Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Liu Yu happily stepped on the chestnut with her feet and admired Liu Shan's somewhat embarrassed expression.

Unexpectedly, no matter how thick-skinned a person is, he would be a little shy as long as he faces his own marriage.

"I won't talk to you about this anymore. I'm going to see if I caught a pheasant in the trap I made yesterday." Liu Shan was annoyed by these people's teasing remarks, so he simply dropped the basket and ran to yesterday's camp. Digging trap in the bush.

Seeing that the real owner had run away, several people were not interested in talking anymore, so they all focused on picking up the walnuts.

"This year's chestnuts are growing well, and they taste sweet and crispy." Liu Yu peeled off a chestnut, tasted the flavor, and commented.

"There's nothing bad in our mountain, so give me a taste."

As soon as Liu Fan finished speaking, he heard an "Ah!" from the bushes.

"What's going on?" Liu Maoye hurriedly ran over there, and Liu Yu also hurriedly followed.

"Chicken, it's a pheasant. I caught a pheasant."

Before the others arrived, they saw Liu Shan grabbing a grey-brown pheasant with long tail feathers and turning out from behind the bushes with shining eyes.

"Yeah, it's really a pheasant. It must weigh four or five kilograms."

The pheasant in Liu Shan's hand was not obedient and flapped its wings desperately, trying to break free.

Liu Yu took out a strip of cloth from her body to tie the mouth of the bag and handed it to Liu Shan, asking him to tie it up so that they wouldn't accidentally run away later.

Because they had caught a pheasant, the next few people worked more energetically. After Liu Yu peeled off all the chestnut balls and put away the chestnuts, he continued his work from yesterday, removing the green shells from the walnuts.

There were more walnuts beaten today than yesterday, and the green shells were more broken and cracked.

Liuyu only needs to peel off the outer layer of green shells, and only when she encounters unbroken ones, she needs to put in some effort to crush the green shells.

Several people picked up the fallen walnuts and piled them in one place. Each person found a stone and brought it over, and began to peel the green shells together.

In order to save time, several people picked the ones that were easy to grill and threw the ones with intact green shells to Liu Yu.

This time I finished and packed the bags half an hour earlier than yesterday. I exchanged the dry food I brought from home and used the water I brought to moisten my mouth.

Then he started packing his pockets and getting ready to go home.

"You guys wait for me for a while, I'll go look for some mushrooms. This pheasant has to be stewed with mushrooms to make it taste good." After speaking, Liu Shan jumped up to the walnut tree and started picking oyster mushrooms.

He glanced back and forth but couldn't see anything that satisfied him. Either this one was too old and not smooth and tender, or that one was too high and he couldn't reach it.

"Third brother, don't just stare at the trees. There are also rotten leaves. You should also poop a few times." Liu Yu looked at the Liushan monkey with black lines on his head, tossing from tree to tree. .

"You can also help Third Brother look for it. This pheasant soup is the most fragrant and nourishing. When the time comes, it will be cooked and you will have a bowl."

Liu Shan was very persuaded, jumped down from the tree, found a stick, and started digging in the rotten leaves.

When Liu Yu heard that pheasant soup was nourishing, she was a little moved. Even if it was not as exaggerated as Liu Shan boasted, drinking a bowl of broth would still nourish people.

Then he stood up neatly, took the bamboo stick he brought and started looking for mushrooms around him.

"Ah Shan, I'll help you find the mushrooms too. When your soup is ready, just share a bowl with me." Liu Yan chuckled and joined in.

Nourishing is good, Tianyu now has twin bodies, it is the time when nourishing is needed.

"Okay, it will be cooked by then, and the family will give you a bowl of broth." Liu Shan said weakly.

After a few people worked for a while, they found about five or six kilograms of fungi.

Slippery mushrooms, egg mushrooms, red mushrooms, and some fresh oyster mushrooms.

After loading the mushrooms, a few people took a short break, then picked up the walnuts and started going down the mountain.

Liu Yu carried the basket containing chestnuts and mushrooms on her back, and carried two more bags on her left and right shoulders.

