When the wild ducks came back and looked for the eggs in their nest, they found that all the eggs were gone.
The group of wild ducks instantly fell into chaos, running around and looking everywhere.
Seeing several wild ducks gathering together, Jiang Yanzhi made a quick decision, took off his coat, and pounced over.
When Zheng Xiulian saw her son taking action, she didn't bother to hide and rushed out with him.
Tang Xinyi stood in the corner without moving. She was not as agile as her husband, so she decided to wait and see.
Jiang Yanli had already rushed out when her elder brother took action, but unfortunately she didn't even touch the duck feathers, but was tripped by the duck and fell.
Tang Xinyi squatted in the corner, watching the scene over there, her eyes fixed on the wild ducks coming and going.
The wild ducks have begun to leave the area and try to swim towards the river.
A few others panicked and avoided the three people, rushing towards Tang Xinyi.
She had been prepared for this and waited motionlessly until the ducks rushed in front of her, then she pounced on them and caught both of them.
Although her clothes were dirty, she successfully caught the necks of the two ducks.
If it wasn't dark now, perhaps the two wild ducks wouldn't run towards it.
Tang Xinyi caught two ducks at once, and Jiang Yanzhi also caught two.
Even Zheng Xiulian caught one whose leg was broken by Jiang Yanli in a panic.
Only Jiang Yanli came away empty-handed, having gained nothing.
"Why is my luck so bad? I didn't catch any and even fell flat on my face."
Jiang Yanli looked at the others with a sense of despair. Everyone had gained something, but she had nothing.
"Yan Li, come and help me get one, I can't quite catch it!"
Tang Xinyi looked at the aggrieved little girl and felt a little sorry for her.
This little girl was the most active one in catching ducks, but unfortunately she was unlucky and caught nothing.
"Sister-in-law, I'm coming right away!"
When Jiang Yanli heard that she could help catch a duck, she ran to Tang Xinyi's side happily.
After handing the duck to the other party, Tang Xinyi felt a lot more relaxed.
"I didn't expect we'd have such a bountiful harvest tonight. If this happened every now and then, would we still be worried about having no meat to eat?"
Jiang Yanli was holding a duck and thinking proudly.
"What kind of sweet dream are you having? After what happened to these wild ducks tonight, they probably won't come back here for a long time!"
Jiang Yanzhi ruthlessly interrupted his sister's sweet dream.
It’s okay to dream, but if you daydream too much, you may lose your self-awareness.
If his young wife hadn't picked up wild duck eggs today, there would have been no action tonight.
If it weren't for tonight's action, there would be no such rich harvest.
A few people walked towards the village quietly, and when they arrived at the entrance, they saw flickering fire.
It looked like someone was standing at the entrance of the village smoking a pipe.
"father?"
Jiang Yanli tried to call out.
If their father hadn't been worried and came to look for them, the older brothers behind them would have had to hide their harvest.
If such a bountiful harvest fell into the eyes of the villagers, it would probably attract countless jealous gazes.
If we ask them to hand over the things at that time, they probably won’t be able to keep them all.
Jiang Yanli is not a fool, so naturally she would not be happy about handing it over to the public.
"You're finally back. If you don't come back soon, I'll go to the reed marsh to patrol you!"
When the village chief saw that his wife and children had returned, he put out the pipe in his hand.
"Dad, are you alone?"
Because there was a distance between them, neither side could see the other clearly.
"If it's not just me, who else could it be?"
Jiang Xian originally wanted to say that there were ghosts, but then he thought that it was late at night and he couldn't scare the children, so he changed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"It's good that it's just Dad, come and help us quickly!"
Hearing that only her father came, Jiang Yanli immediately called her father to come and help.
"Did you rob the wild duck's nest?"
Although it was dark, I could still see clearly from a close distance.
I didn't expect that this mother and daughter would bring back so many things after going out.
The old village chief also had a rare smile on his face.
It seems that during the upcoming busy farming season, the family won’t have to suffer from hunger.
Especially my own wife.
It’s okay if you don’t have to work on weekdays, but during the busy farming season, as long as you can still breathe, you have to go to the fields to work.
No one can hide, no one can escape.
He reached out and took the two wild ducks, and the whole family walked home neatly and happily.
While walking on the road, he kept looking around, afraid of being discovered by the villagers.
Only after returning home and closing the gate did the village chief and his family breathe a sigh of relief.
"There are so many wild duck eggs, maybe there are more than 100 of them?"
Jiang Xian looked at the bucket full of wild duck eggs, his heart filled with excitement.
"That should be about right. I'll pickle all these duck eggs later, and I won't have to worry about salted duck eggs for the rest of the year!"
In the end, because it was too late, Tang Xinyi and Jiang Yanli were sent back by the old couple.
Tomorrow is Tang Xinyi's first day at work, and it would be embarrassing if she was late.
The two old people still attach great importance to work.
Only Jiang Yanzhi was helped by the people left behind by the old couple. After Tang Xinyi washed up and went back to her room to sleep, she had no idea what happened next.
