People outside the mountains always think that the people in the mountains guard the mountains and forests, can hunt, and always have meat to eat.
This idea is purely a dream, because most of the wild animals and game animals have to be sold for money to buy daily necessities, and no one is willing to eat them.
Yun Shu learned from Daya's memory that not everyone has a meat ticket even if they have an urban household registration.
Only working employees can receive 2 taels of meat stamps every month. Urban residents without jobs can only receive meat stamps during the Chinese New Year. There are also some tickets for new year items that are not available on weekdays, such as candies, melon seeds and other new year items, which are less than half. The amount of kilograms.
Daya’s family can eat meat every month, partly because her mother is a teacher and has meat tickets;
Part of it is that every time Da Ya's father comes home from vacation, he goes hunting in the mountains. He never sells the prey, but divides some among several families and leaves the rest to his wife and children.
The eldest daughter also loves her children. She distributes the meat well and always gives the two children a meal of meaty meat dishes every week.
But since the death of their parents, Da Ya and Da Zhuang have never eaten meat again. Due to their body instincts, even Yun Shu felt like he was going to die from a mouthful of fat meat that he had never eaten before.
Although Yun Shu also wanted to go into the mountain to have a look, her small body could not even draw the bow left by her father.
Today's Changbai Mountain is a pure deep mountain forest with frighteningly many ferocious beasts.
In recent years, the militia companies of the brigade have been equipped with several shotguns, so tigers are rare. However, when winter comes, there is nothing to eat in the mountains. Wild boars, wolves and lambs can even be seen in the village from time to time, so winter is not allowed. Going out at will.
Even now, Yun Shu hears wolves howling every night, and occasionally even tigers roaring. It feels more lively than coming to the zoo.
There is a family in the village who are native mountain people. The eldest grandson of the family is an experienced old hunter. He has personally hunted Siberian tigers and outsmarted a python as big as a bucket.
His little great-grandson has a tiger tooth necklace hanging around his neck, which is the most envied decoration among the boys in the village.
In the eyes of a true hunter, hunting is sacred and for survival. Animals have great strength and speed; hunters have weapons and brains.
Life or death depends entirely on the strength and strategy of both parties. This is the law of the jungle.
In later generations, humans will be driven by financial interests to poach and kill in the jungle, and will only be abandoned by the jungle in the end.
Maybe Yun Shu didn't pay attention to this in the past. She also liked gorgeous fur and delicious game. But after living in the underworld for 50 years, Yun Shu already knew that there are gods three feet above her head. "Heaven knows, earth knows, you know, I know" principle.
Although she possesses the red lotus fire of karma, which can burn all things, she has a golden finger, so why should she add karma and tarnish the treasure!
Therefore, Yun Shu had no intention of going into the mountains when his own "Health Secret" was not enough to protect himself in the jungle.
Some people may say that Yun Shu is too hypocritical. Don’t you still kill and eat meat?
Yun Shu has never struggled with this, nor will she scold others for what they should do. She only demands that she have a clear conscience!
So when collecting firewood, Yun Shu and Da Zhuang couldn't be happier after catching a pheasant with both hands after the chicken was flying around.
Of course, the pheasant did not enter the bellies of Yun Shu and Da Zhuang, but was sent to Wangye's house by them.
Wangye worked hard to treat Xiaozhuang's illness. When the good things came out, the first thing the two siblings thought of was to bring them to Wangye.
Early the next morning, Yun Shu got up early. The weather was going to be cold soon. She had to collect as much firewood as possible.
Yun Shu cooked millet porridge first. Now there is no shortage of food at home. Along with the furniture returned, there are 20 kilograms of cornmeal, 20 kilograms of sorghum rice and five kilograms of millet. In addition, she takes out the food from the space mall from time to time. She There is a tendency to eat more and more food at home.
Fortunately, he is young and strong, and he blindly worships his sister.
Yun Shu beat two eggs, added water, and steamed a large bowl of chicken cake. Da Zhuang ate the tender chicken cake with a happy face.
