Savage Fortune Little Landlord

Chapter 17 The Harvest
Xia Weiwei didn't know that Qingmei would catch the slight heat emitted by the pile of ripe lotus root, and Qingmei didn't know that her discovery was just Xia Weiwei's unintentional act, and it wasn't intentional at all.

As a result, one fell asleep unconsciously, and the other groped for the source of the heat without asking and worrying about his mood, and came to the conclusion that baked food has the effect of warming a tent. I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

"Qingmei...Grandma?" Xia Weiwei, who was awakened by the strangle, said hoarse and waxy.

Insisting on affirming the temperature she felt in the first half of the night, it couldn't be just her hallucination, Qingmei lowered her head when she heard the sound, and saw the child looking up at her worriedly.

Mind wandering, staring at the child for a while, she said softly: "Ah Que, tonight we will go to the tent next door to squeeze with you, Father Aoki and the others."

挤？
Squeeze what?
Question marks popped up in his eyes, and a series of images of crowded tents in severe winter flashed across his mind, Xia Weiwei suddenly became alert.

She didn't want to squeeze into the tent with others at all, and she didn't want to squeeze in now.

"Grandma Qingmei, I don't feel cold yet."

Qingmei looked at the child: "..."

In the middle of the second month of winter, it is indeed not too cold.

However, if she didn't feel cold, then her act of baking food to keep warm was telling herself that she didn't want to share a tent with her.

Qingmei, who didn't know that she was putting the cart before the horse, stared at Xia Weiwei with complicated eyes for a long time, so long that Xia Weiwei felt inexplicable.

"Grandma Qingmei?"

Ome: "..."

She tried to open her mouth several times, wanting to say don't waste the lotus root, and A Que, you have to trust us, but she opened her mouth a few times, but she couldn't get out the sound of rolling down her throat.

This kid has been disappointed in them since she made that decision, how can she tell me not to waste so much and take our word for it.

"Do you want to collect grass stems today?" Qingmei asked.

No matter how you look at it, I don't think Qing Mei's mother is just curious about Xia Weiwei who is doing her activities today: "..."

Qingmei opened the corner of her mouth, her face was full of leisure.

Looking at each other, Qingmei forced a smile, and Xia Weiwei, after staring at Qingmei for a moment, said: "I will go to the water to see the traps and fish baskets first, and I will be by the water for the rest of the time."

If the fish trap can catch fish, she will dig more traps and make more fish baskets today.

If she couldn't catch them all, she had to figure out a way to get a fishing net, and even more so, how to salvage the pockets.

So, not only did she not have time to collect grass stalks today, but she had to spend them by the water.

"Trap, fish basket?" At first, these two words were inexplicable, and then Qingmei was worried: "Ah Que...you really don't have to worry about the fish."

Really not wanting to see the woman's eyes of guilt and self-blame, Xia Weiwei pushed her to sit up with her arm tightly hugging her.

"It's early, your father Aoki hasn't woken up yet." Without letting go, Qingmei pressed the child's head into her arms, signaling that she could still sleep for a while.

The tip of her nose touched Qingmei's tightly wrapped animal skin, and Xia Weiwei, who smelled the faint sweat on her body, felt extremely awkward.

She didn't move, but she said calmly, "I can't sleep anymore."

The hand patting the child's shoulder paused leisurely, and Qingmei, who closed her eyes and tried to force herself to squint for a while, finally let go and stood up.

After tidying up the animal skins, Xia Weiwei picked up the animal skin bag placed by the bed, poured the rock salt block inside into the bucket covered with hay, and then picked up the shorter one of the long and short stone knives and the stone axe.

Put the stone knife and stone ax into the animal skin bag and put them on the shoulders, then she turned around and picked up a pack of cold lotus roots, and smiled at Qingmei who was quietly watching her series of actions: "Grandma Qingmei, don't talk to these things first. People said, I will explain to you later. And these cooked lotus roots, you see, I ate them all night, and it should be fine. If you are not afraid, take some out to eat later, I roasted them last night Too many, including Father Aoki and you guys today."

The area in the tent was only so big, and it was impossible for her to tell Qing Mei that you should not touch that pile of withered grass, and she was in a hurry to use the pot after learning from the past, so the words came out naturally.

But she didn't know, she sounded like she was explaining to someone, the words she emphasized were sharp, causing Qingmei's face to change suddenly.

Only if you don't believe her, will you specifically tell her what happened in the tent and don't talk about it everywhere.Only because he was afraid that she would not believe it, he used himself as an example and told her that the roasted lotus root was fine.The right to choose will only be given if you are worried that they will not accept it.

"Qingmei...Grandma?" Xia Weiwei was depressed.

What's wrong with this.

It was far-fetched, Qingmei smiled when she saw the child's doubts at that moment: "Grandma doesn't want you to be tired, so I will ask your elder brother Heishi to dig back the lotus root we ate for you."

Opening her mouth, Xia Weiwei wanted to say no, and even wanted to ask Aunt Qingmei what happened to you.

In the end, Xia nodded slightly and left amid Qingmei's grandmother's increasingly difficult to maintain smile.

Thinking in her heart that only fish can make Qingmu's family feel less guilty, Xia Weiwei rushed to the water's edge recklessly, and when she reached the water's edge, she put down the animal skin bag and lotus root and went to pull the fish basket.

From Xia Weiwei's point of view, all explosions and barrel explosions are just deliberate actions by those who want that result.Therefore, when placing and digging traps, she expected good results, but she did not blindly believe that there would be good results.

So, when the fish basket soaked in the water all night was so heavy that she almost didn't have the strength to feed her milk, her first thought was not to burst the basket, but that the fish basket was too absorbent. The first idea is to take a good look to see if all the branches have the same water absorption capacity.

If all the branches have the same water absorption capacity, it will be a laborious job to fetch fish in the future. If not, she will have to pick the branches carefully when weaving later, so that the fish basket weaving later will not be so heavy.

"Pa-ta, pa-ta, pa-ta..."

When the sound of a series of objects hitting the water came, Xia, who was dragging the grass rope like a tracker, stopped slightly.

···She was a little afraid to turn around, how could she break it? !

The sound was very dense, as if there were many fish.

Xia Weiwei, who was very worried that there was something wrong with her ears, finally turned her head back, and with just one glance, she saw the black and silver figure flickering in the fish basket, and a smile spread on her face.

Leaving the wet straw rope behind, Xia Weiwei quickly ran close to the water bank, and then dragged the fish basket ashore.

The fish out of the water churned more cheerfully, accompanied by a little splash of fishy smell.

In no hurry to open the fish basket, let alone count the number, she dragged out the other two fish baskets one after another, then crawled and knelt by the trap and pressed the aquatic plants covering the surface of the trap with both hands.

With the aquatic plants sinking, Xia Weiwei felt the turmoil in the water, and immediately, she let go and got up and ran back.

Her traps and fish baskets are useful, they have caught fish, and the Aoki family no longer have to worry about her.
