Zhou Bin picked up the pheasant and found dozens of pheasant eggs in the grass nest.
Zhou Bin was so happy that he shouted, "Xiao Nan, come here quickly, there are a lot of pheasant eggs here!"
Xiao Nan also noticed the movement from Zhou Bin's side at this time and hurried over.
When she saw what Zhou Bin was holding, she was stunned.
Zhou Bin immediately asked her to pick up all the pheasant eggs. Then Zhou Bin processed the pheasant, roasted it over the fire, and buried the eggs in the ashes.
After a while, the pheasant meat was cooked and the pheasant eggs were also cooked.
Zhou Bin quickly tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Xiaonan, asking her to taste it first.
Xiao Nan looked at the tender muscles in front of him and his mouth was watering.
She carefully took the chicken, took a bite, and was immediately attracted by the delicious taste.
Although there is no seasoning, it tastes extremely delicious.
Zhou Bin peeled another egg and handed it to her so that she could eat some.
Xiao Nan took the egg and took a bite. It was so delicious that it made her feel dizzy.
Then Xiao Nan ate without hesitation, and it really looked like he hadn't eaten for a year.
Zhou Bin watched her eat with great relish, then he picked up the chicken and started eating.
The two of them had no time to talk at this time, they just kept putting the chicken and eggs into their mouths.
The feeling of being hungry was so unbearable that the two of them devoured the entire pheasant in no time.
They even ate five or six eggs each, and Xiao Nan was finally full.
Zhou Bin also felt his stomach felt better. Suddenly, Xiao Nan's eyes turned red and tears started flowing.
Zhou Bin was just happy to have a full meal when he suddenly found Xiaonan crying. He was a little surprised and asked, "Xiaonan, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Nan said with tears in her eyes: "Husband, I am so happy. You are finally well, and I can eat meat now."
Looking at Xiaonan's happy face, Zhou Bin felt sad.
Poor girl, I don’t know what has happened to her that such a little thing makes her so happy.
Zhou Bin couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Nan, what happened? Tell me, I can't remember anything at all."
Xiao Nan looked at Zhou Bin's sincere expression and finally couldn't hold back any more: "Husband, you really don't remember anything? They are so cruel!"
Xiao Nan started crying again, and Zhou Bin hurriedly comforted her: "Don't cry, tell me first, what happened?"
Xiao Nan then narrated the whole story in tears. It turned out that just half a month ago, her husband Zhou Bin went to work for Mr. Wang's family in the city.
Logically, Zhou Bin should have received two hundred cents in wages for working in their house.
But after the work was completed, they suddenly turned against their promise and refused to pay Zhou Bin.
Zhou Bin ran to argue with them and was beaten by the evil slaves of the Wang family. He was beaten so severely that he couldn't even stand up.
At this time Xiao Nan, who learned the news, ran over and rescued her husband.
At that time, Zhou Bin's injuries were very serious and he could hardly hold on.
In order to save her husband, Xiao Nan had no choice but to borrow 100 coins from the town's evil young man, Mr. Liu, and find a doctor to treat her husband.
But Master Liu was attracted by Xiaonan's beauty and wanted to take her for himself.
So he readily agreed to Xiaonan's request and gave her a hundred coins.
With this money, Xiaonan can save Zhou Bin.
But Master Liu told her that his money had to be paid with interest, and she had to pay back five taels of silver within ten days, otherwise Xiaonan would pay off the debt with her own body.
Xiao Nan had no choice but to agree.
Unexpectedly, only eight days had passed and Master Liu sent someone to collect the debt, which led to what happened just now.
After listening to Xiao Nan's words, Zhou Bin was so angry that his lungs exploded.
Isn't this bullying? How can you work without getting paid and beat people up?
And that Young Master Liu, who lent Xiao Nan a hundred coins, actually dared to ask for five taels of silver in repayment. Isn't this blatant robbery?
Zhou Bin couldn't help but stood up. Xiao Nan was shocked when she saw him. She quickly pulled him back and said, "Husband, don't be angry. Sit down and listen to me."
After Xiao Nan's persuasion, Zhou Bin calmed down and sat down by the fire.
Xiao Nan said with tears in her eyes: "Husband, don't be angry, we can't fight them. They are rich and powerful, and we are poor and powerless, how can we fight them? Let's just forget it."
Zhou Bin saw that Xiao Nan was very scared and knew that she was worried about him.
Zhou Bin knew in his heart that he couldn't beat the other person for the time being, but he was just not convinced.
Later, with Xiao Nan's consolation, Zhou Bin gradually calmed down.
He asked some more questions about himself, because he knew nothing about himself.
Xiaonan told him that his parents died early and he was alone, with no one left at home.
Xiaonan's situation is the same; her family members are long gone.
Now Zhou Bin and Xiao Nan can be said to be dependent on each other and live a hard life every day.
After hearing this, Zhou Bin couldn't help but sigh. His life story was so pitiful.
The two sat in front of the fire and talked until very late, then fell into a deep sleep.
Because there was a campfire in front of them, wild animals did not dare to approach, so they spent the night safely.
The next day, they continued their journey through the mountains.
When I was hungry, I ate pheasants and eggs; when I was thirsty, I drank spring water.
In this way, the two of them traveled all the way for more than half a month and finally arrived at a town.
After running around for many days, the two were already exhausted, like beggars.
