Chapter 7: Producing Silver



Chapter 7: Conjure up Silver Hearing

the movement on the kang, Feng Shi could not take care of directing her sons to work, so she went into the house to see the daughter.

"Did my dear sleep well?" Feng Shi picked up Xiao Nuobao and subconsciously reached out to touch

her. After feeling the dryness on the mattress, she patted the daughter's little butt and couldn't help but kissed her.

"You are really a caring little cotton-padded jacket from your mother. You didn't make a fuss or wet the kang all night, which is much better than your fourth and fifth brothers when they were children."

"Hehe, cool~" Xiao Nuobao stuck out his tongue and responded enthusiastically.

After sleeping in the new home for a night, the fear of being abandoned yesterday also eased, and Xiao Nuobao's original lively personality gradually showed a little.

Feng pulled the dry and cool quilt and happily showed it to the whole family.

After receiving unanimous praise from her brothers, Xiao Nuobao also became "proud", with her rosy little face raised high, waiting to be kissed twice more.

However, her body was too soft, and she accidentally used too much force and almost fell headfirst off the kang.

She was so scared that her little neck shrank, and she quickly lay in Feng's arms, not daring to move.

Feng smiled and coaxed her daughter: "Don't be afraid, mother has been holding you, how can I bear to let our baby fall, Bao'er, are you hungry? Mother will take you to find the second sister-in-law."

After that, Feng carried her to the door to pee, and then handed the little Nuobao to her daughter-in-law's arms, letting her eat "breakfast" first.

Li Qiqiao waited for the whole morning and chased away her son who wanted to feed several times. Now she can finally feed her sister.

"Come, Nuobao, these are all for you." Li Qiqiao opened her collar and rocked the little person in her arms.

Little Nuobao went to bed early last night.

After four or five hours, she was indeed a little hungry.

She pouted her little mouth skillfully and drank it.

Mm, sweet.

Really sweet.

It's just a little greasy...

Chun Ge'er, who was only half a year old, looked at his aunt eating happily. He leaned forward hungry and couldn't help opening his mouth to cry.

Li Qiqiao walked over with Xiao Nuobao in her arms. She didn't like her son and directly put a spoon into Chun Ge's mouth and fed him a big mouthful of cornmeal.

"Wow... Mmm..."

Chun Ge'er couldn't speak yet and could only swallow the food awkwardly.

Xiao Nuobao hugged her second sister-in-law's arm tightly, looked at Chun Ge who could only lie on the side and lick the paste, and swallowed a few mouthfuls of milk with a guilty conscience.

After all, this is the food for her little nephew, and she always monopolizes it, which makes her feel embarrassed.

If the conditions at home were better and the food was richer, the adults would not have to let her drink milk to supplement nutrition.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nuobao blinked and looked at the new home for the first time.

The Jiang family's bungalow only had three small rooms. Not only was it extremely small, but the beams were low and the bricks and tiles were broken. It looked really shabby.

In the house, there were only some pots, pans, and two large rice jars, and no other decorations.

The worst thing was that the rice jars had been empty for a long time, and were drier than their faces.

Only half a bag of cornmeal was left hanging on the beam, which seemed to be the only staple food for the whole family.

The little guy turned his head and stared at the stove.

The food he had just eaten in the morning was still on it.

In addition to the hard stuff that could break his head, there were only pickled vegetables that were almost rotten after being heated several times. It was estimated that they were meant to be eaten at noon.

Xiao Nuobao's eyes were sore as he looked at it.

The family was really poor.

Even so, the second sister-in-law still wanted to save all her milk for herself...

Xiao Nuobao was a little touched and wanted to help the family.

Just when she was anxious, she heard a "bang" and suddenly there were two silver ingots in her hand.

Xiao Nuobao drooled all over the second sister-in-law with joy.

The believers gave her tributes again!

As the lucky fairy, receiving tributes is a common thing for her.

But when she was in the Shen Mansion before, she didn't dare to use them every time she received them, for fear that others would find out and catch her and use them to make money.

So sometimes, even if she was not full, Xiao Nuobao could only lie secretly in the quilt, drooling at the thought of the tributes.

But now it's different.

Xiao Nuobao has a new home, and her family will only love and protect her, and will not harm her.

She could naturally do whatever she wanted.

The silver ingots were so heavy that they hurt Xiao Nuobao's little hands. She lay on Li Qiqiao's shoulder, grimacing, and could hardly hold them.

So while Li Qiqiao was not paying attention, Xiao Nuobao raised her arms, secretly stretched back, and threw the two large silver ingots into the firewood basket beside the stove.

After a while, Sun Chunxue came in to get firewood to boil water.

She touched it casually and felt something cool, and she thought it was strange.

When she pulled away the firewood and took a look, she saw two white, shining silver ingots hidden in the basket. Sun Chunxue was so scared that she fell to the ground and almost thought she was dazzled.

"What is this... Mother, eldest brother... Why is there a silver ingot in our firewood basket!" Sun Chunxue pointed at the bottom of the firewood, her lips trembling.

Feng was also shocked when she saw it!

She quickly snatched the silver and took a bite, shouting: "The silver is real! Who of you picked up this firewood?"

"The fourth and fifth brothers went up the mountain yesterday to pick it up." Li Qiqiao said with eyes wide open.

Feng Jing and Feng Miao didn't know what was going on. The two children were stunned at the door when they heard the sound, as if they were frozen, and they couldn't recover for a long time.

"Maybe the silver ingot was stuck in the firewood stick a long time ago, and the two children didn't notice it and picked it up together." Jiang Fenghu ran in from outside and said.

Feng tightly grasped the silver ingot, her heart pounding.

The family was really surprised. First there was the wild boar and then there was the silver ingot. This meant they were going to get rich.

One silver ingot was worth twenty taels of silver, and two of them would be forty taels. With these forty taels, the family would no longer have to worry about running out of money!

At this time, Jiang Fenghu was scratching his fingers, very excited: "Our family's grain this year only sold for three taels of silver, these two silver ingots are equivalent to seven or eight years of farming."

Jiang Fengnian kicked him with a smile.

"I think you went to school for half a year in vain, not to mention your fingers, even if you use your toes, it's useless. This is not only equivalent to seven or eight years, but obviously more than ten years!"

When everyone heard this, they burst out laughing.

Feng laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes. She quickly put away the silver ingots and hid them at the bottom of the box.

Now that she had some spare money, the first thing Feng thought of was her daughter.

Xiao Nuobao looked almost one and a half years old, but he didn't even have any decent clothes. He could only wrap himself in a small quilt, which made it difficult for him to walk.

So Feng wiped her eyes, left the house and said with a smile: "After the pigs are slaughtered and dinner is over, mother will go to the city to sell the remaining pork first, and then buy a few feet of cloth to make some clothes for your sister."
