Jiang Wanqing took out a machete from her basket and swung it hard. The pheasant, still smug, was struck by Jiang Wanqing's powerful blow and fell to the ground, dying instantly. She walked over, threw the pheasant and the machete into her basket, and happily went home. She could have an extra meal tonight.

The taste of this wild pheasant later turned out to be quite expensive, costing several hundred yuan per kilogram.

Next time, she'll need to make a simple arrow to catch wild rabbits. Stir-frying rabbit heads would be a delicious treat.

After returning home, Jiang Wanqing began to prepare pheasant soup.

I am a girl from the countryside. My family has always been poor. We live in a small, dilapidated house at the foot of a mountain. There are five children in the family, and I am the eldest.

My home was in the suburbs, not far from the city center. It was a stark contrast to the city; it was very poor and desolate. My family lived in a leaky room. At that time, I longed for a home.

As the eldest in the family, I have always been under a lot of pressure and have to do a lot of housework. It is also my fault when I quarrel with my sisters because my father calculated that my birth chart is unlucky for him. Every time business is not good, he will beat or scold me. I have endured this since I was a child.

I want a warm home, I want salvation, to get rid of that kind of life, so I don't have to go to school wearing only one piece of clothing in winter anymore.

At that time, my longing for a home reached its extreme. I wanted a house with tiled floors, a separate room, and a god-like man. Of course, these were all unattainable dreams.

I always knew that other girls wore beautiful clothes and new shoes, while I only had hand-me-down clothes and a pair of shoes with holes in them.

I wanted to study hard and earn money, but at that time I saw my neighbor's daughter get married. The groom started coming in a car to deliver gifts. I was envious. I thought that if I could marry into a good family, I would definitely live a life without worries about food and clothing.
