After transmigrating into the body of the female supporting character's biological mother, she

But soon, something else caught his attention.

Lin Zhilan pulled him back, shushed him, and then took out a slingshot from her small bag.

Li Xuan's eyes widened as he watched her pick up a pebble from the ground, then quickly pull back her slingshot and shoot it at the tree.

With a "whoosh," a flock of birds flew away from the tall trees not far away, and something fell from the trees.

"It must have hit again!"

Wang Rou's voice trembled with delight. She pulled the dumbfounded Li Xuan forward, grabbed a bird from the grass, and exclaimed with a smile, "This one's plump!"

Lin Zhilan smiled too.

Her space was somewhat useless; it had to be cultivated by herself to be useful. No one else could enter, and as a single person, she could only use it to grow medicinal herbs and occasionally some vegetables she wanted to eat.

Lin Zhilan originally thought that the Spirit Spring was also useless, having no other purpose than making people more beautiful.

But she gradually discovered that as time went on, her strength increased and even her five senses became more acute.

Hunting birds with a slingshot is a piece of cake for her; otherwise, she wouldn't dare to take Wang Rou into the mountains alone so often.

This move completely stunned Li Xuan, who had never seen much of the world.

His eyes seemed to be shining when he looked at Lin Zhilan, and in that way, he did look somewhat like Wang Rou.

Lin Zhilan laughed and said, "This one isn't enough; there are so many more children."

There are too many people today, so Lin Zhilan doesn't plan to go into the mountains.

Instead, it stopped on a flat area at the foot of the mountain.

Jiang Chengzhou saw the plump bird in Li Xuan's hand and excitedly ran over, "How did you catch that?"

Li Xuan glanced at Lin Zhilan, "Aunt Lin shot it down with a slingshot."

"Auntie!"

Lin Zhilan covered her ears. "Jiang Chengzhou, you're going to make my ears go deaf."

"Auntie, Auntie!" Jiang Chengzhou jumped up and down excitedly, "I want to learn how to use a slingshot too!"

"Alright, alright, come with me."

Lin Zhilan gestured for the children to be quiet, then found a tree.

Several sparrows were hopping around among the branches.

Lin Zhilan picked up a slightly rounded pebble from the ground and put it in the slingshot pouch.

The children instantly held their breath and froze.

With a "whoosh," the stone shot through the air.

Soon, a sparrow landed in response, fluttering its wings and falling into the grass.

"Wow!"

The children gasped and rushed over.

Jiang Chengzhou was the first to rush over and retrieve the sparrow.

"Auntie! I want to try too!"

Lin Zhilan held the slingshot above her head, meeting the children's gazes, and said, "Everyone can play, but you must follow the rules. You can't shoot at people, understand?"

"clear!"

Lin Zhilan shot a few more birds before giving them the slingshot.

Jiang Chengzhou said, "My younger sister is the youngest, let her play first."

No one else had any objections.

But Linlin didn't know how to play at all. She had just joined in the fun with her brothers, played with the slingshot in her hand for a moment, and then immediately lost interest and gave it back to her brother.

If she doesn't play, then only three boys will be left.

Yan Yuan had played with it once, carefully observed the structure of the slingshot, and then gave it to them to play with Linlin.

He was worried about Linlin, who was too young.

Li Xuan gave him a strange look and continued to take turns playing with the slingshot with Jiang Chengzhou.

Linlin is very good at entertaining herself. If her brother doesn't play with her, she will go pick flowers by herself.

Yan Yuan was very skillful; he wove a wreath for her out of vines and taught her how to put small flowers into it.

After a while, Linlin put on a flower wreath and went to present the treasure to her mother.

Lin Zhilan had just returned from cleaning up the game by the stream when she saw her daughter wearing a flower wreath on her head, with pale yellow flowers adorning it, making the little girl look like a flower fairy.

"It's so beautiful," Lin Zhilan said with a smile. "Who made it for you?"

"Brother Yan Yuan." Linlin raised her little hand and touched the flower wreath on her head. Her gaze was drawn to her little hand, which was also adorned with two small flower wreaths.

"You still have some in your hand, they're so beautiful."

"Yes," Linlin praised without reservation, "Brother Yan Yuan is awesome."

"Baby is right."

Among the three boys of the same age, perhaps because they were all without parents, Yan Yuan was actually the most mature.

Li Xuan tends to keep things to himself, while Yan Yuan is more thoughtful and always considerate of others.

Jiang Chengzhou loves his younger sister very much, but he is playful and sometimes forgets about Linlin while playing.

But Yan Yuan always puts taking care of his younger sister first. Lin Zhilan sometimes even thinks that he treats Jiang Chengzhou and Li Xuan as his younger brothers as well.

Lin Zhilan smiled and said, "Xiao Yuan, why don't you go and play with them?"

Yan Yuan shook his head, took out a flower wreath from behind his back and handed it to her, "Auntie, this is for you."

"Auntie has something on her hands, can you help me put it on?" Lin Zhilan squatted down and gestured for him to help her put it on.

Yan Yuan blushed slightly and gently placed the flower wreath on her head.

"Mom is beautiful, just like me!" Little Linlin clapped her hands happily.

Yan Yuan's lips curled up in a smile.

Wang Rou didn't react much at first, and she wasn't familiar with Yan Yuan, but his expression just now was somewhat similar to Li Xuan's, so she couldn't help but glance at him a few more times.

Yan Yuan met her gaze. "Does Aunt Wang want one too?"

He is braver and more outgoing than Li Xuan.

Wang Rou asked, "Is that alright?"

"Okay," Yan Yuan nodded, "I'll be done in no time."

By the time Jiang Chengzhou and Li Xuan returned, Yan Yuan had won the hearts of all the girls.

Wang Rou had just gathered some firewood. Lin Zhilan broke off a few branches, whittled them with a knife, strung the prey together, and tied them together with vines, so they could be placed on the rack to roast.

When he turned back, Yan Yuan had already started the fire.

"Xiao Yuan..."

"Hmm?" Yan Yuan looked up in confusion.

Lin Zhilan wanted to suggest he come over and play, but then she thought that might be his personality, so she changed her question to, "Did you used to go up the mountain to play?"

"I will go up the mountain to chop firewood with my grandfather."

"you are awesome."

Parents nowadays are not used to praising their children. Instead, they often praise other people's children while belittling their own.

Lin Zhilan's direct expression caught Yan Yuan off guard.

Fortunately, we still have our precious Linlin.

She grabbed her mother's trouser leg and asked, "Mom, am I great?"

"You're great too."

"Hehe," Linlin grabbed Yan Yuan's hand and shook it, "Brother Yan, we're both great!"

Yan Yuan blushed at her words and hurriedly left, saying, "I'll go gather some more firewood."

He ran away, and Linlin was a little confused. She looked down and touched the little flower in her hand.

If the firewood is just started and the fire is too strong, the meat will easily burn.

Lin Zhilan used the fire as a peg to extinguish the flames.

Then they buried a few sweet potatoes and corn with hot ash.

As the aroma of meat gradually spread, Jiang Chengzhou was drawn over, but Li Xuan continued playing with his slingshot until Wang Rou called him back.
