Chapter 143 The Daughter Sold 7
After the meal, the energetic old man Qian took Ge Sangen to the back mountain and said, "Let's take a walk and see if we can get some game to feed the child. She is too thin."

Ge Sangen fully agreed with the idea of ​​hunting game for his daughter.

The father-in-law and son-in-law left happily.

Upon seeing this, the three boys of the Qian family also ran back home, got a net and a wooden barrel, and went to the fields to catch game.

Even Uncle Qian followed his three sons to join in the fun.

After ten o'clock in the evening, the two groups of people came back one after another.

Ge Sangen happily brought back a plump pheasant, "Yuanchun is in for a treat. My dad and I caught a pheasant not long after we arrived at the mountain, and we also picked up a nest of pheasant eggs."

"That's great. We don't have many eggs at home. I was just thinking of going to Sanniang's house tomorrow to buy some eggs and then cooking one a day for Yuanchun."

"There are more than twenty of them, enough for Yuanchun to eat for a while."

"We can't give all to Yuanchun. We have to leave some for the three boys." Qian Xiaoying smiled, tied up the pheasant legs, and planned to kill it early tomorrow morning.

Old Man Qian came in with a small basket on his back. Hearing what his daughter and son-in-law said, he said, "Don't leave it for them. They are strong. Leave it all for Yuanchun. This girl is so thin. She must not have eaten much good food when she was with her biological parents. If she doesn't nourish herself well, her health will be weak and she will get sick easily."

"Then send some to uncle. I'm grateful for his help with the paperwork today." Ge Sangen suggested, "After work tomorrow, I'll go to the mountain for a walk and maybe I can bring back some good stuff."

Old Man Qian nodded.

After putting down the eggs and about to leave, he saw his son coming back with his three grandchildren.

Qian Xiaosan ran over carrying a small wooden bucket, "Grandpa, sister, aunt, uncle, look, we caught a lot of fish and shrimp."

Yuanchun leaned over to take a look and saw that it was filled with densely packed liquids, which was indeed a lot.

Qian Xiaoying reached out and scooped up a handful of fish. Seeing that they were all as big as her little finger, she said with a smile, "How are you going to cook such a big fish?" Uncle Qian smiled awkwardly, "Although they are a little small, they are still meat. Just make some fish and shrimp soup for Yuanchun to nourish her."

"Aunt, there are frogs. My dad caught three big frogs. You can fry them for my sister."

Qian Xiaoer handed over three big green frogs tied with wild grass to Qian Xiaoying.

Qian Xiaoying smiled, "This is delicious, I'll make it tomorrow night and you all can come over to eat."

……

At night, as there were no empty beds, Yuanchun and Qian Xiaoying slept together. Ge Sangen removed a door and put it on the floor to sleep. It was summer and they felt too hot without a quilt, but they were not afraid of catching a cold.

The next morning, Ge Sangen went to the village carpenter's house and ordered a wooden bed, a wardrobe, a box, and two small wooden stools.

After returning home, he cleaned up the west room and piled all the miscellaneous items into the utility room, leaving only three large vats in the room.

Rural people like to use large clay jars to store grain, which keep out insects and prevent mold.

Just when Ge Sangen was about to move the three large vats to the east room where the couple lived, Yuanchun walked in and asked with a smile, "Dad, is this room for me to live in?"

"Yes, when dad moves these three big vats away, the room will be empty. When the bed and wardrobe are delivered, you can sleep here. There are two new sets of dowry bedding in your mother's box that have not been used. Ask your mother to make one set for you when the time comes."

"Dad, just put these three big vats here. They won't be in the way."

It also makes it easier for her to stuff food in.
