Chapter 248: Chapter 248: Little Prince Spends the New Year in the Countryside_1

Translator: 549690339

On the twenty-sixth of the twelfth lunar month, Mingshui Academy went on holiday, and Su Zixuan returned home from the county town. The family reunited and started preparing for the New Year celebrations.

The Little Prince did not go back to the capital for the New Year. The two teachers and ten study companions went back to their respective homes to reunite with their families.

This was the Little Prince’s first time celebrating the New Year in the countryside. The little cutie was extremely excited, wearing the new clothes Li Xiu’e had made for him. He played with three of his playmates and Huya, running and chasing each other around the village, having a great time.

Su Hu bought enough fireworks and firecrackers for all the children in the village, allowing them to set them off to their heart’s content, play around and have fun.

Su Qingluo helped her parents in marinating the cured meat and pickling the vegetables. She was sensible and well-behaved, working together with her brother, Su Zixuan, at home

She was now nine years old and had grown tall, surpassing Li Xiu’e’s chest and almost reaching her shoulder.

Li Xiu’e looked at her daughter with satisfaction and patiently taught her every step of the pickling process.

Su Qingluo learned quickly, and together with Su Zixuan, they cleaned the radishes and cabbage with well water, coated them with prepared sauce, and placed them layer by layer in the pickle jar.

Once the jar was full, they covered it with a wooden lid, sealed it, and moved on to the next jar.

Curing meat was a bit more complicated.

She contributed her homemade white wine, used it to wash the sliced pork belly, and then added the seasonings. The meat was then placed in a jar to marinate.

After a few days, the marinated meat would be taken out of the jar and hung in the courtyard to dry.

The spicy cabbage could be eaten after twenty days of pickling, just in time for Su Zixuan to bring some when he returned to the county town for school.

The process of curing and drying the meat took longer, but they had some preserved meat from earlier at home, which ensured that New Year’s Eve dinner would not be delayed.

Wang Meng couldn’t stand being idle at home. As the New Year approached and the children were on holidays, he didn’t have to supervise their martial arts training every day.

With the children happy and free, he took his quiver of arrows, along with three huge dogs, and went hunting in the mountains, treading on thick layers of snow.

In the depths of the snow-covered mountains, most wild animals were hiding in their nests for the winter. Only a few unafraid of the cold roamed the woods in search of food.

Wang Meng wandered through the woods with his three dogs, occasionally encountering groups of deer and wolves, but more often, small animals like rabbits and foxes.

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Wang Meng went hunting in the mountains again. While wandering through the woods, suddenly, the barking of his three dogs echoed through the forest.

Alarmed, Wang Meng grabbed an arrow, and followed the paw prints of his dogs.

“Woof, woof, woof!”

The three dogs, seeing reinforcements, barked even louder and more vigorously.

“Roar!”

Right in front of them, a wounded black bear stood before a small cave; seemingly, the three dogs had awakened it from hibernation. The bear, furious, had chased the dogs out of the cave and injured its right leg accidentally.

Was it a blind bear?

What luck! They would have bear’s paw for the New Year’s feast.

Overjoyed at the sight of the bear, Wang Meng instantly drew his bow and arrow without hesitation, aiming straight for the black bear’s eyes.

Hit!

The black bear roared in pain, its right eye socket bleeding. Despite that, it relentlessly charged towards Wang Meng.

Bring it on!

In the Mystic Canyon, Wang Meng had provoked three giant snakes, and endured their relentless beatings. As a result, he had developed a fearless and strong constitution. He was not afraid of the black bear and even felt a bit excited.

He threw his bow and arrow to the ground and charged at the bear with bare hands. Grabbing its two front paws, he used all his strength to swing it around with force.

The bear’s massive body crashed to the ground like a cannonball, leaving it dazed and unsteady on its feet.

“Woof, woof, woof!”

Seizing the opportunity, the three dogs rushed forward and bit into the black bear’s exposed stomach, tearing off a mouthful of bear fur.
