants, Guo Bing and the others were shocked again.

They surrounded Lin Yuelan and looked up and down, but they couldn’t figure out how this child, who was not even as tall as their waists, could hunt so many wild animals.

Moreover, she had only been out for less than an hour.

In just an hour, she had hunted six hares and four pheasants. Wasn’t this a little too exaggerated? For the soldiers, it would take longer for them to hunt this many animals in the mountains.

Lin Yuelan looked at the big guys surrounding her, looking at her with glowing eyes. She asked in puzzlement, “Statue uncles, why are you looking at me like that?”

“Statue... statue uncles?!”

Guo Bing and his subordinates were shocked by this new title. contemporary romance

Lin Yuelan nodded her head as if it was normal. “I don’t know your names, and all of you have the penchant for standing there stupidly like stone statues. Don’t you think the name statue uncles suit you perfectly?”

Guo Bing felt that ever since he met this child, his power of speech was fully taken away. The child would constantly injure his heart with her sharp words.

Guo Bing coughed twice and said, “Miss, I’m Guo Bing. You can call me big brother Guo from now on. May I ask your name, Miss?”

Lin Yuelan threw the wild rabbits and pheasants to the soldiers and said, “Clean them up! Oh, by the way, if you want to eat them, the prices are the same. One tael of silver each.”

Then, Lin Yuelan looked at Guo Bing. Her young and sallow face showed a different maturity. She said calmly, “We only met by chance. After this, we will be on different sides of the world. Why would you need to know my name?”

She only came out to meet them because she wanted to scam them of their money. However, she did not want to get to know them at all.

Among them, there was a general and a first lieutenant. But she just wanted to be a farming villager. She didn’t want to get close to them because of their high status. Therefore, it was better for them to stay strangers in the future.

Guo Bing immediately fell silent.

Indeed, their acquaintance was just an accident.

They were soldiers, and she was from this mountain.

They would be in the military camp for a long time, but she could be anywhere. They couldn’t pretend that they were not soldiers, generals, and first lieutenants. So, why would they need to know the identity of this child?

However, when Jiang Zhennan heard Lin Yuelan, his eyes could not help but darken, and his heart felt a little sour. He had never felt this kind of feeling before.

Although he had not interacted with this child for long, she was the first person who was not afraid of him. She would even talk to him, smile at him, yell at him, and throw a tantrum at him. This made him feel a sense of joy he had never felt in his twenty years of loneliness.

It was the joy of having friends to talk to.

However, his life was destined to be lonely.

He might never see this new friend ever again. But this was a good thing. He was the Ultimate Jinx. He didn’t want to harm her.

Jiang Zhennan’s gaze dimmed for a moment, and he suddenly became a cold and stern general.

Compared to Jiang Zhennan, Guo Bing was still a little unwilling. It was rare to meet such an interesting child. Even if they would not meet again in the future, at the very least, he wanted to know the child’s name so that he’d always have something to remember her by.

Guo Bing was silent for a moment, and then he immediately said with a cheeky smile, “Miss, you’re still so young. Why would you talk about such heavy subjects?

“Besides, so what if we met by chance? This chance meeting proves that we have the fate. Since fate has brought us together, fate can do that again, right?”

Lin Yuelan raised her head and stared at Guo Bing with her big eyes. Then, she pulled up her face and gave Guo Bing a few fake laughs, “Haha. Yes, fate has compelled you to steal from me. If I hadn’t appeared, would you have eaten my mushroom and rabbit without paying?”

Guo Bing immediately apologized, “Miss, the mushrooms were too fragrant, and it was a fragrance that we’d never smelled before. We were too excited that we couldn’t control ourselves.

“However, we did pay in the end. You also charged us a lot for them. You’ve already taken half of my year’s salary. Miss, don’t be so calculative anymore!”

Lin Yuelan raised her eyes slightly and said unhappily, “If you think it’s too expensive, then don’t eat it! Oh, you shouldn’t eat the hare and pheasant either. After all, you think it’s too expensive anyway.”

Guo Bing was really wronged.

He only complained a little, but the child was being so petty.

There was a saying that said women and children were the hardest to raise. They were the most calculative people. This child was both a woman and a child. No wonder she was so petty.

However, this was related to food. Guo Bing had to fight for his welfare no matter what. Although the rabbit and pheasant meat was still one tael of silver a piece, it was still cheaper than that mushroom, which went for one tael of silver a piece.

But then again...

The boss had gone with the girl to pick the mushrooms. He would be able to identify which were poisonous and which were not in the future. The boss could teach them how to differentiate between the two in the future.

With the future of delicious free mushrooms in his mind, Guo Bing decided to buy an entire pheasant. After eating his fill, he would no longer think about the delicious taste of the mushrooms.

The people who went to clean the hares and pheasants returned.

Guo Bing saw this and immediately snatched one pheasant from one of his subordinates. The subordinate was so angry that he wanted to fight Guo Bong. He had spent a lot of effort to clean up this pheasant because he wanted to use half a tael to buy half of it. However, he did not expect his first lieutenant to be so shameless.

Time passed with the men digging into the food. After they had eaten and drunk their fill, they would set off again!
