She tied up the two chickens and started making fried noodles again.
She really didn't want to do the work in the fields anymore, so just let the vegetables grow.
I haven’t picked any fruits on the mountain yet, I’m waiting for an opportunity for my mother to come in and do it.
She is only nine years old now, and after walking for another day, just picking up eggs feels a little difficult.
After frying two pots of fried noodles, I packed about ten kilograms for Uncle Yongchang's house, and also packed some biscuits and dried meat before I came out of the space.
Li Wenxiu gave the bag of fried noodles to Yongchang's wife, and whispered in her ear:
"Guilan, we bought these things before we fled. We were with the villagers and didn't dare to take them out.
Now there are just a few of us who know the basics. You can take these fried noodles and feed them to your family every day to supplement your nutrition. "
Seeing that she was about to refuse, he patted her hand and said, "Don't refuse. Taking good care of your health is better than anything else. We are just like a family, so we don't have to worry about these things."
Yongchang's wife was moved and said: "Sister-in-law, I really don't know what to say."
"No need to say anything," Li Wenxiu smiled, patted her hand, and went back to sleep.
Li Yunze, Ye Mingxuan, and Ye Mingzhe hid under the quilt and ate a large bag of food that Ye Yutong had just given them.
There are boiled eggs, salted duck eggs, flatbreads, dried meat, apples and pears.
After getting along with him for this period of time, she no longer had to guard against Li Yunze. This guy was like a man, and he might have sensed something a long time ago.
He didn't talk much anyway, he ate whatever he was given and never asked where things came from. Ye Yutong felt that he could give him some trust.
She kept hiding things from him, and if she didn't tell him that she was tired, he would definitely feel uncomfortable too.
He thinks that the whole family is hiding it from him and does not regard him as a family member.
Now Ye Yutong would give his two brothers a share of whatever they wanted to eat, but she didn't take out anything too rare.
Li Yunze ate double yolk eggs, double yolk salted duck eggs, as well as sour and sweet apples, and large pears with plenty of water. He felt that this little lady of his was definitely not simple.
There should be a treasure in the hand that can hold something, like the legendary Sumi Mustard Seed.
It seems that he will keep a close eye on this little wife in the future. If someone discovers that she has such a magical treasure, it will really make people in the world go crazy, and it will also lead to death.
He glanced at his two uncles who were eating. After he recovered, it was time to teach them some self-defense skills.
And Tongtong, you can practice if you have nothing to do. If you are discovered by someone, you can at least hold on to a few moves and wait for him to come to rescue you.
How about buying a few more children? When they get there, they will be taught martial arts so that they can protect Tongtong in the future.
He thought this was a good idea and planned to see if there were any young people suitable for martial arts training on the road. If there were any, he would take them with him.
However, this matter must be discussed with his mother-in-law and uncle first. He cannot make his own decision. He also needs to ask Tongtong if he is willing?
Ye Yutong didn't know it yet, but her little husband was already thinking about helping her find a guard. She was sleeping soundly and snoring.
The night passed safely, and as soon as the day dawned, the adults began to cook and pack things.
The children were looking for edible wild vegetables nearby. Ye Mingxuan took out his kitchen knife, sharpened it, and put it away carefully.
Ye Yutong felt that now was a good opportunity. She was going to release the two roosters for everyone to catch and make soup for them.
She said hello to her mother first. Li Wenxiu felt something was wrong. The chickens in the fairy's house were so fat. How could they not look like pheasants?
"Mom, people are starving to death, who cares where the chickens come from? Besides, no matter what they think, they can't think that we released them," Ye Yutong said.
Li Wenxiu thought about it. No matter who caught the pheasant, he would only think that he was lucky. Who would have thought that Tongtong released it?
He smiled and said: "Okay then, you find two smaller ones, and I will cover for you."
Lin Yutong walked further away, quietly released the two chickens, and shouted: "Big brother, second brother, be safe, come here quickly."
The three of them thought something had happened to them, so they put down the things in their hands and ran over there.
Ye Yutong pretended to be excited and said: "Brother, there are two pheasants here."
"Pheasant? Where is it? Where is it?" Ye Mingzhe asked happily.
"Over there." Ye Yutong pointed not far away.
Yongchang and the others also heard Ye Yutong's shouts, and they all put down their things and ran over.
As soon as I saw it, I found a pheasant. Regardless of men, women, old or young, everyone swarmed on it.
The two poor roosters were caught by everyone in a short while.
Yongchang held two chickens and said excitedly: "Why are these chickens so fat? One weighs five or six pounds."
Li Wenxiu smiled and said: "There are many bugs in the woods. This chicken will grow fat as long as there is no shortage of food."
"What my sister-in-law said makes sense." Wen Cai agreed.
Ye Yutong saw that they were always talking there and didn't say how to deal with it, so he reminded:
"Uncle Yongchang, Uncle Wencai, why don't we kill this chicken and eat it? It's not easy for us to carry two chickens with us when we are on the road."
The main reason is that this chicken is too conspicuous. If someone sees it, they will definitely come and snatch it.
Yongchang and Wencai said cheerfully: "Kill it, eat it now to save yourself from being remembered."
The two roosters weighed about ten pounds, and a large iron pot of chicken soup was stewed. The water was mixed by several families.
Smelling the fragrant chicken soup, both adults and children began to salivate in their mouths.
The few refugees from yesterday have left, and now they are the only family in the woods.
But everyone was afraid that someone would come over again, so they ate it immediately after the stew was finished.
Mantang's family was a little embarrassed, even though Mantang and his sister helped catch the chickens.
But these two chickens were not caught by them, but by Ping An and Uncle Wencai, but they were here to eat the meat and drink the soup.
Maodan's family didn't help much, so Maodan's grandmother smiled and said, "We won't eat any meat, just a bowl of soup. This will take up all your family's money."
Li Wenxiu said with a smile: "Auntie, what are you talking about? There weren't a few children who helped catch the chicken just now. Ping An and Wencai couldn't catch it. Everyone contributed, so this chicken should be eaten together."
Yongchang's wife also smiled and said: "That's right, according to what my aunt said, we didn't do anything, so we can't eat meat anymore?"
Ye Yutong waved his little hand and said boldly: "You're welcome, let's all eat, one bowl for each person, Aunt Xianglan, let's start the meal!"
Xianglan, who was holding the spoon, said happily: "Okay, just listen to Tongtong, one bowl per person."
"Hurry and bring your bowls and ask Aunt Xianglan to serve us the meat." As soon as Ye Yutong finished speaking, the children had already run over with their bowls.
There were five of them, including adults and children, a total of twenty-one people. Each person filled a bowl, but there was nothing left in the pot.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal. This kind of meal with soup and meat had never been eaten like this even during the Chinese New Year. Not to mention years like this.
This is all thanks to Tongtong. If she hadn't discovered these two pheasants, how would everyone have been so lucky?
