Just a rough count, there must be at least seven or eight wild rabbits and a dozen pheasants in that pile of hills.
Not to mention how they were beaten, even with the strength of their own men, how to carry them back is a big problem.
Long Tianyu's smile became more and more endearing, "We can't come empty-handed for the first time, so I went to the mountain to have a look, but I didn't expect that I was lucky."
It's not just good luck.
There are not many woods around here, so there are many wild animals.
But there are only a few villages here. Everyone usually goes up the mountain, but they don't dare to run deeper.
If they encounter wild beasts such as wild wolves, they are no match at all, and they will probably only become food for others.
There are also those who set snares or animal traps in the woods.
But this kind of thing depends purely on luck, and only professional hunters have such good skills.
So in fact, the wild animals in this forest are not very afraid of people.
Especially the group of pheasants, they were so bold that they wanted to use their numbers to attack Long Tianyu.
Of course, the end result is that they become a pot of meat on the table.
Thinking of the hunting in the afternoon, Long Tianyu still had some unfinished thoughts.
"Why don't I get up early tomorrow and go take a look? After all, I'm going to be bothering others all night."
Lin Mengya also nodded.
That's what it should be.
On the contrary, after dinner, Liu Yanyan and Hua Laowen looked a little worried at the pile of hills in the yard.
"Daughter-in-law, Brother Long said before that these are our meeting gifts. What do you think we should do?"
"What should we do? You just accept so many things?"
Liu Yanyan felt a little ashamed.
In her opinion, he brought her back because he and Sister Lin fell in love at first sight.
result
The things he gave to the children in the afternoon were already very valuable, and now Brother Long has brought so many prey to them.
This made her face, which was always good-looking, turn red with embarrassment.
In the afternoon, Sister Lin also said that the relationship between them was about deeds rather than heart. Although he didn't quite understand, the girl also explained it to him.
Who knew that she would take such a huge advantage at night? Where would she put her face?
"No! We can just eat these things once, and we have to take the rest back to them. If we put this on the market, we can sell it for a lot of money!"
Liu Yanyan is a good at living at home.
These pheasants and rabbits may seem inconspicuous, but if you take them to the town If I sell it online, it will be a hot commodity.
After all, the New Year is not a good one now. Not to mention using money to buy meat, everyone has no food. They can only go to the mountains every day to dig some wild vegetables and fruits to satisfy their hunger.
If these things are sold in the town, those wealthy households will definitely snatch them up.
The food exchanged will be enough to feed the whole family for half a year.
As a result, just as she was about to say it, Lin Mengya came over with her men and suggested, "Sister Yanyan, what do you and your brother-in-law do with those prey? Although the weather is still cool now, it will be easier if they are kept for a long time.
broken."
Liu Yanyan immediately said, "Sister, I wanted to tell you this just now. I know what you and your wife think, but there are too many of these things, so you should take them back."
Lin Mengya looked at Sister Yanyan and knew she would say that.
So, she has thought of a good way.
So, he immediately looked embarrassed and said, "To be honest, Sister Yanyan, this is the first time I have eaten such delicious game. Normally, even if she catches prey and brings it back, I won't do it."
If you really feel sorry for yourself, how about you make me some smoked dried meat? I only need a few, and the rest will be used as payment for your wages and materials, okay?"
"Girl, if you want to eat anything, I will cook it for you.
These things won’t cost you anything, so you’d better take them all back.”
As a result, Lin Mengya went up and hugged Sister Yanyan's arm, pretending to complain, "Then we won't get along with each other from now on?"
Besides, if my brother and the others come over tomorrow, they will have to have a big meal at my sister's house.
These things have cost you so much firewood, as well as the vegetables and fruits in the backyard and the mushrooms picked from the mountains. If I don't leave you a few, how can I have the nerve to come to your door next time?
If you really don’t want it, then we’ll leave now.”
Liu Yanyan, what else can she say?
She also knew that this was her sister's kindness. If she didn't accept it, it would seem that she was too ignorant of good people.
But in my heart, I am even more grateful to this girl.
Although the conditions at their home are not too bad, they still have to support the elderly and children of two families.
As the eldest members of both families, they have to provide more support for their younger siblings.
Therefore, these things are indeed a timely help for them and can greatly relieve their stress.
Liu Yanyan and Hua Laowei
They are all people who miss love.
They couldn't wait to give all their best things to Lin Mengya and his wife.
