Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 16: Chapter 16: The Miserable Woman 16

”Grandma, there are too many people digging here. I want to go further into the mountains.”

”If you go further, it will be the deep mountains with wild boars. If you encounter a wild boar, you could lose your life. Yuan Chun, don’t risk your life just for some meat.”

Grandma Feng had already seen through her eldest granddaughter’s thoughts.

Since leaving home today, she had been watching her closely.

Yuan Chun glanced at Ding Chunli, who wasn’t far away, and lowered her voice. ”Grandma, I just want to improve the family’s diet a bit. Look at my sister-in-law, she’s almost five months pregnant, and her belly is so small. The baby must be malnourished. Grandma, you wouldn’t want to see her give birth to a skinny great-grandchild, would you?”

Grandma Feng was silent for a moment, still worried about her granddaughter taking risks. ”Still, you can’t risk your life. Pregnant women in our village all have small bellies, and the children are born looking like kittens, yet they all survive.”

”Grandma, please let me go. I really want to.”

When persuasion failed, Yuan Chun began to pout and nag, giving Grandma Feng a headache. She finally relented, ”I’ll go with you, or else you can’t go.”

Even though bringing along a burden was inconvenient, it was better than not going at all.

Thus, Yuan Chun took Grandma Feng into the deep mountains.

Not long after, Yuan Chun encountered a large rooster. She shushed Grandma Feng and quietly approached the rooster from behind, suddenly pouncing and pinning it beneath her.

laughed, ”Host, you’re too fake. That rooster was immobilized by your energy and couldn’t move. It’s just that Grandma Feng was too nervous to notice.”

”Even if she noticed, what can she do? No matter how wild her imagination is, she would never think I have the power to immobilize prey. She would only think I am incredibly lucky.”

Yuan Chun was right.

After witnessing her granddaughter effortlessly catch three wild rabbits and five pheasants, Grandma Feng marveled that her granddaughter’s luck was exceptional, like she was heaven’s favorite daughter.

Otherwise, why wouldn’t the small animals flee when they saw her granddaughter, instead staying still to be caught?

Surely it couldn’t be that every rabbit and pheasant her granddaughter encountered was a fool.

In the evening, as darkness fell, the two returned home with their baskets full.

When the Feng family saw the two baskets packed with prey, they stared at Yuan Chun like she was some kind of wonder.

”Yuan Chun, how did you manage to hunt so much? Tomorrow, take your second brother with you. He won’t go to chop wood,” Feng Guo’an said, his hands trembling with excitement.

If the five animals she brought back at noon were due to luck, then these two baskets full were skill.

No one expected the little sister to be such a great hunter.

Better than the hunters in the village.

Feng Guoping pushed his brother aside and squeezed in front of his sister, ”Yuan Chun, take me too. I’m strong and can carry a lot.”

”Alright, stop pestering Yuan Chun. We’ll talk about tomorrow later. Let’s go eat first.” After calming down, Feng Dasheng pulled his two sons aside, picked up a basket, and headed toward the kitchen.

These many prey can’t be left out in the yard carelessly, or it’ll be troublesome if someone sees them.

”Yes, yes, food first. Everyone’s tired today. Let’s fill our stomachs before discussing tomorrow,” Qiu Guihua said, picking up another basket and cautiously covering the prey inside with wild herbs before setting the table with her two sisters-in-law.

Half an hour later, after eating, none of the Feng family members left. Dozens of eyes were all fixed on Yuan Chun.
