Rebirth 60: After the separation, he took his wife to eat delicious food

Chen Yuan looked outside and saw that it was still early, so he could go to the front mountain to pick up some firewood.

"I'll go get some more firewood and be back soon. If you and your mother are hungry, you can eat first. You don't have to wait for me."

After saying that, Chen Yuan picked up the hatchet and hunting rifle at the door and turned to go out.

The road up the mountain was difficult to walk on, so Chen Yuan cut a wooden stick and used it as a crutch.

After walking for about ten minutes, Chen Yuan noticed a dry bush on the left. There were also many pheasant footprints on the ground, one after another.

Chen Yuan was delighted that there were still pheasants in the front mountain that had not been discovered!

But when he walked near the bushes, he still didn't see any trace of the pheasant.

I guess a pheasant has stayed nearby, so there might be pheasant eggs in the bushes.

Chen Yuan squatted in front of the bushes and dug hard with both hands. Sure enough, he found a nest of pheasant eggs in the bushes.

They are about the same size as the nest we found yesterday, but there are only three of them.

Chen Yuan didn't mind and took away the pheasant's chicken coop made of hay.

pheasant:???

……

Less than half an hour after coming out, Chen Yuan felt the biting cold wind, especially his hands which were frozen red.

The cotton gloves at that time were big and bulky and could not hold anything at all. Chen Yuan also found them inconvenient to use, so he just hung them around his neck and put them in to warm up when he was cold.

After his hands warmed up a little, he took the hatchet and chopped a lot of wood. He took out a hemp rope from his pocket, tied the wood together, dragged it with his hands and tucked it under his armpits, preparing to go down the mountain.

When he reached the door of his house, Chen Yuan smelled the aroma of meat coming from the cave.

He curled the corners of his lips, feeling sweet in his heart.

Life with a wife is something that those bachelors can’t even imagine.

Chen Yuan piled the firewood into the woodshed. It was snowing outside and couldn't get water on it, so it would be easier to burn when it was dry.

It is called a woodshed, but in fact it is just a simple shed that the previous family built with a few pieces of wood leaning against the wall on one side and covered with hay.

Chen Yuan took out a bundle of firewood and pushed the door open to enter the house.

In the past, the Chen family ate cabbage stewed with meat. Not only was there not much meat, but their second family could only drink the soup. If they ate an extra bite of vegetables, they would be scolded by Zhang Guixiang and Li Qinfen.

"How long can the food at home last?"

Chen Yuan asked casually while biting a steamed bun.

"There's also half a pound of mixed noodles, two potatoes, and a head of cabbage."

Chen Yuan frowned subconsciously. This was not much. If it was not paired with wild boar meat, it would only be enough for one day.

"Give me two pounds of wild boar meat later, and I'll go to Uncle Zhiqiang's house to exchange it for some food."

After finishing her meal, Sun Weiwei went out to get two pounds of wild boar meat that she had hidden away, when she saw Zhang Guixiang and her group rushing towards their house. Frightened, Sun Weiwei hurried back into the house.

Li Qinfen saw Sun Weiwei hiding in the house and scolded her, "That little bitch, how dare she use new cloth to make clothes! Taotao doesn't even have new clothes this year! Grandma, when you grab the cloth later, you must make Taotao a pair of pants!"

Zhang Guixiang smiled, her eyes narrowed into slits, "Of course!"

As soon as Chen Hai got home, he told his family about this matter, but he didn't dare to tell the truth. He just told his family that Chen Yuan went to the county to buy cloth and just came back.

The family rushed over right after dinner.

In the cave, Sun Weiwei was nervously telling Chen Yuan that the Chen family had come to look for her when she heard Zhang Guixiang's powerful voice.

"Chen Yuan, quickly take out your cloth. Taotao just doesn't have enough cloth for his clothes this year!"

Chen Yuan's face darkened as he said in a cold voice, "Chen Guangtao has no cloth to make clothes, what does it have to do with me?"

Li Qinfen replied as if it was a matter of course: "You are Taotao's second uncle. When Taotao becomes successful in the future, he will definitely repay you!"

Chen Yuan just found it funny after hearing this, and he curled the corners of his lips.

"I thought Chen Guangtao's parents were both dead, so the property was being transferred to my name!"

Li Qinfen's lips trembled with anger as she pointed at Chen Yuan and cursed, "Chen Yuan, who are you cursing here?"

"Isn't it obvious? Of course it's you!"

"Chen Hai asked you to come, right? He just gave me eighty cents and asked me not to tell anyone about him stealing eggs!"

Chen Yuan clicked his tongue and looked at the Chen family with pity.

Li Qinfen even yelled, "Grandma! I was wondering why our eggs were so few! Turns out the third child stole them!"

Zhang Guixiang had a look on her face as if she had eaten a dead fly. She clenched her teeth and squeezed out a sound, "Let's go! I'll come back to settle the score with you later!"

……

After the Chen family had gone far away, Chen Yuan took two pounds of wild boar meat to exchange for food.

At that time, the cotton-padded clothes were thick, and no one could see the wild boar meat hidden inside the clothes.

As soon as Chen Yuan arrived at Chen Zhiqiang's house, he saw He Chunhua walking out of the house with a basin of water.

"Aunt Chunhua!"

"Hey, Erwa is here! Come in and sit down. Your uncle is home, and he wants to ask you about your rabbit."

Chen Yuan nodded and followed him into the house.

As soon as he entered the house, Chen Yuan smelled the smell of cigarettes. Chen Zhiqiang was smoking a pipe with his brows tightly twisted into the shape of a "川" character.

"Aunt, here are two pounds of wild boar meat. You and uncle can have some."

He Chunhua didn't want to accept Chen Yuan's wild boar meat, as the boy had just given it to the old couple yesterday.

"You kid, just come here, why do you need meat?"

Chen Yuan shook his head and said with an embarrassed look: "Aunt, I want to exchange some food with you. You know, my family didn't give me much food when I was divided out, and now it's really not enough to eat."

"That's why I'm so shameless as to come and exchange some food with you."

He Chunhua wiped away her tears out of heartache. What a good child! The hearts of the Chen family are made of stone!

"Good boy, your uncle and I, two old guys, don't have much food to eat, so we can exchange it with you!"

With that, He Chunhua got up and went to the kitchen.

Only Chen Yuan and Chen Zhiqiang were left in the room.

"Uncle, I see you're frowning. Is that what my aunt said about the rabbit?"

Chen Zhiqiang nodded. He had gone to see the two rabbits today. They seemed to be in good spirits. However, he had never raised rabbits before, so he was worried that he wouldn't be able to feed them well.

"These two rabbits are wild rabbits. They usually eat wild grass in the mountains. There is no fresh grass in the winter, so feeding them some hay will be fine."

Chen Yuan carefully explained the details of raising rabbits, and Chen Zhiqiang finally felt relieved.

"Yesterday I was so happy about the ease of the job and the centimeters I could earn, I forgot I had no experience."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Uncle, just go ahead and do it. I heard from the village chief that if we can't make ends meet, we'll just have a big pot of rice. I won't blame you."

"Now that you've said that, Erwa, I feel much more relieved!"

Chen Zhiqiang's eyes lit up, and his hand that was smoking a pipe paused, obviously a little excited.

After a while, He Chunhua came out of the kitchen with food.

"Erwa, this is a pound of potatoes, a pound of radishes, and three pounds of mixed noodles. Take them all. Yiyi is still growing, and we can't let her starve!"
