Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
However, those were just Su Binglan’s initial thoughts. She still had to consider what she needed to prioritize carefully. Furthermore, she had to discuss what she wanted to do with her husband.
Her thoughts were straightforward in the past since she had not recovered Lan Ruobing’s memories. Su Binglan only wanted to lead her family to become wealthy so that they could retire.
But now that she had regained some of Lan Ruobings memories, Su Binglan knew she had many more things to do. She needed to protect her brother, Luo
Jin’an, and many others.
Lin Zheng did not know his master’s thoughts at the moment. He only thought about making dumplings for dinner. Moreover, everyone would learn to make dumplings and eat them together. He knew how lively and festive the atmosphere would be.
Lin Zheng enjoyed being in a lively atmosphere. He thought it would make the food taste more delicious if more people were around. Nonetheless, he felt it would be more enjoyable if everyone ate together.
“Master,” Lin Zheng called, “I’m sure everyone will be thrilled to know we’ll be having dumpling together tonight. Besides, Aunt Liu, Aunt Song, and the others admire you.
“Uncle Wei and Uncle Lin, too. They keep talking about how warm the brick beds are. I also heard that you taught Aunt Liu and the others cooking skills. Their food tastes better than ever, especially since the condiments you gave them are perfect.
“They can even make their wild vegetables taste better than usual.” Lin Zheng did not doubt his master’s influence.
Su Binglan raised her brows and looked at him. “How do you know all that?”
“l went to help build the brick beds and checked to see if anyone faced any issues. That’s when I heard everyone’s conversations. Everyone can’t stop praising how good you are whenever they mention you, Master.”
Lin Zheng did not know why, but he was delighted whenever he heard people saying how lovely his master was.
Su Binglan found a piece of wood and said, “All right, come over and help us roll up those vines. We need them as ropes to carry the wild boar and bison back. ”
The wild boar was massive, twice the size of a domestic pig, and the same went for the bison. Su Binglan and company could have carried the wild boar back on their shoulders if it was a standard size.
Blue Two, Blue Three, and Lin Zheng were strong and could handle heavy loads. However, it would be challenging for them to carry a bison and a massive wild boar. Also, it was getting late, and they had to return for dinner.
After all, Su Binglan had promised Luo Jin’an she would return early. She knew he would be worried if she went back late.
Blue Two, Blue Three, and Lin Zheng worked together to tie up the boar and bison. They did not even need Su Binglan’s help.
She wanted to help them, but Lin Zheng hurriedly said, “Master, we can carry them. Don’t tire yourself out.”
Blue Two added, “It’s our job to help you, Master.”
They would feel humiliated if they let their master do everything.
Su Binglan did not insist on helping because she had taught them how to lift the boar and bison. Her methods allowed the trio to lift the animals with reduced force.
Soon after, the group of four carried their baskets and sacks of hawthorns on their backs while bringing the boar and bison back.
They journeyed relatively slowly to the mountain but were faster on their way back. Although they had to carry heavy loads on their way back, their footsteps were light because they had reaped plenty of rewards. Moreover, they were looking forward to having dinner.
Su Binglan had told the trio she would make something delicious with their harvests tonight. The trio was hungry and only wanted to return as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, Luo Jin’an was not in the wooden house at the foot of the mountain. Instead, he came to the door when he noticed the sky darkening. He was waiting for his wife to return because he was worried.
He finally knew what it was like to worry about someone he loved. He even wondered if Lan Ruobing felt the same way when he went to the border to guard it in the past.
Wei Cheng looked at his master’s figure and said somewhat anxiously,
“Master, if Madam knew you were outside, she would be concerned for you.”
Luo Jin’an had been looking toward Black Mountain Forest since the middle of the afternoon. Wei Cheng understood Su Binglan’s importance to his master when he looked at the man standing there silently.
Wei Cheng and the others had never seen their master so concerned about a person. They all knew how Luo Jin’an felt. After all, Luo Jin’an did not stop smiling since Su Binglan arrived. Moreover, his health and appetite had improved.
Luo Jin’an subordinates were thrilled for him when they saw him so happy. They only cared about their master’s life and did not want him to take risks anymore.
Luo Jin’an’s anxious heart finally felt at ease when he saw his wife’s figure from afar. When Su Binglan exited Black Mountain Forest, she looked toward the wooden house and saw her husband at the door.
She revealed a happy smile immediately after seeing Luo Jin’an and instinctively ran toward him. She could not describe her feelings, but her mood brightened whenever she saw him.
“Hubby!” She ran and called out to him.
Hearing the word “hubby” made Luo Jin’an’s heart soften. He looked at his wife with a gentle smile and slowly reached out his hands.
Su Binglan understood his gesture and immediately threw herself into his arms. Then Luo Jin’an hugged her tightly. He sighed in relief, knowing she was safe in his arms.
He gently stroked his wife’s hair and said lowly, “Did you encounter any dangers?”
“No.” Su Binglan shook her head and smiled. “Oh, we also harvested many things. I can make you delicious food in different ways.”
Luo Jin’an lowered his head and looked at her with a pained expression. “You’ll trouble yourself with cooking.”
Su Binglan smiled as she said softly, “It won’t be hard. Plus, I like cooking for you.”
She could not describe her feelings but enjoyed making delicious food for her husband. She also liked cooking for her people. She felt a sense of accomplishment seeing people enjoy her food.
“Silly, girl.” Although Luo Jin’an said that, a tinge of affection was apparent in his voice.
“Oh, right. Guess what we got.”
At that moment, Lin Zheng, Blue Two, and Blue Three had yet to exit Black Mountain Forest. Still, they were about to emerge.
Previously, when Su Binglan reached Black Mountain Forest’s outskirts, she noticed they were safe and could not wait to return. Therefore, she jumped from tree to tree to return to Luo Jin’an at breakneck speed.
She was afraid her husband would get worried and anxious..
