Soul Travel: I was bought by the fierce man in the village to farm

The fuss ended up delaying the business. In the end, in order to sell out quickly, Mao Xiaosui bought twenty and got two free.

After packing their things, the two went to Ding's house.

The door of the butcher shop was open, and the first thing Ding Azhuang asked when he saw them was "Do you want to buy meat?"

Li Yunshan glanced at his wooden board and saw that there wasn't much left, so he said, "No money."

Mao Xiaosui asked, "Brother Ding, have you left any bones for me?"

"Keep it." Ding Azhuang wanted to go into the house to help her get it.

She hurriedly said, "I'll go to the house in a while."

"Sure." He looked at Li Yunshan and asked, "Have you finished cleaning up the house?"

"You pulled it back, but you haven't taken it off yet. Where are you at home?"

"There's still a little left."

After leaving the pork shop and walking towards Ding's house, Mao Xiaosui was still surprised, "Why is Ding's house so fast? Does he have a donkey?"

"No."

White smoke was rising from the chimney in the Ding family's kitchen. Mrs. Ding was working on grains in the yard. When she heard the noise, she raised her eyes and immediately laughed, "Hurry up and sit in the house."

Ding Ping'an heard the noise and rushed towards Mao Xiaosui.

Mao Xiaosui picked her up and asked with a smile, "Is the soap I gave you last time good?"

"It's easy to use." Ding Ping'an circled her neck, showing great intimacy.

After entering the house, Mrs. Ding poured water for them. Mao Xiaosui took a sip and then heard Li Yunshan ask, "Do you have any extra oil paper and salt at home?"

"Yes." Auntie Ding asked, "How much do you want?"

"You only need a bowl of salt and a few sheets of greaseproof paper."

Auntie Ding went to get it. Mao Xiaosui took two pieces of newly made soap from the cloth bag and gave it to Ping An, touched her head and said, "These are for you."

Ding Pingan ran out with the soap and ran back quickly.

The voice of Mrs. Ding came in before she even entered the house. She said helplessly, "What I gave you last time was of little use. It would be great if you kept it and sold it for money."

"It's okay, it's not bad."

After hearing this, Mrs. Ding said to Ding Pingan, "Just take what your aunt gave you."

Ding Pingan ran out in a hurry. When he came in, the soap in his hand was gone. He must have put it away.

Auntie Ding took a stack of oiled paper sheets, estimated to have dozens of them, and the salt was put in a cloth bag, which felt strangely heavy to the touch.

Li Yunshan weighed it and took out the money bag from his pocket. He kept a handful of copper coins and poured out the rest without counting them.

Auntie Ding was busy trying to put it back on for him, but she scolded angrily with a fake look on her face, "What are you doing, take it back quickly."

Li Yunshan put away the bag and stood up, "I'll go over and get a piece of meat in a while, and you just keep the money."

Auntie Ding was unwilling to take it and chased after her to put it into Mao Xiaosui's basket. She was so frightened that she quickly got up and hid all the way to the door. After saying something, the two of them left quickly.

After getting bones from the butcher shop, he was stuffed with two spare ribs. On the way home, Li Yunshan explained, "Salt is expensive, and these are about the same amount of copper coins."

Mao Xiaosui didn't think too much, so he nodded, "What you do makes sense."

Salt doesn't go bad easily, even if you buy it and keep it, she won't feel wasteful or angry.

Furthermore, she always felt that it was best for the couple to stay in harmony and not quarrel all the time when they had enough to eat.

Li Yunshan couldn't help but look at her a few more times after hearing her words, and finally laughed.

On the way home, Li Yunshan pulled some grass for the rabbit. Heizi listened to the noise and called. He went to the backyard to feed and get eggs, while Mao Xiaosui went to cook.

She simmered the mushroom rice first and then took a knife to kill the fish.

Li Yunshan came in from the door, and she asked, "Are you alive?"

"Alive." Li Yunshan put the eggs and started to turn over the grains one by one. He said, "Keep them first. If they die, feed them to Heizi. If they grow up, build a new one and raise them in captivity."

"Where to build it? Behind the door?"

"Du Cheng, since the backyard is big, I'm not worried about not having anywhere to go."

Mao Xiaosui suddenly remembered something, "Are the rabbits male or female?" There is no need to bother with the same gender. If there are both male and female, you can raise cubs.

"Two males and one female, let's raise them for a month first. If they don't die in this month, they can basically be raised."

"Okay." She reassured, "Then please be careful."

She threw the fish entrails to Kuroko and went to make soup.

Li Yunshan turned over the grains one by one and then beat them with a stick.

As the soil on the roots of the millet splashed easily with force, Mao Xiaosui hurriedly closed the kitchen doors and windows.

Boil two ladles of water first, and then start frying the fish and making soup.

After lighting the fire in the stove, I went to the backyard.

Use a knife to cut all the onions, put them directly into the bucket and wash them. After washing, put them on a dustpan and put them on a basin to control the water.

After dinner, Li Yunshan went to bed. Mao Xiaosui put the water-controlled green onions on the chopping board, added salt and rubbed them.

The pickles that are to be kept are naturally more salty than those that are eaten now. The people who went to bed at noon were about to wake up after she finished rubbing the green onions and put them away.

