Shen Qiu rubbed her head, tears streaming down her face. She had been beaten by her mother twice today!
Wang Feng saw that her sister-in-law was scolded again, and tried hard not to laugh. In addition, she found something wrong around her. The vegetation here was too lush, and there were countless wild vegetables. It didn't look like the outer and central areas of the mountains at all.
She looked at Shen Yao and asked the question in her heart, "Yaoyao, are we in the deep mountains?"
Chen Lanhua also realized that although there were wild vegetables everywhere and they could fill up their belongings, what would they do if they encountered danger?
"Yaoyao, is it dangerous here? We are all women, and it will be troublesome if we encounter large prey." After saying this, she swallowed her saliva.
Shen Yao smiled faintly and comforted them: "Two sisters-in-law, you can dig wild vegetables without worry. I am here and I will protect you."
"You are so bold, girl, you even tricked me into coming to the mountains."
Xu Dani tapped Shen Yao's forehead, looking helpless. This devilish girl always liked to fool people, and no one knew where she learned this trick. This time, she even tricked everyone into coming to the mountains to dig wild vegetables.
Shen Qiu said confidently: "Mom, don't worry, I can protect you. I have been learning martial arts from Yaoyao for a month."
She has been trained by Yaoyao every day recently. Although she has not been learning for a long time, she is much better than before.
"With your three-legged cat kung fu, forget it. Yaoyao is much more reliable than you."
After Xu Dani finished complaining about her own daughter, she squatted down to dig wild vegetables. She asked her two daughters-in-law to start as well. There were so many wild vegetables and mushrooms here that they probably wouldn't be able to dig them all even if they filled up all the gear they brought.
"Humph, I will become very powerful sooner or later." Shen Qiu raised his fist angrily, silently thinking that he must impress his mother.
Shen Yao smiled and shook her head. She felt more and more that this girl and Tang Yunhao were a funny duo, and it would be fun to have these two together.
She pulled the sulking Shen Qiu and said to her with a smile, "Sister Qiu, hurry up and dig some wild vegetables. After you're done, we can get down the mountain earlier."
"Yaoyao, you know what, even though no one comes here, the wild vegetables are so tender and there are many kinds of them."
Wang Feng's face was full of smiles. After digging up the wild vegetables here, they would be able to get a lot of dried vegetables. Now the food at home is getting less and less. With the wild vegetables mixed in, the food can last longer.
"Yes, once we dig up the wild vegetables here, they will last for a while. Recently, many people in the village are running out of food, and they are in a turmoil every day because of stuttering."
Xu Dani sighed. Fortunately, her family had hidden some food before. Otherwise, they would not have survived until now. Many people in the village also hid food.
But those lazy ones don't care about anything at home. They eat as much as they can and are not active in working. They don't get much food at the end of the year. Now that they have no food to eat, it is common for the whole family to fight over food.
"That's right. We can always hear noises in the village recently. Several families have to rely on wild vegetables to survive. I don't know how long they can endure this." Chen Lanhua also nodded and said.
Her family was able to get by because her husband worked in the city and received a salary and food allowance every month. However, if things went on for a long time, it would not work.
Shen Yao didn't say anything, just quietly digging wild vegetables. She didn't sympathize with those people. They were all sneaky and cunning. They also had bad character. Such people didn't deserve her sympathy.
"Master, there is prey not far from here. Do you want to collect it?" Xiao Ling's voice came from space.
Shen Yao became interested when she heard this. If there was prey, she must take it back for a snack. She immediately released her mental power and saw a group of pheasants a few hundred meters away. There were quite a few pheasant eggs in the nest.
"Sister Xiaoqiu, follow me." After saying that, she picked up Baituanzi and pulled Shen Qiu towards the place where there was prey.
Shen Qiu was confused. She was squatting and digging wild vegetables when she was suddenly pulled up by Shen Yao. Seeing her happy face, she approached her and asked, "Yaoyao, what's wrong?"
Xu Dani saw the two of them suddenly run to one side. She raised her head and shouted at them, "Yaoyao, where are you two going? Be careful."
Shen Yao turned around and said to Xu Dani: "Auntie, we will be back soon, don't worry."
Although she could use her mental power to collect the space directly, it would be difficult to take it out later. In addition, she also wanted to test Shen Qiu's current level, so she pulled him along.
The two ran about 500 meters before stopping. Shen Yao looked at the pheasant nest in front of them. The pheasants were quite fat.
I just happened to dig a lot of mushrooms today, and I will use them to stew pheasant. Chicken stewed with mushrooms is a very delicious dish.
She pointed at the pheasants not far away and whispered to Shen Qiu: "Sister Qiu, do you see those pheasants? Let's have a competition and shoot the pheasants with stones to test your training results."
Shen Qiu looked in the direction the other person pointed, and saw a large group of pheasants in front of her. Her eyes widened. She swallowed and felt her saliva flowing out. There was so much meat.
"Yaoyao, let's start, so that we can have meat to eat today." After saying that, she started picking up small stones around.
Seeing the excited look on his face, Shen Yao didn't delay any longer and picked up a bunch of small stones. She gestured to Shen Qiu, and the small stones in the hands of both of them popped out at the same time.
Of course, our white ball was not idle either. Although it was small, it was very fast, constantly shuttling among the pheasants, and in the end it killed many more prey than Shen Qiu.
"Wow, Tuanzi, you are so capable. I can't even compare to you."
Shen Qiu looked at the pheasant on the ground, excitedly picked up the white ball and started kneading it in various ways. This ball was much stronger than her. She suddenly felt like a scum and was killed instantly by the white ball.
"Awooo——" the white ball responded with a proud look on its face. It is very powerful. When it grows up, it will definitely be much stronger than that phoenix. Then it will be able to take revenge.
"Sister Xiaoqiu, come over here and help tie up the pheasant and pack up the pheasant eggs so we can get back quickly."
Seeing Shen Qiu's happy face, Shen Yao interrupted her. She was afraid that if she delayed too long, her aunts and the others would get anxious.
Shen Qiu quickly put the dumpling on the ground and began to help tie up the pheasant. He then packed all the pheasant eggs, and the two returned the same way.
Seeing the three people still busy digging wild vegetables in front, Shen Qiu shouted proudly: "Mom, sisters-in-law, look what Yaoyao and I caught?" After saying that, she held the pheasant high.
"Hey, why are there so many pheasants? Are you two going to dig up pheasant nests?"
Xu Dani and the other two were delighted to see two people carrying a string of pheasants. There were more than a dozen pheasants and dozens of pheasant eggs. They were really lucky today.
Finally, everyone put the pheasants at the bottom of the basket and covered them with wild vegetables. This way, they would not be afraid even if they encountered villagers, because there were wild vegetables on top after all.
Nowadays, many people have no food to eat. If others find out that they have shot so many pheasants, they will be jealous. So it is better to be low-key when having meat.
