Chapter 108 No Work, No Drink
The old couple did not interfere with how An Xueyan took care of Zhan Zhan. If their granddaughter could be trained well, it would be a good thing for them to have meat to eat every day.
An Qingyu came in and said, "Will it catch prey? Actually, it can eat less meat."
Her mother directly retorted: "Then don't eat the stewed meat next time."
An Youliang comforted him, "Don't worry, my girl. Zhan Zhan always finds food outside by himself. He won't treat himself badly."
An Xueyan gave an example, "Aunt, a loving mother often spoils her child. Your mentality is just like that of Grandma Zhou Liu from our village. Look at what her youngest son is like now."
An Honglei added, "I was idle and thieving all day long. I didn't earn a single work point and was completely dependent on my brother and sister-in-law for support."
"How can Zhanzhan compare to him? Our Zhanzhan is the soaring eagle in the sky, the overlord of the sky."
Zhang Guihua curled her lips and said, "Even if it's the king of the sky, it's still just a bird. If it were during the famine more than ten years ago, it would have been eaten alive by now."
It's nothing like now, where it's still being treated like an ancestor. Although it's smart and has done great things, in Zhang Guihua's mind it's still a bird that can be killed and eaten.
It was her mentality that caused Zhan Zhan to fly away every time she got close to him.
"Mom..." An Qingyu shouted angrily.
An Xueyan pulled the person to comfort him and persuaded him, "Aunt, don't be angry. Let's eat quickly. You still have to go to school later. When you get home from school in the afternoon, maybe Zhan Zhan will have caught some prey."
After much difficulty in persuading her aunt, she received a lot of glares.
After eating, they walked back to school. It took them two hours to go back and forth just to have a hot meal. It was really hard work.
When she was halfway there, her son Zhanzhan stopped her.
He threw the caught rabbit in front of a few people and signaled An Xueyan to bring out some water quickly.
"Our Zhanzhan is so awesome, he actually caught a rabbit." An Qingyu praised excitedly from the side.
"Well done." An Xueyan touched its head.
So they poured water for it. Fortunately, they brought a kettle. They took the kettle from my brother and poured a cap of water for it to drink.
She had replaced the poured water with pure spiritual spring water.
Everyone who went to school with him stopped and chattered, looking at Zhan Zhan with envy.
"Shitou, your family can now eat meat every day from now on. That would be so wonderful!"
"Yeah, it would be nice if I could raise an eagle like this."
"How did you catch the eagle?"
...Everyone gathered around An Honglei and asked about the situation.
An Xueyan had already fed Zhan Zhan three cups of water before Zhan Zhan made a satisfied sound.
I stroked its fur and said softly and gently, "You must do this from now on. When you catch prey, you must bring it home."
“Hehe~” I understand.
It turned around and flew away, heading towards the deep mountains.
An Qingyu had already picked up the bloody rabbit.
"First take it to school and put it in Jianshe's dormitory, and then take it home and stew it after school in the afternoon." She had already thought of what to do in the evening.
"Aunt~ I want to eat too~" An Qiuxiang acted coquettishly.
"I'll bring a bowl for each of you tonight." An Qingyu waved generously.
Along the way, everyone was enthusiastically discussing the fact that the eagle raised by the An family had caught a rabbit. When they arrived at school, they continued to tell the uninformed classmates about it. In one afternoon, the entire commune's teachers and students knew about it.
Before class started, An Qingyu went to build the small dormitory room for his nephew and his wife.
He said directly: "Nephew Jianshe and niece-in-law, Zhanzhan caught a rabbit and put it here with you first. I will take it back after school this afternoon.
"My dear niece, it's not that I don't want you to eat it, but you can't eat rabbit meat when you're pregnant. I'll give you other meats to nourish your body next time."
An Jianshe, Zhang Xiu... they are older and of lower generation, and I feel uncomfortable every time I hear these names.
Zhang Xiu smiled and said, "I know, aunt, just leave it here."
"Aunt, can you let Zhan Zhan catch pheasants next time? I'll trade you something." An Jianshe really wanted to nourish his wife's body.
The elder An Qingyu cleared his throat and said, "Let me talk to Yanyan. Zhanzhan is her adopted child."
"Thank you very much, aunt. I will mention it to Yanyan later. I won't treat you unfairly then."
After class, An Jianshe went to find his cousin and told her about this. An Xueyan had already received the message from her aunt and just told An Jianshe to give it a try, as she didn't know if Zhan Zhan could be caught.
After returning home from school in the afternoon, An Qingyu rushed into the kitchen, and the brother and sister joined their cousin Jinbao to get down to work.
An Honglei said, "I asked Xiaohu and the others to find out. Li Sanni, Li Wuni, and An Xiaocui were all collecting firewood in the reed marsh. They happened to be together."
An Jinbao took the lead and walked towards the reed marsh: "This saves us from looking for them one by one."
"Hehe, let's go to the reed marsh to look for wild ducks." An Xueyan said seriously.
When the three of them arrived at the reed marsh, they saw Li Sanni and others, and the other party also saw them.
However, when he saw An Jinbao was there, he glared at An Xueyan, who looked the weakest.
An Xueyan? Do you think she's easy to bully?
You look down on her so much!
What can a man endure?
A bright smile appeared on his face: "What a coincidence, you are here too."
Then he said in a provocative tone, "I don't know if this firewood is enough to give us a steamed bun tonight.
Brother, wowotou is really irritating to the throat, why do they eat it every day? "
Li Sanni couldn't help but sneer, "We're all poor peasants for eight generations. We're not like some of those capitalist ladies who want to eat white rice and rich fish and meat every day."
There was poison in his eyes when he looked at An Xueyan. Why was it that even though they were all girls, she had to go hungry and cold every day, couldn't go to school, and was beaten?
A burden who is not even wanted by her own mother lives like a daughter of a landlord.
An Xueyan laughed out loud: "Hahaha, eating some meat makes you a capitalist lady?
Anyone in your family who ate meat last night will be paraded through the streets. I have to ask Uncle Li and Aunt Li if they ate meat."
"I also have to go to other people's homes and ask if farmers can't eat white rice and meat and should only eat steamed corn bread."
Not only will Li Sanni be beaten when she returns, but she may also face the opinions of everyone in the brigade.
Li Sanni was furious: "You...don't talk nonsense. When did I say that?"
An Xueyan spread her hands innocently and said, "That's what you just said!"
He walked over and circled around them, then kindly reminded them, "Li Sanni, you should think carefully before you speak next time. This is because we are all kind-hearted. If it were someone else, they might not let you go. You would be in big trouble then."
"Brother, let's go. We shouldn't waste time here with them. We should go and see if we can find any wild duck eggs before it gets dark."
An Jinbao and An Honglei stood by, keeping a vigilant eye on the situation and closely watching the three girls to prevent them from fighting.
Li Sanni's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, but she didn't dare to do anything. Li Wuni, who wanted to attack An Xueyan who was approaching them, was also stopped by An Xiaocui.
