"What's wrong? Are you angry?" Lu Qingyan looked at the man carefully, then asked nervously.

"I'm not angry, but next time don't leave the kids alone. What if something unexpected happens?" Gu Mingze shook his head and told his wife not to be so reckless in the future.

"Okay, I understand. It was my fault this time. I will reflect on myself." When Lu Qingyan heard the man calling her, she nodded slightly, apologized, said she would do it better in the future, and asked the man not to be angry anymore.

"Well, that's good. I'm not angry. Let's go quickly and go back to find the child." Gu Mingze was amused by his wife's serious look, so he shook his head to indicate that he had no other intentions.

"That's good." Lu Qingyan was completely relieved when she heard the man's words.

She was afraid that the man would be really angry, and whether they quarreled or not, it would have an impact on the children.

"Mom, you're back? We listened to you and are watching the rabbit here. It's eating grass in front and hasn't moved at all." Gu Jingming was told by his cousin when his mother was leaving. He said there was a rabbit in front and asked them to keep quiet and watch here honestly while his mother went to find his father and came back to catch it.

So when he saw his parents coming back, he didn't speak loudly, for fear that his voice would be too loud and scare the rabbit away.

"Well, you are so good." Lu Qingyan came back and saw a few children waiting there obediently. She walked up to them, touched their heads, and praised them.

"Mom, do you think my dad can catch a rabbit?" Gu Qiming didn't care whether his mother touched him or not. Instead, he looked at his father's back with shining eyes and asked.

"Of course we can catch it, your father is so powerful." Lu Qingyan still has confidence in her husband. After all, he has been a soldier for such a long time, if he can't even find a little rabbit, it will really ruin the image of him in her mind.

"Yes, my dad is very capable. He will definitely catch such a small rabbit." When the two children, Gu Jingming and Gu Qiming, heard what their mother said, they stared at their father's actions with shining eyes.

"Aunt, since my uncle is going to catch rabbits, then Shitou and I will go to the side to collect firewood, otherwise we won't be able to fill our stomachs later." Gangzi heard his aunt say that his uncle would definitely find rabbits, so he told his aunt that he and Shitou would go to collect firewood.

When Lu Qingyan heard Gangzi's words, she suddenly remembered that before she joined the army, her mother also used firewood to catch pheasants.

So she took a few children and picked up dry firewood bit by bit nearby.

When Gu Mingze came back from collecting firewood, he was holding a fat rabbit in one hand and a pheasant in the other, with a few pheasant eggs on the ground next to them.

This made several people's eyes light up. Immediately, one of them ran over with a little firewood and asked excitedly: "Dad, is this the pheasant my mother talked about?"

"Yes, this is a pheasant. I'll pluck its tail and make a shuttlecock for you to play with." Gu Mingze nodded after hearing his son's words, then threw the rabbit and chicken aside and took the firewood from the others.

Then he took the pheasant and the rabbit and placed them between the firewood. He found some hay and made a rope to tie the firewood tightly.

He asked his wife to put a few eggs in her pocket as they were going down the mountain with the things.

"Ah? Dad, I haven't had enough fun yet." Gu Qiming couldn't help but wail when he heard his father say that he was going down the mountain.

"If you don't have enough fun, I'll bring you here again someday, but now we have to go back before it's time to go to work." Gu Mingze thought that everyone in the team was working now, so they should go back and get the pheasants and rabbits out.

In the afternoon, I stewed them at home while the guys went to work.

This will avoid causing gossip.

Although they were back and it was okay to eat some meat, it took a long time to stew rabbit and pheasant.

The smell of meat has been lingering in their yard, and the neighbors must have come out to inquire about it.

"Son, let me tell you, this place is not as good as ours. The people in the brigade only eat meat once a year or two. If they knew we have pheasants and rabbits here, they would come to steal them, don't you know?" After hearing what her husband said, Lu Qingyan told Gangzi and Shitou to carry the baskets and walk back. Then she held one of her sons in each hand and followed them to reason.

"But these are our things, why would they come to steal them?" When Gu Jingming heard his mother's words, he didn't understand why outsiders would come to steal their own things.

"These are not our things. Remember, where we are now, every blade of grass and every tree belongs to everyone, so we can't tell anyone about the pheasants and rabbits we caught today, or someone will ask us to pay for them." Lu Qingyan told her two sons that every blade of grass and every tree here belonged to everyone, not to mention the rabbits and pheasants in their hands.

"No, Mom, we won't tell anyone." When Gu Jingming and Gu Qiming heard that their mother's rabbits and pheasants belonged to everyone, they immediately said that they would never tell anyone that the family had rabbits and pheasants.

"You are so good. When you go back, let your grandma stew mushrooms for you little chickens." Seeing that these two well-behaved sons were so well-behaved, Lu Qingyan discussed with them how to eat rabbits and pheasants with a smile on her face.

"As long as it tastes good, it doesn't matter how it's cooked." Gu Jingming likes to eat all kinds of delicious food. As long as it tastes good, he can eat a full bowl of rice.

"Hey, look, aren't these the two people we saw yesterday?" A group of educated youth were working on the farm with tired faces. Suddenly, a male educated youth stood up and straightened his back. He saw a man and a woman coming down the mountain, so he called his companions to let them see.

"Speaking of which, this couple looks really good together. Look at their two sons, they are also good-looking. I am really envious of them." A female educated youth looked up and saw that the couple looked very good together. She envied me out loud.

"Are they a couple?" Lin Zhiwei heard his companion say that the woman he liked was actually the soldier's wife. He immediately looked at his companion and asked, "How do you know they are a couple and not brother and sister?"

"What else do you know? Look how intimately they are walking. If they weren't a couple, who would dare to walk like that?" When the female educated youth heard Lin Zhiwei ask her this, she rolled her eyes and said

You know, now only couples can walk in the group.

If other men and women walked like this, they would be criticized for having improper conduct.

"But that woman looks too young. She doesn't look like someone who has given birth to two children." Lin Zhiwei obviously didn't believe what the educated youth said and still thought that the woman was single.
