I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 321 Catching Rabbits

If she wasn't afraid of slipping, she would have wanted to join in the fun. It's a pity that as an old mother, sometimes she has to be careful and not let her sons think that she is playful.

 “Go, be careful, you can try it with the net.”

 A rabbit in winter cannot run fast. It sinks into its snow nest and cannot get out for a long time.

Looking at the three brothers carrying the thing out, Li held a handful of pine nuts and followed behind, shouting,

 “Stop being playful, dinner is all up to you.”

 “Pfft~, do you think rabbits are so easy to catch?”

Du Shi held the basin, grabbed a handful of dried fungus, soaked it in, and joked casually.

The snow in the mountains varies in thickness. Some are deep and some are shallow, making it difficult for people to walk.

“Hehe... please give me some supervision. If you get caught, we’ll be in luck.”

Li Shi smiled, but she didn't care. She ate spicy rabbit a few days ago, and she still thinks about it.

In the evening, when Bai Anyan and others came back, they actually carried two gray rabbits in their hands.

“Oh my God, you really caught me.” Li went over to greet her and took the rabbit. She was pleasantly surprised and said, “Mom, we really have rabbit meat to eat tonight.”

“Then pack it up and eat it. Be careful not to puncture the rabbit skin. Let’s cook it together later and knead it into leather. When making clothes, make a small fur collar with a border. It will look good and keep you warm.”

 “Hey~, don’t worry, Mom, make sure the leather is intact.”

 Li prepared the tools with great interest and started working.

 Everyone is naturally happy to have meat to eat. Du Shi has prepared ingredients, especially sun-dried chili peppers, which are perfect when paired with rabbit meat.

With the experience of the first day, the brothers seemed to have figured out the trick. They went into the mountains for several days in a row and turned around all the grass. In total, they harvested nine rabbits.

 After eating rabbit meat for three days in a row, my craving was finally sated.

　　Du Shi pickled all the remaining rabbits and hung them in the backyard to dry, making them into dried rabbits for the New Year.

Bai Yunxi watched Mrs. Du busy, went back to the room, counted the coins and handed them to her.

“Send these copper coins to your third grandma’s house. It’s time to pay off the credit for the chicken. By the way, I’ll also bring a rabbit to your third grandma. You are the eldest in the family, and I will leave all the dealings with you in the future.”

After listening to her mother-in-law's explanation, Mrs. Du was not polite, "Don't worry, Mom, I will definitely take care of it."

Whether the mother-in-law treats her as a daughter or an eldest daughter-in-law, it is her responsibility to take care of the housework and deal with interpersonal relationships.

 In a blink of an eye, Bai Jingjing gave birth to her baby, and the time also entered the twelfth lunar month.

After a month of maintenance, Bai Jingjing's face became much rosier, his complexion improved, and he looked energetic.

During the period, Bai Yunxi took out the clothes she had worn when she was young from the cabinet. They were all in 70% to 80% new condition. They changed them according to her size, added cotton, and made two cotton coats for her.

The outfit she wore back from the Liu family felt unlucky to Bai Yunxi, so she changed it and threw it away at her discretion.

Two sets of cotton-padded clothes, one in pea green and one in light yellow. Du Shi also thoughtfully embroidered a few camellias on the neckline, which looked unique.

Seeing her daughter come out freshly dressed, Bai Yunxi nodded with satisfaction.

 “That’s right, it’s spirited enough.”

“Mom, you have been troubled this month.”

Bai Jingjing blushed and stayed in bed for a month. Her mother and two sisters-in-law helped her with food, clothing and washing. Even if she was in a regular confinement period, it was nothing more than that.

Now her mother and sister-in-law have made her a new cotton-padded jacket, which is very soft. As a married woman, it is really embarrassing for her to be like this.
