My husband is a sick cat

Seeing that his father did not understand what he meant, Song Xin quickly explained.

"No, this is the fish that Miss Lu brought from the mountains, from Qilin Mountain!"

When Song Xin explained this, Song Tong was stunned. Then he looked carefully at the fish in front of him. It seemed that it was indeed a little different from ordinary fish, but he still couldn't believe it.

You know, there were twelve people who entered the mountain at the beginning, but only eleven people came back in the end for these few fish, and half of them were injured.

"Are you sure she brought him from Qilin Mountain?"

Looking at his father's serious expression, Song Xin suddenly became unsure. At this moment, Qi Chengji had already walked over, and Ji Yun from the back room also walked out.

"Is it really a fish from Qilin Mountain?"

"What's so special about this fish?"

The two people asked different questions, but their focus fell on the fish.

"I, I didn't ask, she didn't say anything, she just gave me the fish and left."

"Let me see."

Qi Chengji said that he was going to take the fish in Song Xin's hand and check it out. Although he didn't know why the family cared so much about the fish, he didn't know there were fish in Qilin Mountain.

But before he could get the fish, a hand stretched out from behind him took the fish over. He stood in the sun, holding the fish and looking at it carefully.

It was Zhuo Qing who took the fish. After he came back from the back mountain, he had been waiting for Lu Jian to come out in the room upstairs, intending to see where Lu Jian lived so that he could check easily.

But he didn't expect Lu Jian to come back so early, and strangely, he didn't bring much prey. Instead, he carried a basket of grass on his back and two fish, which puzzled him.

When they left, he was about to follow them into the city, but when he went downstairs, he saw Song Xin running to the backyard carrying a fish. He suddenly realized something and followed him.

Qi Chengji and Song Tong's family of three looked at Zhuo Qing inexplicably, not quite understanding what he could see by holding the fish like this, but they soon figured it out.

"This fish is indeed a fish from Qilin Mountain."

Zhuo Qing let out a heavy breath, and when he said this, his tone was a little weird.

"Really?"

"you sure?"

Different tone but the same question.

"I am sure that I have seen fish brought out of Naqilin Mountain. If nothing else, the fact that there is no fishy smell on this fish can prove this."

Different from the surprise and joy of Song Tongtong's family, Qi Chengji looked a little wrong. He stared at Zhuo Qing and said, "Where have you seen him?"

As a doctor who has also lived in this post for more than ten years, Qi Chengji has naturally heard what Song Tong said about the fish in Qilin Mountain. He just didn't think of it for a moment, but now that he thinks about it, he suddenly feels something is wrong.

Because according to Song Tong, he had only seen the fish in Qilin Mountain once, and it was sent to the palace, and he had never seen it again since then.

In fact, the royal family had sent people to secretly enter Qilin Mountain several times in the early years, but each time they only left with some ordinary prey.

He didn't have much fondness for the royal people, so he had never communicated with those people. He just felt puzzled that those wild game could be hunted in other places, so why did the palace always send people here to hunt here every year.

At that time, Song Tong swore that these people must have gone into the mountains to find fish, but he didn't quite believe it because he had never seen them before.

In the past ten years, the royal family has not sent anyone to Qilin Mountain anymore, and these things have been gradually forgotten.

Zhuo Qing looked stunned for a moment, then looked at Qi Chengji and said calmly: "In the palace, I entered the palace when I was very young."

This palace is that palace. Several people present understood it and were a little surprised. After all, after Zhuo Qing came here, he said that he was a ranger, was injured and passed by here, and wanted to live here for a while. Recuperate.

Zhuo Qing was indeed injured at that time. Zhang Qiang helped him in, and Qi Chengji was responsible for the treatment.

During the time he lived here, Zhuo Qing didn't like to talk much. He spent most of his time in his room and occasionally practiced swordplay in the backyard. Unlike him, Zhang Qiang was a talker.

When I lived here, except for occasionally going to the mountains to hunt or go to the city to buy some things, most of the time I would bring Qi Chengji or the Song family together to brag about various things about the two of them wandering around the world, so they never doubted the two. The identity of a human ranger.

"You're not a ranger?"

Zhuo Qing looked at Qi Chengji. Although he didn't like to talk, he had a chatterbox around him. He also knew that Qi Chengji didn't like the royal people. Although he felt that there was no need to explain his affairs to others, Qi Chengji was still his benefactor. , he didn't want to feel a knot in his heart.

"I am, I have nothing to do with the royal family."

After hearing this, Qi Chengji relaxed a little, turned around and left without saying anything more.

Seeing Qi Chengji leaving, the Song family didn't say much. They just looked at the fish in Zhuo Qing's hand, and Zhuo Qing handed it over knowingly.

"It is best to cook and eat this fish within three hours of death. The longer it takes, the worse the taste will be."

Hearing this, Ji Yun immediately took the fish and hurried to the kitchen. She had an idea in her mind, she wanted to taste the taste of this fish that could make even the emperor miss her.

On the other side, Lu Jian has returned home.

From the moment they entered the city, everyone looked surprised when they saw the grass on her back, but Lu Jian didn't care at all.

After entering the door, Zhou and Tang Ying were also amazed at the big bundle of grass. They didn't expect Lu Jian to actually cut the grass.

Lu Jian opened the grass and hung it to dry on the steps of the reverse house. This would prevent the grass from rotting due to the high temperature and could feed it for several days.

When Lu Jian was drying grass, Zhou took some and threw it to the two sheep who kept barking when they saw the grass, and then threw a lot to the horses.

Tang Ying sorted out the bows and arrows that Lu Jian had put aside and took them to the warehouse in the east wing.

When he came out again, he saw Lu Jian taking out two rabbits, two pheasants and the fish from the basket on his back, and put them directly into the kitchen.

"Why did you hit so many?"

He thought that Lu Jian came back so early and only brought grass and fish, but he didn't expect that there were pheasants and hares as well.

"It's not much, I just hit it casually."

Lu Jian had already come out of the kitchen when he replied, while Mrs. Zhou washed her hands and entered the kitchen, ready to cook the fish.

Seeing Mrs. Zhou enter the kitchen, Lu Jian quickly walked to Tang Ying and whispered: "My dear husband, I met a strange person in the mountains today."

Tang Ying was a little helpless when she heard the name "little husband". She was obviously older than Lu Jian, but she would always call herself this from time to time, and occasionally call her by name or husband.

But after hearing what Lu Jian said, his expression became serious: "Go to the study and talk."

When the two entered the study, Mrs. Zhou saw it from the window and didn't pay attention. She just concentrated on cooking and couldn't starve her son and daughter-in-law.
