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

Soap is easy to make. Li Yunshan can make it by himself. Mao Xiaosui didn't interfere. He folded and put away the clothes and diapers brought by the Ding family, and took the half-made clothes in the morning and started making them.

He smiled and said, "I was still worried about what clothes to prepare, but my sister-in-law actually helped me prepare them."

Li Yunshan also laughed.

When it was dark in the afternoon, there was a lot of movement in the village. When she went out to take a look, she found that people from the theater had returned.

After waiting for a while, Mao Mingzhu and others came up the slope. She asked, "Is the show good?"

"I didn't see it." Mao Mingzhu replied with a smile, "There were too many people and I couldn't squeeze in. I just went to join in the fun."

"Are there many people?"

"There are a lot of people, and there are quite a few people who have lost their children." Mao Mingzhu said, "I went in first, and I was frozen to death."

Mao Xiaosui responded and blocked the courtyard door and returned to the house.

Li Yunshan was already asleep in the room. Mao Xiaosui added two large pieces of firewood to the clay stove, took off his cotton-padded clothes and went to sleep.

There was a lot of snow around the time, and it was cloudy when I woke up the next day. When Li Yunshan came back from feeding the chickens and rabbits, it started to rain before he even finished his meal.

The village was very lively after the meal yesterday, but today it was quiet and there was no movement. It must be that after the liveliness yesterday, everyone took a rest today.

Mao Xiaosui went to get four eggs and came back and boiled them in a small pot. After they were cooked, he cracked the eggshells and rolled them back and forth in the palm of his hand. After rolling, he blew the soil on the lid of the clay stove and rolled it. Put the eggs on top and bake.

This was the first time Li Yunshan had seen this way of eating, so he also imitated her by cracking the eggshells and putting them on the grill.

Ask "Why do you eat like this?"

"It smells good." Mao Xiaosui poked a few holes in the eggs to prevent them from exploding.

Li Yunshan didn't understand it very well, and he didn't look shocked until he smelled the fragrance.

The eggs baked in this way smell different from boiled or fried eggs.

Mao Xiaosui turned the eggs over and continued to bake them. He asked with a smile, "Does it smell good?"

Li Yunshan nodded and waited until the egg shells turned brown and the egg whites were burnt before asking, "Can it be eaten?"

Mao Xiaosui glanced at it, nodded, stuck the needle into his clothes, picked up a roasted hot egg and peeled it.

The egg shell was baked and stuck to the egg. It was a little difficult to peel off and it was very hot.

Li Yunshan handed the pitted piece in his hand to her, took the one in Mao Xiaosui's hand and started peeling it off again.

Mao Xiaosui split the egg into two, blew it and handed it to his mouth.

Li Yunshan opened his mouth to eat, and he exhaled because the egg yolk was so hot.

Each of them ate two of the four eggs. Just as he was about to throw the eggshells into the clay oven and burn them, Heizi stood up and let out a vague cry.

Mao Xiaosui knew someone was coming when she saw it. In order to boil the eggs, she blocked the door. She quickly threw the egg shells into the clay oven and planned to open the door.

As soon as I reached the yard, the door rang.

She thought it was Mao Mingzhu, but when she opened the door, she realized it was the village chief.

The village chief looked inside and asked, "Is Yunshan here?"

"I'm here." Mao Xiaosui made way and greeted, "Second Grandpa, sit down in the room."

The village chief put his hands behind his back and walked in slowly.

Mao Xiaosui stared from behind and asked, "What's wrong with Grandpa Second's foot?"

The village chief said, “As I get older, I feel pain when the weather gets cold.

Li Yunshan had already come out after hearing the commotion, and raised the curtain to let the village chief in.

The village chief sat down on the stool, looked at Li Yunshan and said, "I'm here for something."

"You tell me." Li Yunshan brought a bowl and poured water for him.

The village chief then said, "It's like this. The elders in the village... are all getting older. The separation of families will happen sooner or later. I wasn't in a hurry at first in the past two years, but your fourth master's family has been so noisy that it can't survive anymore. Your fourth master came to see me a few days ago, and we discussed it and planned to build a new village next to Lu's house, so that the people in the village would not be scattered."

Li Yunshan nodded.

The village chief added, "This matter has nothing to do with you, but you are a descendant of the Li family after all, so you still have to do your part."

When Mao Xiaosui heard this, she thought she was here to ask for money. Naturally, she couldn't speak if Li Yunshan didn't speak.

Then I heard the village chief say, "When the time comes to dig the ground and build it, I will need your help."

Li Yunshan nodded and said, "Yes, when?"

"After the spring planting is over after the new year, I will come over to ask you what you want. If you agree, I will inform you then."

"Okay." Li Yunshan said, "Just let me know when the time comes."

"Sure." The village chief laughed, patted his shoulder and said, "I knew you were a good boy."

"I also told Yun Qiang yesterday..." The village chief shook his head and said nothing more.

The two of them sent him out, and when they were far away, Mao Xiaosui said, "I thought he was here to ask for money."

Li Yunshan laughed and said, "How can you ask us for this kind of money?"

"I got it wrong." Mao Xiaosui said, "Do you want to help from beginning to end or for a few days?"

"Just clean up the place and I won't care if they build a house."

Mao Xiaosui nodded.

The year flew by, and on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the Zhao family came again.

This time it was Zhao Hui, the cousin the Zhao family said wanted to see their mother-in-law.

He is fifteen or sixteen years old, not tall, but not short either. Compared with several other members of the Zhao family, this man feels naive to her.

Holding a piece of meat as big as a palm in his hand, he asked with a smile, "Are you my cousin-in-law?"

Mao Xiaosui looked cold and asked directly, "Are you here to borrow money again?"

Zhao Hui nodded and asked, "Can I go in and talk?"

They were talking quite loudly, and Li Yunshan had no intention of coming out. She probably didn't want to see him, so she shook her head, "I don't have any money at home to lend you, so you can go back."

Zhao Hui still smiled after hearing this, handed over the piece of meat, and said, "Forget it if you don't have it. Cousin, please go in. Don't be cold."

He acted like an unreasonable shrew. He suddenly felt uncomfortable and his tone could not help but soften, "I don't want the meat anymore. You can take it back."

Zhao Hui put the meat on the ground, smiled and said, "Cousin, you're welcome, take it back and eat it." After that, he left.

Mao Xiaosui watched him in shock as he walked down the slope and then walked in with the meat.

Li Yunshan couldn't help but frown when looking at the meat, and asked, "Where are the people?"

"He's gone." Mao Xiaosui still felt incredible, "He's nothing like his parents. He's always stalking and looks a bit silly."

Li Yunshan frowned, "I don't know. I only know that my mother's surname is Zhao and where the Zhao family is. I haven't asked about the rest."

"Then what happened to the meat?"

Li Yunshan picked it up, weighed it, and said, "One pound." Then he said, "Put it in the grain room, just in case you come back to get it again."

Mao Xiaosui carried it and put it away. Instead of putting it with the rest of the meat at home, he casually hung it on the rope hanging from the beam.
