A poor peasant girl: Farming with a baby and abusing her husband

This time, Liu Zhuo escorted Yan Shu and his daughter back alone.

The weather in early spring has turned cold and warm.

When Yan Shu walked to the Guangu of Wuliang Mountain this time, she remembered that she and Feng Zhen'er had encountered bandits here years ago. If Hu Fei hadn't appeared in time, he might have changed his mind by now.

"Brother Hu and Zhen'er have been back for so long, who knew so many things would happen to us in Kyoto."

Yan Shu couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the green buds outside the car.

Liu Zhuo turned around and looked at Yan Shu tenderly:

"Fortunately, you are still safe and sound. Everything that happened will make us appreciate the beauty in front of us even more."

Liu Zhuo was right. Yan Shu traveled to ancient times and went from being a loner to having so many friends now. At least her life was a little rough.

"Mom, I'm so hungry and want to eat!"

Yaya rested her head on Yan Shu's thigh and pulled Yan Shu's sleeves coquettishly.

"Come on, be good, let's eat some solid food first, and then we'll eat when we get to the inn."

Yaya shook her head.

"Child, what do you want to eat?"

After hearing this, Liu Zhuo drove his carriage and slowly stopped by the valley.

He handed the kettle to Yan Shu and said:

"Maybe the child is tired and thirsty because he has been traveling all the time. Drink some water first!"

Yan Shu pulled Yaya out of the car.

Yaya looked sick, but it made Yan Shu feel bad.

Liu Zhuo squatted by the water and washed his hands. He looked at something that seemed to be swimming near the rocks not far away.

"Sister, look! Is there a big fish on that stone?"

When Yaya heard that there were fishes in the river, she stopped dozing off and immediately became energetic.

Yan Shu also walked towards the water and looked in the direction Liu Zhuo pointed.

A big white fish did appear on the edge of some big rocks.

"Mom, we can catch and eat grilled fish. I still remember that the fish my mother caught by the river last time was so delicious when grilled!"

After Yaya said this, both Yan Shu and Liu Zhuo remembered the happy scene of catching fish and shrimp in Huaishu Village.

"What's the problem? Uncle Liu will catch a big one for Yaya this time!"

As he spoke, Liu Zhuo gently drew out his sword.

"Oh, you can't catch the fish like this. It will run away before you get close."

Yan Shu said, motioning for him to wait a moment.

Liu Zhuo thought that catching a fish was not easy. He was so good at it and it was just a small skill.

Only Yan Shu herself knew that she had a spell that could paralyze animals. As long as she used it, those animals would all turn into stupid lambs ready to be slaughtered.

Yan Shu seemed to read a few words casually, and the big fish swam towards the shore in a daze.

Liu Zhuo thought this was so amazing. He hit the fish with his sword when it reached the water's edge, and the whole fish was brought out of the water.

"Wow, what a big fish! Uncle Liu is as good at catching fish as my mother!"

When Liu Zhuo was praised by a child, he immediately felt a sense of accomplishment.

Liu Zhuo looked at Yan Shu:

"The fish has been caught, but I don't know how to make it delicious. I'd better ask my sister to cook it!"

Yan Shu: "That's no problem at all. Just wait for the delicious grilled fish in a while."

Yan Shu took the fish, briefly cleaned the internal organs, and then went to find some wild vegetables, wild onions and other natural spices nearby.

In this early spring weather, the wild apricots by the river have begun to bloom with pink flowers, and the weeds on the ground are also revealing their green buds.

The entire valley was fresh and natural. Yan Shu thought that it would be great if she could live in seclusion here forever. It would be like living a fairy-like life.

Under a big tree, she found several wild onions that had just sprouted.

"Amitabha, although you have just emerged, please forgive me for picking you today."

When Liu Zhuo heard that Yan Shu was so thoughtful towards Xiaocao, he smiled and said:

"I didn't expect that my sister is a person who loves all things!"

Yan Shu was digging hard and said without looking back:

"Please take down the treasure box from my car. It will be useful for grilling fish later!"

Liu Zhuo saw that it was just an ordinary wooden box, so he had no idea what goodies her treasure box contained!

By the time Yan Shu finished washing the wild vegetables, Liu Zhuo had already lit the fire.

Yaya excitedly picked up dry branches everywhere by the river to burn.

"This fish weighs five or six kilograms. The three of us will definitely be unable to finish it!"

Yan Shu flipped the big fish with satisfaction and inserted the wild onions into the fish's mouth and belly.

Then she opened the wooden box that was taken from the car.

Liu Zhuo was shocked by what was in the box:

"You, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and dozens of seasonings, the spices are neatly stacked together."

"Sister, you brought a mobile kitchen!"

Yan Shu smiled:

"These are called local specialties. When I go to a place, I want to take some of the local products back to my hometown! Besides, I'm tired of eating wild game without salt!"

After saying that, she began to coat the fish with salt, chili powder, sea pepper powder and other spices.

Finally, it was given to Liu Zhuo to tie up a branch and put it on the fire to roast.

The three of them sat on the floor, watching the fish on the fire gradually shrink and release juice, and then the aroma of the fish mixed with spices began to fill up!

"Wow, it smells so good. I haven't tasted such delicious game in a long time. Mom's cooking is the best!"

Yaya likes to live this kind of free pastoral life with her mother, although she has seen many big scenes in Kyoto this time.

But she didn't feel comfortable at all, not as relaxed and happy as she was with her mother in Huaishu Village!

"Our little girl is very good at flattering, but I also think your mother's food is delicious."

Liu Zhuo grabbed Yaya's little face.

Yan Shu picked a few wild vegetable leaves and spread them by the fire.

Finally, she sprinkled a little cumin powder on the grilled fish, and the smell of meat filled the air.

Liu Zhuo divided the fish into small pieces and placed them on the blade. The oil was sizzling and steaming!

While several people were enjoying their meal, they heard a sound in the dense bush not far away.

"There seems to be someone inside!" Yaya's innocent voice didn't sound like she was lying.

Liu Zhuo immediately stopped the fish in his hands.

He still kept his sword in his hand, carrying it behind his back and approaching quietly.

Yan Shu hugged Yaya and stared at the grass attentively.

After Liu Zhuo approached, he cut away the grass with two knives at lightning speed.

"It's weird, there's nothing!"

The grass beside the valley is very dense because it is moistened by the stream all year round, so even if someone is in the grass, it is not easy to detect.

Yan Shu and Yaya also felt strange, so they followed over to have a look.

"Look, this piece of grass has been trampled to the ground. It looks like it was stepped on or pressed out by something for a long time."

Yan Shu analyzed it while pulling at the grass.

Liu Zhuo: "Sister's analysis makes sense, but there are ferocious beasts in Wuliang Mountain all year round. This is a time of drought, and it is inevitable that they will go crazy and hurt people. I think we should finish our food as soon as possible and hit the road!"

Liu Zhuo's words were so frightening that Yaya hugged Yan Shu.

"Okay, Yaya, don't be afraid. Uncle Liu and I are here!"

Yaya pulled Yan Shu's collar hard.

Yan Shu felt that this child was so abnormal today!

She looked down at Yaya. Yaya closed her eyes, pointed to the place where she was eating fish with her other hand, and said in her mouth:

"Strange...monster!"
