There was no need for her to worry so much about the wild animals in the mountains.
Once hundreds or thousands of villagers go up the mountain to build the reservoir, there will be no need to worry about wild animals.
First of all, wild animals usually live in deep mountains and will not run to the outskirts unless there are special circumstances.
Secondly, the villagers worked in groups on the mountain. Not to mention one or two wild beasts, even if a group came, they would only become the villagers' ghosts and there would be no possibility of escape.
Thinking of this, Mengyue no longer worried about the wild beasts in the mountains.
When digging a reservoir, just let the village heads tell everyone what to do. I believe that the villagers will not disobey for their own safety.
After working for most of the night, she didn't send the tiger cub back, and instead lost some spiritual spring water. Mengyue temporarily gave up the idea of sending the tiger cub back.
She decided to keep it for the time being and wait for an opportunity to let the tiger cub return to the mountains in the future.
After a night's rest, at daybreak, the diligent villagers left their beds and rushed out of their homes to work hard for their livelihood.
Mengyue was the only one still asleep in the family. The three brothers Mingyu, Minghao, and Mingxuan got on the ox cart and asked Mengyan to take them to the academy.
Grandma and the other working women also came home early and began to process the locusts, frying the locusts that Dazhu and Erzhu would sell that day and letting the two brothers take them.
During this period, the brothers Dazhu and Erzhu did not work with Mengyue, so naturally they did not go up the mountain to look for her.
However, the two brothers can still sell dozens of kilograms every day, but the quantity has decreased a lot compared to the beginning.
In fact, this is also normal. Fried locusts are not a rare thing. They are everywhere in the fields.
If you want to eat it, just go to the field and catch it, then go home and wash it, dry it, and fry it in a pan of oil. It is very simple and convenient.
Any farm woman who knows how to cook can make it easily.
Now, since the villagers in Qingshan Town learned that locusts are edible, they fry some in oil to give their children a snack when they grow up.
However, some families are really poor and have too little oil in their oil cans. They are reluctant to use the oil to fry locusts, so they will find ways to make it for their children.
For example, locusts can be used to make soup. They are boiled and dried. Although they are not as crispy as fried locusts, they taste good and many children like to eat them.
Every day when I go to the fields to catch locusts, I put some dried locusts in my pockets. When I'm hungry or tired, I'll eat a few and I can go back to catching locusts full of energy.
The fried locusts from the towns of Dazhu and Erzhu are delicious and come in a variety of flavors, making them an indispensable dish for many wealthy families.
Especially men who love to drink, whether they drink at home alone or with friends, they will always make a plate of fried locusts as a snack.
It was under such subtle influence that eating locusts gradually became a common thing for people.
And not only the people in Qingshan Town love to eat the crispy fried locusts, but other towns in Wuning County also know that locusts are edible.
The locusts in Wuning County are not only eaten by people every day, but also by tens of thousands of ducks.
The key is that ducks are very powerful. Each duck can eat at least dozens of locusts every day. If tens of thousands of ducks are added together, you can imagine how much they kill every day.
