The next morning, Lin Wanyue got up early, afraid of missing the opportunity to go up the mountain with Lin Weiming.
Lin Weiming took down the bow and arrows he had carefully maintained from the wall, wiped them with a cloth and oil, making them even more lustrous. In addition to the bow and arrows, Lin Weiming also took out a short blade.
Lin Wanyue found it very strange.
For breakfast, we had wild vegetable pancakes, a rare treat.
Making pancakes requires a lot of grain, and Liu Junlan usually wouldn't use that much grain.
But today Lin Weiming is going up the mountain to hunt. If he doesn't have the strength, how can he catch any prey on the mountain?
So spending a little more to fill your stomach is worthwhile.
In many families, only the able-bodied men are fed well, while the women and children are not fed as well.
However, Liu Junlan had his own theory.
“Children are like crops in the field. If you don’t feed them enough and fertilize them enough, how can they grow well? Look at your father and your older brother, they grew so tall because they ate well when they were young. Even if we don’t have those conditions now, we can’t let you go hungry.” She said with great experience as she tore off a small piece of the golden-brown, oily pancake and stuffed it into Lin Wanyue’s hand.
"Yes! Grow taller!" Lin Wanyue nodded in complete agreement as she ate the crispy pancake.
Liu Junlan's height was exceptionally tall among the women of Ning'an Village.
Lin Wanyue was at least 1.7 meters tall in her previous life, so hopefully the genes in this body won't be too bad!
However, she is small in stature and has a small mouth. Even when she chews hard, her small mouth moves like a squirrel.
Liu Junlan was delighted and couldn't resist giving her two more pieces.
After the family finished breakfast, Xuefu was busy with the family's clothes and the work in the vegetable garden, while Liu Junlan took the eldest and second eldest sons to work in the fields.
"Father, I want to go too." Lin Wanyue took the opportunity to hug Lin Weiming's leg.
Faced with his youngest daughter's rare affection, Lin Weiming picked up Lin Wanyue and mischievously used his newly grown beard to poke her little face.
The prickles from her beard made Lin Wanyue quickly use her hands to shield herself.
"Daddy's bad..." Lin Wanyue frowned in disgust, which made Lin Weiming laugh out loud.
That old man is really wicked.
But she endured it so she could go up the mountain to dig for ginseng!
"Wanwan, be good. It's dangerous up in the mountain. What if a big tiger takes you away? Daddy will be devastated. Daddy will be back tonight with some delicious food for you!" Lin Weiming estimated that it was about time, gave his daughter another kiss, and then put her down.
Lin Wanyue, with her short legs, was so angry at her father's actions of crossing the river and then burning the bridge, kissing someone and then running away, that her little tiger teeth were grinding together.
"Little sister, what are you doing? Let us take you to pick fruit and play!" Lin Zihan and Lin Ziqiu, the two brothers, came over.
Lin Wanyue had no desire to pick fruit, and she puffed out her cheeks angrily.
"How about I take you to West Mountain with your third brother?" Lin Ziqiu saw through his sister's thoughts and said carefully.
My sister definitely wants to go with Dad!
Unfortunately, her older brother stopped her last time, and this time she finally met him when her older brother was taken away by her grandmother, leaving only the three of them at home.
It's true what they say: when the tiger's away, the monkey becomes king!
Lin Wanyue's eyes lit up.
Her third and fourth brothers were so good to her.
But the three of them are too conspicuous; their father will definitely find out.
Lin Wanyue glanced at her short legs, realizing that running after Lin Weiming with his long legs would be a bit difficult.
However, she quickly came up with a good idea.
"You guys play, I'm going to take a nap." Lin Wanyue yawned in a mock manner.
"Oh..." Lin Zihan and Lin Ziqiu were just five-year-old kids after all, so they didn't think much of it and nodded, letting their younger sister go back to her room to rest.
Before long, the two brothers were invited by other children in the village to play together.
Before leaving, they both remembered to close the door.
Lin Wanyue crouched by the door, listening intently to the sounds outside. Only after confirming that Lin Zihan and Lin Ziqiu had both gone out to play did she sneak out.
Panting, he ran out of the village and saw Lin Weiming almost up the mountain.
Most of the people in Ning'an Village are farmers, with only two or three families engaged in hunting. The western mountain is dangerous, so there is no one on this road leading up the mountain.
Lin Wanyue looked around, quickly took out a small scooter from her villa, and scootered quickly toward Lin Weiming.
The village ground was worn smooth by people and livestock, and it was uneven, full of potholes. Luckily, the weather was sunny now, otherwise it would have been a muddy mess.
Lin Wanyue struggled to ride her scooter, regretting that the ground wasn't suitable for an electric scooter, otherwise she could have gone even faster.
Near the foot of the mountain, Lin Weiming had a persistent feeling that someone was behind him.
He turned around and looked.
I never expected to see his little daughter!
Lin Weiming rubbed his eyes: "..."
I'm not sure, I'll think about it some more.
So he looked back again.
That's right!
It was indeed his Wanwan, who was running wildly towards him.
Her little face was rosy, and her perfectly styled double buns were a little disheveled.
"Wanwan? You... how did you get here? Where are Lao San and Lao Si?" Lin Weiming was so nervous that he forgot that his daughter hadn't run away like this before.
Lin Wanyue quietly let out a long sigh of relief.
Fortunately, her father didn't realize that he wasn't running over, but was speeding along on his little scooter.
"Father!" Lin Wanyue ran over and hugged Lin Weiming's neck tightly, refusing to let go.
"What's wrong?" Lin Weiming had never been treated like this by his youngest daughter before.
This is something only his mother can enjoy!
Lin Weiming's heart melted. "Father will be back tonight."
“Guoguo said it’s dangerous on the mountain…” Lin Wanyue racked her brains and finally came up with a reason: “There are giant tigers, and Daddy will be eaten by them! Wanwan has to protect Daddy!”
“Wanwan…” Lin Weiming was moved to tears.
Although her small, fair-skinned body probably wouldn't be enough to feed the jackals and tigers on the mountain, Lin Weiming was happy to hear that!
What does it mean to be a sweet and caring daughter?
His little darling is willing to be his little armor, what more could he want?
Isn't it just a little inconvenient to bring your daughter along while hunting?
This is no big deal!
As long as he is careful enough and doesn't provoke those wild beasts, but only hunts wild rabbits and goats in the mountains, there won't be much danger.
