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

Almost as soon as Liu Shan's voice fell, Liu Yu also saw the cheerful gray hare grazing freely in the bushes.

"Shh... keep your voice down..."

Liu Yu glanced around her feet and saw that there were no sticks or anything like that, so she could only pick up a few pebbles scattered on the ground.

"Over there, there's another one over there." Liu Shan grabbed Liu Yu's sleeve, his voice trembling with excitement.

Liu Yu took a closer look and saw that there was indeed a hare of the same color in the dense grass. It was much more alert and kept lying there staring at a few people.

It seemed that as soon as they moved, it would immediately fly away.

It was unrealistic to ask Liu Maolin and others to come over to help at this time. The sound was too loud and they were afraid of scaring away the hare.

Several people held their breath and competed with the hare for endurance.

Maybe he thought they were harmless. After a stalemate for a while, the hare in the grass slowly began to relax its vigilance, lowered its head and slowly picked at the fresh green grass to eat.

Just when Liu Yu and the others were breathing a sigh of relief and preparing to discuss countermeasures, two hares jumped out and hurried towards the woods on the side.

Liu Yu reacted and hurriedly chased after them. The two hares ran very fast and were about to turn from the woods into another bush. Liu Yu squeezed the stones in her hand and threw them at the hares with all her strength.

When the first hare fell down instantly, Liu Yu did not look at the hare he had hit. Instead, he threw the stones in his hand at the hare that was about to enter the bushes later.

The gray hare's running pace stopped suddenly and fell one step away from the bushes.

"Wow, Brother Yu, you are really good, you are so accurate." Liu Zhou and Liu Yan chased from behind and saw two hares on the ground at a glance.

The two hurriedly ran over to pick up the hare and gave Liu Yu a thumbs up in admiration.

"Perhaps there was too much water in the past." Liu Yu was also a little surprised that she actually hit two hits with two shots.

Looking at the hares in Liu Shan and Liu Yan's hands, they couldn't help but laugh happily.

The three of them went to the stream to fetch water. It took such a long time. Liu Maolin was a little annoyed by the wait and was about to go and see for himself what these people were up to.

I saw three people walking over talking and laughing.

Liu Maolin was about to curse when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the hare in the hands of Liu Shan and Liu Yan. He was so surprised that he was speechless.

"Where did you catch rabbits? Rabbits are frightened at this time of year, so it's not easy to hunt them."

Liu Maolin couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and stretched out his hand towards Liu Shan Liu Yan who was coming over.

Liu Yan was about to speak, but Liu Shan beat him to it. After a burst of vivid narration, several people looked at Liu Yu with disbelief.

"Okay, Brother Yu, I really have you. Tomorrow I will teach you how to hunt rabbits." Liu Fan patted Liu Yu on the shoulder and said happily.

"Cough, cough!" Liu Maolin coughed twice and saw that everyone was looking at him.

He cleared his throat and said: "Ah Fan! From now on, brother Bieyu will call you. If Ayu inherits your second uncle's lintel and incense, then he will be able to stand up to the door just like you, Shanzi and Ayan." Those who set up a household will have their names changed in the future.”

Seeing Liu Maolin so solemn.

Liu Fan and others hurriedly covered up the joyful expressions on their faces and also responded solemnly.

Liu Yu's heart moved slightly, and she looked at her uncle with determination on her face: "Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely make life better and better, so that my grandpa and grandma can enjoy the blessings with me, so that my parents can rest assured even if they are in trouble."

"Okay, remember what you said today. If there is anything you can't resolve in the future, come and discuss it with your uncle." Liu Maolin looked at his nephew, who was much taller than himself, and felt a burst of pride in his heart.

"Haha, there is also Third Uncle." Liu Maoye also expressed his attitude cheerfully.

Xu Hong and Qi Chunhua couldn't help but curl their lips when they saw their man smiling happily.

Although Liu Yu was not their biological child, they had watched him grow up, and they saw that he now had to support a family.

I am proud but also a little distressed.

Pei Lan asked for ten bags of chestnuts, and several people worked non-stop until evening. Only after hitting all seven chestnut balls left was enough.

It is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down. Liu Yu carries two bags of chestnuts each, Liu Maoye and Liu Maolin each carry one bag, Liu Fan's three brothers also carry one bag each, Xu Hong, Qi Chunhua and Chen Jinmei divide the other three bags of chestnuts. Put it into the six backpacks on your back.

