Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family

"Sister, I will grow up soon. When I grow up, you won't have to work so hard."

Zheng Xiaoman didn't expect Lixia to say this suddenly. He was stunned at first, and then he smiled.

"Okay, then we should eat well in the beginning of summer and grow up quickly."

Lixia also smiled, "Well, I want to look like my elder brother, and then I can take care of all the housework."

He patted his chest, as if he had grown up now.

Zheng Xiaoman pulled him over and rubbed his hair. "Okay, I'll go cook first. Help me pick some green onions."

"Okay miss."

Watching him running happily to the backyard, Zheng Xiaoman also stood up and walked into the kitchen carrying the backpack.

First put the big bones in the pot and boil them, and then use the bone soup to stew the cabbage at noon.

Let Lixia watch the fire and she went to the back mountain with the backpack on her back.

At noon, she wanted to mix some wild vegetables, one hot dish and one cold dish, which would be perfect.

There are a lot of wild vegetables on this mountain. She picked a basket full of them in less than half an hour.

Suddenly she thought of the pheasant she had caught before, and she wanted to try to catch a few more.

I looked at the time and realized it was too late in the morning, so I'll have to wait until the afternoon.

When they got home, the two younger ones helped her pick up wild vegetables. When the meal was ready, the brother and sister carried the meal to the fields just like they did yesterday.

Today's main meal for lunch was the multi-grain steamed buns she made, which went perfectly with the stew.

When they arrived at the field, Old Man Zheng and his colleagues were still working in the field.

When they heard Zheng Xiaoman calling them to eat, everyone immediately came out from the fields.

Thinking about what delicious food his granddaughter had made today, Old Man Zheng walked a little faster.

"Grandpa and grandma, I made some cabbage stew with big bones today, you guys should try it."

Zheng Xiaoman arranged the food and handed the chopsticks to them.

Mrs. Zheng took the chopsticks and asked, "Xiao Man, did you go to town by yourself?"

"Well, I went to town this morning."

Mrs. Zheng looked at her disapprovingly, "Don't go to town by yourself in the future. You're still laughing. What if you run into bad people?"

"Hehe, grandma, I'm ten years old, not a child anymore. Besides, bad guys will be scared when they see my face."

As soon as she said this, everyone fell silent.

Zheng Xiaoman reacted and wanted to slap himself in the face. Look at what you said with your broken mouth.

She really didn't care what her face looked like, and she had no plans to get married in ancient times.

But even if she doesn't care, her family members do. Isn't this like stabbing someone in the heart?

She quickly changed the subject, "Mom, please try this dish and see if it tastes good."

"Brother, I made your favorite mother-in-law pickles. Try it and see if it's delicious."

Old Man Zheng sighed inwardly, "Okay, let's eat quickly. We still have to work after dinner."

Even if the others felt upset, they couldn't say anything and could only lower their heads and eat.

Zheng Xiaoman scratched his head and said, "I have to be careful with my words next time."

Zhou Chunfeng looked at her daughter distressedly, "You and Lixia should go back and eat soon."

"Okay, mom, I'll go back right away."

Zheng Xiaoman didn't dare to stay any longer, so he ran away with Lixia.

Fortunately, the atmosphere among the four of them at home was pretty good. She kept her head down and ate without talking nonsense again.

After dinner, Lixia went to wash the dishes. She rested in the house for a while, then went to the back mountain with the basket on her back.

She also brought a shovel and planned to dig a few holes in the mountain.

This time she walked further up the mountain before finding a place to start digging a hole.

She just wanted to catch some pheasants or rabbits or something, so she didn't dig a big hole.

After digging the pit, she poured a small amount of space spring water on a few wild vegetables and then threw the vegetables into the pit.

After doing all this, she hid behind a big tree with her sickle.

One minute passed, five minutes passed, ten minutes passed, and the woods became so quiet that the only sound was the chirping of birds.

Zheng Xiaoman sat behind a big tree and stuck his head out to look outside.

It’s strange, are there no pheasants and rabbits in this area?

Just when she was thinking about whether to change place, she finally heard a rustling sound coming from the grass on the right.

Zheng Xiaoman's face lit up with joy. Here it comes.

But when she saw clearly what was crawling out of the grass, she got goosebumps all over her body.

Damn, what crawled out of the grass was a giant snake that was almost as thick as her arm and more than two meters long.

No wonder I haven’t seen any pheasants or rabbits. With such a big snake around, the rabbits would have been eaten by it long ago.

Zheng Xiaoman is afraid of snakes, and has been afraid of them since his previous life.

It's okay for her to eat cooked food, but she won't even dare to touch the live food.

I'm so unlucky today. Not only did I fail to catch the chicken, but I also attracted such a troublemaker.

Seeing the big snake slide into the pit, she didn't dare to stay here any longer, so she stood up and ran down the mountain.

She ran from halfway up the mountain to the bottom in one breath. When she saw that the big snake behind her did not catch up with her, she sat down on the ground.

This mountain is different from the mountains in later generations. There are all kinds of things in this wild forest. It is too dangerous.

She should be more careful next time and just wander around at the foot of the mountain.

Zheng Xiaoman sat on the ground for more than ten minutes before he came to his senses. The foot of the mountain should be safe. Why not try digging another hole here?

This time she didn't look for a place with deep grass, but found an open space and started digging the hole.

I hope I can gain something this time, otherwise all this afternoon's work will be in vain.

After the pit was dug, she repeated the previous operation, hiding aside and waiting for the prey to come.

She held the sickle tightly in her hand and looked around from time to time, for fear of attracting another big snake.

Fortunately, this time there was no danger. She saw two big rabbits, with several half-grown rabbits behind them, jumping into the pit.

Zheng Xiaoman's heart was pounding with excitement. Wow, the whole rabbit family is out together.

The key is that these are live rabbits. If we catch them and raise them, our family will never lack meat in the future.

She quietly picked up her basket and walked gently to the front of the pit.

The rabbits inside were busy eating grass and had no idea that danger was approaching.

Zheng Xiaoman took the backpack and placed it over the pit, and all the rabbits inside were locked in the pit.

The big rabbit inside finally reacted and started jumping up desperately.

The basket in her hands shook twice, and she quickly lay down on the basket.

Zheng Xiaoman scratched her head. The pit was covered, but the problem now was how could she get the rabbit out?

"What are you doing?"

Just as she was scratching her head, she suddenly heard a voice talking behind her. Zheng Xiaoman was so scared by the sudden voice that she almost jumped up.

"Oh my god, Brother Shuhuai? Why are you walking without making any sound? Scaring people can kill them." Zheng Xiaoman lay on the basket and stared at him.

She was so focused on the rabbit in the pit that she didn't notice someone coming behind her.

The sudden appearance of a man in this desolate mountain almost scared her to death.

Yang Shuhuai didn't expect that he would scare people. Seeing the little girl's face turned pale with fright, he reflected on himself and wondered if it was really because he walked too lightly?

"Ahem, I'm sorry, I didn't expect you didn't notice me coming over. What are you doing? Do you need my help?"
