Chapter 119 Little Muntjac

Putting aside the question of whether the mountains are dangerous or not, if too many people go into the mountains together, even if they find something good, they won't get much if they share it among the group.

It’s better to pick the wild kiwis first.

Jiang Cuihua nodded and said, "That's fine too."

Anyway, there is a lot of food stocked up at home, so she feels confident.

A few people still took the old route to the mountain. When they got there, they found that wild kiwis had not been discovered yet.

Jiang Cuihua and Liu Mingyuan couldn't wait to start picking kiwis.

Liu Mingyuan had a few scratches on his face, but it did not affect his work.

Liu Yinyin also picked kiwis for a while and saw that there were still many kiwis on the tree.

Liu Yinyin greeted them and went to take a look at the field where wild yams were being dug.

She was still thinking about the trap she had made. Yesterday, Liu Mingyuan and the others didn't find anything in the trap.

Liu Yinyin didn't have any expectations in her heart, but since she was already here, she might as well come and take a look.

There are more pits here than before, and there are pits and holes everywhere. If there really is prey passing by.

There is a high probability that you cannot escape.

Liu Yinyin carefully checked the trap she had laid earlier...

As expected, there was nothing here. It seemed that catching prey was not an easy task.

Liu Yinyin also checked each of the new pits they dug yesterday.

“Eh…”

Suddenly, Liu Yinyin was a little scared. She saw that there was actually prey in the trap. It was a little muntjac, and it was still alive.

Maybe the little deer accidentally fell into the pit and broke its leg. It heard the noise and stared at her warily...

Caught off guard, Liu Yinyin met the little muntjac's deep and sharp eyes and was frightened.

This little muntjac is not very big, weighing only about 20 to 30 kilograms at most.

Liu Yinyin's heart fell again. You're just a little thing, how can I be afraid of you?

However, she was not interested in the little deer meat, so she called Jiang Cuihua and her son to deal with it.

"Oh my god." Jiang Cuihua was surprised and delighted when she saw the little muntjac in the trap. "I can actually catch prey."

Liu Mingyuan said: "Little sister, you are lucky. Next time you go up the mountain, ask me to come with you!"

Yesterday, he checked all the traps and found not a single bird feather.

He is not superstitious, but Liu Yinyin is really lucky and always gets something when she goes to the mountain.

Liu Yinyin: “…”

The way she said this made it seem as if she was really possessed by the koi.

Several people brought axes to the mountain, and Jiang Cuihua and her son killed the little muntjac in just a few strokes.

Liu Mingyuan poured out the kiwis from the basket, put the little muntjac under the basket, and then piled the kiwis on top.

At first glance, you couldn't tell there was a muntjac hiding under the basket.

"We must not let others see it, otherwise they will get conjunctivitis again." Jiang Cuihua muttered dissatisfiedly.

She was still thinking about the wild yams being stolen.

Now the baskets of several people were full. Liu Mingyuan not only carried a backpack, but also held half a bag of wild kiwifruit in his hands.

The kiwis on the trees have been almost picked.

There was no more stuff to pack the kiwis in, so a few people went home.

This time when I went down the mountain, I met more people on the way.

Just like the previous two days, I would ask every person I met if they had found anything good in the mountains again.

Jiang Cuihua didn't hide anything this time and said directly: "I found a wild fruit tree and picked a lot of wild kiwis."

Compared to wild yams, kiwis are not that eye-catching.

A woman who came to the mountain to pick wild vegetables was still jealous and said, "Your family is so lucky. Next time something like this happens, don't forget everyone. After you eat the meat, you have to let everyone share a piece."

The Liu family already lived a better life than the villagers thanks to their promising daughters and sons-in-law. Now they found so much food in the mountains. How could they not be jealous?

Jiang Cuihua smiled guiltily: "...Of course, of course, you too, share good things with us."

That’s what they say, but people are selfish. If there are really good things, who would be willing to share them with others?

There is not enough for our family.

However, after the others left, Jiang Cuihua felt a little uneasy: "Both our families have to keep a low profile from now on."

If someone in the village ran out of food, they might really target these two families.

Liu Mingyuan gritted his teeth and whispered, "If someone really has bad intentions, they are too heartless."

My younger sister and her husband have been a great help to the villagers. Not only have they provided wild vegetables to everyone, they have also found ways to exchange food for the rabbits raised in the village.

After such a great favor, if they still dare to worry about my little sister's family, wouldn't that be ungrateful?

Jiang Cuihua curled her lips and said, "If I were really hungry, I wouldn't care about that. But... the situation in the village hasn't reached that point yet. We just need to be a little more careful in our daily lives."

It is indeed because of the help of the young couple that the situation in Liujia Village is not too serious now.

Unlike other villages, some places have really run out of food and have to rely on wild vegetables and tree bark from the mountains to fill their stomachs.

Liu Mingyuan thought that since his brother-in-law was not at home, his family would definitely take good care of his younger sister and nephew. He suggested, "Why don't you go back to the county town to live?"

The security in the county town is good, unlike in the countryside where thefts often happen.

Liu Yinyin blushed and said, "...It's not that serious. Besides, mom is at home with me."

It’s not like there’s no food in the canteen, so no one will starve to death. At the very least, the villagers won’t go and steal food.

Moreover, is it safe to live in a county town?

Jiang Cuihua thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to your uncle's house and get a dog. It'll be safer this way."

Dogs are good helpers for guarding the house. Moreover, dogs have sharp ears and can hear anything happening at night.

"That's great." To be honest, Liu Yinyin also wanted to have a dog. It was not good to have too few people at home.

However, Liu Yinyin added: "You have to choose a dog that is a little more docile."

There is no way, there are children at home.

Jiang Cuihua nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

There were twenty or thirty kilograms of young deer meat, but Liu Yinyin didn't want even a single kilogram.

Jiang Cuihua said that she was hypocritical and would not eat meat even if there was one. Since the lady did not want deer meat, she gave Liu Yinyin two baskets of wild kiwis.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t finish eating the kiwi fruit, you can dry it and store it.

There are several grandchildren in the family, so one basket is enough. We also dry some other dried fruits at home.

So, for the next two days, Liu Yinyin was busy drying the dried kiwi fruits.

Other people in the village are also busy, and every day some people go to the mountains to pick wild vegetables and fruits.

I heard the harvest was pretty good.

Liu Yinyin was also happy to hear this. She was also relieved that the villagers were living a better life.
