Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo
Chapter 4: The fortunes and misfortunes of a person's life are all predetermined
There are few people in Li the Hunter's family. Apart from his wife, there is also a baby who is just one month old.
Old Mrs. Xu thought that the child was still young and needed to drink more fish soup to produce more milk, so she forced a few more fish into Li the Hunter's hand.
Hunter Li was good at hunting but not at tearing bars. When the fight ended, the man's eyes turned red: "Aunt, you have many children. What will you eat if I take them away?"
"Don't worry. Don't you know anything about being an aunt? I won't let my child suffer. Your wife needs to drink more fish soup now. My family is made up of adults and children. What can't they eat?!"
In the end, Hunter Li left with most of the fish in the basket.
Xu Da and Xu Dabao continued to be responsible for cleaning the fish, while Zhang was responsible for drying the fish.
"Mom, adding some salt will make the baked fish taste better." Xu Ning held a bag of salt weighing one kilogram and placed it next to Zhang. When Old Mrs. Xu saw that Zhang was about to scream, she quickly covered her mouth.
"My dear little girl, don't take the food given by the gods easily in the future."
"Why, grandma? Only when we are full will we have the strength to escape the famine... huh?" Old Mrs. Xu directly covered Xu Ning's mouth.
Xu Ning wanted to roll his eyes when he smelled the fishy smell on Old Lady Xu's hands, and instantly wanted to ask if the treasure box could give her some detergent!
This smell is too strong! I didn't feel it when I was catching fish just now! Now Xu Ning feels a fishy smell on his body too!
But they can’t take a bath. In fact, this whole family hasn’t taken a bath in who knows how long, and their bodies are already smelly!
Xu Ning wanted to take a bath, but there were no conditions at all. There was so little water in the creek that he didn't know when it would accumulate enough water for a bath!
I can’t even eat now, why take a shower?! I’ll just stink!
"Why do you have so much? Don't take it if I tell you not to. You are just a child. There are so many adults at home, and you don't have to worry about anything. Go to sleep." Old Mrs. Xu pulled Xu Ning over and led her to the haystack. Xu Xiaobao was awakened by the noise just now, and now he kept looking towards Mr. and Mrs. Xu with his eyes open.
"Xiaobao, stop looking. When you wake up, grandma will cook fish for you. If you don't sleep now, you won't have anything to eat tomorrow!" As soon as Old Lady Xu finished speaking, Xu Xiaobao closed his eyes.
Xu Ning lay down obediently next to Xu Xiaobao. Old Mrs. Xu pulled the dirty quilt closer to Xu Ning, but she still felt uneasy for no reason.
Since she was a child, Old Mrs. Xu has heard her family say that the fortune and misfortunes in a person's life are predetermined, and that only after suffering enough in the first half of life can one enjoy happiness in the second half.
Today, her eldest granddaughter suddenly took out a handful of delicious meat. She was happy at first, but soon wondered if this was in exchange for her granddaughter's blessing.
If so, how much suffering will her granddaughter have to endure in the future?
No, no, no. Grandma Xu felt heartbroken when she thought about her granddaughter suffering in the future.
"Old man, you better watch out from now on. Unless the whole family is starving to death, don't let Daya go to the box again!"
"I'm sorry, old woman. You should take a rest. Our eldest son and eldest son can handle those few fishes. Don't worry about them." In the dim light of the fire, Father Xu saw that his old lady had really aged. In the past month, she had a lot of white hair.
"Okay, I'll talk to the eldest brother and the others. I won't feel at ease if they don't tell me. You just go to sleep!" Old Mrs. Xu tucked in the quilt for Old Man Xu, turned around and walked over to her son and daughter-in-law to give them instructions.
Xu Ning, who was lying on the hay not far away, heard what the treasure chest said and blinked quickly several times.
"Bao, tell me about the mission."
"Hello, player. Your mission is to fulfill Xu Daya's wish before her death. Xu Daya hopes that her family can safely find a new home suitable for survival, and successfully marry and have children..."
