The chopsticks have already been put down in the main room, but the children are still eating outside, and they can't go out right away, so everyone has to chat.

   It happened that the autumn harvest had just ended, and everyone was talking about this year’s harvest and next year’s sowing.

   As soon as Mu Yangling came in, he saw Liu He and Liu Daqian who were facing the door.

   Liu He waved at her and smiled, "A Ling is here? Come to Uncle's side."

   Mu Yangling smiled slightly, walked over, and saluted in groups, "Hello uncles, hello cousins."

   Liu He laughed, "You are still so polite, you came back from the town? Where's your father? Have you come back from the county?"

   "I'm back, he's at home, I'll accompany my brother to play."

  Liu He knew that Mu Shi didn't care about this matter at all, and only let his daughter handle it. He knew that Mu Shi loved his daughter, but he didn't expect to let Mu Yangling be so indulgent.

Liu He breathed a sigh of relief and said to Mu Yangling: "Good boy, I know it's good intentions for you to bring your cousins ​​into the mountains, but we are farmers, and the most important thing is farming, so they won't follow you. Mountain, work at home."

"I know what my uncles are worried about, it's just that other people in the village will come to my house. I really need to thank my uncle for thinking about our Mu family. I haven't thought about this before, but I still want to bring everyone in Mountain."

Mu Yangling said: "Recently, there are more and more rabbits in the mountains, and now there is a trend of more and more. In the past, after I finished hunting in the west, I would move to the east the next day, and then slowly go east. Move, and come back after about two months, so that I don’t have to worry about the prey in one place being hunted and reducing too much, but in the past half month, I have hardly changed places. A hare that can carry a basket on its back."

   Liu He and Liu Daqian looked at each other and said solemnly, "You mean there are many hares in the mountains?"

   Mu Yangling nodded, "It's about to be a disaster. If you don't catch more in the autumn, after the winter, I'm afraid it will harm the crops grown in the village."

They had never seen    rabbits in the mountains harming the crops in the fields, but Liu He had heard that those rabbits could dig out the roots when they were hungry, which was only slightly more harmful than the voles.

"That's why I took my four cousins ​​into the mountain. Since other people in the village have opinions, then my uncle might as well divide the forty-seven households into five teams, and send one team to follow me into the mountain every day. The people are divided equally, but I also have a request."

   As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the main room, Liu Daqian looked at Mu Yangling anxiously, but everyone else looked at her with bright eyes.

  Liu He Wei sat up straight, "You said."

"I brought them into the mountain, but my intention was to feel sorry for those children, and, as everyone knows, my Mu family lived by hunting, so the prey you hunted is not allowed to go to the town and Mingshui County. If you sell it, you can only keep it for your own food, if you want to sell it, you have to go out of Qili Township and Mingshui County.”

   Liu He pondered for a while, and said, "You are still a child, why do you have to tell your father about this..."

   Mu Yangling shook his head, "I can call the shots on this matter, uncle just don't worry."

  Liu Daqian interjected: "Then we can't take advantage of you in vain, child, how about half of the prey entering the mountains?"

Mu Yangling pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Uncle, there are a lot of prey collected in the town and in the county. I can't sell it if I want so much. My mother is pregnant now, and making jerky will smoke her. Mu Yangling thought for a while and said, "Why don't we do this, each household divides half of the rabbit skins that I peel off every day, how about that?"

   She doesn't want the rabbit meat, but the rabbit skin can be sold. When the tanning is finished, the old lady will make leather coats, gloves and hats for them to live a warm winter.

   Such a small request, Liu and the others naturally complied.

Mu Yangling got up and said: "Take out my uncle Ting Biao and Yuan Biao alone, so there are forty-five households, each team has nine people, and then count the two of them in, each time two of them They have to follow, and the people in the village listen to their arrangements, I am only responsible for bringing them in and teaching them to set traps and hunt, and leave the management of people to my two cousins.”

That means that Liu Ting and Liu Yuan can join the team every time, and get their prey every time. Everyone knows that she is taking care of her two uncles. There are differences in kinship. No one has an opinion, and everyone nodded in agreement. Down.

   Mu Yangling said again: "There is no grown-up male in Widow Liu's house. When it was her turn, her prey came out from my two cousins."

   Only Widow Liu, the head of the household in the whole village, was only five years old. Widow Liu could not follow him into the mountain, and things came from Liuting and Liuyuan, so everyone had no opinion.

The people who came to Liu's family did not expect such a surprise. Even if they were teased by Liu Ting, it would not affect their good mood. Everyone looked at Mu Yangling with relief, and felt that it was not a loss to the Mu family, and their hearts were kind. .

Seeing that the matter was finished, Mu Yangling got up and said: "Then uncles, let's arrange, we will enter the mountain the day after tomorrow." After a pause, he pretended to be unintentional and said, "By the way, what happened to the aunt? Entering the mountain. Will it delay the aunt's affairs?"

   "No, no," Liu He promised, "I will personally take your uncle to Xishan Village to see your aunt in a few days, and I will also go to say hello at the chief."

   Liu Daqian's eyes lit up. Liu He was not only the village chief of Linshan Village, but also the patriarch of the Liu family. If he could be invited, the amount would not be ordinary. Besides, Liu He could also ask the li chief.

  Mu Yangling didn't expect such a surprise, and the smile on his face was more sincere, "Then wait for you to divide into teams, wait for me at the foot of the mountain the day after tomorrow, and I'll go back and tell my father."

   "Okay, okay, you can go back, I'll do the statistics today, and we'll be able to divide it tomorrow, and ask your two cousins ​​to take someone there early in the morning." Liu He personally got up and escorted Mu Yangling out.

Fang Liu listened to the general idea in the kitchen, saw Mu Yangling rushing out, hurriedly ran over and said, "A-Ling, if you make up your two cousins, why not make up your uncle too, and let them three I'll help you lead the team together."

   Mu Yangling snorted: "I don't like Uncle Zhuzi, so I don't need to say more about my aunt." Anyway, she's just a nine-year-old child, so what if she is more willful?

   Liu He also shouted: "Fang Liu, there is no place for you to speak, let me out."

  Fang Liu blushed and was about to say something when Mu Yangling said, "My father is back and is waiting for me at home. If my aunt is not happy, she can come to my house and talk to my father."

   Where does Fang Liu dare? He could only suppress his temper and watch Mu Yangling pull Xiao Bowen away.

  Xiao Bowen jumped forward and said, "Sister, Daddy said that he will send me to school next spring."

   "Then I'll get up every morning and carry you with me, okay?"

   "I don't want it," Xiao Bowen said proudly, "I can go by myself."

   Mu Yangling patted his head, "You're going to school next year, so you have to learn a few more words, so that you won't be overtaken when you go to school."

   Xiao Bowen immediately said with great pride: "No problem, I will definitely be the first in the test."

   Mu Yangling took her brother by the hand and returned home. Mu Shi was sitting in the yard waiting for her, "Come back? Come and tell Dad what happened to you again?"

   Mu Yangling squatted in front of his father, and Xiao Bowen followed suit, squatting with his sister with his chin staggered, Mu Shi looked at the big and small in front of him, and the anger in his heart suddenly disappeared.
