When we arrived at Akiye Mountain, it was already afternoon
The afternoon sun shines down from the clouds and shines slantingly on Qiuye Mountain, casting a hazy layer of sunlight on the top of the mountain.
Ye Chuqiu stood at the foot of the mountain and looked at the top of the mountain with indescribable satisfaction. Although it was overgrown with thorns and weeds, in her eyes, it had become something else.
"Let's go, this will be our home from now on, let's go up and take a look first." Ye Chuqiu said to Lin Dahu.
"Mom, can we carry all these things?" Lin Sanhu was carrying a backpack with a look of exhaustion on his face.
"Of course." Ye Chuqiu nodded, "Since this place was originally a villa, I guess there must be a house on the mountain. Let's clean it up and we can live there... Come, let Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi out."
Whether they were in Wujiagou, in the city, or on the way to escape from famine, Ye Chuqiu and the others always carried six and seven tigers in baskets on their backs to prevent others from seeing them.
These two little guys now weigh at least thirty or forty pounds. Carrying them all the way up the mountain is also a burden.
Now Qiuye Mountain is his own hilltop. Ye Chuqiu will build a fence to surround the hilltop tomorrow, and then he can let them run around on the hilltop as he pleases.
Now, she still ties them with two chains to prevent them from running up the mountain and not being found.
So others were walking their dogs, while Ye Chuqiu was walking these two little tigers.
The rich and powerful ones in the family, Laifu, were a little excited when they came to the new environment and ran around, but they didn't dare to stray too far from their owners. They wandered around and then turned to Ye Chuqiu and the others.
Walking up the mountain, you can vaguely see a winding trail, but no one has walked on it for a long time. It has been covered with weeds, and it has been raining for so long. Although it has been sunny in the past two days, it is still wet and a little uncomfortable.
Very good to go.
Just halfway through, Fugui and Laifu suddenly started barking loudly. Ye Chuqiu was wondering what their names were when a long worm suddenly emerged from the grass, which startled Ye Chuqiu.
The two dogs, Fugui and Laifu, came to their senses. Fugui held down the long worm with his paw, and the long worm raised its head to bite them. Laifu reacted quickly and bit the snake's head in one bite.
"Hehehe, I didn't expect that God would give us a big gift just after we went up the mountain. We can eat snake soup tonight."
Ye Chuqiu is actually a bit afraid of snakes, but now that she is the head of the family, how can she show her timidity in front of her children? Dang even laughed twice and said calmly, of course, her stiff body was still exposed
Her nervousness.
"Mom, this is a five-step snake." Lin Erhu said from the side.
"A five-step snake, if one bites it, wouldn't it be fatal?"
Ye Chuqiu's voice suddenly became weak. At this time, we don't have the kind of medical technology in the future. This bite will really kill someone.
Hiss, God really gave her a big gift. He wanted her life. Fortunately, she was rich and had two bodyguards.
Realgar, I have to go to the city to buy more realgar tomorrow!
"Yes, but the five-step snake is very valuable. City people like to use it to make wine." Lin Erhu said again.
"I'm not interested in snake wine, but I can brew it and give it to Mr. Qi. After all, he has helped us a lot this time. This snake wine can be considered a token of our gratitude."
Ye Chuqiu thought of Qi Chongjin. Although she had many interesting things, she had nothing to give to him. This snake wine could be regarded as a specialty of her Qiuye Mountain, which was in line with the simplicity of their country people.
"Mom is right, let's give it to Mr. Qi."
Lin Dahu also nodded seriously. He was also a child who knew how to repay kindness. He immediately stepped forward, frowned, pinched seven inches of the snake from the dog's mouth, made it loosen its mouth, and took out the snake.
Ye Chuqiu secretly looked around at everyone and found that none of the children around her were afraid of snakes. Even Qiao'er looked up at Zhao Hehua and asked in a sweet voice: "Mom, is the snake wine good?"
Do you want to drink?”
"Children can't drink." Zhao Hehua said softly, with a doting smile on his face.
"What about the snake soup?" Qiaoer asked again. She seemed to be a little greedy when she heard the word soup.
"Snake soup is quite delicious, it tastes like meat." Zhao Hehua replied.
"Have you ever eaten a snake before?"
