Hard times have room

Chapter 362
Mainly because this time she caught three bamboo rats that were alive and kicking, but she couldn't tell the difference between male and female.

If the three males are given for free, they should be slaughtered and eaten directly, and they will definitely not be tossed.

If there are three females, you can toss and toss to see if you can change to a male.

Of course, among these three, it would be best if there are males and females.

The three bamboo rats were already in the basket, and Paulin didn't rush to leave, but found a lot of bamboo shoots on the spot. After breaking them, they all put them in the basket.

The bottom ones are supported, leave some space for them to avoid crushing the three cuties, and the top ones are more casual.

But I didn't pack a lot, just a small half-carried basket, so as not to have too much stuff in it and compact the bottom, as long as these three are dead, it will be a waste of time.

Paulin quietly walked to Dongmei who was pinching a bamboo rat and grinning wildly.

"Paulin, look, I caught one." Wang Dongmei said excitedly, raising the bamboo rat that was pinched tightly in her hand.

This one is not too small in her hand, she must have half a catty, it is indeed time to be happy, this is a small half catty of meat!
Now the poor bamboo rat was about to be strangled to death by her, with both hind legs kicking and kicking, if she didn't relax a little bit, the bamboo rat should die soon.

"That's right, you're quite fat." Bao Lin sighed as she looked at the fat bamboo rat in Dongmei's hand.

This group of bamboo rats eat very well, they are all fat, and they are really good, but now they are cheaper.

She remembered the three of her own, and two of them were about the same weight as the one in Dongmei's hand. They were also fat and stout when she was holding them. , but it doesn't get in the way, she doesn't have food at home, and there are a lot of bamboo shoots and leaves, so go straight to the bamboo mountain and smash it.

"Have you caught one?" At this time, Wang Dongmei also recovered from her excitement, looking at Bao Lin's empty hands, she asked hesitantly.

It seems that Paulin has not caught the bamboo rat, and she doesn't know if the words she just said will make Paulin feel sad!
"Well, I caught it too. Now you put the bamboo rat in the back basket and cover it with bamboo shoots or leaves. Let's go first." Paulin said softly beside Dongmei.

Everyone is so excited now that they are still catching those few bamboo rats that are running around. When they are almost caught, there may be more twists and turns when it comes to the end.

It was too late to feel happy for Bao Lin, and looking at the people beside her who were irritable and depressed, and whose mood swings were very large, Wang Dongmei nodded her head, listened to Bao Lin's words and did so, stretched her hands back, and the bamboo rat was placed on her back. in the backpack.

Paulin also squatted down and held a large piece of ashes of bamboo leaves, and put them in the Dongmei back basket, holding one or two. The two slowly retreated as they walked, and after a while, they retreated to the edge.

As soon as the two of them reached the edge, they walked down the mountain quickly. The two of them didn't stop all the way, let alone talk, and hurried home without stopping.

It's fine when we get to the house. Now the two of them are not very calm. The meat in the basket is full of meat!

At the fork in the road, the two naturally separated. This scene has happened too many times between the two, and they just left without saying goodbye.

Paulin went home in a turbulent mood. As soon as she got home and entered the main room, she took out the bamboo shoots in the basket and threw them aside, hoping that the three cuties in it would be okay.

She took out all the bamboo shoots and looked at the three bamboo rats biting at the tender bamboo shoots. Paulin nodded with satisfaction. Fortunately, at this time, her appetite was not bad. As for the grasp of feeding them, Paulin reiterated. bigger.

In the following time, Paulin didn't go anywhere, just stared at the three bamboo rats in the basket at home, feeding them some tender bamboo shoots from time to time.

These bamboo rats not only did not show anxiety or resistance, but instead gave Paulin a calm and comfortable feeling. They seemed very satisfied with the current life. Bamboo shoots were eaten when they were fed to their mouths. To tease them, they are not picky eaters, just eat what they give, and the long whiskers on their cheeks shake when they eat, which is very cute.

After a while, it felt like the time was almost up, Pauline left these three chubby cuties and went to the kitchen to cook.

The old way, sweet potato wild vegetable porridge, with a few small pickles, that's it, not bad, you must know that many people in the village have already stopped cooking at this time, so they pointed to the wild food in the mountains to fill their stomachs.

There are not many sweet potatoes at home now, and there is still a basket on the back. It will take more than a month to follow the previous progress. At that time, I will live on the food I saved before.

At this time, Pauline had already tried her best to save, but she couldn't bear the fact that the food at home was really low. This was still under the circumstance that she did not consume at home. If she continued to eat at home, the pressure at that time could be imagined.

There are still more than 20 catties of rice bought last year, as well as various types of beans, which add up to more than 30 catties, and a total of almost [-] catties of grain. They are still stored in the large tank under Baolin's room, and they will be picked up from time to time. Take it out and let it dry in the sun. It is still fine now, not bad at all. It is not usually hard to bite. It is not a problem to put it for half a year.

Of course, they won't really leave the food in it for so long. After a month or two, it will still be taken out for a good drying.

Now, without the grain preservation technology of later generations, we can only rely on the most primitive and easiest to obtain sun, plus our own industrious hands to preserve grain.

As soon as Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang pushed open the bamboo fence door, they saw blue smoke wafting from the top of the kitchen. They knew that Paulin had come home and was now cooking in the kitchen.

The two looked at each other and smiled comfortably. It's better for the girl to stay at home. As soon as they get home, the meal is ready. After eating, they sleep comfortably and then go to work in the afternoon. There are not too many things to worry about. After one or two o'clock, my daughter is at home, it's not an ordinary peace of mind!
But as soon as they got to the main room, the two of them saw the extremely conspicuous back basket placed in the middle position, and when they walked over, they were immediately stunned. There were three chubby bamboo rats inside.

what happened?

Who caught it?
Questions arose in the hearts of the two of them. The bamboo rat tasted good, but it was too hard to catch. This bite of meat was very unpalatable. How could there be three large bamboo rats in their house now? .

The two of them couldn't help thinking of another person in the family, Pauline. After all, the two of them were basically inseparable all day, and they really knew who did it or not.
