Raiders of peasant girls

Chapter 19 Picking Wild Fruits and Harvesting Hare

Although she is a bit greedy, she will not eat other people's things for nothing.I heard that an egg costs five cents, and if it catches up with the price of two meat buns, it can weigh half a catty of rice, and if you add some more, it will weigh half a catty of white flour. Eggs are a good thing, if not good things, The last time I gave Shen shi wild eggs, can Shen shi call Xiaowu a prodigal through the window?What Xiao Wu said was not directly saying that she was a prodigal, if she hadn't said that Xiao Si picked it up, maybe Shen could still say something.

The life of Aunt Ma's family is easier than that of many people. Uncle Ma is sitting and working in a shop in the town. Aunt Ma's family has more paddy fields than others, with a total of eleven acres.For a son like Ma Erniu, at first glance, the eggs are for Ma Erniu's body, how can she eat what other people make up for his body.

"I'll take it for you." Before Jingyao could say anything else, Ma Erniu forcefully stuffed the egg into Jingyao's hands.Jingyao opened her mouth and looked at Ma Erniu who had already caught up with Erlang, and then looked at the egg with a slight warmth in her hand.Well, it's an idiot who doesn't eat it when it's delivered to her hand. She ate it, and her body after seven or eight years of oily water can't be repaired by just one or two chickens and fishes.

The big deal is that if there are more prey later, it's better to compensate them a little bit.

The traps and traps made by Jingyao are not included in the depths of the forest. The main purpose of her coming here is to hunt for prey. When she went around just now, she saw a hare in a trap.But now that she just ate an egg from someone else, she is really embarrassed to ask him not to be with them.

So he thought about it, and said to Erlang, "Brother, you collect firewood here first, and I promise to find wild fruits for Xiaosi Xiaowu. I'll go over there to have a look."

"Look for wild fruits, I know where the most are." Before Erlang could speak, Ma Erniu took the conversation.

Jingyao silently looked at Erlang, Erlang naturally understood Jingyao's thoughts, but now he has no good idea to leave Ma Erniu aside.Poor Ma Erniu didn't know that his siblings rejected him, and he was afraid that Jingyao would not believe him, "Really, I know that there are many wild fruits, wild strawberries, and wild cherries in a place not far from here. "

"Then you take us there." Forget it, if you can't avoid it, don't avoid it. Besides, the prey she may often catch in the future will be known sooner or later.After thinking about it and having an idea, he said to Erlang, "Brother, let's go pick wild fruits first, and then go around and look at my sets."

"Third Sister, why don't you and Er Niu go pick wild fruits, and I'll collect firewood here." Erlang rubbed his head. He didn't know why his sister changed his mind to let Er Niu know that they came to the mountains to hunt prey, but he did. He told Grandma to go up the mountain to collect firewood, and Grandma would be unhappy if there was no firewood when she went back.

"Don't be afraid. When I came here just now, I saw a rabbit in my mitt. When I go back, grandma won't be angry when she sees a rabbit." Erlang is only one year older than Jingyao, and it is love playing age.When Jingyao said that he was going to pick wild fruits, he was tempted, but he was afraid that Yuan would lose his temper if he didn't get firewood, so he held back.Hearing what Jingyao said at this moment, how could he not be happy.He hurriedly followed Jingyao and Ma Erniu with the rope.

Ma Erniu was the same age as Jingyao, and when he heard about the rabbit, he couldn't help but want to ask, but seeing that Jingyao and Erlang didn't mean to say anything, he held back and just led the way for the siblings.

After walking for about a cup of tea, I arrived at the place Ma Erniu said.

A piece of bright red wild strawberry is really beautiful.

"Look, I didn't lie to you. I found out a long time ago, and I just waited for it to ripen." Ma Erniu picked a bunch and handed it to Third Sister, "Here, look, there are wild cherries over there. The ones are all ripe, I'll pick them off for you."

Ma Erniu ran over and climbed up the wild cherry tree as he talked.The enthusiasm made Jingyao feel a little guilty, she was so ashamed that a person in her twenties should guard against a child of a few years old.

"Thank you Erniu for bringing us here."

"Hey." Ma Erniu is a simple and honest child, and he is a little embarrassed to hear Jingyao thank him in a serious manner.

A large field of wild strawberries and two wild cherry trees filled the small basket brought by Jing Yao.It's a pity to look at the unfinished wild strawberries and wild cherry Erlang and Ma Erniu.

It was Jingyao who said that she would pick them again tomorrow, and Erlang and Ma Erniu gave up picking.In fact, Jingyao has ideas. There are not many wild strawberries left, and it would be a pity not to pick them, but they don't pick many wild cherries, most of them are not ripe yet.After a few days when they are all ripe, they will come to pick them, maybe they can even sell them in the town.

Playing while picking, the time passed pretty quickly. Since the three of them ate a lot of wild fruits during the picking process, they didn't take out any dry food to eat.

After resting on the spot for a while, Jingyao wanted to collect prey.She made six traps last time, each with a cover. Even if the cover is not strong enough, it is still possible to collect one or two prey.

But the reality is much better than what Jingyao thought, they took in three wild rabbits and one pheasant.It's also fortunate that they came in time, otherwise the pheasant would struggle and run away.

Ma Erniu looked at the pheasant in Jingyao's hand and the rabbit in Erlang's hand in surprise, and said adoringly, "Sister Sanmei, you are amazing, you can also hunt. Only Wang Orhu's family in our village can get rabbits and pheasants. "

"When you go back at night, you take a rabbit back, but you are not allowed to tell others."

"I don't want it!" Seeing Jingyao looking at him, Ma Erniu whispered with flushed cheeks, "If you don't give me a rabbit, I won't say anything."

Seeing that Ma Erniu's cheeks were flushed, and his eyes seemed to be fascinated by a layer of mist, Jingyao cursed secretly, Wang Jingyao, you are really capable.Such a simple little doll was hurt by you to the point of crying, how can the adult's dirty calculations be used on such a good child.

"Third sister knows that you won't say anything, but it's just a word of advice to you." Seeing Jingyao's embarrassment, Erlang reacted quickly and said comfortingly to Ma Erniu.

"But I don't want rabbits!" Ma Erniu said loudly.

"Hey, ancestor, why don't you keep your voice down, I gave you the rabbit to thank you for the egg in the morning. Why are you so excited?"

Jingyao quickly covered Ma Erniu's mouth.They are not the only ones on the mountain, and it would be bad if other people are attracted.They are all children, and if someone robbed them of their things, they would only believe the person who robbed them instead of them.

"Anyway, I don't want rabbits." Ma Erniu said in a softer voice, but still stubbornly.

"Okay, if you don't want it, you don't want it. But you can bring some wild fruits back to Xiaoxi to eat." Xiaoxi is two years older than Jingyao, and she is Ma Erniu's older sister, called Ma Xiaoxi.She is not bad, she is a good friend with the former Wang Jingyao.It's just that since she woke up, she has done something else every day and hasn't looked for the creek once.
