Chapter 139： secretly

  Liu Ting saw that his wife and children hadn't come back so late, and the Hu people had just retreated, and the outside was very chaotic, so he couldn't help asking Liu Yuan to come out and have a look.

Liu Ting also saw them, stepped forward quickly, took the **** from Liu Zhang's shoulder, and asked, "Why so late?"

Liu Zhangshi blushed slightly, glared at his eldest son, and said, "It's nothing, let's go home first."

Mu Yangling followed them to the door of the house, took out a rabbit, divided the rest into two, and handed it to Liu Ting and Liu Yuan, "Uncle Ting, I'll give you something to eat, I'll go to cousin Li's house to see. ."

The    cousins ​​were not polite to her either, and took over: "Then you go quickly, we will wait for you here, and we will take you back in a while."

Mu Yangling said with a smile: "You sent me back, and I will send you again. You don't have to sleep tonight. You should hurry up and go home. I am so strong that I have even killed people. What are you afraid of?"

Liu Ting frowned, "You are a child after all."

Mu Yangling insisted, pushed the person directly into the house, and waved: "Okay, okay, go back quickly, I don't have time to talk to you."

Mu Yangling turned around and was about to run, but Liu Yuan grabbed her and said, "Why don't you just stay here for one night, it's too dangerous to run outside at night."

"Only my aunt and my mother have a few children at home, how can I rest assured? Uncle, don't worry, I have passed through the Longtan tiger den, and if they really want to rob me, they are too unlucky, right? "

A few people thought about it, and as soon as their hands were loosened, Mu Yangling rushed out like an arrow.

Mu Yangling ran to Liu Li's house in a hurry, knocked on the door, and heard Liu Ma's vigilant voice: "Who is it?"

Mu Yangling trembled slightly when she heard her voice, her brows could not help wrinkling, and she raised her voice: "Aunt Cousin, it's me, A Ling."

Liu Ma hurriedly came out of the house to open the door for her, and said in surprise, "A Ling? Why did you come here?"

Mu Yangling raised the rabbit in his hand, "I'll send my Aunt Ting over to see you by the way." Mu Yangling followed her into the house, put the rabbit in the kitchen, looked around, and asked, "Watch Aunt, did anyone bully you in the village?"

Liu Ma forced a smile, "Who dares to bully me? Our Liu family is considered a big family in this village."

Although the Liu family was scattered into the fourth battalion and the fifth battalion, and some people were even assigned to the third battalion, considering that they were of the same clan, almost all the land allocated to them was in this area.

No matter how bad Liu Li is in front of the clan, he is still from the same clan. The Liu family will indeed protect Liu Ma, but what if the same clan bullies her?

Mu Yangling's face was a little ugly, but she didn't ask much. She was not familiar with Liu Ma, so she could only wait for Liu Lixun to come back and talk to him.

Taking the matter to the bottom of his heart, Mu Yangling's attention turned to the rabbits on the land and in the mountains.

Ma Liu looked up at the sky every night and determined that it would be sunny in the next few days, she said to Mu Yangling: "Let's put water in the seedlings tomorrow."

Rice is grown in the fine land facing the river to the east.

Mu Yangling directly opened a hole to let the water flow into the ground, and then kept stepping on the soil. It was only in the middle of the afternoon that the water flowed into the deeper ground, and the four quarters were separated for sowing and raising seedlings.

Mrs. Ma Liu stood by the side to guide the whole process and did not go into the fields. Xiao Bowen and Xiuhong Xiulan were also asked to study. She said, "How many years can I live? You have to learn how to farm, or I will leave in the future. Can I teach you?"

Mu Yangling carefully scattered the seeds on the soil, looked up carefully and asked, "Auntie, is this density right?"

After more than ten days, Ma Liu has understood the meaning of the terms such as density and plant spacing in Mu Yangling's mouth. Hearing that, he glanced down, nodded and said: "Almost, that's it, sprinkle these ridges of land, When the sun is about to go down in the evening, put a little water into the fields, don’t flood the seeds, just let the water reach this part.”

Mu Yangling memorized the position firmly, and he should go down.

Xiuhong was about to go into the fields, so Mu Yangling distributed some of the seeds to her. Seeing that Mrs. Ma Liu had left, Mu Yangling said in a low voice, "Xiuhong, you said that we first soaked rice seeds like wheat seeds. , do you think the seedlings that grow out will be better?"

Xiuhong glanced left and right, and said in a low voice but excitedly: "Otherwise, let's try?"

Mu Yangling's eyes shone brightly, patted Xiuhong and said, "Good sister, you really understand my heart, I have secretly soaked a little in my room before, right under the kang, it has sprouted, you take advantage of my aunt The time my mother-in-law went to the vegetable field, I secretly took it out, and in a while we were in the last half of the ridge."

Xiuhong listened to Mu Yangling, put down the seeds and ran home.

Xiao Bowen and Xiulan hurriedly helped them take care of the wind, and the four little ones smuggled the seeds that had sprouted in the last half of the field.

Mu Yangling covered it up a little, and after making sure that he couldn't see it if he didn't get close, he straightened up, touched the lower back, and said, "It's really exhausting me."

Bowen obediently stepped forward to help her beat her waist, "Sister, I'll beat you."

Although Bo Wen basked in the sun for a few days, his face was still white and tender, and because of the sun, his face was flushed, like a ripe red apple, Mu Yangling couldn't help touching it and said happily: "Go back in the evening and step on my back, and my sister will reward you with roe deer meat."

Bo Wen clapped his hands and said, "Is my sister going to go hunting in the mountains? Great," and added, "Sister, I think hunting is better than farming."

"But the money earned from hunting is definitely not enough to pay for military rations. You won't think hunting is better than farming if you don't have food." Mu Yangling looked at Chushan and said, "Chushan is not our Mu family's Chushan. It is the kitchen mountain of the people of Xingzhou Prefecture. We can’t exhaust the pond to fish. There are only so many prey in the mountain. ?"

There are so many rare animals in later generations, the state has to protect those animals by legislation, in addition to the cause of war, the excessive hunting of predecessors is also an important reason.

Now, who would dare to say that the blind bear and the tiger are rare animals? That thing ran into the deep mountains and old forests, and the probability of encountering it should not be too high.

Deer herds appear in groups, wild boars are a scourge, rabbits, Mu Yangling smiled, and soon, I am afraid that everyone will not be happy when they see rabbits, but hate and fear.

Mu Yangling thought about the rabbits in the mountains, but still couldn't sit still, looked up at the sky, and waved: "Okay, you all go back, my sister went into the mountains to hunt some rabbits, if you are lucky, maybe you can catch a roe deer ."

"Cousin, grandma said that rabbits are not easy to sell. People in the city don't have any money now, so they are all robbed by Hu people. They have to go to Fucheng."

Mu Yangling frowned, "I'll see if I can catch more or catch them alive, and I'll send them to Fucheng."

When Mu Yangling came out of the mountain, she carried a basket of hares on her back, and even carried several in her hands. The people in the village knew what she was doing, but because she rarely communicated with the people in the village, everyone dare not ask her.

However, many people came to ask Ma Liushi, Ma Liushi wanted to hide it, after all, this is a way to make money, but Mu Yangling shouted happily: "Auntie, you have to tell them there are many rabbits in the mountains. ."
