Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife-Chapter 1522: Unexpected Surprise

As Dong Li and Chen Jianmin walked toward the Chen family’s house, they noticed the villagers checking the blood stain and one person running to the production team’s office.

Turning his head, Dong Li exchanged glances with his Junior brother and nodded. The two of them hastened their steps. When they reached Chen Jianmin’s house, the villagers and neighbors were already waiting for them outside the fence.

Inside the house, Chen Gang was talking with the production team’s staff. Since Han Yuheng was visiting the brigade office today, the one who came was An Xuyuan.

"Vice team leader, even if my sons trained with Dong Li under Brother Chenmo’s guidance, it’s still impossible for them to kill a wild boar," Chen Gang said.

An Xuyuan took a sip of the tea and replied, "Comrade Chen Gang, we received the report. Whether it’s true or false, we only need to wait until they come back."

When they received the report, none of the production team’s staff believed it.

But An Xuyuan recalled how strong and skilled Li Chenmo was. With him personally teaching the children, there might be a possibility they had really killed a young wild boar. Therefore, he made this trip to visit the Chen family.

Not long after, they heard the commotion outside. Placing down the teacup, he stood up and said, "Comrade Chen Gang, they might be back. Let’s have a look."

After he said this, he walked out of the house. The moment he saw the boys carrying something on a stretcher, he narrowed his eyes.

He didn’t doubt their capability. But he thought that, at most, they had hunted a young wild boar. He never expected them to manage to kill a mature one.

As he walked over, Dong Li and the Chen brothers placed the stretcher down. Seeing the production team staff, Dong Li asked, "Uncle An, what brings you here?"

Meeting his innocent gaze, An Xuyuan chuckled. This boy was similar to his adopted father. Both liked to pretend to be dumb.

"Dong Li, I received a report that you and your friends killed a wild boar. So I came to see if it was true," An Xuyuan replied.

Hearing this, Dong Li nodded and said, "Uncle An, the report is only half true. This wild boar was not killed by me and my friends."

"Oh? Then who killed it?" An Xuyuan asked.

"This wild boar was killed by Jianmin alone. I only helped him carry it back," Dong Li replied with a smile.

The moment he said this, everyone was shocked, especially Chen Gang and Wu Yahui.

The two of them thought that the one who killed it must have been Dong Li, and their son only helped, so they hadn’t thought about the possibility that he might be injured.

But upon learning that their son had killed it alone, they quickly walked over to him.

They checked Chen Jianmin from head to toe while Wu Yahui asked, "Ah Min, are you hurt anywhere? You foolish child, why did you take such a risk? If something had happened to you, what would your parents do, ah?"

Seeing how panicked and anxious his parents were, Chen Jianmin said guiltily, "Mother, Father, I’m sorry for making you worry. But the situation was urgent. If I hadn’t killed it, these sisters might have lost their lives."

After hearing his words, everyone finally noticed Han Liling and Han Lihua. Seeing their swollen eyes, they realized the two of them had been crying earlier.

Noticing everyone’s gaze on them, Han Liling nodded and explained, "Uncle Chen, Aunt Chen, it was thanks to Brother Jianmin that my sister and I were able to come back alive."

An Xuyuan observed the children for a moment before he said, "Untie the wild boar."

Following his order, the production staff cut the dried vines and removed the leaves. The moment they saw the long tusks of the wild boar, the villagers gasped. It was a fully grown male wild boar.

An Xuyuan walked closer and checked the wounds on the boar’s body. Even if he was not a trained soldier, he had learned some basic combat skills when he was young. So, he noticed that three types of weapons had been used to kill the boar.

He checked the wound on the boar’s neck and asked, "Jianmin, what weapon did you use to kill this boar?"

"I used a stick with one end sharpened and a dagger given by Uncle Li," Chen Jianmin replied.

"There is a wound caused by an arrow here. Who shot it?" An Xuyuan asked again.

"Oh, that was Ah Li. Uncle Li made a bow for him, and we often hunt small animals using it," Chen Jianmin said.

"Can I see the bow?" he asked again.

Hearing this, Dong Li hesitated for a moment before handing over the compound bow. When An Xuyuan saw it, surprise flashed in his eyes. Compared to a normal bow, there were several additional parts.

He pulled the string and was surprised at how little strength it took to fully draw it. He looked at the wheels added at both ends of the bow and the two additional strings.

With this kind of bow, even children could use it. After inspecting it for a while, he returned it to Dong Li and said, "This is a good bow."

Dong Li took the bow and said with a hint of pride, "It is." frёewebηovel.cѳm

Seeing that he had finished asking questions, one of the villagers asked, "Vice team leader, what should we do with this wild boar? According to the rules, half of the hunted animal should be given to the production team."

Hearing this, the rest of the villagers nodded and stared at the wild boar, already thinking about what dishes they could make with the meat.

When Chen Gang and his wife saw this, they felt it was unfair. Their son had risked his life to kill the boar and saved two lives. Yet instead of being praised or thanked, the villagers were eyeing their meat.
