Hearing his third brother’s words, Li Chenze glanced at the bamboo baskets they carried and exclaimed in disbelief, "Third Brother, you have caught so much prey!"
"Well, we got lucky," Li Chenmo replied nonchalantly.
Noticing Han Yuheng and Zhang Ermu’s gazes fixed on the bamboo baskets, Lu Jueyu said, "Eldest Brother, if you need bait, feel free to come by our house. We used different bait for our traps, so we could catch a variety of prey."
Li Chenze’s eyes lit up when he heard this, and said, "Then I will visit your house later. Thank you, Third Sister-in-law."
As the sun began to set, Li Chenmo said, "Brother, the children are waiting at home. We will head back now."
"Alright."
Before leaving, Li Chenmo took three rabbits from his wife’s basket, each weighing around 2.5 kilograms. Handing them to his brother, he said, "Brother, share these rabbits with Brother Ermu and the team leader. We caught plenty of prey today and can’t finish it all."
Since sharing was a common practice in their family, Li Chenze didn’t refuse. Handing the rabbits to Zhang Ermu, he said, "Third Brother, we are planning to head back to the mountain after the Second Brother’s wedding banquet. Would you like to join us?"
After considering for a moment, Li Chenmo replied, "I will decide when the time comes."
"Alright, I will let you know a day in advance."
"Good."
After parting ways, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu returned home, while Li Chenze and the others delivered the ingredients to Li Lingyun’s house.
Upon arrival, Li Chenze knocked on the backyard gate and called, "Second Brother, it’s me."
Not long after, the gate opened, and Li Lingyun appeared with his hands and feet covered in dirt.
Seeing them bring another cart of ingredients, he widened the gate and said, "Brother, you have brought back so many grains and vegetables. It’s more than enough for the banquet. Why not share some with Brother Ermu and the team leader?"
Zhang Ermu and Han Yuheng began unloading the sacks into the house, while Li Chenze said, "Don’t worry, I have already talked to them. These ingredients are for us. After your wedding banquet, we will go to the mountain and gather more. Each of us will get three carts of grains and vegetables."
Raising an eyebrow, Li Lingyun said, "Since you have already made arrangements, then I won’t refuse. Just let me know when you are going. I will join you and help."
"Good. Let’s finish unloading these things first. Tomorrow, we still have a lot of work to do, so we should rest early tonight," Li Chenze said as he carried two sacks of grain into the house.
