Then, Yun Yiyi carefully slid down the tree. To be honest, it was a bit tiring. If Zhang saw it, she would definitely nag at her for a long time.
"Yiyi, I also have four eggs in this bird's nest. We are so lucky today. We can roast the eggs and eat them later."
"Third brother, there are four more bird eggs. That's great."
After Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she found another tree with a bird's nest on it and began to climb up. However, when she climbed up, she found two fluffy little birds in the nest, but no eggs.
Yun Yiyi carefully touched the bird and then slid down the tree carefully.
"Third brother, there are no eggs in the bird's nest on the tree I just climbed. There are only two baby birds. What a pity."
"It's okay, Yiyi. If we look for a few more bird nests, we'll definitely find eggs."
"Got it, Third Brother."
Next, Yun Yiyi and Yun San Ge each found several bird nests and fifteen bird eggs.
Including the eight bird eggs found before, the two people found a total of twenty-three bird eggs.
"Yiyi, don't rob the bird's nest. Go back quickly. Otherwise, big brother will get angry."
After saying this, Third Brother Yun pulled Yun Yiyi, who was about to rob a bird's nest.
"Third brother, let me go, I will walk by myself."
After Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she looked back at the woods behind her reluctantly.
"Third brother, I haven't had enough fun yet."
Third Brother Yun patted Yun Yiyi's shoulder and said, "Yiyi, it's getting late now. Let's go back first. When we have time, Third Brother will take you to dig out the bird's nest."
Yun Yiyi sighed weakly, "Okay then."
Why is it that Yun Yiyi usually likes to play with Third Brother Yun the most?
Isn’t it because Third Brother Yun likes to play too, so he takes Yun Yiyi along to play.
If Big Brother Yun and Second Brother Yun came along, they would definitely not be able to help but nag Yun Yiyi.
The two of them quickly returned to the sweet potato field.
"Big brother, second brother, I'm back. Third brother and I got a lot of bird eggs."
"Yiyi, you're getting bolder and climbing trees again. Third brother, why don't you keep an eye on us?"
After saying this, Big Brother Yun deliberately glared at Third Brother Yun.
Third Brother Yun was in the wrong and didn't dare to reply.
Second Brother Yun put down his hoe and came over. "Yiyi, how many bird eggs did you and your third brother get? Are they enough for us to share?"
Yun Yiyi said excitedly, "Big Brother, Second Brother, we've got 23 bird eggs in total, which is definitely enough for us to share."
Brother Yun patted Yun Yiyi's shoulder gently and said, "Yiyi, you are amazing."
"Third brother, you go ahead and dig some sweet potatoes. I'll go roast them for you guys."
"Here I come, big brother."
Brother Yun San went to dig sweet potatoes very consciously.
After looking at the bird eggs, Brother Yun went to dig sweet potatoes.
Only Brother Yun took a sickle and chose a place not far from the sweet potato field.
He first cut all the grass nearby and put it aside.
Then he used a hoe to draw a big circle, and then dug out a circular groove along the big circle.
"Brother, we don't need such a big place, right?"
"Yiyi, there's too much grass on the mountain now. We have to dig out a barrier, otherwise it's easy to catch fire."
"That would be too dangerous."
Yun Yiyi praised loudly, "Brother, you are so thoughtful."
"Haha, Yiyi, you have to be careful when using fire in the mountains. There are so many grasses and trees on the mountain. If a fire starts, it will be difficult to put out and it will easily hurt the animals on the mountain."
"Yeah, big brother, I remember it."
Brother Yun quickly dug the ditch, and then he dug a big hole in the center of the circle.
However, the pit was not deep, so it was dug quickly.
Next, Brother Yun placed hay in the pit and placed dead tree branches on top.
Feeling that he had put in a lot of fire, he used a flint to ignite the hay underneath.
Soon, the hay caught fire. Fortunately, he put a lot of hay, and the branches on top were slowly ignited.
"Yiyi, you stay here and watch the fire. I'll go dig sweet potatoes. When the branches above are burned out, call me and then I'll put the sweet potatoes and bird eggs in."
Yun Yiyi sat next to the fire and said, "Brother, go and do your work. I'll stay here and watch over the fire."
Brother Yun turned around and went to dig sweet potatoes.
The sweet potatoes are not very big, but in order not to miss any, we have to dig them slowly.
So, Brother Yun and the others dug sweet potatoes and picked them into the basket.
After more than ten minutes, Yun Yiyi saw that the firewood was almost burned out, so she turned around and called out to Brother Yun, "Brother, the firewood is all burned out."
"Got it, I'll be right over."
Big Brother Yun then asked Second Brother Yun, "Second Brother, how many sweet potatoes do you want to eat? And you, Third Brother, how many sweet potatoes do you want to eat?"
"Brother, I want two sweet potatoes."
"Brother, I want two sweet potatoes too."
"Brother, let me eat two sweet potatoes too."
"I heard you, Yiyi. Let's bake eight sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are best baked fresh. If eight sweet potatoes are not enough, we can bake more."
"Sure, big brother. Just watch over and bake it."
Brother Yun nodded, then picked out eight sweet potatoes as big as an adult's palm.
He took the sweet potato and put it down next to the fire. Then he went to the bushes and found a few large leaves.
"Brother, are you looking for Big Leaf to get bird eggs?"
"Yiyi, you're so smart. If you roast the bird's eggs directly, they'll burst open. But if you wrap them in leaves, they'll be fine."
"Brother, you know so much." Yun Yiyi looked at Brother Yun with shining eyes.
"Hey, anyone who's often in the mountains knows this, Yiyi. If I take you to the mountains to eat a few times, you'll learn how to do it, too."
Yun Yiyi nodded happily, "Brother, I like eating in the mountains."
"It's a pity that the mountain we came from is too far away, so it's not convenient to bring a pot. If it were not far away, we could bring a small pot and stir-fry vegetables or make soup."
"Brother, there's no rush. Once we're settled down, we'll have more time to go up the mountain."
"I hope we can reach our destination soon. It will be cold tomorrow and the road will be difficult to travel."
"Besides, in winter, sleeping on a kang is the warmest."
"Brother, I don't think there's anything fast."
"Yeah, I know. I was just nagging a little."
Brother Yun wrapped the twenty-three bird eggs in four large leaves.
In order to prevent the bird eggs from being burned and cracked, Brother Yun deliberately wrapped the eggs with several layers of large leaves and tied them up with grass.
Then, Brother Yun used a wooden stick to push the charcoal in the pit that was still emitting sparks to the side, and then he put eight big sweet potatoes into the pit.
He was afraid that the sweet potatoes would not be cooked through, so he left a layer of charcoal at the bottom of the pit. Then he covered the sweet potatoes with a thick layer of charcoal.
As for the large leaf containing the bird's egg, he also placed it on top of the charcoal. The large leaf was also covered with a thick layer of charcoal.
