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

It was already ten days since Li Yunshan and Zhao Hui came back.

It had just snowed a little the night before, and the road was muddy. Their shoes and pants were covered in mud, and they looked in a miserable state.

Mao Xiaosui looked at Liu Xiaozhen and said, "Go back quickly."

Liu Xiaozhen looked at the basket Li Yunshan was carrying and stood still.

Mao Xiaosui frowned and his tone became tougher, "Don't let me chase you away."

Liu Xiaozhen just left.

Mao Xiaosui looked at the car and asked, "What's in the sack?"

"Charcoal and cotton." Li Yunshan untied the mule and asked Zhao Hui to go to the pen, carry down the sacks, and put the car away.

Without her help, Li Yunshan carried the sack into the yard.

Mao Xiaosui also quickly took some branches and hay and lit the mud stove in the side room.

The kang in the side room has been lit these days. The reason for the small room is not that it is very cold.

When she finished cleaning up and entered the house, she saw that Li Ruyi and Li Ankang were already eating snacks, and Li Yunshan and Zhao Hui were talking quietly.

"Are you hungry?" she asked.

They both shook their heads, and Li Yunshan said, "We ate it in the town, and we also ate steamed buns on the road."

Mao Xiaosui also sat down after hearing this and asked, "Why are you so late?" This made her worried for several days.

Zhao Hui replied, "I was supposed to come back after selling the rabbit skins. We went shopping in the clothing store in the county and met someone. My cousin chatted with him for a few words and negotiated a business deal."

"Really." Mao Xiaosui was a little surprised. "How big is the business?"

"How big the business will be depends on how you negotiate it in the future." Li Yunshan said, "There are many wealthy businessmen in Su County, and his family is one of them. People like us should not interact with them. That person seemed to have heard me talking to Zhao Hui and then I just came up to talk to him, and the first thing he said was to ask..."

Zhao Hui couldn't help but laugh when he thought about the situation at that time. "He asked his cousin if he was afraid of the tigress at home."

"My cousin was confused by his question. He replied that it was your cousin who made the decision about the family affairs, and he was responsible for running errands. Then the man invited us to a restaurant for a meal out of nowhere..."

Mao Xiaosui felt baffled after hearing this, "Then maybe there will be more business?"

Li Yunshan nodded and couldn't help laughing. "He was quite funny. He said he could take you with him next time he comes to Su County."

Zhao Hui couldn't help but smile again, "He said he wanted to meet you, and he said you must be extraordinary."

Mao Xiaosui was speechless: "Why does this person sound like he has some kind of chuunibyou? Don't you guys be deceived?"

"No." Li Yunshan shook his head. "I inquired afterward and found out that his identity is true, but his family is a bit special."

"for example?"

"It has been passed down from our ancestors that wife control is strict." Li Yunshan said with a smile, "Anyway, it's quite strange in Su County. His father's surname is Jia and his mother's surname is Lin, so he is called Jia Lin. He also has a sister named Lin Jia. This is almost the same. Everyone in Su County knows this..."

"..."

Li Yunshan came back and bought a lot of things this time, including two sacks of cotton, one sack of carbon, and some other random things.

After a cursory glance, she asked, "Is carbon expensive? Do you still have money to buy so much?"

"Yes." Li Yunshan handed her the money bag.

The preparations this time were so hasty that only more than 600 pieces of leather were needed.

The money bag contained a large silver ingot, as well as several broken pieces of silver and copper plates. She couldn't tell how much they were, so she simply asked, "How much is the total here?"

"That silver ingot is fifty taels, and the broken silver adds up to less than twenty taels."

"Where's this sack of carbon?"

Li Yunshan said, "Thirteen taels."

Mao Xiaosui's eyes widened. "So expensive? What kind of carbon?"

"The gray charcoal usually used by people with a small amount of money is not expensive among charcoal." Li Yunshan smiled. "I heard that one piece can be burned all night, which is quite magical. I originally wanted to buy more, but it was too expensive."

"Fortunately, you didn't buy it." Mao Xiaosui said, "I bought firewood from Liuye's family and Qihua's family. They should have almost prepared it. You can go and take inventory later."

As soon as he finished speaking, Heizi screamed in his throat. Zhao Hui opened the curtain and took a look, and saw Qi Bin walking in.

