He glanced at the boys and said, "Mantang and the eldest brother are a bit older. If you start practicing now, you may have to suffer a little more, but you two have bones that are suitable for practicing martial arts. If you are not afraid of hardship, work hard and defend yourself." No problem for sure.
As for you guys, if you practice hard, you will definitely be able to surpass me. By then, let alone wild boars, even tigers will be no problem. "
After everyone heard this, they were all gearing up and wanted to start practicing now.
Ye Yutong felt that these children might have been deceived. How could practicing martial arts be so simple?
Suddenly I remembered that Qing Gong has been lost in modern times. If it was so simple, how could no one know it?
Li Yunze told her that Qinggong was simple, but now why does he feel a little evasive on his expression at that time? Could it be that he was deceiving her?
Thinking of this, Ye Yutong looked at him calmly.
Li Yunze noticed her gaze and asked with a smile: "Tongtong, what's wrong?"
"It's okay." Ye Yutong said with a smile.
Alas, hard work doesn't mean you have to practice. In such troubled times, it is difficult to survive without some force.
She can't stay in the space all the time. She will have to go out in the future, so she should learn!
After dinner, Yongchang and Wencai took a few boys to continue building houses. Several women were also there to help.
Ye Yutong returned to her cave, lay down on her bed, closed the curtain and entered the space.
She took the basket and went to the hillside, ready to see the ewe. By the way, she picked some fruit to eat. She was a little tired of the big bowl of pork ribs and pork offal soup just now.
The oranges on the mountain are ripe. This variety is a sapling she bought in a place called Meishi when she was on a business trip to Sichuan Province.
The locals call it tangerine. This kind of orange is sour, sweet, and rich in water. She was amazed by the taste the first time she ate it. It is now one of her favorite fruits.
She picked two and ate them as she walked to the sheepfold.
The ewe was restless and heard her "baa baa baa" several times.
Ye Yutong put the freshly peeled orange in his hand to its mouth. The ewe sniffed it twice and then opened its mouth to eat.
Seeing that it showed no signs of giving birth, Ye Yutong picked half a basket of mandarin oranges, picked some cherries, and returned to the courtyard.
I rinsed my mouth and washed my hands again. I felt that I didn't smell that bad, so I left the room.
It was already dark, and my family hadn't come back yet. I lit the torch, and the cave instantly became bright.
She was lying on her bed, thinking about the salt problem at home.
They originally planned to buy more salt and bring it with them so that they could eat it for at least a year or two, but what happened later forced them to go into the mountains in advance.
Now save some salt at home so that it can be eaten until next spring. The salt in her space is difficult to take out, but it will definitely not work without salt.
After the house is built and we move forward, there is no way that Lingnan Mountain is so big that there is no human habitation at all, right?
After a while, the family members came back.
When Qiaoer and Dayuan fell asleep, Ye Mingzhe stayed outside, and Ye Yutong took his mother and eldest brother, Ping An, into the space together.
After Li Wenxiu entered, he walked up the mountain. Li Yunze and Ye Mingxuan each took a large backpack and went to work in the fields.
Ye Yutong was the only one left in the small courtyard. She did not go to the mountain or the fields, preparing to make something to eat.
Although there was meat for dinner in the evening, there was not much food left. Grandma Hu was reluctant to eat it, so she divided a small pancake each.
After a day's work, where can I get enough to eat? But life like this is much better than before the disaster, and everyone is very content.
There are so many things in her space, and she can't use them to subsidize everyone. She can only make small things for her own family.
I baked some scallion pancakes and boiled some salted goose eggs, which my mother had pickled some time ago.
She cooked it yesterday and tried it. It was already oily and the yolk was gritty and oily. It was delicious.
I went to pick some cucumbers and tomatoes from the field and mixed them into a plate. This was enough for the four of them.
She did not cook the wild boar meat for dinner today.
There are also many chickens, ducks and geese that have been packed away in the basement, which were killed by Big Brother and Ping An two days ago.
Basically they were all males, and some didn't lay eggs very much, so they were killed. A few people cleaned up for two nights and killed more than 60 chickens, ducks and geese in total.
These days, their family stews one every night.
It was difficult to give these things to Dayuan and Qiaoer, so Li Wenxiu made fried noodles for them every night, which greatly impressed the two children.
It seemed that they were the only two people in the whole family who had anything to eat at night. Even brother Mingzhe and sister Yutong didn't have anything to eat. They didn't drink anything.
In the end, Ye Yutong said that they had already drank, and they hesitated for a while before drinking.
He knelt down and kowtowed to Li Wenxiu again, vowing to be filial to her and listen to her brothers and sisters in the future.
"Tongtong, bring the scissors." Li Wenxiu's voice came from the mountain.
Ye Yutong knew that it was time to give birth to a lamb, so he hurriedly responded: "Mom, I'll be right away."
She ran to the mountain, and a lamb had come out, but the ewe still had a big belly, and there must have been more than one lamb.
He gave the scissors to Li Wenxiu and brought a basin of water over to ask her to wash her hands later.
There were four lambs in total. Li Wenxiu helped them clean up and cooked some rice paste for the ewes.
"Mom, when do you think that ewe will give birth?"
There are four sheep in total in the space, two rams and two ewes.
Because Ye Yutong likes to eat mutton, he bought four of them and planned to raise them to kill them for meat. These are authentic prairie sheep. The meat is very delicious and not as fishy as other breeds.
Li Wenxiu took a look and said: "It's still early for that end, it may still be a few months away!"
After tidying up the place, Li Wenxiu went to pick up the eggs again, "Tongtong, the basement is almost full, and the food in the fields is almost harvested. Where will they be put? There are still these eggs, and they can hardly be put away."
"Mom, after harvesting the food, put it in the small courtyard. It doesn't rain here, so it's okay to put it outside. As for these eggs, let's put them in the fairy's hall first. We also need to eat more, otherwise there will be too much."
"We pick up several baskets of chickens, ducks and goose eggs every day. How many can we eat?" Li Wenxiu said worriedly.
I'm worried about not having anything to eat outside, but I can't always take the food inside?
"It's okay. I'll leave it here for now. After the house is repaired, I plan to walk forward with Ping An to see if I can meet anyone. Such a big Lingnan Mountain? It's impossible for no one to live there."
Li Wenxiu said: "But we have been walking in the mountains for almost a month and haven't met anyone?"
"Mom, let's go in a different direction this time. Besides, our salt won't last long. If we don't go out this year, we won't have anything to eat next spring."
"But if you two kids are out, how can I feel relieved? How about I go with you?" Li Wenxiu asked.
Ye Yutong said with a smile: "Mom, Ping An's kung fu is so good, and I have gods protecting me, nothing will happen to me."
Seeing that she was still a little worried, he added, "We won't go too far. If we can't find it, we'll come back."
