Chapter 37: A Lucky Star

Chapter 37 It’s a lucky star

"Wow! It smells so good! Sister, the meat is so delicious when grilled like this. I want to eat it!" Fu An couldn't help but swallow.

"This is not for tonight. These meats need to be roasted and cooled before being put away. Otherwise, the raw meat will rot easily and attract wild beasts." Fu placed a full pile of roasted meat on a clean stone aside.

When it's cool, pack them into bags together. Later, when you're hungry on the road, you can take them out and eat them directly as dried meat.

Fu Qiang, who looked dissatisfied, was suddenly attracted by Fu Manman's words. He also carefully watched Fu Manman's operations.

He looked at Fu Manman, who was still ugly, and felt that she seemed different, a little weird, and not so stupid anymore.

"Okay, you just follow what I just did. I have other things to do." After Fu Manman explained, he handed over the matter to Fu An and Fu Qiang.

She started to get walnuts. She wanted to get the walnut meat out of these walnuts so that they could be used as dry food.

The outer skin of these walnuts is very hard, which is difficult for some people to peel, but for Fu Manman, who is extremely strong, it is as easy as peeling melon seeds.

I saw her pinching with her fingers, and a walnut was opened with its outer shell. She picked out the bones and flesh and put them into a cloth bag aside.

The Chang family, watching the three Fu family siblings busy, couldn't help but be curious and stepped forward to ask the reason.

I heard that roasting meat into dried meat is easier to store, so Chang Zhong followed suit.

Luhua sewed the cloth and covered her child with it. She said to Manman, "This cloth is quite big. Bring your little brother over and sleep with my child!"

Fu Manman did not refuse her kindness. The little brother was so small that it would be warmer if he slept with other children and covered him with a quilt.

After settling the children, Lu Hua was fine. When he saw Fu Manman making a kind of fruit, he took the initiative to ask for help.

She had never seen this kind of fruit and didn't know what it was, but when she saw Fu Manman getting the pulp out of the fruit, she was pleasantly surprised.

"Can this be eaten?" Luhua asked.

"It's edible. I tasted it and it's quite fragrant." Fu Manman didn't say it was a walnut. Judging from Lu Hua's expression, she probably had never seen walnuts before.

"Can I try one?" Luhua asked.

"Try it!" Fu Manman said generously.

It was a good thing to find walnuts. She would take Aunt Luhua to pick them up tomorrow. She hoped that the children of the Chang family would not go hungry again.

Help them if you can! Children are innocent.

Luhua tasted the walnuts and was immediately shocked by their deliciousness.

"This... is so delicious, it's really fragrant." Luhua was excited, and then asked eagerly, "Miss Manman, where did you pick this?"

"There is a big tree in the forest. There are many on the trees and on the ground. It is too late today. I will take you to pick it up early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, we have made a decision tomorrow morning." Luhua was so happy. With this, her children would not starve to death.

Thank God, they came out of the big cave and met the Fu family's siblings.

"Girl Fu Manman, I think you are a lucky star. How can you be so capable!" Luhua likes Fu Manman. In their village, girls like Fu Manman are capable girls. Many people come to ask for marriage proposals!

Fu Manman smiled and thanked Aunt Luhua for her kind words.

Luhua wanted to help Fu Manman peel the walnut meat, and Fu Manman couldn't refuse. She peeled it quickly and completely by herself. If Aunt Luhua tried to peel it, she would have no choice but to stone her.·

"This fruit is really difficult to peel. I couldn't control my strength well, so it all got smashed." Lu Hua looked at the walnuts she had smashed with distress.

This is all food! Life-saving food.

"It's not easy to peel, just do it slowly!" Fu Manman said slightly helplessly.

Even though he was very strong, his hands would hurt if he peeled them off too much. There was no good skin left on these pairs, and Fu Manman felt very sorry for himself.

The two people were smashing fruit there, which quickly attracted the attention of other people.

Soon everyone knew that the seeds in this fruit were edible, which made everyone very happy.

Because it is so difficult to find food these days.

Fu Qiang ate a piece of seed meat and was very surprised. He had picked up this fruit before and thought it was unpalatable, but it turned out that the edible fruit was in the hard shell.

How did she find out about Fu Manman?

Fu Qiang looked at Fu Manman smashing the fruit seriously, and suddenly felt that she didn't seem so annoying anymore.

After smashing all the walnuts, I don’t know what time it was at night.

Fu Manman only felt that her hands were shaking. Because she had been sitting all this time, her whole body was very cold, especially her feet, which were so cold that she could no longer feel anything.

Take a look at the shoes on your feet. They are tattered Buna shoes. The toes are still exposed.

"Girl Manman, come here and squeeze in together!" Luhua waved to Manman and asked her to cover herself with the quilt.

Fu Manman hesitated for a moment and took out a silk quilt wrapped in black cloth.

"Build this one! This one is warm. I picked it up on the road." Fu Manman said simply.

When Chang Zhong and Lu Hua saw the silk quilt, their eyes widened and they were shocked.

"This is a quilt? Is it so thick? What kind of cloth is it made of?" Why are there so many reed flowers? She stepped forward and touched the quilt, cautiously, for fear of getting dirty.

"I don't know, I picked it up." Fu Manman said with a smile.

Chang Zhong and Lu Hua believed Fu Manman's words because they also picked up good things.

"Such a good quilt, don't get it dirty. Miss Manman, I'll help you change the quilt cover from your old quilt and sew it on this quilt! It won't be conspicuous when you carry it on the road from now on."

"Okay, Aunt Luhua, I think so too, but I don't have any needle or thread."

"I have it on hand." Lu Hua dug out some needlework from her belongings, and then helped Fu Manman remodel the quilt.

Half an hour later, a distressed quilt was ready, which would be convenient to carry on the road and cover at night.

Pay Manman to add a big quilt on top of Chang's quilt.

"Mom, there is a cat here!" Chang Zuo found a fluffy kitten next to Xiaomaodan.

Yelling with joy.

"Kitten, so cute!" Sanya also saw it and touched it happily.

Luhua was surprised, where did the cat come from in this place?

"That's the little tiger cub I raised. It's called...Afu." Fu Manman gave the little tiger cub a temporary name.

Children really like furry and cute little animals.

"Wha...what? Is it a little tiger?" Luhua was so frightened that her tongue was tied.

The tiger we met on the road was scary enough, but how dare you keep this girl!

"Where's the tiger?" Chang Zhong also came over to take a look.

Fu Manman briefly talked about what happened when he met the tiger mother and entrusted the tiger cubs.

The Chang family couple couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that this tiger is quite humane and knows how to be benevolent and righteous."

"But, this little tiger cub will eat meat in the future, how will it be raised?" Lu Huaifu was full of worry.

"Take a step at a time and take care of it first." Fu Manman stroked the tiger cub's head.

The little tiger cub closed his eyes and slept soundly.

The children happily touched the tiger cub again, and then lay down to sleep.

With a large and thick silk quilt, it won't be cold tonight.

There will be one update at 8pm, and there will be updates at 8am and 8pm tomorrow morning!
