A peasant girl with a special ability uses herself and two wolves to escape famine!
Chapter 31 Fishing with Nets
She simply wanted to show Jiang Yi the lives of ordinary people, the last vestiges of prosperity in the prefectural city, and broaden his horizons. They were worried about the two wolves at home, so they didn't linger too long before returning.
Jiang Yi never expected that human life could be so miserable. Looking at their thin and weak appearance, they were not much different from the beast brothers he had in the mountains.
It's really tough when there's nothing to eat.
Just as Xiao Ning said, life is hard for all living beings. They were just lucky to have met Xiao Ning, who possessed a magical treasure, and thus escaped the suffering of hunger. From now on, he would protect her even better.
After arriving home, he ate the braised pork he had made earlier, eating it piece by piece until his mouth was greasy.
"Xiao Ning, look, the ground is dry."
So?
Xia Ning glared at him. What kind of trouble was this bastard up to now? He was always so restless.
"Should we go up the mountain and stock up on another batch of water?"
Xia Ning almost fell off the stool. Holy crap, bro, you're still thinking about this? Should I thank you for not hanging me down a well?
Xia Ning thought for a moment. Right now, the city was the safest place. Going up the mountain to store water wasn't a bad idea. After all, these water sources would dry up eventually anyway.
If she's going out, she plans to look around and wander around, and doesn't intend to come back for the time being.
"Jiang Yi, pack your things, we're going out to stock up on supplies."
"Great!" The man's voice was filled with undisguised excitement.
What a peculiar case.
With Xia Ning by his side, Jiang Yi could take everything he had packed. He couldn't bear to throw anything away, so when they left, the yard was completely empty except for the stove, which they couldn't take with them. The cleanliness gave Xia Ning the illusion that she might never come back.
The wolf and the mule were thrown into the space along with food and water, and the wolf was made to watch over them and prevent them from ruining the seedlings.
The two traveled light, without bringing anything, and headed towards the largest mountain, Zining Mountain.
“There’s a big river halfway up the mountain. It’s deep and long, stretching all the way to the opposite mountain.” He used to bathe and catch fish there often.
"Okay, let's go there first."
I have to praise Jiang Yi; she's really sharp. She speaks more and more clearly now, and her thinking is getting better and better. Her only flaw is her greed; there are very few people greedier than her.
The mountain path was easier to walk now, and they didn't need to pack anything. The two of them walked with their heads down, and their speed was much faster than before. In less than an hour, they reached the river that Jiang Yi had mentioned.
It is indeed very deep and long, and the river channel is wide enough.
Release the wolves and mules, let them roam freely.
"Keep an eye on your surroundings, I'll collect the water."
"it is good!"
Jiang Yi was very concerned about her safety. He instructed the two wolves not to wander far, and he obediently stayed on the shore to watch Xia Ning collect the water.
Seeing him idling around, he asked, "Jiang Yi, do you know how to catch fish? I have a fishing net."
"Let me try." He had grabbed it with his bare hands before.
Xia Ning took out the fishing net and taught him how to use it. This guy is so strong, he can throw it very far.
"Stay a little further away from me while you're fishing."
"it is good."
He was eager to try out this new gadget.
Seeing that he had learned how to cast a net after only five or six attempts, Xia Ning stopped paying attention to him and continued to collect the water.
"Xiao Ning, give me the bucket!"
Xia Ning turned around and saw fish jumping around on the shore. "Wow, this guy's amazing! He caught so many so quickly. Seriously, in winter, didn't the fish freeze to death?"
He took out three large wooden buckets: "Fill them with some water."
"Ai!"
Jiang Yi, having enjoyed the catch, picked up the fish from the ground with his bucket and happily went to the other side to continue netting. He never expected to have such a good harvest in the mountains.
Aside from eating, Jiang Yi spent all his time fishing. When the fish in one spot dwindled, he cleverly knew to move to another spot to continue fishing.
The sun was setting, and the moon slowly climbed into the night sky. Xia Ning rubbed her aching back and returned to the shore.
"Jiang Yi, you can sleep here tonight."
He doesn't care where he sleeps; the outdoors suits him better.
"Listen to you."
"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Xia Ning's lips curled up, in a very good mood: "What do you want to eat tonight?"
"Grilled fish, I'll grill some fish for you."
"Okay." He took out a bunch of seasonings and fed them to the two wolves and the mule. "I'm going inside to lie down for a while. Call me when it's done."
Jiang Yi nodded. Xiao Ning's work of collecting water was too hard, and he couldn't do it.
She quickened her movements as she cleaned the fish; after a long afternoon, she must have been very hungry.
Xia Ning was a little tired. Packing things had taken a lot of energy, and she hadn't stopped all afternoon. Now, she felt dizzy. She lay on the bed and drifted off to sleep.
Jiang Yi stared at the grilled fish in his hand, unsure whether to take it inside. He heard her soft breathing; she must be asleep. Waking her would disturb her sleep. But if he didn't, she was still hungry.
Jiang Yi irritably ran his fingers through his hair, his handsome features contorted in frustration. Fine, he'd let himself eat the grilled fish. He'd grill another one as soon as Xiao Ning woke up.
After eating and tidying up, he and the wolf cub led the mule to another room to rest. Before going to sleep, they didn't forget to cast the fishing net again, preparing to pull it in the next morning.
Xia Ning slept until dawn, only to wake up hungry. Opening her eyes, still groggy, she rubbed her stomach. Ugh, so hungry. Didn't they say they'd grill fish for her last night? Where is they?
I just opened the door to the wooden cabin.
"You're awake. Are you hungry? The fish will be ready soon. You were asleep last night, so I didn't wake you."
Eating grilled fish first thing in the morning? Is that too much to ask?
Xia Ning took a few bowls of porridge and steamed buns, intending to eat them with the grilled fish.
"Where are Da Ha and Er Ha?"
"Don't worry about them. I ate fish this morning and went out to have some fun. The fish is ready!"
Holding eight grilled fish, he shouted, "Eat up!"
Xia Ning: She's not a pig, okay?
One bite, and it's really well-grilled; the fish inside is very tender and not dry at all.
"I'll eat two, the rest are yours."
Jiang Yi nodded.
"Your barbecue skills are really good. Let's open a barbecue stall after the natural disaster is over. The business will definitely be good."
after……
Can they still be together after a natural disaster?
very good!
Jiang Yi smiled at her and said, "Okay!"
A bowl of porridge, two fish, and a steamed bun—she already felt stuffed. Everything on the table ended up in this man's stomach. Sometimes, she really worried that he didn't know when he was full and would stuff himself to death.
"Jiang Yi, you need to control your food intake."
"You think I eat too much?" He does seem to eat a lot, wasting food.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Eating like that is bad for your health. No one's stomach can handle it. From now on, eat until you're not hungry, but don't overeat."
"Then I'll eat less from now on." The man's voice was deep, but there was not a trace of displeasure.
