Chi Yu, who was almost dozing off during the meal, suddenly became energetic as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
Seeing Chi Kang walking towards him, he said directly, "Kang, there's some noise outside!"
Chi Kang, who originally just wanted to finish his meal quickly and go to sleep, opened his slightly drowsy eyes and looked at the other person in confusion upon hearing this.
After Chi Yu nodded vigorously, his mind slowed down a beat before finally processing what had happened.
"Is there some noise outside? Is it wild animals?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes widened, and he perked up.
If they can bring back any wild animals, then his mother won't have to worry about food at home.
My elder brother's marriage will be handled properly and respectably!
Thinking of this, he became alert: "Auntie, shall we go out now?"
"No, we don't know what's going on outside yet, so we can't go out rashly."
I heard the squeaking of a startled wild boar. Those things are incredibly fierce; they're not even afraid of bears.
I don't know what it is that makes this sound.
Let's wait until the noise outside subsides, then we'll light a torch and go out to take a look.
Chi Kang knew that the mountains at night were much more dangerous than during the day.
So there was no rush, and instead, I chose to sit down and eat.
After quickly finishing his meal, he ran out to find his uncle.
Chi Dahu was a man who couldn't sit still. As soon as he finished laying out the potato blocks, he started thinking about whether he should light a torch in the field before going to bed and plant them all first.
This thing called a potato is truly a high-yield product.
They hadn't planted a single plot of land before, but at harvest time, they had two or three hundred catties, which was more than the yield of one mu of rice!
God knows how excited he and A-Kang were when the product came out.
If this thing could be planted on an acre of land, wouldn't that be amazing? Wouldn't it weigh two or three thousand catties?
Xiaoyu said that this thing can be considered both a vegetable and a grain.
So he wanted to plant it as soon as possible so that he could harvest it sooner.
Sure enough, when Chi Kang came over, he was carrying a hoe on the shoulder that was holding the pine resin torch.
In his other hand, he was carrying a half-basket of freshly processed potatoes.
Upon seeing this, Chi Kang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Uncle, Aunt said there's some noise outside, the squeaking of a wild boar that's been startled."
Chi Dahu, who had planned to plant the potatoes and then get a good night's sleep, and then search carefully the next day to see where there might be wild animals, immediately threw his hoe and potatoes on the ground after hearing this.
"Walk!"
Chi Kang stopped him: "Uncle, Aunt said to wait. How about this, I'll plant potatoes with you first."
When it's really time to go out, my aunt will definitely see us off directly.
Chi Dahu thought about it and agreed, so he nodded and got to work with Chi Kang.
The uncle and nephew were perhaps too preoccupied with the wild boars outside, so much so that they seemed somewhat distracted when planting potatoes.
After eating and drinking her fill, Chi Yu washed the dishes and chopsticks, quickly washed up, and went back to bed.
Perhaps it was because of the change of battlefield, but the sounds outside seemed to fade into the distance, and she slowly drifted off to sleep.
When she woke up again, it was already broad daylight outside.
Chi Dahu and Chi Kang, the uncle and nephew who had spent the whole night planting potatoes and waiting, appeared in the living room with dark circles under their eyes.
When Chi Yu saw them like this, she was startled, but then she realized why they were doing this.
She hurried into the kitchen and brought each of them a bowl of sorghum rice.
He then heated up the soy milk he had gotten from his third sister-in-law and handed it over.
