"Erbao, come here and look, a pheasant. Catch it, we can eat chicken tonight." She lowered her voice and said to Erbao, who immediately went over and pounced on it very quickly. Seeing this, she also rushed over immediately, and the mother and son cooperated to catch the pheasant on the first try.

"I caught it! Great! Brother and mom are so great!" San Ya jumped and clapped her hands happily.

Daya hesitated and struggled when she saw this, but she finally reached out and untied the small knot on her head, "Mom, tie its wings and feet with ropes, so it won't fly away."

"Daya is so smart!"

Su Qianqian had dealt with animals and plants a lot in her previous life at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. She quickly tied up the pheasant and asked Erbao to carry it. She and her two daughters dragged the dry firewood down the mountain.

I can't help but drool when I think about having chicken for dinner.

After returning home, Su Qianqian first found the red rope to tie Daya's hair back, then quickly killed and plucked the chicken. She divided the chicken into two, planning to use one half to make chicken soup and the other half to stir-fry, two ways of eating.

The three little guys were very busy feeding the pigs and cleaning the chicken coop.

When Zhu Tianfang and sister-in-law Wu Yuexiang came back, the three little ones had just finished their work and sat down to rest. When they saw Daya and Sanya, they almost didn't recognize them and wondered where these two beautiful little girls came from.

"Grandma, aunt!" the two sisters called out sweetly.

"Wow, so pretty, so beautiful." Zhu Tianfang is not a person who favors boys over girls. She has always been good to Daya and Sanya. It's just that the family's conditions are limited and there are many things to do, so it is inevitable that she cannot take care of them.

"Mom did it." Daya said, "We caught a wild pheasant and Mom is doing it. Grandma, aunt, go and have a look."

Pheasant? ! !

Their eyes suddenly lit up and they hurried to the kitchen, where they saw the chicken had been cleaned.

"Mom, sister-in-law, you guys are back. We caught some wild pheasants. I plan to stew half of it and stir-fry the other half. I'll make dinner tonight."

Zhu Tianfang and Wu Yuexiang looked at each other and saw struggle in each other's eyes. They didn't want Su Qianqian to destroy the chicken, but the pheasant was caught by someone else, so they had no reason to stop her and could only let Su Qianqian do it.

Whether it is the aroma of stewed chicken soup or the aroma of stir-fried chicken, it is very impactful and the neighbors can all smell it. In today's poor times, it is normal not to see the smell of meat for a month or two. Who can stand such a delicious smell?

"Whose is this? It smells so good!"

"I thought it was yours, but no, this scent is like... Oomatsu's."

"Ah? Didn't Su Qianqian take all of Dasong's family away? How come they still have money to eat?"

Everyone sniffed hard, and it turned out to be the scent coming from Cheng Song's house.

It was Chuan Chuan's time to get out of school. He and his friends smelled something and ran home. They found that it was really their home. "It smells so good. Everyone was asking whose home it was. It turned out to be ours. What delicious food are they cooking?"

"Cousin, we caught a wild pheasant and my mother is frying the chicken!" Erbao said proudly.

"Wow!" Chuanchuan was already drooling; he hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

Cheng Youmin and Cheng Song also smelled it when they came back from work, and it was almost ready to eat when they got home.

"Drink some chicken soup to warm your stomach first, and then eat the fried chicken." Su Qianqian brought it over, the aroma was so fragrant that no one could resist it.

Cheng Youmin’s eyes widened, “Have our family become rich?” We can even eat chicken?

"The four of them are so lucky. They caught wild pheasants in the mountains. They ate this meal and have no next meal." Zhu Tianfang felt a little distressed. The whole chicken was eaten in one meal. Why didn't they leave some for it? What a spendthrift woman!

She didn't know what to say, so she just ate.

These days, no one is too embarrassed to ask for a piece of meat, so they can only gnaw on sweet potatoes to fill their stomachs, but the fragrance keeps drilling into their noses, which is so painful.

"It's so delicious! Auntie, how come you've suddenly become such a good cook?" Chuanchuan is a child at heart, and he couldn't help but ask.

"I didn't do it well before." She could only say this, otherwise it would be difficult to explain, "Chuanchuan, can auntie ask you a favor?"

Everyone's heart skipped a beat. Here she comes!

They put down their chopsticks consciously, not daring to eat anymore, and stared at Su Qianqian, waiting for her to say the next words.

"Can Chuanchuan teach me how to read after school? Is one cent a week okay?" Su Qianqian was really embarrassed to say one cent, but one cent could buy a lot of things now.

The Cheng family was shocked.

Su Qianqian is going to learn to read?

They looked at each other, and saw a line of words on each other's faces: I'm not afraid of a shrewd woman who is fierce, I'm just afraid of a educated woman!

The unruly Su Qianqian was so difficult to deal with, wouldn't she be even more difficult to deal with once she becomes educated?

Is it possible that I have been doing so much these days just to learn to read and write?

Chuan Chuan didn't dare to agree, he looked at Wu Yuexiang, Wu Yuexiang looked at Cheng Song, Cheng Song looked at Zhu Tianfang, Zhu Tianfang looked at Cheng Youmin, Cheng Youmin froze, he had no one to look at...

"Ahem..." He coughed twice, "Chuanchuan, just teach your aunt to read. Just teach her to read."

It's just recognizing words, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

After all, Chuanchuan is just an elementary school student and can't be taught too much, so there's no need to panic.

That night, Chuanchuan took the textbook and taught Su Qianqian how to recognize words.

The kerosene lamp was not very bright and could only illuminate a small area, which was actually quite harmful to the eyes. But there was nothing we could do but earn some money as soon as possible to install electric lights and improve our living standards.

"Aunt, this is a first-grade textbook. Let's start by recognizing simple words." Chuanchuan is already in the third grade, so there is no problem teaching first-grade content.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Su Qianqian agreed with a smile. Anyway, she was just looking for an excuse for the future. Otherwise, it would be hard for people to accept that an illiterate person suddenly became a cultured person. Then she would put all the credit on Chuanchuan.

The three little guys stood far away with longing in their eyes but they didn't dare to come forward.

"Come, learn along with me." She called the three little ones over and gave them an enlightenment, just like they were attending kindergarten at home.

"Da, the Da in Daya, Ya, the Ya in girl, Daya, this is your name." Chuanchuan wrote the two words Daya on the notebook. It turned out to be quite well written.

"Cousin, write to Erbao and see." Erbao said expectantly.

Chuanchuan wrote down Erbao and then Sanya, and felt very curious about the three children. It turned out that this was how his own name was written.

"Cousin, can you write mom's name?" Daya asked.

"Can."

Then the three words "Su Qianqian" were written on the paper. Although the handwriting was a little immature, the strokes and structure were all there, showing that the writer had practiced calligraphy seriously.

"Aunt, please write it down."

She could only pretend that it was her first time writing and wrote crookedly on purpose. Fortunately, Chuanchuan was a child and easy to fool. If she met a smarter one, she probably wouldn't be able to fool him.

After studying for about half an hour, Su Qianqian asked Chuanchuan to leave the get out of class. It was almost time and his eyes would not be able to bear it any longer.

There aren’t many entertainment activities at night these days. People basically just chat outside and go to bed early.

She thought that after waking up from a sleep, the spiritual spring would increase, but she found that it was still the same as before, and had not increased. This made her feel strange. What are the conditions for the spiritual spring to increase? Did it reach the top last time or did it need to trigger some opportunity?
