Strong wife likes farming

Chapter 17 Catching Prey
Yun Shu laughed and said, "Actually, we just pickle the vegetables with salt and pepper. When the vegetables in our vegetable garden are ready, let's make some pickles and save them for winter, okay?"

"Okay!" As long as it's delicious, Yun Xin doesn't disagree with anyone.

In fact, this kimchi can be sold even if it is ready, Yun Shu rolled his eyes and decided that he must go to the town to try it.

After dinner, Yun Shu drove Luo Qingyi to the kang to rest again. Now Luo Qingyi's biggest task is not to take care of the family and think about how to make money, but to raise the baby with peace of mind and give birth to the baby healthy.

Yun Xin was full at noon, and she couldn't sleep even if she was asked to take a nap at the moment, so Yun Shu simply took her to the mountain to see if the traps set up yesterday had caught any pheasants and hares.

The two sisters walked up the mountain according to the road yesterday, and saw many traps set by others along the way, some of which already had prey in them.

However, neither of the two sisters touched other people's prey. This was an unwritten rule in their Yunshui Village, and they could not touch anything that wasn't their own.It's not easy for everyone. If everyone can touch other people's things casually, wouldn't it be a mess?

So no one would touch the trap that Yun Shu and the others set.

Before the two sisters reached the trap, they heard a few weak cooing sounds. They looked at each other excitedly and ran over quickly.

Sure enough, there are good things!

There is a fat wild rabbit caught in a mechanism, and the rabbit's fur is not to mention how smooth it is.

There is a pheasant in each of the other two traps, one is brightly colored and very attractive, the other is much more ordinary, gray and white, not attractive at all.

"Great! This pheasant is so beautiful, we'll get a lot of money selling it!"

Yun Xin was so excited that she took two steps forward to hug that beautiful pheasant.

"careful!"

Yun Shu quickly pulled her back: "This beautiful pheasant is a male, and it is very fierce. Be careful if you get close to it!"

"Ah? So powerful?"

Yun Xin clutched her chest and looked at the rooster with lingering fear, and sure enough, she saw that it was fierce, as if it was fully armed and ready to fight.

In comparison, the ugly pheasant is much more docile.

"It's just a female. I don't think it's bleeding much from its legs. Let's take it back and raise it, so we can eat eggs in the future."

Yun Shu casually pulled out the shovel from his waist, and knocked the ferocious rooster unconscious. As for the hen, she might have fallen into the trap earlier and struggled to the point of exhaustion. No more resistance.

The hare was much more honest. Its hind leg was injured, and it couldn't move after kicking twice.

Using the rope prepared in advance to tie up the three wild animals and put them in the back basket, Yun Shu rearranged the mechanism again.

She not only set up traps yesterday, but also hung up two nets!But the net is empty, nothing.

However, one of the nets was knocked into a big hole.Presumably a large prey got into the net and then broke free.

Yun Shu didn't want to catch any big prey, so he simply collected the two nets.The bad one can still be used for fishing, which is much better than prey.

The two sisters went down the mountain happily, carrying a small basket on their backs.

When he was about to enter the village, Yun Shu looked at the field to the north and suddenly wanted to see the three acres of barren land at home.

According to Yun Shu's observations in the past two days, Yunshui Village should be in the north, but by the sea, the people in the village usually grow rice.

It's almost June now, and it's not too late to plant rice.Yun Shu planned to plant the three acres of land with rice, so that the family would not have to spend money on food in the future.

But when she saw the three acres of land, her heart sank.

Rice likes water, but Yunshui Village has no other water source except for a winding river in the south of the village.

However, the three acres of land are in the north of the village, so it's no wonder Mrs. Liu didn't grab the three acres of land from her.

Villagers whose land is in the north of the village usually rely on manpower to carry water from the south of the village to the north of the village to irrigate the land.

But this would take too much effort. It's good to have a man in the family. If there is no strong man, just watering the ground will be a big problem.Therefore, the fields in the north of the village are generally used by people to grow vegetables or left unused.

Looking at the fields full of weeds in front of him, and at the mountains on the left and the sea on the right, Yun Shu sighed silently.

