Brother Yun also said, "That's right, Third Brother. Although we all like eating dumplings, making them is such a waste of time."
"If Mom wants to make enough dumplings for our family, she'll probably have to work all afternoon."
Second Brother Yun waved his hand, "Big Brother, Third Brother, you two should eat it while it's hot. But don't worry, Zirui will be at home helping to roll out the dumpling wrappers this afternoon."
"And I can also make dumplings, so I won't make you too tired."
"That's good."
Third Brother Yun said a little exaggeratedly, "Oh, my mother's dumplings are so delicious. I think I can eat three big bowls."
"Third brother, eat this bowl first. Mom is still making dumplings. Don't worry, there will be enough dumplings to eat tonight."
Third Brother Yun nodded happily, "That's great."
Brother Yun also looked happy.
I have to praise that dumplings are very powerful.
After more than ten minutes, Brother Yun Da and Brother Yun San finished all the dumplings in their bowls.
"Second brother, you take the bowl back. Third brother and I will go up the mountain to carry the things."
"Okay, big brother."
So, Big Brother Yun and Third Brother Yun carried the empty baskets and went straight up the mountain.
Second Brother Yun also carried a basket and walked home.
This place is quite secluded and there are no people around. So, there is no need to worry about the basket being stolen when it is placed here.
Second Brother Yun, carrying a basket on his back, strode home.
Fortunately, when I chose the place, I chose one not far from home.
Therefore, more than ten minutes later, Brother Yun returned home.
When Zhang saw Second Brother Yun coming back, she grabbed the basket from his back and asked, "Second Brother, have the eldest and third brothers finished their dumplings?"
"Mom, they've all finished eating. But the things on the mountain haven't been transported away yet, so they've gone back up the mountain."
"Mom, please put the basket directly into the mule cart. I still have to go back to the mountain to carry the basket."
"Okay, second brother, then go ahead."
Second Brother Yun returned to the mountain empty-handed, picked up the basket he had just hidden and walked home.
When Second Brother Yun carried the basket home again, Zhang was so happy that she didn't know what to say.
Today's gains were truly enormous. She pressed down the corners of her mouth to prevent herself from laughing unconsciously.
After a while, Zhang and Yun Erge washed their hands and continued to make dumplings.
"Mom, I think you and Dad will have to work overtime tonight to sort out the sweet potatoes, persimmons, and hawthorns we harvested in the mountains today."
Zhang smiled before she spoke. "Okay, let's wait until you guys go to bed tonight. Then, your father and I will light the oil lamp and slowly sort it out in the carriage."
"Mom, you and Dad should clean up the sweet potatoes first. Originally, when we first started, we put the damaged sweet potatoes and the intact ones into two baskets."
"But in the end, all three baskets were full. We just left them there without separating them."
"It's not a big deal, second brother. However, the damaged sweet potatoes do need to be separated in advance. Because they rot easily."
"If they're not separated, even the good sweet potatoes will rot. That would be a shame."
"Mom, now that we have so many sweet potatoes, can we have sweet potato porridge more often?"
Zhang looked at Second Brother Yun's face full of anticipation and couldn't help but smile. After all, he was still a child, and what he cared about most was eating.
"Don't worry, if you guys want to drink sweet potato porridge, we can drink it every day."
Second Brother Yun was delighted. "Mom, my eldest brother and I all like to drink sweet potato porridge."
Hearing this, Xie Zirui also interjected, "Aunt, I like sweet potato porridge too. It's sweet and delicious."
"Okay, then we'll drink it every day from now on. I'm just worried you won't want to drink it after a few days."
"No, mother."
"No, auntie."
Zhang looked at the two children who looked as if they disagreed with her and couldn't help but laugh. Children's happiness is so simple.
Zhang brought her two children and made dumplings while chatting. Half an hour later, the three of them had made more than a hundred dumplings.
After a while, Yun the Butcher came back.
"Boss, you're back. Put down the basket and take a rest."
"Wife, don't worry about me. You guys make dumplings first. I'll drink some water and go back up the mountain. The kids are still waiting for me up there."
"Okay, boss, I have some noodles on hand, go get some water for yourself."
"good."
Butcher Yun stuffed the basket into the carriage, washed his hands, and poured himself two bowls of water.
Once he finishes drinking the water, put the bowl aside.
He came to Zhang's side and said, "Wife, I will go up the mountain again this time and bring all the things down."
"Also, you guys need to start making dumplings quickly. Next time I come back, I'll have to bring the table up the mountain."
Zhang was a little surprised. "Boss, why are you bringing a table up the mountain for no reason?"
"Hehe, wife, I'm telling you in secret, don't scream." After saying this, Yun the Butcher deliberately glanced at Zhang a few times.
Zhang nodded, "Don't worry, Boss, I won't scream."
Butcher Yun then whispered, "Yiyi encountered a wild boar in the mountains. She caught a small wild boar weighing over 100 kilograms."
The dumplings in Zhang's hand immediately fell onto the table. "Boss, is Yiyi hurt?"
"Don't worry, wife. Yiyi used a trick to catch the little wild boar. She wasn't injured. However, I guess the process was not simple."
Zhang slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, this kid is doing something big again. I'm so scared."
"She's getting bolder and bolder. When she saw a wild boar, instead of running back quickly, she actually managed to catch it. This child is just like me. She's really smart."
After she finished speaking, she found that several people were looking at her speechlessly.
She immediately said, "Oh, Yiyi is such a brave child. Just wait, I will spank her when Yiyi comes back."
Butcher Yun looked at Zhang with disapproval, "Wife, Yiyi is a good child. She means well. I think you can just nag her a few times."
"There's no need to spank her. The child is already that old, she doesn't care about her face. Besides, if it hurts, you'll feel bad too."
Zhang was silent for a while. It was true that she would feel bad if she beat the child. But if she didn't beat him, Yiyi would become more and more daring.
"Well, I'll talk to Yiyi more about it when she comes back. Tell her not to be so reckless next time. Wild boars are so ferocious. If you see one, you should run back as soon as possible."
Butcher Yun agreed, "Wife, you are right. I support you."
