Quick Transmigration: Cannon Fodder Comes to Counterattack
Chapter 2256: Poor Assault 4
Chapter 2256 Poor counterattack 4
"Don't be lazy at home, go into the mountains and find something to eat back." The old woman urged.
Meng Li glanced at her angrily: "Mother, can't your old man speak nicely? You have to say those ugly words to ruin people's mood."
"Then I am willing? I am not in the mood to say flattery to you after such a life."
The old woman rubbed her hands and put her hands into the water, but the water was already cold, so she took it out immediately.
Helpless, Meng Li took the basket under the eaves and turned around and left. The basket is made of bamboo and it is cold. There is no warmth in this house.
In the first spring, I couldn’t find much in the mountains, but I couldn’t make it. Now I’m short of food at home, I have to find some wild vegetable roots. If I’m lucky I have to meet a pheasant and a hare, and I have to pick up some firewood and go back. Just go up the mountain to collect firewood, and you can sell it for some money.
But in fact, there are poor people around me. When I’m fine, I rummaged in the mountains to find things. There are not many things I can find. The firewood I picked up is enough for my family. It’s unrealistic to want to have extra to sell.
Meng Li went up the mountain with a basket on his back. She picked it up when she thought it was useful. There was dew everywhere. Her clothes became wet and colder. Fortunately, there was still some sunshine coming out slowly, and she dried her clothes again, and raised her head. With her face facing the sun, the warmth came, she squinted her eyes and couldn't help but smile.
This smile was embarrassing to her, and her face hurts because it was too cold before, and there was no nutrition throughout the winter, and it was impossible to have hydrating things, so that her face was too dry and stiff.
I found some wild vegetables and some wild vegetable roots. I picked up some firewood. The back basket was only half of it. That's why she walked a very wide place to find these things. I can see that there are still many people there. Everyone has a hard time looking for things on the mountain, but it’s the hardest for their family.
After all, there are many children, and the pillars of the family have fallen again.
Meng Li sighed deeply and couldn't help but stretched out her hand to caress her stomach. The space here was empty and she was hungry.
In fact, it doesn’t matter if you are hungry, you still have nutrients, but this body hasn’t been exposed to oil and water for too long, and there is a desire for meat that bursts deep in the body. This is always too strong and too gluttonous.
Meat.
The family is so poor that it is absolutely impossible to buy meat to eat. Even if you buy it, you have to be scolded by the old woman, so you can count on this mountain.
There is always a pheasant and hare on this huge mountain. Meng Li released her mental energy to search for it. It took a long time for her to find a pheasant. This pheasant was hiding in the grass outside the forest. Meng Li quickly gave it to it. Leave a mark of mental power, don't let it run away.
Then hurried over and successfully captured a pheasant. This pheasant weighed a few kilograms to lift. Meng Li smiled slightly, and felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, that he could eat meat.
This body is too short of oil and water, it is difficult to use it, and it must first solve the needs of the deep body.
I fainted the pheasant and placed it at the bottom of the back basket. I was afraid of being seen by the neighbors. The life was so poor that if people were to see it, they should also come over with a bowl to ask for some meat.
But there are seven people in the family, and they can’t eat this chicken. There is no extra charity for others.
When she got home, she hid in the kitchen without saying a word. The old woman walked in quickly. She actually wanted to see the morning's harvest. Who knew that a fainted pheasant was found in the back basket.
She opened her mouth in surprise, enough to lay an egg, Meng Li stretched her index finger to her lips: "Shhh"
The old woman understood very well, she closed her mouth immediately, and then swallowed her saliva. She said to Meng Li, "Caught on the mountain?"
Meng Li nodded: "Yes."
The old woman rubbed her hands, then stretched out her hand and stroked the feathers on the back of the pheasant. She said, "This is quite fat."
"Hmm." Meng Li's expression was faint.
I found this one no matter how fat or thin I was, even if I was a thin one, I didn’t let it go.
The old woman immediately sighed: "The last time I found meat to eat was last winter. Ren Da found it on the mountain."
Meng Li didn’t speak, and wanted to kill the pheasant and pluck her hair. Seeing Meng Li’s posture, the old lady stopped her and hesitated. She said:
"Or let's sell it, buy some medicine for Ren Da to see his legs."
"This pheasant can't sell much, and there is no medicine to buy, so I might as well give Ren Da a supplement." Meng Li said without looking up.
This body is too short of oil and water. If you don’t get it, you will feel flustered. It is not reliable. Besides, you can’t sell it for any money. Ren Da’s legs will take care of it.
The old woman was a little angry: "You don't care about your husband either."
"Just know how to eat, you gluttonous woman."
Meng Li frowned slightly: "Mother, what is gluttony? Am I eating alone? And the children, everyone is short of oil and water. How long hasn't it been in my stomach? Mother, don't you feel uncomfortable? Is it really not greedy in your mouth?"
"The food I sold last time didn't make Ren Da's legs feel better, can I get better with this chicken?"
"You still learn to talk back now, you are really going to shake the sky." The old woman also became angry, she could not see Meng Li's attitude.
Meng Li didn’t want to quarrel with her. She was here to change the life of the client’s family, not to deal with the old woman, so she slowed down and her tone softened:
"The children are all pitiful, and Ren Da is also pitiful. I haven't eaten meat for a long time, so make up for it."
The old woman felt relieved when she saw that Meng Li was softened again. She snorted and said: "Gluttonous woman." After that, she said nothing else.
"Eat later." It's time to cook anyway. There is no big difference between eating in the morning and eating in the afternoon.
"I will tell the children to stop making noise." The old woman touched the pheasant's feathers and said, "It's a pity."
She went out, Meng Li took out the pile of firewood she found on the mountain. Those were not too dry and could not be burned. They had to be left for a while, and there were some wild vegetables.
In fact, there are not many edible wild vegetables. Most of them are edible wild vegetable roots. No one wants to eat edible wild vegetable roots. The edible roots are the roots left behind by others taking away the vegetables on it. Keep it and let it sprout, this kind of people who leave wild vegetable roots are not extremely poor, even though they are poor, they are not enough to eat wild vegetable roots.
In the past, the client's house only cut wild vegetables without uprooting. Now it is helpless to even uproot the roots.
In fact, the taste of these wild vegetables is really bad, especially if there is no oil, water, or condiments, they can only be steamed in a pot. The taste is like chewing wax. Meng Qixi wondered how to make it delicious, but four children swarmed in. , They came to see the pheasant.
I always feel that my grandmother deceived them and hasn’t eaten meat for a long time. Does meat really exist?
