Era: Start as a buyer

Chapter 6 Harvest in the Mountains

There were many small fruits near the jungle entering the mountain. Luo Cheng saw snake berries. Why are they called snake berries? Some people say that it looks like the spit of a snake, while others say that wherever there is such a fruit, there are snakes nearby. This kind of fruit is sweet and has a lot of water. Luo Cheng likes to eat it. It is also a bait for catching small animals.

When hunters usually go into the mountains, they will collect some wild fruits they see on the way, either to eat them or to use them in traps. If there are no wild fruits, then we have to use grain as a temptation. Of course, if there is nothing, then you have to try your luck by finding an animal cave or some necessary places. Anyway, baited traps have a higher chance of catching prey.

Luo Cheng went into the mountain this time to check for traps. He relied on walking distance and rope traps, which are easy to make. Get more of them. In this season, small animals are still easy to catch.

More than an hour later, Luo Cheng came down the mountain with a happy face, two mice, a half-grown rabbit and a wild bird. There are many baby rabbits in this season, and the rabbits will become fatter in autumn.

If it were in the past, this wild bird must have been exchanged for food. If the rabbit is bigger, it can be exchanged for food or the like. As for mice, they can be roasted to satisfy their cravings. For those who know how to bake, they will bake evenly and the bones will be crispy, so they can eat them all without wasting any.

Looking at the rabbit in his hand, Luo Cheng thought of his sister Luo Yan, but he also thought that she still lived with his brother and didn't want to go find her.

In this era, the eldest son provides for the elderly, and parents tend to favor some eldest sons. This is why once a family needs to be separated, it is basically the son other than the eldest son who is separated. I have never seen the eldest son separated, but this concept has always existed, so many younger sons have understood this situation since they were young.

But I understand, but the bias in many things still makes Luo Cheng feel uncomfortable. For example, Luo Cheng was rewarded for beating criminals to death. A while ago, his parents came to Luo Cheng's house every three days to say that life at home was difficult. His sister-in-law also gave birth to two children.

The above rewarded Luo Cheng with a hundred yuan in cash, as well as some bills, a washbasin, an enamel cup, a thermos bottle, and so on. You may know that when the family was separated, Luo Cheng was given nothing but a worn-out gun. I don't have the nerve to ask for the washbasin and hot water bottle. I want Luo Cheng to come up with some money and bills so that I can go to the town to buy some food to replenish my sister-in-law's health.

In fact, when his parents didn't come to him for help, Luo Cheng thought of taking the initiative to help his brother Luo Qiang and his eldest sister. Anyway, he is alone, so he can feed himself and the whole family will not be hungry. But his parents came to ask for it. Luo Cheng didn't care about what they wanted, but he was too partial.

This partiality would make Luo Cheng unhappy with his brother Luo Qiang. In fact, there is no conflict between the two of them, but why is it that just because you are the eldest son, everyone in the family is attracted to you. If he hadn't happened to encounter a criminal being beaten to death, Accountant Zhao would have offered to marry his daughter to him. Neither his parents took the initiative to find a partner for him.

Luo Cheng can bully honest people in the town and pick some vegetables to eat directly from other people's vegetable fields. But he didn't dare to force himself to sleep with a girl. He also wanted to be able to sleep with a woman legitimately like his brother Luo Qiang. But my parents just didn't care. My sister-in-law was married to my parents a few years ago with wild boar meat as a betrothal gift.

Could it be that Luo Cheng was not his biological son and was not worth the meat? Regardless of whether you can find a good-looking wife, you can at least make some arrangements.

Therefore, Luo Cheng has a somewhat independent personality now. He usually doesn't go to his parents' house, and even during festivals, he won't take the initiative to go unless his mother comes to call him. Although I know that he is not the only one who is like this, many farmers' families are also biased in this way. They all say that if you marry a daughter, you will not marry a second son. This is the truth and there is no help.

The things caught were basically alive. Luo Cheng set up a rope trap, not a trap that was touched with a big stone and pressed down directly. In that case, the mouse can basically be crushed.

Luo Cheng planned to go back and feed the wild birds, and roast the others and eat them. When I go back, I will use bamboo to make a bamboo cage to raise chickens, which is very convenient.

Liujiagou, Liu Changgen's family, is sister Luo Cheng's husband's family.

Because other people get up early in the morning and go to work, they will come back earlier. Depending on the weather conditions, we might not be on time when we get home for dinner, but the approximate time is almost the same.

Luo Lan ate a piece of meat brought by his brother this morning, and felt the smell of meat in his mouth all morning. Not to mention, she just lacked nutrition, and it was obvious that she felt more breast-feeding than before.

After her brother left, Luo Lan counted sixteen more buns besides the one she and her son had eaten. Even if the steamed buns are cold, they are soft and delicious.

In addition to the steamed buns, there are two bowls of rice. Nowadays, let alone the village, there is no one in the whole town who eats rice directly like this. The rice was not as easy to store as the steamed buns, so Luo Lan planned to cook it thinly. And even if it was thin, it was impossible to put two bowls of rice in it at once, so he had to save one bowl for dinner.

You have to put some vegetable leaves in the porridge and cut some sweet potatoes or something, it will be very good. Moreover, each of them had a steamed bun today, so she and Liangzi stopped eating the steamed buns, after all, they had already eaten them in the morning.

The main thing is this dish. Even though it looks like a mix, there is oil on the surface and there are several pieces of meat. Just heat it up and others will be starved for it.

As soon as Luo Lan's husband Liu Changgen and her parents came back, they asked her if the meal was ready. They were starving to death. Luo Lan originally wanted to give her husband some cover and didn't directly say that her brother had brought some food to see her.

But before Guanzi was sold, the mother-in-law's loud voice came from the kitchen. Even though Luo Lan was standing outside the house, she could hear clearly whether she had put too much rice in lunch today. The porridge was obviously a bit thick. Someone from the mountains just doesn't know how to live, but the sound stopped soon, probably because he saw something else.

"Alan, what's going on with this dish and steamed buns? Where did they come from?"

At first it was a sound of questioning, but now it was a sound of surprise, and Luo Lan was also angry and proud when asked. Although only one of the two bowls of rice brought by Luo Cheng was included, it was indeed more than usual. Now that he was working in the fields, it was all weeding and other tasks. It was not yet time to harvest, so he would not be too dry after eating.

It's just that the mother-in-law didn't know the situation and just shouted so loudly, which made everyone feel uncomfortable. But when I saw the vegetables and steamed buns later, I definitely knew something was wrong. It's the daughter-in-law who helps her mother's family the most, but Luo Lan's mother's family helps her the most, so why don't she be arrogant.

"My brother came here this morning. He knew that I didn't have much milk. He specially left rice and vegetables for me at the restaurant yesterday. He also brought the steamed buns."

"Nai, the steamed buns and meat uncle brought are delicious."

Liu Liang followed Luo Lan and also interrupted, which also revealed that he must have eaten. However, he is the eldest son and the eldest grandson in the family, so there is nothing to eat.

"Mom, my sister-in-law also ate steamed buns and meat this morning. It was a big piece. I heard it in the room. My sister-in-law ate the meat secretly."

~~~

The brother-in-law who was coaxed out at this time didn't care about anything. He didn't dare to say anything in the room when Luo Cheng was there in the morning. Now it is a direct complaint. This married daughter threw water. Luo Lan married into their Liu family, that is, their Liu family. Even if her mother's family brings things, the whole family has to discuss it. How can she eat first? reason.
