Chapter 13: Hands and Feet

Bo Zhong's tone was firm: "Eldest sister, I can definitely become one of those few people!" ”

Yuan Ning smiled, it didn't hit him, no matter what happens in the future, it's good to have this heart now.

When the two siblings arrived in the field, they set up two traps first.

Yuan Ning studied machinery in his previous life, and his hands-on ability was very strong, of course, the girl who studied machinery was a mechanical giant panda.

After some calculations, the simple mechanism was set up, and the danger was not very great, and it would not cause much damage to man, but if the pheasant got into the trap, it would be more difficult to get out.

She went to continue repairing the fruit trees herself, and gave Bo Zhong the task of driving the pheasants into the ambush circle.

Bo Zhong chose a stick and went around to pick pheasants, and Yuan Ning stood on the branch of the tree, occasionally looking back, deeply gratified.

She once thought that raising such four children was a heavy burden, but these four children were all very trouble-free, not to mention the three who were already sensible, even Ji Xiu, who was still in infancy, would not particularly cause trouble to people, she rarely cried, and when she was full, she either slept or played by herself with her eyes open.

With such four children, even she, who has always been indifferent, feels heartwarming.

As soon as she came down from a pear tree, she heard Bo Zhong's excited voice: "Eldest sister! Pheasant! Pheasant! Caught! ”

Yuan Ning perked up and ran over with a scythe.

A pheasant is entangled in the long grass and is struggling to make a "cooing" sound.

"Bring the basket!" Yuan Ning stepped forward and pressed the pheasant, and ordered Bo Zhong to tie the pheasant's mouth quickly, and Rao was pecked several times on the back of his hand, and the heaviest bite was bloody.

Bo Zhong brought the basket over, and Yuan Ning tied the wings of the pheasant and tied his feet, afraid that the straw rope would not explain, and rubbed the rope with the bark to tie it. I made a simple cage with a branch, put it on the double insurance, and then threw it into the basket, and said with a smile: "We can have a good meal tonight!" ”

Bo Zhong was still more delicate, frowned and said: "But as soon as our family eats well, the fragrance wafts out, isn't everyone aware of it?" "If someone comes to the door and says to take a bite, how can they refuse?

Yuan Ning thought that this was also a troublesome thing, it was better to have more than one thing, why don't you just cook it in the orchard and then take it back?

But whether it is made into roast chicken or called flower chicken, there is no chicken soup to drink, and she always feels that it is more cost-effective to stew and eat.

Alas, there are still too few pheasants, if there are ten or eight of them, can they be eaten in a different way, do you still need to worry so much?

In the end, Bo Zhong made a decision: "Eldest sister, this time, let's take it back here, our family hasn't eaten meat for a long time, I think...... Let everyone eat a few more bites. ”

What else can Yuan Ning say? "Alright, let's do it now!"

She had never done such a thing as killing chickens and removing feathers, and she didn't have this skill in the memory of the original owner, so all she could think of was to be called a flower chicken.

The two sisters and brothers were in a hurry for a while before they killed the chicken, looking at the chicken blood that flowed all over the place, both of them felt deeply sorry, the chicken blood can also be eaten! Disemboweled, looked at the internal organs of the chicken, except for the chicken gizzard and chicken intestines, the rest were kept, and the chicken belly was filled with some wild fruits and plant leaves that could be seasoned.

Mixed with the mud of edible wild vegetables that have the function of condiments, the pheasants were wrapped, a pit was dug and buried in them, and a fire was built on them.

The surrounding Yuanning was cleaned up, and the fire would not spread, but he still told Bo Zhong to watch intently here.

Bo Zhong dug up some wild potatoes and other things nearby, roasted them on the fire, and solemnly promised: "Eldest sister, I will be optimistic!" ”

Yuan Ning nodded, turned around and went back to work, but this time he didn't go up the tree again, but put the branches on the ground together and tied them with straw ropes. From now on, we must start preparing firewood for the winter, otherwise, even if the house has been repaired, it will still not be warm, how can these five children survive!

After sorting out these, and picking a lot of wild vegetables, I estimated that the time was almost up, so I went to find Bo Zhong, and the two put out the fire, found a few large leaves, pulled out all the roasted things, and wrapped them properly, and then dug up the pit, and there was a steaming ball of earth in it.

The two of them grinned, picked up the soil ball, smashed it with a wooden stick, and a hot smell came out with the aroma of tender chicken, and Bo Zhong swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily.

Yuan Ning asked him, "Do you want to have a piece first?" ”

Bo Zhong resolutely refused: "No, there is something delicious, it should be eaten by the family!" Although he kept swallowing his saliva, he didn't even bother to eat chicken.

When Yuan Ning knocked out all the clods of soil, and saw that the colorful feathers also fell off, revealing the white and tender chickens, Bo Zhong happily laid out the prepared big leaves, and the two of them wrapped the chickens layer by layer and put them into the basket.

There are wild vegetables piled on top of it, and nothing can come out.

The two deliberately rubbed for a while, spread out some of the branches on the ground to dry, and estimated that every household was cooking, before leaving the fruit forest.

The two went home happily, and on the way, Yuan Ning mentioned: "Originally, I planned to go to the river with you to find out if there were any fish and shrimp." ”

Bo Zhong shook his head, "It's hard to find, even if you find it, there are not many of them, and they are not enough to stuff your teeth." The big fish and prawns have long been fished away. ”

Yuan Ning sighed, yes, people are so poor now, if it weren't for the fact that pheasants are difficult to catch, how could they pick up such a big bargain today?

Back home, Zhong Ling had already cooked a meal, which was the simplest multigrain porridge, the countrymen had a relatively simple dinner, and most people even only ate two meals a day, because they were growing their bodies, and Bei Yuanning forced three meals a day.

Bo Zhong took out the wild vegetables in the basket, and directly carried the basket into the house, beckoning Zhong Ling to close the door.

Zhong Ling didn't know why, but he still scooped the porridge into the basin, brought it into the house, and closed the door.

Bo Zhong smiled and took out the roasted wild potatoes first, Zhong Ling smelled the fragrance and sniffed, but still complained: "Big brother, you are too wasteful, if you eat it raw, you will be even more hungry!" ”

A fist-sized piece of potato was roasted, and even half of it was left.

But she only grumbled, and quickly peeled the skin and put it on a plate.

Bo Zhong smiled, disappreciated, and quickly took out the chicken called Huaji, and asked, "What do you think this is?" ”

Zhong Ling rubbed his eyes, he couldn't believe it was true.

Shu Yu had already shouted: "Big brother! Whose chicken did you catch? ”
