It’s rare to walk this world once—eating is the number one priority!
From the post-apocalyptic wasteland to a harsh and impoverished farming family, even with a disabled elder brother and...
This idea of the Bahrain tribes is risky.
Becoming one with Song Liyun, rather than following her, and sharing life and death, has two possible consequences: one is that they might grow into a large tribe along with Song Liyun.
It is also possible that Song Liyun will suffer a defeat and die at some point, and the Bahraini tribe will be wiped out.
Song Liyun would certainly not refuse such a mutually beneficial arrangement.
Besides, she had already been considering going to the Balin tribe at the entrance of Huangsha Valley in a while, and then returning to the village to see her pregnant sister-in-law; this was just an earlier decision.
Since Yang Hua became pregnant in the first month of the lunar calendar, she has been staying in Xiaoshi Village and has not returned to Suijin Town.
At first, I had severe morning sickness, which didn't subside until I was five months pregnant.
When she wanted to go back, she heard that her younger brother from her maternal family had gone to Chun Tao's house to cause trouble, saying that he wanted money to buy grain, so she never mentioned going back to Suijin Town again.
When Chun Tao found Song Liyun, she was so angry that she cried: "He knew that your house was not easy to enter, so he said that I sold Yang Hua to someone else as a slave and asked me for the money for selling myself."
Song Liyun comforted him, "Why don't you let him come and ask me for money!"
She had experience dealing with a scoundrel, and besides, he was her sister-in-law's brother; even if there was no food, she would still need emergency aid.
Chun Tao wiped away her tears: "I was ashamed of him, so I had my husband tie him up and send him back to the village."
If he causes trouble again, have someone beat his legs.
You know, he used to be such a good young man, but now that Yang Hua has only been married for a short time, he's already acting like a scoundrel.
The couple would argue, and she'd run to her parents' house, ruining their home.
After venting her anger, Chun Tao left.
Song Liyun didn't hide this from Yang Hua and immediately wrote to her asking how to handle it.
To everyone's surprise, Yang Hua replied that she would never return to Suijin Town again. She had already fulfilled her responsibility by raising her younger brother and would no longer care about his life.
If anyone dares to come and cause trouble, they will be sent to the yamen to be flogged.
Song Liyun sighed. She remembered what Han Ming had said. During the time she went to Hecheng, Yang Hua's younger brother came to Baolinju and was reprimanded by Han Ming. Unexpectedly, he went to Chun Tao instead.
However, Song Liyun was not angry that Yang Hua did not return to Suijin Town.
Xiaoshi Village has houses and land, and neighbors to look after you. There are no troubles to come knocking on your door, so staying there is not bad.
However, Yang Hua is already eight months pregnant and could give birth at any time, so I need to send her some baby supplies in advance.
However, before returning to Xiaoshi Village, we must first go to the Balin tribe.
Zhemao was surprised that Song Liyun would agree so readily. He dared not linger in Suijin Town and returned to the tribe that very night to report the news.
On the third day, Baolinju was entrusted to Song Dekui for safekeeping, and Song Liyun set off with a large group of people.
Besides Abu and the Lei Battalion soldiers who had always followed him, Xiao An and Han Ming were also traveling with him.
They haven't met with Bahrain yet, but they'll be going there on this trip.
As Song Liyun's chief steward, Han Ming was in charge of all affairs in Suijin Town, and the Balin tribe would also have to deal with him in the future.
Song Liyun had thought this through carefully. She was marrying into the grasslands, and Xiao An might settle down with her in the Mida River Valley. He needed to adapt to life on the grasslands first.
Before leaving, Yun Niangzi also volunteered to go to the Balin tribe with Song Liyun.
Little Stone and she will be going to the grasslands with Song Liyun in the future, so it's necessary to learn about some tribal customs in advance. Also, she has to take care of Little An.
Yunniangzi was worried that Xiao'an wouldn't be used to the Di people's food, so she could cook for him.
It's still summer, and the Huangsha River flows swiftly downstream.
A road has been paved along the riverbank, allowing mules and horses carrying heavy loads to walk easily.
The beef and mutton, as well as various furs, were brought from the grasslands into the Wu Dynasty in this way.
As a checkpoint, Suijinwei would also conduct a symbolic inspection and record the quantity of goods to facilitate the collection of taxes and commissions.
This was the result of discussions between Song Liyun and Luo Baihu.
Although the garrison also held shares in these fur trades, the accounts still needed to be kept clear and transparent.
Moreover, other caravans will likely pass through here in the future, so it's best to uphold the existing rules for now.
Just as Song Liyun and her group were leaving the pass, Luo Baihu suddenly appeared.
He didn't go down to the pass, but stood on the pass wall, eating a large white pear while shouting down, "Miss Song, I heard the soldiers down below saying that your rabbit meat sells for three hundred coins a piece at Tianxiang Restaurant?"
Before Song Liyun could answer, Han Ming said, "Lord Centurion, did Xue Zhuang complain to you about the low price of rabbits for the military households?"
Luo Baihu chuckled: "I don't care about such things. I just heard that the scented rabbit tastes good, so I was just curious and asked!"
Song Liyun glanced at Han Ming, who seemed hesitant to speak, and waved her hand: "Since Uncle Luo likes them, have someone go to Tianxiang Restaurant later to bring two for Uncle Wang to try!"
Luo Baihu immediately beamed with joy: "You really understand me!"
Scented rabbit is a new dish invented by Zhou Sizhu and his wife. The process is complicated, and the number that can be sold each day is limited.
The price is now extremely high; even at 300 coins each, people still want to buy them.
Luo Baihu couldn't forget it after tasting it, but it was something that Tianxianglou wanted to sell. He was craving it but didn't want to say it directly, so he came to block Song Liyun at the gate.
It's remarkable that such a rough and uncouth man would resort to such clever tricks when it comes to food.
Having received a satisfactory reply, Commander Luo ordered his men to open the hole in the wall, and Song Liyun finally emerged from seclusion.
Abu led the way, with Xiao An riding a horse and carrying Yun Niangzi close behind.
He had Abu teach him to ride a horse before, and his skills were better than Song Zhenping's. Now he often rides between Qili County and Suijin Town, which is convenient for taking Yun Niangzi with him.
Song Liyun and Han Ming walked together.
