Chapter 10: Hunting
In Russia, the land can be planted as long as you are busy. Sergei and Yao Jingjing chose a piece of land, but it was only a few acres, and they couldn't afford to plant it if it was too big, after all, Yao Jingjing had never done farm work, and Sergei had only done it when he was a child, and the two of them also tried to explore. The two of them wanted to plant potatoes and peppers, but it was June, so they could sow corn, cabbage, and soybeans.
The first time she farmed, Yao Jingjing didn't understand it at all, and the whole process was Sergei turning over the ground with a hoe to loosen the soil. Fortunately, there were only a few acres of land, and it didn't take long to sow seeds.
On this morning, Sergei carried a shotgun and said that he was going out hunting, Yao Jingjing was not at ease, and he must follow. In desperation, Sergei had no choice but to lead his little wife towards the woods in the mountains.
On the way, Yao Jingjing held Sergei's hand tightly and looked around in panic.
"Sergey, are there any beasts in this forest?"
"There are a lot, there are wolves, foxes, rabbits, deer."
"Wolves?" Yao Jingjing's heart suddenly lifted.
"Don't be afraid, I carry a shotgun, I am very accurate in marksmanship, and I hunt a lot."
"Oh." Hearing Sergei's affirmative words, Yao Jingjing's frightened heart eased slightly.
The two of them shuttled through the dense woods, and at this time, a tree hole in a tree came into their eyes.
"Jingjing, did you see that tree hole?"
"See."
"There should be honey in there."
Yao Jingjing's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "Honey?" Let's pick some honey. ”
"Not right now. We didn't wear protective tools, and we were stung all over the face. ”
"That's right."
"There is a lot of wild honey on this mountain, even if it is very high in the trees, it is very difficult to climb up." Like Sergei, who has old arms and legs, it really costs him to climb a tree, even if he wants to, Yao Jingjing can't agree.
Yao Jingjing couldn't help frowning, how could she climb to the height of the tree to pick honey? This does require some thought.
At this time, a soft and glutinous little white rabbit came into Sergei's eyes, and he saw the little rabbit jumping to the ground, not realizing that the danger was in front of him.
Sergei hurriedly raised his shotgun and aimed at the little rabbit, only to hear a thud, and the shotgun shot steadily and fiercely at the white rabbit. The white rabbit fell to the ground and whimpered for his life.
Yao Jingjing subconsciously covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes were wide open, looking at the white rabbit that was shot, her eyes were full of distress and faint fear.
Sergei trotted over, grabbed the rabbit with his big hand, turned to look at Yao Jingjing, and shouted, "Jingjing, look, my marksmanship is okay." ”
"Uh, oh." Yao Jingjing nodded awkwardly.
"Jingjing, what's wrong with you? Scared? Sergei walked over and found Yao Jingjing's face pale.
Yao Jingjing glanced at the rabbit in Sergei's hand, and said distressedly: "Are we a little cruel?" ”
I thought it was going on! It turned out to be a heart attack of the Virgin! Sergei grabbed Yao Jingjing's shoulders and comforted: "Jingjing, you have to adapt to this kind of life." In the future, we will hunt and farm often. Killing is inevitable. ”
"I, I know, it's just that I can't accept it for a while."
"It's okay, take your time, there's still a shotgun at home, you can bring it next time you come out, and I'll teach you to hunt."
"Okay."
"We live in the countryside, and there is a forest next to it, and every now and then there will be wild beasts rushing into the village and shooting guns, which is very important."
