Chapter 697: Taking Bird Eggs

Goudan is cutting pigweed in the yard.

Recently, Dad no longer needs to chain him.

Seeing as he is quite diligent in his work and obedient.

However, his mother and sister still stared at him closely, as if they were afraid that something would happen to him alone.

Goudan'er is now accustomed to this life. Every day before dawn, he wakes up, has breakfast, and goes up the mountain to hunt pigweed with his sister.

Although his calves are short and he cannot do much, he still works hard.

He wanted to make his father happy.

If their father was unhappy, he would beat them with a belt and a bamboo whip.

Although he was beaten the least, he knew that the belt hitting someone's body felt very uncomfortable.

He once wanted to go outside to see the pheasants and wild ducks by the river, but his father bumped into him, took him back, and beat him severely with a belt. That night, he was in so much pain that he could not sleep all night. sleep.

It took several days for these injuries to heal.

The belt hurts more than the bamboo whip.

From then on, he knew that his father did not want him to go out.

Even if he goes out, his mother and sister must follow him.

He knew that he was the eyeball of the family, and his father only had his only son. If something happened to him.

Neither my mother nor my sister would survive.

Goudan tried hard to become a man.

There was a boy at the door.

"Hey, what's your name?"

Goudan looked at the boy. The boy looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who the boy was.

"My name is Goudan'er, who are you?"

"I am the pillar!"

Baozi looked at Tang Yuan who was working with distress.

It took him more than a month to overcome his adoptive father's wariness.

Now he can go out and play like all the children in the village.

It was because his adoptive father saw that he was wholeheartedly staying here.

From the first time he went out, his adoptive father sent people to follow him secretly. Now, he just goes up the mountains and down to the fields, and comes back after playing nonsense for a long time. His adoptive father has become accustomed to it.

Because he knew he couldn't get out.

This mountain is connected to the mountain.

If you want to go out with your legs, you have to walk for at least ten days and ten nights.

And there are many wild beasts and poisonous snakes in the jungle.

If there were no villagers to lead the way and a child could get out alone, he would not be able to get out of the forest even if he died in this forest.

It's not like there aren't children in the village who want to escape, but when they are finally found, they are either dying of hunger or simply dead.

"Zhuzi, please don't come to my house. My father told me not to let you play with my brother."

Rady suddenly appeared and drove the pillar away aggressively.

Zhuzi said sarcastically, "Lady, why are you so fierce? I only talked to your brother because I saw him feeling bored all alone. There are no children in the whole village like your brother. He is like a little girl, spending all day long. Locked up at home.

You see, my father released me a long time ago. I ran all over the mountains and fields and could do any kind of work. "

Zhu Zhu pointed to the sickle in his hand. He was also preparing to go up the mountain to cut pigweed.

Ladi glanced at the pillar and said, "You are different from my brother."

"You hurry up and leave. If you don't leave, I will call my father and see if he can beat you."

Ladi said threateningly.

Who in the village doesn't know that Goudan'er's father is the tyrant in the village, and who can beat his father?

Even three or five grown men couldn't beat his father.

Zhuzi said angrily, "It's so kind that I don't get rewarded. I originally asked you two to go up the mountain to hunt pigweed. I found two nests of bird eggs in the tree bird's nest on the mountain that day. I originally wanted to take you with me. My son went to hunt pig grass and touched the bird's eggs, and we roasted them and ate them together.

If you don't go, I'll just drop you. I thought I wanted to take you there. I'll go find Gou Sheng'er and the others. They are cute and eat roasted bird eggs. "

As he spoke, he deliberately swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Sure enough, when Ladi heard this, he couldn't help but swallowed his saliva.

Seeing Zhu Zhu preparing to leave, he hurriedly stopped Zhu Zhu.

"Zhuzhu, don't leave. Me and Goudan'er will go up the mountain with you to cut the pigweed with sickles. I just said it to scare you. How can you take it seriously? By the way, you are such a little kid, you can still do it." Climb a tree and you can actually pull out bird eggs.”

Ladi's family is poor and they don't have enough to eat on weekdays. They always go up the mountain to find some wild fruits or something to eat.

But this season has already reached late autumn, and the wild fruits on the mountains have long since disappeared.

Besides, before she could pick them, all the other children in the village would have picked them all, and now it was hard to even find wild vegetables.

The food at home is getting worse every day.

The half bowl of wild vegetable porridge in the morning was said to be wild vegetable porridge, but in fact it was thin and watery. I'm already hungry now.

Otherwise she would feel so hungry after hearing the bird eggs.

Zhu Zhu smiled and said, "Don't underestimate me. I'm very good at climbing trees. You won't believe it. I asked Gou Sheng and them to go there. I've dug out bird's nests several times recently. The eggs are delicious when baked. Once, that There were actually 12 eggs in the bird's nest, and each of them ate three."

These words made Ladi even hungrier.

Urged Goudan hastily.

"Goudan'er, don't talk nonsense here. Hurry up and get the sickle and backpack. Let's leave quickly. Maybe we can eat bird eggs today."

Goudan'er also swallowed eagerly, and his stomach growled with hunger.

Suddenly his eyes lit up because he saw a small pocket hidden inside Zhuzi's clothes. The small pocket looked familiar to him, as if he also had such a pocket.

But where does this pocket go?

Zhu Zi said, "Don't worry. Look at your and your brother's feet. Can you go out like this?"

Goudan'er didn't have shoes on his feet. He was basically barefoot at home. His family was poor. He had a pair of shoes, but he could only wear them when he went out.

Of course, when he went up the mountain to cut grass for pigs or chop wood, he wore straw sandals.

Ladi slapped his forehead. He was so busy thinking about the bird eggs that he forgot about this.

He hurried to the backyard. The straw sandals and other things had been washed and hung on the windowsill in the backyard.

Zhu Zi saw Ladi walking away and took out a pink thing and stuffed it into Tangyuan's mouth.

Tangyuan looked at Zhu Zi in confusion.

"What is this?"

"Stop talking, swallow it quickly, and then look for the bag hanging around your neck in the house. After you find it, bring it out secretly, and let's hurry up the mountain."

Zhu Zi didn't know what happened to Tang Yuan, but he knew that something must have happened to Tang Yuan, because Tang Yuan didn't know him and had forgotten a lot of things. Tang Yuan was very obedient, just like all the children in this village.

And he regarded this place as his home.

He couldn't let his brother become like this, and he couldn't let Tang Yuan become this dog egg for the rest of his life.

He always remembered that his mother said that if they found themselves becoming strange or particularly uncomfortable, they must take a pill in this pocket, and this pill can help them.
