Traveling into the 1980s: A Cannon Fodder Female Supporter's Guide to Self-Rescue

Chapter 33 It’s not worth the risk
Su Huijuan was still very happy after eating the meat buns, so she simply stopped saying those words that dampened her daughter's enthusiasm.

But I have to warn you next time, those wild ginsengs are rarely seen and some grow in high and steep places.

It's not worth risking that much money.

As a result, she found that she had been relieved too early, and her daughter was simply as high-spirited as the sky.

Because Su Huijuan heard her stinky girl say again: "If I have a chance, I will catch a pheasant and come back to make chicken soup for my mother."

Su Huijuan was too lazy to roll her eyes. Why did she feel that her former daughter was too taciturn and didn't like to talk, so it looked bad on her?
The girl's family should be quiet and shy. Day after day, they either dig wild ginseng or catch pheasants.

I don’t know, I thought it was a savage coming from somewhere.

Su Huijuan thought her daughter was joking, but it turned out that she had misjudged Jiang Tang's determination and underestimated her ability.

True to his word, Jiang Tang went up the mountain again the next day, first going to the place where he dug wild ginseng last time.

The remaining small wild ginsengs are growing well, because they know that the system has requirements for collecting different types of medicinal materials, which makes Jiang Tang know that the system can detect nearby animals and plants.

So she made a grand request:

[Xiaojiu, help me see where there are pheasants around here? 】

[Self-rescue system: Host, who are you looking down on? If there were still pheasants on this mountain and everyone nearby would have been captured long ago, would it be your turn, host? 】

Jiang Tang was speechless as he was rarely given a slap in the face by his own system.

She was stupid. People these days are so short of meat. All the wild animals they can catch have already entered their stomachs.

The game on the mountain is collectively owned by the brigade, and big things must be brought to the brigade leader to share with the team members.

But when everyone encountered some small wild vegetables, fruits, pheasants, hares, etc., they silently took them home and ate them.

This is a tacit understanding and a recognized secret, but no one will specifically talk about it.

Fortunately, I didn't find anything in my search. In addition to mushrooms, I also dug up wild ginger, wild fungus, etc.

Jiang Tang also picked them all, put them under the backpack, and took them back to make dry goods, whether you keep them for yourself or go out to trade.

As for the pheasants that could not be caught, Jiang Tang looked around and saw that everyone was at work right now, even the old, weak, women and children picking mushrooms.

She simply entered the system space with her eyes closed and took out a pheasant weighing about two and a half kilograms that she had bought before.

But it was inconvenient to take out the killed pheasant, and she couldn't let the chicken's crow alert others.

All we can do is cruelly break the chicken's neck!
Of course, it wasn't just pheasants that came to such a trip. Jiang Tang also picked some medicinal herbs, and paid special attention to the ones that were not so common.

All went smoothly, and they were all included in the system and gained a lot of points.

When she returned home, she saw her old mother with a worried look on her face.

"You disappeared when I got up while I was taking a nap. Are you really going to catch pheasants?" Su Huijuan said in a disapproving tone.

But now that my daughter has lost her temper, even adults are stubborn, so there is nothing she can do if she doesn't listen to advice.

"Mom, I'll go and come back. It'll be okay."

With a smile on his face, Jiang Tang took Su Huijuan's hand and entered the kitchen.

Then he took out everything in the basket at once, including pheasants, mushrooms, wild ginger and fungus, they were all good things.

"Wow, so many?" Su Huijuan couldn't help but reacted immediately.

He glared at his daughter angrily, "Did you run inside?"

"No, mother, it's really just my luck." Jiang Tang explained carefully: "The forest in that area is relatively dark, so few people go in."

I don't know if Su Huijuan believed it or not, but she looked at the pheasant on the ground and was speechless for a moment.

There really was a pheasant, and its neck was directly broken.For a moment, I was pleased with my daughter's ability, so that she could survive even if I was gone;

After a while, I started to worry again. Look, does this girl still look like a girl?

Catching a pheasant and breaking its neck?

"Mom, let's eat the pheasant tonight, but we can't give it to my aunt or other people."

After all, this thing is unusual. It's hard to tell when you take it out. Jiang Tang was also careful when he took it home just now.

Su Huijuan knew more about the truth than her daughter, but her mood was still complicated.

In the end, he didn't say anything and silently started to tidy up the chicken.

In the past, these jobs were all done by the men in the family, and neither of them had ever done these things.

But even so, after working hard all year long, it was hard to kill a chicken during the Chinese New Year.

Jiang Laosan finally grabbed a bowl of chicken soup and wanted to share it with his wife and children, but his mother scolded her to death. In short, under the favor of her parents-in-law these years, it is impossible for her, a useless daughter-in-law who has not given birth to a son, to eat it. It deserves chicken.

Now, the man is gone, but it is the girl who everyone thinks is a loser who catches the pheasant for her.

Su Huijuan felt like crying again, but she didn't want to worry her daughter, so she endured it.

But he still warned seriously: "Don't go into the mountains. If you are in danger, it will be too late to regret."

Why did her mother bring the topic back here again?
As a result, Su Huijuan was still watching, waiting for her daughter to answer.

Helpless, Jiang Tang had no choice but to think of words: "Mom, I didn't catch this chicken. Do you think I have the ability to kill a chicken?"

She blinked and tried to look more sincere: "I was lucky. The pheasant was dead when I found it. I just picked it up."

These words sounded bizarre, but Su Huijuan didn't have much doubt. Mainly, she didn't think that her daughter could break the neck of a chicken casually.

Furthermore, pheasants generally run very fast and are difficult to catch.

Before she could take a breath, her heart was lifted by her daughter's words again:

"Mom, do you think if I make a trap on the mountain, can I catch a few more pheasants?"

It’s really whimsical, but forget it, let your child try it if she wants to.

However, Su Huijuan still warned her earnestly: "Then you have to be careful, especially when you take it back, hide it tightly so that no one sees it.

Although it is said that these little game animals do not need to be handed over, people's hearts are like this, and they cannot be prepared for someone to gossip behind their backs. "

This is meat, who wouldn’t be jealous?

And who knows what people can do when driven by jealousy.

"Well, mother, I see."

More than half an hour later, Jiang Tang had helped her mother to take care of the pheasant. After removing the fur, the remaining pheasant was less than two kilograms.

But for two people, it was a lot.

"Mom, let's use half the chicken to make soup, and let's eat the remaining half tomorrow."

"Okay, I have carrots at home, and some of the mushrooms and fungus you brought back are still fresh.

There is only one pot at home for stewing soup, so it is inconvenient for cooking.

Su Huijuan is skillful and can roll out the noodles in a short time. Then it will be better to eat the fragrant chicken noodle soup.

This dinner can be said to be the happiest meal Su Huijuan has had in more than ten years.
