A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 66 Is it your rabbit? Then take it.

Yun Jiao successfully traded a large rabbit for two small rabbits, one black and one white.

The tiny, furry creature that had just opened its eyes was only slightly larger than a mouse.

The other smaller one was a more common gray color. It was too small to eat, so I gave it to Shen Xiuyuan.

"Shall we roast rabbit meat?"

With so many people, the rabbits couldn't be separated, so we just grilled them on the spot and ate them.

"Hehe, I brought salt."

A child took out a small pinch of salt wrapped in newspaper.

The reason I prepared this was that I wanted to go up the mountain to catch something to roast and eat.

Yun Jiao also contributed a rabbit, and the remaining four were quickly tied by the feet and thrown into the basket.

And that snake.

Children in rural areas mature early; by the age of ten, they can already help with cooking at home. Some girls are even shorter than the stove and have to stand on stools to cook.

They divided the work: they went to the stream to kill the rabbit, then went to find some wild onions and picked some green peppers from the wild pepper trees.

Some people even went to their own cornfields and picked a few ears of corn on the spot.

Some people also dug up a few sweet potatoes.

The land on this mountain mostly belongs to the same village. They all know their own land, so they just pick whatever they can eat.

There were also people who came to harvest chili peppers.

"Shen Xiuyuan, I...I found a beehive!"

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately: "We were just worried that we didn't bring all the seasonings! Where can we find them?"

Yun Jiao's big eyes shone brightly. A honeycomb—that must contain sweet honey.

"I didn't dare get too close to the crevice in the rocks over there."

"Let's go and have a look."

A few people stayed behind to keep watch, while the rest went to find the bees.

Yun Jiao went along too.

Shen Xiuyuan was worried.

"Jiaojiao, can you please not go? Bee stings really hurt, and they'll swell up."

Yun Jiao looked at him expectantly: "But I want to go."

Merfolk, who roam the ocean with dominance, are not afraid of mere bees.

With her looking at you like that, who could bear to refuse?

"Okay, you'll just follow behind me from now on."

Led by the little boy who had discovered the bees, they indeed found a beehive, one that was still full of honey.

But I didn’t dare get close, as countless bees were going in and out of the cracks in the rocks.

“I remember my grandfather using smoke to drive away bees.”

"Then let's get started."

Smoking is easy; there's plenty of hay here.

They grabbed a handful of things, tied them together, and lit them.

Those who were bold enough raised their arms and brought them closer.

Yun Xiaowu and Yun Xiaoqi also went; those two aren't exactly well-behaved either.

Not long after, Yun Jiao heard screams.

It belongs to her fifth brother.

Yun Jiao got up and ran over, but the smoke was so thick that it made her close her eyes.

Suddenly she felt something sting her hand; it hurt a little, but she could bear it!

"They finally got away, but I got stung twice on the face."

"Cough cough cough... I got stung on my eyelid, and it feels like it's swollen."

"Never mind that for now, break the stone open a bit and get the honey."

"Holy crap, this beehive is huge."

Yun Jiao: "Wow."

Her voice was so easily recognizable that Yun Xiaowu and the others, who were diligently prying at the stones, turned their heads.

"Jiaojiao, what brings you here?!"

Yun Jiao squatted at the entrance of the beehive, looking at this and that.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

She couldn't help but laugh, and her stomach started to hurt.

"My brother has become a big pig's head."

Yun Xiaowu hissed. He already felt his face was swollen, but now his younger sister's laughter made it hurt even more.

"Hurry up, hurry up, don't wait until all the bees that ran away come back."

It will be even worse then.

hurry up.

After prying open the rocks at the cave entrance, they simply broke off a large piece of bee comb by hand.

Yun Jiao was given a piece. Buzzing...

"Run! They're coming back!"

Everyone panicked and ran away.

With a large piece of honeycomb in one hand and Yun Jiao in the other, Shen Xiuyuan ran to the front.

They only breathed a sigh of relief after they had completely shaken off the bees.

Turning around and seeing the miserable state of his friends, he burst into laughter.

It really hurt, but that didn't stop them from laughing at each other.

"Jiaojiao, were you stung?"

Yun Jiao raised her little hand.

"I got stung."

There was a red spot on her hand, but it wasn't swollen.

"Does it hurt? I told you to wait here, why did you follow me?"

Yun Jiao: "I heard my brother call me."

Yun Xiaowu and the others were immediately moved; it turned out that he was worried about them.

They all seemed to have forgotten that Yun Jiao had laughed out loud the first time she saw them.

"Let's go back."

The kid, who had said he had gained a lot, walked back with his head held high.

Halfway there, they saw their friends, who had stayed behind, running towards them, crying loudly with bruises and swelling on their faces.

"what happened?"

"Waaah... Liu Tian and his gang from Dagouwan stole our rabbit meat and beat us up."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiuyuan and the others' expressions immediately changed.

Yun Jiao was even more anxious: "Where's my rabbit? Where's my little rabbit? Where's my snake?"

"They've all been stolen."

Yun Jiao stomped her feet several times.

"Be bold!"

They dared to steal her things.

Shen Xiuyuan quickly asked, "Which way did they run?"

They pointed in a direction: "Over there."

Everyone quickly chased after them in that direction.

Meanwhile, the group of people who had stolen the goods became exceptionally arrogant.

"A bunch of good-for-nothings dare to compete with us, hahaha, my dad will definitely praise us if we take the meat back. I didn't expect them to be so lucky to find so many rabbits."

"And there's such a big snake too, now it's all ours."

"Brother, these two rabbits are so cute, I want to keep them."

Liu Tian's younger sister, Liu Chunfeng, happily held two rabbits.

"Stop right there, you scoundrels!"

The angry voices of Shen Xiuyuan and his group came from behind.

"Give us back our rabbit and snake!"

When these people saw that they were being caught, they were not afraid at all. Instead, they made faces at them and made a series of provocative gestures.

"What do you mean 'your rabbits'? Do they have your names written on them? If you're so capable, call out to these rabbits and snakes and see if they respond. They're wild in the mountains; whoever has the ability can claim them as their own."

"You bastard, you son of a bitch, stop right there!"

Before Shen Xiuyuan and the others could attack, Yun Jiao, having clearly seen who had her prey, shoved the beehive in her hand into Ninth Brother's hand, and then without hesitation, grabbed a fallen wooden stake, raised it above her head, and smashed it down on the person holding the snake.

"Put down my snake! My rabbit!!!"

It slammed down and stung, followed by two screams.

Another person nearby was also hit.

But it doesn't matter, they're their accomplices too.

Everyone was stunned by what they saw.

That huge wooden stake was too heavy for even the oldest of them to lift, yet they managed to smash it so far.

After smashing Yun Jiao, he ran over and kicked her hard with his short legs.

"Brother! Why are you letting go of my brother!"

She pulled the snake back and glared angrily at Liu Chunfeng, who was holding her rabbit.

She even came up to me herself!

Despite having beautiful, clear eyes, Liu Chunfeng was so frightened that she took two steps back.

Yun Jiao lowered her head slightly and rushed over, using herself as a weapon to smash someone's head.

"what!!!"

Yun Jiao punched her in the face with her small fist, but she said fiercely, "Is it your rabbit? Then you can take it!"
