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

It was already past noon when we walked back after selling the fish.

Mao Mingzhu had been blowing the cold wind all morning at the market, and now everyone was unconscious and sneezing.

Mao Xiaosui was a little worried, "You're not suffering from an illness, are you?"

Mao Mingzhu rubbed her nose and said, "I'm afraid it's true. Just go back and take a nap."

"If you are really sick, you won't be cured by just sleeping. I didn't even go a few steps away. Let's go back and get some medicine."

"What kind of medicine should I take? It's free." Mao Mingzhu disagreed. "Just go back and drink some water and sleep. It won't be a big deal if the wind blows."

Mao Xiaosui said nothing more after hearing this.

When he got home, Li Yunshan went inside and lit a fire with a clay pot. He didn't feel cold all the way and his face felt stiff from the cold.

Mao Xiaosui simply washed the small pot he bought last time, poured half a bowl of porridge into it and set it on top to cook.

After sitting by the fire for a while, Li Yunshan went to the backyard to feed the chickens.

The courtyard door kept creaking in the wind outside, as if a storm was coming.

Li Yunshan came back from feeding the chickens and blocked the courtyard door. When the two of them were sitting in front of the brazier waiting for the meal, he said, "I will install the clay stove in two days."

"It always feels like it's going to rain today."

"It looks like it was raining at Master Liu's house yesterday."

"Isn't it all covered up?"

“It’ll be fine if the sun is out, but it will get moldy if it’s not.”

"The stall will require one or two acres of land."

"Almost." Li Yunshan put the boiling pot on the clay pot on the ground and threw two more firewood into it.

The porridge was cooked quickly after simmering it, so she went to the kitchen to get some bowls.

Pour the porridge into a basin, rinse the pot with clean water, and keep the water used to wash the pot for a while to continue washing the pot.

Dig out half a pot of mushrooms and wash them. Put a little lard in the pot, pour the mushrooms in and stir-fry. Add a little water and simmer over fire. Finally, add salt and chopped green onion and take it out of the pot.

After the vegetables are out of the pot, pour the porridge back into the pot, simmer it for a while with the remaining fire in the clay pot, and then you can eat it.

It was very warm while cooking in the house. Li Yunshan went to move the small kitchen table over, and the two of them took off their cotton-padded clothes because of the heat.

Heizi was very comfortable lying next to the brazier and watching.

Li Yunshan took a few bites, then suddenly got up and went out, and when he came back he was carrying a small bowl of salted green onions.

After kneading it, she added a handful of salt, which made it saltier as it was salted.

Li Yunshan always likes to use it in porridge these days, and she wants to make some more in a few days while there are still green onions.

I didn't pay attention to the fire in the basin while eating, and now it's just ashes.

Li Yunshan went to pick up some branches and hay and came back to light the fire again.

Mao Xiaosui washed the pot and went out to pour the swill before she realized it was raining. She put the dishes and chopsticks back in the kitchen and planned to take a nap after sweeping the floor.

Li Yunshan threw two more thick pieces of firewood into the basin and opened the other window far away from the bed a little to let out the smoke.

It rained heavily in the afternoon. When Mao Xiaosui woke up, he felt that his throat was dry and painful.

Li Yunshan was still asleep at the moment, the brazier on the ground had long been extinguished, and the room was a little cold.

She went down and closed the window, poured a bowl of water and drank to moisten her throat.

As soon as he put down the bowl, he heard Li Yunshan say, "I'll take a sip too."

Mao Xiaosui poured him a bowl, and after he finished drinking, he went to a hut. When he came back, he said, "The rain is quite heavy."

The sound frightened her, her voice was so hoarse that she couldn't distinguish between male and female, and it hurt even more when she spoke.

Li Yunshan frowned, "Are you sick?"

She reached out and touched it and said, "It's just a sore throat, but I don't feel any discomfort elsewhere."

Li Yunshan got out of bed, stretched out his hand and tried it on her head, then put his hand on her neck and said, "Maybe it's the wind blowing."

She coughed and said, "I'll drink some hot honey water later."

Li Yunshan nodded, "If you feel any discomfort again, just tell me and I'll get the medicine."

She nodded. It was already getting dark now. She poured out the ashes in the basin, lit the fire again, and dug out half a basin of mushrooms to make stewed rice.

Li Yunshan went out to feed the chickens, and Heizi followed him. After a while, he came back without seeing Heizi.

She glanced outside and found Heizi guarding the grain pile in the yard.

Li Yunshan saw it and said, "There are probably rats."

