Splendid Pastoral Wife

Chapter 4 The Baby in the Mountain
After talking for a while, Mrs. Song saw that she was warmer than before after recovering from her illness, not like the taciturn and sad face all day long, so she smiled and comforted her with a few words that the days will get better, so that she can feel relieved.

Tian Liusu smiled, and said with some embarrassment, "Sister-in-law, I actually have one thing I want to ask you to help me with today."

"What's the matter? Just say it, as long as I can do it, I will help." Mrs. Song has a round face, broad eyebrows, and looks very kind.

"I heard that some hunters in the village went to the mountain to hunt in two days. I want to follow them into the mountain and entrust the child to you to take care of for a day."

"What? This is not a joke. How can you go to a woman's house? Legend has it that there are snakes, insects, and beasts in the mountains. The most important thing is that there are ghosts there." Seeing that Tian Liusu didn't look like a joke, Sister Song hurriedly tried to persuade her.

Tian Liusu thought to herself that she had already gone in once, there were no ghosts there, besides, her skills were good, more than enough to deal with poisonous insects and beasts, but this time she wanted to go inside and dig more things back.

"Sister-in-law don't need to persuade me anymore. It's not that no women have gone into the mountains before. Go with the hunters and you'll be fine. I'll just dig some wild vegetables around the edge and come back."

Mrs. Song also vaguely guessed her purpose of entering the mountain, and sighed for a long time: "Sister, there is nothing I can do about it, but if I can help you a little, I will try my best to help you. If you insist on going, I will recommend it to you." Personally, he happens to be going into the mountains tomorrow, so you can take care of him by being with him."

"Okay, the person recommended by my sister-in-law must have some skills." Tian Liusu readily agreed, it would be even better if he could have a guide.

"Oh, that's my natal brother. He often goes hunting in the mountains. If he's lucky, he can store some wild game to supplement his rations."

"That's a good relationship. Since he is your natal brother and my brother, then I will rely on him."

After the two made an agreement, Tian Liusu took the two children back home and prepared to go into the mountains the next morning.

On the second day, Tian Liusu got up early to get ready, found a kitchen knife at home and sharpened it, and brought it to her body, in case wild animals came and went. She learned a good dart in her previous life, and it was her life-saving weapon every time she ran away. She is extremely skilled, hits every shot, and there is no darts at home. She rummaged for a long time and found a few three-inch long iron nails. She was overjoyed and took all the nails with her. The two children were sent to Mrs. Song's home.

When they arrived at her house, Sister-in-law Song's brother, Song Xi, had already arrived. The young man was handsome and strong, with a simple and honest look. When he saw Tian Liusu, he stood up and saluted her, calling her sister-in-law.

"Sister, my brother is a good hunter, so you can take care of him if you follow him. Don't worry about the child, I will take care of it."

"That's great, sister-in-law Song, you and I are not related, but Liusu has you taking care of me like this. It's really a blessing in my previous life." Tian Liusu thanked her from the bottom of his heart.

"Hey, the women in our village only know how to tend the few acres of Susukida, as long as they can live on, I can see that you come from a rich family, and you can read and write. Look, you taught two children How wonderful, sensible and loving, everyone in the village is envious."

Tian Liusu thought to himself, what kind of rich family came from?It's better to live a happy life in this small mountain village.

An'an and Lele made an agreement with the two children last night. Tian Liusu used to be weak but high-minded and quite literary. She taught the two children very well. They heard that she would go to the mountains to fix them for them. Eat, all sensible nods.

Tian Liusu immediately said goodbye to Mrs. Song and Song Xi and set off for Longquan Mountain.

Song Xi was indeed a good hunter. In just half a day, he used traps and arrows to shoot three hares, two pheasants, and finally a roe deer.

Tian Liusu helped him and shot a hare and a pheasant to death with an iron nail. The roe deer was rounded up and killed by the two together.

"Sister-in-law, do you know martial arts?" Song Xi couldn't help asking strangely when she saw that her martial arts were very different from before.

"I've learned it before, and I haven't used it since I came to the village because of my weakness. Today, I was in a hurry to use it."

"Oh, so that's the case. People with weak bodies really can't often use martial arts."

Song Xi was an honest person, he didn't think about it, he was fooled by Tian Liusu, he was so happy that he had caught so many prey today, and he talked a lot, saying that today was a lucky day, and he caught so many wild game.

"Well, you just said that today there are more hares and pheasants than usual?"

"That's right. In the past, when I went to the mountains, sometimes I could only catch one or two hares after staying for two or three days, and the pheasants were even more pitiful. This time, God blessed us and allowed us to hunt so many."

There must be a demon when things go wrong, Tian Liusu thought, did something unusual happen in the mountains?When she was hunting just now, she found that the hare and pheasant seemed to be running away in a panic, and it didn't seem like they happened to meet them at all.

She didn't tell Song Xi about this in detail. She was carrying a big basket and two big sacks, ready to pick good things from the mountains. When she heard Mrs. Song talk about the characteristics of Longquan Mountain, she concluded that the good things in the mountains should be few.

Sure enough, when she came all the way just now, she found mushrooms and day lilies, which are also rare and nutritious fungi in modern times, as well as loquats and wild chestnuts. God sent her to this impoverished ravine and she could still survive.

Halfway on the way, she and Xizi came across two wild ginseng. The two of them were very pleasantly surprised. The happiest thing about Orion's hunting in the mountain was that he could dig wild ginseng. This can be sold for a lot of money, and the two immediately shared it. took one.

She was so happy that she didn't close her mouth all the way. After Song Xi packed up the prey, she happily took out the two big bags that she had prepared a long time ago, greeted Song Xi, and walked along the Picking up while walking along the road.

"Sister-in-law, you can't eat anything in the mountains. Some things are poisonous." Seeing Tian Liusu pick off a tree that was covered in hairy things, Song Xi hurriedly reminded her.

"Xizi, come here and help. Fortunately, I brought a few extra bags. These are wild chestnuts, which are edible. With these, we won't have to worry about going hungry in the future."

"Sister-in-law, these things are poisonous." Song Xi asked suspiciously. In the past, some people in the village ate wild fruits in the mountains when they went hunting in the mountains, and they were poisoned, so they dare not eat the things in the mountains. .

"I've eaten this before, don't worry, I can tell if it's poisonous or not, come quickly and help me pick it off."

Although Tian Liusu worked as a thief in her previous life, she was a high-tech thief. She learned a lot, especially poisonous techniques. Poison techniques and medical techniques actually complement each other. He also has some experience in medicine.