The three of them found it easier to walk with half of them carried on their backs and half hung in front of them.

Three pheasants and two hares were also put into one basket. If others could carry the chestnuts on their shoulders down the mountain, they would not be held back.

I really don’t have the energy to carry these wild animals on my back anymore.

In the end, Liu Yu took over and carried it behind her.

"Can you do it? If not, let's go back tomorrow and send him to Xiawuzui a day later." Liu Maolin's heart trembled as he looked at his nephew who was about to be overwhelmed by these things.

"I can do it, uncle. It's not a problem to come with so many people. I just have nowhere to hang up." It was already getting late, and it was going to be dark this time. Liu Yu didn't want to follow the uncle's ink, so she simply walked out first.

Liu Yu's steps were fast and steady, and his figure did not waver. Seeing that he was not forcing himself on, Liu Maolin felt relieved and felt that he was really old.

When he was young, he could carry a sack of grain without blushing or out of breath. Now, carrying such a sack of chestnuts is a little difficult for him.

The group of people walked, stopped and rested. It was getting dark when they were still on a mountain road from the bamboo forest.

There are many shadows in the forest, and under the darkness, even breaking a branch would be frightening.

The men were okay, and they would occasionally go up and down the mountain in disgrace, but the women were not good, as if their heartbeats were in their throats, for fear of something coming out of the weeds on both sides of the trail.

After all these thoughts, it wasn't until they set foot on a familiar mountain road that their minds finally settled.

After walking through the bamboo forest and turning a corner, we arrived home. The group didn't take any rest. Liu Yu took the lead as usual. After the Liu Mao forest broke, Liu Fan and Liu Shan picked some interesting things to talk about loudly to build up their courage.

After finally walking out of the bamboo forest and seeing the bean-like lights in the small courtyard, Xu Hong and the other women suddenly felt their legs and feet were sore and weak, and their shoulders and backs ached.

"Ah Yu, why are you back so late today?" The old lady was waiting outside the fence. When she saw someone approaching, she hurriedly greeted him.

"Well, ten bags of chestnuts took a long time." Liu Yu did not stop and walked straight back to the courtyard, unloading the things on her shoulders, and then hurriedly went out to unload the basket hanging on Xu Hong's shoulders.

"There are only a few steps left. Go help your sister-in-law unload the backpack. She is exhausted from the journey."

She and Qi Chunhua had done such hard and tiring work before, but Chen Jinmei didn't get tired and asked for a rest, which made her a little surprised.

The things on everyone's backs were unloaded, and Nian hurriedly asked people to wash their hands and eat.

"Let's eat here today. There's enough cereal and sweet potato slices for soup. Don't think it's a shabby meal."

As soon as Chen Jinmei arrived in the courtyard, she first looked for Goudan. When she saw Goudan holding a bowl and eating something, and his hands and face were clean under the light, she felt relieved and was in the mood to talk.

"I'm tired from the journey, and I was just thinking about having a bowl of sweet potato tea, but Grandma saved us from going back to start the fire."

"You guys can stay and eat. I think Tianyu has already cooked. Let's go home and eat." Xu Hong declined, looking at Liu Maolin, ready to leave at any time.

"You and Ayan go back, I'll eat here today." Liu Maolin waved his hand, indicating to Xu Hong to go back first.

Xu Hong ignored him and left with Liu Yan after saying goodbye to Liu Fusheng and Nian.

"Heck, heck, heck..."

The three pheasants were very quiet along the way. I don't know if they were obsessed with them or something happened, but now they started to cluck to make their presence felt.

"Ah! I caught a pheasant today." Nian stepped forward and picked up the basket on his back, full of surprise.

"Three pheasants, or two hares." Liu Shan said proudly, as if he had killed them all with his own hands.

"Grandma, apart from the two pheasants given to the master, we still have one pheasant and two hares, which can also be beaten as a tooth sacrifice." Liu Shan sipped his sweet potato slices soup and smacked his lips.

"Well, these wild animals should be sent to the master tomorrow." Nian thought for a while and then said.

"We can catch them later if we want to eat them. There are a lot of hares in the mountains, and you can always catch them if you look carefully." The old lady made the final decision regardless of Liu Shan's wails.