Why is it so difficult to live a good life!
She was not in a good mood when she came back from the field. Yun Xin seemed to see the problem in her sister's heart, and murmured behind her: "Sister, do you want to farm? Why don't we talk to the village chief grandpa and go How about opening a piece of land in the south of the village?"

Yunshui Village originally had little land, if there was really wasteland in the south of the village, it would have been opened up by others, and Yun Sheng would not have opened up the three acres of land in the north of the village.

With a small mouth, Yun Xin sighed and said, "Hey, when Dad was here, we used to go to the south of the village to fetch water every day, and our land can still be planted. Now that Dad is gone, we can hardly even drink water. The family The water tank is almost bottoming out, so we can’t just ask Brother Wang Han to fetch water for us! Well, it would be great if the spring water on the mountain could flow to our house by itself..."

Spring water on the mountain?
Yun Shu's eyes lit up, and he took his sister's little hand: "What did you say? Is there a spring on the mountain? Where is it?"

Yun Xin raised her little hand and pointed to the mountain: "It's on the mountain! Sister, have you forgotten? Dad found it when he went hunting on the mountain before, and he told us when he came back!"

After being reminded by Yun Xin, Yun Shu finally remembered that such a thing had indeed happened.

However, this was already two years ago. At that time, many people in the village were excited to go to the mountain to see it. It was a pity that although the spring water was very clear and clear, the distance was too far. The ditch, when the spring water flows halfway, it has all seeped into the ground, and it can't flow down to the foot of the mountain at all.

Later, the matter of the mountain spring was gradually forgotten by everyone. I don’t know if the spring is still there!

Yun Shu looked at the dry fields, and decided to go to the mountain another day to have a look. As long as the spring water was still there, she must find ways to draw the spring water down.

The two sisters walked back with their bamboo baskets on their backs. On the way, Yun Shu went to Mr. Hong's house to get some snake repellent medicine, and also gave him all the medicine money owed a few days ago.

Since Luo Qingyi had no other thoughts about Mr. Hong, it was better for them not to be favored by others for no reason.

Hong Langzhong was still not talkative as usual, but he frowned slightly when he saw the money: "Where did you get the money? Let's save this money to buy some delicious food for your mother, I am not short of money."

The money was returned, and Yun Shu felt a little uncomfortable.This doctor Hong is honest and good at practicing medicine, and the key character is also good.If Luo Qingyi really reunited with him, she, a daughter, would also agree.

But it's a pity...

"Mr. Hong, my mother asked me to bring this money, so you can accept it! Otherwise, we won't dare to come to you for medical treatment in the future."

Fearing that Mr. Hong would not accept it, Yun Shu directly put the money on the table in his room, turned around and left with the snake repellent in hand.

Looking at the silver, Hong Langzhong's eyes flashed with disappointment.But when they were about to leave the house, Yun Shu told them to take good care of Luo Qingyi and come to him if they had any problems.

Not to mention anything else, Yun Shu was very grateful for Langzhong Hong's concern for Luo Qingyi.

The two sisters walked home hand in hand, and saw Luo Qingyi walking home from Aunt Wang's house from a distance!
The two hurried to catch up, and after asking, they found out that Luo Qingyi couldn't sleep, so she thought about raising ducklings. They were going to Aunt Wang's house to see when the ducklings would hatch!
Looking at the pheasants and hares in the back basket, Luo Qingyi was pleasantly surprised. Who would have thought that they could catch so many good things in just one day!
Yun Shu weighed the basket, and said with a smile, "Mother, let's ask Brother Erxiang to bring the hare and the rooster to the town for sale tomorrow! I plan to keep the hen and raise it. It would be best if I can feed it. We can eat eggs every day. If we can’t keep alive, then I’ll kill it and make soup for you, okay?”

"it is good."

Luo Qingyi smiled and touched her daughter's face. There were fine beads of sweat on her forehead: "Go home and sleep first, and then do this after waking up!"

"okay."

Yun Shu nodded. In fact, she rarely took a lunch break at noon. One was that it was too hot, and the other was that she would easily suffer from insomnia after taking a nap at noon.But since mother said so, she can't go against her kindness.

When Niang San returned home, she first found a cage in the shack and locked the pheasant and hare in it, and then went back to sleep.
