Chapter 7 Kiwi Potatoes

   "Third brother, the wife has really changed."

  At this moment, the fourth child, Mu Chen, spoke weakly.

  He was the second most beaten person.

  Because he was always silent, standing there silently being beaten.

  The more this happened, the annoyed Joey looked and the harder he attacked.

   "Even you say that, don't you know that a dog can't change eating shit?"

  Mu Xuan snorted coldly. In just one day, that woman actually bribed his brother.

   "Whether she has really changed, we don't know for the time being, but it is a fact that we were not beaten."

   "Second brother, when will eldest brother come back?"

  Mu Chen didn't want to talk about Qiao Yi, which made him subconsciously afraid.

  Being beaten for no reason, he didn't want to live like that again.

  Mu Yun knew what Mu Chen was thinking, so he didn't mention Qiao Yi.

"I do not know either."

  When he thought of the boss, Mu Qing, Mu Yun was worried.

   "Don't worry, big brother knows how to work hard. Usually, you only come back after several days when you go up the mountain. This time I left at noon. I guess I won't be able to come back in a few days."

  Compared to talking to Qiao Yi, Mu Xuan at this time is much gentler.

   "Tomorrow, you and the fourth child will go to the county town to see if they can pick up some work. I will go to Qiao's Village upstream to see if there is any simple work. It's getting cold every day, and this is not the way to go."

  Mu Yun's voice was as gentle as spring water, and there was a hint of exhaustion in it.

   This is a kind of exhaustion from the heart.

  The head of the wife does not care about the family, and the brothers in the family are either cold-tempered, irritable, or weak-tempered.

   So it all depends on him.

  As soon as Qiao Yi woke up, she saw Xiaoxue curled up in her arms.

   My heart is very soft.

  Xiaoxue's existence made her no longer alone in this different world.

  Get up and go outside the house, only to find that the second child, Mu Yun, is alone.

  Joy raised her eyebrows, but she didn't ask why everyone was there.

  She is just a passer-by in this family. She is afraid that she will integrate too deeply, and she will be reluctant to leave in the end.

  Breakfast is fried mushrooms and wild vegetable soup.

  Yesterday, Mu Yun watched Qiao Yi stir-fry mushrooms. It was very simple.

   Mu Yun's fried food was not as good as Qiao Yi's. Xiaoxue only ate a small piece and stopped eating.

   Qiao Yi drank a bowl of soup, ate a few mouthfuls of fried mushrooms and stopped chopsticks.

   "I'll go to the mountains to see."

  After leaving these words, Qiao Yi hugged Xiaoxue and left with a basket.

  Mu Yun glanced at the almost untouched wild vegetable soup and fried mushrooms on the table, and smiled wryly in his heart.

   Immediately, he also put down his chopsticks.

   It is impossible to say that he is not hungry, but today he has no appetite at all.

   "Xiaoxue, I'll give you barbecue when you're on the mountain."

   Qiaoyi walked up the mountain with Xiaoxue in his arms, and whispered to Xiaoxue at the same time.

   "Xiaoxue, you have to remember the way, otherwise we won't be able to come back."

   "Xiaoxue..."

   Along the way, Qiao Yi kept thinking, Xiaoxue wanted to plug her ears.

   "Hey, what's that?"

   Just when Qiao Yi wanted to continue to investigate Xiaoxue Er, he suddenly found a very familiar bush in front of him.

  Walking in, it turned out to be wild kiwi fruit, and almost all of them were ripe.

   "Xiaoxue, we have encountered something good, don't run around, I will pick some and save it for winter to make jam."

  Joe put Xiaoxue on the ground and started picking kiwis.

  Because there is space, Joey is not worried that there will be no place to put it.

  A whole kiwi bush was picked by Joey in a short while.

  Looking at the kiwi fruit in the space of the earrings, Joey smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth.

   I didn’t expect there to be so many, about two hundred catties.

  Looking at the mushrooms picked yesterday, they are still fresh, as if they were picked just now.

  Joy didn't expect the earring space to be so useful.

  She studied for half a day while sleeping yesterday.

  The space inside is as big as two football fields, only dead objects can be placed, and it seems to have the effect of keeping fresh.

   She wasn't sure at first, but now she is sure.

  A space that can keep fresh is too important to her.

   In this way, she can eat whatever fruit she wants all year round.

  After picking the kiwi, Qiaoyi picked up Xiaoxue and continued walking.

  While walking, he did not forget to peel a kiwi for Xiaoxue to eat.

  Sweet and juicy kiwi, Xiaoxue likes it very much.

  Xiaoxue ate three wild kiwis the size of a baby's fist.

  Joy was not idle either, eating while walking.

   Didn't go far, Joey found something good again.

  It was a field of wild potato vines (potatoes).

   "There must be potatoes down there."

  Joy's eyes lit up.

   "I finally have a staple food today. Xiaoxue, don't run around, I'll cook something delicious for you tonight."

  Put down Xiaoxue, grab the potato seedlings and start pulling them out.

   Because this is a mountain, few people pass by, so the soil is very loose.

  Qiao Yi pulled the potato seedlings out gently, and the potatoes below rushed out of the ground one by one.

  Looking at the potatoes that were almost the size of an adult's palm, Joey smiled like a child.

  With motivation, I can do everything with enthusiasm.

  A large piece of potato, as big as an acre of land, was pulled out by Qiao Yi in two hours.

   Looking at a large pile of potatoes in the space, Joey was satisfied.

   While pulling out potato seedlings, Joey also found a rabbit nest.

  The big rabbit is missing, and there are seven little rabbits who look like they have just been weaned in the nest.

   Seeing them eating grass, Qiao Yi directly grabbed several palm-sized rabbits without being polite at all.

  It was past noon at this time.

   Xiaoxue led the way, and the two walked outside together.

   I am afraid that others will find out that I am special. After all, money does not leak out, so be careful.

  Joe put more than a dozen large potatoes in the basket, followed by seven little rabbits, and some wild vegetables were covered on top.

  In the eyes of outsiders, she just picked some wild vegetables.

  Following Xiaoxue, Qiao Yi walked out of the mountain smoothly and came to the river.

   "Xiaoxue, you are really a lucky star."

   After complimenting Xiaoxue, Qiao Yi hugged Xiaoxue in her arms.

   Looking at the sky, it should be around two o'clock in the afternoon.

  While passing the stone bridge, Qiaoyi looked at the almost dense crayfish under the bridge, and swallowed.

  When my wife has enough ingredients, I will definitely make a whole feast of crayfish.

  More than a hundred dishes, all of which are crayfish.

  Back to the thatched cottage, but there was no one there.

   This made Qiao Yi a little puzzled, where did all the brothers from the Mu family go.

   After thinking about it, it's better not to be.

  Qiaoyi directly took out more than one hundred catties of potatoes from the space, all the mushrooms and about ten catties of kiwi fruit.

  Joy first put the seven little rabbits in another clean basket, then threw a handful of wild vegetables into it, and asked Xiaoxue to watch the rabbits stop running away, and then began to organize the ingredients he brought back.

   First went to the river to carry a bucket of water, and then Joey began to wash the potatoes.

   Looking at the cleaned potatoes, Joey felt worried.
