She took out a knife from the space clinic and asked Xie Lin to cut two branches for them to use to spear fish.

Several little kids were extremely envious and jealous when they saw her standing in the water with her trouser legs rolled up.

"Aunt, can we go over there?"

Xie Wenjin asked.

Xia Chan smiled and shook his head: "No, the water here is very deep, the water will wash you away if you come."

She was standing in the gentle part of the river. The water was not too deep, but that was relative to her.

For these kids, it was almost calf-deep, which was deep enough.

Another very important point is that the water in the mountains is cool.

She is in good health and can step into the cold water, but the children can't.

Xie Lin had also cut some branches to catch fish.

Seeing Xia Chan standing in the water with her white legs exposed, Xie Lin spinelessly thought of some things he shouldn't have thought of.

He coughed and looked away.

"You guys go play nearby, don't come near the water."

After talking about the children, he said to Xia Chan again: "Chanchan, do you want to come up? The water is cold, come out to the shore so I can catch some fish?"

"No, just give me the branch."

Xia Chan reached out and asked for a branch that Xie Lin had cut. She stood in the water, concentrating and holding her breath, waiting for the big fish to swim around her feet.

"Whoosh."

There was a sound of breaking water, and Xia Chan lifted the branch in his hand.

The two fish were pierced by her and stuck together on the branch.

She turned around with a slight smile on her lips. Xie Wenbo and others on the shore had already jumped up and clapped their hands.

"Auntie is amazing."

"Aunt is the best."

The brothers Xie Wenbo and Xie Wenjin are undoubtedly Xia Chan's die-hard fans.

They jumped and clapped, even happier than if they had caught it themselves.

Xia Chan took the fish down and threw it onto the shore.

"Sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, please take care of this."

"Hey, no problem."

"Leave it to us."

Mrs. Xie Dasao and Mrs. Xie Ersao might not be as good as Xia Chan in catching fish, but they are very skilled in preparing food.

It’s not that they have been busy in the kitchen since they were young, but they have developed this skill over the past two months.

Today is different from the past. The two sisters-in-law are no longer the wives of the young generals in the Duke's Mansion. They are now the wives of ordinary farmers.

They are the ones who have to take care of the children and the elderly.

There were no servants in the house, so naturally they had to do everything themselves.

Fortunately, no one felt tired.

Mrs. Xie Da and Mrs. Xie Er took the dagger given by Xia Chan, patted the fish's head, and then went to the shallow water nearby to clean it.

Xie Yunying and Xie Yunyao were not idle either. They brought their two nieces with them to pick up some dry firewood and put it on the flat and open ground.

"I'll come over and light the fire in a minute."

Thank you, Second Sister-in-law.

Xie Su smiled and said, "It's okay, you guys are busy, I'll make a fire."

"mother…"

Mrs. Xie stood up quickly: "I can do it."

Mrs. Xie was also a little nervous.

Mainly, they were a little nervous about asking the mother-in-law to do the work.

Old Madam Xie sat on the side, and Magu massaged her legs. Seeing the two granddaughters-in-law were about to stand up, she also said, "It's okay, let your mother come."

Then she asked Magu to help her up: "Is there anything I can do? I will help too."

The old lady also offered to help.

Now not only the eldest and second sister-in-law, but even Xie Su was nervous.

"Mom, you sit down and rest, I'll help you, you're not needed."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm no longer an old lady living a life of luxury in the general's mansion."

The old lady waved her hands, very disapproving.

"When your grandfather was young, he was a hunter. When I first married him, he worked hard for me."

The Xie family was able to rise from ordinary hunters to become founding heroes, all thanks to the late Mr. Xie, who built their family up bit by bit.

I didn't expect that the hard-earned merits would be lost by them after just a few decades...

The old lady recalled the past and couldn't help but sigh.

Fortunately, the Xie family had a noble person, Xiao Chan, who appeared in time and saved the Xie family from being wiped out.

Although the Xie family is now in decline, they still have some hope.

As long as there is hope, the old lady will have unlimited energy.

Like young people, she can do what she can to make her family better.

Not to mention restoring the General's Mansion to its former prosperity, at least we have to protect the little ones and let them grow up healthily.

"Grandma, please stop working."

The summer cicada came out of the river, holding a few fat fish in its hands.

She smiled and said, "We can take care of this. You, Magu and mother just sit aside and wait for a while."

It's just a lunch, grilled fish, and the young ones can come.

Others said that the old lady might still insist for a while, but when Xia Chan spoke, the old lady was very obedient.

"I just want to move. My old arms and legs are going to become useless if I don't move after being served by you all day."

"Don't worry, we are going to build the house next, and you will be busy then."

The summer cicadas packed up their food very quickly.

She asked Xie Yunying and Xie Yunyao to stand aside, lit a fire, took out the iron skewer that was used for grilling in the space, put the fish on it, and grilled it on the fire.

Soon, a fragrance wafted out.

Xia Chan likes to eat, so when it comes to barbecue, she is naturally better than her elder and younger sisters-in-law.

The fish was not fully cooked yet, but brothers Xie Wenbo and Xie Wenjin came over to check several times.

Sisters Xie Meixian and Xie Congyue were also swallowing their saliva, staring at the fragrant fish on the shelf.

Even the others who were talking turned their attention here.

His eyes were glued to the fish that kept turning over and over.

Even Xie Lin came over.

"Chanchan, is there anything I can help you with?"

He sat down directly next to Xia Chan.

Xia Chan smiled and placed the grilled fish on the plate she took out from the space.

"Go get some chopsticks and we'll eat together..."

Before he finished saying the word "fish", he heard a roar coming from deep in the woods.

Xie Lin stood up immediately.

Xia Chan also stood up holding the iron rod.

Mrs. Xie and the others immediately protected the child, and the young and old gathered together.

At this moment, a huge golden tiger jumped out of the woods.

The aroma of the fish grilled by Xia Chan attracted the tigers in this primeval forest.

The tiger pounced very quickly, its target was Xia Chan and Xie Lin.

What originally attracted it was the grilled fish in Xia Chan's hand, but now that it came out, its target became Xia Chan and Xie Lin who were standing next to the grilled fish.

"Chanchan, be careful..."

Xie Lin grasped Xia Chan's wrist with one hand, lifted his green gown with the other, took a half step back, and kicked the tiger that pounced on him.
