suspected wife

The next day, Qiao Mingjin and his brother got up at the usual time to go to the city.

Ming Qi and Xiao Wan'er heard last night that they were going to catch pheasants in the morning, and they also clamored to go.It's just that Qiao Mingjin felt that the dew would be deeper in the morning, and it would not be of much use for the two children to follow suit.

She didn't want her two children to get up so early.If it wasn't impossible, she wouldn't have even planned to call out Ming Heng.All three children are growing.Now that she has found some experience, she believes that she will be able to catch more than last time, and letting the two children follow will affect her instead.

So he coaxed the two children, saying that he would teach them another way to catch pheasants in the daytime.Later, she and Ming Heng went to the city to deliver firewood, and the two young ones could catch pheasants by themselves while collecting firewood.

The two children gave up after hearing this.

The two brothers and sisters brought tools, each with a hatchet and a bundle of straw ropes attached to their waists. Fishing, sacks, bamboo rakes and other things were also ready, and they carried baskets and set them into the mountain.

It was still dark.The chickens in the village are still resting in their coops, and it will be some time before the roosters crow.

The two siblings went into the mountain and searched for several places before they slowly lit up, and some dappled light was projected among the leaves.

The two were very familiar with walking in the mountains, even if the light was very dark, it didn't affect them much.

This time, the two of them learned how to behave, and the tools were in their hands again. When they saw a nest of pheasants, each of them carried one of them. Qiao Mingjin let go of the fish in his hand very quickly.

Taking advantage of the fact that the pheasants were still sleeping soundly with their heads buried in their wings, and their awareness was low, they took advantage of the whole brood of pheasants!

Qiao Mingjin's aim has always been good, and this is not a moving wild animal, but it is half a bucket of water cheaper than her.

Only one rooster, five hens and a dozen chicks lived in the first one.

The two siblings couldn't hide their surprise, cooperated tacitly, and tied them all up very quickly.I used baskets, firewood and sacks to hold them in an open place, and then went elsewhere to find them...

It wasn't until the pheasants crowed in the mountains and the sun rose high that the siblings stopped.Today's luck is better than last time.

A total of several litters of pheasants were caught, and there were eighteen of them.Not even a half-grown chick.There are also hens in the majority.

The wild mountain rabbits also caught several litters, nine in total, and three in the trap by the river, making a total of twelve rabbits.They were all alive and kicking, and they were not hurt.

The two siblings had smiles on their faces.Looking at each other, you can see the deep joy in each other's eyes.This result is several times less than when he followed his uncle in the forest to catch pheasants and hares in the previous life, but the result is enough to surprise people.

The sun is getting higher and higher, and wild animals are extremely difficult to catch.The wild animals caught were not easy to release in the mountains, so Qiao Mingjin asked Mingheng to go home to pick up the ox cart.

By the time Mingheng arrived with the ox cart, Qiao Mingjin had already raked a lot of loose hair.

The two put the pheasants and hares on the board of the car, and then covered it with a layer of pine feathers loosely, and added some firewood. Outsiders only thought it was half a car of pine hair and firewood.

The two pulled the ox cart into the village.I met some villagers on the road and greeted her: "Jin Niang, have you picked up half a load of firewood so early?"

"Yes, third grandma. Are you going to the field?"

"Yes. Jinniang, you have to take it easy, Wan'er is still young, and I will depend on you in the future. Don't work so hard, the dew is heavy in the morning, it's not good to catch the wind and cold."

"Hey, I remember..."

When the siblings arrived home with the ox cart, they quickly locked the pheasants and hares into the woodshed.

There are no chicken coops in the yard, and there is no backyard to avoid people.It can only be placed in the woodshed.

Ming Qi and Xiao Wan'er were very excited, chirping around the group of pheasants and hares, counting how many there were and how much they could sell for.

The few chicks that had just hatched were also held in the palm of Xiao Wan'er's hands as if they were fun things, and they happily held them and watched them without playing.

Qiao Mingjin couldn't help feeling sad after seeing it.

The daughter's only toy, Xiaoshizi, was snatched by her cousin...

Qiao Mingjin and Mingheng ate a bowl of sweet potato porridge with pickles at home and then went up the mountain again, this time without bringing their two children with them.

The two brothers and sisters went to the mountain and kept chopping and collecting firewood on the mountain...

Before they were upright, the two seemed to hear Ming Qi's voice coming from down the mountain.The two looked at each other and listened on the spot, Ming Qi's voice got closer after a while.

"elder sister……"

Qiao Mingjin's heart skipped a beat, could something have happened?

He and Mingheng walked along the sound.

Huh, isn't that Ming Jue?

"Sister, the eldest cousin is here, and the second brother is also here..."

"Sister, I'm here." Qiao Mingjue, the second child of the Qiao family, looked at Qiao Mingjin and Mingheng with a smile and said.

"Second brother!" "Hey."

Qiao Mingjin looked at the gentle second brother and asked with a smile, "But the ox cart and the bed are here?"

"Yeah. The eldest cousin and two uncles helped to find a cow that was only two years old in a nearby village. Grandpa and the others said it was very good. It only cost seven taels of silver. Seeing that there was still money left, the uncle went to I found someone to make a car board, built three more beds, and made some furniture for the house, and bought a kettle, an iron pot, and a large water tank for each."

Ming Qi also smiled and added: "Sister, the third sister is here too. She is waiting at home with her eldest cousin."

"Ming Yu is here too?"

"Well, grandma was worried, so she asked her to see if there was anything she needed to help, and said she would stay for a few days to help my sister." Ming Jue said with a smile.

Qiao Mingjin's heart warmed after hearing this, and hurriedly greeted Mingheng: "Quickly, move the firewood to the car, and finish work early today!"

After thinking for a while, he said: "Ming Qi and sister went to get some cattail vegetables, and I'll let your second brother and cousin take them back soon."

"What cattail? Sister, can the vegetables you grow be eaten?"

"No. It's my sister who found a delicious wild vegetable, and it sells for ten cents a catty! My sister and I will pull it out! I will let my second brother bring it to my parents, grandma and grandpa to eat."

After Ming Qi finished speaking, he happily ran straight into the mountains.

Mingheng also said: "Sister, let's go pull it together. It happens that the second brother can help pull more. It happens to pull out the ones that will be sold tomorrow."

Qiao Mingjin saw Ming Jue's look of wanting to help out, so she had no choice but to take him to the stream.

When Mingjue arrived at the stream, he was amazed to hear the aquatic plants.I don't know how his sister knows that this cattail grass is edible. Could it be that the family has no food to eat and tried all the aquatic plants?

Immediately felt uncomfortable, and scolded Yue Zhongyao countless times.

He didn't say much, and quickly pulled it out as his sister taught, and helped cut off the green grass, leaving only a section of tender white rhizome half an arm's length.

The four of them tied five big bundles, put them in two baskets, and Ming Jue carried them to the place where the ox cart was tied.

After all the firewood was packed, he led the cattle and walked home.Qiao Mingjin kept asking about family matters...
