However, after Yu Wan hunted five fat pheasants and a bunch of fat and strong hares, her backpack was almost filled with them. There was no extra place to put winter bamboo shoots. She only dug a few and hugged them in her arms and went down the mountain with satisfaction.

Xiao Tiedan thought that her sister was going to dig bamboo shoots and fishing, and was counting on her fingers how many fish she could eat tonight, but she saw her sister coming back with a few pheasants and hares on her back.

Xiao Tiedan had never seen such a big chicken or rabbit, and her eyes were straightened: "Sister! Is this a chicken? Why is it so big? The rabbit is so big! It's bigger than the rabbits in the Ri Zheng family!"

Rabbits are rare things, and they are not something that anyone can afford. They were buying a gray rabbit from the town, which made everyone envious.

"Sister! Where did you get the rabbit?" Xiao Tiedan squatted down and went to catch the rabbit's ears.

Yu Wan hurriedly grabbed his little hand: "Beware that it bites people."

"The rabbit still bites people?" Xiao Tiedan asked in confusion.

"Of course." Rabbits occasionally bite people, let alone these two hares? However, it's strange that they looked like hares, but they were much more docile than imagined. If they hadn't been found in such a deserted place, she would have thought that someone had caught the hares and raised them freely.

Yu Wan locked the hare in a temporary open-air chicken coop.

It is said to be a small chicken coop, but it is actually a small circle surrounded by two-foot-high bamboo strips, with a diameter of less than one meter.

Little Tiedan squatted obediently outside the chicken coop, looking at the big fat rabbit without blinking.

Yu Wan smiled and looked at him and said, "Do you want to eat rabbits tonight?"

"Ah?" Xiao Tiedan turned her head and looked at her sister in horror. How could such a cute rabbit want to eat it?

"Don't eat, don't eat." Yu Wan said hurriedly.

Xiao Tiedan breathed a sigh of relief and heard Yu Wan say, "Then sell it."

Little Tiedan: "..."

Yu Wan put the pheasant into the chicken cage.

When Jiang came to the backyard, Yu Wan was carrying the chicken cage under the eaves of the backyard. It was cold and it was snowing at some point. It would be better to be prepared for any incidents.

Yu Wan put the chicken cage on her back and turned her head to see her mother leaning against the door frame of the back door of the main hall, looking at her with a smile on her face.

Even though she was wearing a coarse linen, Jiang was still as beautiful as a fairy in the forest. Her stunning appearance was really amazing even after seeing it several times.

But what Yu Wan cares more about is Jiang's meaningful eyes.

Could it be that he has acted too competent these days, which has made Jiang suspicious?

"My mother..."

Yu Wan was about to find an excuse for herself, Jiang said naturally: "I'll just say that you were broken in your mind in the past."

Yu Wan: “…”

After cleaning the backyard, Yu Wan talked to Jiang about her uncle: "Mom, how much money does it cost to go to the capital to treat her legs?"

Jiang held his chin and thought for a while: "At least... one hundred taels."

Yu Wan was shocked: "So many?"

"Yes." Jiang nodded calmly, "Your uncle has missed the best time for treatment. Ordinary doctors cannot treat his illness, and the medical fees of famous doctors are not cheap... Otherwise, why would you say that ordinary people cannot afford to get sick?"

The word "ordinary people" popped up from a peasant woman, which always seemed like an outsider telling the story of another group of people.

Yu Wan glanced at Jiang.

Jiang also looked at her, smiled and said, "But I believe Awan will definitely make so much money."

So many...this is like what a peasant woman can say.

Yu Wan said: "I plan to sell half of the pigs at home, and sell all these pheasants and hares to get some New Year's goods for the family. My mother also sees what she and her brother need to buy."

She still had the fourteen taels left of the last time she sold salt, so she stopped moving the money and travel expenses for her uncle.

Jiang said with a smile: "Okay."

"Sister, sister! Come and see!" At some point, the little Tiedan, who was squatting next to the chicken cage, raised his hand at Yu Wan, "The pheasant lays the egg!"

Ordinary chickens will not lay eggs after entering winter. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, Yu Wan could not believe it was true.

Yu Wan picked up the hot pheasant egg and said with satisfaction: "Then I won't sell this one. Keep it and lay eggs. Sister makes eggs for you every day."

That night, the hen that laid the eggs received special treatment from Yu Wan - she moved to a large and comfortable "luxury" chicken cage with great confidence, not only entered the house, laid hay, but also placed feed.

The next day, when Yu Wan went to clean up the chicken cage in the backyard, she found that four other fat pheasants inside were all very proudly laying an egg.

The stunned Yu Wan: "..."

...

Pheasant...the pheasant will not be sold, just rabbits and pigs.

Tomorrow is the day to go to the market. Before that, I can go to the mountains again.

She planned to call Yu Feng and Yu Song, but as soon as she went out, she met them. They were carrying wooden barrels and fishing nets were loaded with fishing nets. Obviously, they thought of her.

"Big brother, second brother." She greeted with a smile.

Yu Song's face was smelly.

Yu Feng responded as usual: "The sky is not good, and it may be snowing soon. When the lake freezes, you will be unable to net fish. My second brother and I will be more net today."

Yu Wan looked at the dark sky and agreed: "Then I will dig more bamboo shoots too."

After a pause, he thought of something and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to go back in the evening. I'll go and make some dry food with me."

"We're bringing it!" The two brothers spoke in unison!

Yu Wan turned her head blankly and looked at the two who had reacted violently: "Oh."

Perhaps realizing that he had reacted too much, Yu Feng cleared his throat in embarrassment and said, "Today... let's eat at my house, my mother said she cooks."

"Okay." Yu Wan smiled, not refusing.

The pig's trotters I bought yesterday have not eaten yet, so they have been put on the stove and smoked. Before going out, she sent the pig's trotters, five eggs and two fat pheasants to the old house.

My uncle's family had raised chickens before, but later sold the last old hen to raise money for my uncle's medicine.

"Give it to me."

The aunt was sitting in the backyard peeling dried corn on the cob. The aunt walked over with a crutch, grabbed a handful of corn kernels and walked towards the chicken coop.

The aunt was dissatisfied: "What are you doing? If you have vegetable leaves, you can feed the chickens! People can't eat enough!"

The uncle smiled and said, "Didn't you listen to Awan? It's a chicken that can lay eggs."

Is it a chicken? Is it the one who sent the chicken? The aunt rolled her eyes and took the dustpan to the stove.

I don't bother to pay attention to this person!

After feeding the pheasant, the uncle limped up, took a kitchen knife from her hand, and said to her: "I'll do it."

The aunt looked at him as if she had seen a ghost!

The uncle ignored her surprise, put down her crutches, and happily went to cut vegetables.

The aunt looked at his busy and happy figure, and for a moment, she couldn't come back to her senses.

"Isn't it just a girl? It's worth your happiness?" The aunt muttered in sobs, turned around, and wiped her red eyes.
