At noon, I stewed rice and made potato soup, and I was finally able to drink some soup and water, and the three of them were very satisfied.

After lunch, Qiaolian asked the children to dress up and follow her to the forest behind to collect firewood.

The original owners of this house are a pair of old people, it is estimated that they are too old to move, and they have not saved much firewood at home, only those remain, which have burned almost every night and today.

At this time, the weather is very cold, and more fires must be burned at night to ensure that the kang can be hot all the time, so it is imperative to go out to collect firewood.

Fortunately, there is a mountain behind the house, and there are many fallen trees in the forest in these years, and there are standing trunks, that is, the kind of trees that die but do not fall, and slowly dry out.

Nowadays, the management of forestry is not so strict, as long as the growing trees are not cut down, no one will take care of them.

There was no burning at home right away, and Qiaolian naturally wouldn't cut down those fresh woods, of course, she had to find a station to dry, so she didn't have to scruple at all.

At this time, the forest is still very dense, especially there are few families here, the forest has not been destroyed, and there is firewood in the forest.

Qiao Lian led the children into the mountain not far away, when she saw a pine tree standing on the trunk, about the thickness of a basin, quite tall.

"Yes, this is it, pine loves, although there is a lot of black smoke, but we can't pick it now, so let's do it."

Qiao Lian was quite satisfied, and simply took out the saw, "You two dodge to the side, don't get too close, and beware of the wood falling and sweeping you up." "Before I started, I didn't forget to tell the two children to stay away as much as possible.

It stands to reason that they should not lead the children into the mountain, the snow on the mountain is very deep, and the two children are half buried in the snow.

Besides, there are many dangers in the mountains, who knows if there are any wild beasts in this mountain?

But the two children have been at home all morning, where are they willing to stay at home honestly? Qiao Lian thought that with her own skills, she should be able to deal with any danger even if she encountered it, so she led the children with her.

Fortunately, they were close, not far from home, and it was broad daylight, so there should be nothing wrong.

The two children obediently fell back along the pit of their feet until they were out of danger, and then stood in the snow and waited as their mother sawed wood.

The saw that Qiaolian bought is not the kind of this year, and there is no need for a file when she buys it, and she can use it directly.

And this saw steel mouth is good, it is light and translucent to use, and the pine itself is not hardwood, so it doesn't take much time to saw a tree.

Qiao Lian lived in a forest farm when she was a child in her previous life, and her parents were forest farm workers, so she naturally knew how to cut wood.

Seeing that the wood had been sawn a little more than halfway, he stopped and moved to the other side to stagger the position and saw again.

When the saw edges on both sides overlapped up and down, Qiao Lian took out the newly bought axe from her waist and knocked the trunk hard, and saw a dry tree fall in the direction Qiao Lian wanted.

At this time, Qiao Lian finally breathed a sigh of relief, she was lucky today, everything was going well, she was worried about an accident just now.

The pine tree fell, but Qiaolian was not idle, holding a saw in her hand, and sawing the wood into a foot and a half long, section by section. The branches were also looked at with axes and set aside.

This tree is not short, it can be about ten meters high, and it takes Qiaolian a lot of work just to see the wood.

Waiting for everything to be sawed down, Qiaolian made a gesture for the two children to dodge, and then rolled the wooden section down the hill with all her might.

The pine station is dry and relatively light, and the snow in the north is thick, and there is a hard cover on it, so the wooden section does not sink into the snow, but easily rolls down the mountain.

Of course, this rolling trajectory may not be in accordance with Qiao Lian's wishes, and some deviate from expectations.

The thickest piece of wood did not roll straight down, but rolled sideways, pressing over a bush.

Suddenly, two black shadows flew out of the bushes, and Qiao Lian looked at them and saw that they were two pheasants.

"Oh, there's pheasants, there's definitely a pheasant nest here. Jiakang Jiayuan, we have something delicious this time, waiting for my mother to give me a few sets, maybe we can have chicken to eat. ”

Qiaolian was very happy when she saw the pheasant flying.

It's a pity that she doesn't have a shotgun in her hand, if only she had, the forest is not destroyed at this time, there are many wild animals, and she can hit a lot of prey.

Qiao Lian said as she went to check near the bush, and sure enough, she saw the pheasant's nest.

Of course, there were definitely no eggs at this time, and the two pheasants were also frightened and flew up, wondering if they would abandon their original nests and find another place to build their nests again.

The most important thing in front of her was not the pheasant, but Chai He, so Qiaolian didn't pay too much attention, but rolled all the wooden sections down the mountain.

Then he put the branches of the tree together, cut down an elm tree and tied it up, and dragged it down the mountain.

The three of them went down the mountain with great effort, and got the wood segments and branches into the yard, and then Qiaolian first chopped off the branches with an axe.

After that, the wood section was split, not too fine, a piece of wood was split into four or five pieces, and it was kept for burning the kang at night, and it was hot for a long time.

It took a lot of work to finally deal with Chai He properly, Qiao Lian breathed a sigh of relief, and the sky was dark at this time, so she hurriedly hugged Chai He into the house and hurriedly prepared dinner.

After dinner, in the dim light of the oil lamp, Qiao Lian made a few sets very skillfully.

The pheasant she saw today gave her some inspiration, there is a way to rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and rely on the water to eat the water, at this time there are wild things in the mountains, how can she miss the opportunity?

In her previous life, her grandfather was a famous hunter in the forest farm, and when she was a child, she often followed her grandfather into the mountains, and saw how her grandfather dug traps and set up traps, which was not difficult for her.

"Mother, what are you busy with? What's going to be done? Jiakang Jiayuan looked at her mother who was busy working there and didn't sleep, she felt strange, and asked curiously around Qiaolian.

"Mother has to make a few sets to see if she can put on a pheasant or a hare or something.

I feel that there must be a lot of wild animals in the forest behind our house, and if you are lucky enough to get one back, won't you be able to satisfy your two cravings? Qiao Lian smiled.

Qiaolian has a system, it stands to reason that children can't eat, when she first came to this world, Qiaolian made a few delicious food for the children.

But after experiencing a lot of things, Qiao Lian became vigilant and careful.

Especially now, the three of them have nothing to come to their relatives, and it is reasonable to buy some household goods, with the eighty yuan as a cover.

But if their family always eats well, it is easy to arouse suspicion from others.

Qiaolian is now much more cautious than before, the system is her biggest secret, and she must not be noticed.

Even these two babies in the family have to be careful in the future, they are getting bigger and bigger, and they are becoming more and more sensible, Qiaolian doesn't dare to say that she can fool them in the future.
