Chapter 294: Abundant Resources - The Sickly Young Girl Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard
Mother Lin looked at the bulging bag and asked, "So much?"
"Yeah, hehe! Didn't expect it? I didn't expect there would be so many rabbits!" Aunt Li said with a big grin.
"Yeah, the resources in this mountain are so rich!" Mother Lin looked at the big bag of rabbits, then looked at the lush green scenery of the mountain, and exclaimed.
Aunt Sui was also very happy. This big bag was full of meat! The people in the city had to rely on the supply for everything they ate and drank. If there was no supply, they wouldn't even have anything to eat. The pork in the city was not always supplied, and even if there was supply, it was not necessarily possible to grab it. With so many rabbits, if the three families shared a portion, they would be able to eat for a long time.
"What should we do now?" Mother Lin looked at the rabbit in the bag that was still jumping vigorously.
"Let's find some vines to tie up the rabbit!" Aunt Li also felt that it was not right to keep doing this.
"Okay! Then you hold on to it and we'll go look for it. You must hold on to it!" Aunt Sui responded quickly, and kept reminding him before leaving, fearing that the rabbit would run away accidentally.
"Yes, we must hold it tight!" Mother Lin was a little scared when she saw the rabbit jumping around so vigorously, fearing that it would escape if she was not careful.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely hold on tight." To show that she could do it, she twisted the bag again and held it tightly.
Only then did Mother Lin and Aunt Sui feel relieved and ran downstairs to find rattan.
They remembered that when they came up from the mountain just now, they saw the headline in the bushes by the roadside, so they ran back quickly.
After a while they came back carrying a pile of rattan.
"Huff~Huff~" The two of them ran very fast and were panting for breath after coming back.
"Hey, why are you in such a hurry? I can hold on steady. I can run slower."
Mother Lin bent down and waved her hands, still a little speechless. She swallowed her saliva and moistened her throat before saying, "One minute later means one minute more uncertainty. We have to get it done quickly."
"Yeah." Aunt Sui beside her also nodded quickly, obviously she had the same idea.
Aunt Li had no idea what to do with them, but now they were back, "Then you two should take a break, and we will tie up the rabbit together later."
"Um."
After a long while, when Mother Lin and Aunt Sui had rested, they started to tie the rabbit with Aunt Li.
Aunt Li still held the bag tightly, holding the bag mouth high to prevent the rabbit from running away. Mother Lin and Aunt Sui tied up the rabbit together.
This is because they are afraid that the rabbit will jump too fast for one person to catch it.
Their worries were not unfounded. The first time, due to lack of experience, Lin's mother just grabbed a rabbit leg, but before she could grab the next one, it kicked away with great force.
They thought it might not be possible for one person to catch a rabbit, so they decided to have two people catch one rabbit. After catching the rabbit, one person would hold it down while the other tied it up with a vine.
In this way, the three of them worked together and finally tied up all the rabbits.
"Huh~" Although they were all sweaty and exhausted, they were still in very good spirits.
The three of them couldn't help laughing as they looked at the rabbits all over the ground.
They had eleven rabbits tied up. How could they not be happy? They were all meat!
"How do we divide this?" asked Aunt Sui.
Mother Lin took a look and said, "Then you can each have four and I can have three. I can choose the fatter ones so that it will be fair."
Aunt Li and Aunt Sui thought about it and decided that this was a good way to divide the property. "Okay, we'll follow your instructions."
When they came, each of them brought a backpack, which he tied to his bicycle.
Aunt Li looked at the sky and thought it was still early. "Why don't we go to the mountain over there and see if there are any wild vegetables?"
They didn't know what wild vegetables there were in the autumn, so they decided to try their luck. Anyway, today's harvest was enough, and even if there was no harvest in the future, they would be very satisfied.
Well, this mountain is really desolate, and there are wild vegetables everywhere. Although some of them are old, there are still some tender ones, such as bracken, amaranth and the like.
Lin's mother and her group were also very satisfied with these.
For lunch, they ate the bread they brought with them. Yes, they had no plans to go back home at noon. It was not easy to come out this time.
Besides, they had gained a lot, so it would be impossible for them to go back by bike like they did when they came here.
So, they planned that one of them would ride a bike with the bag of rabbits, and the other two would take the bus back with the wild vegetables.
The main reason was that they were afraid that bringing the rabbit on the bus would be discovered by others, so they decided to act separately.
"Are you sure you can do it alone?" Mother Lin said to Aunt Li.
"Auntie Lin, don't worry, don't worry, I'm very strong!" She was elected to the School of Management because of this strength!
Aunt Sui felt much more relieved, as she knew very well the strength of her elder sisters.
"Auntie Lin, don't worry. She lacks everything except strength."
"Okay, then be careful on the road." Seeing them like this, Lin's mother didn't say anything more.
"Okay!" Aunt Li separated from them first and rode away on her bicycle.
The main reason is that this time the driving might be slower than the bus. They came here on time to take the bus. If the bicycles left first and rode fast, they should have arrived almost the same place.
Things turned out pretty much as they expected. It was indeed faster for Mother Lin and Aunt Sui to take the bus than to ride a bicycle. Even though Aunt Li started out first, they still arrived first in the end.
Lin's mother and Sui's mother were waiting at the intersection. They had indeed been questioned in the car just now, but they were sent away by the two of them.
"Here!" Lin's mother called out to Aunt Li who was riding her bike towards them.
"Huh~ We're finally here." Aunt Li was very excited riding her bicycle all the way.
"Are we going back like this?" Aunt Sui said worriedly as she looked at the harvest.
Aunt Li took a look and it seemed that something was indeed not going well.
She looked again, fortunately there were not many people on the road at this time, and waved to Lin's mother and Sui's mother, "Let's go to that alley first." She remembered that it was a dead end.
The three of them carefully paid attention to their surroundings and quickly moved to the dead end over there.
"Hurry, hurry, pour out the wild vegetables." Aunt Li said to Mother Lin and Aunt Sui.
Mother Lin and Aunt Sui also followed the instructions and quickly poured out the wild vegetables in the backpack.
"Open the sacks you brought with you and put your rabbits in them. Put a layer of wild vegetables under the basket first, then put the sacks in and then put more wild vegetables on top."
Mother Lin and Aunt Sui did as Aunt Li said, and soon they had packed all their things. Then, in front of them were baskets of wild vegetables, and this is what it looked like from the outside.
"Okay, now we can go." Aunt Li carried her backpack on her back.
Seeing this, Aunt Sui also carried the child on her back.
Mother Lin also tried to do the same, but was quickly stopped by Aunt Li, "Aunt Lin, don't carry it, don't carry it, it's too heavy, just put it on the bicycle and push it!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Aunt Sui quickly echoed.
Mother Lin felt like she was so happy that she almost forgot about it.
"good!"