The extra bag was originally meant to be lifted with the two people's free hands, but it was difficult to hold the bag while carrying such heavy walnuts.

Finally, I simply untied my pockets and packed some of the baskets everyone brought with me so that we could go down the mountain more easily.

Several people carried their packs on their shoulders and rested several times on the way. When they arrived at the bamboo forest, it was already getting dark.

After walking through the bamboo forest and reaching the foot of the mountain, the sky became darker and darker. Fortunately, we turned around this path and reached Liu Yu's house.

"Grandma, we're back." Liu Yu stepped into the courtyard first and greeted grandpa and grandma who were busy in the kitchen.

"Wow, it smells so good, Grandma, what delicious food have you made?" Liu Shan shouted as soon as he entered the courtyard.

Smelling the rich aroma of meat, several people felt more and more hungry because of the energy consumed by traveling on the mountain road.

"Go, you are the only one with a good nose and nothing." Nian closed the lid of the outer pot.

"I saw it. It's probably the pig's trotters stuffed with soybeans. Grandma's craftsmanship is better, but my mother can't make it such a bright red color. It must have lost its juice."

There was a dim oil lamp burning on the stove, casting an erratic light in the water vapor. Liu Shan's eyesight was very good, and at a quick glance he saw the aroma of braised pig's trotters in the pot.

"Grrrr! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..."

"What's the sound? It sounds like a chicken crows!"

The old lady looked at the basket behind Liu Shan suspiciously.

"The trap I dug yesterday caught a chicken. It's a good one." Liu Shan took the chicken out of the basket behind him like he was offering a treasure.

The pheasant had its two claws and wings tied, but it was still struggling and clucking in Liu Shan's hands.

"Hey, our Ah Shan is so capable, this chicken looks quite serious." The old lady squinted her eyes and looked carefully, giving a thumbs up to this capable third grandson, and the lines at the corners of her eyes became more and more wrinkled with joy.

Liu Shan proudly told the weight of the pheasant and showed off the mushroom stewed chicken he was about to make.

Liu Fusheng looked at the old woman who was looking at her grandson with a smile, and looked over with some sympathy.

"Ah Shan, do you want to eat the braised pig's trotters cooked by Ah Nai?" The old lady opened the lid of the pot, and a strong aroma of meat hit her face, which caught people off guard.

"I want to eat it." Liu Shan deeply smelled the aroma of the meat and looked at the thick soup in the pot. The pig's trotters and soybeans were covered with a layer of oily sauce. Just by looking at it, he could tell how soft and delicious it was in the mouth. .

"Brother Yu paid for this to replenish his health. Grandma can't give it to you for free. How about you keep this pheasant, and Grandma can give you two pieces of it."

The old lady scooped up two pieces of burnt pig's trotters and asked Liu Shan to take a closer look.

When Liu Yu and the others poured the walnuts they carried back into the bamboo basket and came out, Liu Shan had a bowl of braised pig's trotters in his hands.

His precious pheasant, which was originally in the basket on his back, was now in the hands of Liu Fusheng, who was cooking the pot.

"Okay, let's go back to eat. The family should be waiting in a hurry." After that, he took out another bowl, shoveled two pieces of pig's trotters from the pot and put them in. He also put in a shovelful of soybeans and handed them to Liu Yan.

"Take it home and make it up for your wife. She has been sewing clothes for Changsheng these past few days, and she has worked hard to keep her belly full."

After speaking, Nian glanced at Liu Maoye and Liu Fan Liushan who were standing aside.

"Thank you, grandma." Liu Yan rubbed his hands and took it with some embarrassment.

"Let's all go back and make chicken stew tomorrow. Let Brother Yu give you a bowl of chicken soup at each house." After that, he looked at Liu Shan: "Keep the mushrooms, just enough to add flavor when stewing the soup.

Before they went out, Liu Yu asked a few more people to come over after dinner.

Discuss how to distribute and fry the walnuts, and when to pull them out and sell them. One person will calculate the shortcomings, and two will calculate the longs. We will discuss and come up with a charter.