Qi Bin smiled and said, "I saw you guys coming back from afar."

"Come in and sit down." Zhao Hui asked him to enter the room.

Before he could speak, Li Yunshan said, "Let's go, we're going to see Chai."

Qi Bin waved his hand, "It's not about firewood. My mother wants me to buy two rabbit meat."

"Dried meat or freshly peeled meat?" Mao Xiaosui asked.

"It's peeled now." Qi Bin said, "Xiaotian is going back to her parents' house. She originally planned to go there after the New Year, but she was afraid of heavy snow, so she decided to go there early. My mother asked us to bring two rabbits there so they could try it too. One taste.”

"When do you want it?" Li Yunshan asked.

"Tomorrow morning."

Li Yunshan nodded, "Come and get it tomorrow morning." He stood up and said, "I'm just going to see the firewood."

Zhao Hui and Li Yunshan left with Qi Bin.

Mao Xiaosui then looked at the two children who were eating. He took a look and found that Li Yunshan had bought a lot of things.

Desserts, candies, preserved fruits and melon seeds.

Melon seeds? Mao Xiaosui quickly grabbed one and ate it.

A little salty, plus the unique fragrance of melon seeds.

Li Ruyi tilted her head and asked, "Isn't it good, mother?"

"It's delicious." Mao Xiaosui grabbed another handful.

Li Yunshan bought a lot, and Mao Xiaosui took them apart and put them away for eating, and took the rest and put them away, planning to eat them during the New Year.

When I was sorting out the basket, I discovered that there were still two jars of wine inside.

She also took it and put it away together. When she returned to the house, she saw Li Ruyi and Li Ankang arguing over a piece of snack.

Mao Xiaosui glanced at the two people who were staring at each other, pinched some snacks and put them in his mouth.

After the dim sum was gone, the two children stopped and went to eat other things.

Not long after the two went out, Qi Bin and Qi Hua came up with firewood, piled it on the old firewood and left. After a while, Li Tian and Li Sheng also pulled the cart up.

After Li Yunshan came back, he stood in the yard until the two families finished hauling firewood.

Li Yunshan then said, "Uncle Qi's family has seven cars, Master Liu's family has six cars."

He looked at Mao Xiaosui and said, "One hundred copper coins per cart."

Mao Xiaosui went to get the silver.

After collecting the money, Li Tian asked again, "Do you want more?"

Li Yunshan nodded, "I want another twenty cars. If you have them, bring them over."

The two families nodded and left.

Mao Xiaosui looked at Lao Gao's stack of firewood and said, "It's only one or two or three dollars for so much. Do you think you've lost money by buying carbon?"

Li Yunshan laughed, "If you take a piece of charcoal and burn it, you'll know whether it's a loss or not."

Carbon is naturally good, but when Mao Xiaosui thought about how much firewood he could buy for thirteen taels of silver, he always felt that it was not cost-effective.

After dinner was a little early in the evening, Li Yunshan and Zhao Hui went to the side room to wash up. When they came back, Mao Xiaosui said, "Let's just build a bathing room."

Li Yunshan thought for a moment and thought it would be a good idea to build one, so he asked, "Build it in the yard?"

"Anything is fine." She said, "Anyway, just cover it up. We wash less when it's cold, but we wash it every day when it's hot. It's inconvenient to not have a place to cover it."

"Okay." Li Yunshan responded, and quickly asked as if he remembered something, "Have you seen the flower seeds?"

"where?"

"Not in the basket?" Li Yunshan frowned, then walked out. The door to the side room opened and closed twice, and he came back with a wooden box after a while.

"It's called Tenghua. I don't know what it looks like. I heard from the boss that it's red and pretty. It costs forty coppers."

"It's quite expensive." Mao Xiaosui opened it and took a look. They were all small black and flat particles. He didn't know what kind they were.

Before going to bed, Li Yunshan took a piece of charcoal and threw it into the stove. As soon as he was lying on the kang, Mao Xiaosui suddenly sat up and said, "The rabbit is not peeled."

At this moment, the genius was just numb, and Li Yunshan didn't want to move anymore, so he said, "I'll peel it off tomorrow morning." Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep peacefully.

The two of them skinned the rabbit very quickly, and they could do it in time in the morning. Thinking of this, she lay back down.
