Chapter 122: Sweeping Autumn (2/2)



"Shuning, thank you for being so kind to us two old people."

Mother Lu was so moved that her eyes turned red. She had three daughters-in-law. The eldest daughter-in-law was a workaholic and usually only gave her mother-in-law some money when she came home. Don't even mention the second daughter-in-law. These girls didn't know how much they had to endure for her.

Only the third daughter-in-law cares about the old couple, buying them clothes and food, and now giving them such a big ginseng.

"Mom, open that sack, there's a little wild boar inside."

Liu Shuning couldn't stand seeing other people cry, so she quickly used the wild boar to distract Lu's mother.

"How can you be so brave as to provoke a group of wild boars? Come here and let me check if you are injured." Mother Lu checked Liu Shuning's whole body and was relieved to see that she was not injured.

"Mom, I'm fine. The wild boars would turn around and run away when they see me."

Liu Shuning is now really the nemesis of wild boars. Whenever wild boars encounter her, few of them can escape, and most of them end up being eaten by the tiger family of three in her space.

"So what are you going to do with this wild boar? Are you going to make bacon out of it? Now that the weather is cooler, it's a good time to make bacon out of it."

"That's fine. I'll go boil some water and kill the pig. I'll leave four pig's trotters for Sister Xiao Feng across the street, and the rest can be preserved for winter."

It’s going to snow next month, so we should stock up on more meat and dried vegetables now.

Otherwise, in winter you can only eat cabbage and radishes every day, which will get boring.

This is also the thing that Liu Shuning cannot adapt to the most. It is really uncomfortable to have no vegetables to eat in winter.

"Now is the season for sweeping the autumn leaves. Your Aunt Yang asked me to go up the mountain to sweep the autumn leaves tomorrow. Do you want to go with us?" Aunt Yang originally wanted to ask Liu Shuning out, but recently she has been leaving early and coming back late, so Aunt Yang can't see her at all.

The Second and Third Armies had their autumn harvest holidays recently, which was a good opportunity for the two of them to stay at home and look after the twins.

"Okay, I've been pretty busy lately, so I have time to go pick chestnuts. I know a place with a lot of chestnut trees, I'll take you there to pick chestnuts tomorrow."

Liu Shuning planted a chestnut tree in her space, but she couldn't eat all the chestnuts she harvested.

She agreed to accompany Mother Lu and Aunt Yang to the mountain to sweep the autumn grass, just to join in the fun.

Early the next morning, Liu Shuning marinated the wild boar meat with various seasonings, and hung it up to dry when she came back at noon.

After breakfast, Liu Shuning carried a backpack and a sack and went up the mountain with Lu's mother and Aunt Yang.

The chestnut forest that Liu Shuning mentioned is not far from where the trap was dug last time. There is a pine forest across the way and deep mountains, so usually no one dares to come here.

"Shuning, how did you know there was a chestnut forest here?"

Aunt Yang had lived in the army for so many years that she knew there was a chestnut forest near the mountains, but everyone was afraid of wild boars, so the military families did not dare to come here to pick chestnuts.

"I passed by here last time and saw so many chestnuts and I remembered them."

There used to be a small herd of wild boars here. Some time ago, Liu Shuning was worried that the wild boars would go down the mountain, so he put the herd into the space.
