e offended the Zhao family and couldn't leave Luoshui City What else is this but a threat""You!" That was a phrase Zhao Xingzhou habitually used, without even realizing it was a threat.Now that Fang...Given the current situation, food and water are more precious than life itself. Many families in the village fight tooth and nail for even a meager meal.

Kapok embroidered actually so easily gave him so many cakes, this is dried food ah!

He turned to his older brother for help, but his eyes were fixed on his sister-in-law, as if he hadn't seen her squandering their family fortune.

Song Changhe wouldn't just take so many snacks from someone for no reason, even though he really wanted them, he hurriedly returned the pastries to Fang Jinshiu.

"No, no, no, sister-in-law, I can't have your cookies."

"I, I'm already embarrassed to even ask for a small piece. These biscuits are precious food; you should keep them for yourselves."

Fang Jinshu heard this, and her eyes softened when she looked at Song Changhe.

Such a well-behaved child.

"Don't worry, there's plenty of food left at my sister-in-law's house. Take some."

After several back-and-forths of refusal, Zongyu finally spoke up.

"Chang He, take this."

Only when Song Changhe spoke did he dare to hold all three pieces of pastry. Fang Jinxiu could only accept it upon seeing this.

"How come this kid listens to you but not me"

She insisted he take it, though he refused adamantly. Even though he was starving, he wouldn't accept it. But with just one word from Zong Yu, he relented.

"Chang He is a kind child, probably thinking that you would give him the cookie even without my permission. He was afraid that you'd get scolded by me when you went home."

Fang Jinshi was taken aback, looking at the thin boy who ran away shyly, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

"If you have the chance in the future, please help him out."

Zong Yu nodded, his eyes filled with even more fondness for her.

To Ling Fangjin's surprise, the opportunity to help Song Changhe came so quickly.

She kept muttering to herself while searching for herbs, "I'm craving meat. Didn't you say there were wild animals in these mountains How is it that we've been here for so long and haven't seen a single one"

While others were terrified of the beast, she yearned for its appearance because Zongyu was always by her side.

"No wild boar, how about some rabbits, pheasants, or ducks instead"

Master Zong saw that his daughter-in-law wanted to eat meat, and a look of pity appeared in his eyes.

"I looked around this area yesterday when I was on the mountain, and there weren't any signs of wild animals."

He also wanted to hunt for his daughter-in-law and feed her meat, but this area was not a place where prey frequently appeared.

Fang Jinshu sighed, her face clearly showing disappointment. She crouched down and was about to continue digging for her herbs.

Suddenly, she saw a broken eggshell on the ground. She excitedly leaned in and took a closer look—the egg yolk was still fresh!

"zongyu, look at this!"

She picked up the eggshell and showed it to Zongyu.

"It's a wild duck egg," Zongyu was a little surprised. Wild ducks and pheasants were extremely difficult prey to catch because they could fly and usually didn't appear in the deep mountains.

"This egg must have broken not long ago, the egg yolk is still runny."

"Let's hurry up and look around the trees nearby. There must be a wild duck nest here."

Zongyu, without a word, searched every tree around and sure enough, found three nests of duck eggs, totaling thirteen.

The duck eggs were all bigger than her fist.

Fang Jinshi held the duck egg and smiled happily, "What breed of wild duck is this Why are all the eggs so big"

She thought to herself, if duck eggs are this big, then adult ducks must be even fatter and bigger.

The image of roast duck involuntarily popped into her mind, and saliva started flowing in her mouth.

"Prestige, prestige, let's just wait here for a duck to come to us!"

Since there are eggs in all these nests, the duck parents must have gone out to forage. As long as they guard the nest, I'm sure we can catch these few fat ducks.

Zong Yu nodded.

Fang Jinshi had lost her interest in collecting herbs. She had almost found all the herbs she needed, and now she was eagerly anticipating the arrival of Big Fat Duck.

Later, when the fat duck appeared, it wasn't how she had imagined.

After receiving the pastry, Song Changhe continued to squat on the tree, nibbling and keeping an eye out.

It's surprising that some beasts don't take the ordinary path, they don't appear on the ground, but silently show up in the trees.

Song Changhe saw a wild duck flying over his head in a flustered manner, as if something terrible was chasing it behind.

He followed the direction the wild ducks had flown and saw a snake head, as big as his own, appearing. The giant snake's head was on the trunk of a tree less than half a meter away from him.

At that time, Song Changhe was so frightened that his whole body turned cold.

"Oh, a snake! There's a snake!"

He lost his balance and tumbled down from the tree with a thud.

Before he fell, he also remembered to grab the duck.ill worried about winter supplies at home a few days ago, with over twenty people from Ma Fangjia Village coming to the mountains to work.Wages would become even more scarce.She has no place to get fo...
