The guards set out one morning, when it was not raining.

Although it's still cloudy.

A total of about twenty people went out, and the remaining guards stayed at the farm to protect them.

Mu Chaoge was waiting at the farm.

It was rare for Zhang and Little Zhang to come over and sit, so Mu Chaoge chatted with them.

"Recently, some vegetables that were damaged by the rain have been pulled up and fed to livestock. It's such a pity. It would be terrible if we didn't have vegetables to eat this winter."

"That's right. This year is strange. There was little rain in the summer but a lot of rain in the autumn. It's really rare. There was even thunder a few days ago!"

Zhang and Little Zhang were so free that they started doing needlework. It had been raining recently and the crops were all beaten down by the rain. After pulling them out and feeding them to the livestock, there was no need to take care of them, so there was no work to do.

Mu Chaoge was in a good mood. "Fortunately, the summer harvest was not affected this year. We have harvested the sweet potatoes. If it rained heavily in the summer, wouldn't it be a disaster? As for the vegetables, at least we can feed the livestock."

It won’t all rot.

Zhang and Little Zhang also laughed when they heard it, "Our Third Miss is the best."

Be open-minded.

Mu Chaoge said, "There's nothing you can do about it. Didn't I also get stuck in a rut before? I was worried about not having enough food. Now that I think about it, it can't be helped. Everything depends on human effort. Just do your best."

The main reason is that there is still plenty of food, enough for them to eat until next year, and they have made a lot of money this year, and have several thousand taels of silver in their pockets.

Not counting the other babies.

There are many livestock on the farm, and if they don't hunt, they have enough to eat for daily life.

But when it comes to supplies, the more the better. No one would complain about having too little. Besides, the old hunters have said that wild beasts are rampant.

If we don't kill some of them, they won't be able to get food in the mountains and forests, and they will start to attack humans.

Anyway, it's a win-win situation.

Zhang and Little Zhang also praised the good earthworms she raised. "I moved them out a few days ago and took a look. They were packed with earthworms! They were all very big!"

"Yes, it's thick and strong. The chickens, ducks and geese are so happy to eat it. They are all fighting over it like crazy!!"

They both agreed that these animals were extremely lucky and well-off. The earthworms they kept with the Third Miss were specially raised for them to eat, and they tasted better than what they could find in the wild!

Such a fat one!

The two of them talked about this incessantly, saying that the livestock on the farm had been well fed recently, but there were many rainy days, so they all stayed in the chicken coop.

Mu Chaoge asked them to pay more attention to their health issues. "We have nothing to do anyway, so have someone add some small trunks to the trees so the chickens can rest on them, and build some sheds, so that you can let them out for a walk occasionally."

Otherwise, if you keep it in the chicken coop for a long time, it won’t work.

Zhang and Xiao Zhang both said they understood, they often used herbs to fumigate the chicken coop, which kept it quite dry and would not allow mosquitoes to fly in.

The hay on the ground is changed frequently to ensure that the inside is clean enough.

The livestock will not get sick.

Mu Chaoge said that as long as they knew it, it would be fine, and she still believed in their attentiveness.

Zhang and Little Zhang told her not to worry. Even if something happened to the crops in the fields, nothing must happen to the livestock, as they both cared deeply about them.

However, when talking about livestock, they started talking about game from the mountains. In fact, they both agreed that most of them were not as delicious as those raised at home, and the meat was very tough.

But there are still some delicious things.

"Pheasant is good, bird is delicious, venison is OK, but wild boar is very tough."

"I don't know how much they can get back this time."

Mu Chaoge also said she wasn't sure, but she was still a little looking forward to it.

A little more time passed.

The three of them originally thought that there would be no movement until the afternoon, but just after noon, they received news that seven or eight young guards had returned on horses with a lot of prey piled on their horses, and they were all covered in blood.

At first, Uncle Cai was scared and almost fainted.

As a result, several young people shouted excitedly, "Uncle Cai, Uncle Cai, don't be afraid! This is not our blood! It belongs to the prey! Quickly find someone to take it!"

They said there are a lot of prey in the mountains!

Very easy to fight!

He is very stupid, but he always hits the target with his gun, including deer and wild goats.

There are also lots of rabbits.

Rabbits were running around in the grass like crazy, and there could be several of them in one bush.

Uncle Cai just came out of his panic and became excited again, "Okay, okay! I'll call someone to pick them up right away, you guys are awesome!"

The young men all laughed. They placed the prey in the hall first, and then rode their horses back to join the hunting group.

Uncle Cai then quickly arranged for people to deal with the prey. "Quick, quick, find some unwanted straw mats and put a few more layers of hay. When there is prey coming back later, put it on top to avoid dirtying the ground, which will be difficult to clean later."

Da Zhuang and the others quickly agreed and did as they were told, and everyone got busy.

When Mu Chaoge received the news, he, Zhang and Little Zhang all laughed!

"Hurry up, let's go join in the fun!"

"Hey! We actually caught something! Now we don't have to worry about having no meat to eat!"

Zhang and Little Zhang got up quickly.

Xiao Taozi also supported Mu Chaoge, "Miss Third, be careful. It's cold outside."

Sister Du Juan quickly fetched the cloak and put it on Mu Chaoge. "Those things smell very bloody. Miss, do you really want to go and take a look?"

Upon hearing this, Nanny Zhou also came out from the inner room and began to persuade, "Hey, little ancestor, let's not go. It's not good to see all that blood."

She was afraid of scaring Mu Chaoge!

Mu Chaoge said it was fine, "I'll just go take a look and be back."

She said she wouldn't stay any longer.

In fact, when I think of these bloody animals, I sometimes think of my own psychological trauma.

That was Awang’s miserable condition.

However, Mu Chaoge had to overcome this, so she insisted on going and taking a look.

Zhang and Little Zhang naturally accompanied her.

So the five of them walked towards the farm gate and met a group of people busy working on the way.

"Hurry, hurry, drain the blood while it's still hot! Otherwise you won't be able to drain it out!"

"It's very bloody and smelly without any blood or flesh!"

"Go get some more basins! Divide the meat and take it to the well to wash it."

"Wow, these guys are really capable. So much meat? How long will it take to eat it all?"

“I heard there are still quite a few over there!”

Zhang and Little Zhang also hurried over to help direct the group and asked them to carefully peel off the fur.

Mu Chaoge took a look and still felt uncomfortable, so she didn't stay for long, but called Uncle Cai to come over because she discovered an important problem.

There is too much meat to eat, so we have to find a way to store it.

Uncle Cai came over immediately and said, "Miss San, why are you here? The smell of blood is strong here, I don't want to suffocate you or scare you."

Mu Chaoge said it was okay, "Uncle Cai, ask everyone to pick out some of what they want to eat and leave them. After cleaning the rest, marinate them with salt and spices, and then smoke them in the small room where we smoked the meat."
