This reaction was unexpected for Qin Huairu. She thought that this praise would make Lin Donglai smile happily at her like a fool.

I didn't expect that this kid was so stupid and went home with a sullen face. It seems I have to use a different approach next time.

The third aunt took the dirty clothes to the central courtyard for washing. Seeing Qin Huairu staring blankly, she completely forgot about washing clothes.

She couldn't help but blurt out: "Huai Ru, what are you thinking about so intently this morning?"

Qin Huairu finally came to her senses and started rubbing the clothes vigorously again, saying, "It's okay, Third Auntie, are you washing clothes so early too?"

Seeing that she was just trying to answer the question perfunctorily, the third aunt knew that she didn't want to talk and didn't ask any more questions.

Both of them were scrubbing the clothes in their own basins vigorously. There were not many clothes in Auntie Three's basin, just hers and her husband's.

Qin Huairu didn't have so many clothes in her basin. She had to rub the dirty clothes from the family of five until her hands were tired every day.

Seeing Third Auntie finishing wringing the last piece of clothing, Qin Huairu asked, "Third Auntie, how do you think Lin Donglai could catch a hare? I remember that he doesn't have this ability."

This question brought out what Third Aunt had in her mind, and she immediately said, "That's not true. If you ask me, the kid from the Lin family is the most useless in our courtyard.

Others are afraid of people, but he is afraid of people. He never leaves the house all day. The old Lin couple passed away early. It's really pitiful..."

Seeing that Third Auntie was getting further and further away, Qin Huairu quickly pulled her back: "Third Auntie, haven't you noticed that Lin Donglai seems to have become a different person recently?"

This question brought Auntie back to her thoughts, and she quickly said, "You're right, Huairu, you don't know, this kid has come to his senses now, not only does he dare to go out, he is very calm when talking to people, and he is not as timid as before.

But this kid is so stingy. He stewed so much meat yesterday, but he didn’t invite your uncle to have some. It’s a waste of our deep friendship. "

Qin Huairu lost patience listening to the third aunt's increasing complaints, and she had a new plan in mind.

He smiled and said, "Third Aunt, I heard Lin Dong say that he will go to the mountains to chop wood again today. Do you think he will come back with a wild rabbit to eat today?"

The third aunt didn't even think about it and replied, "The hare's surname isn't Lin. He must have been lucky yesterday and caught it by chance. It's not like he catches it every day."

As she walked back to the front yard carrying the clothes, the third aunt was a little worried, thinking that this kid surely wouldn't be so lucky.

If we catch wild rabbits to eat every day, the rabbits in the mountains would be in great shape.

When she got home, she discussed the matter with Yan Bugui, and they both agreed: it is impossible, absolutely impossible.

The conversation between the two women in the middle courtyard was quite loud. Lin Donglai stood in the front yard and listened to every word, but after listening he just smiled contemptuously.

I thought to myself, this is nothing. Why make such a fuss over killing a rabbit? It's just a small matter. My life will only get better and better from now on.

When I got home, my sister had already woken up and was making her bed. Despite her frail body, she was very skillful at the job and she tidied her bed in no time.

Seeing her brother coming home, she scolded him, "Brother, when you get up, you should at least call me. Look, I'm already late."

Lin Dong looked at the little girl's messy hair and adult-like expression, and couldn't help but smile and said:

"Dongyi, children need to sleep more so they can grow faster. Besides, you got up not too late. The sun hasn't even set on your butt yet."

When the little girl heard this, she pouted and looked unhappy: "I'm not a lazy pig."

Lin Donglai was happy to see his sister gradually becoming as cute and innocent as a normal child should be. A child of this age should behave like a child.

You shouldn't be worried and sad all day long.

He smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you're not the lazy pig, I'm the lazy pig. Go wash up and let's have breakfast."

While his sister was washing up, he went to the space to get some spiritual spring water, boiled it, and took out some steamed buns.

The brother and sister had a simple meal, taking a bite of steamed bun and drinking a sip of boiled water. After breakfast, Lin Donglai suddenly felt full of strength.

This spiritual spring water is really good. After drinking it for only two days, the feeling of weakness in my body has completely disappeared.

He thought secretly that from now on, all the drinking water at home would have to come from this spring, as it was perfect for strengthening the body.

When I walked to the door, I saw that people who were going to work were all heading out of the yard. It seemed that it was getting late and I should leave too.

Lin Donglai packed up the rope as usual and picked up the axe. Then he suddenly remembered the prompt from the system and looked around the house.

The Lin family's house was not very big, only about 30 square meters in total. It was divided into two parts in the middle, and there was a small house outside the house used as a kitchen.

Originally, my sister slept in the outer room with her parents, but after her parents passed away, the little girl was scared, so she switched rooms with her brother.

In other words, the room where Lin Donglai sleeps now is also the room where his parents lived before they died.

He searched the room carefully and found that it was simply furnished and he couldn't find anything suitable to use.

I went to my sister's room again and took a look. Apart from the bed and the clothes of the brother and sister, there seemed to be nothing special.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he saw two black things under the bed out of the corner of his eye.

When I took it out, I saw it was a trap!

I don’t know when this thing was hidden in the house. As far as Lin Donglai can remember, he has never seen his father use it.

I took it out and broke it, it's not broken. I have to take this thing with me, maybe it will come in handy.

In order to avoid being conspicuous, he stuffed the two items and the machete and rope into a sack, told his sister to look after the house, and then set off.

As expected, I ran into Yan Bugui when I walked out of the house. The bad thing about living in the front yard with him is that you see him every time you look up or down.

But he was in a hurry to go to school for class, so he just said hello and hurried out of the yard.

Lin Donglai also breathed a sigh of relief. He was carrying such a big sack. Fortunately, he was in a hurry and didn't ask too many questions, otherwise he would have to explain it, which would have been too troublesome.

After leaving the hospital, the next step was to hurry on our way. Perhaps with the help of the spiritual spring water, this time our steps were much lighter.

In less than an hour, we reached the foot of the mountain. Then we felt a little tired, so we sat down to rest for a while.

There are quite a few people going into the mountains at this time, but they are basically women and the elderly, and some even bring their children with them.

It is really not easy to find some wild vegetables to eat and save some food at home.

After resting enough, he patted his butt, stood up, and slowly climbed towards the middle of the mountain, carefully observing the surrounding environment as he climbed.

After all, there are more important things to do today, so I have to try out whether this hunting skill is useful.

What he is most worried about now is that no prey will appear, then this skill will be useless.

He still took out a wooden stick and searched in the pine forest halfway up the mountain...
