Chapter 30
A full harvest
Seeing that Zhou Lan was still looking in that direction, Jiang Xia was a little confused, “Mom, What are you looking at? Shouldn’t we hurry?”
“It’s strange. All the sounds suddenly stopped.”
“It stopped?” Jiang Xia suspected that those were the sounds of running animals, but why did they suddenly stop chasing?
Zhou Lan then boldly suggested, “Xiao Xia, why don’t we go back and take a look?”
Zhou Lan was looking at her with sparkling eyes. Jiang Xia thought of her mother’s strength and let out a long sigh and said, “Fine. But mum, you have to protect me! If I get hurt, we don’t have the money to treat it. ”
“Alright! I know! If there’s any danger, I’ll take you away immediately.”
After saying that, Zhou Lan walked back with Jiang Xia in her arms.
The closer they got to the place where the sound disappeared, the more nervous the mother and daughter became. When they were getting near where they were picking wild vegetables, the two stopped and hid behind a tree to observe the situation.
However, what they witnessed was not what the mother and daughter were worried about. They noticed that the place where they had picked the wild vegetables was surrounded by a group of rabbits, deer, sheep, and other herbivores. There was even a wild boar among them.
“Jiang Xia, do you think these animals came here for the wild vegetables?”
Jiang Xia nodded in agreement. Only the part where Jiang Xia had watered was growing new crops. The animals must be here because they smelled the vegetables.
Jiang Xia’s eyes brightened when she saw the increasing number of animals. Was it possible for her to move all these animals into her interspace? If it is possible, then her family would no longer have to worry about food in the future.
But she realized her idea was not right. If she really managed to store these animals in her interspace, they would probably eat up all the grass in just a few days. However, if possible, she could probably store a rabbit or two!
Jiang Xia shared her thoughts with Zhou Lan, who agreed with her.
Jiang Xia decided to tie the rabbit and sheep’s limbs to prevent the animals from running around in her interspace. She would set up a fence in her interspace when she returned to let them free.
The mother and daughter got some branches and waited for an opportunity. The branches were long and thin, just the right kind to be used as ropes.
Jiang Xia thought it would be challenging to catch these animals, but they didn’t seem to sense any danger and only focused on gnawing at the grass.
Zhou Lan gently held down the three rabbits and three sheep while Jiang Xia tied them up and placed them into the interspace.
While the two were packing up, Zhou Lan suddenly thought of a way to make money for their future use. She could find some rare plant seeds and water them with the water from Jiang Xia’s interspace. That way, her family would not have to worry about money in the future.
The two of them began to wander up the mountain to look for it, but it was not easy to find such rare seeds. After searching for a long time, they encountered two unconscious deers who had knocked into a tree instead of finding the seeds they were looking for.
Looking at the hoof prints, they were probably after the wild vegetables, but they ran too fast and hit the tree.
It was already evening when the mother and daughter were done tying up the deers.
When they arrived at the village, Jiang Xia got the deers out of her interspace and dragged the deer together. Fortunately, at this time, everyone was preparing dinner at this time, and few people could be seen on the road.
Zhou Lan saw Jiang Chuan’s figure from a distance. She then let go of the deer and ran toward her him.
Zhou Lan ran so fast that she had utterly forgotten about Jiang Xia. Jiang Xia almost fell to the ground when her mother ran past her.
The deer started to move after it sensed that there was lesser strength pulling it.
Jiang Xia was only a 13-year-old child, her body was thin and small and she couldn’t control the deer. She was being pulled left and right by the deer.
Jiang Xia being stubborn, refused to let go of the deer. She pouted her little mouth and forced herself to walk. She stretched out her feet and kicked it twice, scolding, “You dare to bully me when there’s no one to control you? You bully the weak and fear the strong!”
Pfft! Zhou Lan couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Her daughter had always been smart since she was young and she rarely gets to see her childish side. Now, not only had her body become smaller, but her mental age had also become younger.
