Soul Travel: I was bought by the fierce man in the village to farm

After picking up soap nuts for three days in a row, Mao Xiaosui didn't see many villagers. Mao Xiaosui even wondered if they had lived in an uninhabited village. While eating, he couldn't help but muttered, "Why don't you chop wood when the weather is sunny?" ?What if it snows at the end of January or the beginning of January? I always feel that this year will be colder than last year."

"It'll be fine if the sun shines for two days." Li Yunshan replied.

The room where they cooked was very warm, and the two of them slept for a while, but it was shorter than in summer. They woke up in about the time it took them to squint and have a meal.

The village, which had been quiet for several days, suddenly started to move in the afternoon. The sun disappeared for a while outside, and the yard was still a little wet, so it was not suitable for growing millet.

Li Yunshan went to the backyard to get eggs. There were only eight eggs out of eleven chickens. There were nine eggs a few days ago, indicating that another chicken might not be able to lay eggs.

In the afternoon, I went to the mountain to pick up soap nuts as usual. When I went out with a basket and a sack, I saw people in the village starting to walk up the mountain in twos and threes.

Mao Xiaosui heard that they were all talking about spending money during this illness. Some men were still blaming their mothers-in-law, and some even said that they were almost recovered from the illness and were lazy and did not work...

She glanced back and realized that these men were speaking truthfully when they said something bad about their mother-in-law.

Zao Guo picked it up quickly. The two of them filled up their backpacks and half of the sacks each.

When I walked back halfway, I saw Lu Xiaoxia coming this way alone.

As I was passing by, I heard her ask, "Are there any more?"

Mao Xiaosui glanced at her and nodded.

It wasn't until Li Yunshan had gone some distance that he said, "Yun Qiang didn't go to cut down the trees. Why did Lu Xiaoxia come to pick up saponins?"

"Maybe it's because we're afraid that we'll pick up all of them."

It was still early when they got home, so they had to go to the mountains to catch fish.

It is easy to get sick with water in this world. After placing two baskets, Li Yunshan and Heizi went to the trap first.

Mao Xiaosui dug up all the fungi nearby. After a while, he saw Li Yunshan coming over carrying a rabbit and two pheasants.

She quickly asked, "Are you alive?"

"Dead." Li Yunshan threw them on the ground and told Heizi, "You can't eat this. Find something to eat by yourself."

Heizi leaned over and smelled it before running away.

The two of them brought two baskets with them. After they were filled, the forest was already a little dark. The man cutting down the trees below was still busy. When they went down, they saw Li Yunqiang dragging a large log down panting.

Li Yunshan was holding something in his hand and carrying a basket behind his back, which didn't help.

When passing by him and walking forward, someone said, "If this Li Yunqiang hadn't broken up with Li Yunshan, why would he be so tired..."

The man didn't seem to be afraid of being heard when he said this.

Mao Xiaosui didn't recognize whose voice it was and didn't care. He asked Li Yunshan, "What's for dinner?"

"Fish soup."

"Then let's make another mushroom rice."

Li Yunshan nodded, put the things away, and went to the kitchen to get a bucket to carry water.

Before killing the fish, she boiled a pot of water for a while to make soup. The pot was small and she only killed one fish. She fried the fish first and fed the chicken while the water was boiling.

After pinching some green onions and returning to the front yard, he saw Heizi still eating the mountain rats he had caught.

The mountain rat is also very fat as it is about to spend the winter. It ate one sunspot on the mountain before. Li Yunshan plucked this one out of its mouth and ate it for dinner.

Li Yunshan refused to touch the pheasants and rabbits thrown in the yard after not letting them eat them. At this moment, he bit the mountain rat's head with a "click..." sound. Mao Xiaosui became frightened and hurried into the house to cook.

Throw a handful of mushrooms into the cooked soup and continue cooking. I dig half a bowl of millet and wash it, and half a bowl of mushrooms.

Add some salt to the cooked fish soup to taste, put green onions in a basin and pour the fish soup into it.

Li Yunshan carried water into the kitchen. After hearing no movement for a long time, she put the mushrooms in the pot and stir-fried them and went out to take a look.

Li Yunshan was holding the water tank and moving it out little by little. She helped him carry it out of the kitchen.

The mushrooms in the pot were fried until soft. She added some salt and spread the millet on top. She also removed a big firewood from the clay stove.

She washed the water tank, and Li Yunshan went to carry it again after pouring the water.

While the rice was cooking, she plucked the feathers off the pheasant.

She didn't think of growing the hair she had before, so she wasted a lot of it.

Plug out the small hairs and keep them, and keep the long hairs with the previous bundle.

When Li Yunshan came back, she had just plucked out her hair.

Since he had been dead for some time and could not be eaten, Li Yunshan took out the internal organs and threw them away. The meat was hung in the yard to feed Heizi.

The rabbit needs to be skinned, which is a little more troublesome to handle. It will take a while after everything is cleaned up and the food is cooked.

After Heizi finished eating, the mountain rat's belly felt a little round. Li Yunshan called it, and when he saw it didn't come into the house, he said, "You can't eat it."

Only then did Heizi follow him into the house.

After dinner, the two sat in front of the clay stove for a while. Mao Xiaosui teased Heizi with his hand and said, "Where should I put the three rabbits in the winter? I was shivering from the cold when I first went to feed them."

"I'll surround it with green grass tomorrow. I'll take the time to build a circle after I'm done with the millet."

"Forget about killing the pheasants. I originally hoped that they would lay eggs and catch a rooster to hatch them. It has been so long and I haven't even seen the shadow of an egg."

"It's used to being wild. It grew up eating bugs in the mountains and forests. It is designated that it is better to raise it in captivity than in the free range. It has been raised for so long and it would be a pity to kill it now. Let's wait until next year."

He didn't mind the trouble and Mao Xiaosui didn't say anything. He drank a bowl of hot water, went to the hut and fell asleep.

It was cloudless in the morning, and the sun had warmed them after dinner. The two of them quickly dragged out the millet.

Because it was dry, I didn’t dry it anymore and just beat it with a stick.

The two of them got busy quickly, finishing packing the millet and putting it into bags, sweeping the yard and dragging the millet pieces again and spreading them out to dry.

Mao Xiaosui went to cook while Li Yunshan sifted the millet produced in the morning.

As soon as she got off the pot, she heard Li Yunshan talking to someone in the yard. She opened the curtain and saw that it was Li Yunqiang.

I heard Li Yunshan say, "I'm also busy with millet matters, so I don't have time to go."

When she was wondering what was going on, she heard Li Yunqiang say, "You don't have much millet anymore. It's cold now. I have to cut down trees and I can't get away. You can just run away. After all, I am my grandma. I will hate you again." You can’t just ignore it…”

Li Yunshan also stopped what he was doing and stared at him, "I don't have time."

Li Yunqiang suddenly frowned, and his voice began to rise unconsciously, as if he was trying to be cruel.

Mao Xiaosui rolled his eyes and scolded him unceremoniously, "Whose family has so much work every year? What does it have to do with us that you didn't cut down the trees? Who is the culprit? Is it annoying to have to run away from other family members again and again?" "

"When I work, I do it for your family. When I'm sick, you don't go and let him go. How can you be so embarrassed?"

Li Yunqiang looked very unhappy, but he didn't say anything and left without saying a word.
