Su Nian, carrying mushrooms and a pheasant, happily went down the mountain to look for Sun Yanyan and Qin Yuxian.
The two of them were wandering around, rummaging through the grass, trying to find some mushrooms, or even a pheasant.
Hard work pays off. After seeing a few clusters of mushrooms, the two of them remembered that they didn’t recognize them and had never seen them before. They didn’t know if they could be eaten or whether they should pick them!
They simply picked them all, and collected half a basketful of them. In the end, they found a nest of pheasant eggs. They counted them and there were eight of them. They were very happy.
When he saw Su Nian coming down, he jumped up excitedly.
"Wow! Wow, what did you see? Is it a pheasant? Is it meat? Sister Yan Zi, please pinch me! Am I dreaming?" Qin Yuxian opened her mouth exaggeratedly and couldn't close it.
"Pheasant! Meat! That's right! Absolutely right!" Sun Yanyan nodded rapidly, and while speaking, she twisted Qin Yuxian's arm hard.
"Ah! It hurts so much! I'm not dreaming! It's real! It's really a pheasant, it's meat!" Qin Yuxian screamed and continued to speak with drool.
"Sister Nian! Sister Nian! You are really my sister! Do you know how long it has been since I last had meat? I'm dying of greed!" Qin Yuxian jumped over and said while looking at the pheasant and slurping her saliva exaggeratedly.
"What did you eat on the train? Broken glass?" Su Nian couldn't help but ask.
"That doesn't count! It's not the meal I cooked!" Qin Yuxian said, staring at the pheasant with her big black eyes.
Su Nian felt that her eyes were turning green again. It was too fierce. It looked like she wanted to swallow the pheasant and even its feathers.
Su Nian was too lazy to pay attention to the extremely exaggerated expressions of these two idiots. She didn’t know whether they were intentional or really wanted to eat meat. Anyway, it was very exaggerated!
"Niannian! Come and take a look! Are the mushrooms we found edible?" Sun Yanyan seemed to have thought of something and pulled her and Qin Yuxian's backpacks over.
These two are quite sensible and know to separate the mushrooms. There are two kinds of mushrooms in total, one flower and one gray, the flower mushroom and the gray amanita.
"These mushrooms are edible. Crush the mushrooms in that basket and bury them! They're poisonous mushrooms. If someone picks them up and eats them, it'll be the end of them!"
"Okay!" The two of them took action quickly.
One person found a wooden stick, and the other dug a hole. They used the stick to crush the gray amanita phalloides and buried them all, leaving the flower mushrooms to eat.
After they finished their work, they carried the baskets down the mountain with the pheasants tied tightly together and covered them with firewood.
When Su Nian returned to the Youth League compound, she saw a plaid coarse cloth quilt cover and a white coarse cloth quilt cover drying in the yard, as well as a cotton quilt cover that was white with a black tint.
It seems that Su Yiyi is taking apart and washing the quilt.
Now, there is no one in the yard. Su Yiyi and the others may have gone to prepare daily necessities.
As for the three people in the next room, they were either sleeping or out. There was no sound at all.
Qin Yuxian even peeked into their room in a mischievous manner.
"No one is here!" Qin Yuxian made a "yeah" gesture and said with a smile.
While there was no one in the yard, Qin Yuxian immediately boiled water, Sun Yanyan washed mushrooms, and Su Nian killed and plucked the chicken without stopping.
The chicken stewed with mushrooms was quickly put into the pot.
It was stewed for two hours and the whole yard was filled with fragrance.
Su Nian and the others put the food directly into a basin to dry and cleaned the pot.
In the evening, the old educated youth got off work, and Shulan and the other three also returned.
At this time, the smell in the yard had long disappeared!
It turned out that the three of them went to the next village to see a barefoot doctor to get cold medicine.
The three of them walked slowly because of the pain in their legs.
When they arrived, the barefoot doctor was not there, so they waited for a long time. When they finally arrived, there was a shortage of medicine.
Each person spent 20 cents to buy two cold medicine tablets, and then asked them to go home and boil ginger water to ward off the cold. All three of them were miserable.
Only then did Su Nian realize that there wasn't even a barefoot doctor in the village. Even if she caught a cold, she had to go to the next village or town to buy medicine.
If we want to buy medicine from the neighboring village, we must buy it for the people in our own village first. If we go to the town, it will be too far to go back and forth.
When Qin Yulin came back, Su Nian and the others had already cooked porridge and made pancakes. The four of them gathered in the kitchen to eat. They put the pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms on the table. Qin Yulin was stunned for a moment when he saw it.
"Hehe! Brother! Sister Nian caught the pheasant! Sister Nian picked the mushrooms!" Qin Yuxian could see Qin Yulin's confusion, and said in a low voice with a smile.
Qin Yulin raised his head and smiled at Su Nian: "I'm taking advantage of you again!"
This man who always has a cold face, his smile really looks like a tree full of blooming pear blossoms.
"You're welcome! Eat! Only when you are full and have enough water will you have the strength to earn food!" Su Nian sat down with a smile.
The four of us had a great meal tonight, and it was the best meal we had in the past two days.
Back in the house, Sun Yanyan and Qin Yuxian rushed to stuff their snacks into Su Nian's arms.
"No! I have it!" Su Nian refused firmly.
"What you have is yours!" Qin Yuxian stuffed another bag of biscuits into Su Nian's hand without saying anything.
"That's right! What does you have to do with us?" Sun Yanyan shared her White Rabbit milk candy, melon seeds, and egg cake with Su Nian.
"Why should I eat yours when I have my own? I don't want it! I can't finish it!" Su Nian shook her head and threw bags of snacks onto the kang where they slept.
"Sister Nian! Just tell me if you want it or not! If not, I'll stuff you in the bed tonight!"
"That's right, even if it's stuffed into your bed and you get stinky from feet or suffocated by farts, you still have to eat it!"
"..." Su Nian was speechless. What kind of person is this? They can even talk about fart snacks.
"Sister Nian! Just accept it! You gave us your work points and chicken to eat! What's wrong with giving you some snacks?