"It's raining and it's too cold today. It'll be fine as soon as it clears up and we can pack up the food. It's time to pick up soap. There's not enough fungi to eat. We can save some fish but that's enough..."

"When the weather clears, pull the millet over and use a stone roller to remove it."

"It's so tiring. We were busy with other things in the morning, and we will do the same thing in the afternoon. And look at Mr. Liu's house. It's cloudy and sunny today. It might rain. It's safer to do it at home."

There wasn’t much left, and it didn’t matter whether we went to the venue or not. Li Yunshan said, “Let’s go pick up soap nuts first when the weather clears up, and then we’ll dig for fungi together when we finish the millet business and catch fish.”

Mao Xiaosui naturally had no objection. On the one hand, she didn't want to go to the threshing field because she was tired. On the other hand, she couldn't help Li Yunshan. Being so tired every time was like losing half her life, which was no fun.

Heizi didn't come in until after dinner. Mao Xiaosui washed the pot and poured out the swill, and found it circling around the pile of millet.

She went up to a hut and blocked the courtyard door. She called out when she entered the house.

Heizi shouted twice and then followed in.

Li Yunshan came back with firewood. When he saw this, he said, "Let it catch it. Open the door of the firewood shed. If it gets cold, it will go to sleep on its own."

Mao Xiaosui had no choice but to let it out, blocked the door and lay down on the bed.

She felt sick all over when she had just eaten, and now she felt very dizzy when it touched the bed.

She muttered to herself that she couldn't be so unlucky, and fell asleep the next moment.

_

I fell asleep as if in a coma. When I woke up, Li Yunshan was not there. The wood in the brazier was almost finished burning, and there was still a small pot on the ground.

I feel dizzy, always feel nauseous, my throat hurts, and I feel uncomfortable everywhere.

When Heizi saw that she was awake and came over, Mao Xiaosui pinched her face and played with it before getting out of bed.

She went to a hut first, but she didn't see Li Yunshan inside or outside. She also felt strange that it was still raining, so he wouldn't go to the mountain.

After washing up, I added a little water to the small hot pot and put it on the brazier to cook. Then I went to the kitchen to get myself some salted onions.

When the pot boiled again, she put the porridge into a bowl and had just finished two mouthfuls. Heizi screamed and ran out.

She thought it was Li Yunshan who was back and didn't care. She didn't call Heizi back until she heard Lu Xiaoxia's voice.

Lu Xiaoxia came in from the door and said with a smile, "This Heizi didn't scream before, why is he so fierce today?"

Mao Xiaosui didn't reply, but asked her, "What's the matter?"

"Is eldest brother back?"

Mao Xiaosui wanted to roll his eyes and thought to himself, you ask me every time you come here if you have any ideas or something, but he still replied, "No, I don't even know where I went."

She entered the door, sat down on the stool, and warmed herself by the fire before saying, "I met you this morning and said that I went to the market to get you some medicine."

She was a little surprised, but still asked, "Then what do you want to do with him?"

"Grandma is also sick. She said that my eldest brother went to the market to buy some medicine, so she asked me to take some."

"Yes?" She stared at her suspiciously, showing no intention of moving away.

Lu Xiaoxia looked embarrassed and forced herself to explain, "I only found out when grandma asked me to come up."

She stopped talking, picked up the bowl and started eating again.

She probably felt embarrassed, so she left after sitting for a while.

When he said hello before leaving, Mao Xiaosui ignored him. Heizi yelled and ran out as soon as he stood up. After a while, Li Yunshan walked in with medicine.

She didn't seem surprised to see Lu Xiaoxia, and just asked Mao Xiaosui, "How do you feel?"

She shook her head and said, "It's uncomfortable."

Lu Xiaoxia, who was ignored by the two, stiffened her hair and said, "Brother, grandma said she was feeling uncomfortable too. She said you should have some extra when you went to get medicine, so she asked you to give her one."

Li Yunshan then looked at her and said calmly, "I asked her this morning and said she could help bring it. She said she didn't want it, so I just bought the small one."

Lu Xiaoxia's face felt hot when he stared at her, but she continued, "Maybe I didn't feel uncomfortable this morning."

Li Yunshan ignored her and said to Mao Xiaosui, "I'm going to borrow a medicine jar from my aunt's house." After that, he left.

Lu Xiaoxia, who was left hanging, couldn't help but feel resentful. She hated the old lady for making her do these embarrassing things every time, and she also hated Mao Xiaosui and Mao Xiaosui for embarrassing her.

Mao Xiaosui didn't look at her at all. He had already picked up the bowl and started eating again. Even when Lu Xiaoxia opened the curtain and went out, he didn't even raise his eyes.
