After doing physical labor for two days in a row, Yue Jiuyue felt so unwell that she couldn't get out of bed in the morning.
Even if you can't get up, you still have to. If you want to live a good life as a lazy bum in the future, you have to work hard to earn enough money before you can have the confidence to be a lazy bum who just sits around waiting to die.
Moreover, we'll be fleeing famine next year!
The original owner's last memory before death in his previous life was that the famine was finally over and they had finally arrived in the capital!
If she didn't want to flee the famine and go through countless hardships to reach the capital only to die, she would have to use her special ability to do something underhanded.
Earning more money is a must, then buying water to fill the village's long-dried-up well? Or should we fence off a hilltop and pretend to have dug a well?
There's no rush. The spring in the mountains can hold on for a while. She should take advantage of this time to earn more money.
So even if you can't get up, you have to get up, it's all for the sake of your future.
“Mother, get up! I was just about to wake you up when the clan elder came over and said that each family should send one person to the stone mill for a clan meeting in a little while.”
"Oh, right, Mother, Xiaoman's father and fourth brother went to the mountains to dig for medicinal herbs. Third brother said he needed to go to the town clinic early to help out, so he left without even eating."
As soon as Yue Jiuyue opened the door, she saw Liu Shi about to knock. Then Liu Shi launched into a series of reports, as if they were subordinates.
As for Madam Liu, she started looking worried again, which made Yue Jiuyue's eyes hurt.
Yesterday was fine, wasn't it? What happened today? Is life unbearable?
"Okay, you go do whatever you need to do, I'll go take a look."
Yue Jiuyue slowly stepped out of the house and walked step by step toward the stone mill.
Yesterday, Yue Jiuyue thought that Liu Shi looked alright, and she was about to put down her original idea of dividing the family. Unexpectedly, Liu Shi persisted for only one day before revealing her true colors, and now she remembered the matter of dividing the family again.
It's said that the family should not separate while the parents are alive. Given her current character, she would need to find a good reason to separate. She wants to separate and live her own life, not to give the original owner's son a bad reputation or affect the future of her descendants. She must find a suitable reason.
Yue Jiuyue pondered the matter of dividing the family property and soon arrived at the stone mill.
The stone mill was originally located at the east end of the village, where there was a large open space. In previous years, during the winter off-season, people would grind flour there, or gather there to chat and bask in the sun. If there was anything to announce in the village, people would usually go there because it was a spacious place.
Yue Jiuyue's home was located about 30 or 40 meters east of the stone mill. There was a well between them, but it had long since dried up. A thick stone slab had been placed over the well to prevent children from running around and accidentally falling in.
Thirty or forty people had already arrived at the stone mill, chatting quietly among themselves, discussing whether the clan meeting was about medicinal herbs, and complaining that the clan leader hadn't chosen a good time. Everyone was eager to go up the mountain to dig for herbs, and any delay would mean wasting money!
When Yue Jiuyue arrived, she didn't disturb anyone, nor did she want to discuss anything with anyone. She found a rock at the very edge, sat down, and waited quietly.
In the village, everyone lives together in one large family. People like Yue Jiuyue, who are so young, are extremely rare. So, in Linjiagou, which has about four hundred people, there are less than forty households. Yue Jiuyue exclaimed: "I'm stunned, my friend!"
