An Changyue stopped talking because she had just forgotten about this matter.
An Hongdou spoke to them for a few more words before continuing to move forward.
Most of the visible traces are left after the grass has been cut.
But this did not pose a problem for her. Even when she reached a place with pig grass, she did not stop but continued to go deeper.
The grass on the outside has been almost cut, so let's leave it for the children. Children are not very strong and they may get into danger if they go too deep.
She is different.
Once you enter the mountains, it’s like a fish in water.
She even hoped to encounter some danger so that she could have more food in her space.
Quickly complete your tasks for today. If something doesn’t fit in the frame, tie it up and put it into the space. You can just take it out when you return.
Mowing the lawn is quite labor-saving for An Hongdou. In a short while, she completed her task for the day.
As for the rest, it is her own time.
She was not in a hurry to go back, but just wandered around in the mountains.
There is still a lot of mutton at home, and wild boar meat has a strong smell. Even though my third sister-in-law is a good cook, the wild boar meat she cooks is still not as delicious as domestic pork.
On the contrary, the taste of pheasant and rabbit meat is really good.
Last time, I wanted to stew chicken soup for Shen Xiangzhi to nourish his body, but as soon as the stewed chicken soup was served on the table, it was snatched away by several children. The adults didn't even get to eat a few pieces, let alone send it to him.
Moreover, An Hongdou believed that her relationship with Shen Xiangzhi was not to the point where she would snatch food from a child's mouth and give it to him.
Thinking of this, An Hongdou bent down, picked up a stone, and threw it directly out of her hand. There was a gurgling sound and the sound of flapping wings in the grass not far away, and then there was no movement.
An Hongdou walked over and picked up the pheasant whose head she had smashed. In order to prevent it from bleeding after a long time, she simply cut the pheasant's neck and hung it by its legs.
Tick-tock.
The pheasant's blood dripped onto the heavy foliage below.
An Hongdou laughed.
He bent down, picked up several more eggs from the bushes, and threw them into the space.
In a short while, she poked the nests of five pheasants and successfully captured five pheasants that were hatching eggs. She harvested more than thirty pheasant eggs alone, as well as more than ten baby pheasants that were only a few days old.
Living things could not be stored in the space, so she could only weave a basket with vines, put the little pheasant in the basket, and prepare to take it home to raise.
After finishing all this, An Hongdou jumped directly onto the tree, found a comfortable branch and lay down.
In the space, all five pheasants were scalded with boiling water and plucked. The stew pot and oven in the space were all ready. After the marinade package was evenly applied on the processed pheasants and marinated for a while, the oven started to work.
The stew pot was also filled with chopped pheasant, which was bubbling under the electric stew.
After setting the time, An Hongdou leaned against the tree and closed her eyes to take a nap.
By the time the chicken soup and roast chicken are ready, the sun is at its hottest.
When she opened her eyes, she was blindly stung by the sunlight shining through the dense branches and leaves. An Hongdou quickly covered her eyes with her hands, and only let go after her eyes adjusted.
He took out bowls and chopsticks from the space, filled a bowl of chicken soup, and drank it in a short while.
Although she was still far from being full, she had lost the desire to continue eating.
An Hongdou is a real foodie, but unfortunately she has no good skills and no talent for cooking.
Obviously the steps and ingredients are the same, but the food she makes is not inedible, just average at best.
You can fill your stomach when you are hungry, but you have no desire at all to simply enjoy the food.
An Hongdou didn't think of taking the prey home this time. Her sisters-in-law all disliked her anyway, and she was too lazy to bother to curry their favor.
After resting enough, I jumped down from the tree and started my return journey.
When she reached the edge of the mountain, she took out the basket of pig feed and the things tied up with ropes that had been stored in the space, and went down the mountain carrying one in each hand.
The man who guards the cowshed and feeds the pigs is a lame middle-aged man. According to seniority, An Hongdou should call him Uncle Cui.
Usually, when children come to deliver pig feed, he also records each person delivering how much.
From a distance, I saw An Hongdou coming with a large bundle of pig grass. There was so much grass that it almost covered her.
Cui Dashan hurried over to help.
He didn't know who this was at first, but after putting the pig feed down, he saw clearly that the person was An Hongdou.
"Hongdou girl, why did you go to the mountains to collect grass for pigs?" Cui Dashan asked in surprise.
An Hongdou reached out to pick off the remaining grass leaves on her body and answered, "My second uncle asked me to do some light work for a few days to practice my hands. After a few days, I will go to the fields to help out."
"You've really grown up." Cui Dashan knew as soon as he heard it that An Hongdou would have to go to work with everyone in the future.
However, looking at the large piece of pig grass on the ground, he couldn't help but sigh that the An family had really born the wrong daughter.
If this were a boy with such strength, there would be no need to worry about the prosperity of the family.
Unfortunately, it’s useless for a girl to be so strong, because she will eventually belong to someone else’s family.
Normally, two baskets of pig grass could be counted as one centimeter, but An Hongdou's piece was really a lot, and Cui Dashan was too lazy to use a box to measure it for her, so he just made a rough estimate and counted it as six centimeters.
This score is already a lot. An adult man working in the fields for a whole day can only memorize ten centimeters. Those who can memorize eleven or twelve centimeters are considered very capable people.
After watching Cui Dashan record his points, An Hongdou said something to him and wanted to leave.
Looking at An Hongdou's back, Cui Dashan showed a thoughtful expression. After thinking for a while, he called her and said, "Hongdou girl, don't leave yet. Uncle Cui wants to discuss something with you. Is it okay?"
"Uncle Cui, what's the matter?" An Hongdou turned around and asked.
In order to make it easier to talk, Cui Dashan took two steps forward and said, "Is this so? Didn't you just say that you would go to the fields with me in a few days?"
An Hongdou nodded, "Yes."
Cui Dashan looked a little embarrassed. "It's like this. You may not know this because you have never worked in the fields. Working in the fields is very hard, especially in the summer. You sweat like you are washing your face. And your hands are used to holding farm tools, so they feel uncomfortable when they touch their faces. Oh, girls should pay special attention to their faces. If they are exposed to the sun for a long time, they will become darker and have black spots..."