"Sister, you can eat it too. This cake is tender and fragrant, just like my mother's steamed cake."
Yun Shu smiled and said, "If you like to eat, eat more. I'm thinking of asking Aunt Zhao to buy two egg-laying chickens for the family. The eggs will not be sold, but will only be kept for us to replenish our bodies."
To be honest, Yun Shu had no interest in raising chickens, but if she didn't raise chickens, how would she get rid of so many eggs in the mall? Now is a true example of "the chicken comes first, then the egg".
The two siblings drank millet porridge and shared a large bowl of chicken cake. Yun Shu fed Xiao Zhuang milk powder and packed up. The three siblings were about to go out when they heard a knock on the door.
"Da Ya, Da Zhuang, I am your uncle of the Tong family."
When Da Zhuang heard this voice, he said in surprise: "Sister, Uncle Tong is here." Yun Shu was also very surprised, it was not time yet.
Da Zhuang ran to open the door, and Yun Shu followed behind with Xiao Zhuang in his arms. When he opened the door, the first person was Uncle Tong Tong Jianye in Da Ya's memory.
He is tall but skinny. He looks about thirty-seven or eighteen years old. He is pretty good-looking, fair and clean, and wears a pair of glasses. He looks like a cultured person at first glance.
He was holding a donkey in his hand, and there was a flatbed cart attached to the donkey, and a thin old man was sitting on the cart.
Da Zhuang rushed over as soon as he saw it, "Master!"
Yun Shu first called "Uncle Tong", and then, like Da Zhuang, her eyes turned red when she saw the person coming, and she could only hold back the tears. It was probably because of her memory and body instinct that affected her.
Mr. Tong, whose Chinese name was Tong Rui, did not need the support of Xiaozhuang and his younger son. He got off the donkey cart in a smooth way. Yun Shu felt a little guilty. Although Daya was not very close to this Mr. Tong, after her mother's advice, she Next, this old man's status in her mind is similar to that of her great-grandfather.
"Master, why are you here?"
Yun Shu tried her best to recall how Da Ya behaved when she saw this old man on weekdays. She tried to be as natural as possible. She has become more mature with age, and she didn't want to show off her feet in front of this man.
"Oh, do you remember that I am your grandfather? I thought you two had big ideas and wanted to break off the relationship with Changbai Village."
Mr. Tong said this slowly and calmly, but the meaning between the lines was just Yun Shu, and even Xiao Zhuang and Tong Jianye shrank their necks with guilt.
Only Xiao Zhuang blinked his big eyes and looked at his sister, looking innocent and ignorant of the world.
Speaking of which, Da Ya and Da Zhuang were not very familiar with this grandpa. The main reason was that since Da Ya's great-grandpa passed away five years ago, they only went back to Changbai Village during the Chinese New Year to visit his great-grandpa's grave.
But at this moment, Yun Shu instinctively followed his heart and said flatteringly: "Master, whatever you said, I will help you into the house."
Looking at Yun Shu like this, Mr. Tong said with a bit of a smile: "You are really thick-skinned now. Why do you want to save face when you hide such a big thing from us?"
As he spoke, he snorted, took Xiao Zhuang from Yun Shu's arms, and pulled Dazhuang into the yard.
Tong Jianye made a gesture of wiping his neck to Yun Shu, "Uncle, I'm having trouble with you this time."
Yun Shu was a little confused, "Uncle Tong, please tell me!"
Tong Jianye looked at Yun Shu in surprise, "Da Ya, you naughty kid, grandpa is right, you have become thick-skinned, and now you are still playing tricks on my uncle. Why are you so big-minded! Your second aunt is not a human being. , you think people from Changbai Village are dead!"
As soon as Yun Shu heard this, he knew why Mr. Tong, who rarely left the village, was here. He was convinced.
Yun Shu cried out in her heart: Everything happened before was all done by that naughty boy Daya, it has nothing to do with me!
There was nothing he could say to anyone, so Yun Shu had no choice but to admit it and entered the room dejectedly.
