Chapter 614: Chapter 614: Encountering People from Team Five Chapter 614: Chapter 614: Encountering People from Team Five Fang Xiyue had finished drying the mushrooms and black fungus before running in to tell Father Fang, “Dad, I’m leaving now. I’ll be back in the evening to cook chicken for you.”
Father Fang smiled, “Be careful.”
“Okay.”
Fang Xiyue cheerfully left the house, and after eting with Shu Yu, the two returned to the original spot to start picking mushrooms and wild vegetables.
Seeing that they had almost finished picking, they finally stopped to rest.
Shu Yu felt that after a few more trips, she could probably sell these items and make so money.
It was getting late, and Shu Yu looked at the sky and said to Fang Xiyue, “Let’s finish this patch and head back. The road is tough to walk when it’s dark.”
“Okay.” Fang Xiyue took a sip of water, bent down, and continued to work.
Just as the two were about to get up after finishing picking, they heard footsteps nearby.
Shu Yu instinctively looked up and saw several familiar figures approaching.
Wow, aren’t these the mbers of Team Five who were scoffing at them this morning for being a burden?
They looked a bit ragged, with scratches that could have been caused by branches or thorns marking their bodies, and their hair was a ss, showing dirt all over.
Looking at their catch, hmm, they seed to have disturbed a rabbit warren, with probably four or five rabbits.
The rest was a small lynx.
There were four people in their group, and such loot seed sufficient.
However, compared to what Shu Yu and Fang Xiyue had accomplished by themselves, it still seed sowhat less impressive.
Seeing Shu Yu and Fang Xiyue, the mbers of Team Five were also stunned for a mont, then their expressions subtly changed as they saw what they were doing.
“You aren’t hunting anymore and just picking wild vegetables and mushrooms to make up numbers, are you?”
“After all, they are won; hunting is too hard for them. Cooking and gathering are more suitable tasks for them. However, you are being too naive. The bailiff won’t accept these items. Think of sothing else; while it’s not completely dark yet, look around for wild chickens or rabbits.”
The n burst into laughter.
Shu Yu looked at them as if they were fools, “Who told you we couldn’t hunt? We’ve already delivered our ga to the manor.”
Fang Xiyue nodded, “Exactly, these vegetables are for our own consumption.”
The n from Team Five didn’t believe them, “In denial till the end.”
Fang Xiyue wanted to argue, but Shu Yu held her back.
“Let’s not waste words on them; let’s go.”
Ignoring the four n, the two won, carrying their baskets, left the mountain first.
The n of Team Five exchanged looks, scoffed a couple of tis, but still felt the won were bluffing.
However, when they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw Shu Yu and Fang Xiyue heading in another direction.
That direction was not the way back to the manor.
The n frowned slightly but didn’t care much; if the won didn’t hand in the ga, they would ultimately be the ones at a loss.
The n from Team Five were actually hoping they wouldn’t join the hunting teams. Who knew if today, since they didn’t et the assigned quota, they would join their team tomorrow?
With this thought, the n also arrived at the gate of the manor.
By then, three or four groups had already assembled outside the manor. One group had managed to hunt two wild boars, bringing a flash of envy in his eyes.
The officers ca out, counted the ga, and then instructed them to carry the ga inside.
