MTL - After Breaking Off the Engagement, She Went To the Countryside and Was Pinched By a Rough Man and Pampered

Chapter 25 That’s not what I meant

Liu Qianjin followed Xia Zhi majestically, carrying two fire sticks, and the two of them went straight to the reed swamp.

 Others don’t know, but she does.

Although this reed swamp is dangerous, it is a good place.

 In addition to the reeds in the reed marshes, you can use them to weave mats, baskets, and many utensils.

There is water and silt here in the reed marsh. The silt can be fertilized, and of course it can also kill people invisible.

 The most important thing is that there are some wild ducks living here.

If you have a chance here in the reed swamp, you might even be able to dig up lotus roots.

Xia Zhi brought Liu Qianjin to the edge of the reed marsh. Liu Qianjin asked strangely.

“Xiao Xia, we already have mats, what are we doing here? Are we still making mats?”

 Xia Zhi pursed her lips in happiness.

“Liu Qianjin, let’s not weave mats. Let’s make something delicious this time to improve our lives at noon.”

On the road during the summer solstice, I found a few slender red ash willow branches.

Sure enough, I patted the reeds a few times and immediately saw wild ducks flying up.

Wild ducks can’t fly high, but they can’t fly low either.

 It is difficult to catch.

 You don’t have to think about eating meat, but when she saw the wild duck, Xia Zhi immediately smiled.

Liu Qianjin was a little excited, clapped his hands and stared blankly at the wild duck.

 “Xiaoxia, birds! There are big birds.”

“Liu Qianjin, this is not a big bird, this is a duck, this is a wild duck, it flies very fast.

 We can't catch it.

I'm telling you, you can't just walk in this reed swamp. If you don't see the mud, you can't get out if you step in and get stuck. "

Xia Zhi suddenly remembered that Liu Qianjin had the IQ of a child of a few years old. She led him to do such a dangerous thing, and was afraid that he would imitate him.

 hurriedly warned Liu Qianjin.

Liu Qianjin didn't believe it when he heard this, and still stared at the mud.

Xia Zhi was afraid that he would come secretly by himself. In his previous life, he was unable to move forward because the dam leaked.

 I don’t want Liu Qianjin to put himself in danger again.

Hurryly picked up the branch and thrust it into the mud hard.

Liu Qianjin watched as the branch was inserted into the mud, then slowly fell into the mud and was quickly wrapped in the mud.

 Then dragged into the depths of the mire.

Liu Qianjin was shocked.

 “Xiaoxia, the branch was eaten by the mud.”

“Did you see that such a light branch was eaten by the mud? If you are so heavy, after you fall in, do you think you will be eaten by the mud?”

Liu Qianjin took two steps back when he heard this. He had no idea about the wild duck at this moment.

 “I will be eaten. I don’t want to be eaten by mud.”

"By the way, remember you must not come here alone. Don't touch the mud easily."

Xia Zhi's very serious expression made Liu Qianjin nod solemnly. His mother had told him not to try anything dangerous.

"I will definitely not come, and I will not touch the mud. I will not like mud in the future. Mud will eat people!"

 “By the way, remember that mud can eat people.”

“Xiaoxia, what are we doing here? Let’s go back quickly, I’m afraid of mud!”

“You can’t go to mud, but there are places you can go.”

 Use branches to explore paths during the summer solstice.

 The place where hard branches cannot penetrate is their safest place.

Wild ducks are not stupid, and they will not lay eggs on soft mud. Otherwise, the descendants of their family will also be stuck in the quagmire.

The two of them found two nests of duck eggs in a short time.

 Xia Zhi quickly cut some reeds and weaved them into a small basket. The weaving speed was fast.

 Putting the two nests of duck eggs together, there are actually five or six duck eggs, which are much larger than chicken eggs.

Although it tastes a bit fishy, ​​people these days don’t have a fishy taste, and duck eggs are a good thing.

 Seeing the duck eggs, Liu Qianjin's face immediately showed a child-like smile of satisfaction.

“Xiaoxia, why are you so powerful? How did you know there are bird eggs here? This bird egg is so big!”

“You can’t rush in if you don’t come here!”

 Be sure to use branches to try, and you can only walk on the path that cannot be inserted. Otherwise, you must not walk randomly. "

Xia Zhi still needs to teach Liu Qianjin slowly, which is better than Liu Qianjin running here for duck eggs.

"I won't come. If I want to eat bird eggs, I'll ask Xiao Xia to come. Xiao Xia can do it."

Xia Zhi was very happy after hearing this. Liu Qianjin really regarded herself as a big sister.

 Finding the duck eggs can be regarded as completing a major task today.

Took Liu Qianjin back to Diwozi with great vigor and high spirits.

 Liu Qianjin followed them directly to Diwozi.

 Help to light the fire in Xia Zhi. The earthen stove here needs a bellows.

 Not to mention that Liu Qianjin is really good at making fire.

 Xia Zhi washed the iron pot and boiled the water.

 I used a lunch box to stir some white flour and prepared to make gnocchi soup.

This gnocchi soup is simple and easy, perfect for those who don’t have much seasoning right now.

Liu Zhiyan was a little surprised. She actually dug out sugar, salt, and sesame oil from her backpack. The most important thing was that she also brought a box of lard.

It was cold and the lard was frozen solid in the lunch box. There was no leakage at all and it was packed tightly.

 What’s more important is that this girl’s living conditions are obviously good.

　　　When her parents left, they brought her a lot of things. They just took out a few cans filled with various pickles. Pickles are all good things that can solve their problem of eating at the moment.

 Xia Zhi blushed a little when she saw this thing, as if she was taking advantage of Liu Zhiyan now.

 “No, these are your precious things, you’d better put them away.”

 Xia Zhi carefully examined herself. She objectively drew clear boundaries and could not violate her own principles.

 You cannot say one thing and do another.

“You can pull it off. We eat from the same pot. Do I have to go behind your back and secretly dig a spoonful of lard into my own bowl every day? Do you think I am a solitary eater?

 Besides, you saved my life on the train. What’s the grace of saving my life?

Will you settle the score with my brother this time? "

Liu Zhiyan's point is that she doesn't leave things behind even after taking things, but she especially likes to get along with others and show off her superiority.

“You definitely have to settle the score with your brothers. It’s definitely not appropriate for you to eat these things alone.

 Well, you have contributed these things. I am going to buy things at the bus station tomorrow, and I will buy other condiments at home by then. "

Xia Zhi is not a stingy person, and she is not willing to take advantage of others. She has money in her hands, as well as various coupons and food stamps.

Liu Zhiyan was a little annoyed when she heard this. She originally hoped that Xia Zhi would not be so clearly separated from herself.

I always felt that Xia Zhi was kind to Liu Qianjin, with no complaints or regrets, and never cared about it, but he did care a little about himself.

Who knew that Xia Zhi would have to spend more money? Of course, she knew that Xia Zhi definitely didn’t have much money on her. She was wearing clothes like this and had no food on the road. How much money could she have?

"Xia Zhi, if you do this, you don't treat me as a friend. That's not what I meant at all. I'm not asking you to return it to me."

“I regard you as a friend, but I can’t deliberately take advantage of you just because you are my friend, otherwise you won’t like me.”

 Xia Zhi smiled.

 There must be a sense of propriety between friends. She and Liu Zhiyan still couldn't achieve the kind of close friendship between best friends. Besides, she didn't have any best friends in her previous life.