Ye Chuqiu felt goosebumps all over her body. She thought that on the way to escape, she saw that they had eaten rats, insects, and seemed to have eaten snakes. It was not a big deal.
"Have eaten it."
Zhao Hehua nodded, "At that time, there were a lot of four-legged snakes in our village. Sometimes we would find them when we were hunting pig weeds in the early morning, so we would catch them, roast them at home and eat them. They are delicious."
"Yes, yes, it smells very good."
When Lin Sanhu heard about the roasted four-legged snake, he immediately became energetic and said vividly: "At that time, I often went out to catch four-legged snakes with my friends. My mother didn't like this thing, so we didn't dare to take it home.
, so he stole flint from home and found a field to roast it by himself. It was delicious."
"Mom is afraid of snakes."
Zhao Hehua noticed Ye Chuqiu's tense body and said with a smile, "My daughter-in-law finally discovered that my mother is also afraid of something."
"I'm not afraid of snakes, I just don't like them." Ye Chuqiu said something, and then said to Lin Dahu: "So Lin Dahu, please stay away from me and don't wander around me with your damn long worms."
"Mom, don't be afraid. I squeezed its seven inches tightly, and it can't bite you." Lin Dahu said with a smile: "This five-step snake is valuable. I caught one before, took it to the town, and traded it.
Fifty cents a mile."
"Hey Lin Dahu, when did you secretly make money and didn't even tell your mother?" Ye Chuqiu squinted his eyes and glanced at Lin Dahu.
"That happened a long time ago." Lin Dahu said with a guilty conscience.
"I didn't expect that you, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would actually know how to hide something. Fortunately, my mother still trusts you the most." Ye Chuqiu said with squinting eyes, pretending to look a little sad and disappointed.
"Mom, I hid it just once."
Lin Dahu thought that Ye Chuqiu was really angry, so he quickly explained: "At that time, Hehua had just given birth to Qiao'er, she had no milk, and there was nothing to eat at home. At that time, my son was thinking of going to the mountains to hunt two pheasants, but he didn't expect
, I actually caught a five-step snake. My mother was so kind to my uncle, cousin, and others at that time that my son really had no choice but to keep the money."
"Yes, mother, the head of the house is doing it all for me. If you want to blame, just blame me. Don't be angry with the head of the house. He is the most filial to you."
Zhao Hehua's eyes turned red as she spoke. She was probably thinking of the hard days at that time. At that time, she had just given birth to a baby and was lying on the bed without even having to drink a bowl of brown sugar water. Her mother thought she was squeamish and wanted to force her out of bed.
Work, just do it, but her food is also the worst, there is no milk, and the child cries all night long. The head of the house has no choice but to get up early and secretly go up the mountain to find some food for her.
.
When she thought of the past days and her current life, she felt that everything she had now was just like in a dream. Even when she was fleeing, she felt happy. Sometimes, she was even afraid that such happy days would be
It was a dream, and when she woke up, she was still in Linjia Village, living a life worse than a pig or a dog.
"Okay, what happened in the past is in the past. I don't blame you anymore. If anything happens to you in the future, remember to tell your mother that she is not as harsh as you think... Also, there were things that my mother did wrong in the past.
, please bear with me."
"Mom... please don't say that. You gave birth to us, and we will never be able to repay your kindness to us in our lifetime."
Seeing that Ye Chuqiu actually apologized to them, Lin Dahu and the others were frightened and a little moved at the same time. "Since ancient times, there have been only unfilial children and no wrong parents. In the past, sons also did many things wrong. It is the son who should pray to his mother."
of forgiveness.”
"Okay, let's not talk about this between mother and son. From now on, we will start a new life. Whether the past days were good or bad, let's not mention them anymore. From now on, our family will
People should unite and be friendly, trust each other, and work together!"
After listening to Ye Chuqiu's words, Lin Dahu and others looked at each other and nodded.
Everyone continued to move forward. At this time, Lin Sihu, who had sharp eyes, shouted, "There is a house ahead, and I can see the roof."
"It must be the village left by the former landlord. Let's go and have a look." Ye Chuqiu was also overjoyed when he heard this and hurried towards the village.
The sun broke through the clouds and spilled down, and each of their faces was filled with light.
