Chapter 74 Such a strange scene
Su Nuan threw the leaves one by one, and the deer stared at her after eating them until more leaves fell to the ground.
After two quarters of an hour, Xiaobai heard a tiger roar from not far away.
Soon, there were sounds of animals running around in panic, and birds in the sky were flying around cursing.
There were even birds that were knocked unconscious and fell to the ground, kicking their legs a few times before stopping.
As a flying bird, perhaps the most frustrating way to die is to fall to death.
Su Nuan was ready. When she saw three deer running towards her, she immediately took out a rope, lassoed the deer in front of her, and pulled them into the space.
The three deer, one big and two small, were stunned and motionless when they saw the male deer disappear. Su Nuan took the opportunity to put them into the space as well.
She clapped her hands and laughed, "This time we've caught them all. A family of four, all neatly arranged and ready to be used as medicine."
Xiaobai glanced sideways, lowered his head and ate the fallen bird.
Su Nuan returned to the carriage carrying the cabbages. She said happily, "Mom, there are so many cabbages. Can we pickle them?"
The old lady said, "You can pickle it and make it into sauerkraut. It's delicious when you stew meat with a handful of sauerkraut."
Su Nuan was greedy. She remembered sauerkraut. In the north, there were almost no vegetables in winter. In autumn, Xue followed the old lady to pickle sauerkraut, which was really delicious.
She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go see how much salt is left."
She rummaged around in the back of the carriage and took the opportunity to pull out five pounds of coarse salt.
"Mom, grandma, this is all I have, is that okay?"
The old lady said, "Since your vegetables weigh less than 100 kilograms, half a kilogram of salt will be enough."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay."
The old lady and Mrs. Xue took action and asked Cheng Feng for a few 50-jin wine jars to pickle sauerkraut.
Split the cabbage into four halves before pickling, otherwise it will be difficult to make it quickly.
Su Nuan watched the pickling process and asked, "I remember that the pickled cabbage in Beijing is not like this."
Xue replied, "Kyoto's pickled vegetables are different from this. This is the northern pickling method."
The old lady nodded. "That's right. I used to have a nanny from the north. The pickled cabbage she made was delicious. I wonder if we can make it this time."
Su Nuan comforted him, "It's okay. We put so much salt in it, you can eat it as a pickle."
The sauerkraut added with river water should not go bad, so just wait and eat it.
At the same time, Cheng Feng had already talked about buying a carriage and having everyone work, and no one objected.
Because objection is invalid, if you don’t want to work, you can’t take the bus, and if you want to take the bus, you must work.
Su Nuan jumped directly onto the carriage to check the terrain. There was nothing interesting in front, just endless wasteland.
She had been to the low hill on the left before, and the hill on the right was higher, so she jumped off the carriage and went to the right with her bow and arrow.
Ling Yun followed immediately.
Su Nuan didn't drive him away. "Have you told mother?"
Ling Yun nodded and said, "I said, my mother asked me to help my sister-in-law."
Su Nuan didn't say much. She didn't want to go far today and just walked around nearby.
But she didn't expect that there were so many precious medicinal herbs on the cliffs of the mountains. She collected several Ganoderma lucidum and more than a dozen ginseng plants of different sizes.
Su Nuan touched his chin and said, "I didn't expect there were so many medicinal herbs. It's a pity that we can't collect them all. It would be great if we could stay for a few more days."
It was impossible to stay for a few more days. She was just talking. It was impossible to stay for a few more days.
According to Cheng Feng's idea, he might want to reach the last town before the heavy snow falls, replenish supplies and then move on.
Cheng Feng didn't say a word the whole way. He was so shocked that he didn't need to pretend. He looked so stupid.
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Do you want to eat something delicious?"
Ling Yun nodded, "Yeah, yeah, I want to eat."
Su Nuan took out a piece of Codonopsis pilosula and said, "Here, eat it. If you chew it carefully, you will taste the sweetness."
Ling Yun, "..." Do you really think I'm stupid?
But he still pulled out a little ginseng root and put it into his mouth. After chewing it carefully, he actually tasted a hint of sweetness.
Su Nuan smiled and said, "I wasn't kidding you, there are also these sweet grass roots, you can chew them as snacks."
Ling Yun lowered his head and found a handful of washed grass roots in his hand. He didn't even notice when Su Nuan washed them.
Never mind, as long as there is something to eat, it will definitely fill your mouth.
Su Nuan took Ling Yun for a walk in the mountains, and when they were hungry, they roasted wild rabbits on the mountain.
In the afternoon, Su Nuan discovered a mountain stream. The pool was not big, but there were fish in it.
Su Nuan said to Ling Yun, "Go find some strong hay and tie the fish with it later."
Ling Yun was unhappy. He knew that they were trying to get him out of the way, but he still obediently went to find hay.
Su Nuan put his hand in the water and led the fish in the space into the pond.
The fish living in the space river suddenly entered a place full of bitter water. They all jumped to the surface of the water, trying to find a comfortable environment.
When Ling Yun came back, he saw such a strange scene, but he just stared at it blankly and did not show any particular shock.
Su Nuan smiled and said, "Come on, I want to go fishing."
As she spoke, she swung the wooden stick in her hand and swept the fish jumping out of the water to the shore. Soon, there were more than a dozen big fish lying on the shore.
Perhaps drinking too much river water can make your brain grow. A few fish realized that something was wrong and they sank to the bottom of the water.
Su Nuan didn't care about these fish, so she twisted the grass into a rope and tied the fish into a bow shape.
Ling Yun took the stick from Su Nuan's hand, put the fish on the stick and carried it.
Su Nuan also held two big fish in each hand.
"Let's go back. Marinate these fish and hang them by the car to dry. You can eat them later."
Ling Yun nodded. He was already numb. Whatever his sister-in-law said was right.
Su Nuan smiled and said, "This amount of fish is enough for you to eat for a while. It's a pity that there is no seasoning, otherwise it would be delicious if it was made into hand-shredded fish."
Ling Yun's heart skipped a beat. Sister-in-law knew that she liked to eat fish? So she caught all these fish specially for her?
At that moment, Ling Yun felt a sweet warmth in his heart, and he even felt a little dizzy when walking.
Su Nuan suddenly slapped Ling Yun on the shoulder and said, "Second brother, do you know what kind of animals might be in that wasteland ahead?"
Ling Yun felt a heavy blow on his shoulder, and the happiness that had just risen in his heart was instantly shattered.
He shook his head, "I don't know, ask my eldest brother."
Su Nuan's eyes lit up, "Yes... go back and ask your eldest brother."
After saying that, she quickened her pace.
Ling Yun lowered his head, feeling an indescribable feeling of loss in his heart.
The two returned to the carriage. Su Nuan threw the fish away, got into the carriage and asked, "Husband, are you awake?"
Ling Cang, who had been pretending to sleep, opened his eyes and asked, "Awake, what happened?"
Su Nuan sat next to him and asked, "There's only wasteland ahead. Are there any animals in such a terrain?"
Ling Cang thought for a moment and said, "Pheasants, partridges, rabbits... there will be a lot of small animals like these."
"Don't underestimate the barrenness of the grassland. Sometimes there are hidden rivers or pools beneath the grass where you can find small fish."
Su Nuan was overjoyed. "It turns out this kind of terrain is rich in food. I don't have to worry about starving anymore."
Ling Cang smiled slightly, "But, that kind of terrain is also dangerous."
