Chapter 12: Peace

Time flies, Du Danshen has passed his third birthday, and he has not waited for Du Zhong, the life of the Liu family is very stable, except for worrying from time to time whether the other party has an accident, but there are not too many thoughts, and the Liu family couple do not mention Du Zhong to her much, after all, in the eyes of others, she is just a child who is not very sensible, and she probably doesn't understand much when she tells her.

And when Du Zhong left, she was only a few months old baby, and she shouldn't have too many memories of him, besides, Du Zhong has no news of him, it is the Liu couple, they don't know their whereabouts, of course, they are also a little worried, and it is even more inconvenient to mention it to her, but it makes her also worried.

As the sun set, Du Danshen held his chin in his hand, sat under the eaves and looked up at the sky, suddenly his ears moved, and when he heard the movement outside the courtyard gate, he couldn't help but turn his head to look, and saw Liu Chenglin carrying a bow and arrows on his back and carrying the prey in his hand.

She couldn't help but be happy on her face, and she raised her voice and called, "Uncle is back." "I ran over on my short legs.

Hearing her voice, He Shi also stretched out his head from the kitchen to take a look, and then a smile appeared on his face, Liu Qing'er, who was playing with shuttlecock kicking in the yard, immediately threw down the shuttlecock, ran over, and hugged Liu Chenglin's thigh directly.

"Dad, you're back."

"Hahaha, I'm back, I'm back, you're not dirty, be careful of blood staining you." Then he turned his head and said to Du Danshen, who was looking at his prey: "Just take a look, but don't touch it, it will smell fishy, but it won't be fragrant." ”

When Du Danshen heard him say this, he couldn't help giggling, stretched out his little finger, and pointed to the prey that was thrown on the ground: "Uncle, the harvest is good!" ”

When Liu Chenglin heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's, you don't look at who is out of the horse." ”

He Shi had already come out with a big wooden basin ready to help clean up the prey, and when he heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "You are really, such an adult still brags to children." ”

"Auntie, this is not bragging, uncle is really powerful!" Du Danshen hurriedly pointed to the prey on the ground, every time he entered the mountain, he never went empty-handed, and he could more or less hit the prey back, and this time the pheasants and hares added up to five or six, not less, and they could be eaten and drunk for a while when they were replaced with food.

She now also understands the price of the price, the general brown rice is five wen a catty, the polished rice is eight wen a catty, the pork is fifteen wen a catty, and the domestic chicken is twenty wen a catty, but the pheasant meat is more firewood, and not too fat, when the price is poor, it is only twelve or thirteen wen, when it can't be sold, ten wen a catty is also sold, but when the price is high, it can also be sold for fifteen wen, and the hare is about the same price, but the rabbit meat is more pressed, and there are several pheasants on top.

All the sources of the Liu family are all prey, and Du Danshen understands the price of prey more clearly, of course, these are all when Liu Chenglin and He were chatting, she listened to it and wrote it down.

For example, in the beginning of spring, the prey is not easy to sell, when the green and yellow are not harvested, many families are more sad, and in the autumn and winter, if there is a lot of surplus grain at home, they will also exchange grain for a few catties, which is better to sell.

"Of course my dad is the best." Liu Qing'er was next to Liu Chenglin and said with a smile.

"Yo, you two little girls, this is to praise me to the sky!" Liu Chenglin said funny.

He Shi glanced at him with disgust and said, "It's not you who provoked it, I'll clean it up here, you go and rest for a while." "After staying in the mountains and forests all day, she also feels sorry for men.

Liu Paner also came out of the kitchen to help at this time, the mother and daughter took the handle together, but they were not too tired, Liu Chenglin didn't say much, found a stool, and sat down under the eaves.

Liu Qing'er immediately ran away with Liu Chenglin, but Du Danshen stayed aside to watch He pack up the prey, she is still young now, and she can't do these jobs, but you can watch first, how to clean up, and you can help in the future.

He Shi glanced at her with a smile and said, "You don't like it fishy, go over there and play with Qing'er, it smells so good here." ”

Du Danshen shook his head: "I watch my aunt do it, follow it, and I can do it in the future." "The taste is some, but it's not unbearable, she is no longer the delicate girl, even if she lives in the Liu family, she can't eat white food all the time.

"You kid is really sensible, Qing'er is older than you, but he only knows how to play all day long."

"Mother, I also said that I would help you work, but you said that I was too young to do it." Liu Qing'er and Liu Chenglin sat under the eaves, and when they heard this, they immediately replied.

He immediately said: "Yes, yes, yes, I won't let you do it." ”

Liu Chenglin raised his eyes and glanced around, then asked, "What about the two boys Yuanshan and Yuanzhi, why don't you see anyone?" ”

"These two monkeys must have gone to play in the village below, and I haven't seen a human figure for a long time." He replied.

"I went to the village to play, and I was told before I left." Liu Paner hurriedly said.

"These two boys, they don't stay home all day long, Yuanzhi is just fine, they are still young, but Yuanshan is already eight years old, like a calf, let him go into the mountains with me to hunt another day, get up from elementary school, and get started quickly." Liu Chenglin said.

When He Shi heard this, he immediately stopped what he was doing, turned his head and said: "Although he is taller and stronger than ordinary children, he is only an eight-year-old child, so it will be too dangerous to bring it into the mountains and forests." ”

"With me leading him, as long as he doesn't run around, where is the danger, I can still let him have an accident, besides, with the child, I can't go to the deep mountains and old forests." Liu Chenglin said disapprerovitically.

This is also, He was relieved, but he still felt that the child was too young, although he was still worried in his heart, but he didn't say anything, the man's family disciplines the son, the woman's family disciplines the daughter, if she interferes too much, it is inevitable that there will be a loving mother and a more defeated child, so after thinking about it, he nodded: "Then listen to you." ”

"When I was at home, I led them to recognize a few more words, don't run to the village all day long, and give people a reputation of idleness. Liu Chenglin muttered.

I think when he was a child, he either worked here or there, anyway, he didn't have a free time all day long, how could he be like these two boys, who spread joy everywhere every day.

"Cheng, listen to you." He also realized that he seemed to be too used to children.
