AWB Chapter 220 Bow
Chapter 220 Bow
The little guy grew up in a clan, pampered with fine clothes and delicacies, and had never eaten bamboo rats before.
The bamboo rat was roasted until it was charred, revealing its long, sharp teeth. Just looking at it was frightening; how could anyone eat it?
"What, you've never tried it before?"
"Would you like to try it?"
She tore off a small piece of meat and handed it over.
The little guy's stomach rumbled, and after hesitating for a moment, he put it in his mouth.
But she vomited it up very soon after.
The bamboo rat meat was very tough and had a gamey smell; it was impossible to swallow.
"Did you do that on purpose?"
The little guy's mouth tasted bitter.
He spat several times.
Mu Yunyun raised an eyebrow: "Before I met your father, we often didn't have enough to eat in winter. We were lucky to have bamboo rats to eat."
"Can't fill your stomach?"
"Of course, my Snow Weasel clan is only at the first level, and can only make a living by catching bamboo rats. Later, I met your father, and life became a little better."
"So that's why you forced Father to form a pact!"
That must be it!
This reason was simply unbelievable to her.
She felt deeply ashamed and looked on with disdain.
Mu Yunyun smiled and said, "I do have my reasons, but they are not for this purpose."
"What is that!" The little guy's eyes widened, not wanting to listen to her excuses at all.
Mu Yunyun changed the subject, not wanting to elaborate on these points.
"Afterwards, your father hated me so much that I dared not see him again, let alone take responsibility. I am of lowly status and know that I am not worthy of his help, so I can only stay far away."
"You're smart to know what's good for you!" she said sarcastically.
"I just didn't expect that the Night Bird Clan would worship the Qi Clan as their master. I have a close relationship with the Night Bird Clan, and we often interact through trade. That's how I ended up running into your father again."
Mu Yunyun recalled:
"At that time, you were probably already born, but your father kept it a secret. He probably didn't want to have anything to do with me. I knew that, but I just treated him with courtesy and didn't dare to overstep any boundaries, for fear of displeasing him."
"And then?" Qi Si asked.
"Then..." Mu Yunyun smiled sadly: "Then one time after drinking, I made a mistake again. When I woke up, I was even more afraid to face him. That was the last time I saw him. I never expected that I would make him pregnant again."
"You are utterly shameless!"
"I feel extremely guilty towards your father, and there is no way to make amends. But I have a clear conscience towards you. If I had known about you earlier, I would not have ignored you for so long. But now it is all too late."
Mu Yunyun squatted down in front of her, wanting to pat her head, but she lowered her hand halfway through the movement.
Seeing her action, Qi Si clenched her fist tightly in her sleeve.
Mu Yunyun sighed:
“I am an incompetent mother. Whether you hate me or resent me is understandable. It’s just that your father loves you and is afraid that you will grow up and act recklessly, so he used the wrong method.”
"It's clearly your fault! You trespassed on our territory first and injured my people!" she insisted.
"How do you know it must be my fault?" Mu Yunyun patiently explained, "The chieftain falsely accused the Nightbird Clan of embezzling offerings and almost beat them to death. How could I possibly let them off the hook?"
"Humph."
Of course she knew all of this.
She simply used this as a pretext to kill her.
But she won't say these things.
"I suppose your father didn't explain it to you either," Mu Yunyun said, smoothing things over for her.
"That's just how he's always been. He has no intention of explaining himself, and he's never willing to back down. If you go along with his temperament, you can't go against him, so naturally you won't get any credit."
Qi Si suddenly looked up.
"If you know he won't back down, why don't you give in to him?"
"He's avoiding me like the plague, how could I dare to get close to him?"
"You always have this excuse!" Qi Si turned her head away, unwilling to look at her anymore.
Helpless, Mu Yunyun simply stopped trying to persuade her.
"Well then, since you don't want to go back, we'll stay in the mountains and go back whenever we want."
"If you don't like this little bamboo rat, I'll go and hunt a pheasant for you."
After saying that, he actually stood up and walked out.
The surroundings became quiet again.
Only the crackling of the campfire remained.
Qi Si hugged her knees tightly, thinking bitterly that the female must have made an excuse to go down the mountain early.
What hunting pheasants? He just wanted to abandon her.
After all, he hadn't given her a friendly look.
If she's sensible, she naturally won't come back.
It's better if they don't come back.
She didn't want to see her at all. Who did she think she was, lecturing her like that? Did she really think she was her mother?
She would never have a mother like that!
Qi Si clenched her small hands and kicked the campfire over. Flames rolled up and burned the hem of her clothes. She was startled and tried to put out the fire, but a water blade shot over and extinguished the spreading flames instantly.
"If you're going to get angry, then get angry. Why did you have to kick the fire out?"
Qi Si tensed up all over.
The fire went out.
All that remained was the faint glow of starlight and moonlight filtering through the cave.
"Why did you come back? I don't want to see you, get out!"
"Didn't I say we were going to catch pheasants? What's wrong? Are you angry?" Mu Yunyun patted the hem of her clothes, making sure she wasn't burned too much before she felt relieved.
Qi Si wouldn't let her touch her, and withdrew again, not wanting to pay any attention to her.
"It's hot today, I'm going outside to start a fire."
Mu Yunyun ran outside and relit the fire. Qi Si didn't look at her, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up, and her heart gradually calmed down.
After the pheasant was roasted, she even graciously ate a bite.
It's definitely not because she was too hungry.
"How is it? Is it delicious?" Mu Yunyun asked.
"It tastes terrible."
The little guy said he was disgusted, but he ate with his mouth full of oil.
The fragrant pheasant was roasted until it was crispy and golden brown. It was the first time she had ever eaten such delicious roasted pheasant. She didn't know if she was just too hungry, but she finished it in no time.
Her little hands were oily, and she wanted to find a place to wipe them, but when she turned around, she saw that Mu Yunyun had already fallen asleep.
She frowned, wiped her hands haphazardly on her clothes, and moved closer to examine her.
She didn't sleep well.
His face was completely bloodless, as if he was exhausted and collapsed.
She looked at her hand again.
The wound on my hand has probably been treated with medicine and carefully wrapped with burlap strips, but it's a bit blackened from the smoke from the fire I just lit.
And the chest.
She used all her strength to inflict the knife wound there, and she didn't know how it was doing.
Lost in thought, she didn't realize that Mu Yunyun was half asleep, so she instinctively pulled her into her arms.
"You! Let me go!"
The little guy looked uncomfortable and immediately started struggling.
"Okay, okay, let Mommy hug you." Mu Yunyun rubbed her little face against hers. "Mommy is too sleepy. Let's tell Xiao Yan a story when I wake up, okay?"
Xiao Yan.
If Qi Si remembers correctly, it was her cub.
She actually mistook her for someone else!
Qi Si was furious and wanted to kill her immediately!
However, she was held tightly in her arms and couldn't break free at all!
She was so anxious that she was covered in sweat, and after a long time, she actually fell into a deep sleep.
Before going to sleep, I was thinking, "Tomorrow, I'll definitely find a chance to kill her!"
Who told her to bully people like that!
