After the whole network was hacked, she traveled through the small fishing village of Datang

Chapter 12 Ah!People in the Tang Dynasty don’t eat lunch!
"Sister Su—"

"Miss Qingqing——"

Two clouded leopards, one large and one small, jumped onto the branches and escorted Su Qingqing all the way back.

The shouts of Zhang and Tian Dalang continued to reach the mountains and forests, and Su Qingqing quickened her pace.

When she emerged from the forest and joined the two of them, they aroused concern and asked where she had gone.

Su Qingqing didn't tell them about rescuing the clouded leopard just now, saying it was not convenient to tell them, so the other party made up a reason on their own, and they actually thought of it together.

They couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Tian Youmi was almost in the same boat.

Without him, both of them thought Su Qingqing had gone into the woods for convenience.

Because apart from this matter, the two of them could not think of anything else that was inconvenient to talk about.

After going down the mountain, Tian Youmi looked at Zhang and Su Qingqing with a red face, saying that he would go back and kill the wild ducks and share some with them.

Zhang said no, but Su Qingqing didn't express any opinion.

Of course she wants to eat meat, but she doesn't get reward for her work and is not very interested in other people's gifts.

I also picked up ten wild duck eggs, and went to the beach to touch some clams. I had a plate of steamed clam eggs at noon. Just thinking about it, I felt that they tasted delicious. There was no need to covet other people's wild duck meat.

Tian Youmi was clumsy with his tongue. After saying a few words, he ran away with the wild duck and gray rabbit.

He thought about going back and selling the gray rabbit to the uncle of his seventh uncle's family, and then asking his old mother to kill the wild duck and give half of it to Su Qingqing.

But when he got home, as soon as he mentioned his attentiveness to my mother, the other party saw through it.

Tian Youmi said that hunting requires a share, and he wanted to give half of the duck meat to his cousin-in-law's family.

But the patriarch's wife, Mrs. Chen, could tell at a glance that he was not interested in drinking, and she clearly wanted to be courteous to the young lady who was new to the village.

"Dalang, do you have a crush on Mrs. Su?" Chen asked him straight to the point.

My son is sixteen this year, and he has reached the age where he should be married.

When Tian Youmi was asked by his mother, he immediately stammered and refused to admit it.

Mrs. Chen sighed and broke his fantasy directly: "Today you went up the mountain, and my mother went to your third aunt He's house to ask about the little lady. She studied with the hermit in the mountains, and she is very knowledgeable. .Son, if you can’t afford it, stop thinking about it.”

Tian Youmi's face turned red and he shouted: "We went into the mountains together to hunt down prey. We already know that everyone has a share. Mother, why did you mention anything else? I didn't think about it at all!"

Mrs. Chen said coldly: "It's best if you don't have it. Stop daydreaming. Even if she's not a hermit in the mountains, but just an irregular person, that's not something you can imagine. Her appearance is the bane, and we don't have this in our family." I can marry you such a wife! Go and take the wild ducks and rabbits to your seventh uncle’s house to exchange for money!”

"mother!"

"Stop talking nonsense and go quickly! Don't say whether we divide them or not, I saw clearly when you came down the mountain. Mrs. Su was holding a bag of wild duck eggs in her hand. They were both harvested. There is no reason to divide them any more."

In ancient times, when a country was governed by filial piety, a mother could exercise tyranny in front of her son, but Tian Youmi had nothing to do.

He reluctantly argued with my mother for a few words, but was interrupted by the dry cough of the old man in the room, so he had to angrily go to the seventh uncle's house with the wild duck and gray rabbit.

It's just that the further he walked, the sadder he became. This meant that he had broken his promise in front of Su Qingqing, even though he had promised to give them meat just now.

This young man's thoughts are destined to be fed to dogs.Su Qingqing didn't think about his duck meat at all. As soon as he returned to Zhang's house, he put on Zhang's clogs, grabbed a net bag and a thin wooden stick picked up from the mountain, and headed directly to the beach again.

At this time, the tide came up, and no one was rushing to the beach.But Su Qingqing has the energy of the water god and is not afraid of the tide.

She first went to the area on the west side where there were many reefs, where she mainly pried oysters.

Every year from October to April of the following year, sea oysters are at their most plentiful. March is now the perfect time to eat sea oysters.

Su Qingqing had seen it in the morning, but there were many good things waiting for her to pick up on the beach at that time, and she didn't have any tools, so she didn't go.

Now I picked up this thin wooden stick with a sharp tip from the mountain, and I just wanted to try to see if it can be pried.

Facts have proved that it is not particularly easy to pry, even if Su Qingqing possesses the energy of the water god.

The main reason is that she just spent all her energy to save the clouded leopard, and now she can't mobilize it well.

But even so, let her get a few.

There were also some rocks that were difficult to climb while wearing traditional skirts, for fear of being torn by others, so Su Qingqing gave up. A few of them were enough for a meal.

She carried her net bag and went to the beach to touch clams.

I saw her immersing the remaining water god energy into the water, and everything in the water came into her mind.

There is no need to specifically mobilize the energy of the water god. Once you enter the water, it will have the effect of "searcher" and "big tonic pill".

Clams generally like to inhabit the sandy and muddy areas of inner bays with less wind and waves. They are easier to dig when retreating - of course, this is a relative term.

For people living on the beach in the Tang Dynasty, bending down and looking for clams in mud holes with eyes wide open was not worth the gain.

After all, these things were not valuable in the market of the late Tang Dynasty, and you could eat them yourself. Their fleshiness was not enough to offset the calories consumed by them.

Most of the people in the late Tang Dynasty had difficulty filling their stomachs. They even ate very little at night to save food. They even had little interest in reproducing offspring because of hunger. Who would consume their body just for a mouthful of delicious food? Where's the energy!

Doing this would have killed people in the late Tang Dynasty. It is different from the modern people who spend money to catch the sea after being full and have a playful nature.

Now that the tide is high, even if Su Qingqing has the water god's energy as a "searchlight", it will not be easy to catch clams.

Fortunately, she was smart. When she saw the small miscellaneous fish attracted by the water god's energy, she opened her net bag and fished directly, and caught two or three small fish.

Half an hour later, she caught six or seven clams as expected, which was more than enough to make clam steamed eggs!
Su Qingqing closed the net and went home.

She thought she would see Mrs. Zhang cooking lunch when she got home, but it turned out that the house was deserted, with no one there!
The stove was even colder, with no sparks to be seen!
Su Qingqing was stunned and froze on the spot.

She silently walked out of the woodshed and looked over the entire village. She didn't see any smoke rising from the kitchen!
In the blink of an eye, the truth popped into Su Qingqing's mind - ancient people probably didn't eat lunch!

Su Qingqing's stomach started to hurt when she thought of this.

Breakfast was eaten around eight or nine o'clock. In the morning, I climbed the mountain to collect firewood, and used up energy to save clouded leopards. Then I went to the sea to pry oysters, bent over to catch fish and touch clams. The meal I had eaten in the morning was already consumed. It's empty!

Now that the sun is at its peak, it’s time to have lunch to replenish energy, but no one is cooking!

Hunger was the most unbearable thing for Su Qingqing, so she looked at the pile of firewood and decided to burn it herself!
