Chapter 3: Fill your stomach

Tong Xiaowu got out of bed and began to fetch water and wash her face, and began to prepare breakfast, but after finding that there was nothing at home, she gave up, and she had to get food today, otherwise the two of them would probably starve to death.

"You wait at home, don't move, just lie down, I'll go out."

Walking out of the yard, I saw the neighbor's sister-in-law Fu Lin at a glance, she was two years older than Tong Xiaowu, and Brother Fu Lin was also two years older than Feng Yuchen, so according to her age, they should call her sister-in-law.

It's just that this title is also heard by Feng Yuchen when the original owner was lying on the bed, and he didn't even get out of bed, how could he know her, but so early, and next door, she must be right.

"Sister-in-law Fulin early." Tong Xiaowu politely said hello.

Sister-in-law Fulin looked up and down at the fat woman opposite across the fence, and then snorted coldly, "Morning!" ”

This woman is a lazy person, she has been married for a month and has been lying for a month, I heard that yesterday in order to treat her, Feng Yuchen also spent half a tael of silver for her, half a tael of silver? It only cost five taels to buy her.

After saying the word "morning", Sister-in-law Fulin turned around and went back to the house, unwilling to deal with the lazy woman opposite.

Tong Xiaowu nodded, and said to herself: "Yes, yes, better than expected, I thought she wouldn't even pay attention to herself." ”

Picking up the bamboo basket in the yard, Tong Xiaowu set off to the mountain behind, now the family is surrounded by four walls, it is impossible to do business, the most important thing now is to fill the stomach, there is no food for the time being, there are a lot of wild vegetables, get some wild vegetables, you can also solve the temporary problem.

Not long after, Tong Xiaowu came to the back mountain, the so-called back mountain is not high, compared to the big mountain further west, this small earth and stone mountain looks mediocre.

Crossing a path, encountering a few farmers chopping wood, passing a small river, in front of which is a green forest, where wildflowers bloom all over the hillside, unknown birds sing merrily, and the occasional skipped insects chirp like chord music.

A sense of happiness that has never been felt before rushed from the soles of Tong Xiaowu's feet to the top of her head, now she has a healthy body, a boy she likes at home, and such an elegant rural environment, although she is poor, she is full of hope.

When I came to the river, I picked some edible wild vegetables, which are fed to livestock during this season, because there are enough vegetables in the yard of every house.

There are really a variety of wild vegetables here, such as gray cabbage, purslane, plantain, dandelion, and camellia...... Some of them are old, but they are edible when they are picked with young leaves.

After picking some wild vegetables, Tong Xiaowu found that there was a large area of aquatic plants in front of her, densely packed, taller than humans.

Her mind lit up, and she drew her sickle and rushed forward, and after cutting a few large hugs, she spread them flat on the stones by the river, and now the sun was full, and she was able to do it quickly.

Because the owner doesn't do much farm work, she cut a little grass, Tong Xiaowu felt a little tired, she sat on the big stone by the river to rest for a while, but at a glance saw the place where the aquatic grass had been cut just now, a big fish was swimming quickly.

There was a fish here, she immediately came to her senses, got up and jumped into the water, the fish swam very fast, but the intricate roots of the aquatic plants also prevented its flexible body, and it scurried east and west in order to avoid the roots of the aquatic plants.

Tong Xiaowu has little experience in catching fish, but this does not prevent her from being determined, after half an hour of hard work, she finally blocked a fish in the corner of the river, and then caught it, put it in a bamboo basket, and she was ready to catch the second one.

This time, she had experience, and until noon, she caught five fish, and looked at the five fatty and tender fish in the bamboo basket, and she happily covered some weeds on it, and then put the wild vegetables she had picked before on top.

Looking left and right, there was no one nearby, Tong Xiaowu put the bamboo basket on the shore.

After wading through the river, I thought that there would be some different discoveries in the mountains and forests, but there was nothing, because there are often villagers here to cut firewood, and it belongs to a small earth and stone mountain next to the village, so there are no mountain goods at all, not even a rabbit to see.

Looking back at the mountains in the west, Tong Xiaowu decided to go to the West Mountain next time.

When she got home, the sun was already noon, and when she walked into the house, Feng Yuchen was sitting on the bench facing the door, with a terrifying face, as if she was going to kill someone.

"You're hungry, aren't you? You see, what did I catch? Tong Xiaowu pretended not to see his expression, unloaded his back basket, and took out the wild vegetables and weeds inside, revealing the five big and fat grass carp inside.

Feng Yuchen's cold eyes blinked a few times, his expression softened a lot, he looked up at the dark and fat woman in front of him, and there was a strange feeling in his heart: "I thought you were ......"

"What? What do you think I'm doing? You don't think I'm running away, are you? Hahaha......" Tong Xiaowu joked, and when she saw the serious expression of the man opposite, she was surprised to find that she had guessed correctly.

The smile on her face disappeared: "Don't worry, since I am married to you, I am your person, so you don't have to think about anything, take care of your injuries." ”

After speaking, she was going to carry water to clean up the fish, but when she came to the water tank, she was surprised to find that the water tank was full.

"Feng Yuchen ......"

Tong Xiaowu clenched her fists, turned around like an erupting volcano and rushed in front of Feng Yuchen, her eyes were round with anger, and her face was black and red:

"You...... You're going to be mad at me, aren't you? Who let you out, who let you fetch water, you bastard, I'm going to fight with you, since you want to make yourself disabled, then I'll fulfill you......"

Saying that, Tong Xiaowu picked up her fist and swung it at Feng Yuchen's shoulder, don't look at Tong Xiaowu as a woman, she still has a lot of strength, but the fist she raised with enough strength is a little light when it falls, and she can obviously use her feet, but she only uses her hands, and only hits Feng Yuchen's upper body.

Feng Yuchen stretched out his hand and grabbed her small hand that kept waving: "Calm down, this water was not hit by me, it was hit by Brother Fulin." ”

"Huh?" Tong Xiaowu was slightly stunned, her hands were grabbed by him, and her face turned even redder...... Is the water made by Fulin Go? ”

"Well, I was separated after I was injured, and the water at home has always been helped by my neighbor Brother Fulin, and some food is also provided by Brother Fulin's family......" Feng Yuchen finished speaking, let go of her hand, and bowed her head slightly.

Tong Xiaowu felt a little guilty when she saw him like this, and she didn't ask clearly, so she actually started: "I'm sorry, I ......"
