In the end, the shopkeepers sent Su Ying out with satisfied smiles. Su Ying patted her completely empty purse. It had to be said that her purchasing power was still very strong.
After the things were delivered to the designated place and she put them into the space, Su Ying went around to the livestock stall.
What surprised her was that there were more livestock today than last time. After asking an old man who was selling sheep, she learned that it was almost the New Year and everyone was selling their livestock to get some silver to keep.
So when Su Ying walked out of the livestock business, the scene was even bigger than before. She rode directly on the back of a mule, waving a small whip and calling a few uncles to help her drive the livestock out of the customs. When leaving the customs, she hid under someone else's carriage and left smoothly.
Qiao Yang looked at the sky which was getting dark and couldn't help but become anxious, worrying that something might have happened to Su Ying.
"Second Master, look, Madam Su is here."
Qiao Yang stretched his neck and saw Su Ying riding on a mule, swinging a small whip and leading a group of pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese and mules towards them.
"Oh my God, Madam Su might want to destroy the livestock kennels of the people inside the pass." Qiao Yang quickly asked people to come forward to help.
"Hurry up and tie all those chickens, ducks and geese to the car."
"Come on."
Everyone went to the car, took the tree branches that fell on the car, tied up the claws of the chickens, ducks and geese and put them on the car.
"Madam Su, please put the pig on the cart as well. Don't let it get too thin on the way."
Su Ying actually thought that what Qiao Yang said made sense, so she asked him to put a few big fat pigs on the car. Except for the cows and mules, all the others were put on the car since the car was empty anyway.
After packing up everything, they started to head back.
"Madam Su, why are there so many bloodstains on your shoes?"
Su Ying was afraid that the blood on her body would scare people, so she bought a set of ready-made clothes to change into after she got to the street. Unexpectedly, she was still discovered by Qiao Yang.
"Then Mr. Li wanted to swallow all the charcoal and had evil intentions towards Mr. Zhang, so I helped him get rid of him."
Qiao Yang didn't expect such a thing to happen. "I knew that Mr. Li's shifty eyes didn't mean he was a good guy. Is Mr. Zhang okay?"
Su Ying shook her head, "It's nothing serious."
"I'm glad you're alright. With Madam Su here this year, we can have a good winter."
Qiao Yang was almost dying of greed when he saw the truckload of pigs, ducks, cows and sheep. Although his life in Tiger Camp was better than that of most people, he couldn't eat meat to his heart's content every meal, especially in winter. There were few supplies and the weather was cold, so it was good enough to have something to eat half full. Every winter, everyone would stay at home to avoid wasting more energy and getting hungry faster.
The team returned to Tiger Camp after the second watch of the night.
Everyone was drooling at the sight of so many animals, but they all understood the rules. Su Ying had said that these animals were used to give birth to cubs, and only if they gave birth to more cubs could the people in the Tiger Camp have more meat to eat.
Qiao Yang and the others helped Su Ying send the livestock home.
A few days ago, Su Ying asked Tian Mu to expand the cattle shed, so she was not worried that it would not be able to accommodate the animals.
He Shouyi and Murong De, who were sleeping in the back room, heard the noise and hurriedly put on their clothes and walked out of the room.
The two men were holding oil lamps and were stunned when they saw Su Ying herding a group of livestock outside the door.
"My lady is back."
"I'm back. There's nothing to do here. Uncle, you all should go back to sleep."
Now that you're up, there's no reason not to help.
"This pig is quite fat." Murong De patted a pig and drove it into the pigpen with a smile.
"Madam, are you going to clean up the livestock stalls again?"
Su Ying smiled and said, "Yes, those people almost think of me as the God of Wealth."
He Shouyi laughed when he heard this, "Madam is the God of Wealth." When a family buys livestock, they buy out the entire stall.
"Madam, you have been traveling all day. You should go back and rest early. Leave the matters here to the two of us."
Murong De carried the chickens into the chicken coop. These were all egg-laying hens. He could make egg custard for the children every day from now on.
"Yes ma'am, go and take a rest, leave this to us."
"Okay." Su Ying stretched, asked Qiao Yang and the others to go back and rest, and then she returned to the yard.
"Madam is back. The water is still boiling in the kitchen. Do you want to take a shower?" Bai Shuang put on her clothes, opened the door, walked out and asked.
Su Ying smelled the pungent scent on her body and nodded, "Go ahead and take a shower. I can do it myself. You go to sleep."
Bai Shuang shook her head and went to pour water for Su Ying.
After everything was ready, Su Ying asked Bai Shuang to go back to the house to rest.
She closed the door of the bathroom, took off her clothes and sank into the warm water. The moment her body was wrapped in the hot water, all the pores on her body opened comfortably.
Su Ying let out a comfortable breath and waited until the water was almost cold before getting out of the bucket.
She was about to go back to sleep when she found that Xiao Jin had just returned.
"Why are you so late?"
Xiao Jin's body was still covered in frost and when he walked towards her, she could clearly feel the coldness from him.
"It's a bit difficult to protect the earth slope, so it's a little late."
"If it's hard, just do it tomorrow. Why rush to work in the middle of the night?"
Xiao Jin didn't explain much, just asked her to go to bed first.
Su Ying yawned. After taking a bath, the energy and blood in her body were mobilized, and she felt less sleepy.
"I'll go see if there's water in the pot. You're feeling cold all over, so take a hot bath to cool down." Su Ying said and turned to go to the kitchen.
Xiao Jin didn't stop her. It was rare to see her take the initiative to care about him.
Seeing that there was not much water left in the pot, Su Ying added some firewood and water to the stove. After covering the pot, she poured out the water in the wooden barrel so that she could use it to water the vegetables in the backyard tomorrow.
After cleaning up, the water was almost boiled, so Su Ying scooped out the hot water. When she was about to take it to the bathroom, Xiao Jin had already come behind her, took the bucket from her hand and walked out.
"Have a good time, I'm going to sleep."
"good."
Su Ying returned to the house yawning.
"Mother, you're back."
Su Ying was very surprised to hear Dabao's voice. She walked to the bed and picked up Dabao. "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
"Wake up." Dabao muttered. Su Ying and Xiao Jin were not at home at night. It was Mother Zhao who coaxed them to sleep. But Dabao had become accustomed to Su Ying's presence at night. He couldn't sleep well today because Su Ying had not come back yet. He felt a little panicked when he woke up and didn't see Su Ying. He couldn't fall asleep at all.
"It's still early, sleep a little longer." Su Ying hugged him and lay down on the bed.
As if sensing Su Ying's presence, Erbao subconsciously squeezed towards Su Ying.
Su Ying kissed them on the face before hugging them and closing her eyes.
