The Reborn Wife is Farming

Liu Erqian decided to find his two sons and two nephews, and said: "Clean up, and follow your niece into the mountains tomorrow. The mountains are full of rabbits. Now there is not much work left at home. Your daughter-in-law is enough."

A light flashed in Liu Ting's eyes, and he secretly became excited, "Second uncle, my father agreed?"

Liu Erqian glared at him, "I've told you all here, what do you think?" Although the elder brother didn't agree, he just didn't stop him.

"If you feel sorry, you can pack up some agricultural products and send them over later. Shitou's daughter-in-law doesn't know how to grow land and vegetables, so you can eat vegetables at home sparingly."

These things are not lacking in the farmhouse, and all four of them agreed.

Liu Ting told his wife the good news when he was sleeping at night, saying: "The children are growing up, if they can eat more meat, they will definitely be stronger and stand more firmly."

There are many children in rural areas who live young, even if the eldest son Liu Lang is eleven years old, it is still not safe, let alone two younger children?

Mrs. Liu Zhao was also very happy, "Go into the mountains. I will work at home. When you enter the mountains, you should listen to Ah Ling more. Don't go far. If something goes wrong, run outside. You are the pillar of the family. It is good to have those things." , you can live well without us, so don't be greedy."

There were similar instructions in the other two houses. Only Liu Erqian's youngest son, Liu Xuan, was unmarried and went to sleep on the bed as soon as he got home. The next day, the rooster crowed for the second time and he was full of energy. get up.

Compared with the various goals of his cousins ​​and elder brothers, his goals are much simpler, hunting rabbits and eating meat.

The four brothers packed up and stood at the door of Mu's house early in the morning.

When Mu Shi came out and saw them stunned for a moment, Mu Yangling said, "Father, you go into the mountain by yourself today, and I will take my uncles in."

Mu Shi hesitated for a moment and then nodded. Anyway, he usually does not go the same way as his daughter, he always goes to a deeper place.

"Don't take your uncles in too deep, just stay in the jujube tree group."

Mu Yangling responded, and after watching Mu Shi enter the mountain, he said to the four uncles: "Let's go, let's enter the mountain."

They mainly set up traps today, and they will collect them the next day. Mu Yangling is very familiar with this area.

Two quarters of an hour into the mountain forest, there is a jujube tree. Soon after the jujubes can be harvested, the young and strong in the village will come here to pick them, but usually there are few people here, so there is a thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground. There are dates that wither and fall to the ground.

Liu Ting reached out and picked one from the tree, stuffed it in his mouth, and said, "That's right, it will be ready in about twenty days."

The wild jujubes in the mountains are harvested later than those grown outside.

Mu Yangling looked around and said, "Cousin, rabbits like to make nests around here, but there are also animals that like to eat wild dates to visit, so don't go far, and if something happens, just shout." Yang Ling entered the mountain with a big bow specially brought to prevent accidents.

The four uncles agreed.

Mu Yangling just inspected it, and marked it when he saw the traces of rabbits frequenting, and made a trap on it after a while.

At this time, the sky had just dawned, and the morning light fell on the ground through the leaves, softening Mu Yangling's expression.

Liu Ting spat twice, picked up the hoe, walked over, and asked, "Ah Ling, where do we start?"

"Dig this first, Uncle Zhuang. You and Uncle Yuan will arrange the knots where I made the marks as my father taught you before. Uncle Xuan, let's go. I will take you to find the rabbit nest. We'll smoke rabbits in a while."

Liu Xuan's eyes were shining brightly.

Mu Yangling taught him how to look at the traces and judge the size and species of the animals that left the traces, but Liu Xuan couldn't see the relationship between this patch of grass and that patch of grass after a while, and why a fox had passed by that patch of grass.

Mu Yangling looked at him strangely, "Uncle Xuan, don't you smell a foul smell?"

"..." Liu Xuan said: "No, I only smell the fresh scent of wild dates."

