Jiang Ling, who had been single her entire life, never expected to wake up and find herself transmigrated to a place called Lujia Village during a devastating famine year.
Facing a family ful...
"Auntie, your Yaojie is so lucky! He actually found a rabbit while digging for 'horse bells'! I'm so envious!" The one who said this was Zhao Erleng's son, Zhao Dabao, who was about the same age as Jiang Yaojie. He was staring at the rabbit in Jiang Yaojie's hand with great envy.
"Auntie, are you having meat tonight?" Lu Dewang's son, Lu Shandian, asked, his mouth watering.
"Yaojie, give me the rabbit!" Jiang Ling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Jiang Yaojie was alright.
Jiang Yaojie nodded expressionlessly and placed the rabbit in Jiang Ling's hand. Jiang Ling tossed the rabbit in her hand, and sure enough, in a famine year, this little guy didn't have much meat on him.
[Beep: Wild rabbit spotted. Price: 200 copper coins per pound]
[Having acquired a wild rabbit, weighing 1.5 jin (approximately 725 grams), should you choose to sell it?]
The system notification sounded in Jiang Ling's mind again. Jiang Ling was secretly surprised when she heard it. She never expected that wild rabbits would be so valuable in the mall. She quietly stuffed the rabbit into her basket and joined the ranks of potato diggers.
The afterglow of the setting sun bathed the originally azure sky, and everyone's bodies were gilded with a faint golden light.
The village chief wiped the sweat from his brow, glanced at the sky, and said to everyone, "Let's stop here for now. There will be wolves in the mountains tonight, so let's hurry down!"
Upon hearing this, everyone reluctantly shouldered their baskets and headed down the mountain.
Jiang Ling and Jiang Yaojie were also in the group. Jiang Ling glanced at Jiang Yaojie's basket full of potatoes and said with heartache, "It must be heavy, why don't you carry mine?"
Jiang Yaojie shook his head without saying anything, and Jiang Ling sighed helplessly without saying anything more.
Just as everyone disappeared into the back mountain, a woman with a full head of white hair appeared at the place where Jiang Ling had been digging monkey head mushrooms, leading a crying little boy.
"Mommy! Mommy, my rabbit, my rabbit!" the little boy said, pouting with a wronged expression.
The white-haired woman lovingly stroked the little boy's head and said softly, "Never mind, never mind, I'll find you another one later..."
