Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

In the afternoon, Xiaolan and Shengxuan rested at home. Xiaolan reminded the siblings again to pay attention to the combination of work and rest.

The brother and sister listened to the advice and returned home carrying firewood in the afternoon.

The father and daughter got up at 3 a.m., and Zhang prepared meals for them. She watched them eat, then set off with all the necessary items such as dry food and water.

With the experience of going into the mountains with her father last time, the two did not waste much time on the road. They walked quickly and arrived at about the same time as last time.

Some of the dead vines and leaves on the road have fallen to the ground, but most of them are still green.

It didn't take Xiaolan more than half an hour to find a rabbit nest with eight rabbits in it, which made her and Shengxuan's eyes narrowed into a line. Shengxuan also caught two pheasants. In just half a day, the father and daughter got so many living things, and they were both very happy.

When Xiao Lan saw Sheng Xuan was about to go into the mountains, she was startled and quickly shouted, "Dad, where are you going?"

Sheng Xuan turned around and said, "I'll go to the mountains to have a look. I see so many rabbits and pheasants around here. There must be more in the mountains."

Xiao Lan was dumbfounded by Sheng Xuan's words. She had come to this place to find food so that she could return alive, not to die. Last night in the cave, she heard the call of wild boars. There might be tigers, leopards and other ferocious beasts in the mountains. It seemed that her father was overwhelmed by the harvest in the morning.

"Dad, there may be wild boars and other wild animals in the mountains." Xiao Lan said with a wry smile.

"Ah?" Sheng Xuan was dumbfounded. He obviously didn't think so much. He murmured, "Not only are there wild boars, there are probably tigers as well." At this point, he paused and his face looked unhappy.

"Let's just catch them nearby and don't go into the mountains. There are enough rabbits and pheasants here for us to catch." Xiao Lan advised.

"Okay, okay." Sheng Xuan responded repeatedly embarrassedly.

"Dad, let me take care of the rabbit first. Let's eat and then take action in the afternoon, okay?"

"Xiao Lan, you take a rest, I'll do it." Sheng Xuan picked up the knife and rabbit and walked towards the stream.

Xiao Lan quickly followed with the pottery jar.

At noon, the father and daughter ate the stewed rabbit. The wild rabbit in the mountains was tender and plump. Xiao Lan first rinsed the blood with boiling water, then added water and stewed it for more than half an hour. When it was served, she added some salt. The taste was so fresh and rich that people could eat the whole bowl in one bite.

The father and daughter ate most of the steamed bun with rabbit meat and finished the soup. Xiao Lan laughed at herself in her heart for eating too fast. The elegance of modern society has disappeared.

In the afternoon, the father and daughter caught ten rabbits and six pheasants. It was getting dark, and even honest people can be greedy. Even though they had caught so many, Sheng Xuan still had no intention of returning to the cave.

Xiao Lan had no choice but to ask Sheng Xuan again, "Dad, how about we continue tomorrow?"

Sheng Xuan looked at the sky getting darker and nodded, "Okay."

In the evening, Xiao Lan poured more water into the pottery jar and stewed the rabbit meat for the second time. At noon, the two of them finished the soup. Although the soup stewed with water again was not as rich as the first time, it was also delicious. Drinking the boiling hot soup, I felt very comfortable all over.

Xiao Lan looked at Sheng Xuan and saw that he was also satisfied. It seemed that her father felt the same as her. It turned out that satisfaction was so simple. A full meal and a bowl of hot soup could wash away all the hard work of the day.

When she went to sleep at night, she thought she would be worried and unable to sleep like last time. Maybe it was because she had stayed here for a night last time, so she felt more at ease this time, or maybe it was because she was too tired today, so she fell asleep soon.

After waking up the next day, the father and daughter simply ate some steamed buns and then started to get busy. They had caught almost all the rabbits and pheasants yesterday. In the morning, they only caught two pheasants and two rabbits and didn't have any other gains.

Then Sheng Xuan went into the water. Most of the fish in the stream had been caught last time, and the remaining fish swam very fast and were not easy to catch with a fork.

Xiao Lan picked up the fish that Sheng Xuan had thrown onto the shore, picked up two of them, and began to stew them. The fish soup was white and delicious, and a little salt added to it brought out the flavor.

Sheng Xuan smelled the aroma and his stomach growled with hunger, so he went ashore. He had eaten all the steamed bread he brought from home, so this time they each had a fish and enjoyed the meal very much. Finally, Sheng Xuan added more water to the soup pot, boiled it, and was polite to Xiao Lan. Xiao Lan was really too full, so she let her father drink it all. Looking at her father's satisfied face after drinking the fish soup, Xiao Lan couldn't help but smile secretly.

After resting for a while, the two men twisted two straw ropes and strung together the fish on the shore one by one, a total of fifteen fish.

The father and daughter couldn't put too many live animals in their backpacks. In order to bring back all the hares and pheasants they had harvested, Xiaolan twisted a few strong ropes with vines, knocked the pheasants unconscious, strung the feet of each one, and carried one on her back with her father. Shengxuan hung six, and Xiaolan hung four. The two of them carried backpacks full of hares and fish and planned to leave the mountain.

Along the way, the pheasants that were knocked unconscious woke up and kept defecating. The smell made Xiaolan very desperate. Shengxuan was cheerful throughout the whole process. Xiaolan was influenced by his cheerful mood and deliberately ignored the odor on her body. She threw away the idea of ​​pursuing cleanliness in her previous life and followed the local customs. She was now dressed like a farm girl and just wanted her family to eat well and wear warm clothes.

Although she tried her best to ignore the smell of chicken shit on her body, she still couldn't do it like her father did. Her father might only see that the game could make his family full, or that the money from selling the game could be used to buy some scarce things for the family.

In the evening, they left the mountain. Xiaolan didn't want to go back to the village this time, and wanted to go to the town to sell these living things first. Shengxuan also knew that his outfit was too eye-catching, so the two of them went to the town together.

After walking for a long time, Xiao Lan was already a little tired. She was thinking that she had to deliver the game to Tianxianglou this time. Fortunately, she got a message from Manager Xu last time, saying that she could continue to deliver game to his restaurant, so Xiao Lan felt more confident.

"Dad, let's take these game to Tianxianglou. Maybe the owner will like it." This was not the first time Xiaolan came to the town, so she took Shengxuan to the restaurant.

At night, they arrived at Tianxianglou, which was brightly lit and booming. Xiaolan knocked on the side door, and the waiter inside recognized her and smiled as soon as they saw her, "Girl, are you here to deliver game again?"

Xiao Lan smiled and nodded, "Yes, my father and I caught some wild rabbits and pheasants in the mountains, and brought them here just after we got down the mountain. These fish were caught in the morning."

"Wait a minute, I'll go ask our boss." The waiter hurried forward.
