Jiang Ci raised an eyebrow slightly. "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? Why would I argue with him?"
Sister-in-law Yu said, "I haven't seen you speak today."
Jiang Ci laughed and said, "We're together every day, why would we have so much to say?"
Upon hearing this, Sister-in-law Yu glanced at Jiang Ci again and again.
That being said, today's Jiang porcelain is clearly different from the Jiang porcelain of the past.
When Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli were together, they could talk for a long time. Especially when Jiang Ci was acting alone, Zhou Mingli would take care of her like his own daughter, preparing everything she needed and giving her a few more instructions before she left.
She's more talkative than an old woman.
But what about today?
Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli remained silent!
Is this normal? Not at all.
Jiang Ci wasn't used to confiding her feelings to others, so she smiled and reassured Sister-in-law Yu, "Don't worry, there's nothing between us."
"Let's hurry up the mountain and see what we can find, then pick it all!"
Jiang Ci was full of energy, her voice brimming with vitality.
Hearing this, Sister-in-law Yu also perked up. She exclaimed "Ah!" and walked up the mountain with a smile on her face.
This time, it was just the two women and four children who came, so they didn't plan to go deep into the mountains.
Even so, they took a longer route. After all, people often went up the mountain near their production team, and small animals didn't frequent that area. By taking a detour, they could get more items.
There are quite a few advantages to taking the wrong path. For example, Jiang Ci pointed to a tree and exclaimed, "Apples!"
Sister-in-law Yu couldn't help but laugh when she saw it. "Xiao Ci! Take a closer look, is that an apple?"
Jiang Ci thought so, and as she walked closer to take a look, her brows furrowed again.
Dazhu glanced at it and chuckled, "Aunt Jiang, that's a crabapple, not an apple! Aunt Jiang, do you want to eat an apple?"
Jiang Ci: "..."
Seeing Jiang Ci's stunned expression, Sister-in-law Yu chuckled, "You're a city kid, it's not unusual for you to mistake a crabapple for an apple!"
"This stuff is so delicious! It's crunchy and sweet, absolutely delicious!"
Jiang Ci: "..."
Crisp and sweet, who would believe it's not an apple?
Jiang Ci obediently shut her mouth, resolutely refusing to say anything more when faced with something she didn't recognize.
It's not only stupid, but also embarrassing.
After Sister-in-law Yu finished speaking, she called Dazhu to climb the tree and pick sand fruit.
In no time, Dazhu climbed up the tree and picked quite a few.
The two children, Zhou Miao and Zhou Yang, each held a crabapple and took a bite without even wiping it.
Zhou Yang: "Ptooey! Waaah, Mom! It's sour!"
Zhou Yang's eyes were swollen from crying, and the sourness of the sand fruit made his face contort.
I patted his head and silently gave him the crabapple I had in my hand.
"Eat this, it's sweet."
Zhou Yang took a bite rather reluctantly.
Hmm~ Her eyes lit up, and they looked sweet!
Zhou Miao said from the side, "Brother is so embarrassing, he even cried when he ate something sour."
Zhou Yang munched on the crabapple, humphing, "He's not crying at all."
Jiang Ci threw Zhou Yang's half-eaten crabapple in a parabolic arc.
Suddenly, I heard a clucking sound.
Jiang Ci suddenly turned her head to look at the spot where the sand fruit had fallen.
"Ouch!" Jiang Ci reacted quickly and even faster, lunging forward in an instant.
Jiang Ci grabbed the thing's wings!
It was still struggling when Jiang Ci suddenly pressed down on its neck.
It couldn't escape, it clucked and howled, but it was all useless wailing.
Jiang Ci caught the pheasant with her bare hands!
Dazhu, Erzhu, and Sister-in-law Yu were dumbfounded.
Zhou Miao and Zhou Yang opened their eyes wide and looked at Jiang Ci with immense admiration.
Dazhu and Erzhu shouted excitedly, "Aunt Jiang, you're amazing!"
Zhou Yang and Zhou Miao shouted excitedly, "We're going to have chicken to eat!"
Jiang Ci smiled smugly. "How about it? I'm pretty good, aren't I?"
Sister-in-law Yu gave Jiang Ci a thumbs up.
That's more than just good, it's absolutely amazing!
You should know that pheasants are very difficult to catch. These creatures are fast and can fly. Only hunters in the production team who know how to hunt and make traps can catch them.
Jiang Ci was incredibly lucky; the crabapple she threw hit the pheasant squarely, and the pheasant darted out of the bushes in a flash.
Jiang Ci looked at the pheasant in her hand, then at the spot where it had come from, and squinted, saying, "Sister-in-law, do you think this pheasant isn't running away? Is it watching something?"
Sister-in-law Yu suddenly understood.
"Dazhu and Erzhu, you two hurry over and go look for them."
"Okay!"
The two boys, both teenagers, immediately ran out.
I looked around in the bushes, and oh dear!
As expected!
The pheasant clucked.
"Mom! Aunt Jiang! There are so many wild eggs here!!"
pheasant:!
Its offspring!!!
Jiang Ci and Sister-in-law Yu went over to take a look and found that there were indeed quite a few.
There must be seven or eight!
They quickly collected the wild eggs as well. They had just entered the mountains and already had wild eggs and a pheasant. They were really lucky today.
A contented smile appeared on Jiang Ci's face, sweeping away the gloom in her heart. "Let's have chicken stew with mushrooms tonight!"
Erzhu asked shamelessly, "Aunt Jiang, can I have a piece of chicken?"
Jiang Ci waved his hand and said with a smile, "If we can find the rabbit hole and catch a rabbit today, we'll eat our fill of meat tonight!"
"good!"
Eat meat to your heart's content!
Dazhu and Erzhu perked up and immediately began searching for the rabbit hole.
