Getting rich peasant women will turn the world upside down

Chapter 10 Picking up a nest of wild eggs
Early the next morning, Goro and Liulang dressed and went to the market.

Because the market was too crowded, the two brothers were worried that Xiao Qi would follow, fearing that he would be scattered by the crowd, so they did not agree to take him with them this time.Lin Wan'er was also left at home because her body had not yet recovered and she was not suitable for a long journey.

The two of them didn't want to waste the whole day at home after breakfast, so Lin Wan'er locked the yard, took a shovel, basket and Xiao Qi to dig wild vegetables at the foot of Nanshan Mountain not far from the village.

The village she is staying in now is called Liushutun. There are about a hundred families in the village, most of whom are surnamed Lin. They have settled here for generations since their ancestors, so there is more or less blood relationship between the neighbors. Lin Waner Along the way, several enthusiastic villagers greeted her.

Lin Wan'er had just traveled here not long ago, and she was not very familiar with many people in the village, but as a courtesy, she called her uncle, aunt, aunt, and aunt, and was praised a lot.

The big willow tree at the entrance of the village is an endless field of crops, a piece of green, and the wind blows, setting off waves of wheat like waves.

Lin Wan'er and Xiao Qi were walking one after the other on the narrow field ridge, suddenly there was a fluttering sound, a gray pheasant flew low in front of Lin Wan'er, such a sudden appearance made Lin Wan'er and Xiao Qi feel cold I was taken aback.

"Sister, what a big pheasant." Xiao Qi sighed, her eyes were shining, she stared at the back of the pheasant flying away, and swallowed desperately, as if it was a large piece of meat flying past him.

Seeing Xiao Qi like this, Lin Wan'er couldn't help but want to laugh, "The pheasants are flying away, you can't catch them even if you want to." Just now, she just watched it fly away in a daze, if she was smarter, she should have smashed the basket over. After all, the pheasant is so close to them, it doesn’t fly high and it’s a bit slow, they have a chance, even if it can’t be smashed to death, it can hurt it and fall down and can’t fly away. If you go there, you can pick it up Is it?

"Sister, do you think that pheasant laid eggs near here?" Xiao Qi asked, pulling Lin Wan'er's hand, looking eager to try.

Lin Wan'er saw Xiao Qi like this, how could she not know how careful he was, so she said, "It's fine to find a pheasant nest, but you can't ruin the villagers' crops, do you understand?" Peasants care most about their own crops Well, that is an important source of income to support her family. If someone finds out that it has been ruined, she will definitely fight that person desperately. She doesn't want to cause such a big trouble.

"Understood, sister, I will definitely pay attention, hehe, sister, just wait for my good news." After finishing speaking, Xiaoqi entered the wheat field, walked in the middle ditch, and the tall wheat stalks suddenly disappeared. His small body was removed, leaving only a small head faintly visible.

After a while, Xiaoqi came out from the wheat field, holding a nest in her arms, "Sister, look, there are so many wild eggs."

Lin Wan'er leaned over to take a look, and saw fifteen light brown oval eggs lying inside, slightly larger than pigeon eggs, but smaller than ordinary eggs, only half the size of ordinary eggs, this should be the one that flew away just now An egg laid by a pheasant.Unexpectedly, this time the harvest was quite good. When I went out to dig wild vegetables, I could pick up wild eggs by the way, and I could steam them for a meal when I went back.

Lin Wan'er put the pheasant nest in a basket, grabbed a few handfuls of weeds and sprinkled it on top to cover the wild eggs, in order not to be seen by her greedy third aunt when she returned to the village, and pester them to ask for wild eggs Eat, they themselves don't have enough food to fit between their teeth, so they won't take advantage of her.
