The woods were filled with people gathering firewood and cutting grass, all working in the cold wind.
Therefore, no one spoiled them. Everyone started to criticize those lazy guys.
When the lazy guys saw that they had angered everyone, they no longer dared to curse and all worked honestly.
Next to her, Yun Yiyi watched this scene, covering her mouth and laughing secretly.
Yun the Butcher and Yun the Big Brother were responsible for cutting the grass, while Yun the Second Brother was responsible for bundling the grass.
Yun Yiyi and Third Brother Yun were in charge of collecting firewood. There would be some fallen branches in the woods that could be picked up.
Even dead trees in the woods can be picked up and taken home.
Yun Yiyi and Third Brother Yun were both very happy with this job. In a short while, they had harvested a large pile of branches.
"Third brother, just collect firewood nearby. And keep an eye on the branches we pick up so that no one else can steal them."
"I'll go a little further up the mountain. There are too many people in the woods. If I stay here, it won't be long before there's no firewood left to collect."
"Okay, Yiyi, don't run too far. It's not safe."
"Don't worry, Third Brother. I'll just drag it back as soon as I gather enough firewood."
After Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she walked deeper into the woods.
She walked for more than ten minutes, then stopped and looked around. Fortunately, there was no one there. So, she turned and entered the space.
Recently, she has been traveling every day, and she always uses convenient excuses to enter the space.
The first thing she did after entering the space was to feed the two half-grown wild boars with corn kernels and water.
Then, she swiftly pulled out a large bundle of vegetables and put them into the pigpen.
These two wild boars were living well in the space, able to eat and sleep well. Yun Yiyi estimated that each of them must weigh nearly 200 kilograms.
After feeding the wild boar, Yun Yiyi went to check the watermelons. She picked all the ripe large watermelons and put them in the warehouse.
She washed her hands, looked through the space, and seeing that there was no one outside, she quickly left the space.
She looked at the dead trees in the woods. As long as they were not too thick, she would just use all her strength to kick a tree and break it.
In a short while, she kicked down more than twenty trees.
She looked around and found some vines not far away. She pulled out a long vine, tied five trees together, and walked back.
"Third brother, I'm back. But I haven't finished transporting the goods yet. I have to go back for a few more trips."
"Then go ahead, Yiyi, I'll wait for you here."
Yun Yiyi made five trips back and forth before she finally transported all the firewood she had collected to Brother Yun San.
"Third brother, I'll keep an eye on it. Go ask Dad when we can go home. I'm hungry too."
"Okay, I'll go now."
Third Brother Yun ran for more than ten minutes and found Yun the Butcher and Big Brother Yun.
"Dad, Yiyi and I have collected a lot of firewood. When are we going home? We are both hungry."
"If you think we haven't collected enough firewood, we can come back after dinner."
"Dad, I'm hungry too. How about we take the grass and firewood back first?"
Butcher Yun straightened up and said, "Okay, Third Brother, you and Yiyi go back and wait. Your eldest brother and I will bring the grass home and then come and get the firewood."
"Okay, Dad. I'll go tell Yiyi now."
After saying this, Third Brother Yun turned around and ran away.
"Boss, let's transport the grass back first."
"Okay, Dad."
Butcher Yun and Brother Yun carried baskets on their backs and each held a large bundle of grass in their hands.
Second Brother Yun was still tying up the remaining grass.
It took Yun the Butcher and Brother Yun two trips to transport all the cut grass back.
Fortunately, the place where they mowed the grass was not far from where they parked the car, so it could be transported quickly.
Next, Yun the Butcher took Brother Yun the eldest and Brother Yun the second, and hauled two more loads of firewood before they transported all the firewood picked up by Yun Yiyi and Brother Yun the third back home.
"Okay, I've added hot water to the basin. Go wash your hands and have dinner."
Zhang shouted loudly.
"I understand, mother."
Everyone washed their hands, sat down, and had lunch quietly.
"Mom, if we continue to eat like this tonight, the food will probably be cold before we finish it."
"Third brother is right. Let's wait until tonight. If all else fails, we can go inside the carriage and eat by the oil lamp."
"Wife, we'll talk about it tonight. After you finish cleaning up the dishes, come over and help me bundle the branches. Once you've bundled them, put them on top of the car first."
"Dad, I think it would be best to cover the dry firewood and grass with a layer of tarpaulin. If it snows, they will still be dry and can be used."
After hearing this, Butcher Yun immediately looked at Zhang and asked, "Wife, do you still have the oilcloth we bought?"
Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Master, we still have a lot of oilcloths. Now all our things are in the carriage, and the oilcloths we bought are also put away."
"Don't worry, I'll find it in a moment. It will definitely be enough."
"Dad, I'll take my brothers and sisters to continue cutting grass and collecting firewood."
"Okay, go ahead, but don't go too far."
"Don't worry, Dad."
Brother Yun took his younger brothers and sisters and continued to work in the woods.
Yun the butcher was busy cutting the branches into similar lengths so that they could be tied into bundles.
By the time Zhang found the oilcloth, Yun the butcher had already tied the branches he had brought back into bundles.
Yun the butcher stood in front of the carriage and Zhang handed him firewood.
It took the two men more than half an hour to place all the bundles of firewood on the roof of the carriage.
Next, two people pulled the oilcloth, covered the dry firewood, and tied it up.
"Master, should we put the hay on the roof of the car first, or inside the car first?"
"Wife, put it on the top of the car first."
"good."
So, one handed it over and the other put it down, until the hay was placed and the oilcloth was covered, and finally the two people circled around to tie the oilcloth up and secure it.
Zhang sighed, "Oh, finally done. This was such a hassle and took so much time."
"Wife, go collect the blankets in the carriage. I'll go help the children carry grass and firewood."
"Let's go. I guess the village chief will be shouting and setting off soon."
"Then I'll go."
Butcher Yun took the rope and dragged the branch the child had picked up back.
He also carried back a basket of grass cut by the children.
After telling the children to go home early, he turned around and walked quickly out of the woods.
"Wife, please spread hay in the carriage. And tie the branches yourself. You are not strong enough, and tying the branches will be too tiring."
"Got it, Boss. Oh, and the eldest sister from the Wu family came over just now."
Butcher Yun didn't even raise his head. "Sister-in-law, what's the matter with you?"
"They brought us a bowl of their homemade meat sauce. And they showed us how we store firewood and hay."
Butcher Yun laughed heartily. "Sister-in-law is so polite. If she wants to see it, she can just come directly. And she even insisted on bringing a bowl of meat sauce."
