Chapter 6
Yue Jiannan hadn't come back by dinner time.

Yesterday's rabbit had been made into braised sauce and put on the table, but no one had an appetite.

Lin Chunju waited anxiously at the door, asking the two brothers Yue Jiandong and Yue Jianxi over and over again.

"He really didn't go to the field?"

"Did you see him on the way back, did you ask anyone?"

The two had already gone out to search around, but they didn't even see a shadow.

Yue Jiandong was extra careful, and went to the river to feel around, but fortunately, he didn't see any clothes floating on the river.

"Mother, don't worry, my brother and I will go out and have a look."

Yue Jianxi just took a sip of water, and was anxious to run out, but was stopped by Lin Chunju.

"This brat probably went to the back mountain again. I caught a rabbit yesterday, and today I feel wild. I really think I can be a hunter. Don't look for him, let him die outside."

The house was silent for a while, and a needle could be heard.

Even Yue Xing'er sensed something was wrong, and sat in the chair silently.

Lin Chunju gasped heavily, only Yue Qingqing, who was held in Zhang Ying's arms, screamed like she didn't know anything about the world.

But no one could understand what she wanted to express.

Zhang Ying hissed a little, wanting her daughter to be quiet.

Following Yue Qingqing's gaze, she casually looked outside the door, and suddenly called out.

"Is it Jiannan? Mom, Jiannan is back!"

Who is the limping shadow at the door?

Before Yue Jiannan lifted his foot into the room, Lin Chunju beat him hard with bumps from a broom.

"I made you lie! I made you playful! I made you not go home!"

Yue Jiannan didn't even have the strength to run away from the room, so he could only hold his head and scream.

"Mother, I was wrong, hit me lightly, mother, hit me lightly."

"Big brother, second brother, save me, help me persuade my mother."

The two Yue Jiandong brothers stood by, watching without saying a word.

Usually this kid is naughty enough, let the whole family worry about it together today, how can he have a long memory if he doesn't give him a hard beating.

Yue Jiandong said in a deep voice: "Mother, take a rest, don't get angry."

Just as Yue Jiannan was about to say thank you, he saw his eldest brother take the broom from his mother.

"I am strong, let me come."

Yue Jiannan wanted to cry but had no tears, "Stop beating me, I almost died today, I finally got home, you guys still want to beat me to death."

As soon as he said this, Yue Jiandong's hand stopped in mid-air.

Everyone looked at Yue Jiannan.

The kid's clothes were hung in tatters, his pants were covered with mud, and there were bloodstains on his arms. It was really miserable and indescribable.

Zhang Ying asked timidly, "Jiannan, what's going on with you?"

"Don't mention it, didn't I catch a rabbit yesterday, and today I want to try my luck again to see if I can meet another one and improve food for the family."

Yue Jiandong and his wife looked at each other, and they were really guessed by their mother.

"I didn't expect to meet Xiong Xiazi."

Although Yue Jiannan was standing in front of him wholeheartedly, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

Xiong Xiazi is almost the most terrifying animal in the mountains, no matter how experienced an old hunter is, he dare not say that he can escape from its grasp.

"I saw it running towards me from a distance, so I ran away desperately. At the critical moment, my clothes were caught by the branches."

Yue Jianxi was immediately bluffed, "Then you are out of luck?"

Yue Jiannan pulled up his collar almost complacently, "Fortunately, I was lucky. The branch just came out from here. I didn't step on it and rolled down the mountain. In the end, nothing happened, and Xiong Xiazi also ran away."

Everyone lamented that Yue Jiannan was fatal, but Lin Chunju kicked him twice with the tip of his shoe.

"Why didn't you get picked up by Xiong Xiazi? You bastard, do you dare to go to the back mountain in the future?"

Yue Jiandong's long-lost broom finally came down, and Yue Jiannan screamed, but he didn't dare to hide, he just kept his arms around his chest and didn't move.

"I haven't finished talking yet. When I roll to the foot of the mountain, what do you think I found?"

He carefully took out a wide-leaf bag tied up with a straw rope from his arms.

When the layers of leaves are opened, a yellow-white plant shaped like a radish and full of roots is revealed.

"Mother, is this the ginseng you mentioned?"
