Lucky

After accepting the task of cooking, Gu Nian began to shout outside. "Third Brother, Third Brother, come and help me start the fire.

"There's no need for your third brother. I will start the fire for you." As Mrs. Jiang said, she sat in the back and started to light the fire. She didn't forget to remind Gu Nian, "You're still young. If there's anything you can't do, just tell me. Don't force yourself, understand? "

It did not matter if Gu Nian did not know how to cook, but it would be bad if she was scalded.

Before Gu Nian could reply, Lin Sanshui shouted from outside, "Mother, come here now!"

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Jiang put down the firewood she had not yet lit, stood up, and went outside.

Just then, Sanhu came in and sat down to continue Mrs. Jiang's work.

In the central room, Lin Sanshui pointed at a pile of neatly arranged peaches on the table. He asked, "What's going on? "

Mrs. Jiang was dumbfounded. "How would I know what happened? Didn't I come back from the fields with you? I didn't even get to enter this house."

After saying that, Mrs. Jiang walked to the door and peeked outside. She saw Xiaohu and called out, "Xiaohu, do you know where the peaches on the table came from?"

"I know. We picked it from the mountain." Xiaohu smiled proudly. "Father, Mother, we also found a type of red fruit. It's sweet and sour, and it's very delicious. Little Sister says it's strawberry, but it's much bigger and tastier than a strawberry. We also caught a rabbit."

After Mrs. Jiang's question, Gu Nian had been listening intently to the conversation outside. Fortunately, Xiaohu had been using 'we' instead of 'she'.

Gu Nian heaved a sigh of relief. She would not be suspected, would she?

After Xiaohu had finished, Lin Sanshui quickly went to the chicken pen to check on the rabbit they had caught. It was a fat white rabbit that weighed at least four to five catties.

Only then did Mrs. Jiang notice the red fruits in the basket under the table. The red fruits didn't look like the wild strawberries growing in the mountains, but the leaves looked similar.

"Mrs. Jiang took one out and asked, "Have you eaten? Your stomach doesn't hurt, right?"

Xiaohu shook his head violently. "It doesn't hurt at all. Sister said that she had eaten it before. It's not poisonous."

Madam Jiang put it in her mouth and took a bite. It was just as Xiaohu had said, sour and sweet, delicious.

Lin Sanshui came in from outside, a bright smile on his face. "Haha! These kids are really lucky. They even managed to catch a rabbit weighing four to five catties. I have never been this lucky in decades."

Mrs. Jiang rolled her eyes at him and asked Xiaohu, "How did you guys catch this rabbit?"

The four-legged little thing ran extremely fast and was not easy to catch.

"The little rabbit hit Little Sister's leg and fell. When Little Sister fell, she pressed the rabbit under her."

When they heard Xiaohu's proud tone, the Lin couple thought they had seen this scene with their own eyes. They could not help but exclaim at the luck of their children.

Xiaohu hugged Lin Sanshui's leg, "Dad, come with us to the mountains. There are so many good things in the mountains. We even found the wood ears, but there were too many things to take, so we didn't manage to pick them back."

Listening to Xiaohu's coquettish tone, Lin Sanshui and Mrs. Jiang looked at each other and then nodded with a smile. "Alright, I'll go to the field again this afternoon. I think I'll be able to pull out all the weeds in the field. I will accompany you up the mountain tomorrow. I'd like to see how lucky you three are!"
