From Fiancée to Slum : A Tale of Loss Chapter 114

Chapter 114 : You are noble, you are amazing

Jiang Ting was full of righteousness. She stood on a high place and condemned Jiang Yu unscrupulously.

“You even brought outsiders here to pick them! Those chestnuts and persimmons are in our Nanghe Village, we don’t even know about them, why should we give them to outsiders! Jiang Yu, you are a Nanghe Villager, but you are a heartless bastard!”

Lai Liu Zi and Tieniu looked at each other. It seemed that their sister-in-law had a bad relationship with her.

“I’ve thought about it carefully. What you said is quite right. Since you want to know where it is, I’ll tell you.”

Jiang Ting was overjoyed and said happily, “You are not so heartless after all.”

Jiang Yu winked at Lai Liu Zi and Tieniu, “Let’s go.”

Jiang Ting snorted and laughed. She must pick more today and take them home so that Lin Hongxia can praise her.

She was full of pride and satisfaction, but on the way she saw her fellow villagers hurrying up the mountain in groups.

“There must be treasures on this mountain. Why are so many people going up the mountain?” Jiang Ting muttered.

Jiang Yu smiled and said, “Just like you, picking chestnuts and persimmons in the mountains.”

Jiang Ting’s face changed drastically, “What does this mean?”

“I thought about it last night and realized that I really can’t be too selfish. These are things I found in the back hills of Nanghe Village. I should give back to the villagers, so I specially told them where to pick chestnuts! Your sister is so noble, are you happy, surprised, and surprised?”

Jiang Ting was almost furious and screamed like crazy.

“Jiang Yu, you did it on purpose!”

Jiang Yu blinked, “What did I do on purpose?”

Jiang Ting’s eyes were bloodshot and she gritted her teeth viciously.

“We haven’t even picked the food at home yet, why are you telling others where to pick the food? If they pick all the food, is there any share for us?”

Jiang Yu clicked his tongue and looked at her with a condemning look.

“Your awareness is not good. It doesn’t matter who picks the fruits. As long as our fellow villagers in Nanghe Village pick them, isn’t it the same? We are all from Nanghe Village. Who is nobler than who? Why should we leave them for our family? I definitely can’t do such a selfish thing against my conscience!”

“Good!” He Youfu shouted, “Everyone listen, Jiang Yu’s awareness is worth learning from!”

Jiang Yu hurriedly said, “Uncle Youfu, I don’t deserve this. I just think that winter is coming soon and everyone needs to stock up on food and vegetables. There are not many chestnuts and persimmons, so it’s good to fill the stomachs of the villagers. Jiang Ting was just distracted for a moment, please don’t mind!”

In such a comparison, everyone felt that Jiang Ting was even more hateful.

“A child’s character can be seen from his childhood. Jiang Yu has been kind since she was young.”

“No wonder Jiang Yu married well. If it were me, I would choose Jiang Yu too. This girl is honest.”

“Jiang Ting is really crooked. Although Jiang Yonghua and Wang Meili are stupid, they are not so bad.”

“If you ask me, she doesn’t look like her parents. She looks exactly like her grandmother.”

Jiang Ting was so angry that her face was distorted and her face turned blue from the anger.

“Good! Good! You are so noble and great. I’ll beat you to death when our parents come back!”

After yelling, she ran up the mountain quickly, because if she was too late, the things would be gone.

Jiang Yu sighed, looking puzzled “I did a good thing, why did my parents beat me?”

He Youfu patted her shoulder and said, “If you have any problems, just call us. The uncles and aunts are here to protect you!”

Jiang Yu smiled sweetly, “Thank you, Uncle Youfu. I’ll go to the mountain to see if there are any more persimmon trees. I’ll let you know later.”

“Okay, go ahead.”

Jiang Yu took Jiang Ye with him, and the four of them went up the mountain, but they went in another direction.

“I usually trap pheasants and rabbits in this area.”

But the prey is not easy to catch, and he is not a very lucky man. Basically, he fails eight out of ten times.

It can be seen how long he has been saving the pheasants in his chicken coop.

Jiang Yu was also hoping to catch some prey, but he looked through all the traps set by Jiang Ye and didn’t even see a chicken feather.

Liu Zi and Tieniu could not hide their disappointment. It seemed like their trip was in vain.

Jiang Yu continued to walk inside and saw a few squirrels.

“I haven’t been to this area yet.”

Everyone said that there were a lot of prey in this area and it was dangerous, so she basically didn’t go there.

Jiang Yu took a stick and poked here and probed there.

Suddenly, the stick accidentally poked into a hole.

A rabbit quickly jumped out from another hole, and Jiang Yu immediately dropped his stick and chased it.

As a result, the rabbit was stupid enough and bumped into a thick tree trunk and fainted.

Jiang Yu: “…” The prey has learned how to scam people.

“Come here quickly!” she shouted.

Jiang Ye and the others looked over, their eyes wide with disbelief.

How had it only been a short time, and she was already holding a rabbit?

“Sister, where did you get that rabbit?”

Jiang Yu pointed at the rabbit hole. “It jumped out from there and knocked itself out. How stupid!”

Jiang Ye: “…”

He often roamed this area and had no idea rabbits could be so foolish.

“Don’t just stand there! Guard the rabbit hole, there must be more rabbits inside!” Jiang Yu quickly tied up the fat rabbit she had caught.

She had brought matches with her, and everyone stood guard at the rabbit hole, waiting for the smoke to drive more rabbits out.

After waiting a while with no sign of movement, Tieniu expressed disappointment. “What if there aren’t any more?”

Just as he finished speaking, a rabbit jumped out so fast it looked like an afterimage.

Luckily, Liu Zi was quick and caught it.

“Oh! So fat!”

He immediately tied it up, and soon many more rabbits started popping out of the hole.

They varied in size, a few managed to escape, but Jiang Yu and her companions caught quite a few.

Liu Zi counted and said, “Let’s give the five smaller ones to Aye to raise. This mother rabbit has a baby inside, let’s give that to Aye too.”

They wanted meat, but they weren’t desperate enough to eat a mother rabbit with its young.

They continued walking deeper into the woods and caught two pheasants that flew up in fright and ended up knocking themselves unconscious against tree trunks.

Tieniu sighed, “The prey here seems a bit stupid.”

Despite such foolish prey, Jiang Ye’s traps hadn’t caught any.

Jiang Ye bit his lip, feeling like he was being subtly mocked.

He swore he had never seen such foolish prey before!

Jiang Yu felt she had enough meat, so she shifted her focus to wild vegetables and fruits.

“Is this a Matsutake mushroom?” Jiang Yu exclaimed, nearly falling over in excitement.

She carefully pulled out the mushrooms she had found.

“It’s Matsutake, right?”

Liu Zi examined them closely and confirmed without a doubt, “It’s Matsutake. You still have this good stuff in your mountain.”

Jiang Ye looked confused. “I didn’t know. I’m afraid of poisoning, I’ve never eaten mushrooms from the back mountain.”

He couldn’t tell the difference and was worried about picking poisonous mushrooms.

“Come on, there are still a lot more here!”

Jiang Yu ventured deeper and found another area that looked densely packed with mushrooms.

Since she still had a chicken at home, she picked some to take back for soup.

“You guys should dig some too. If you can’t finish them, you can dry them and save them. In winter, they’ll make a nice dish.”

Unlike in the south, in the north, there are very few edible vegetables in winter aside from cabbage, radishes, and potatoes.
