Chapter 5
With the sound of the door opening, Xiaobao trotted to Jiang Tuge and mysteriously handed the things in his arms to her.

Jiang Tuge looked at Xiaobao and sighed. This child is so sensible, even so sensible that it makes people feel bad.

Lingnan is a poor place, not to mention that Simu Bai was exiled here, and the treatment he received was even different from others.

For the same work, he always gets less wages than others.With a prodigal son like the original owner, it's no wonder that the whole family can have enough to eat.

Just when she was about to give the sweet potato in her hand to Xiaobao, Dabao suddenly appeared outside the door, and then the same sweet potato was thrown into her arms. But when he looked at Jiang Tuge, his face was still very indifferent, "You give Xiaobao Give it to him, if you want to eat, eat mine!"

Jiang Tuge looked at Xiaobao and Dabao with an indescribable feeling in his heart.The two of them have completely different temperaments, but they always have good intentions.The saying that human beings are inherently good at the beginning is indeed true.

She got out of bed and walked towards Dabao. As soon as she stretched out her hand, the child habitually covered his head with his hands.

"Don't be afraid, I promised to treat you well in the future. What's important is that you two fill your stomachs, I'm not hungry!"

This was the first time that Dabao saw Jiang Tuge not grabbing something to eat with the two of them. He couldn't react for a while, "Are you serious that you don't want to eat?"

"Well, I won't eat!" Jiang Tuge waved his hands and walked out of the house.

She glanced at the sleeping old scalper and the two mice, and suddenly an idea flashed through her mind.Food is hard to find in this place, but there are always some wild animals in the mountains.

She nodded to herself and walked forward carrying the bamboo basket.After taking only two steps, her legs were picked up by Xiaobao.Looking down, his round eyes were full of fear and loneliness.

When Dabao saw this, he stepped forward and was about to pull Xiaobao away. He knew that Jiang Tuge couldn't pretend for long, "Don't worry about her, she'll leave as soon as she leaves. Anyway, you and I are the same as having a mother, and no one except daddy cares."

With that said, Dabao turned his back.

Jiang Tuge patted her head gently. She was only looking for food outside, so she forgot to explain to the two children.

She knelt down to protect Xiaobao in her arms, and said softly, "I won't leave, but there is no food at home. Our family cannot starve to death. You and your brother wait for me here, and I will go to the opposite side for a walk. OK?"

Xiaobao raised his head and looked in the direction of Jiang Tuge's mouth. He was about to nod but as if he remembered something, he shook his little head like a rattle, "There is a big tiger in the mountains, I will protect my mother!"

Jiang Tuge knew Xiaobao's thoughts, but did not expose him, "Okay, you protect mother."

As she said this, she glanced at Dabao beside her. This kid looked indifferent on the surface, but he was actually the most vulnerable person.

"are you going?"

Dabao looked at Jiang Tuge and was a little surprised, "Me?"

Jiang Tuge nodded and cast an inquiring look at him again. "Just go, I want to watch you, lest you throw away Xiaobao!" After saying that, Dabao looked at Jiang Tuge like an adult, but he had already picked up a small shovel in his hand.

Jiang Tuge was amused by his appearance. It seemed that she would slowly make up for the two children in the future.

The three people walked for a long time and finally reached the foot of the mountain.Lingnan is not a prosperous place. It is droughty all year round, so no food can be grown in the land.

Just when Jiang Tuge was discouraged, the chirping sound appeared in her ears again.At first she just found it annoying, but now she thinks it's not bad at all because she can hear animals.

"You know what? This morning, the third child couldn't think of jumping off a cliff."

"What, jumping off a cliff?"

"Yeah, it doesn't know why it's so crazy."

"You don't know that it likes to hide things, go and have a look!"

Jiang Tuge looked in the direction of the sound and saw two gray rabbits.I saw the two rabbits running as fast as a bow and arrow.

Jiang Tuge hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and she was even more greedy when she saw the rabbit today.Braised rabbit meat, spicy rabbit head, what a delicious meal!

Xiaobao looked at Jiang Tuge like this, and his little head was filled with questions.

He stretched out his hand and gently pulled Jiang Tuge's skirt, "Mother, are you hungry?"

Hearing this, Jiang Tuge realized that she had just lost her composure. She smiled awkwardly, "Dabao, Xiaobao, do you want to eat rabbits? Let's go catch rabbits, okay?"

When the two children heard that they were going to catch rabbits, their eyes gleamed, and the three of them happily headed towards the direction where the two rabbits were running.

I don’t know if it was God’s help or not, but the two rabbits that had just run wildly crashed into a tree and died.

Dabao was the first to run over, and stood up holding the ears of the two rabbits, "Look, rabbits!"

"Well, we can have meat to eat today!" Jiang Tuge stretched out his hand and rubbed Si Shuo's head.

The next moment, Dabao took a step back.

Jiang Tuge knew she had to give Dabao time to accept her, so she was not in a hurry.As for children, how can they not be with their mother?
Compared with rabbit meat, those hidden foods no longer taste good in Jiang Tuge's eyes.The mother and son rummaged in the forest for a long time, and found all kinds of wild mushrooms and fungus.
