Chapter 6 Hunting is a skilled job
Hunting also depends on experience, He Xiaoting is inexperienced, she can't find prey, and can only bump around like a headless fly.
went out in the name of digging wild vegetables, but He Erya, who followed closely behind her sister, pouted and complained, "I thought it was so powerful." ”
He Xiaoting rolled her eyes back, "What are you doing with me, scaring the prey away." ”
Even if you don't know the bottom in your heart, you can't admit defeat on your lips.
He Erya, the pot of "......" is a little heavy.
suppressed the arrogance of the second sister, He Xiaoting was in a happy mood, and she walked with the wind, but she found that there was movement in the grass that was taller than her not far ahead, and hurriedly signaled the second sister to stop.
"It won't be a snake again," He Erya muttered quietly, obediently stopping in place.
He Xiaoting was also a little worried, but thinking that snake meat was also meat, she walked over lightly, carefully picked up the corner of the grass, and saw a gray-white fat rabbit jumping up and hitting her directly.
The defenseless He Xiaoting was knocked to the ground and fell to the ground on all fours.
"Flutter-"
He Erya laughed, without any sisterhood.
After laughing, he strode over, picked up the rabbit that had fallen out due to the rebound force, and exclaimed, "Yes, I really caught a stupid rabbit." ”
A live rabbit is worth more than a dead one, and it can be sold for thirty or forty dollars.
He Xiaoting gritted her teeth and got up, rubbed the place where she was hurt by the fall, and said depressedly, "I fell down, but it was about the same price as a snake gall, and I died." ”
"It's not a loss, the black face is only two pennies and a pound," He Erya smiled, hugging the rabbit tightly and not letting go, "My mother must be very happy to know." ”
He Xiaoting wanted to eat Tutu, but looking at the performance of the cheap second sister, she was afraid that she would not be able to eat it, so she could only drag forward with heavy steps.
You have to work hard to eat meat.
When He Daya dug up a large basket of wild vegetables to find her sister, He Erya held two rabbits and three pheasants in her hands, and there were more than a dozen wild eggs in the basket.
Mushrooms don't have to think about it, it hasn't rained for the past few days, where can they grow.
"The harvest is good," He Daya praised very sincerely, "Sanya is really amazing." ”
He Erya didn't follow, "Eldest sister, why do you only praise my little sister and not me, am I not amazing?"
"Ah, didn't you just help take the prey?" He Daya looked confused, "It's not very heavy, I can handle it if I change it." ”
He Erya's whole person was not good, "Who said that Xiaomei caught it, I caught it." ”
Taking all the credit on yourself can be said to be very shameless.
"Be good, don't make trouble," He Daya reached out and touched the second sister's head, "If you can catch it, where will the family not be able to eat meat for a few months." ”
Sanya has a lot of strength, and she has practiced specially in the past few months, so it is not surprising that she catches prey.
However, there were too many prey, and it was too eye-catching to take them home directly, so He Daya decided to hide them in the back basket and cover them with a layer of wild vegetables.
"The wild vegetables in the three-back basket are also eye-catching," He Erya muttered, "and it's not a big deal to bring it back like this." ”
He Xiaoting nodded approvingly, "The rabbit I killed with my ability is also useful for others to be red." ”
"That's not what I said," He Daya patiently explained, "There are only about 100 families in Hejia Village, most of them are related to their relatives, and they eat something delicious, and it will be spread all over Hejia Village without a single cup of tea." ”
There were more people in the village who couldn't afford to eat meat, and she didn't want to be angry.
Secretly hid in a basket and took it home, and outsiders couldn't see it, so let my father and eldest brother find a way to sell it in the town and exchange it for some food to go home.
There are many people in the family and little land, and after paying taxes and grain, the rest is not enough to eat.
He Xiaoting also thought of the empty grain tank at home, gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, "If you want to sell, go early, eldest sister, you go home first, and let your father bring your eldest brother over." ”
The weather is hot, and the prey can't be put at home, so sell it early and worry about it.
In addition, the mountain is outside the village, and there are small roads on the periphery, so you can go directly around the village to the town to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by prey.
He Daya thought for a while, "It's okay, then I'll go back first, you guys pay attention to safety." ”
"Uh-huh," He Xiaoting nodded like pounding garlic, "It's okay, I'm amazing." ”
"I know you're very powerful," He Daya couldn't agree more, but turned her head to explain to He Erya, "Be optimistic about Sanya, don't go in further." ”
There are still hunters involved in this area, with the strength of Sanya, it is no problem to pay more attention, and then it will be really a deep mountain and old forest full of fierce beasts.
He Erya was a little embarrassed, "She has a big idea now, I'm afraid I can't watch it." ”
"I can't even look at a child," He Daya wrinkled her eyebrows and complained, "It's really Bai Chang is so big, what do you want." ”
He Erya was not angry, and asked sincerely, "Why don't we change it?"
"No~" He Daya refused, and suddenly changed her mind when the words came to her lips, "Change it, you go back and report the news." ”
The third sister is too jumpy, and the second sister is also uneasy, the two of them get together, who knows what will happen.
For the sake of safety, it is better to keep them apart.
He Erya instantly made a bitter face when she heard this, "Eldest sister, I'll just say that, don't take it seriously." ”
"I'll take it seriously," He Daya replied with a wooden face.
The eldest sister must have done it on purpose, He Erya thought angrily, but she was helpless.
The words were said by her, no one forced her, and there was no room for remorse, so she could only resign herself to going down the mountain to call her father and brother.
He Xiaoting watched a big show of twin sisters fighting wits and courage for free, and continued to walk around the neighborhood after watching it.
Pheasants and hares are not worth much, if only they could catch wild boars.
In ancient times, it was different, the mountains and rivers were beautiful, there was no pollution, the species were abundant, and the proper capture of fierce beasts could also maintain the ecological balance, so as to avoid the tragedy of insufficient food in the mountains and the fierce beasts going down the mountain to hurt people.
In modern times, there are not necessarily wild animals in the deep mountains and old forests, and even if there are, they cannot be caught at will, and there is an animal protection law.
Shake your head, everything in your previous life is a thing of the past, so it's better not to think too much.
"Sanya, come here," He Daya whispered to her sister, "There seems to be a rabbit over there." ”
He Xiaoting's eyes lit up, "Where is it?"
Looking in the direction pointed out by the eldest sister, I could vaguely see the gray balls dotted in the green grass, listening attentively, and bleating.
"Catch the sheep," He Xiaoting decided, "If you can catch the live ones, raise them, and sell them for money for food when they die." ”
He Daya, "Wild goats have a strong temperament, I'm afraid it's not easy to raise." ”
"It's okay, just keep it in a circle for a while," He Xiaoting said.
Before the sheep could be caught, the sisters agreed to go back and let their father and eldest brother make a simple sheepfold out of wood.
It can be said that it is very frivolous.
Wild goats are social animals with sharp horns and great lethality.
He Xiaoting was worried about the safety of her eldest sister, refused the proposal of her peers, shuttled between the mountains dexterously, and soon approached the herd of wild goats.
The herd of goats is not large, only about twenty of them, old and small, if only they could be caught in one net.
Putting aside the unrealistic thoughts in her mind, He Xiaoting used He's flying stone stunt and began to work.
