The two were so frightened that their legs and arms were weak and they couldn't stay there any longer, so they slid down the tree and went back.
Although Yue Jiuyue had made a small profit, it was nothing compared to her daily expenses of ten taels of silver. Moreover, she wanted to buy something for her family. Since she already had wild rabbits, pheasants were the most suitable. She glanced at Lin Chaodong, who was leading the way, and immediately bought a pheasant and threw it to Lin Chaodong.
"Sigh, old man..."
Just as Yue Jiuyue was about to remind Lin Chaodong, Lin Chaodong pounced and caught the pheasant.
After thinking for a moment, Yue Jiuyue bought two more pheasants, one male and one female. When Lin Chaodong tied up the pheasant and happily held it up for Yue Jiuyue to see, she threw it out one after another.
She did it on purpose, wanting to see if Lin Chaodong could catch her.
Moreover, while Lin Chaodong was catching pheasants, Yue Jiuyue bought a handful of eggs, fertilized eggs, along with a grass nest, and casually put them in a clump of grass.
Lin Chaodong was about to show his mother the pheasant he had caught when he saw another pheasant—no, two pheasants—before he could say anything. He didn't have time to speak anymore; he immediately put the pheasant in his hand into the basket on his back and went to catch the two pheasants.
Although the two pheasants were not easy to catch, they were much easier than the pheasants we had encountered before.
Although he didn't find any ginseng, he caught three pheasants, which made Lin Chaodong extremely happy. Even the fear he had just experienced from being threatened by the wild boar had completely disappeared.
"Mom, look! I caught three pheasants!"
Seriously, I was as happy as a child.
"Yeah, boss is really awesome!"
Yue Jiuyue praised him, though her words were inadequate.
She really has no experience as a mother and doesn't know how to soothe a child, let alone a child this big.
Lin Chaodong blushed at Yue Jiuyue's simple compliment. Well, it was a dark color that was barely noticeable, a dark reddish-black, a very ordinary color in this weather, so it was normal that Yue Jiuyue couldn't tell.
Lin Chaodong tried his best to suppress the wide grin that was stretching out from his face. Although it wasn't very effective, he still tried to straighten his expression, cleared his throat, and said:
"Mom, we caught three pheasants here. There should be a chicken coop around here. Let's look for it."
Yue Jiuyue hummed in agreement and then pretended to follow along in the search.
"Boss, we found the chicken coop, and there are eggs inside!"
Yue Jiuyue looked delighted as she held the chicken coop in both hands.
She carefully selected this chicken coop, even amidst her busy schedule, not one made of wheat stalks, but one made of weeds.
"So many eggs! They can sell for twelve coins!"
Lin Chaodong's first thought was to sell it for money, which earned him a rebuke from Yue Jiuyue.
"What are you selling? There are roosters and hens here. Who knows, these eggs might hatch into chicks in a few days."
Lin Chaodong thought to himself, "That makes sense. If we sell the eggs directly, we can only get twelve coins. But if we wait for the eggs to hatch into chicks, we'll have a whole flock of chickens and countless eggs!"
It seems he can't sell the three chickens he caught; he'll keep them at home to raise them, so they can continue to lay eggs and hatch chicks.
Lin Chaodong seemed to see an endless stream of chicks and an endless stream of eggs.
"Yes, we'll keep the eggs to hatch more chicks instead of selling them!"
Yue Jiuyue seemed to see that little shepherd boy.
