When Chu Molin and the others returned to the bamboo hut, Qin Xue saw that he was carrying several spiritual mice in his hand. Had they gone hunting?
"Xue'er, did you sleep well?" Chu Molin put the spiritual mice at the front door of the bamboo hut. It was Xue Ling who took him to catch them, saying it was good for his wife, so he followed along. And indeed, these little creatures were not easy to catch. If it weren't for his previous experience of catching wild game when sampling outside, he wouldn't have been able to catch them at all.
It's also because Xue Ling said it was beneficial to Qin Xue, otherwise, he wouldn't have put in so much effort to catch them. And Chu Molin wasn't aware that they had been eating the ones caught by Xue Ling all this time, otherwise, he wouldn't have worked so hard to find those little things.
