Chapter 10 The Child's Black Egg
The child stopped and looked at the rabbit with eager eyes but did not step forward to pick it up.
He turned to look at Song Wei.
Song Wei walked over and picked up the hare's hind legs, clearly seeing the disappointment in the child's eyes.
He pursed his lips and glanced at the wild rabbit, then turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, do you know how to roast a rabbit?"
Half an hour later, somewhere hidden.
Song Wei took a wooden stick and slapped the big pine tower. The pine trees here did not know what kind they were, and the pine towers that grew out were bigger than an adult's hand.
The pine nuts are also quite big. When the flowering pine cone is knocked with a wooden stick, the pine nuts inside fall off easily.
After knocking, she threw the pine cone aside. A thin, dark hand picked it up and threw it into the fire.
Above the fire, he was roasting rabbit meat conscientiously.
The rabbit meat has been roasted for a while and is making a sizzling sound.
"What's your name?"
The little boy said dullly: "Black egg."
"How old are you?"
"Five years old."
But Heidan's figure looks more like he is about three years old.
“There is no one at home?”
How else could you dress like this?
“Yes, grandma, my uncle’s family and my brother-in-law’s family.”
"But they don't like me."
Song Wei didn't mention his own family, so Song Wei had a rough guess.
However, his grandparents didn’t like him, so Song Wei didn’t expect him to cultivate such a child.
The pine cone in my hand is almost knocked down, and a large sack weighs only about five kilograms.
Tsk...the skin is thick but the flesh is thin, it’s really thick.
But she was also satisfied, the pine nuts were delicious.
The aroma of roasted rabbit has emerged, and everyone, big and small, squatted beside the fire and watched eagerly.
"It's a pity that there is no oil. It would be nice to encounter honey in the woods."
As soon as I apply this sweet honey, I don't know how fragrant it is.
They smeared a sour wild fruit on the rabbit meat, stuffed some wild onions into the rabbit's belly, and sprinkled some salt on the surface.
The salt was brought by Song Wei. She had planned to get something to bake in the mountains, but she didn't expect to be so lucky that she encountered a wild rabbit as soon as she arrived.
By the way, a child laborer was hired.
“It smells so good~”
Song Wei looked even more greedy than Hei Dan.
The child's stomach was growling with hunger, but smelling the scent of rabbit meat didn't act like she was worthless.
But...it smells really good.
After the excruciating wait, the rabbit meat was finally ready.
Song Wei tore off an oversized hind leg and handed it to him.
"Take and eat, I'll give you the reward."
Hei Dan sniffed, his eyes were a little red, he couldn't wait for the rabbit meat to cool down and couldn't wait to take a bite. .
The meat was very hot, but he was reluctant to spit it out after swirling it in his mouth. He just blew it and ate it.
“No one is competing with you. If you burn your tongue, you won’t be able to taste such a good taste.”
There is little seasoning, and the roast rabbit does not taste very good.
But for both Song Wei and Hei Dan, this meat is considered very delicious.
Black Egg Man’s appetite is not that big, and since he is often hungry, his stomach is quite small.
A rabbit's hind legs are enough for him to be full and even a little stretched.
Song Wei was not worried that his stomach could not bear it.
Children in rural areas have great bodies jumping up and down, especially black eggs. If they don’t have enough to eat at home, they will go out to find food. Still very strong.
After eating the rabbit meat, Hei Dan actively helped Song Wei pick up pine cones, fungi, and chestnuts. There are many matsutake mushrooms in this pine forest, and the place where they are is already relatively inside. The children in the village have been warned by the adults and dare not come, and the adults are too busy at work to come, which is an advantage for Song Wei and Hei Dan.
"There is a piece of matsutake here!"
Hei Dan's surprised voice came, and Song Wei walked leisurely over with a basket on his back, picking up two good-looking porcini mushrooms during the process.
Matsutake mushrooms have high nutritional value, and there are many of them in the forest. They can be stored for a long time if dried.
Song Wei saw Heidan put all the matsutake mushrooms he had picked into his basket on his back.
“Pick it back yourself.”
Hei Dan: "No, I won't be able to eat it myself after I pick it up."
He just put his head down and carefully put all the mushrooms he picked up into the basket on Song Wei's back, his little temper was quite stubborn.
But Song Wei didn’t say anything more.
If you can’t eat or protect yourself, you might as well give it to me.
Perhaps because he ate Song Wei’s rabbit meat, whatever good things Hei Dan found were stuffed into her backpack.
"What did you come to this mountain for?"
"To find food, you have to carry firewood back."
Hei Dan came here carrying a basket on his back, and his small body is so The backpack is already high.
The whole family is very evil-minded when they don't feed people enough and make them do heavy work.
Song Wei cursed, but the movement of picking up things was not slow.
When the mushrooms in the basket were almost collected, Song Wei picked up the pine cones and stuffed them into a sack. After taking them back, he slowly knocked them out.
It’s too slow to type now.
Another sack of chestnuts, from which they had removed the prickly shell.
Hei Dan’s fingers were pricked, but he didn’t say a word.
The most important thing is that he was not wearing shoes and his feet were injured.
Song Wei pushed the person aside, grabbed his feet and took out the thorns.
"Are you stupid? Why did you go there without any shoes?"
Hei Dan pursed his lips and said nothing, only staring at her with a pair of dark eyes, looking a little dazed. .
"Tsk... stay here honestly. If you can't stay any longer, crack pine nuts for me."
After that, she went to pick up chestnuts by herself.
When returning home, Song Wei carried a basket full of mushrooms on his back, two big sacks placed horizontally on the basket, his left hand easily dragged a dry tree as thick as yesterday, and his right hand carried a basket full of firewood, walking as fast as flying.
Heidan was empty-handed, holding two black-footed marbles, and chased after him in amazement.
"I...I will carry it myself."
Song Wei: "You can't keep up with me on my back. It's getting dark and I want to stay in the mountains to feed the wild animals."
Although her tone was not friendly, Heidan could still feel Song Wei's concern.
Heidan's eyes were a little red, and he looked like he was crying.
"Why are you crying? Where is your home?"
Heidan pointed to one of the roads, which is opposite to the Educated Youth Yard.
He sniffed: "You make me feel like my mother."
Song Wei:…………
Will it speak to you!
She said angrily: "Okay, just carry it, is it still far?"
Heidan shook his head.
“Don’t be so stupid next time. If you can’t protect the things you find in the mountains, just find a place that only you know and hide them. Don’t pick up too much firewood until you’re too tired to use it.”
“Got it.”
Heidan nodded with a cry, and left with firewood on his back.
Song Wei saw him leaving, then took his things back to the Educated Youth Courtyard.
When everyone saw that she had brought back such a big dry tree and the things she was carrying, they immediately said: .........
She is a girl with a slender figure and looks very delicate. The visual impact of carrying so many bags on your back is really great.
This is already the second time, but they are still not used to it.
