Chapter 19 Picking Mushrooms

Lu Jinnian was packing up pheasants, and said without raising his head: "We have a lot of harvest today, so I came back early."

"Pheasants!" Lu Jinqiu ran slowly, and saw pheasants as soon as he arrived.

As he spoke, his mouth was watering.

There were only three pheasants in total, so they had to be processed. When the time comes, smoke the skin so that they can be kept for two more days without spoiling.

"Brother, where did you pick these mushrooms?" Lu Jinxin was a little surprised when she saw the mushrooms next to her.

She had also looked for food nearby before, but she had never found mushrooms except wild vegetables.

Hearing this, Lu Jinnian remembered something and said: "I don't have time to pick mushrooms. I'll take you there tomorrow. You can pick some and dry them to eat in winter."

There are no vegetables in winter, and they need to take vitamins, so they can only think of mushrooms and wild vegetables.

"Okay!" Lu Jinxin agreed directly. As long as she could find more food, she would do anything.

In order for everyone not to go hungry in winter, she also has to contribute!

"I want to go too, I want to go too!" Lu Jinqiu pulled her sleeve and said, "Brother, I want to go mushroom picking too!"

Although he was young, he knew that there was nothing to eat at home, but mushrooms could be eaten.

Seeing him so active, Lu Jinnian smiled and said, "You help your second brother with work at home, and I'll take my sister to pick mushrooms, okay?"

There must be someone to take care of the family, so the two can take care of each other.

Lu Jinxin also said, "Xiaoqiu, you are obedient, and you are helping others in everything you do."

"Okay." Lu Jinqiu agreed reluctantly.

In the evening, everyone had a meal of pheasant stewed with mushrooms as they wished. Because there was only one pot, they made rice first and then stewed vegetables.

After the rice was steamed, it was placed on the lotus leaf so that it could be eaten separately.

Lu Jinnian looked at the house and there was not even a bowl or basin, and knew that he was busy.

However, these things did not seem to be cheap, so it was better to save the money and see if there was anything suitable in the space.

Seeing that everyone was asleep at night, Lu Jinnian got up and went out, and then searched in the space.

Finally, he found a bunch of retro bowls and chopsticks, bowls with no patterns, and the color was not pure white.

This kind of bowl is the best, and there is no printed pattern.

After finding the things, Lu Jinnian went back to sleep.

The next morning, she took Lu Jinxin to the place where she went yesterday. Because the road was far, she asked her sister to wait here after walking for a while.

"There are mushrooms here. Remember to wait here after picking them. Don't think about picking more and walking away. There are wild animals here, and I can't find you if you get lost." Lu Jinnian warned her a lot, fearing that the child wanted to make a contribution.

After all, children have such a mentality, but she can't take care of so many things. The best way is to let her wait where she is.

Hearing this, Lu Jinxin nodded solemnly, "Brother, don't worry, I will be obedient!"

She won't walk around. If she really gets lost, it will cause trouble to others.

Although Lu Jinnian is not someone else, he is already under a lot of pressure and can't make trouble anymore.

Seeing her nod, Lu Jinnian was relieved, and then turned around and continued to walk into the mountains.

The food at home can be eaten for two days, but you can't wait until you finish eating before looking for wild animals.

Fortunately, there are more things here, even rabbits and pheasants can be seen. It is better to go to the deep mountains and old forests. Modern cities have driven out all the wild animals, and she can't find them even if she wants to.

Unless she goes to some primitive forest, it is more dangerous there.

Climbing up a big tree, Lu Jinnian looked down from above. Although she couldn't see pheasants and rabbits, she could see some large animals.

Looking around, she locked her eyes on a roe deer two hundred meters away.

This thing only weighed a few dozen pounds or a hundred pounds, but the meat was very good and there was fat.

After watching for a while, she climbed down the tree and walked over there, because the prey had been there motionless. It was not easy for her to draw the bow if it was too far away because the trees were blocking it, and it was easy to alert the snake.

When walking over there, she also had to walk lightly, for fear that these wild animals would hear the movement.

The ears and sense of smell of wild animals are dozens, hundreds, or even tens of thousands of times

stronger than humans. They will discover humans at the first time.

Fortunately, the wind direction was blowing from the prey to Lu Jinnian's direction, otherwise the smell would be smelled from a long distance.

Looking at the prey not far away from her, Lu Jinnian held her breath, picked up the bow and arrow in her hand, and drew the bow in one go!

There was a "whoosh" sound, and a muffled sound followed.

"Hit!" Lu Jinnian's eyes lit up, and then she walked forward quickly.

Although the reaction of wild animals like roe deer is a bit strange, it is the nature of animals to run away when they are injured.

However, this time Lu Jinnian aimed at the head, and an arrow pierced the eye directly. The roe deer fell to the ground and twitched a few times before it became motionless.

She quickly bled it, then put the prey into the space, turned around and left this place.

Just now she found one or two tigers nearby, a male and a female, and they seemed to be out looking for food.

After leaving, Lu Jinnian took a breath, shot a hare, and brought a nest of pheasants before going back.

From the time she went hunting to the time she returned, it took almost two hours in total, that is, four hours.

It took an hour to track the roe deer, and hunting was not easy. The most exhausting thing was patience.

Back to the place where she picked mushrooms, she was holding a basket woven with rattan, which contained pheasant eggs, a pheasant, and a hare.

"Brother! You're back!" Lu Jinxin had been waiting here for a long time. She picked a basket of mushrooms in more than an hour. Later, she was really bored and was afraid that she would not be able to find the place if she walked too far, so she picked some wild vegetables here.

Seeing that she was waiting obediently, Lu Jinnian nodded with satisfaction. She liked obedient children.

"Let's go, let's go home."

A morning had passed and she was hungry now. Thinking of going back to eat wild game, she did not eat in the space.

(Please don't imitate, this is a novel, and wild game cannot be eaten in reality.)

The two went home happily, chatting on the way home, and time passed very quickly.

After arriving home, Lu Jinnian looked at the empty house with some doubts.

"You deal with these things, I will go find them." She handed all the things to Lu Jinxin and left alone.

Logically, the two brothers should be at home at this time. They had agreed that they must come back at meal time and can go out to work at other times.

But now it was meal time, but the two brothers were not at home.

After looking around, Lu Jinnian saw two figures by the river. He walked over and saw that they were the two brothers.

"What are you doing here?" She breathed a sigh of relief and approached them to let them go home.

But when they turned around, they found that both brothers had bruises on their faces.

There were also some scratches on different parts of their bodies.

"What happened?" Lu Jinnian's face turned cold and his tone changed.
