the next day,
Because today was a holiday, everyone got up late. The big bones that Wen Nuan brought back yesterday had been stewed all night, and the soup was milky white. Everyone happily drank a big bowl of bone soup and ate a boiled potato, and breakfast was over.
After breakfast, the male educated youth prepared to go up the mountain to collect more firewood. The wheat harvest would be in a few days, and the labor intensity would be high. They did not plan to collect firewood after work as that would be too tiring.
The weather was very good today, with plenty of sunshine, so the female educated youth took out their bedding to dry in the sun.
After drying, there was nothing to do, so they discussed it and decided to go up the mountain to dig some wild vegetables.
Wen Nuan thought that it had been half a month since she last picked up a pheasant. Why not go up the mountain and pick up another pheasant today?
Feifei said this is totally possible!
The four girls all carried their backpacks and walked up the mountain together.
"Fei Fei, smart navigation system, quickly show me where there are pheasants!"
"Master, I've already prepared the route. At the fork in the road ahead, take the left fork and walk along that road for about ten minutes. There is a pheasant's nest over there with pheasants and a dozen pheasant eggs!"
"Wow! Feifei, you're awesome!"
Wen Nuan was chatting with Fei Fei in her mind while jumping around, looking very happy.
"He is still a child indeed!" Xie Sufang and Lin Yiman smiled at each other and thought to themselves.
"Xiao Nuan, why are you so happy today?" Liu Xiaoling asked curiously while looking at Wen Nuan jumping happily while carrying a backpack.
"Of course I'm happy. I don't have to go to work today, and I can go to the mountains to play with my sisters. Maybe I can even pick up another pheasant!" Wen Nuan secretly gave everyone a shot of prevention.
"Puchi, do you think that the pheasant is yours and you can pick it up just by saying so?"
"Just think about it, maybe it will come true."
"What a pity! It's broad daylight now..."
"Okay, Sister Xiaoling, are you saying that I am daydreaming?"
"I didn't say..."
Wen Nuan and Liu Xiaoling were playing and chasing each other in the front, while Xie Sufang and Lin Yiman were watching them with smiles from behind.
Even Feifei was flying happily above Wen Nuan's head. Everything was so beautiful!
Soon they arrived at the fork in the road that Feifei mentioned. Wen Nuan pointed to the left intersection and said, "Let's take this road today. My hunch tells me that if we take this road today, we will definitely have a big surprise!"
"Oh, your premonition is coming out!" Liu Xiaoling came closer to Wen Nuan again and teased her.
"Okay, let's listen to Xiao Nuan today and take this road!" Xie Sufang and Lin Yiman agreed with a smile. Their original plan today was to go out for a stroll and relax, so they let Wen Nuan make some noise.
"Master, Master is just ahead, just about 500 meters away!"
Under Feifei's intelligent navigation, Wen Nuan led the girls to the pheasant.
After walking for a while, Wen Nuan heard the sound of "cuckoo cuckoo".
"Shh!" Wen Nuan turned around and gestured to Xie Sufang and the others, asking them to keep quiet. She opened her mouth and whispered, "There's a pheasant..."
Hearing Wen Nuan's words, Xie Sufang and the others carefully came to Wen Nuan's side, and the group slowly moved towards the source of the sound.
"It's really wild..." Before Liu Xiaoling could finish her words, Lin Yiman covered her mouth.
"Xiaoling, don't make a sound!"
“Hmm…” Liu Xiaoling covered her mouth, widened her eyes and nodded.
"Master, use a good luck charm?"
"Use it!"
"Okay, Master, the good luck charm has taken effect!"
Wen Nuan stared closely at the big fat pheasant in front of her, and kept repeating in her mind, "Hit the tree, hit the tree, hit the tree, hit the tree..."
The pheasant looked around, then rushed towards a big tree. With a "bang", the pheasant knocked itself unconscious.
This scene seems a little familiar...
Xie Sufang and others stared at what was happening in front of them in amazement.
"It...hit a tree..." Liu Xiaoling pointed at the unconscious pheasant, so surprised that she was speechless.
"Well, a pheasant hit a tree..." Lin Yiman didn't react and looked at everything in front of her in a daze.
"Oh, great, we found another pheasant!" Wen Nuan shouted happily, "Hurry up, let's go and take a look, don't let the chicken wake up and run away again!"
Wen Nuan held Xie Sufang in her right hand and Lin Yiman in her left hand and ran towards the pheasant happily. Liu Xiaoling followed behind in a daze.
"Wow, this pheasant is so fat!" Xie Sufang exclaimed as she looked at the pheasant lying beside the tree.
"It's quite fat, probably about 5 or 6 kilograms!" Xie Sufang, Lin Yiman, and Liu Xiaoling surrounded the pheasant.
"Make way, make way..." Wen Nuan came over holding a big rock.
"Xiao Nuan, what are you doing?" Xie Sufang looked at Wen Nuan in confusion.
"Smash the pheasant to death. What if it wakes up and runs away again?" Wen Nuan said as a matter of course.
"I finally know why the last pheasant's head was rotten. It turned out that you hit it with a stone!"
"No wonder the last pheasant has no head!"
"Hehe, it's just that I don't know how to catch it, and I'm afraid it will run away..." Wen Nuan said with an embarrassed smile.
"Alright, Xiao Nuan, put the stone down quickly. It won't sink if you hold it," Lin Yiman patted Wen Nuan's shoulders helplessly, "Leave it to me and Sister Su Fang. This chicken head is also a piece of meat. I can't let you smash it again!"
"Hehe..." Wen Nuan laughed awkwardly and threw the stone aside.
Xie Sufang and Lin Yiman pulled some tall weeds and twisted them together to make two ropes. They tied one rope around the pheasant's legs and the other around the pheasant's mouth to prevent it from waking up and making any noise.
"Sister Sufang, Sister Yiman, look, there are pheasant eggs here!" Wen Nuan took advantage of the fact that Xie Sufang, Lin Yiman and Liu Xiaoling were all paying attention to the pheasants, and quickly went to the place where Feifei pointed out and found the pheasant eggs.
"Wow! So many pheasant eggs!" Liu Xiaoling was the first to run over. She jumped and danced with joy when she saw a dozen small pheasant eggs in the grass.
Xie Sufang and Lin Yiman tied up the pheasants and ran over, "So many!"
"Yes, yes, let's put it away quickly and go back to make fried eggs for lunch!"
Xie Sufang and Lin Yiman quickly pulled some wild grass and spread it under the backpack, then carefully placed the pheasant eggs into the basket one by one, and spread another layer of wild grass on top.
The pheasant was also wrapped in wild grass and put into Xie Sufang's backpack.
"I see there are a lot of wild vegetables around here. Let's dig some and put them on top to avoid being discovered by the villagers when we go back later."
"Um!"
"Um!"
"Um!"
Today is indeed a beautiful day!
