Chapter 15 Success
After hearing what the elder sister said, Xiaoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, otherwise we would sell this thing at such a high price, and I don't know if anyone would buy it."
Father Xia, who was as worried as Xiaoxuan, also looked at his daughter and said, "Tong'er, will this really work?" He was a little unconfident.
"Dad, now that we've bought all the spices, we have to make them, or we'll lose four ounces of silver."
She understood how they felt.
"But if we make something, we can always sell some. Then we can make not only 40 taels, but even 40 taels."
After saying that, Xia Yutong's eating movements became faster. She dropped the dishes in her hands and ran into the kitchen.
Start to boil the brine.
Father Xia also thought of the pig's head, which still had a lot of hair on it, so he plucked it out.
It took them more than two hours to finish the work.
"Dad, you go to sleep. I'll stay here." Seeing her father falling asleep, Xia Yutong said worriedly.
"It's okay." Father Xia would never let his daughter stay here alone.
"Dad can't sleep either, so I'll stay with you." Looking at his daughter's thin body, Xia Feng felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Xiaotong, have you ever blamed your father in your heart?" He saw all the changes in his daughter over the past six months.
Sometimes he felt that the little girl in front of him was not his daughter, but when he saw the birthmark behind her ear, he was brought back to reality.
Xia Feng asked Xia Yutong tentatively.
Xia Yutong was confused for a moment when the original owner's father suddenly asked the question.
But soon she smiled bitterly, "Dad, do you remember when we were little, I told you, can I remember everything that happened in a day?"
Fortunately, she received all the memories of the original owner.
The original owner was also a capable person. She had a photographic memory since she was a child, but her voice was too soft and was drowned out by the group of people at home.
Being reminded by his daughter, Xia Feng remembered something.
"Xiaotong, Dad is sorry for you." Yes, he remembered that he didn't take it to heart back then and even said that his daughter was making trouble. How could such a little girl remember so many things.
"Dad." Xia Yutong held her father's hand. "It's all in the past. Our family will definitely live a better life in the future, and Mom's illness will gradually get better."
The original owner's injustice was actually very small, he just wanted his family to be safe and healthy.
Just because the original owner couldn't do it doesn't mean she can't do it.
"Oh." Father Xia had long lost hope regarding Mother Xia's affairs, and he knew even more that if his wife was sober, she would definitely not be with him.
Whether it was out of selfishness or other reasons, more than half of his heart did not want his wife to get better.
She is very good like this, and he is willing to pamper her and love her.
Xia Yutong didn't know what was going on in Father Xia's mind, but she could hear something from his words.
"Dad, have you ever hired a doctor for Mom before?"
The big pot in the kitchen was boiling brine, and the two people who had nothing to do talked about some things in the past.
"I have invited her before, of course I have." He even spent all the money he had at the time, and finally had no choice but to bring the person back, and then they got married and settled down.
Xia Yutong listened very seriously as her father talked about how he and her mother met.
Xia Feng and Song Wanru are also destined to be together, otherwise they would not have reached this point.
He knew better in his heart what she meant when she said "leave".
He was seriously injured when he saw her that year, and even after being rescued, he became stupid.
I was even dumber then than I am now, but after so many years, I have finally gotten better.
Life at home was a bit hard, but with all the injuries she had back then, I'm afraid her life was not any easier than it is now.
After hearing what her father said, Xia Yutong looked at her adoptive father very seriously, "Dad, do you want to help Mom cure her illness?" She was subconsciously asking, do you want her to remember the past?
Father Xia was stunned.
But he quickly came to his senses, "To say I miss her, it's not that much, but seeing her like this, Dad feels bad, and I miss her so much that I want to come."
Very contradictory.
Xia Yutong understood.
"Dad, let's just let nature take its course." She understood his feelings, but she still felt uncomfortable. Who doesn't want to stay awake?
"Well, let it be."
That night, Xia Yutong and her father did not return to their room until the rooster crowed.
Xia Yutong also prepared breakfast for Xiaoxuan. Xiaoxuan had to go to school soon, so he had to eat breakfast.
Mother Xia has to make Father Xia work hard. She can't stand it and feels sleepy.
Early the next morning, the fragrance wafted from the Xia family courtyard for ten miles.
The neighbors around were awakened by the fragrance.
Every family looked around with their noses raised.
Those who lived close to the Xia family opened their doors early and came to the Xia family's door.
Everyone felt so sad when they smelled that smell.
The aroma of meat is very obvious in the fragrance, and anyone who smells it will drool.
"What's this place doing? Why does it smell so good?"
Several families came out and ran into each other.
"Yes, I knew it. It was there last night when I got up at night, but it wasn't as fragrant as it is now." An old lady with a cloth wrapped on her head stepped forward and said.
Her house was just opposite the Xia family's, and the fragrance made her drool.
"How about we knock on the door and ask?" asked some people who wanted to take advantage.
The people living here are not very rich, but they can afford to eat meat, so they really don't take advantage of it.
"Forget it." The lady from the family opposite the Xia family immediately shook her head and said, "I, Aunt Mao, have never done such a shameless thing in my life." After saying that, she took a few steps away from the person who had spoken earlier.
We are all people with a sense of dignity, and when we hear this, we immediately feel uncomfortable.
"Just kidding, just kidding."
After a while, those people dispersed.
With the arrival of winter, wisps of mist are wrapped around the surrounding houses, making them look hazy from a distance.
There are some green vegetables planted in the not-so-big yard. Maybe because of the spiritual spring, every vegetable looks full of vigor even in the middle of winter.
The noise outside finally woke up the sleeping Xia Yutong.
As soon as she woke up, she smelled the familiar aroma of braised food. "Looks like it worked," Xia Yutong was pleasantly surprised. She could do it, but it was different from modern times. She thought her success rate was only about 50-50.
In order not to put pressure on her family, she kept silent.
Now, we can finally take this family one step further.
After hurriedly putting on her clothes, Xia Yutong opened the door and walked out.
Calculating the time, she didn't sleep for very long, just an hour or two.
It can be said that Mr. Xia didn't get much sleep. As soon as he closed his eyes to rest, his little daughter beside him started crying and making a noise.
I'm hungry and looking for milk to drink.
Mother Xia followed the child's movements. As soon as the child woke up, she woke up too, lifted up her clothes and started feeding the child.
Father Xia was afraid that she was hungry, so he had to get up and bring her breakfast.
He was so busy that he had no time to rest.
