C5 (1/2)

Early in the morning the next day, when the sky was still dark, Jiang Kevin, who had not slept for the entire night but was still in high spirits, came to the yard to exercise his muscles and bones.

When Guo Caiyun woke up early to cook, she had already finished her body training and filled the two vats in the yard with water.

The Lin Family Village usually only supplied water from 5 to 7: 30 in the morning. Only in the winter, it was supplied water at noon, and the rest of the time, there was no water on the running water. Every morning, Lin Fengmao's house filled two large vats with water. All day long, they had to wash, wash, and cook from these vats.

Normally, this kind of heavy task would be left to Lin Fengmao, but today, he was done with it by Jiang Chen.

Everyone liked hardworking children, and Guo Caiyun was no exception.

”Aiya, child, you are currently growing up, don't do such heavy work in the future. Just leave it to your uncle. ”

Jiang Kevin wiped away the sweat on his forehead and said, ”It's alright, I'm also training my body.”

The rural breakfast was very simple: a plate of pickled vegetables, a plate of mixed tofu, a few salted duck eggs, and steamed buns and rice porridge.

Originally, Lin Fengmao and Guo Caiyun were afraid that Jiang Kevin would not be used to farm rice, but who knew that this child ate with relish. He ate three steamed buns and even drank half a pot of rice porridge.

Guo Caiyun, on the other hand, was worried that she wouldn't be able to digest the food. On the other hand, Lin Fengmao was very happy, ”Alright, this is a man's way of eating. Don't learn from your cousin, just eat a little, and you'll lose weight.”

Guo Caiyun rolled her eyes at Lin Fengmao and said, ”Wenwen, auntie will wash some hawthorn for you and help you digest them later.”

Jiang Kevin did not refuse any visitors. ”Alright.”

Guo Caiyun saw that Jiang Kevin was not shy at all. He had always been a straightforward person and grew more fond of him. She happily helped him wash the hawthorn stalks.

After the meal, he asked Lin Fengmao to find a house, ”Uncle, I'll have to trouble you to take care of it. Money is not a problem.”

”Sure.” I'll go and find out for you in a bit. ” Lin Fengmao happily agreed.

Even though they had only known each other for less than a day, Lin Fengmao could already tell that although this child always had a smile on his face and treated others as his friends, he still had a straightforward mind.

After Lin Fengmao left, Lin Jianmu came to find Jiang Kevin.

”Kevin, we'll go to the mountains later to pick wild vegetables. Do you want to go with us?”

Of course, Jiang Chen was interested and was pleased to go.

She was stopped by Guo Caiyun before she could go out, ”Child, can you wear your clothes on the mountain? Here, these are your brother's old clothes, wear these.”

Jiang Kevin changed from being an experienced person to taking a basket from the kitchen and carrying it on his back.

She was about to take another sickle, but she was stuck with a stick.

Other than Lin Jianmu, Jiang Kevin, there was also Lin Kai, Lin Jianmu's good buddy.

Lin Kai had some objections towards Lin Jianmu bringing Jiang Kevin along, but he did not want to refute his bro by giving him some face. Thus, his expression changed a little.

Jiang Chen did not mind. She was not someone who could make everyone like her, not to mention that some people did not even like gold.

After greeting Lin Kai politely, Jiang Kevin quietly listened to Lin Jianmu give her some advice on how to enter the mountain.

In April, the forest was already full of greenery and flowers could be seen everywhere.

Lin Jianmu said: ”Now is the best time to pick wild vegetables, this is shepherd's bursaries, dumplings the most delicious. ”Choose the fresh ones, but don't let the blooming ones go, they are all old.

”This is mountain onion, just like wild onions. The method is pretty much the same as scallion. It's so fragrant to fry the meat, and you can even add medicine to it.”

”This is horse-toothed food, you can either cook it or cook it. My dad likes it, but I don't like it.”

”Look, this is ferns, my favorite. After boiling it in water, it will be mixed with water, and after sucking it, my saliva will be flowing out.”

In addition to all kinds of wild vegetables, there were also mushrooms.

”Generally bright colored mushrooms are poisonous, I don't say that you should know. Non-poisonous mushrooms grew in grass and trees, especially pine trees, and most of the poisonous mushrooms grew in dark, damp places. Although the smell of the non-poisonous mushrooms is average, the smell of the poisonous mushrooms is very pungent … ”

Although Lin Jianmu had introduced her to Jiang Chen, he did not give her much time to gather the fruits. Instead, he kept on walking up the stairs.

After a moment of pondering, Jiang Chen knew that this kid was definitely not here to pick wild vegetables. He definitely had other intentions.

As expected, when he reached the mountainside, Lin Jianmu suddenly stopped and his voice became softer.

Yesterday, I went up the mountain and found a nest of pheasants. At that time, I was by myself and didn't have any tools at hand. It was already late in the night, so I didn't rake the chickens.

Lin Kai was dissatisfied, ”What right do you have to call me that?”

Lin Jianmu stared at him, ”Are you listening to me or are you listening to me?”

Lin Kai coldly snorted and did not say anything else. Amongst the people who allowed them to grow up together, Lin Jianmu was the best at capturing pheasants and rabbits.

Seeing Lin Kai fall silent, Lin Jianmu turned his head and gave Jiang Kevin a flattering smile. ”Kevin is depending on you.”

That's right, the reason why Lin Jianmu dared to catch a wild chicken without any tools was because he was relying on Jiang Kevin.

Jiang Chen gave him a helpless look and nodded.

Lin Kai coldly snorted.

The trio's footsteps became lighter. After searching for a while, they found the traces of the wild chicken and their footsteps became lighter.

Suddenly, Jiang Kevin's ears twitched as he looked in a particular direction.

Lin Jianmu was extremely focused on her, and when he saw the situation unfold, he immediately headed over there. He slowly pushed his way through the grass and saw a few pheasants pecking about.

Lin Jianmu suppressed his excitement and instructed in a low voice, ”Let's surround them on three sides. Lin Kai, you stay here. Kevin, you...” Kevin, what are you doing? ”You …”

He saw Kevin take a slingshot out of his coat — thanks to his cousin, whom she had found in his room; and gravel — thanks to the people who built the house in the village, which he had grabbed from the pile of sand and rocks in front of their house.

Lin Jianmu wanted to stop Jiang Kevin from alerting the snake, but when he recalled what happened yesterday, he shut his mouth in the end.

”Jiang Kevin, you don't know anything, so stop fooling around!”
