Chen Guangzong did not build a house properly in the area designated for his own family.

Whenever he had time, he would bring his wife and granddaughter to Zhao Chen's door.

"Oh, sister, where are you going? It's no good for my son to be so unsuccessful. He has to take care of things on his own at such an old age."

"Unlike my son, who went to the capital to become a high-ranking official."

Zhao Chen was really too lazy to pay attention to her younger brother, so she simply went back to the house to ask Wen Qingliu if he had any good ideas.

"Mom, if he doesn't build a good house, he'll freeze to death in the winter."

"Stop thinking about him. I have a pot of bean sprouts growing. Come and see it, mom."

Zhao Chen followed with some doubts.

What are bean sprouts? She had never heard of them.

Looking at the basin full of things that looked like insects, Zhao Chen was a little surprised.

"Is this...can I eat this?"

Wen Qingliu nodded confidently and said, "I will stir-fry bean sprouts tonight, mother, you can try them then."

Zhao Chen couldn't bear to destroy Wen Qingliu's self-confidence, so she nodded and forced a smile.

"Wen girl, is Wen girl at home?"

Wen Qingliu looked in the direction of the voice and saw the third sister-in-law's mother walked in anxiously.

Hearing the familiar voice, it was naturally impossible for Cui to continue sitting in the house.

"Mom, why are you here?"

When she saw her daughter, she pretended to be calm.

"I came to see your fourth brother's wife because I wanted to show him when your disappointing brother can bring back a wife."

Wen Qingliu did not expose her, but nodded and agreed.

"Third sister-in-law, I'll go over and take a look first. Wen Zhu, come with me and throw him back."

Although she didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that he she was talking about.

It’s Chen Guangzong.

Wen Zhu responded and strode out behind Wen Qingliu.

Seeing someone else coming out of the room, Chen Guangzong walked over slowly with his hands behind his back, ready to cause trouble.

Wen Qingliu was not as soft-hearted as Zhao Chenshi, and saw him coming over.

He immediately gave Wen Zhu a look, and Wen Zhu understood.

He touched the ground with his toes and jumped lightly to Chen Guangzong's side.

Before the latter could react, he was grabbed by the scruff of the neck and thrown into the air back to his home.

Soon, Wen Zhu came back.

Aunt Cui was so anxious that she almost knelt down to Wen Zhu.

"Wen Zhu, please save your tree."

Wen Qingliu supported her from the side, comforting her softly.

"Aunt Cui, don't be impatient, speak slowly."

"He went up the mountain just after daybreak this morning, saying he wanted to see if he could catch any prey."

"He said this is New Mountain and he has never been inside. He will definitely be back in less than two hours."

"But it's almost noon now and he hasn't come back yet."

Her voice was choked with sobs. Wen Qingliu raised his hand, counted with his fingers, and patted her shoulder.

"Don't worry, Auntie. Uncle Cui is fine. Maybe he just encountered a difficult prey and had to deal with it for a while longer."

"I'm going up the mountain with Wenzhu to take a look. Don't worry. Go home first."

She didn't want to leave, but she knew that even if he followed her, he wouldn't be able to help.

And so she walked away, looking back every few steps.

The two went to the mountain, and Wen Qingliu kept turning the compass in his hand.

Following the direction indicated by the compass, the two of them walked over.

I saw Cui Ye crawling in the grass in a strange posture.

There were a lot of prey lying around, too weak to struggle, including two fat pheasants, some pheasant eggs, and three wild rabbits.

"Why are you here? Come here and lie down."

The two of them lay down beside him very obediently.

Following the gap in the grass, I saw a wild goat standing there.

He was eating grass with his head down and grunting.

If you look closely, you can see that the goat's belly is slightly sagging.

It looks like a ewe with a lamb in her belly.

Cui Ye sighed. They, the hunters, also have their own hunting rules.

One of them is that pregnant female animals cannot be killed.

Wen Qingliu was a little envious when he saw it.

She thought of one of her favorite foods in her previous life, mutton hotpot.

Cui Ye stood up with his things in his hand and whispered to the two of them, "Let's go."

Before leaving, she threw a positioning talisman onto the sheep.

When the ewe gives birth, the lambs will grow up and you can catch them together to make mutton hotpot.

And although she only saw one sheep, she felt that this sheep should not be a solitary creature.

After a few days, she will follow the locator to the mountain to take a look.

I just regret that there are no mobile phones and Internet in this era.

Otherwise, she would let her seventh junior brother live on this hill and raise sheep for her.

Among all his fellow brothers and sisters, the Seventh Junior Brother is the one who has the best affinity with animals.

I still remember that once my master threw me into Huangshan Mountain.

When it encountered a snake in the middle of the night, it didn't even look at the Seventh Junior Brother, but crawled straight towards his senior brothers and sisters.

But at that time, several of his senior brothers and sisters had practiced the turtle breathing technique much better than him.

So much so that she was the only one who was actually chased and bitten by the snake at that time.

She thought that even her seventh junior brother had mastered the Turtle Breathing Technique better than her.

So after that incident, Wen Qingliu locked himself in the room and practiced the turtle breathing technique day and night.

Later I found out that it was not that Seventh Junior Brother was good at the Turtle Breathing Technique, but he had always been close to animals since he was a child.

It was not until she came down the mountain and saw Cui Ye that Aunt Cui finally felt relieved.

Wen Qingliu brought the person back safely and took a look at Cui Lang.

Then, she was going to take Wen Zhu back.

"Wait a minute, Wen girl, take this chicken and these two rabbits back."

"Lulu is pregnant and has a hard time. Please take care of her."

Wen Qingliu didn't bother to be polite with him and took the prey.

"Don't worry, uncle. I treat my third sister-in-law as my own sister."

When Wen Qingliu returned home, Cui Lu came up to him curiously.

Seeing that she was holding the prey in her hands, Cui ran to the side and retched a few times.

Wen Qingliu hurriedly put the unconscious prey in a bucket in the kitchen.

"Third sister-in-law, are you okay?"

"Ugh, I didn't... ugh."

After retching for a long time, until he recovered, Cui pulled Wen Qingliu to sit down.

"How is Cui Lang's marriage going?"

Wen Qingliu nodded in a solemn manner, and only spoke after Cui slapped her lightly.

"He should have a girl he likes, but I don't know how far the relationship has developed."

"Who knows, maybe Uncle Cui and Aunt Cui don't have to worry at all. It's possible that the boy has already caught up with the girl."

With Cui Lang's carefree personality, it's not easy for him to find a girl he likes.

After Wen Qingliu told her all these things, he continued to grind the beans and press the tofu.

It was not until the evening before that all the pots of soaked beans were ground.

Then she washed the bean sprouts and made a stir-fried bean sprout dish.
