Chapter 26 Eat Chicken
Chapter 26 Eat Chicken
However, feelings are feelings.
Li Youquan didn't think much about it.
After all, this is the society we live in now.
The reality and power of many people are understandable and cannot be blamed.
"Go home and have dinner~"
Li Youquan no longer cared about the complicated looks from other people in the yard.
Holding a pheasant in one hand, he walked straight to the backyard, ready to go home.
But I never expected that as soon as I stepped into the backyard gate and looked up, I would meet the worried eyes of my aunt Li Huifen.
"Youquan, you're back."
Li Huifen was standing at the door of her house at this time, looking around.
Seeing that Li Youquan was safe and sound, he finally felt relieved.
"Auntie, this isn't my first time going up the mountain, why are you so worried?"
"It's so cold, stop standing outside!"
"Let's go inside and eat. Today we're having pheasant!"
Li Youquan excitedly handed the pheasant in his hand to Li Huifen.
Upon seeing this, the latter also had a faint smile on his face.
"You've been out all day, you must be exhausted!"
"I'll stew this big one for you first to replenish your body!"
The two of them entered the house one after the other.
Honghong was reading a book in the room at the moment. When she heard the noise, she jumped out happily.
"Brother! You're back!"
"Wow! Such a big cock! Bro, you are amazing!"
After seeing the two wild pheasants, Honghong's eyes widened.
Ever since my father passed away, our family has been living frugally and leading a tight life over the years.
But ever since Brother Youquan recovered from his illness, everything seemed to be changing.
In just a few days, life at home began to get better.
Thinking back carefully, it always feels like a dream.
"Hey, brother, these two chickens, stew one and make soup."
"The other spicy stir-fry, do you think it's good?"
His red eyes rolled around and he kept swallowing saliva.
Seeing this, Li Youquan smiled knowingly and stretched out his hand to scratch her nose: "You little greedy cat, you really know how to eat! I think you should be a chef in the future!"
On the other hand, Li Huifen, who was busy in the kitchen, glanced at Honghong and said with a smile, "You naughty girl, why are you still stir-frying it? Let's keep one for ourselves, and I'll sell the other one at the market tomorrow to earn some money to supplement the family income!"
"It's not easy for you to go hunting in the mountains with Brother Quan. You just eat two chickens, how can we live?"
Upon hearing this, Honghong pouted and lowered her head in shame.
"Mom, I was wrong."
However, at this time, Li Youquan waved his hand.
"Auntie, I've sold all the goods for the money I should have earned!"
"In addition to these two pheasants, I also hunted a lot of wild animals. I sent some to Director Han and sold the rest!"
"These two chickens are what I left for you to eat."
Li Youquan did not tell his aunt about having killed a wild boar.
The reason was simple: I was just afraid that my aunt would worry.
After all, wild boars are extremely ferocious and very dangerous to hunt. If my aunt knew that it was so dangerous for me to go out, she would definitely not let me go out no matter what.
"Really? We sold quite a few!"
"Okay, okay, in that case, I won't spoil your fun."
I heard Li Youquan talking about the great harvest from hunting today.
Li Huifen also showed a relieved smile on her face: "Youquan, you are grown up now. When you earn money in the future, just keep it for yourself and prepare it for emergencies when you go out."
"Leaders like Director Han should go out more often when they have the chance. Don't be afraid to spend money. If you don't have enough money, just tell me and I'll get you more!"
"You haven't found a job yet, maybe you can use me in the future!"
Li Youquan nodded upon hearing this, but didn't say much.
In the future, when the storms surge, there will naturally be countless opportunities to make money. He can rely on the memory of future generations to ride the wind.
However, my aunt did make sense in one point.
People in leadership can indeed be managed a little bit when appropriate.
After all, in a few years, public-private partnership will be here, and small businesses will be considered as speculation.
To put it in a broader sense, people like the Lou family would be considered capitalists.
Once the era of great storms comes, not just anyone will be able to contend with it.
Except for these beasts in the courtyard.
When you are out there, you have more friends and more paths to choose from.
If there is a connection, at least there is a way out.
...
at this time.
By the fire.
Li Youquan squatted on a small stool, waiting for dinner to be served.
While her aunt was stewing the chicken, Honghong went back to her room to read.
Li Youquan let his thoughts escape into the Lingquan space.
This is the reward given by the system after you earn money from selling wild boars and other wild animals.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the reward! ]
[Space Reward: Great Unity x5! ]
【Birch wood x500 catties】
Hear the cue in the ear.
Li Youquan couldn't help but feel happy.
Although the rewards are random, it is still very nice to give money directly.
In addition, the wood rewarded this time can be used just right.
In a flash of thought.
Li Youquan came back to reality, looked at the shabby furniture in the house, and soon had an idea.
"Tomorrow I will go to the tailor shop outside and use the cotton and cloth that the system gave me as a reward to sew a set of clothes for my aunt and Honghong."
"Then we will find Mr. Zhou from the middle court and ask him to use his carpentry skills to make a new set of furniture for the house."
Li Youquan made up his mind.
Before you know it, time has passed.
Li Huifen had already prepared a pot of fragrant stewed pheasant and a large plate of spicy chicken.
Add a few vegetarian dishes and the table is full.
After this meal, my face was red and shiny. I was so happy.
On the other hand, aunt Li Huifen kept picking up vegetables and meat for Li Youquan and Honghong.
He shared the four chicken legs between the brother and sister, and ate the vegetarian dishes on the table himself.
Seeing this scene, Li Youquan smiled faintly and directly put the chicken leg in his bowl into Li Huifen's bowl.
"Aunt, I will go hunting in the mountains from time to time in the future, so I won't be short of game for the time being!"
"You should eat what you need. You don't have to live frugally like before!"
"Now my condition has improved and I am back on track. Our lives will definitely get better and better!"
Looking at the chicken legs in the bowl, Li Huifen originally wanted to refuse it.
But when she saw Li Youquan's determined eyes, she couldn't help but waver.
Although the habit of frugality has been ingrained in our bones for a long time.
But she also knew very well that Youquan brought these things home for his family to eat.
At this point, if you keep pushing it back and forth, it will somewhat spoil the child's fun.
"Okay, I'll eat it!"
"From now on, our family will definitely live better and better!"
Li Huifen picked up the bowl and started eating with a happy look on her face.
Seeing this, Li Youquan and Honghong smiled at each other and started to eat heartily.
Little did they know that this was a heartwarming scene.
It just happened to be seen through the window by some people outside.
