Transmigrated into a slave? I raised a frontier war god while pioneering new lands.

Shen Zhi said she had no problem with close-range, fixed targets, so today she'll try long-range, moving targets.

As he spoke, he stood on the edge of the ground and shot at the small bird that flew over.

At first, Xu Qinghe was full of confidence, but the bird was small and moved quickly.

Xu Qinghe shot ten arrows, nine of which missed their mark, and the remaining arrow grazed the bird.

Even so, Xu Qinghe's arrow still intimidated the birds.

Seeing her standing on the edge of the ground holding a bow, not a single bird came over for a long time.

Shen Chengyue and Shen Chengchuan were exhausted. The two kids ran around fetching arrows for Xu Qinghe, and they were so tired they didn't even want to talk.

"Mom, why don't you just keep shouting? Stop practicing."

You only need to stand on the ground and shout to her, and when shooting arrows, you have to pick up the empty arrows for her.

Xu Qinghe: "Shh! I'll hit it right away." With that, an arrow shot out.

In the end, it still flew past the bird.

Shen Chengyue...

"Mom, stop practicing, I'm hungry."

Xu Qinghe looked up at the bright sun in the sky before putting away her bow and arrows.

After taking the remaining scraps of cloth from his pocket and tying them to the grain of both families, he returned home.

When they arrived home, Xiao Hei was lying listlessly in the shade. As soon as he saw them return, he got up and came to greet them.

Xu Qinghe knew everything was alright at home just by looking at it like this, otherwise Xiao Hei wouldn't be in this state.

After placing the basket in the shade, Xu Qinghe washed her hands before heading into the house.

"Chengyue, Chuanchuan, how about we have fried rice with eggs for lunch?"

While tormenting Xiao Hei, Shen Chengyue readily agreed, "Okay."

Since there were no sausages available, Xu Qinghe's fried rice only contained eggs and vegetables.

Watching the children wolf down their food, Xu Qinghe couldn't help but think that when she had some free time, she would definitely make some sausages for them.

After lunch and a short rest at home, the mother and her two children went to the fields again.

There's no other way; the harvest is just around the corner. If we don't act now, when will we?

When the mother and her two children arrived, the neighbors had not yet returned, and Xu Qinghe guessed that the old man's condition must not be good.

However, whether it was good or bad, it wasn't a matter for their village, so Xu Qinghe didn't worry about it.

Instead, he took a piece of cloth out of his basket and started mending it right there on the ground.

She decided to make herself a face mask. Although the hat on her head could block the sun, Xu Qinghe always felt that it wasn't enough in the middle of summer, and she had to cover her whole face.

So she cut a few holes in the white cloth, took it to the ground, and then sewed two straps from both sides once she got there.

Xu Qinghe quickly sewed up the mask and put it on her face.

Shen Chengyue stared in horror at Xu Qinghe wearing a mask, his mouth agape.

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Xu Qinghe: "Face masks, sun protection ones, do you two want some?"

Shen Chengyue immediately shook his head like a rattle drum, "No, I'm afraid I'll get beaten up if I take him out."

Xu Qinghe: "It's not that exaggerated."

"Let me tell you, if you don't take precautions now, don't come crying to me when you're all tanned and can't find a wife."

Shen Chengyue: "It's okay. I'm afraid if I carry this with me, I'll have to come crying to you."

Xu Qinghe...

"Mom, you can wear this during the day, but please don't wear it at night, it's kind of scary."

Xu Qinghe...

Seeing Shen Chengyue repeatedly belittle her, Xu Qinghe lost the will to argue with him and obediently took out her small bow and arrow to practice archery.

Seeing her posture, Shen Chengyue ran to another place without saying a word.

There's nothing I can do; nine out of ten arrows miss. Running further away to retrieve them will save me some effort.

As for his brother, he can just stay by his mother's side and be at her beck and call!

Anyway, his mother can't let such a young child die from exhaustion.

Compared to his lack of accomplishment in the morning, Xu Qinghe was much more impressive in the afternoon.

At least one out of ten arrows should hit the target. Shen Chengyue looked at the bow and arrow with the magpie stuck in it in disbelief.

Is his mother that strong?

After shooting for an entire afternoon, Xu Qinghe successfully caught three magpies and two sparrows.

The magpie was hit purely because magpies are relatively large.

Before leaving, Xu Qinghe even pinched a handful of grains, rubbed them with her hands, and saw that there was indeed a little bit of millet inside.

But the thought that if the sorghum and rice ripened at the same time made her too busy to manage everything at home, especially since she was the only one there, came to mind.

So he went back and secretly used his supernatural ability to nourish their rice field, so they could definitely harvest it by tomorrow morning.

After confirming the harvest time, Xu Qinghe took her two children home.

As soon as I got home, I washed my hands and started cooking. First, I steamed the rice, and then I went to the vegetable garden to find vegetables.

Just then, Shen Chengchuan suddenly rushed out and said, "Mother, I want to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes."

Xu Qinghe: "Still want to eat?"

"Didn't you just eat breakfast?"

Shen Chengchuan: "Still eating."

With no other option, Xu Qinghe could only make scrambled eggs with tomatoes and stewed potatoes and green beans.

She had already eaten scrambled eggs with tomatoes in the morning, so she didn't think about it anymore. Instead, she added a stew of potatoes and green beans.

At this time of year, stewed potatoes and green beans are incredibly delicious. The potatoes are soft and powdery, and when combined with stir-fried pork belly and tender green beans, it's absolutely perfect with rice.

Perhaps due to excessive exercise, the mother and her two children finished both dishes.

After finishing her meal, Xu Qinghe started tidying up the yard because she had to go harvest the grain early the next morning, and there was definitely no time to do the housework.

Xu Qinghe was busy until 9 PM before she finally stopped, closed the door, and went to rest.

Because Shen Zhi wasn't home, Xu Qinghe checked every corner of the house very carefully.

The gate was locked, Xiao Hei was let out, and Xiao Cai was moved from inside the chicken coop to outside.

Next came the main room door, and then the doors and windows of the house. Just in case, Xu Qinghe even took a candle and shone it on each room.

After making sure the house was clean and tidy, he took his bow and arrows and Chengyue's wooden spear and went back inside.

She felt relieved after locking the door inside. She never cared about these things when Shen Zhi was home before.

I was very alert while sleeping at night, but thankfully nothing serious happened and I slept through the night.

Before dawn, Xu Qinghe would get up and start cooking. This was how it was when there was no way to rush the harvest; she would leave before dawn and not return until dark.

Considering that she might not be able to come back for lunch, Xu Qinghe steamed some cornbread and fried some crushed peanuts so that she could take it to the field to eat without drawing attention.

In addition, Xu Qinghe also fried eggs and meat patties for the two children.

After she finished doing all that, neither of the children woke up. Xu Qinghe hesitated for a moment, then decided not to take them with her in the morning.

They don't have a car, so they have to carry the harvest in baskets on their backs. It won't be too late for her to take them there after she finishes harvesting a basketful.
