"Why is she screaming so miserably?"
Wei Qiang happily came back with a pheasant in his arms. When he heard the scream, he was so scared that he almost threw the chicken away and stretched his head to look in that direction.
Wei Ci felt guilty and looked at the sky, the earth, and the chickens, but she didn't answer his questions. She felt relieved when he taught her a lesson, but she still felt guilty when someone mentioned it afterwards. She really didn't have the talent to be cruel.
"What else can I do? I want to crawl out, brother! Hold it for me, hold it for me! This chicken has beautiful feathers! I want to use its tail feathers to make a shuttlecock!"
"Why are you hugging me? Aren't you afraid it will scratch you?"
Having said that, he still found a vine to tie its two claws together, grabbed the pheasant's wings and carefully stuffed it into Wei Yang's arms.
Wei Man: It’s another day when I envy others for having brothers.
After a lot of struggling, the five of them only caught three pheasants and two gray rabbits. Wei Ci was the luckiest among them. Two of the three pheasants jumped into her arms. They did pick up quite a few pheasant eggs, filling a whole basket. The pheasant eggs, which were not much bigger than quail eggs, were crowded together. It was such a great sense of accomplishment to look at them.
"Take it back and give it to Grandma, Second Grandma, and Grandma to eat."
Pheasant eggs are very nutritious. They are still young and don’t need supplements. It is the grandmothers in their seventies and eighties at home who need them the most.
"Goudan, can I exchange your share for yours?"
Wei Qingfeng rolled his eyes at him. He had told him many times not to call him Goudan, but this guy just refused to change.
"Just take it. Ah Ci and I are in good health and don't need this."
His grandparents passed away long ago, and his maternal family is tens of thousands of miles away, so there is no need for him.
Wei Qiang touched his short flat head and smiled innocently: "Then I'll trade you the eggs from our chickens and make brown sugar poached eggs for our sister Ah Ci."
"Brother, brown sugar eggs are for women to eat during confinement! Our sister Aci should eat fried eggs and egg custard..."
Wei Yang was slapped aside by his brother and shut up angrily, still muttering in his heart that his brother was a violent maniac and that he would use force if he couldn't win the argument.
Wei Qingfeng took the sack from Wei Ci's hand and wiped the sweat off her face.
"Aci, there's a red pine forest ahead. It should have been undiscovered yet. Do you want to go and pick some pine nuts?"
The pine nuts in the red pine forest are quite big. There are more than a dozen of them. There are quite a lot of them. Because their parents got into trouble and Wei Ci disappeared, their family didn't have time to prepare anything except cabbage, green onions, onions and potatoes for the winter.
Before Wei Ci could say anything, Wei Yang jumped up and said, "Go away! Our family didn't get many pine nuts this year. They were all sent to my grandmother's house by my money-losing mother."
Bang!
The back of the head was slapped hard.
"Sister, if our mother hears you saying this, watch out for your skin. It seems that all the shrimps and crabs you have been eating for so many years have been fed to the dog."
His grandmother's house is close to the seaside and there are few mountain products. Every year, half of the mountain products from his family are sent back to his grandmother's house.
"You're talking as if you haven't eaten. I'm a dog, and you're not a human either."
"What did you say? Louder!"
"I say, brother, you are right!"
Wei Yang smiled and gave Wei Qiang a thumbs up, then turned her head and curled her lips. Don't think she doesn't know that the things sent back to grandma's house may not be eaten by grandma, and all the food will go to the homes of her two vampire uncles.
Wei Ci thought of the fried pine nuts she had just eaten a few days ago, and her eyes lit up as she savored the taste.
"Brother, let's go pick pine nuts. We've almost picked up all the chestnuts."
While several people were packing up their things, Wei Ci secretly broke off a few chestnut branches and prepared to plant them in the space to let them grow. Then he would have more chestnuts than he could eat, and he could use them to make chestnut porridge, chestnut stewed chicken, chestnut cake, and sugar-fried chestnuts.
Slurp~
No, she had to find some time to take out the cookbook that was used as a table leg in the space and take a look at it again.
The few of them completely ignored Wei Qingmiao who was still screaming at the bottom of the pit, and excitedly ran towards the red pine forest with the cart.
This place is close to the mountains and is a small red pine forest. It is not large in area, but the trees are very thick and the tall trunks stand tall. The treetops are like huge green umbrellas that are fully opened, and the pine needles are lush and green.
"Wow! The pine cones here are so big!"
Wei Yang exclaimed.
“Maybe no one picked it.”
Wei Ci bent down excitedly to pick up the fallen pine cones, took one and broke it open to see if there were any pine nuts. She picked up seven or eight in a row. The pine nuts were heavy and very pleasing to the eye.
Several people started to divide the profits. Two big men climbed up the tree and hit it with bamboo sticks, while the girls bent down to pick up the fruits under the tree.
Boom!
“Ouch!”
Wei Ci covered her forehead with her hands, tears welling up in pain. She looked in the direction of what had hit her, and saw a red squirrel stealthily looking at her from between the branches. It was startled when it met her eyes, and quickly tied itself up again, but forgot to retract its tail. Wei Ci watched helplessly as its big fluffy tail swayed back and forth.
"Fool, your tail is still out there."
The red squirrel quietly poked its head out, and there was an easily understood look of confusion on its furry face.
Wei Ci pointed at her butt and saw that it didn't move. She shook it left and right to indicate that the other party's tail was still outside.
“Puff~”
Wei Man's laughter made Wei Ci, who was immersed in imitating a squirrel, blush. She felt a little embarrassed, afraid that others would think she was shy. She tried to maintain a calm aura and waved at the red squirrel. She lowered her head with a red face and continued to pick pine cones.
Unexpectedly, the red squirrel didn't seem to be afraid of her. It jumped down from the tree with two big pine cones in its arms, hopped in front of Wei Ci, and pushed the two pine cones in front of her.
Wei Ci was dumbfounded. What does this mean?
“Chichichi!”
"I don't understand, speak human language."
