Chapter 5 It all starts with a full meal

As soon as he came to the big pine tree, Chen Xuan's eyes couldn't help but light up, because at this moment, under the big pine tree, where the small grass was, there was a black shadow constantly fluttering at this moment.

Chen Xuan did not hesitate at all and quickly stepped forward.

When his figure approached, the black shadow seemed to be more and more panicked, and the fluttering movements became more and more urgent, and in this kind of urgency, Chen Xuan finally saw the whole picture of the black shadow clearly.

It was a pheasant.

It's just that at this moment, the right half of the pheasant's wing is almost broken, and the red blood is even more soaked in its feathers.

Chen Xuan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly pounced.

The pheasant struggled hard, wanting to take off, but he couldn't fly at all, and Chen Xuan pounced and knocked it down directly.

In the dead grip of both hands, this pheasant did not escape after all.

The straw rope that had been prepared was tied up to the pheasant, and Chen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Carrying the pheasant, he had the heart to look at this pheasant at this moment.

And this look suddenly made his expression happy.

In the previous life, the average weight of male pheasants could reach about three catties, and the average weight of female pheasants could reach eight taels to one catty.

Coupled with the fish and meat left over from yesterday, it can definitely meet the rations of their mother and son today.

Chen Xuan thought for a while, looked around, and then directly picked up a stone and smashed it at the head of the pheasant.

"Bump!"

A dull voice arose, and the pheasant that was originally struggling stopped moving directly under this blow, and his head was directly smashed.

And it wasn't until the pheasant didn't move at all that Chen Xuan carefully put it into the back basket, and then covered it with grass.

Although it was just a pheasant, the villagers seemed to be good in his memory, but under this catastrophe, he had to guard against it.

As a traverser, he is not really just a teenager.

After carefully inspecting the back basket, Chen Xuan returned to the village with the back basket on his back.

At this moment, every family in the village has gotten up and started to do farm work.

Although they have suffered a catastrophe, they do not need to work in the countryside, but need to do more.

Only in this way can they barely survive in this troubled world.

Along the road, Chen Xuan saw all the figures with yellow faces and thin muscles.

There was hardly any sparkle in the eyes.

"Ergou, what are you?"

"Second uncle, the straw mat at home is already wet, and my mother asked me to pick some hay."

"Oh oh oh!"

"Two dogs!"

"Hello third uncle!"

Along the way, Chen Xuan greeted the villagers one by one according to his memory.

It wasn't until half an hour later that he returned home.

Home.

The mother hadn't come back yet, and when his younger brother Xiaoshi saw Chen Xuan coming back, his face couldn't help but be happy.

"Guoguo, hug, hug!"

The little stone opened cheerfully.

Chen Xuan smiled and picked up the small stone.

However, the small body picked up a child, which made him stumble a little, and he couldn't help but quickly find a wooden chair and sit down.

"This body!"

Chen Xuan sighed, looking a little helpless.

This body has been hungry for too long, and this is not something that can be replenished by eating a meal of fish.

In my mind, I couldn't help but think of my golden finger again, and thought of yesterday's attempt.

But soon those thoughts were dismissed by him.

At present, the most important thing for him is to eat well, only when he has a full meal, his body will be well recuperated, and only when his body is well recuperated will he be qualified to consider other things.

Otherwise, even if he has a golden finger, it will be extremely difficult to do something.

"Guoguo, the stone is hungry!"

Chen Xuan was pondering, the little stone licked the stone, and looked at Chen Xuan with blank eyes.

Although he ate something in the morning, in order to save some food, he actually drank some fish soup in the morning, don't be a small stone, even Chen Xuan felt his stomach rumbling at the moment.

"Stone is good, brother will help you make food."

Chen Xuan smiled and touched the head of the little stone, and the figure got up and walked to his back basket.

"Guoguo, really?"

Xiao Shi's eyes were shining and he looked at Chen Xuan.

"Really!"

"Little Stone, wait a minute."

Chen Xuan smiled and spoke, picked up the basket and walked to the stove house.

"Okay, Guoguo, the stone is the most well-behaved!"

Little Stone bit his finger and nodded earnestly.

The figure really sat obediently on the small stool and waited.

And Chen Xuan walked into the stove house with a basket.

At a glance, I saw that there was still more than half of the fish left that was dried by his mother.

After groaning slightly, Chen Xuan still took down the fish and hung the pheasant from the back basket.

The summer is extremely hot, and after a night of drying, there is already a slight smell on the fish.

However, for such a family background, Chen Xuan is not picky.

After washing the fish with clean water, Chen Xuan started cooking with difficulty.

There are four walls of the house, what braised fish, steamed fish basically don't have to think about it, there is only one way, that is, put it in a clay pot and stew it.

Oil is completely absent.

You can only put a small piece of vinegar cloth in it to add some flavor when the meat is cooked, and you have to take it out quickly, otherwise if all the salt on the salt cloth is cooked, you will not eat it next time.

Such a messy stew of food is also food without oil and water, and in the previous life, I am afraid that even beggars would not bother to smell it.

But in this era, in this small river village, there are more than 90% of the families.

"Goo-dong!"

A faint fragrance permeated the tip of his nose, and Chen Xuan's Adam's apple couldn't help but roll.

even subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

There was a throbbing pain in my stomach.

Holding back the feeling of hunger, Chen Xuan hurriedly filled a small bowl and brought it to the small stones waiting outside.

"Fish!"

"It's a fish!"

"Stone likes fish the most!"

When the small bowl was brought over, Xiao Shi's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he clapped his hands and spoke.

"Eat slowly, don't get burned!"

Chen Xuan smiled and spoke, rubbing his younger brother's little head before preparing to continue returning to the stove house.

But at this moment, there was movement outside.

"My mother is back!"

"Guoguo!"

Xiao Shi was just about to eat it, but his little head couldn't help shrinking, his eyes looked at Chen Xuan, and he spoke quietly.

"It's okay, you can eat the stone first!"

Chen Xuan smiled and soothed, and the figure walked out.

And the outside world.

Zhang Chunhua gently put down the bamboo basket.

In the bamboo basket, there were only one or two small pieces of bark, and there were no wild vegetables.

Obviously, digging wild vegetables in the early morning did not yield any results.

"Hey!"

Zhang Chunhua couldn't help but sigh, her haggard face was full of exhaustion.

The figure tidied up, picked up the two small pieces of bark, and walked towards the room.

Just entered the house, Zhang Chunhua's haggard face couldn't help but change.
