Lin Yuxi took out two hares from the basket on his back. The two children were brave and were not frightened. They asked curiously, "How did mother get the hares?"
Even if she felt that the Black Panther family was very friendly to her, Lin Yuxi did not plan to tell them about the Black Panther for the time being. Whether she could understand it or not was one thing. If the two children talked too much, they would easily get into trouble.
"I hit the rabbit with a sickle. When I saw the rabbit, I threw the sickle and hit it directly. Isn't it amazing?" She put her hands on her hips proudly, making the two children admire her. Mother is so amazing.
Chen Zhongqian also felt that Lin Yuxi was very capable. When he saw that she was going to clean up the rabbit, he washed the pot and boiled hot water. The weather was still a bit cold, so you always need to use hot water to clean rabbits.
Lin Yuxi was very efficient at doing this work. The rabbit skin had to be taken off in one piece, cleaned and dried to sell it for money. It was also possible to keep it for herself and make some leather goods, but she didn't know how to do it.
It is too easy for a black panther to bite a rabbit to death. Both rabbits only left a few teeth marks under their necks. This way, the fur can be completely preserved and its value is higher.
Although Chen Zhongqian didn't have a cough, his body was still weak. When the sun became overcast, he went back to the house and put on more clothes. If he accidentally fell ill, he would have to drink medicine for a long time.
Lin Hexi was not polite to him and just called him if he needed anything. Chen Zhongqian ran errands one after another and quickly took care of the two rabbits.
"Your sickle is very powerful." Chen Zhongqian looked at the two complete pieces of fur, "With just two small holes, the rabbit will die?"
Lin Yuxi opened his eyes and told lies, "He was beaten to death."
"Oh, it seems that all the hunters in the village are asking you for advice. They didn't know that I married such a capable woman."
Lin Xixi picked up the rabbit and prepared to enter the house. He curled his lips and said, "You have to slowly understand how capable I am."
I cooked a few dishes at noon and almost finished them. The two children had good digestion ability and ate a lot, but there was no accumulation of food. Lin Yuxi felt free to cook meat for them.
With just two rabbits, it would be troublesome to sell them, so I just cooked them and ate them.
Lin Yuxi bought potatoes and made braised hare meat in the evening. A whole rabbit was chopped into pieces, and a few potatoes were added. The soup was oily and fragrant.
She smeared the remaining rabbit with salt and hung it in the air. After it was dried and steamed, it became another kind of delicacy.
One rabbit only filled half the pot, and they would definitely not be able to eat it. Lin Yuxi took the largest bowl and gave half of it to the Chen family.
Of course it was Chen Yunzhao's house. She would not talk to Chen Mingyi's family, and she wished she would never go there again.
She went to deliver the food, and Chen Zhongqian put the food on the table and washed the hands of the two children. After spending two days together, they gradually became familiar with each other, and the two children talked and laughed with him.
Lin Yuxi walked very quickly, and when she came back, the food had just been set, and the four of them sat down around her. Xiaoyu was still thinking about the two rabbits she had brought back, and kept asking him questions.
"Mom, can you teach me how to hunt rabbits? I will also hunt rabbits in the future."
"No, you are still young and can't run as fast as a rabbit."
Xiaoyu expressed doubts, "Mom, can you run as fast as a rabbit?"
Lin Yuxi felt that she couldn't lie to the children, "No, but I have a sickle. Can you throw the sickle accurately?"
"Probably not." Xiaoyu felt very frustrated. In addition to taking care of his father and sister, he wanted to do more.
Lin Yuxi thought of an idea, "Mom will make something for you later. If you practice it well, I will take you into the mountains to hunt wild rabbits. How about it?"
Finally seeing hope, Xiaoyu's eyes were bright and his meal felt more delicious, "Okay, okay."
Xiaoduo raised his head from his rice bowl, "What about me? Can I go too?"
Lin Yuxi brought her some food, "Forget it, my little arms and legs, just learn to read from your father."
Chen Zhongqian was eating quietly, then suddenly raised his head and saw Xiaoduo looking at him with a smile, and he also smiled.
We usually eat early in the countryside. After cleaning up, it was not dark yet. Lin Yuxi took a knife to clean up the bamboo that was chopped back yesterday. After working a little bit more every day, the fence was quickly built.
The children felt sleepy after eating, but Lin Xixi didn't allow them to go to bed too early, so he helped collect firewood in the yard.
Lin Yuyi estimated how big a yard would be suitable for a circle. The countryside is good, the place is big. This forest belongs to the Chen family, and it was also given to Chen Zhongqian when the family was divided. As long as it does not occupy other people's land, how big is the yard circle?
All at will.
After deciding the range, she inserted a few pieces of bamboo, then coiled a green bamboo strip into a circle and hung it on the tree. She stepped back to see if the distance was suitable, and then drew a line on the ground.
Chen Zhongqian kept looking at her, and it wasn't until she called Xiaoyu over that he guessed what he wanted to do.
"Stand here and throw pebbles into the circle. When you feel that you can hit the target with perfect accuracy, shrink the circle and practice your accuracy."
The little fish was so excited that he quickly found a small stone to practice with. This was so interesting.
After all, he was only five years old, so there was no way he could be accurate. The little fish threw several times but failed to hit, and the distance was not enough twice. However, he did not give up just like that, but became more and more motivated to fight.
Lin Yuxi was very satisfied with his device. Let's practice it. If the accuracy is good, I'll give him a target to practice with.
She doesn't lie to children. If Xiaoyu can really practice well, she won't mind taking Xiaoyu into the mountains to explore. As for boys, it's better to be bolder.
Seeing that the two children were having fun, she sawed a few more bamboo tubes and tied a simple human-shaped stake with green strips.
Chen Zhongqian stood watching at the door. She suddenly turned around and waved to him, "Don't be idle. I will not only rely on medicine to treat your illness, but you also have to exercise. From tomorrow on, you will get up early every day to practice, or you will go for a run."
, or else we’ll drive piles.”
Chen Zhongqian's body was so weak that he was out of breath even when he moved. Both of these exercises were a bit difficult for him. Lin Yuxi planned to let him practice the Daoyin technique, but she forgot about it and had to think about it and practice it by herself.
You can only teach it to him after he has learned it. Now let’s drive the pile first.
"No." How confident.
Lin Joy rolled her eyes, "Just watch and teach me."
She demonstrated once and asked Chen Zhongqian to try it himself.
I have to say that although his body is a little weak, his memory is very good. He just read it once and remembered a few actions very accurately.
Lin Joy nodded with satisfaction, "Well, it finally has a useful place."
They didn't go back to the house until it was completely dark. Lin Yuxi scooped up hot water for the two children to wash, while Chen Zhongqian made both beds.
After finishing their work, they lay down and turned on the lamp. The room became dark again, and everyone quickly fell asleep.
