Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 82

Chapter 82: Chapter 82 What do you need me for?

Indeed, just as she had guessed, it wasn’t long before a few rabbits came hopping over, drawn by the scent and jumping into the tree pit, followed by several pheasants and a silly roe deer.

It wasn’t clear if the scent had completely dissipated or if the smells of the small animals in the pit had masked it, but no other animals came afterward.

After ensuring there were no safety hazards, Yunyi climbed down from the tree and deftly collected her spoils into her space.

She thought about saving them for Old Master Chu after his mourning period ended, so she could eat them herself. Or, if she gathered more, she could find a place to sell them.

Realizing it was getting late, she decided against venturing further in. After all, it got dark early in the Lin Zi, and it was best to return promptly. She couldn’t afford to cause trouble right after arriving in the village. Keeping a low profile was key to a comfortable life.

By the time she reached the foot of the mountain, she took out two dead trees from her space and dragged them all the way home. By then, the sky had already darkened.

She had purposefully fried extra dishes at noon, so for dinner, she just made a pot of cornmeal porridge. She planned to eat some tonight and store the rest in her space.

Using this time, she dismantled the dead trees from outside the courtyard and neatly stacked the pieces in the woodshed.

After securing the front door and drawing the curtains, she hurried into her space for a bath; she had gotten quite dirty in the mountains that afternoon.

By the time she emerged from her space, the cornmeal porridge on the stove was almost ready.

Yunyi removed the excess firewood, extinguishing the flames, stirred the porridge with a spoon, and let it simmer a little longer using the residual heat from the stove.

Just as she took out the leftover dishes from noon, she heard someone calling from outside, "Chu Zhiqing, are you home?"

Yunyi walked out of the kitchen. "Who is it?"

A woman’s urgent voice came through, "Chu Zhiqing, I’m Du Yuhua. My husband is Feng Guiming, the leader of the Third Squad."

Although Yunyi disliked trouble, she wouldn’t refuse such a matter. Besides, the clinic really was empty today. "Come in."
