Mei Qingyu pursed her lips, a look of melancholy that didn't match her age appeared on her face: "There is no food."

Qiao Huaping couldn't help laughing: "I was worried about this. My Yubao, you have no confidence in me. When did I let you go hungry?"

Mei Qingyu's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he hesitated for a while, and still didn't say anything.

Qiao Huaping knew that Mei Qingyu was used to worrying about the family, and the lack of food would naturally make the child feel insecure.

It's just that she can't say it directly, she still has a lot of prey in her space.

Qiao Huaping thought for a while, put her longbow on her back, told Mei Qingyao to take care of her younger siblings, and went into the deep forest by herself.

Mei Qingyu was a little restless.

It was so dark that it was almost impossible to see clearly, what would she do if she ran into a wild animal when she entered the forest at this time?

Or, just like Aunt Song did before, what if she stepped on the ground and fell off the cliff?

No matter how smart Mei Qingyu is usually, he is still a child. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't bear it, and he got up frequently to look into the woods.

The place to rest tonight is still a relatively gentle terrain outside.

Mei Qingyao groaned and led his younger brothers and sisters to spread the linoleum, and saw that Mei Qingyu wanted to go to the edge of the forest in disbelief.

Mei Qingyao was so frightened that she pulled Mei Qingyu back: "Second Brother, why are you going?"

Mei Qingyu hesitated for a while: "Brother, I'm a little worried that she's still in the woods. It's so dark, and she didn't even have a torch. What if she encounters a wild beast?"

When Mei Qingyu said this, Mei Qingyao couldn't help becoming worried.

He thought for a while, and said to Mei Qingyu: "You go back to accompany the third brother and younger sister, I will wait for her at the edge of the forest. I am strong anyway, if something really happens, I can help."

Mei Qingyu hesitated, then nodded.

He has gained a lot of strength recently, but he still can't break his wrist with his elder brother.

At that time, Qiao Huaping comforted him solemnly, although your elder brother is strong, but your brain is better.

Thinking of this, Mei Qingyu pursed her lips, nodded and said: "Then, brother, you watch here, I'll go back first."

Mei Qingyao was also worried about Qiao Huaping, but he didn't want to show it, so he waved his hand: "Hurry up and go back."

As soon as I said this, I heard a somewhat cheerful voice from the forest: "Hey, I seem to have heard the voices of Yao Yao and Yu Yu?"

It was Qiao Huaping's voice!

The two brothers were shocked, tried to open their eyes wide, and looked towards the direction of the deep forest.

After all, the physical fitness has been improved through the spiritual water, and the eyesight of the two brothers at night is also much better than ordinary people.

They saw Qiao Huaping walking out of the forest with a longbow in one hand and something in the other.

She was smiling and walked out from the dark place of the mountain forest. Only the moonlight passed through the dense forest, and the stars fell on her body, smudged, as if she was covered with a thin layer of veil.

Mei Qingyao and Mei Qingyu stared blankly.

Probably because of the darkness of the night, the birthmark on her face was hidden, and only the outline of her face could be seen.

Mei Qingyao hurriedly looked away as if she had seen a ghost.

He kept muttering in his heart, probably because the light was dark at night, how could he have the illusion that this little stepmother is also a great beauty?

Mei Qingyu didn't think much, just froze in place.

Qiao Huaping stepped out of the dense forest lightly, holding the things in his hands, waving them in front of the eyes of the two children, and said quite proudly: "Look at what I, a sharpshooter, hunted in the forest?"

It was a dead pheasant with a long tail.

Mei Qingyao's eyes widened.

Qiao Huaping's triumphant but not annoying crisp voice sounded: "I thought I would go into the forest to try my luck before it was completely dark. Oh, it must be my luck. How long ago, I saw this silly pheasant. I just shot it casually—hee hee, I’m so good.”

Qiao Huaping was beaming with joy.

She originally planned to go into the forest, put on a show, and then pull out the prey she had hunted long ago from the space, pretending to be the hunted one, so as to calm her family Yu Bao's heart.

She didn't think about it, it must be her luck, she entered the forest, and within a few steps, she ran into this silly pheasant.

She made a decisive decision and shot the wild pheasant to death with one arrow.

Qiao Huaping couldn't be unhappy in the face of this prey that was almost sent for nothing.

Not only her, Mei Qingyao and Mei Qingyu were also very happy - but, this joy was mixed with some, the joy of Qiao Huaping's return safe and sound, the two little guys didn't subdivide it.

In the past, how could they have imagined that they would be happy because this little stepmother came back safe and sound?

Qiao Huaping held the wild pheasant by the neck, like a victorious general, and brought Mei Qingyao and Mei Qingyu, the two handsome followers, back to their resting place.

Mei Qinghuang was playing flower rope with Mei Qingying, when she saw the little stepmother and the elder brother and second brother coming back, she was about to smile at them, but she saw that the little stepmother was carrying a dead wild pheasant in her hand, so I smiled It turned into a mouth-watering surprise: "Wow!"

Qiao Huaping couldn't help laughing out loud: "Huang, take away your greedy cat, this wild pheasant is not for us to eat. I plan to trade it for some food."

Mei Qinghuang wiped his saliva, and although he was a bit greedy for chicken, he nodded sensiblely: "Okay, it's better to change the food."

Qiao Huaping held the wild pheasant by its neck and went outside for a walk: "I just hunted a fresh wild pheasant, does anyone want to change it?"

After fleeing famine for many days, the meat could not be stored, and most of it could only be made into dried meat or salted meat.

Many people have not seen such fresh meat for many days.

Some relatively wealthy families in the village couldn't help swallowing when they saw Qiao Huaping carrying the fat wild pheasant.

Although they had already had their dinner at this moment, it was still difficult to resist the temptation with such fresh meat in front of them.

Soon, someone asked Qiao Huaping: "Sister Qiao's family, is this chicken sold for money?"

On the way to flee famine, although money is important, what Qiao Huaping wants more at this moment is food.

She shook her head: "I just want to change some food. There is no food at home."

Many wealthy households in the village brought a lot of food to the road.

Their family has a large population, there are old and young, and these days, they have been frequently attacked by the aroma of Qiao Huaping's food, and they have long been greedy.

Qiao Huaping was also honest, he didn't ask for more food, this wild pheasant was quite fat, it was estimated to weigh seven or eight catties, and Qiao Huaping only exchanged twenty catties of grain, which was quite a good deal.

Soon, a rich man readily bought twenty catties of grain and exchanged this wild pheasant with Qiao Huaping.
