Chapter 25 - Free Meal

"It's precisely because I haven't been able to find a trace of him so I'm living in the mountains. I'm just waiting to find him and bring him home.

"Miss, if you have heard of this, please do tell me! I will definitely repay your kindness!"

The man's voice became hoarse as he spoke.

Bai Jinyao quickly nodded. "Sir, don't worry! I'll try my best to help you find out more about this!"

"Many thanks, Miss!"

The man in black exchanged a few more words with Bai Jinyao before leaving.

Bai Jinyao watched the man in black leave and wiped the sweat from her forehead. She looked at the pheasant in her hand and wondered if she should stay in the mountain for a while longer.

she thought for a while and did not go down the mountain immediately.

Bai Jinyao had seen many novels and television shows in the modern era, which gave her some inspiration.

Regardless of whether the man in black was a good person or a bad person, she still had to be more vigilant.

"Don't let others follow you all the way to your doorstep without you knowing!" she warned herself secretly.

Bai Jinyao carried a pheasant and continued to wander around the mountains to see if he could get some gifts from nature to fill her stomach.

Bai Jinyao saw a pile of mushrooms and ran over excitedly.

But when she pulled them apart, she found that they were all poisonous.

Even though she couldn't differentiate between food and vegetables, she more or less knew that bright-colored mushrooms were poisonous and shouldn't be eaten.

Bai Jinyao could only get up and continue to wander around in frustration.

She didn't know if she was in luck or what.

Bai Jinyao had only taken a few steps when a loud bang suddenly sounded behind her!

She jumped in shock and turned around, only to see a white rabbit knocked unconscious at the foot of the tree!

Bai Jinyao suspected that she was really lucky today.

This rabbit actually had itself delivered to her door!

It turned out that there was indeed such a thing as a free meal in the world.

Bai Jinyao happily pulled the rabbit's ears and lifted it up. She realized that it was a pregnant female rabbit!

"I'm so da*n lucky!"

She couldn't suppress her excitement.

She thought she could wait for the rabbit to give birth to more rabbits and sell them to make money.

Bai Jinyao looked like she had discovered a great business opportunity.

She put the rabbit and pheasant in the basket, picked up some things that looked like wild vegetables, and covered them. Then she happily prepared to go down the mountain.

However, Bai Jinyao was smart. She did not go straight to town after she left the mountain. Instead, she walked around the foot of the mountain and the village before returning.

By the time Bai Jinyao returned home, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon. It was time to prepare dinner.

Bai Jinyao's mother saw Bai Jinyao's disheveled state and was even carrying a basket on her back. She asked in confusion.

"Yaoyao, where have you been?"

"Mother, I just went to the mountains. Come and see what I got in here!"

Bai Jinyao smiled mysteriously and put down her basket and took out the things inside.

When Mrs. Bai saw the pheasant and white rabbit in Bai Jinyao's hands, her eyes widened.

"Yaoyao, this, this is the prey you hunted in the mountain?"

"Yes. I caught this pheasant with the help of someone. And this rabbit knocked itself unconscious at the foot of the tree. When I saw the rabbit, I quickly caught it. I didn't expect it to be a pregnant female rabbit!

"Mother, let's raise this rabbit first. When it gives birth to the little bunnies, we'll sell a part of them and raise a part of them. That way we can make money!

"As for this chicken, let's cook it tonight."
