Chapter 2245: There Is a Wolf in the House, Keep Away From Strangers 28
While waiting for the mutton to be roasted, Xi Ying had been patiently teaching the savage to speak for almost two incense sticks of time.
After all, the savage was also a human being, and he seemed very smart. He knew all the pronunciations that Xi Ying taught him.
When the smell of mutton reached the noses of the two, Xi Ying knew that this matter could not be rushed.
Teaching the savage to speak is not a matter of one day or one night, so let's eat first.
Xi Ying first pulled a leg of lamb to the savage, and she saw that the savage's eyes lit up.
I don't know why, but Xi Ying wanted to laugh when she saw the savage's reaction.
Is it because his expression is too cute, or do you think he is too surprised? This is obviously the most common thing in human society, but it has become a treasure for him?
No matter what the reason is, Xi Ying feels very relaxed and becomes very happy unconsciously.
When she is with the savage, she doesn't have to think so much, she just needs to think about when to eat.
Although the first encounter with the savage was not very pleasant, after getting in touch with him, she realized that the savage is a very cute and simple-minded foodie.
"Thank you for the prey you gave me last night, and thank you for the little wild sheep today. Let's put it this way, if you can understand me, I will come here every noon in the future, and I will cook it for you as long as you prepare the prey." Xi Ying took a bite of meat and said.
It happened that she had taught the wild man the word "eat" before, and the wild man's eyes lit up immediately when he heard the word "eat".
"Eat!" He pronounced the word vaguely.
Xi Ying smiled and pointed at the roasted little wild sheep and said, "Then I think you agree."
The wild man stared at her, his black pupils full of seriousness: "Yeah!"
After eating, the wild man lay lazily by the stream and fell asleep soon.
Xi Ying didn't have time for an afternoon nap, she had to hurry to find medicinal herbs.
Although she had started to teach the wild man to speak, it didn't mean she could waste time.
The sooner she collected two hundred medicinal herbs, the sooner she could break away from the Zhang family.
And she had to go home early tonight, because there was still the prey that the savage gave her last night in the room.
Of course, she didn't cook it at home, nor did she cook it for the Zhang family, but for Jiang.
Xi Ying was so full after eating mutton, but Jiang was different.
Jiang worked in the fields with the men, and she also had steamed buns and vegetables outside at noon. Although she didn't have to cook at night, the eldest and second wives of Zhang often ate in the kitchen, so she didn't get to eat anything delicious.
Since Xi Ying had decided to meet the savage every day in the future to teach him to speak, it meant that she would be able to eat meat every noon in the future, and it didn't matter what she ate at night.
Then the prey had to be dispersed and given to Jiang every night to replenish her body.
So, Xi Ying returned to the Zhang family before the sun set today.
To her surprise, the Zhang family came back early today, and they all sat in the yard.
It was similar to the situation last night.
But today, the second brother who owed a lot of gambling debts did not sit far away from Zhang Tianhui, but sat next to Zhang Tianhui.
They seemed very close.
"Mom, I'm back." Xi Ying only greeted Jiang.
The other Zhang family members did not exist in her eyes.
