This made Xu Zhongjun regret it very much, how could he be cheap, and gave the old chief half a catty of beef jerky for him to taste, it doesn't matter if he tastes it, the rest can't be saved, he originally wanted to eat it slowly.

As winter turns to spring, the weather is getting warmer and warmer, and people are gradually taking off their bulky cotton clothes and putting on thin spring clothes.

In the middle of February of the lunar calendar, the villagers also began to get busy again, not only to go to the production team to work every day, but also to take time to plant sweet potatoes and vegetables in their own land and yards, but also to hatch chickens and ducklings, catch piglets and raise poultry, and keep their busy feet on the ground.

Xie Xiaonian is now more than 3 months old, so she didn't work with the production team, but slowly busy with her family's affairs.

With the help of Xu's mother, Xie Xiaonian barely worked, so she planted sweet potatoes, potatoes and various vegetables on the 2 points of her family's self-reserved land and the open space in the yard.

Although she doesn't grow much of everything, she is the only one in the family, and it is enough for her to eat.

Xie Xiaonian now also raises 10 chicks and 6 ducklings, and catches 2 piglets from the production team.

And her family will also hand over the task pig from this year, so Xie Xiaonian must also catch 2 heads and raise them, and when it is really inconvenient, she will ask her sister-in-law to help take care of them, and the chickens raised can just be eaten when she is confined.

Xie Xiaonian and the original owner are both birthdays on the 2nd day of the third month of the lunar calendar, because only the elderly and children will celebrate birthdays here, so on the birthday day, Xie Xiaonian did not tell others, except for cooking himself a bowl of longevity noodles at night, he still lived as usual.

Up to now, Xie Xiaonian has almost traveled over for a whole year, looking back on this year, although he was not very satisfied at first, and he was a little hesitant, but then it was a smooth ride.

Although there is a shortage of materials in this era, no air conditioning, no heating and no Internet, Xie Xiaonian feels very happy, and now he has a child who is connected to his blood, and I believe that he will get better and better in the future.

I don't need any vigorous days, as long as I live a simple life like my parents and have a small but exact happiness.

Because Xie Xiaonian can't carry water, the water for eating at home and the water for watering the vegetable field are all picked by the eldest brother, and even the pigweed at home is cut with the help of Orchid and Weiguo, so Xie Xiaonian thinks about how to repay the eldest brother's family.

If they gave money to the eldest brother's family, they would definitely not ask for it, thinking about it, and finally Xie Xiaonian decided to teach Weiguo to hunt.

Wei Guo is 13 years old this year, according to the habit here, if you count the virtual age, he is already 14 years old, he is completely a big child at this age in the countryside, and he will be able to work in the team in two years, so it is okay for Xie Xiaonian to teach him to hunt.

This not only fulfilled the previous promise and met the wish of defending the country, but also the sister-in-law's family will be able to see meat from time to time in the future, after all, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish.

Anyway, she was also going to take the orchid up the mountain to collect medicine, which happened to kill two birds with one stone.

Originally, a boy as big as Wei Guo in the village was in the mountains all day long, and he also knew how to lay ropes and dig traps, but most of them were not specialized hunters after all, and they had not really studied, plus there were few prey on the mountain on this side of Xujialing, so ordinary people could catch one or two prey when they were lucky.

So Xie Xiaonian decided to teach Wei Guo what he knew, how to observe animal tracks and how to make traps, so that he could catch prey as much as possible.

Just do it when you think about it, when you were having dinner that night, while everyone was there, Xie Xiaonian went directly to her sister-in-law's house.

When Xie Xiaonian arrived, the sister-in-law's family had just finished eating, and when she saw Xie Xiaonian coming, the sister-in-law greeted: "Xiaonian is here, have you eaten?" ”

"I've eaten, sister-in-law, you can eat quickly, I'll tell you something." Xie Xiaonian replied.

"What's the matter, you say." Mother Xu said happily.

"I want to start tomorrow and officially take the orchid to the mountain to collect medicine, she has been learning written knowledge with me for so long, and it is time to go on a field trip to learn the results. Also, didn't Wei Guo say that he wanted to learn how to hunt with me, and it happened that he would rest tomorrow and take her with him, otherwise I wouldn't be able to go up the mountain when I was a month old. Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.

As the saying goes, Artemisia in March and April, cut it as firewood in May, the same kind of medicinal material, picked in different seasons and different hours, the medicinal effect is very different, and at this time, there are a lot of medicinal materials on the mountain that can be picked, if this time passes, there is no more.

"But now that you are pregnant, how can you go up the mountain, I think it is better to let the orchid go up the mountain to collect medicine by herself, and then bring it back to show you." Mother Xu said disapprovingly.

"Mother, my belly has been more than 4 months, the fetus has been stabilized, and it is okay to go to the mountain, you see many pregnant women in the village, don't they also work every day, compared to them, I am already blessed enough. And let me stay at home every day, I can't stay, you just let me go, okay, I promise to only go to safe places. Xie Xiaonian shook Xu's mother's arm and said coquettishly.

"That's fine, but you have to be careful, don't you?" Mother Xu was helpless by Xiao Nian, so she could only compromise.

"Don't worry, mother, I'm a doctor and I know how to protect myself and my children." Xie Xiaonian said happily.

"Xiao Nian, it's great that you are willing to teach Weiguo, he has long wanted to learn to hunt" Li Suxin said happily.

