Su Danian, who was standing at the back, heard Old Man Su calling him, and hurried to the front and listened to what Old Man Su said.

He nodded and said that he knew how to do the job, and the furs could be exchanged for silver, which would be another source of income.

Thinking of this, the honest man scratched his head and grinned.

"Mom, my sister has found a litter of wild rabbits and is raising them in the backyard. We will have meat to eat in the future."

Su Chi was a small child, and when he thought of the litter of wild rabbits raised in the backyard, he couldn't help but hold Xie's hand and start talking.

Seeing that everyone in the Su family had turned their eyes to him, Su Chi excitedly said to Xie: "I promised my sister that I will do the job of feeding the rabbits from now on. I know where the grass is the tenderest."

After saying this, he couldn't help but look forward to eating the meat soon, his mouth was grinning widely, unable to conceal his good mood at all.

Seeing that the Su family members in the yard were looking at him with puzzled expressions, Su He smiled softly and quickly explained:

"It's just that I was lucky today. I found a rabbit nest and caught seven or eight wild rabbits. I'm raising them in the chicken coop in the backyard."

Rabbits, seven or eight of them. The Su family couldn't help but feel happy when they heard this. You know, the only valuable thing in the Su family now is an old hen that lays eggs in the backyard.

Now we have a litter of wild rabbit cubs. Rabbits reproduce very quickly. We can raise them as domestic animals and then we will have an endless supply of rabbits in the future.

"Okay, let's eat first. I've already prepared dinner. We'll deal with this after dinner."

Su He pointed at the hare on the ground and said to everyone.

At this time, everyone in the Su family in the yard had a smile on their face and kept nodding at Su He.

We should be able to have meat tomorrow. There is a litter of wild rabbits in the backyard. It seems that there is hope for the future. Everyone can't help but feel happy.

When everyone entered the main room and saw the food on the table, they were even more surprised.

This fish soup and water celery were both eaten yesterday, and everyone recognized them. There was also a dish of scrambled eggs, which smelled delicious, but no one knew what wild vegetables it was.

The vegetables in the Su family's vegetable garden had just been planted not long ago. Old Mrs. Su went to check on them today and knew that what they would eat tonight must be the wild vegetables that Su He and her brother picked today.

"This is the pheasant egg I picked up today. It smells so good!"

Su Bai was a tall and thin young man who had worked all day. When he smelled the smell of eggs, he couldn't help but make a sound.

Su He raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "This is wild garlic fried pheasant eggs. I originally wanted to make rabbit meat, but I can't get it. I will make braised rabbit meat for you tomorrow."

Hearing that they could eat meat tomorrow, the Su family couldn't help but laugh happily. Even the usually calm Su Zhiyan's expression changed.

“Can this annoying fungus really be eaten?”

Old Mrs. Su looked at the fish soup that Su He had just scooped for her and saw that there were quite a few of the mushrooms she mentioned. The Su family had never eaten them before, not even when they were the poorest.

Su He was about to explain when Su Chi, who was standing beside him, just drank a big mouthful of fish soup, put down the bowl, patted his chest towards Old Lady Su and Old Man Su, and said with a firm face:

"Grandpa, grandma, this is really delicious. Look, my sister and I have already eaten a bowl of it and we are fine."

Indeed, when the fish soup was just cooked, Su He and Su Chi tasted a bowl each.

Everyone looked in Su He's direction at the same time, and saw Su He nodded affirmatively.

"Really? My little brother and I tasted it when it was cooked. If there was something wrong, it would have happened a long time ago. Look at us now and we are fine."

Everyone looked at Su He and Su Chi. They indeed did not look like they were in trouble. On the contrary, they looked a little better than in the past few days.

Now everyone felt relieved and started drinking the fish soup.

"This fish soup with mushrooms is even better than last night's. It's the best soup I've ever had."

Su Bai gulped down the entire bowl of fish soup, then put the bowl down and let out a satisfied sigh.

Everyone in the Su family nodded in agreement. It was indeed delicious. Not only did it not have a fishy smell, it was also very sweet and fresh.

"And what is this fried pheasant egg? It smells really good, even better than meat."

Although the Su family rarely eats meat now, when the family was doing better in the past few years, they could still have a meat meal from time to time.

But it’s been so long that everyone has almost forgotten what meat tastes like.

But I didn’t expect the fried pheasant eggs today to be so delicious.

"I know, I know. Sister said this is called wild garlic."

Su Chi raised his hand. He had followed Su He all day today and he remembered clearly what Su He had said.

Su He looked at Su Chi, who was eating with bulging cheeks, with a smile on his face, and nodded along with his words.

"When I came back today, I saw quite a few by the creek. If you like them, I'll go dig some more tomorrow."

Wild garlic is delicious when fried with eggs or vegetables, and tastes much better than the wild vegetables that grandma picked before.

The family was very satisfied with the meal. After dinner, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Luo cleaned up the dishes, and Su Chi took Old Mrs. Su to the backyard to see his little rabbit.

Su Danian went to the yard to collect the hares. Su He stood under the eaves and asked Old Man Su, "Grandpa, when are we going to take the skins to the town to sell them?"

This thing is not easy to keep, it needs to be sold quickly. I don’t know how far the town is from Yunli Village. Su He thought that if there is a chance, she would also like to go to the town to see if there is any way to make money.

Old Man Su looked at his eldest son who was busy at work, and when he heard Su He's words, he turned around and waved his hands repeatedly.

"No need to go to town. The Li family in the village next to us makes a living by hunting. They used to collect these skins and then sell them to town. We don't have to go so far."

The next village?

Su He has been here for so long that he has never left Yunli Village, let alone the neighboring village.

I heard that there is no village within dozens of miles of Yunli Village, and no one knows where the village where Li Er is. But from what Old Man Su said, it should be closer than going to the town.

Moreover, there is no familiar shop, so even if I take it to the town to sell it, I am afraid I won’t get a good price.

"Let your father run a trip tomorrow. It will only take an hour to go back and forth."

Old Man Su was also thinking about selling this thing as soon as possible, exchanging it for silver and money so that it could be something real.

After saying that, he told Su Danian in the yard to make the trip early the next morning.

The work in the field has been completed, and the next step is to plant the corn. But I don’t mind wasting half a day’s work, as there are other people at home working in the field.

Su Danian lowered his head and responded.
