No matter how difficult the days are, you have to go on hard.

The Xiao family lived in a cowshed for three months.

During this time, they were ridiculed by the village, the next village, and the next village.

Widow Zhao, the stepmother, also deliberately came to sarcastically mock a few times, although no one paid attention to her, she still enjoyed it.

Liang Abao was still angry at first, but then he was not angry, anyway, he won't lose a piece of meat, so if he likes to laugh, laugh.

Don't all the people in the world like to see others worse than themselves?

These days, she wants to open, but she can't go back anyway, crying is a day and laughing is a day, so why cry?

She is also a top student who graduated from agricultural university, she will be able to do what others can, and she will be afraid of what others can't, what are you afraid of?!

If you think about it, in addition to the bad luck of crossing this matter, you really haven't encountered any other bad things, maybe all the bad luck has been used up, and it will be good luck in the future.

……

In late summer and early autumn, Xiao Che finally cut enough wood to build a house, and Liang Abao's leg injury finally healed and he was able to walk normally.

The first priority is to build the house before the winter comes, otherwise the winter will not survive anyway.

I don't have the money to hire workers, so I can only do it myself.

Xiao Che opened a flat wasteland halfway up the hill behind the village and began to dig the foundation to lay adobe.

Liang Abao helped boil water to cook rice, wash and sew up, tired and tired, but he didn't have to be a concubine, so he was much luckier, right?

It's just that luck is lucky, and there is still a problem in front of us.

Ah Bao found that all the rice bags and noodle bags at home were empty, and even the half bag of sorghum noodles was about to bottom out, and it seemed that he was about to run out of food.

Whether it is the Xiao family or the Liang family, they can't count on it, and if they want to survive, they still have to rely on themselves after all.

In the past few months, she has touched her surroundings.

The village where she is located is called Qingshan Village, backed by a big mountain called Niutouling, and there is a river in front of the village, called Lushui River, green mountains and green water, the name is simple, rough and realistic.

The place is good, there are mountains and waters, and she doesn't believe that two people with hands and feet will starve to death.

Even if the fields and houses are gone, Ah Bao sets his sights on the endless bottomless Niutouling.

It's autumn, and God should have a harvest.

……

"I want to go to the mountains to see if there is anything to eat, I have been there before, there are wild fruits." Her small one stood in front of Xiao Che, with a weak firmness in her big wet eyes.

Xiao Che looked down at her smooth skull, and couldn't help but raise his hand to stroke the top of her hair.

"Don't go, you don't have to worry about rations."

"I really know, you just let me go." The cat begged again, and she threw her face up higher, her wet eyes like tears.

Xiao Che hesitated.

He has lived alone for so many years, and he is not afraid of anything, but now when he sees the little lady crying, he is inexplicably irritable in his heart.

There was a thought all over her body, her tears must not fall.

"Okay," he nodded.

With his own, he knows exactly where he can go and where he can't go in the mountains, and he will never let the little lady be in danger alone.

Three days later, the weather was sunny and the autumn was crisp.

The young couple went to the mountain with two bamboo baskets, one large and one small.

Xiao Che is tall and big, and his steps are also big, and Ah Bao found that her two little short legs couldn't catch up with him no matter how she ran, especially when she was uphill and fell farther, she was a little frustrated.

And at this time, Xiao Che always lifted her up with one hand with a cold face, strode forward for a distance, and then put her down when she reached a flat place, and let her continue to chase with her little short legs.

Ah Bao's mood was like two heavens of ice and fire, and she felt embarrassed for a while, she wanted to come down and go, and when he really put himself down, she felt that this person was using her as a pet.

Xiao Che wanted to laugh a little, but he held back.

Ahem, a manly man, you shouldn't be as knowledgeable as a little woman, and let her blow up her hair alone.

In this regard, Bao Kitten said: If I can't beat you, where will it be your turn to laugh here, hum!

Walking all the way, we finally arrived at the junction of shallow forests and deep mountains, commonly known as the entrance to the mountain, where there is a small stream that is neither wide nor narrow, that is, the upper reaches of the Green Water River.

I was going to stop and rest, wash my face and drink saliva before continuing walking.

But as soon as she sat down, Ah Bao was sharp-eyed to find that a place next to the shore was full of wild cress, she had seen too many things like living in the countryside when she was a child, otherwise she would not have recognized it if she had changed people.

"What is this?" Xiao Che took a sip of the water in the cowhide pouch.

"It's wild cress, you can eat it." Ah Bao picked quickly, she was a top student at an agricultural university, and these things naturally couldn't be difficult for her.

But in Xiao Che's eyes, it's a different matter entirely.

She's so skillful, she has suffered a lot at home before, right? She knows so much, she was forced out, right?

He silently lowered his head and filled the cowhide pouch in his hand like a casual man, but if you looked closely, you could see that his whole face was almost frozen into ice, and his face was so black that it seemed that he was about to kill someone.

"Ah, there's loaches here!"

Po threw the little celery, stabbed it into the mud with his hand, and after touching it back and forth for a while, he suddenly pulled out a 'snake' five or six inches long.

It hovered and twisted and struggled, one moment sticking its head high to bite someone, the other twisting itself into a twist, and its black body curled and writhed.

Xiao Che didn't care about the black face, and his pupils shrank at the moment, and without saying a word, he stepped forward and knocked out the things in her hand.

"Throw it away, it's a snake!" In fact, he is not afraid of snakes at all, and he doesn't know how many he has seen in the mountains.

But I never thought about this girl and took the snake in her hand.

Someone in the village had been bitten by this kind of thing, and he died of illness in three or two days after he came back, so it can be seen that this snake will kill people.

"It's called a loach, and it's edible."

"I used to be so hungry that I would go up the mountain and catch some, and I didn't dare let people know." Po explained weakly.

Xiao Che frowned incredulously: "Eat? How is that possible".

He decided that this was the snake, poor baby, what had happened to her before? Even snakes have to eat.

"It's edible, I've tried it."

I don't dare to explain too much, she is a little girl who knows at most that she can eat, and it is not normal to know more, so she just said it.

Seeing the firmness on her little face, Xiao Che also nodded in disbelief: "That...... Okay"

Maybe, you can really try it? If it's really fatal, let's take her life first.

Po dug up a dozen more, and Xiao Che took it and wrapped the loaches tightly with a straw rope and put them in his back basket.

Po obediently transferred the loach to his small bamboo basket.

"I'm still carrying it, I'm not afraid.".

Her voice has the characteristic softness of a little girl, but her movements are as skillful as weathered.