Li Suxin knows that Xie Xiaonian is capable, and now she is willing to teach Weiguo, she will die of happiness, so that in the future, the family can add a meat dish from time to time, and it will not be so that the children in the family will not be able to eat meat once a year.

And Wei Guo, who was on the side, listened to Xie Xiaonian's words, and after seeing that his family agreed, his eyes immediately lit up, and he forgot to eat.

And Orchid is also very excited, she has studied book knowledge for so long, and has memorized a lot of pharmacology, and she can finally do it herself.

"Of course, sister-in-law, who of us is with whom, maybe by the time I am confined, there will not be enough chickens at home, and I will have to rely on my eldest nephew to hunt pheasants for me. If you are willing, then I will start teaching Weiguo how to make a rope sleeve now, and I will take him and Orchid directly up the mountain tomorrow. Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.

"I want to learn, and I want to hunt." The Wei family was on the side, not to be outdone, and said.

"Okay, when our Wei family grows up, let your aunt teach you too." Mother Xu coaxed her little grandson and said with a smile.

Early the next morning, Xie Xiaonian took Wei Guo and Orchid up the mountain, because they didn't want others to know, so they carried the basket on their backs and pretended to go to the mountain to chop firewood and pick mushrooms.

Because digging herbs is more time-consuming, after Xie Xiaonian arrived at the mountain, he was ready to teach Weiguo to hunt first.

They first went to the place where Xie Xiaonian used to go before, and only after that did they find that someone had already laid a trap there, and it seemed that others had noticed this place years ago.

This mountain is on a first-come, first-served basis, so Xie Xiaonian took the two of them to other places, and then while arranging, he taught Weiguo how to judge whether there are animals passing by, what kind of animals, where to place the trap is most appropriate, and so on.

Of course, for the sake of safety, Xie Xiaonian is looking for places where small animals haunt.

Originally, Xie Xiaonian mainly taught Weiguo, but he didn't expect Orchid to study very seriously next to him.

After arranging the rope sleeve and digging 2 traps together, Xie Xiaonian told the two of them as much as possible about the main points and the experience he had summarized.

But after all, what she said was not as real as their own actual experience, so it was up to them to know how much they could learn, how skilled they were, and whether they could catch their prey, and they could only talk about the main points as much as possible.

"Auntie, can you catch prey during the day today?" After arranging it, Wei Guo asked uncertainly.

"I don't know if I can catch this, I won't know until I go up the mountain tomorrow, but there are many animals that are active at night, so the trap we just laid out should not be too likely to catch prey during the day." Although Xie Xiaonian knew Wei Guo's mood at this time, he still told the truth.

"Then if I catch it today, can't I come and see it in the afternoon, I have to go to school tomorrow, and if I come back from school to see it, will the prey be taken away by others?" Wei Guo said worriedly.

"If you're really worried, let's come back at 3 or 4 p.m." Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.

"Yes, yes!" Wei Guo shouted excitedly.

"It's nothing to do if you set up a trap, if you don't defend the country, you can go back first, and come back in the afternoon." Xie Xiaonian suggested.

"No, auntie, I'll go digging herbs with you, maybe I can help." He was still thinking about his trap, but he didn't want to go down.

"Alright then, you can follow us." Then, Xie Xiaonian led the two of them and began to dig up the medicinal herbs.

Because Xie Xiaonian's main purpose is to teach orchids to know medicinal materials, not to look for any valuable medicinal materials, so they have been digging up ordinary medicinal materials such as Zhimu and Yuanzhi.

At noon, a few people didn't go back, so they boiled some hot water on the mountain and ate some pickles they brought.

"Auntie, let's go and see if we catch any prey!" Wei Guo saw that the sun was about to set, and said hurriedly.

Seeing that Wei Guo had been waiting absentmindedly for a day, Xie Xiaonian said with a smile: "Okay, let's go over and have a look now." ”

Seeing that Xie Xiaonian agreed, Wei Guo hurriedly walked in the direction of the trap.

"Defend the country, slow down, pay attention to safety! Orchid, you follow Weiguo to have a look, don't let him run around, I'll follow you slowly behind. Xie Xiaonian saw that Wei Guo was walking so fast, so he hurriedly instructed.

Because Xie Xiaonian walked relatively slowly, when the three of them met again, Wei Guo and the two had already checked the rope nooses and traps they had arranged.

Xie Xiaonian looked at Wei Guo's sinister smile and knew that the two of them must have gained.

Sure enough, Wei Guo ran to Xie Xiaonian and took out something wrapped in withered grass directly from the back basket, and when he opened it, he saw that it was a pheasant whose neck had been twisted.

Wei Guo said excitedly: "Auntie, look, you really caught it, go to my house today, let my mother cook chicken soup for you to drink, I haven't eaten meat for a long time." ”

At this time, he seemed to forget that he had only eaten the bacon given by Xie Xiaonian half a month ago.

Xie Xiaonian saw that he was excited, and he did it so thoroughly, knowing that his wealth would not be exposed, he responded: "Okay, then today my aunt will take advantage of the light of our defense of the country and eat a meal of meat." ”

After picking up some firewood, they went down the mountain together to go back to the sister-in-law's house.

Because Xiao Nian was pregnant, Li Suxin cooked the pheasant in chicken soup.

And Xie Xiaonian took the orchids and cleaned and dried the medicinal herbs picked today in the yard.

"Yo, sister-in-law, your family eats meat again, this day is really moisturizing!" Just when the family was busy, Fan Min's shrill voice suddenly came from the gate.