In short, Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu received the highest standard of treatment from this family.
Now that she has an idea in her heart, Liu Yanyan no longer cares about her mother-in-law and mother. ??
Erniu and the others are from her natal village.
Her natal village is not far from here, and it only takes half an hour by walking on the mountain road.
Before coming out today, the boys also told their parents that they were going to see the excitement on the other side of the ring and might come back later.
These children have been used to running wild in the mountains and plains since they were young, and their families will not be worried.
But before going back, Sister Yanyan warned them one by one not to tell their families what happened today.
He just said that he didn't think it was interesting when he went to watch the fun, so he was taken home by Sister Yanyan and others to play in the woods for a while. By the way, they were also allowed to take back a wild animal that had not been cleaned up.
This was what Lin Mengya and his wife reminded them.
"I'm afraid that what happened today won't let them go. Let's be careful and try our best to dispel other people's suspicions about us."
In fact, the most dangerous person is Hua Laowei.
If Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu had already disguised themselves, the risk of them being exposed would be relatively small. Sister Yan Yan was always wearing a hat on the stage, but Hua Laowei was different. He didn't cover anything.
Therefore, Long Tianyu had been deliberately blocking the sight of those people with his body on the stage. As long as he was careful, he should not be discovered.
Moreover, Lin Mengya had other ways to conceal Hua Laowen's identity.
But these three children were a relatively big loophole, so after she reminded them, Liu Yanyan gave the three children a warning, warning them that if they spilled the beans, they might bring trouble to their family.
The three children also had lingering fears after the previous adventure.
Therefore, they naturally listened to what Sister Yanyan said, remembered it in their hearts, and promised not to tell anyone after they returned.
Especially the wild animal brought back will become their strong evidence.
After all, everyone around here knows how difficult it is to hunt prey in the mountains. If it hadn’t been for a lot of hard work, how could one person carry a prey home?
"Sanhu, take these back to your parents. If your parents ask, you will tell them the truth, but you will tell your parents what I just said. Do you understand?"
Sanhu has the most things in his hands .
A few people just finished their meal and had nothing to do, so they boiled pots of hot water and cleaned up all the rabbits, pheasants and so on.
At this moment, Sanhu had several hanging on his body, and he was holding one in each hand. He looked like a hunter collecting mountain goods in the mountains.
He is older than the three children and is much more stable.
He nodded to his sister and left with the three children.
Lin Mengya was a little worried when they saw them walking on the dark mountain road, so she asked Long Tianyu to follow them secretly to protect them.
It wouldn't take long to go back and forth. The most important thing was that if something unexpected happened, he could protect them.
"Hey, Brother Long doesn't have to worry so much. These children are used to running in the mountains. They can run home even with their eyes closed. Why bother with this trip in the middle of the night?"
Liu Yanyan was a little embarrassed.
Lin Mengya said, "It's a troubled time now, so it's better to be more careful. Besides, he runs fast and will be back soon, so we don't have to worry, just leave a door open for him."
Hearing what she said, Liu Yanyan was embarrassed to refuse again.
At night, despite Lin Mengya's objections, Liu Yanyan gave the largest and cleanest room to the couple, and also gave them a new bedding.
"This is the new cotton I got from someone last year. You try it. If it's not soft enough, I'll find you another bed."
Liu Yanyan smiled and talked to her, and brought her a lot of snacks they made themselves.
Sister Qiao and Sanfeng, the two little girls are like two little spinning tops, they want to give all their little secrets to their aunt all the time.
Lin Mengya was overwhelmed with food. She had eaten a lot at night, but she wasn't hungry yet.
But Sister Yanyan’s craftsmanship is so good. Originally it was just the simplest dried wild fruit, but what she made was clean, sour, sweet, soft and hard, and you couldn’t stop eating it once you tasted it.
"Auntie, try this! These are the wild hazelnuts I picked up on the mountain. Although they don't look big, they taste delicious!"
Qiao Jie'er and Sanfeng both like this aunt, but compared to Feng'er who can only roll around in Lin Mengya's arms for the time being, Qiao Jie'er is obviously a big girl.
She is also as clever as his mother.
In addition, their family does not favor boys over girls, so Sister Qiao still managed to save a lot of "family wealth" by relying on her skillful hands.
As a result, Lin Mengya was stuffed with a handful of hazelnut kernels in her hand.
The pieces were plump, and they were peeled off cleanly by Sister Qiao before being delivered to her hands.
