At the foot of the mountain, Li Mingqing stopped to tell the children: "Don't run around on the mountain. You must listen to my instructions, okay?"
"Uncle, we will follow you and not go anywhere."
Several children nodded very seriously, afraid that he didn't believe them.
Li Ming wondered if he would be lucky enough to encounter a pheasant or a hare.
Li Xiangdong happily followed behind and chattered non-stop, just wanting to catch sparrows, just like a child.
He took out the rubber band and elastic bag from the space, and turned around before finding a suitable branch.
Use a blade to smooth the surface of the branch, cut a shallow notch at the top of the branch, and insert the rubber band and spring pocket into it.
A simple slingshot is ready.
"Uncle, this is a slingshot!"
"It's a slingshot. I saw Li Xiangnong and Li Xianggong playing with it last time, but they didn't catch a single sparrow."
Li Xiangdong and Li Xiangxi looked at the slingshot excitedly. They had wanted it for a long time but never had the chance.
"Look at my uncle. He can not only shoot down sparrows, but also pheasants and rabbits."
"Wow, little uncle is so awesome."
Several children looked at him with great admiration.
"But let's collect some firewood first. Once we have enough, we can go play slingshot."
He was full of energy and collected a full load of firewood in just half an hour.
The children made great contributions. Although they are young, they are good at collecting firewood.
Sun Jiaxue looked at Li Mingqing playing well with the children and thought that Brother Mingqing must like children very much.
She wasn't sure either.
She felt that she was in good health and there would be no problem giving birth to a child. Moreover, he had medical skills, so how could there be an accident? All women have to give birth to children.
Li Mingqing picked up a small stone and threw it at a flying sparrow.
It fell immediately.
Li Xiangdong immediately ran over and picked up the sparrow with its injured wings.
"Uncle, it's time to eat meat."
Suddenly the grass shook and Li Mingqing quickly threw a stone at the grass.
He walked over and found it was a fat hare.
"My uncle will treat you to a big meal."
This is really a pleasant surprise, like picking it up for free.
At the small river at the foot of the mountain, he skillfully cleaned the wild rabbits and kept the rabbit skins intact so that he could make gloves in winter.
Sun Jiaxue watched with wide eyes, thinking that the butcher might not be as skilled as him.
He is not good at cooking, but he is good at this.
After the hare was processed, it was placed on firewood and covered with a layer of branches.
The group walked happily towards the village.
"Brother Mingqing, let me help you carry it. We still have a long way to go."
"I can still carry this little bit of firewood."
The firewood looked like a lot but it wasn't heavy at all and was just dry branches.
It was just time to get off work, and I was surprised to see him carrying firewood. It was the first time I saw him working since he recovered.
Old Mrs. Li didn't expect that their family would go into the mountains.
"Your youngest son really loves his wife. Look at your daughter-in-law, she has nothing in her hands. It was Ming and Qing who suffered the most."
Zhang Cuihua suddenly spoke out of place.
Old Lady Li looked at the scratches on her face and said, "Your scars haven't healed yet, are you planning to add new ones?"
"Humph, that bitch Dazhu Niang, I will definitely not let her off next time."
After she said that, she left angrily and stopped talking nonsense.
Instead, Wang Daya came up to Li Mingqing and said, "You work so hard and yet you still have to come back to work. I really feel sorry for you."
"ill."
Li Mingqing walked past her and felt unlucky.
Xiao Baihua's acting skills make her look like Zhong Kui, which is really hard to watch.
Wang Daya glanced at Sun Jiaxue, who was following behind Li Mingqing, and cursed softly, "What a vixen."
"Even if you curse the heavens, it won't help. You and Wang Dazhu look more suitable for each other," Li Xiangxia said gloatingly.
"Xiang Xia, what did you say? I didn't offend you."
"Of course I'm telling the truth. I think even people in the neighboring villages know about your mother and Dazhu's mother."
She felt that Wang Daya's dream of marrying into the Li family was simply a pipe dream.
Li Mingqing doesn't even take her seriously, let alone Wang Daya. It's better to be realistic.
After hearing this, Wang Dazhu quickly clarified: "Xiang Xia, please don't misunderstand me. I will not marry Wang Daya."
Li Xiangxia chuckled and looked at Wang Daya meaningfully.
"Dazhu, how can you say that? Daya must be sad."
"It has nothing to do with me."
While he was speaking, he kept staring at Li Xiangxia and didn't look at Wang Daya.
Wang Daya stomped her feet angrily and ran away.
Li Dahua was also very angry, but she was angry at Li Xiangxia, who didn't know how to avoid suspicion at all.
He raised his hand and twisted Li Xiangxia's ear as he walked home, showing no mercy despite her wailing.
After arriving at Li's house, Li Mingqing took out the hare and gave it to Sun Jiaxue.
"Wife, I leave it to you."
"Don't worry, Brother Mingqing, I will definitely not waste this rabbit meat."
Sun Jiaxue doesn’t dare to say anything else, but she is still very confident about cooking.
She put the hare in a pot and simmered it on the stove, adding half a turnip.
Li Mingqing looked at her torn sleeves and said, "Wife, why don't you wear new clothes? The cuffs are all worn out."
"It's okay, it's just the sleeve that's torn, I can still wear it after mending it."
"I wear new clothes all the time. If others see me, they'll think I'm mistreating you. I'm sure a lot of people will scold me then."
"How could that be? Brother Mingqing, please don't think like that."
