In one afternoon, Niucaohua harvested nine rabbits and six pheasants.
They were all killed in one blow, and the stones hit their fatal positions accurately.
Niu Caohua strung them together with a vine and carried them slowly down the mountain. With so much harvested this time, there will definitely be more to eat. Tomorrow morning, Daddy Niu Dadu can ask her to take her to the market. There are many restaurants and wealthy families there, and they will definitely be interested in these game meats.
I don’t know what the current prices are and how much these can be exchanged for.
The family is short of everything now, even the brown rice is about to run out. Then the money will be exchanged to buy more things.
Have a full meal!
When she thought of this, Niu Caohua's happy eyes almost narrowed into slits.
"What does this smell like?" When she walked to a place, Niu Caohua suddenly smelled a familiar smell, which seemed to be mushrooms, but after looking around, she didn't see any familiar mushrooms.
Those colorful mushrooms, who knows what will happen if you eat them!
"Chichichichi~" A voice suddenly came from above her head. Niu Caohua looked up and saw that it was a little squirrel jumping up and down the tree, wary of the humans below.
It turned out that this was a huge red pine tree, covered with pine cones, each of which was very big. Some fell to the ground, and the pine cones were exposed.
Pine nuts!
This is a good thing, rich in fat and sweet in taste. It is one of Cowgrass Flower's favorite snacks. I used to buy it often.
There are also large white mushrooms growing on these red pine trees, which are similar to the oyster mushrooms I used to eat. The smell I smelled before came from them.
Looking at the pheasant in her hand, thinking of the deliciousness of the chicken stewed with mushrooms, Niu Caohua swallowed her saliva, then threw the pheasant and rabbit in her hand, and climbed up the tree like a nimble monkey.
She fastened her two feet and one hand tightly to the tree, pulled the mushroom off with the other hand, and put it into the basket behind her.
After picking a basket full, the satisfied cowgrass flower was willing to climb down from the tree.
The weight of a single mushroom is not heavy, but the total weight of the basket is not light. Plus the pheasants and hares we just shot, even the Hercules Cowherd will be very tired.
Niu Caohua could only look at the pine cone on the tree with regret, thinking about coming back next time.
Still walking on a small road, but this time Niu Caohua took a detour and changed direction to find Daddy Niu Dadu.
The thing is too heavy and I'm tired of dragging it. Let dad help me.
"Dad~" From a distance, I saw a big cow squatting in the ground pulling grass, facing the loess and back to the sky.
This piece of land has been carefully cared for by Daddy Niu Dadu. The soil is soft and there is not a single weed.
The rice in the field has begun to turn yellow, and the ears of rice are so heavy that they bend down under the weight.
Autumn waves swayed, and the rice swayed in the wind, making a rustling sound.
Hearing his daughter's voice, Niu Dadu raised his head in surprise. When he saw what his daughter was carrying, his usually expressionless face showed great fluctuations.
It seemed to be surprise, fear, or something else, but the expression disappeared in a flash, and soon returned to its original simplicity, making it difficult to see clearly.
Niu Caohua didn't notice the expression on her father's belly. She dragged these things, her hands were scratched, and her whole body ached, especially the two hands that were holding the pheasants and hares, and she wanted to throw them away halfway. But when I think about it, I feel it’s too bad, so I can only grit my teeth and persevere until now.
Niu Dadu didn't care about anything else. He quickly ran over and took the things from his daughter's hand. Then he took the basket and held his daughter's little hand. When he touched the warm hand, he couldn't help but tighten his hand.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Niu Caohua's hand was squeezed tightly, feeling a little strange, so she raised her head and looked at her father.
"Caohua, you..." Niu Dadu hesitated, wanting to say something but not knowing how to say it.
"Dad, I fainted before. I met a very beautiful fairy in my dream. She nodded my head, and I woke up. When I woke up, I found that I had become very strong. I threw a stone and I woke up. I hit the rabbit, isn’t it particularly powerful!”
Niu Caohua knew that since she had brought back so many prey today, her father Niu Dadu would definitely be suspicious and would most likely think that she was possessed by a monster.
Ancient people were very superstitious, and if they thought they were evil spirits, they might be burned to death.
In order to avoid dying unexpectedly, he simply settled the matter himself. Where there are monsters, there are gods. Why not use the power of gods to give a reasonable explanation for his great strength.
Sure enough, after hearing Niu Caohua's words, Niu Dadu's tight body instantly relaxed, and the hand that was squeezing her daughter relaxed.
He looked at his daughter's red and swollen hands and her staggering steps. He didn't say anything, he just picked her up and said, "Go back."
After all, Niu Dadu is a person who has worked in the fields for a long time. He has a lot of strength, carrying so many things, and holding his eight-year-old daughter, and still walks easily.
"Dong dong dong~" The door of the yard was knocked. Before Xiao Cui'er could react, Niu Xiaodi, who was dancing in the yard, jumped up and ran to open the door.
He was a short man, so he stood on tiptoe and struggled to open the door bolt.
"Sister! Daddy." Outside the yard stood his father Niu Dadu and his sister Niu Caohua, but Niu Xiaodi only had his sister in his eyes, smiling at him.
"Routu!" Niu Xiaodi, who had eaten rabbit meat once, saw what his father was carrying, and his eyes brightened even more.
Mother Xiao Cuier also ran over, looking at the meat with bright eyes and swallowing saliva unconsciously.
"Mom, let's eat chicken stewed with mushrooms tonight!" Niu Caohua slipped from his father's arms and touched his younger brother's yellow hair with a proud look on his face.
There is so much food to eat now that I can pick it up myself. I have eaten rabbit for lunch, so let’s change the taste in the evening.
"Chicken stewed with mushrooms." Niu Xiaodi's mouth was already watering before he even ate it.
There was no clock, and I didn’t know what time it was, but the sun hadn’t set yet, and the chimneys in the village hadn’t emitted smoke yet. It was probably still early, and it wasn’t yet time for dinner.
He ordered his father, Niu Dadu, to process the fattest chicken, and his mother and brother to process the mushrooms. Niu Caohua sat on the stool and lay down to rest.
She couldn't do it without resting. Although her father came back with her in his arms later, dragging so many things before really put the minor's body through too much, and she was a little exhausted. Now she doesn't want to move at all.
There are male and female pheasants, and they are easily distinguished by their appearance.
The rooster's feathers are brightly colored and its tail feathers are long and beautiful.
The hen looks very ordinary.
This is a super big rooster with beautiful feathers and a bright red crest.