"What did you say?! Get married!!?" Xu Ning sat up from the haystack. Xu Xiaobao, who was originally woken up in a daze, had not fallen asleep yet, but he was already sleepy. He rubbed his eyes and asked Xu Ning: "Second sister, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, it's okay, Xiaobao, go to sleep. My second sister's leg just twitched."
"Does it hurt? Xiaobao will give you some comfort."
"My dear, everything is fine now. Go to sleep." Xu Ning looked calm on the outside, but his heart was numb.
A biological father is still a biological father. She originally thought that after her younger brother had a child, he would no longer urge her in disguise. Unexpectedly... she really didn't expect it.
"Bao, the main mission is to find a new home safely, right? Getting married and having children is a side mission?!"
"Hello players, getting married and having children is also the main storyline."
"..." Xu Ning cursed in his heart.
"What if I don't complete this mission?"
"Hello player, if you only complete half of the task, the game will reset."
"..."Xu Ning's heart was filled with the national treasures of various countries!
However, Xu Ning soon found a loophole. She could only get married and have children after finding a new home suitable for survival. In other words, if she stayed on the road all the time, she would not have to consider getting married and having children first.
"Bao, if my mother gives birth to another sister, and she successfully gets married and has children when she grows up, will that count as completing the mission?!"
"Hello, player. Your mission is to help Xu Daya and her family find a new home where they can live safely and have children."
Xu Ning understood, and decided to find a way for Zhang to give birth to another daughter, and name her Xu Daya!
Xu Ning changed the concept, but the treasure box was not clear.
A dreamless night.
Early the next morning, Xu Ning was awakened by the smell of fish soup.
Is the fish soup fragrant?
It smells good! But it tastes like an indescribable earthy smell!
"Baby, give me some ginger and pepper!" Xu Ning put down his bowl and chopsticks and wanted to touch the box, but before he could stretch out his hand, he was held down by Old Lady Xu.
The other members of the Xu family were also staring at her. Xu Ning said awkwardly, "Grandma, can I go to the woods to dig some wild ginger?"
"Don't go. There's nothing in the woods. Daya, drink the fish soup quickly. Then we'll continue on our journey." Xu Ning was frightened by the fierce face of Old Lady Xu. She had to pinch her nose and drink the fish soup at just the right temperature in one gulp. She refused to eat the remaining fish meat.
Xu Ning gave the remaining fish meat to his father Xu Da. The fish meat had a lot of bones, and Xu Ning had no idea what kind of fish was hidden in the mud. It smelled strong and the meat was not tasty.
Xu Da didn't mind at all. He chewed even the fish bones and swallowed them. He ate with such a delicious crunch that Xu Ning was stunned.
The same was true for the others. They seemed not to smell the fishy smell at all and ate it with such relish!
Old Mrs. Xu sucked the marrow from the fish head, then turned around and chewed the fish head into pieces and ate it.
Xu Ning smacked his lips. Xu Dayang has nice teeth. It seems it’s hereditary!
The remaining large bones that could not be chewed were not wasted. Old Mrs. Xu put them in a broken bowl and kept them for stewing at the next meal.
Old Man Xu was the first to finish eating. He was still half lying on the cart, picking his teeth with a fish bone.
Xu Ning wanted to get closer to Old Man Xu, but as soon as her butt left the ground, five pairs of eyes eating fish soup looked over at her.
"I... just want to move around after eating, hehe."
"Well, Daya, go talk to your grandfather." Old Mrs. Xu spoke, and the others continued to gnaw on the fish bones with their heads down.
Xu Ning smiled ingratiatingly, then immediately patted his butt and ran to Old Man Xu.
"Grandpa, that's Uncle Li's wife. She's so pretty!" Xu Ning had nothing to do, so he looked around. The family closest to the Xu family was the Li the Hunter family.
It is said that when Li the Hunter was fleeing famine, his wife had not yet given birth and gave birth on the road. The person who delivered the baby was Xu Ning's grandmother, Old Lady Xu.
"That's right. It is said that Li the Hunter's wife is..." Father Xu whispered a few words in Xu Ning's ear. Xu Ning's eyes lit up and he exclaimed: "Uncle Li is really amazing!"