She quickly went to a hut and blocked the door before going back to sleep.

Li Yunshan was lying on the edge. He glanced at her as she crawled inside, and soon fell asleep again.

_

The sound of "bang bang bang..." was very noisy in the yard.

When a person is asleep, he has already woken up subconsciously. He realizes that Li Yunshan is photographing Gu Ziren but cannot wake up.

When he opened his eyes again, the millet poles were scattered all over the yard. Li Yunshan carried the rolled poles outside together.

She went to the kitchen and drank some water before sitting down and rubbing her hands.

He woke up later and finished cleaning up later than yesterday. Li Yunshan didn't go to the mountain anymore and went out to fetch water with a bucket.

Li Yunshan was already boiling water in the pot. She took a basin and blocked the door of the main room to clean it. When she just wiped her body, Li Yunshan had already returned.

Her hair was dripping wet after washing. She wiped it with a cloth a few times and went to the kitchen to cook.

The bones and ribs she brought back had been soaked in blood water in the afternoon, and she threw them directly into the pot to cook.

After boiling the water and skimming off the bloody foam, go to the backyard, pick up a handful of green onions, tie them into knots and throw them in to remove the smell.

It takes a long time to cook the bones for soup, so she went to get the shoe she had not finished before and sewed it.

Li Yunshan also changed back into clean clothes. As soon as he sat down, Heizi called to the door.

It was getting cold at night, and both of them were sitting in front of the stove with their hair down to warm themselves up. She quickly tied up her half-dried hair, and then she saw Qi Shu appear at the door.

Li Yunshan also tied his hair with a cloth band, got up and went out.

Mao Xiaosui couldn't hear what the two were talking about at the door. After they left, before she could ask Li Yunshan, he said, "Qi Hong is going to see the girl. Come and borrow money."

"What did you say?"

"No money."

Mao Xiaosui was also speechless. He told them last time that he had no money. Why would he ask them to borrow it?

"How much can I borrow?"

"One tael. If you don't have any, a little less is fine. I said I bought salt at the butcher's shop today. I only have a few copper coins at home."

"I guess Aunt Lu is going to be angry." This person is like this. They usually have a good relationship when there is no benefit, but once something goes wrong and he gets money, he will immediately change his attitude.

Li Yunshan said, "It's not easy to borrow it, and the family doesn't have any money."

"Last time Aunt Lu mentioned it, I said I had no money. I guess she knew we had made a lot of money selling fish and eggs in these two episodes, so she came here to borrow it again."

Li Yunshan shook his head, "This other people's money belongs to other people. There is no reason why they must borrow it from others if they want to."

Mao Xiaosui naturally understood this truth, but he was still curious, "Isn't Aunt Lu's eldest daughter just married a few years ago? Why does Qi Hong still need to borrow money to marry his wife?"

"Old Mrs. Qi has always been in poor health. Taking medicine every year costs a lot of money. Qi Lingyue got married when she was fourteen. The reason is that the family has no money to take medicine."

"The relationship between the Qi family just separated is not as good as it is now."

"Qi Shu's family has seven acres of land, and Qi Hua's family has five acres. Of course, Qi Hua was not willing to lose two acres of land, but there was no quarrel. The relationship was just lukewarm. It wasn't until the Qi Shu family came to the end of the year. Qi Lingyue, who is 20 years old, is married off in exchange for money..."

"Later, Mrs. Qi survived for a year and died, and the relationship between the two families has never been bad."

"Is there such a thing?"

"This is not a strange thing. There are many separated families in the village who are not noisy."

"Seven acres of land is quite a lot. There are only four people in Qi Shu's family. They need a lot of food in a year. Why are they still short of money?"

"And I think Aunt Lu and the others didn't seem to be able to give up food in the past, right?"

"People in the village are reluctant to sell food. Now we have enough to eat. In the future, when Qi Hong and Qi Zhi get married, they will have two more mouths to eat. In one or two years, four to five years... the seven acres of land at home will not be enough to eat."

Mao Mingzhu also said this, and hearing him say it again gave me a creepy feeling.

She still said, "It's not like we are from a rich family. It would be better to have fewer children. If we have so many children, we won't be able to have enough to eat and suffer."

Li Yunshan laughed and said, "Then we will have another baby."

She pretended not to hear, added another fire to the stove, and pushed him, "Take a basin and pick up a larger cabbage, four or five eggs, and half a basin of mushrooms."

Li Yunshan went and got them all back after a while.

After working on and off for half a year, a pair of shoes finally healed. The soup in the pot also smelled very fragrant. She rinsed the fungi with water and put them in to cook. She fried the eggs in another pot, chopped the cabbage and poured it in. , season with salt and pepper.

Li Yunshan didn't wonder why he used the bones to make soup. He moved the table to the yard and picked up a chopstick to rub the green onions at noon.

Mao Xiaosui came out with a full basin. The big bones in it were all chopped and there wasn't much meat. She took a piece for Hei Heizi and gave it some vegetables and soup.

Li Yunshan couldn't wait to take a sip of the soup and nodded, "It's delicious. I'll have some more next time."

Mao Xiaosui gave him a piece of ribs.

There were only two ribs, and they were chopped into just a few pieces. The two of them ate them separately, plus the black ribs, and the whole bowl of soup and vegetables was finally eaten.
