"Third brother, I just feel a little sorry. When we start farming on our own in the future, we will definitely plant more sweet potatoes."
"Sweet potatoes are not only drought-resistant but also have a high yield. Most importantly, they're delicious. Whether you make sweet potato porridge, roasted sweet potatoes, or fried sweet potato chips, they're all delicious."
"Yiyi, stop drooling."
Yun Yiyi rolled her eyes at Third Brother Yun and said, "I'm not the type of person who drools like some people."
Unconvinced, Third Brother Yun deliberately ruffled Yun Yiyi's hair, but was glared at and pushed aside by Second Brother Yun.
Brother Yun carefully re-braided Yun Yiyi's hair into two small braids. "Okay, Yiyi, your hair is no longer messy."
Yun Yiyi hugged Second Brother Yun's arm and rubbed it, "Second Brother, you still love me."
Second Brother Yun smiled gently.
Yun Yiyi hurriedly stood up straight, "Oh, by the way, I have another important announcement to make."
"Brother, brother, I didn't find this sweet potato on purpose. I found it by chance while looking for the rabbit hole."
"Yiyi, why are you looking for a rabbit hole? Are there rabbits in this valley?" After saying this, Third Brother Yun turned his head and looked around.
Brother Yun was also surprised, "Yiyi, did you find any rabbits in the valley?"
"Yiyi, are there really rabbits in the valley?" Second Brother Yun asked curiously.
"Yiyi, are we going to catch rabbits later?" Xie Zirui was eager to try.
Yun Yiyi took two steps back and said, "Brothers, I found traces of rabbits near the spring. That's why I thought of going out to look for them."
"Besides, today is Big Brother's birthday. If we catch a rabbit, we can have a meat dish tonight."
Brother Yun San asked anxiously, "Yiyi, how many rabbit holes have you looked for? Did you find any?"
Yun Yiyi glanced at Third Brother Yun and said, "Third Brother, don't worry. I've searched the entire valley."
"We've only found two rabbit holes. So there's no guarantee we can catch a rabbit. But we'll have to try to find out."
"Brother, do you have a flint? It's faster for us to smoke."
Brother Yun laughed out loud. "I brought the kindling, and I also brought a sickle. If we catch any rabbits, we can clean them up right away since there's a spring here."
When everyone heard this, they all laughed happily.
"Brother, go cut two bales of hay, and we'll go smoke the rabbit holes later."
"Second brother, third brother, pour out the wild vegetables in the basket. We'll use the baskets to block the other rabbit holes later."
"Yiyi, what should I do?" Xie Zirui looked at Yun Yiyi excitedly.
Yun Yiyi was a little helpless. "I got it, Brother Zirui, let's smoke the rabbit hole with hay later."
"Okay, I'll definitely watch carefully. This is my first time watching someone catch a rabbit."
"Brother Zirui, I'm telling you, catching rabbits is really fun."
Brother Yun and the others watched the two little kids chatting happily, and then went about their own business.
"Yiyi, big brother has cut the hay. Where is the rabbit hole?" Brother Yun San asked anxiously.
"Big brother, you're so fast. Big brother, you hold a bundle of hay. Second brother, third brother, take your empty baskets and follow me."
Yun Yiyi led the way and soon they arrived at the first place with a rabbit hole she was looking for.
"Yiyi, if you don't look carefully, you really can't find this place."
"Brother, let me tell you, I was just greedy for rabbits, that's why I looked so carefully."
"Yiyi, it's not just you who craves rabbits; we all do too."
Yun Yiyi pointed out several rabbit holes to everyone. Then Brother Yun and the others each guarded a rabbit hole. Essentially, they just covered the entrance with a basket.
When the rabbits can no longer bear the smoke, they will run out of their holes. However, there are several rabbit holes, so you must keep an eye on each one.
Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui came to the entrance of the hole where the rabbits were most active. She used a flint to light the hay and then stuffed it into the rabbit hole.
Yun Yiyi kept stuffing hay into the rabbit hole.
"Yiyi, there's smoke coming out of the rabbit hole on my side."
"Yiyi, there's smoke coming out of the hole on my side too."
"Yiyi, smoke is starting to come out of the hole on my side too."
When Yun Yiyi heard everyone say that smoke was coming out of the remaining holes, she stopped stuffing hay into the rabbit holes.
However, there was a lot of hay stuffed in there just now, so it would take some time to burn it all. So, Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui squatted at the entrance of the rabbit hole.
Then, the two of them would stuff hay into the rabbit hole from time to time.
Xie Zirui asked curiously, "Yiyi, when will the rabbit come out?"
"Brother Zirui, wait a few more minutes. However, there is burning firewood at the entrance of our cave, so they won't go through this entrance."
"If you want to see rabbits, go to the eldest brother, the second brother, or the third brother."
Xie Zirui thought about it and ran to Brother Yun.
"Big brother, second brother, third brother, hold on to the basket. I think the rabbit will come out soon."
Brother Yun San said excitedly, "I wonder which hole the rabbit will come out of?"
"Who knows? No matter which hole it comes out from, we just have to guard the hole." Second Brother Yun held the basket and stared at the hole.
"Yiyi, I hope the rabbit will come out from the hole on big brother's side. I haven't seen the little rabbit yet." Xie Zirui said excitedly.
"Brother Zirui, please don't go catching rabbits. Wild rabbits are very fierce. They will scratch and bite people."
"Okay, then I'll watch first." Xie Zirui said disappointedly.
Yun Yiyi suddenly heard some movement in the rabbit hole and hurriedly reminded, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, the rabbit is about to come out, watch carefully."
As soon as Yun Yiyi finished speaking, a big rabbit came out of the cave on Brother Yun's side.
"Yiyi, come quickly, there is a rabbit coming out of the hole over here." Xie Zirui's face flushed with excitement.
"Here they are, here they are." Yun Yiyi hurried over to Brother Yun. There were already two rabbits in the basket, one big and one small.
"Yiyi, a big rabbit also came out of the cave on my side." Brother Yun San shouted loudly.
So, Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui ran to Brother Yun San excitedly to see the rabbit.
"Third brother, this big rabbit must be four or five pounds, enough for us to have a meal."
Third Brother Yun glanced at Yun Yiyi and said, "Yiyi, let me tell you, in my eyes, this is spicy rabbit and braised rabbit."
After hearing what Third Brother Yun said, Xie Zirui and Yun Yiyi were drooling with envy.
"Yiyi, two little rabbits came out of the hole on my second brother's side."
So, Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui ran to Brother Yun's side again.
"Brother, these two little rabbits are not small anymore. Each one weighs more than two kilograms. They should be edible."
