There is no shortage of food on the way to escape famine, and Miss Luck is busy farming

Everyone also picked the fruits on the vines. Qiao Ran said that these small yam eggs can also be boiled and eaten, so they should not be wasted.

The children's clothes have also been filled with clothes used to pack fruits.

"Okay, it's getting late. It's time to make lunch. Let's go back! In the afternoon, call the men at home to come over with hoes and machetes to get all these yams and chestnuts back."

Mrs. Qiao guessed that it was getting late, and it had already been more than half an hour since they came down the mountain. She was afraid that the people on the mountain would be impatient, so she asked everyone to go back first and come back in the afternoon.

Naturally, everyone has their own faults.

Mainly because I don’t have anything to pack the chestnuts I picked, and I don’t have the tools to dig the yams. It’s better to come back after having a full meal in the afternoon and bring the tools!
The group of people came out of the forest, washed the remaining clothes indiscriminately, and then returned to the village with a lot of harvest on their backs.

Back at the village, the men had slaughtered all the prey and distributed it to the village chief.

The Qiao family got a fifth of each kind of prey, and the rest was shared among the villagers. The few men who went down the mountain to hunt with Qiao Ran got a little more.

As for the Qiao Dewang family and the Wang family, they didn't even get a piece of minced meat.

The old village chief kept his word, and all the good things in the village were not shared by those two families.

It's good enough to be able to take them in without driving them out and being robbed or even killed by other refugees. But you still want to get some of Qiao Ran's share of the village's things? no way!

It was really getting late and the sun was already setting in the west. The men couldn't wait for their mothers-in-law to come back to cook for a long time, so they had to do it themselves.

I saw my mother-in-law coming back, not only with clean clothes, but also with a bulging bundle on her back and a bundle of roots from an unknown tree in one hand.

Some rhizomes are broken, and white sections can still be seen.

"Why are you coming back so late? What are you carrying on your back? You have meat to eat today, and why are you digging tree roots to eat?"

The men asked their mothers in confusion.

The women looked in the direction of the Wang family and the Qiao Dewang family not far away, pulled the man aside, and whispered in their ears about yams and chestnuts.

When the men heard this, their eyes immediately lit up, and they wanted to go down the mountain with hoes and machetes to get back the edible yams and chestnuts.

"Don't worry, let's cook first. After dinner, you pretend to go to the mountain to take a bath. We women said we were going to wash your clothes. Then we can dig yams and pick chestnuts together."

These were all discussed by everyone when they went up the mountain, in order to avoid the Wang family and Qiao Dewang's family.

It's not that they are cruel, it's just that those two families are too annoying.

If they were to find out, I'm afraid they would start robbing each other like crazy, which would inevitably make everyone unhappy again.

It would be better to hide it from the two families first, and then let the other two families know after they have almost finished picking.

As for how much the two families can get back, that is their own business. Anyway, Qiao Ran discovered these things. If they don't tell the two families, no one will say anything.

Who told those two families to feed unfamiliar white-eyed wolves? After receiving so many benefits from Qiao Ran, even if I don't feel grateful, I still scold Qiao Ran. It's really repaying kindness with hatred!

The people in the village were very dissatisfied with those two families, so on the way up the mountain, the women discussed avoiding those two families and not telling them about Qiao Ran's discovery of yams and chestnuts.

Mrs. Qiao and Chen Huiniang also hated those two families, so they didn't say anything while listening to the women's discussion. Since the two families were isolated by the villagers, they both moved to a thatched shed with sundries away from the villagers.

At this moment, the men and children of both families felt shameless to see others and hid in the thatched hut.

Only Aunt Wang and Xiao Huang set up a stove to cook in the open space in front of the thatched shed.

They were full of complaints against the people in Qingshui Village and knew that no one wanted to see them, so they did not dare to look here for fear of being looked down upon by the villagers.

Both of them were cooking with their heads down, muttering under their breaths, complaining that the people in Qingshui Village were so cruel to their two families, scolding everyone for being drugged by Qiao Ran and defending a little girl like this.

Therefore, they did not notice that the women in the village came back carrying many things on their backs.

After a while, except for those two families, the mouth-watering aroma of meat wafted out of the pots of every household in the village.

A gust of wind blew the aroma of the meat to the thatched hut, making the two families' stomachs growl and their eyes glowing green.

The freshly made porridge with wild vegetables and watery soup, which I could not wait to drink down in one go without burning my mouth just now, now no longer feels attractive at all, and it has no flavor at all.

There were too many preys hunted today. Even though the Qiao family had already divided one-fifth, the remaining four-fifths were divided among more than 60 families, and each family still received several substantial pieces of meat and bones.

The bones were used to make soup, and fresh yams and chestnuts were added to the soup. The soup tasted very sweet.

If you cut some meat and fry mushrooms, fungus or wild vegetables, you don't need to add oil. The oil will come out as soon as the pig skin is fried in a hot pan.

The fragrant smell stimulates everyone's taste buds.

Not only the two families in the thatched hut were salivating with greed, but also the people who could eat meat, adults and children, were swallowing their saliva.

When the food was ready, everyone couldn't wait to pick up the bowls and chopsticks and eat until their mouths were full of oil. The gluttons in their stomachs were fed to their full, and everyone burped with satisfaction.

Those who received the meat kept half of it for dinner.

And with so much meat allocated to the Qiao family, how could they eat it all in one day?
Chen Huiniang wanted to pickle all the meat, maybe it could be preserved for a few more days, and she could have meat to eat on the road in a few days.

But Mrs. Qiao was a little worried. She didn't have much salt at home before she fled the famine, and she couldn't buy it in the city.

Before Qiao Ran fainted, the little salt she brought at home was gone. Qiao Ran "bought" a small can of oil and salt when she went into the city.

But how precious is salt to them? Not only is it difficult to buy, it is also extremely expensive, and no one wants to waste it.

The meat of these prey weighs dozens of kilograms, and even a can of salt may not be enough. What will be used for cooking after it is used up?

If people don't eat salt, they will lose strength, become swollen, and get sick over time.

They can't use up all the salt.

Just when Mrs. Qiao was in trouble, Qiao Ran leaned into her ear and whispered:
"Grandma, I have a treasure bag. It was given to me by the old god. It has a lot of space and everything. How about I take a jar of salt and marinate the meat? Or I put the meat in the treasure bag. In it, take it out when you need to use it? It can be kept fresh there, and the meat and vegetables will not go bad as long as you put them in there."
