Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 47 Which came first, the egg or the chicken?



Jiang Ling walked out upon hearing the sound, and Xiao Yu and Lightning appeared in front of Jiang Ling with two baskets of mint on their backs.

Jiang Ling quickly took the pan, poured the mint in a cool place, took out four copper coins from his pocket, handed the pan and the coins to Xiao Yu and Lightning, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, keep these four copper coins. Don't lose it."

Xiao Yu and Lightning looked at the copper plate in their hands and almost laughed so hard that their eyes narrowed into a line.

The two carefully put away the two copper coins, and ran towards their own field with the basket in hand.

"Mother...do you think this will work?" Jiang Wenxi moved closer to Jiang Ling, pulled Jiang Ling's sleeve and pointed at the roller he put on the ground.

Jiang Ling took Jiang Wenxi to the kitchen, and was a little surprised to see the scene in front of him. There were still a lot of mints that Jiang Wenxi smashed in just a few minutes.

"Wenxi, are you tired?" Jiang Ling said while touching Wenxi's head with distressed eyes.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wenxi quickly shook his head and said with a complacent expression on his chest: "Not tired, not tired, this job is not tiring at all."

Jiang Ling frowned. She had never raised a child before, but Jiang Ling knew a little bit about the basics of common sense. Is it normal for a four-year-old child to be so strong?

Countless question marks appeared in Jiang Ling's mind, but Jiang Ling was busy making mint water now and didn't think much about it.

She kissed Jiang Wenxi's flushed little cheek and said softly, "Wenxi, mother will cook something delicious for you tonight! You should go and rest now!"

After Jiang Wenxi heard the word "delicious", he quickly swallowed his saliva, and left the kitchen with his eyes bent into crescents.

Jiang Ling looked up at the window, Jiang Suhe frowned and looked at the book in his hand, while Jiang Wenxi led Nianci to play.

When no one noticed her side, Jiang Ling dared to open the mall and bought two packs of white sugar.

According to the method in the previous book, mint syrup was made again, and soon the first bucket of mint water was made by Jiang Ling. After Jiang Ling found a cool place to put the mint water, he began to repeat the previous series of processes.

After everything was done, Jiang Ling was already dripping with sweat, and her clothes were almost soaked in sweat.

That wet feeling against the skin is not at all uncomfortable.

"Well... this time I sold mint water, I have to buy some cloth to make clothes, these clothes are too torn!" Jiang Ling glanced at the patched clothes and sighed helplessly.

Jiang Ling sat on the kitchen floor and rested for a while, looking up at the sky, the sun was setting, and the blue sky was once again stained blood red.

Before making dinner, Jiang Ling bought a piece of lean meat in the mall, hesitated and bought four more eggs.For dinner, Jiang Ling plans to make fried wild mushrooms and eggs.

When the two dishes were brought to the table, all three children swallowed in unison.

"Mom! Where did you buy the eggs?" Although Jiang Suhe was holding back her saliva, she still retained a trace of reason. She looked up at Jiang Ling and asked.

"This..." Jiang Ling thought that the children would not be suspicious when Jiang Yaojie was not at home, but Jiang Suhe's mind seemed to be spinning very quickly.

"Oh! This, my mother found it in the back mountain today, it must have been laid by some pheasant." Jiang Ling thought for a while and found an extremely lame reason to prevaricate.

"Ah! Mother! There are pheasants in the back mountain..." Jiang Wenxi asked, looking at Jiang Ling with wide-eyed eyes.

"Uh...but...maybe! Suihe, Wenxi, and Nianci, let's eat!" Jiang Ling was afraid that he would reveal his secrets if he continued, so he quickly put a piece of egg in each child's bowl.

After all, it was a child, and the delicious eggs immediately hooked the children's greedy worms. All three children "hululu" and "hululu" started their life of cooking with their heads sullen.

"Mother... Is there really a pheasant in the back mountain?" Jiang Suihe asked Jiang Ling cautiously after eating.

"This...should...should be there!"

Jiang Ling was secretly surprised again, how could this child have not forgotten about the egg before.

"Go! Mom! Let's go to the mountain!" This was the first time Jiang Suihe took Jiang Ling's hand and walked out.

"Go? Why go to the back mountain?" Jiang Ling was a little surprised, Sui He was usually the most obedient girl, why did she suddenly go to the back mountain.

"Mom, didn't you say that you picked up these eggs in the back mountain? There must be chickens, so let's go find them quickly. If there are, we will catch them, so that brothers and sisters will have eggs to eat in the future!" Jiang Suhe was a little anxious when he said this, and his face turned red.

Jiang Ling looked at Jiang Suhe's firm eyes, and began to frantically think of countermeasures in his head.

"Yes..." The corners of Jiang Ling's mouth turned up slightly, and he said to Jiang Suhe: "Suihe, wait a minute, mother is going to get the basket!"

The afterglow of the setting sun gradually disappeared, and the sky was covered with a faint layer of gray. Jiang Ling held a torch and led Jiang Suihe towards the direction of the mountain.

"Suihe, let's go separately, okay? You go over there, I'll go here!" Jiang Ling pointed to the place next to him.

Jiang Suihe nodded, eyes full of excitement and walked towards another place.

Seeing Jiang Suihe disappearing, Jiang Ling also hid aside. After about a few minutes, Jiang Ling opened the system mall, bought a hen weighing about three to four catties for ten copper coins, and pinched the hen's paws to the side Shouted: "Suihe! Come on! Come and help your mother! I found it!"

As soon as the words came out, not long after, the grass in front of Jiang Ling rustled, and then Jiang Suihe appeared in front of Jiang Ling. She was very excited when she saw the hen, holding the hen's wings with one hand, and carrying the hen with the other. The two chicken feet smiled and said to Jiang Ling: "Mom, that's great, we will have eggs to eat in the future."

"Forget it...forget it, children don't understand, I'll buy a rooster next time!" Jiang Ling opened his mouth, but finally he could only slightly raise the corner of his mouth and touched Jiang Suhe's head: "Well, let's go down the mountain quickly , the village chief said there might be wolves on this mountain!"

When he heard "wolf", Jiang Suihe's whole body shook, and he couldn't help speeding up the pace of taking Jiang Ling out of the mountain.

"Wow! There is really a chicken!" After Jiang Suihe brought the chicken back, the other two children sighed.

Especially the gluttonous Jiang Wenxi, she touched the chicken head lightly with her hand and said, "Mom! Will we have eggs every day from now on?"

"Um...yes...yes." Jiang Ling quickly wiped the imperceptible sweat left on his forehead with black lines all over his head.

At Haishi, Jiang Ling lay on the bed and listened to the even breathing of her two daughters, and she began to worry about Jiang Yaojie involuntarily.

"Hey, I don't know if Yaojie is safe there. This kid likes to keep everything in his heart. If he is really hurt, he probably won't say it..." Thinking of this, Jiang Ling smiled awkwardly, and said to himself I don't know when I really regarded these four children as my own.

Now Jiang Ling has realized first-hand the true meaning of the song "Wandering Zi Yin" that she learned in school.
