"Brother, let's eat rabbit meat at night, I caught it with my sister today." Jiang Ziming appeared like a treasure again, ran towards his sister's back, and took out a gray rabbit with blurred flesh and blood from it.

Jiang Ziming's Xianbao did not make Jiang Amao happy, but frowned and said, "Niuniu, this rabbit ......" He wanted to speak and stopped.

Niuniu is Jiang Yuer's nickname, and people in the countryside think that children's names should not be so big. There's a nickname or something, it's easy to feed.

"Brother, don't worry, this is a hunting pit I dug on our ridges." Jiang Yuer explained.

"Brother, don't worry, my sister and I have caught it several times, and sometimes it's still a pheasant! The rabbits have eaten it several times. Jiang Ziming's face was proud, and his small chin was raised high.

"Yes, Niu Niu. What's in front of our house? This sentence, he wanted to ask from the moment he entered the door. He picked it up and smelled it, and it smelled a little weird. I just don't know what my younger siblings are doing with this thing.

Moreover, that thing, how to look at it, how to look like the one on the mountain, listen to the older generation, that thing, you can't touch it, you will get sick.

"Oooh! It's an anise, and it's a good thing. It can be used as a spice or as a medicine. Jiang Yu'er paused and said, "Brother, when you go to town when you go back, take some with you, find a pharmacy and ask, if anyone wants it!" ”

"Someone wants this?" Jiang Amao obviously didn't believe it.

Jiang Yu'er had no choice, and in the end she could only say that she would go to the town with him next time she was in the market.

The three brothers and sisters got some food, but it was still wild vegetables and rabbit meat, and there were no other ingredients or anything. Jiang Yuer used a handful of star anise that had been dried at home and put it into the soup, although there was no condiment to remove the fishy smell, but there was star anise, which was another taste.

Jiang Ziming held a broken bowl and drank the soup in the bowl, smiling so much that he couldn't see his teeth. "Sister, today's soup is much better than yesterday."

Jiang Amao also raised his head and looked at his sister. His family's conditions are not good, and he is reluctant to spend his meager income as a runner in the town, and every time he spends monthly money, he will cling to his younger brothers and sisters at home to exchange some food for them.

I can't remember when I was able to eat meat at home. Maybe it's when my father and mother are still there! Although the uncles and aunts are all good to them, the second uncle's family is also five or six brothers and sisters, where can they take care of them.

Now drinking the soup in the bowl, he is also full of emotion. Looking at his sister who was busy in the kitchen, he suddenly had a feeling that his sister had finally grown up: "Niuniu, is this soup with the star anise you said?" He asked.

"Yes!" Jiang Yu'er didn't look back, and was still fiddling with the soup spoon in her hand: "Brother, do you feel that the taste is much better?" She asked, turning around.

"Hmmm! It would be a lot better indeed. It's just ...... "It's just that if you know that you can eat this thing, do others really dare to eat it?" For the past two years, he has been running around the town, and he has learned some things.

"Brother, are you worried that others won't want it?" Jiang Yu'er walked over and also brought a broken bowl in her hand, which contained half a bowl of soup.

Jiang Amao didn't feel embarrassed at all to be seen through by his sister, but nodded generously and admitted.

Jiang Yu'er took a sip of the soup in the bowl and smiled: "Brother, you don't have to worry about this." You'll know when I'll go to town with you! ”

Jiang Ziming heard that his brother and sister were going to go to town, and he also shouted to go, and finally Jiang Yu'er thought that if he sold star anise, he would buy him candy to eat.

After the meal, the three brothers and sisters once again put on their small baskets and went to the field with broken hoes.

"Brother, you rest this time, let's turn over this field first, and wait for the snow to freeze the insects in the winter, and then we can plant them next year." Jiang Yu'er looked at the field in front of her that had been burned by herself a few days ago, and said to her brother.

Jiang Amao listened to his sister's words, first frowned and said, "But my brother is in the town all the year round, and he has little time to come back, how can he take care of this?" This has always been something he is worried about, and after the death of their father and mother, several of their brothers and sisters will also help the second uncle's family do something, but they really haven't learned how to plant specific crops.

What's more, there is not much land at home, and when my father and mother were in the past, it was enough to chew. Now that he has been deserted for so many years, he will listen to his second uncle and go to the town to run the hall to earn some chewing.

"Brother, have you forgotten that there is still me at home!" Jiang Yu'er listened to her brother's words, where would she not know what he was thinking. Raised his head and said.

Listening to his sister's words, his brows furrowed even deeper: "You are a female doll, where do you get the strength to work?" He looked at his sister's thin body and said with a frown of disapproval.

Jiang Yu'er knows that this brother is only thirteen years old, but he is indeed a good brother who loves his younger brothers and sisters. When he was at home before, he contracted almost everything.

"Brother, I've grown up." Jiang Yu'er pouted and said. It's really nice to be loved.

Jiang Ziming on the side was not far behind, jumped up and shouted: "There is still me, and there is me!" ”

In the past half a month, I have been able to catch some rabbits and pheasants from the mountains from time to time. It's not delicious, but it's better than having nothing to eat. The little ones are starting to look less malnourished.

Jiang Amao looked at his younger brothers and sisters in front of him, and for a while, he couldn't find anything to refute. When he was stunned, Jiang Yuer had already carried a hoe and walked into the field.

It's just that when this hoe went down, her brows furrowed deeply. It's not that the ground is hard and can't be dug up, but if you dig it like this, you don't know that you won't be able to dig this field until the Year of the Monkey.

Seeing his sister pick up the hoe, revealing a look of deep hatred, Jiang Amao smiled and quipped: "Now you know that the hoe is made of iron, right?" ”

This is a local saying, which means that knowing reality is completely different from imagination, right?

Who knows, Jiang Yu'er listened to his words, not only was she not annoyed, but her face was excited. She remembers that when she was a child, her family raised cattle, and at that time there was no mechanized farming, and it was all ploughed with oxen. Even if the family's field was mechanically ploughed later, the family still kept a plow intact.

"Brother! Do you know whose carpenters are better in our village? Her big eyes flickered, as if she had discovered a new continent.

I remember watching a TV series before, because my family was poor and couldn't afford to buy a cow. The land in the house is pulled by one man in front and plough by one man in the back. Although the land cultivated in this way is not as good as that of oxen, it is still better than the land dug by hand. It's also faster than digging it out by hand.
