Chapter 86: Out of the Cave in Search of Food
Facts have proved that Jiang Wancheng's worries are right.
The Orion went and did not return for seven days.
Not only did he not return, but he didn't even hear from him at all!
Although he knew that it was because of the heavy snow in the mountains, the road conditions were difficult, and it was also dangerous to go, but he had not returned for a long time, Jiang Wancheng inevitably thought about it.
If something really happened to him, what if he left these two siblings behind?
Although she has some silver on her, and it is not a problem to support them by handicraft, it is not so easy to provide for Erlang to study.
Moreover, the sudden loss of their brother who depends on each other, can these two little babies accept it in their hearts?
If she is hit by this and her temperament changes drastically, will she be able to withstand it?
Of course, no matter what, she wouldn't leave them behind.
After all, Orion went down the mountain to do something, and she was also in it.
Besides, this little traitor and the little demon concubine are still just children, and they have already developed feelings for getting along with each other these days.
In this life, how could she abandon them?
Jiang Wancheng was thinking crankily all day long, and there was less and less rice in the rice bag, and there was not much flour left in the flour bag.
But fortunately, the ice and snow are melting, and the weather is warming up a lot.
Another three days passed.
The meat that Orion had saved was almost finished.
The firewood that can be used can be burned for up to two days.
The rice boiled the last porridge, and the flour could only make two more cakes.
And Sister Ya'er suddenly launched a high fever at this time.
Jiang Wancheng hugged the confused Sister Ya'er, and Wen Erlang ran forward and backward.
However, the snow outside was almost finished, so I finally dug up two pots of clean snow slag and poured them into the pot.
Set up a fire, and in a short time the water will be hot.
Sister Ya'er used ice cubes to cool down while taking a sip of hot water that had cooled down after boiling.
"Hungry...... I'm hungry...... Sister...... I want to eat dumplings......"
Sister Ya'er spit out water, opened her big teary eyes, looked at Jiang Wancheng and cried.
She is greedy, and in her dreams she dreams are the oil residue cabbage dumplings that Sister Ah made before.
And mustard greens and big meat buns!
Thinking of that taste, Sister Ya'er's saliva flowed from the corners of her eyes.
It's a pity that I can't eat it, and then the more I cry, the more sad I become.
Jiang Wancheng's heart clenched.
She promised Orion that she would take care of his younger siblings.
But now, both of them are hungry, and the younger one is sick.
No, she can't wait for Orion any longer.
If this continues, the two children are hungry and have a big problem, how can she explain to Orion?
Even if something really happened to Orion, then in her own heart, she didn't want them to starve and get sick.
Jiang Wancheng put Sister Ya'er down and let Wen Erlang take care of it.
"I'll go out and look for something to eat. Erlang, don't leave here, you must wait for me or your brother to come back! ”
Wen Erlang looked at her and seemed worried: "You're just a girl, so don't go out and take risks." ”
Jiang Wancheng smiled slightly: "Sister is very happy, you will worry about me like your brother." ”
"But Erlang don't worry, Sister won't do anything that is too dangerous. After all, I'm desperate for my life. ”
"Besides, if something happens to me, you won't have to cry secretly? How's that to be? ”
Knowing that he was amused by her, Wen Erlang was annoyed and angry: "Who is worried about you!?" If you're leaving, why don't you go quickly? It's better to come back early! ”
"If you dare to come back late, I'll throw your newly made cotton clothes off the cliff!"
The fierce little traitor stared at her without blinking, and the worry in his eyes couldn't be hidden.
Jiang Wancheng smiled and said nothing, went to the corner to pick up the axe used by Orion and tried it, and found that it was not easy to put it down.
Then he picked up a scythe, light and sharp, and easy to harvest.
Jiang Wancheng immediately pinned to his waist.
He chose another bundle of rope, and turned it upside down, and tied it around his waist.
Finally pick up the basket and a water bottle filled with hot water.
Walking to the entrance of the cave, Jiang Wancheng looked back at Wen Erlang, "If you are hungry, there is still a little lard and flour, which can be used to make gnocchi soup." You've seen Sister do it, you know, don't you? But be careful with the fire, don't get hurt. ”
Wen Erlang stared at her: "Hello ......"
Jiang Wancheng waved his hand: "Let's go!" ”
The hole was cleared up.
It wasn't until Sister Ya'er on the bed said another sigh that Wen Erlang woke up.
Sister Ya'er opened her red-hot eyes and asked Wen Erhe stupidly: "Second brother...... Will Sister ...... I'm not coming back......"
Wen Erlang pursed his lips and whispered, "No! No, it won't. She and her brother will be back! ”
Sister Ya'er smiled a little, and then fell asleep again.
Wen Erlang looked at his sister's haggard little face, and said in his heart: If she dares to disappear, he will definitely not forgive her in this life!
Jiang Wancheng is trembling and walking on the cliff plank road at the moment.
The snow melted very quickly.
In just three days, there was almost no snow on the ground.
When they first came to this cave, they also walked through this cliff, but they were escorted by Orion at the time, so everything went well.
And today, it's not just her, the road is wet and slippery.
Finally, Jiang Wancheng climbed onto the cliff and came to the big tree where the board car was put on hold.
Jiang Wancheng sat and rested for a while, and then began to try to look around to see if there was anything to eat.
Unfortunately, the neighborhood is full of weeds.
So, Jiang Wancheng had to go farther again.
As I walked, I got farther and farther away from the cliff, and then entered the mountain forest.
It was flooded with snow, and the vegetation on the ground was basically frozen to death.
Jiang Wancheng was very disappointed, and could only hope that there would be a rabbit nest for her to fight.
Looking for it, Jiang Wancheng, who was too attentive, didn't pay attention and tripped over the vines!
The baskets flew out, and the elbows were so hot that they should have broken their skins, and their heads were on the trees.
Jiang Wancheng sat up in frustration, raised his sickle angrily, and cut the vines with a knife.
I wanted to get up and change places, but her gaze suddenly stopped.
Wait a minute.
The vine that just tripped it is so familiar!
Jiang Wancheng was sure that he had seen it in the Zhuangzi of the previous life!
Hurriedly rushed over and squatted down to check, this vine seems to be a kudzu vine!
Yes, it's kudzu vine!
Jiang Wancheng got excited, if it was kudzu vine, it would be great!
The three of them won't starve to death!
Moreover, kudzu root can not only be eaten, but also a traditional Chinese medicine, it has a miraculous effect of reducing fever!
Therefore, Sister Ya'er also has a way to save her!
"Hahaha......"
Sure enough, it was the endless road, Jiang Wancheng laughed excitedly and presumptuously.
Not daring to delay any longer, Jiang Wancheng followed Teng Man to find the root, and then began to dig the soil little by little with a sickle.
Although it was slow, when he saw that it was really kudzu vine below, Jiang Wancheng almost cried.
I've been looking for a few hours.
Finally, it can't be empty-handed!
Thinking that she could let the two little ones have a good and hot meal tonight, her heart suddenly became hot.
After a while, the first piece of kudzu was successfully dug out.
