Ranran was closely followed by her five-year-old triplets: Yanyan, Xixi, and two two-and-a-half-year-old younger brothers, Chaoyang and Zhaoxu.
They were all full of anticipation and excitement, with innocent smiles on their little faces.
Also travelling with them were four majestic tigers, with agile bodies and bright fur.
One of them has a unique "king" pattern on its forehead, and its eyes are sharp yet gentle.
The stripes on the other one's body are like carefully painted patterns, and every step he takes appears steady and powerful.
There are also two smaller tigers who playfully play with each other from time to time, but they always stay by the children's side, as if they are their loyal guardians.
The sugar beans jumped up and down, looking very lively.
Its small and exquisite body is full of energy, and its furry tail curls and swings from time to time.
Its bright eyes rolled around as it curiously observed everything around it. From time to time, it reached out to scratch its little head, looking playful and cute.
Several colorful parrots were circling in the air, their feathers sparkling with colorful light in the sunlight.
One parrot has a bright red head and blue and green wings.
The other parrot has a golden belly and a dark purple back, which is very beautiful.
From time to time, they make clear and pleasant calls, as if cheering for the children's adventure.
When they arrived at the valley, Ranran and his friends excitedly began to prepare firewood.
Ranran was holding the pheasant and hare that the tiger had just caught. Faced with these prey, the children were at a loss because they didn't know how to pluck the feathers.
"What should we do?" Xixi asked, tilting her head.
Ranran gritted her teeth and said, "Let's just peel the skin off!"
So, the children began this unique "skinning operation".
Ranran struggled to fiddle with the knife in his hand, trying to skin a pheasant, but it was no easy task for the five-year-old boy.
Beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead and his hands trembled slightly.
Yanyan was gesturing anxiously, wanting to help but feeling a little overwhelmed.
Five-year-old Xixi opened her eyes wide and watched her brothers' actions curiously.
Two two-and-a-half-year-old little brothers, Chaoyang and Chaoxu, were playing on the grass nearby. Occasionally they would run over to take a curious look, then run away laughing.
The children in the village also gathered around, some helped to hold down the prey, and some handed tools. The scene was very lively.
"Oh no, I can't do it!" Ranran shouted anxiously.
At this time, the little sugar bean monkey ran over, squeaking, as if to cheer the children on.
It somersaulted a few times on the ground, then jumped onto Ranran's shoulder, reaching out to grab the knife, as if to say that it could do it.
The parrots were also circling in the air and shouting, "Come on, come on!"
After some effort, the children finally succeeded in peeling the skin.
Next, it’s time to make a fire and barbecue.
Ranran skillfully picked up a branch, knocked out sparks with a stone, carefully ignited the dry grass, and slowly started a bonfire.
The bonfire burned brighter and brighter, the red flames danced, reflecting the excited faces of the children.
Ranran skewered the processed pheasants and hares with sharpened branches, placed them over the fire and slowly rotated them.
The flames licked the prey, making a sizzling sound, and grease kept dripping, splashing small sparks in the fire.
The children sat around the campfire, their eyes fixed on the grill and their mouths drooling.
The pheasant gradually turned golden brown over the fire, small bubbles began to appear on its skin, and it emitted an enticing aroma.
Ranran carefully used a knife to cut several cuts on the pheasant so that the meat inside could cook faster.
The rabbit's ears curled up from being roasted, and the color of the rabbit meat gradually changed from pink to an attractive brown.
"Oh, is it almost ready? I can smell the fragrance!" a child said anxiously.
"Don't worry, it still needs to be baked for a while, otherwise the inside won't be cooked yet."
Ranran answered seriously, turning the grill constantly in her hands to ensure that every part was heated evenly.
The little sugar bean monkey was jumping around, scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously, as if he couldn't wait to taste this delicacy.
The parrots landed on nearby branches, muttering, "It's almost healed, it's almost healed!"
After a while, the surface of the pheasant and hare became golden and crispy, exuding a mouth-watering aroma.
Ranran carefully cut off a small piece of meat with a knife, tasted it, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's ready to eat!"
The children cheered and stretched out their hands, but they were so burned that they kept throwing their hands away.
Ranran smiled and distributed the roasted food to everyone. The children didn't care about the heat and ate it with big mouthfuls, their faces filled with satisfied and happy smiles.
In this beautiful valley, the children's laughter and the aroma of barbecue are intertwined, forming a picture full of vitality and joy.
After enjoying the delicious pheasants and rabbits, the children couldn't wait to have fun in this quiet valley.
The sunlight shines softly in the valley, as if giving everything a layer of warm gold.
A group of energetic little boys engaged in a fierce game of chase on an open lawn.
"Haha, come and catch me!" Yanyan, who was running the fastest, shouted while looking back.
"Don't run, I will catch you soon!" Feng Changshan responded from behind.
The girls looked much more elegant. They walked hand in hand among the colorful flowers.
They carefully selected the most beautiful flowers, gathered together, and used their delicate little hands to weave exquisite wreaths.
"I think this pink flower is the most beautiful. It will look great on your wreath." A little girl said to Xixi next to her.
"Really? That's great!" Xixi smiled happily.
The stream in the valley also became a playground for the children. Several children rolled up their trouser legs and stepped into the crystal clear stream.
"Oh, I think I touched a crab!" Chaoyang exclaimed in surprise.
"Catch it quickly, don't let it run away!" Chao Xu beside him shouted anxiously.
Some children scooped up cool stream water with their little hands and splashed it on each other. The crystal clear water droplets sparkled with colorful light under the sunlight.
"Haha, you're soaked!" Chaoyang said to Feng Afu with a smile.
"Hmph, you're almost there!" Feng~Afu fought back unwillingly.
On the hillside not far away, brave children are having an exciting hill climbing competition.
They used their hands and feet, clinging tightly to the grass roots and rocks on the hillside, and tried hard to climb up.
"Come on, come on!" the children below shouted in unison.
"I must be the first one to reach the top!" Yangyang gritted his teeth and encouraged himself.
The valley is filled with the carefree laughter of children, as if time has stopped for their happiness. This quiet valley is also full of vitality and vigor because of their presence.
