Huo Yao caught the chicken and walked over a minute later.
“...”
After some time, Huo Xiang finally managed to gather his thoughts as he looked at the chicken in his little sister’s hands. “Little Sister, you’re brilliant.”
Huo Yao only raised her brow with a confident look on her face and walked over to the kitchen.
Huo Xiang did not follow behind her. Instead, he contemplated for two seconds before he raised his head and looked at the wicker basket his little sister had just thrown aside and walked towards it.
He reached his hand out and wanted to lift the wicker basket and throw it out just like his little sister did. However... Huo Xiang went stunned when he realized how heavy it was.
Although it was not super heavy, how did his little sister throw it so effortlessly? That too, with just one hand!
[PFFFT! What’s Lucky Charm up to?]
[I think he is trying to emulate what his little sister just did.]
[Lucky Charm, hurry up and toss it like your little sister.]
Huo Xiang turned to look at the camera. He reached his other hand to hug the wicker basket as though nothing happened and headed over to the spot where the rest of them were stacked. Then he somewhat clumsily replaced it.
“Right where it belongs,” said Huo Xiang before straightening his back and going to the kitchen. “Oh, it’s my little sister’s first time killing a chicken.”
[HAHAHAHA! That was hilarious. I bet Lucky Charm wanted to throw the wicker basket just now.]
[Right where it belongs? Big brother, why bother creating this image if it’s going to end up collapsing?]
[PFFFT! What a turn of events.]
The kitchen was large. Since it only had earthen stoves and no gas, they could use only firewood.
Huo Yao was making a fire when Huo Xiang got to the kitchen.
Huo Xiang looked at the slaughtered chicken by the side before walking up to the stove and squatted down next to his sister. “Let me start the fire.”
Huo Yao raised her head and glanced at him. “Do you know how to do it?”
Huo Xiang instantly went quiet.
[I can sense how demoralized Lucky Charm is, even through the screen.]
[Little Sister: Do you know how to do it? Lucky Charm: I...]
[It must have really hurt his feelings.]
[This is unbelievable. Why is his little sister so good with all this work?]
[She must be a country b.u.mpkin.]
Before long, the water in the pot started boiling. Huo Yao took the basin with the dead chicken and placed it inside before ladling hot water to pour onto the chicken.
The other three groups finally caught their chicken. Everyone went quiet when they came back and saw that Huo Xiang’s team had already started to defeather their prize.
Shen Si gathered her thoughts and said enviously, “I wish I had such a capable little sister too.”
Yin Hai glanced at Shen Si. “In your dreams, anything is possible.”
[HAHAHA! Uncle Yin, that really hurt.]
[Sisi’s cousin: Although I’m not an all-arounder, I’m adorable.]
[Nannies can do everything.]
Yin Hai checked the time on his wrist.w.a.tch before he exclaimed. “Darn. We have to do all the dishes today.”
Huo Yao had already plucked all the chicken feathers and was rinsing the chicken under a tap before placing it in a clean basin.
Mission accomplished.
Yin Hai and his partner panicked. They hurriedly picked up the knife and prepared to slaughter the chicken. They did not want to end up last.
Xiao Moling and his little brother walked to the side quietly as well.
Only Shen Si and her cousin stood where they were and looked at each other awkwardly.
Her cousin lowered her eyes and looked at the chicken in her hand. Then she walked up to Huo Xiang to ask cautiously in a polite tone. “Lucky, mind helping us?”
