Chapter 103 Camping by the Brook

Huo Xunye stepped forward and said, "Here we come."

Taking the prey from Wen Xin's hand, "Let's go back, it's almost time."

Wen Xin replied happily, "Okay, let's go."

When the two of them went back side by side, they found that everyone else was already preparing to cook by the stream.

When Zhao Wanqing saw them coming back, she said, "You two are finally back. Come on, we are ready to bake."

Wen Xin walked forward with a smile, "It seems that everyone has gained a lot."

Zhang Yingying lit the fire and said, "Yes, we are in for a treat today."

Basically everyone has something to gain, and has at least a chicken and a rabbit on hand.

Even Zhang Yingying, Wang Yumei and Li Qian who were collecting firewood caught a chicken.

Several people were performing their duties, those who made fire, those who boiled water, those who killed chickens, and those who plucked their feathers, were very busy.

When thinking about the meat to eat, almost everyone is very motivated.

Put the prepared chicken and rabbit on the branches and roast them, sprinkle with Wenxin's exclusive secret sauce, the aroma is fragrant and the oil is overflowing.

Lin Kai sighed, "I didn't expect to be able to eat so much meat."

Wang Aiguo also said, "Yes, I have been used to it after living in the countryside for so many years. Every day, I eat thick flour pancakes, wild vegetables, and meat. There is so little!"

Zhao Aidang said optimistically, "Hey, if you have it, eat more, if you don't have it, eat less."

He Dong also smiled and said, "We live our own lives and take care of ourselves. Everything else is unnecessary."

Wang Aiguo patted him on the shoulder, not knowing what to say.

He was the second son in He Dong's family. He had an elder brother above him and a younger brother below him. If his father didn't care for his mother, it was his turn to go to the countryside.

They were given no money or food, and were sent away with a big burden.

I have never sent a letter since I went to the countryside. I really don’t think of him as my son anymore.

After so many years, He Dong has become accustomed to it.

Life in the country was much better than life at home. He could eat half full, work was shared, and no one bullied him. He was quite content.

Wang Aiguo also had many children and poor conditions. In order to reduce the burden on his family, he voluntarily went to the countryside.

In the first two years after I went to the countryside, letters were sent to my family from time to time. When my younger siblings got married or had children, no one would remember this eldest brother.

Wang Aiguo himself also stopped thinking and concentrated on eating and drinking for himself, and no longer thought about his family far away.

Zhao Aidang's family is okay. He has a sister who is already married. She will send him some money from time to time to subsidize him, and she also said that she would find an opportunity to help him return to the city.

But this matter is not that easy.

Zhao Aidang was full of yearning from the beginning, then became disappointed and powerless, and now he is desperate.

Lin Kai has not been in the countryside for long, but his mentality has changed, and he knows that his return to the city is far away.

The male educated youths here were all feeling uncomfortable, but the female educated youths didn't think much about it. Their minds were filled with all the delicious food they could eat next.

Zhang Yingying looked at the chicken and asked, "When can we eat it?"

Wen Xin looked at her and said with a smile, "Come on, come on."

Wang Yumei also said, "Yingying, I think your eyes are glued to the chicken."

Li Qian also laughed and said, "Don't say Yingying, I'm almost starved for it."

Zhao Wanqing's hands were ready to move, "I'm ready and can start eating at any time."

Huo Xunye and Lin Dongze were also busy with the meat on their hands. They saw that the heads and brains of several people next to them were drooping.

"What's wrong with you guys? You don't want to eat meat anymore? Hurry up, the meat is almost ready."

"Brother Wang, be careful with the meat on your hands, don't burn it."

There is meat to attract, no one is sad about spring and autumn, and the stomach is still hungry.

One side for men, one side for women.

Wen Xin looked at the roast chicken in her hand and shouted, "Okay, let's eat."

"Yeah, we can finally eat it." Zhang Yingying was the first to agree.

Li Qian also followed closely: "Okay, the rabbit is ready, let's eat it."

When Huo Xunye heard Wen Xin's voice, there was a faint smile on his lips.

Lin Dongze also laughed when he saw Zhao Wanqing's happy face, thinking that her greedy look was particularly cute.

The meat here is also good.

For a while, no one said anything, they were all busy eating meat.

He wolfed down the food and his mouth and hands were all oily.

Thanks to Wenxin's seasoning, the meat is particularly fragrant.

Fortunately, they were by a creek, it was open and windy, and the smell wasn't that strong. Otherwise, it would be a disaster if it attracts large animals.

After eating, everyone's stomach was bulging.

Consciously pick up the trash and wash your hands.

Seeing that there was still some time, they planned to pick up some more firewood and take them down together.

Just do it and don't go far, there are many nearby.

By the time we get down the mountain, everyone has gained a lot.

When meeting villagers, some people asked, "Are you going to chop firewood?"

Wang Aiguo smiled and replied, "Yes, uncle, the weather is getting colder now, so we need to gather more firewood."

As for the remaining prey, of course they were hidden.

If the villagers saw him, he would be in big trouble.

After returning, pile the firewood and put away the prey.

Everyone went back to the house to rest, it was quite a tiring day.

Lin Dongze helped Zhao Wanqing put away his things and said, "Wanqing, I'm leaving first. If you go up the mountain again, remember to call me. Don't go by yourself. It's very dangerous."

Zhao Wanqing smiled and nodded, "I understand, go back quickly. By the way, take this chicken too."

Lin Dongze still wanted to refuse, but Zhao Wanqing said, "You haven't been at home all day, so you have to bring something back."

Lin Dongze nodded in agreement.

I quietly returned home, and as soon as I closed the door and turned around, I saw his mother standing there.

Lin Dongze was startled, "Mom, why didn't you say anything? You scared me."

Mother Lin said, "You are so brave. You were shocked. Stop pretending. What are you doing today?"

Lin Dongze pulled his mother to the kitchen door and whispered, "Mom, what do you think this is?"

Mother Lin's eyes lit up when she saw the pheasant. She quickly pulled people into the kitchen and closed the door, "You went up the mountain today?"

Lin Dongze said, "Yes, mother, I'll give this to you. You can see how to do it."

Mother Lin took it with a smile on her face, "No problem."

Lin Dongze breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mom, I'm going to go back and drink some water first. I'm a little thirsty."

Mother Lin was now thinking about how to cook this chicken, so she waved her hand and asked people to leave quickly.

No near misses.

In the Educated Youth Courtyard, Wen Xin looked at Zhao Wanqing and asked teasingly, "What's going on, you guys are here?"

Zhao Wanqing said sheepishly, "Nothing, I just think he helped me a lot today. He caught the pheasant, so I must give it to him."

Wen Xin said, "That's not what I asked."

Zhao Wanqing pretended that nothing happened and asked calmly, "What else is there?"

Wen Xin stepped forward and tickled her, "What do you think it is? You see very well, Comrade Xiao Zhao."

Zhao Wanqing couldn't bear it and begged for mercy, "Hahahahahaha, stop scratching your heart, I can't stand it anymore, I'll tell you, I'll tell you."
