Chapter 370: Chapter 370 Aunt Li Chapter 370: Chapter 370 Aunt Li “Aunt Li, you must have loved your husband a lot, otherwise, you wouldn’t have spent so much effort creating these dishes,” Xuexue said, sitting at the edge of the table with a pair of chopsticks in her hand, speaking enviously.

“Yes, indeed! Unfortunately, that cursed ghost died young, didn’t enjoy life for more than a few years, then heartlessly left me alone as a widow,” Aunt Li said, becoming sorrowful as she spoke, her eyes reddening.

It must be so, if Aunt Li hadn’t deeply loved her husband, she wouldn’t have changed so much after his death, sealing herself off in this mansion, no longer socializing, spending her late years in solitude.

“Aunt, don’t be sad, Xuexue will come to see you often from now on.”

Aunt Li’s loneliness and helplessness touched Xuexue, who set down her chopsticks, stood up, and patted her back to comfort her.

“Alright, alright!” Aunt Li snuffled forcefully, nodded her head, and finally, put on a forced smile and said, “Look, the good atmosphere was spoiled by this old maid, come on, let’s eat quickly, don’t mind me.”

“Aunt Li, please take a seat as well.”

Xuexue helped her to sit down on a stool, then returned to her own seat.

Everyone ate and joked around.

Especially Chuner, whose demeanor had become more cheerful, her little mouth going nonstop, telling stories about the amusing things that happened with the children in the village, making Big Bull and Xuexue burst into laughter.

Perhaps it was the good atmosphere, after a while, Aunt Li’s complexion improved as well, and she gradually showed a smile. Only then did everyone relax, realizing this old lady had not had an easy life.

The next day

Since they had arranged to go hunting in the mountain today.

Xuexue and Big Bull got up very early.

After a quick wash, they were ready to set off.

As spring had passed and early summer had arrived, the weather was getting hotter. Xuexue filled a bamboo tube with water and placed it in the basket on her back, skipping breakfast, and started walking towards the mountain with Big Bull…

Outside, it was just getting light, but inside the mountain, because of the dense trees, it felt even darker.

“My dear, be careful,” Big Bull, walking ahead, turned back to warn Xuexue.

“Alright!”

Xuexue paid close attention to the mountain path under her feet.

After walking for a while, it became much brighter not long after they had entered the mountain.

They sat down on a large boulder to rest, and Big Bull considerately asked, “My dear, are you hungry?”

“Hmm! A little.” She had woken up early and climbed such a long and rugged mountain path, expending a lot of physical energy. Xuexue rubbed her belly, which was growling with hunger, and said.

“You stay here for a while, don’t wander off, I’ll be right back,” Big Bull said, and then ran toward a forest nearby as fast as smoke.

“Hey! Big Bull, you haven’t taken your sickle yet?”

By the time Xuexue reacted, Big Bull was already out of sight.

Thinking that with his martial arts skills, he probably wouldn’t encounter any trouble, Xuexue sat at ease on the stone, taking out the bamboo tube filled with water from the basket, drinking while waiting for him to return.

“Roaaar…!”

Just as she had taken a sip of water, a ground-shaking tiger’s roar suddenly came from the nearby woods, startling Xuexue so much that she nearly threw the bamboo tube onto the ground. She turned her head to see a large tiger with a striped coat, just a few meters away, glaring fiercely at her, ready to attack at any moment.

Xuexue dared not make sudden movements. She quietly set down the bamboo tube, careful not to alarm the tiger and provoke an early attack. Silently, she took a sickle from the basket and gripped it tightly in her hand, ready to use it for self-defense.
