After the gray rabbit entered, two pheasants, two birds and three rabbits broke into the trap one after another.
The spiritual spring water is also very useful!
Shen Zhiyao concluded that the presence of so many prey was definitely due to the spiritual spring water.
Seeing that it was almost done, she asked everyone to get down from the tree, catch the prey and put it in Chen Hu's back basket.
There were four rabbits and two pheasants in total. The birds were too small, so Shen Zhiyao let them go.
After taking away the prey, Shen Zhiyao used a hoe to dig the soil and filled the trap, and then took the excited Shen Baiqiu, Shen Yueya and Chen Hu to pull a lot of weeds and pick up some dry firewood to cover the basket on their backs. Strictly true.
"Huzi, you can carry all these prey back to your home later."
"Ah? Sister Zhiyao, this is not okay. You dug the trap, and these things should also be yours."
Chen Hu waved his hand quickly.
Shen Zhiyao explained: "You also know the situation of our family. If I take them back, Bai Qiuyue and I won't be able to eat a bite. When you carry them back, tell Aunt Chen that Mu Shi will let her watch how many chickens and rabbits are slaughtered. Come and eat, the three of us will go directly to your house to eat when we arrive, and you ask Aunt Chen if she agrees."
Chen Hu thought for a while and knew that what Shen Zhiyao said was the truth, so he nodded and agreed: "Sister Zhiyao, I will go back and tell my mother right now."
After watching Chen Hu go down the mountain, the three sisters Shen Zhiyao, Shen Baiqiu and Shen Yueya searched for sweet potatoes on the mountain for a while.
As the saying goes, sweet potatoes are ripe on June 6 and rotten in July and a half.
At the time when they were eating sweet potatoes, they found some, washed them in the spring water on the mountain, and ate them.
On the other side, after Chen Hu arrived home nervously, he saw Aunt Chen who was hanging clothes and shouted: "Mom, come here quickly!"
"What are you doing? Didn't you see that I was hanging the clothes to dry?" Aunt Chen didn't even look back.
Chen Hu: "Big deal!"
Aunt Chen put down the clothes that were hanging to dry. Her son had never spoken in this tone before. What big thing happened?
Aunt Chen walked to Chen Hu, and Chen Hu closed the door.
"Mysterious, what are you doing?" Aunt Chen was confused.
Chen Hu took out the dry firewood and weeds in the basket on his back. After a while, rabbits and pheasants came into Aunt Chen's sight.
"This, this is..." Aunt Chen took a deep breath.
Chen Hu immediately told her about following Shen Zhiyao up and down the mountain to catch these prey, and also told her what Shen Zhiyao said.
"I agree, of course I agree! This is a big advantage for us." Aunt Chen pushed Chen Hu without saying a word: "Go and tell Zhiyao and ask her to bring Bai Qiu and Yue Ya when the time comes."
After saying this, Aunt Chen happily put away the prey and prepared to tidy up the clothes after drying them.
Chen Hu found Sister Shen Zhiyao on the mountain and told her about having evening food at his house.
Shen Zhiyao had already expected that Aunt Chen would agree. She went down the mountain early today to see how Aunt Chen made those chickens and rabbits.
When she reached the intersection between Shen's house and Chen's house, Shen Zhiyao saw a familiar man standing at the door of Shen's house.
"Bai Qiu, is that fourth uncle?"
Shen Zhiyao guessed the man's identity.
Shen Baiqiu looked over and nodded affirmatively: "Yes."
Shen Zhiyao seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Isn't this Shen Sili the man she saw in front of Yihong Building yesterday, the man who was thrown out by the old bustard?
Over there, Shen Sili also saw them and walked directly towards them.
"Are you Zhiyao?" Shen Sili first looked at Shen Zhiyao, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
His eldest brother's biological daughter is so beautiful.
"Fourth uncle." Shen Zhiyao called him lightly, disgusted with the way he looked at her.
Shen Baiqiu sensed something sensitively and stood in front of Shen Zhiyao, trying to block Shen Sili's sight.
Seeing this, Shen Sili put away his overly direct gaze, looked down at Shen Yueya next to Shen Zhiyao, and said in greeting:
"Long time no see, the moon has grown so big."
After a pause, he added: "Fourth uncle bought you some candy. Yue Ya goes with fourth uncle to get it."
Shen Yueya didn't move, only looked up at Shen Zhiyao, and said in a childlike voice: "Sister, when my fourth uncle came back before, he ignored me and my brother when he saw us, and he never bought anything for me."
I heard Brother Huzi say that caramel candies are very expensive, so it’s strange that Fourth Uncle bought her caramel candies.
Shen Zhiyao squeezed Shen Yueya's little hand approvingly and said, "Yueya, my sister will teach you something, if something goes wrong, there will be a monster."
After the words fell, Shen Zhiyao looked at Shen Sili with a sarcastic smile: "We eat braised vegetables at home all day long, but my fourth uncle actually has money to buy candy. It's really chilling to hold ice in his arms."
"We have something else to do, so we won't chat with Fourth Uncle. Fourth Uncle, please do as you please."
Not wanting to say anything more, Shen Zhiyao walked towards Aunt Chen's house.
"Yueya, while my fourth uncle is at home, you should follow your sister every step of the way and don't have any contact with him alone."
Shen Sili was kicked out by the old bustard of Yihong Mansion because he had no money. Now that he is so attentive to Yue Ya when he comes back, what does he want to do to Yue Ya?
Thinking of some kind of speculation, Shen Zhiyao's eyes fell coldly.
"Sister, does fourth uncle want to harm Yue Ya?" Shen Baiqiu looked worried.
Shen Zhiyao told them what she saw in the county town yesterday, "So, you must be on guard against others."
But Shen Baiqiu and Shen Yueya said in unison: "Where is Yihong Building? Does it sell food?"
"Uh...after dinner, sister will tell you." Shen Zhiyao stopped talking when he saw Aunt Chen's door.
"Sister Zhiyao, Bai Qiu, Yue Ya, come in quickly." Chen Hu saw them and trotted to open the courtyard door.
Aunt Chen, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the sound and hurriedly raised her head and stretched her neck to look outside: "Is Zhiyao here?"
Wiping her hands, Aunt Chen immediately greeted her.
"Aunt Chen." The third sister walked up to her.
Aunt Chen exclaimed and said with a smile on her face: "You can just play around for now, Aunt Chen will prepare the meal soon."
"Aunt Chen, let me help you." Shen Zhiyao's hands were itchy and she wanted to make delicious food.
Aunt Chen shook her head with a smile: "No, no, I have two girls to help."
"Auntie, I am very interested in cooking and have talent. Bai Qiu and Yue Ya both said that the chicken fungus I fried was delicious. Please let me stay in the kitchen."
"Okay, let's go." Aunt Chen said nothing more and took her to the kitchen.
Chen Hu handed Shen Baiqiu and Shen Yueya to his younger brother Chen Qiang. After watching the three of them discuss catching bugs to feed the chickens, Chen Hu continued to chop firewood.
There are seven people in Aunt Chen's family, including her and Carpenter Chen, three sons and two daughters.
Back then, Aunt Chen and his wife were also bullied miserably by Carpenter Chen's parents. Later, the couple had a ruthless quarrel and separated from their parents, and their lives became easier.
At this time, Carpenter Chen and their eldest son Chen Zhu were doing carpentry work in a separate room at the back of their house.
Two daughters, Chen Cuihua and Chen Chunhua, one is lighting the fire in the kitchen, and the other is cleaning the chickens and rabbits that have been dressed.
