021 Return with a Load

Gu Ning'an was stunned for a moment, looking at Gu Xiaowan like a stranger, and then she wondered: "Sister, how do you know that these wild vegetables are not poisonous? Before, when we went to chop firewood, there were a lot of these vegetables in the fields. , we've never eaten it!"

Gu Xiaowan was stunned, yes! This question stumped Gu Xiaowan.

When I saw it before, I thought I didn't see it, but now I know it can be eaten and nourished. To explain, how to explain this, after thinking about it, Gu Xiaowan can only show a mysterious smile: "Ning An, you wait! You will know when my sister is done."

Gu Ning'an saw her sister's confident appearance and believed it.

However, Gu Ning'an still hesitated: "Sister, let's go in less. I always feel unsafe inside."

Gu Ning'an's worries are not unreasonable, they are all children, and they don't know martial arts. The adults who know martial arts are all in trouble, not to mention them.

Gu Xiaowan shook her head: "Sister won't go in, but not now. When our family has money and food and drink, my sister will never go in again."

To be honest, Gu Xiaowan was also afraid.

Except for the swamp, if she doesn't step in, the swamp will not provoke her.

But poisonous snakes and beasts are different, they will pounce upon seeing living things.

Gu Xiaowan was also a little afraid in her heart, but what could she do if she was afraid, she was either bitten by a poisonous snake and swallowed by a beast, or starved to death at home.

Moreover, to starve to death, it is a family of four.

She has to go into the mountains. The next time she goes into the mountains, she needs to prepare more tools. In this case, maybe you can find more small prey.

Gu Ning'an stopped talking, only nodded silently. But I was more determined in my heart, and I must take up the responsibility of the family in the future, and I can't let my sister work so hard.

Gu Xiaowan was about to put the basket on her back again. Gu Ningan grabbed it and said, "Sister, you have been carrying it for so long. I'll come."

Gu Xiaowan nodded and did not argue any more. Agree with Gu Ning'an on his back, the basket is not heavy anyway.

The two walked back hand in hand. This time there was something to eat in the basket, and when the two of them thought that they had rabbit meat to eat at home, they even walked briskly.

When the two came to the shallow mountain, Gu Xiaowan chopped down some sturdy tree trunks with an axe, tied them with hemp rope, and put them in a basket. One basket was full of firewood, about twenty pounds.

Gu Xiaowan thought that she could burn for three or four days. It is necessary to burn more firewood and heat the kang a little. It is too cold to sleep on the kang at night. Woke up in the middle of the night still shivering. After thinking about it, Gu Xiaowan chopped more firewood.

Gu Xiaowan tied the firewood again with hemp rope, put some firewood into Gu Ning'an's basket, and blocked everything inside.

Gu Xiaowan knew that it was quite selfish, but she had no choice. Now that she couldn't get enough food, she couldn't be a virgin.

The two of them gained a lot, and one of them rushed home with a basket on his back. After a while, the two returned home.

Gu Xiaowan pushed open the door of the yard and walked into the yard. Gu Ningping's voice rang out in the room: "Sister, brother, are you back?"

His voice was full of joy and joy. After Gu Xiaowan and Gu Ningan went up the mountain together, Gu Ningping took Gu Xiaowan to play for a while, the house was too cold, and then the two of them hid under the covers and fell asleep again. After waking up, Gu Ningping panicked.

His sister's illness was just getting better, and he went out in such a cold day, he was afraid that her sister would be cold again. After waking up, he held Gu Xiaoyi in his arms all the time, feeling very uneasy.

It wasn't until I heard the courtyard door being pushed open and the footsteps of my sister and brother that a big stone in my heart fell to the ground.

As soon as Gu Ningping spoke, Gu Xiaoyi woke up, stuck his head out of the bed, and exclaimed excitedly, "Sister, brother!"

Gu Ningping had already got off the kang and was about to open the door. Gu Xiaoyi also got out of the bed and said, "Third brother, wait for me!"

Gu Ningping could only come back again, holding Gu Xiaoyi to the door again.

When she was going out, Gu Xiaowan looked at the courtyard door outside and felt so worried, so she told Gu Ningping to fasten the big house from the inside. Gu Xiaowan and Gu Ning'an listened to the cry of the two younger siblings inside, they looked at each other and smiled, their hearts felt warmer than ever before.

Gu Xiaowan put all the firewood in her hand into the small kitchen. When they came over, Gu Ningping had already put down the bolt from the inside, and the two walked into the big house together. After entering, Gu Xiaowan plugged the door again. Then he took the basket off Gu Ning'an's back, lowered his voice, and said happily, "Come here and see what sister and brother have found for you."

As soon as the words fell, Gu Ningping put on the shoes for Gu Xiaoyi, Gu Ningping rushed over first, and Gu Xiaowan followed behind.

Gu Ningping watched her sister remove the dry wood from the basket, and a fat rabbit looked around inside. Gu Ningping swallowed subconsciously and looked at Gu Xiaowan with admiration: "Sister, you are amazing."

Gu Xiaoyi threw himself down on Gu Xiaowan, leaned his head and looked at the lively rabbit in the basket, clapped his hands and smiled, "Sister is awesome, rabbit."

Gu Xiaowan happily kissed Gu Xiaoyi's face and said lovingly, "Sister will cook you rabbit meat later, okay?"

Gu Xiaoyi asked in a milky voice, "Sister, is rabbit meat delicious?" Gu Xiaoyi has only seen rabbits in other people's homes, and has never eaten rabbits.

In Gu Xiaowan's memory, it seemed that they had never eaten meat since their parents died. Every day is full and hungry, let alone meat, no oil

pass. Aside from the occasional help from Aunt Zhang, life was miserable.

Gu Ningping said happily: "Of course the meat is delicious."

"What does the meat taste like?" Gu Xiaoyi blinked his eyes, and said fascinatedly: "Is it delicious with white batter?" In Gu Xiaoyi's mind, the best food is white batter. Aunt Zhang sometimes looks at four The child is pitiful and will send a little white batter over. At that time, the three older children saved it and left it to Gu Xiaoyi to eat. In her memory, it was the best food Gu Xiaoyi had ever eaten.