"...Then do you see the difference in this bush?" Mu Yangling asked, pointing to a knee-high grass not far away.

Liu Xuan took a closer look and said, "It seems to have been bent."

"What about the clump next to it?" Mu Yangling pointed to the upper part of the clump of grass, which was also slightly bent, and you couldn't see it unless you looked carefully.

"It was bent too."

Mu Yangling nodded, "Do you know how you got bent?"

Liu Xuan shook his head.

Mu Yangling pointed to the first cluster and said, "It was blown by the wind."

Liu Xuan: "..."

"Look, there is a large open space over there. Standing here, you can get the wind. That is to say, this position is facing the air outlet, and the grass is bent downwards as a whole, and the curvature is very smooth. It doesn't look like Animals overwhelm."

Liu Xuan nodded excitedly, "I understand."

"And what about the clump up there?"

Liu Xuan hesitated: "It was also blown by the wind?"

"No, it was bent by a wild boar."

"..." Liu Xuan looked again and again, and asked, "How do you know?"

"There is a shallow pig's hoof print on the ground, and there are two pig droppings behind the tree."

Liu Xuan lay on the ground and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see the shallow pig's hoof print, but he saw the pig's dung behind the tree. Although he didn't pay attention, he wouldn't notice it, because the grass under the tree was also very thick. Can't find it at all.

"And the grass suddenly bent down from the top two-thirds, so it must have been bent by something..."

Liu Xuan looked back and forth between the two patches of grass, but he still couldn't see the difference in their curvature. He turned his eyes to look at his niece, and said, "Ah Ling, I'd better stop learning, you just tell me The rabbit's nest is there, I'll smoke it."

"...Well, the rabbit's nest is in the grass not far from the tree you saw just now. Didn't you see the hole when you opened it just now?" Mu Yangling asked him to look at the two pieces of grass. In order to continue teaching him how to identify rabbit holes, but it is obvious that the homework she prepared will not be used.

Liu Xuan touched his nose, ran to look at the hole, and asked, "It is said that the rabbit hole has many exits. Where is the other exit?"

"I'll look for it." Mu Yangling turned around for a while, found another hole, and said to Liu Xuan, "Come here and guard it, put a sack around the hole, and I'll make a fire to smoke the rabbit."

There are many trees in the forest, and even a single spark could cause a fire, so Mu Yangling was very careful every time he lit a fire. It was the first time she brought Liu Xuan into the mountains, and she was really worried about entrusting him with such an important matter.

Mu Yangling taught him some skills, so he pulled a few handfuls of green grass and a handful of dry grass and put them at the entrance of the cave, lightly cut the flint and lit them, and waited for the fire to smoke the grass. The big leaves fanned vigorously towards the entrance of the hole.

Most of the smoke that was born went into the hole, and after a while, the smoke floated out from another hole, and Mu Yangling knew that it was almost done. She was afraid that there was still a hole that hadn't been found, so she looked around and planned to wait until If there is smoke coming out of other places, run over and block it.

The two were lucky. The first rabbit hole they found had only two exits. After waiting for a while, there was an exclamation from Liu Xuan, and snow-white rabbits quickly escaped from the hole and rushed directly into the hole. in his sack.

When Liu Xuan saw that there were no more rabbits coming out, he quickly pressed the sack tightly, and shouted happily: "Ah Ling, come and take a look, the snow-white and snow-white rabbit is so beautiful."

Mu Yangling ran over to see that there was a big snow-white rabbit, and four little rabbits were huddled under the sack quietly and anxiously. Mu Yangling said happily: "Biao Xuan, you are so lucky. This kind of snow-white rabbit comes from the county town. Those young masters and ladies like it the most, let’s hurry down the mountain later and let my father take it to the county town, it will definitely sell for a good price.”

Liu Xuan raised his smiling face, "Where is my luck, obviously Ah Ling is blessed.
