Chapter 35: The Hunter
From a distance, I saw Li Yuechan standing by the wooden door and looking, Zhang Xiaoman hurriedly pulled her younger brothers and sisters and ran over.
Zhang Erzhu smirked and followed behind the four children, and Li Yuechan's eyes were red when she saw them coming back together.
Zhang Xiaoman was still wearing the clothes when he came back, which were worn from Qi Ziyun, Li Yuechan only found out that Zhang Xiaoman's clothes were wrong now, and as soon as the person walked up, he walked up and grabbed Zhang Xiaoman's hand and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Zhang Xiaoman saw that Li Yuechan's eyes kept rolling on her clothes, so she knew what was going on, and when she saw that the three little ones and Zhang Erzhu also looked over, she said, "Go in and say." ”
Li Yuechan thought that Zhang Xiaoman had some unavoidable hardships, so she strictly let the family in, closed the wooden door, and said as she walked: "Let's talk alone." ”
Zhang Xiaoman was quite amused, glanced at the unnatural Zhang Erzhu, and the three children who were looking at him, and said, "I'll take the back basket into the house, and my mother will take a look at it first." ”
After Li Yuechan saw the prey full of backpacks and carefully checked Zhang Xiaoman up and down without scars, she asked nervously, "How did this come about?" ”
Zhang Xiaoman smiled proudly, "Of course my daughter got it from hunting." ”
Li Yuechan didn't believe it.
Zhang Xiaoman herself thought it was incredible.
In fact, the prey is indeed obtained by hunting, but the hunter is Qi Er, and the hunter of the hunter is Zhang Xiaoman.
When he went, Zhang Xiaoman didn't see any wild fowl in the mountains and forests, but when he came back, he encountered a lot, Zhang Xiaoman couldn't eat enough vegetarian food, and he was very excited to see the live wild fowl, so he planned to hunt by himself.
It's a pity that her idea is good, but the reality is too real.
Zhang Xiaoman tried any method she could learn from the books, and she didn't catch a single wild fowl, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed, although it was very happy to be able to pick up a life, but after realizing that there would be no danger, she had more ideas.
She wanted to take a few pheasants back to replenish Li Yuechan's body, the two hens in the family were as precious as people, and Li Yuechan couldn't use them to recuperate her body anyway, so she could only bring them back from outside.
Moreover, the nutritional value of pheasants is quite good.
Zhang Xiaoman watched several different pheasants run past him, and suddenly felt that if he used wild fowl to engage in animal husbandry, would it be more promising than growing potatoes?
Her head was running at high speed, and people naturally stopped and didn't leave.
Seeing that she didn't follow, Qi Er walked back and asked, "Madam, is there any problem?" ”
Zhang Xiaoman looked at Qi Er, it would be nice if she had such a helper, at least the herding people had it, and they were not afraid of being robbed.
But she and the eldest prince of Qi are not married yet, and Mrs. and Mrs. keep calling, is it really good?
Zhang Xiaoman sincerely said to Qi Er: "Can you help me catch a few chickens?" ”
Qi Er was stunned for a moment, and he wanted to find a big excuse to refuse, but when he thought of his uncle's attitude, he couldn't help but nod, "Follow Madame's instructions." ”
Zhang Xiaoman pretended to be calm and waved his hand at him, "Go quickly, it's not good to go home when it's dark." ”
Qi Er, who lowered his head, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said nothing to go hunting loyally.
Zhang Xiaoman wanted to stick out his tongue.
It's really ashamed, relying on her unknown identity and making all kinds of requests, she will definitely rely on Qi Ziyun in the long run, and it will be dangerous.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with having a nominal husband who is a big official in the capital, the two can go their own way, and she can also be convenient because of him, even if he has someone he likes, ** there are countless beautiful concubines, anyway, she didn't expect to have a good marriage, just don't talk about feelings and don't be sad.
As long as there is nothing to do, no one likes anyone, and Zhang Xiaoman doesn't care if it's famous.
It's just that Qi Ziyun is not a good person, she shouldn't pick the sesame seeds and lose the watermelon when the time comes.
Zhang Xiaoman pondered.
Qi Er came over with a few bloody pheasants and handed them in front of her.
Meaning to you, then.
Zhang Xiaoman was embarrassed again.
He also thought that if Qi Er only caught one or two, it would be too few, not enough for the family to eat a few more meals, and he didn't think that the dead ones were put aside, and the living ones were put aside, and the chickens' feet were tied up with ropes made of straw, fluttering and fluttering straight to her face, there were dozens of them.
Zhang Xiaoman glanced up at Qi Er's expressionless face, and still saw almost inaudible teasing in his eyes.
She said how dare this person send the pheasant directly in front of her, it turned out that he wanted to fix her.
The mouth kept calling Mrs., and these people who were only loyal to the eldest prince were not convinced, because a village girl was so wronged that they were like a god.
Zhang Xiaoman pretended not to see the change in his expression, and looked sideways around.
She was taken aback when she didn't know if she didn't know it, wasn't this the only open place in the mountains and forests before? It was here that Zhang Xiaoman got lost with Zhang Dali.
Zhang Xiaoman thought of the river not far away.
She looked up at Qi Er ignorantly and said: "My mother was sick a few days ago, and she needs to eat fish to replenish her body, I heard the fat third aunt say that fresh fish is not allowed to be sold privately in the market, and the fish in the inn are very expensive, and it will take three days to go back and forth, and my father will not be able to eat it if he scrapes together money to buy it back." ”
The corners of Qi Er's mouth tugged again, "So what?" ”
"Over there," Zhang Xiaoman looked at Qi Er's dark face and pointed to the small river not far away, "I saw fish in the river, can you help me catch a few?" ”
Qi Er looked at Zhang Xiaoman's face again and again, and didn't find the slightest trick from this little girl, he told him that he must have felt wrong, otherwise how could he think that this village girl was like a little fox.
Qi Er handed the pheasant in his hand to Zhang Xiaoman, "Madame is waiting here, I'll go back when I go." ”
Zhang Xiaoman said lightly, "Just put it on the ground, and we'll hurry up when you come back." ”
It was as if he wanted to play, Qi Er really felt that he was too stupid, he shouldn't have looked at people as village girls, and he was young, so he tried to provoke him.
This is good, the provocation did not succeed but was provoked, and he will definitely remember today.
Zhang Xiaoman watched Qi Er walk towards the river tragically, wandering around the open field to find it.
In the mountains and forests, there are generally things that hunters and people who enter the mountains do not want, some of them will throw these things away, and some will forget to take them back, and unimportant things will generally not be returned to find them, so it is possible to be left in the mountains.
What Zhang Xiaoman is looking for is those things, whether it is a rotten back basket or a dustpan, or a basket, as long as there is a defective product, she can turn it into a high-quality product.
So, Qi Er hurried back with seven or eight grass carp, and as soon as he saw Zhang Xiaoman, he pointed to the back basket that was rotten into four or five pieces on the ground, and said complacently: "Weave it, I want to carry wild things." ”
