Chapter 146 Hero saves beauty
When I woke up, I felt refreshed. Niu Dan was still sleeping. Children need more sleep to grow, so Luo Xiaoran didn't wake him up.
After washing her face, Luo Xiaoran took out the two largest of the remaining four fish, scraped the scales, removed the internal organs, and removed the gills. After cleaning them, she cut them into pieces. Just as she was about to put the pot on the fire to cook, she heard a noise not far away.
When I looked up, I saw that Yi Ru was arguing with several women who had been with her before, and several caravan members who had not slept well at night were woken up.
After a while, Yi Ru came over with four or five eggs in her hands. She held the fishing rod from yesterday under her armpit and had a straw rope wrapped around her wrist with four fish strung on it.
"It's a good harvest." Luo Xiaoran raised an eyebrow in appreciation.
Yi Ru took out two eggs and handed them over. "I found these by accident when I was collecting firewood. I'm giving you two eggs to repay you for giving me the fishing rod yesterday."
Luo Xiaoran shook her head: "We have settled the fishing rod issue in full."
Yi Ru still insisted on giving the egg to Luo Xiao Ran, "If I didn't have your fishing rod, I wouldn't be able to catch so many fish. You should take it!"
Luo Xiaoran did want to help yesterday, and seeing Yi Ru was so sensible, Luo Xiaoran did not refuse and accepted the two eggs.
"Are these the pheasant eggs you picked up? Was this the reason for the quarrel just now?" Luo Xiaoran asked.
When Yi Ru came to Luo Xiaoran's place, it was equivalent to entering the sphere of influence of the Dongfeng Caravan. The other women did not dare to follow her and they all tilted their heads to watch from a distance.
Yi Ru smiled bitterly, "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. We were originally held captive by that group of bandits. Fortunately, we were rescued and escaped. We can be said to have experienced life and death together.
No matter how nice the words are, people always have selfish desires. You don’t know when you will find people on the long journey, so you must first ensure that you don’t starve to death.
Yesterday I caught a few fish with this fishing rod, and they...they wanted me to share some with them, but I refused.
This morning I was the first to find the eggs, and they wanted to share them equally, but I didn’t want to, so we had a bit of an argument.”
Luo Xiaoran nodded, "I see."
With two more eggs in hand, Luo Xiaoran did not plan to stew the fish fillets. She wanted to process the four fish in her hand, marinate them slightly, coat them with egg liquid, then coat them with flour, and fry the fish fillets so that they could be preserved.
However, the two eggs in hand were not enough. "Have you eaten?" Luo Xiaoran suddenly asked Yi Ru.
Yi Ru was stunned for a moment, and then they both heard the rumbling sound coming from Yi Ru's stomach. Yi Ru smiled awkwardly and said, "Not yet. I... don't know how to make a fire."
"Then give me your remaining eggs, and I'll exchange them for fried fish." Luo Xiaoran stretched out her hand.
Yi Ru had a good impression of Luo Xiaoran, so she directly gave all the remaining eggs in her hand to Luo Xiaoran, and finally got the golden and crispy fried fish pieces.
When she took the first bite, she almost cried. She hadn't eaten for almost two days and two nights, and finally she had a bite of hot food, on this official road in the wilderness. This made Yi Ru feel like it was an unreal dream.
"Cough!" Yunhu's fake cough was heard from the side. Niudan was still asleep and Luo Xiaoran hadn't finished frying the fish nuggets, so she asked Yiru to help pass some fried fish nuggets to Yunhu.
Although Yi Ru had been rejected three times by Yun Hu the day before, he was her savior after all, so it was nothing for her to serve him a dish, so she accepted the commission.
Yi Ru walked slowly towards Yun Hu, and Yun Hu stretched out a hand to take the plate of grilled fish.
Maybe she caught a cold last night. Yi Ru sneezed violently when she got in front of Yun Hu. Fortunately, she grabbed the plate tightly and prevented it from flying out.
Just as he was feeling thankful, Zhuifeng, who was standing next to Yunhu, seemed to be startled by the loud sneeze. He neighed and raised his two front hooves one after another, about to kick Yiru.
At the critical moment, Yun Hu held Yi Ru's hand holding the plate to ensure that the plate would not fall in the panic. He put his other hand around Yi Ru's waist, turned her two and a half circles, and took her out of Zhui Feng's kicking and hitting range.
Yi Ru's extremely flexible waist bent backwards in a large arc. Yun Hu's slender, slightly calloused hands firmly supported Yi Ru's slender waist, which was so thin that it could be grasped with one hand. The woman's waist and the man's hands were such a perfect match.
This operation was quick, accurate and steady, and it not only protected Yi Ru but also saved the fried fish. However, in the end, Yun Hu's face was only two fingers away from Yi Ru's face, and the atmosphere instantly became ambiguous.
Luo Xiaoran, who was frying fish not far away and working hard with a homemade wooden spatula in her hand, was stunned.
What is going on? Is this physical contact?
Yunhu and Yiru reacted and wanted to separate quickly, but Yunhu, a very straight man, probably had no experience in close contact with girls, and for a moment he loosened both hands.
As a result, Yi Ru, who was already leaning, fell to the ground with the vegetables, and no one was spared.
Yun Hu felt very sorry when he saw the fish pieces scattered on the ground, and Yi Ru felt distressed when she saw the scattered fish pieces. The ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them disappeared completely because of Luo Xiaoran's dish.
Luo Xiaoran had no idea that these two guys were thinking about her fish. When she saw them coming towards her, she still had an excited look on her face, but then she heard Yi Ru say:
"Xiao Ran, I'm sorry, all the fish pieces are scattered on the ground."
Yun Hu added, "Please get me some more!"
Crack, something broke. It was Luo Xiaoran's gossipy heart about the couple.
Don't you two have any feelings about the hero saving the beauty just now? Are you only concerned about the fish?
Luo Xiaoran was very disappointed, and said in a cold tone, "Then you guys pay for it!"
"what?"
"It should."
Yun Hu and Yi Ru spoke at the same time. After they finished speaking, they looked at each other and then quickly looked away.
"You two caused this trouble together. Each of you should compensate me with a fish." Luo Xiaoran said as she continued to fry the fish.
"Isn't this fish for me to eat? Why are you asking me to pay for it?" Yun Hu was puzzled.
Luo Xiaoran didn't even raise her head. "It's for you to eat, but it hasn't been handed over to you yet, has it? It's yours after it's handed over to you, and it's mine before it's handed over to you.
Originally, if a fish is gone, it's gone, but I hate wasting food the most in my life, especially something I worked so hard to make, so I can't waste it so easily, so you guys have to pay for it!"
After Luo Xiaoran finished speaking, Yi Ru obediently took the two fish from the rope on her wrist and handed them to her, saying in a low voice: "I'm so sorry, I'll pay for it on behalf of my benefactor."
Luo Xiaoran took the fish, and tried hard to suppress the corners of her mouth that wanted to curl up. She pretended to be angry and said with a hint of meaning: "These four fish are all you have, and you are still paying for him?"
