"Sigh, there's much less snow on Apple Tree Hill. Does anyone know who did it?"
The next day, Lin Chaobei was dragged by Xiaoman'er to dig in the snow again. He found that there was a large depression in the snow layer on a mountain. He thought that someone had dug a pit for fun. But it turned out that only the top layer of snow was gone. After returning, he would ask everyone he met about it. Inevitably, he couldn't help but ask about it at the dinner table.
"have no idea."
Everyone shook their heads.
No one noticed Yue Jiuyue, the only one who didn't shake her head. Even if they did, no one would think much of it, since Yue Jiuyue was very afraid of the cold and rarely went out this winter. Why would she go out to dig snow in the middle of the night?
Yue Jiuyue thus escaped a calamity.
But what about tonight? Will that kid Lin Chaobei secretly gather a group to wait for her? Should she still go make snowballs tonight, and continue earning her little money?
Yue Jiuyue was somewhat saddened. She had finally found a business with no investment and huge profits, but it might be ruined after just one night. Her heart ached! She was heartbroken about all the money she had earned last night, knowing she would never be able to earn it again after tonight.
"Sigh! Making money is not easy," the old lady sighed.
"How strange! I asked everyone in my family, and they all said they didn't know. Could it be someone else from the village? But why would they come to our mountain to dig snow? Is there a shortage of snow outside? Besides, I didn't find any footprints. Can they fly? Can they use that kind of light-footed skill that leaves no trace in the snow?"
What boy doesn't dream of being a hero? You might not dare to dream of being a general on the battlefield, but you can still dream of being a hero who robs the rich to help the poor.
"Alright, stop rambling. Let's just stake out the place tonight and see what's going on!"
Lin Chaonan put on a stern face, and Lin Chaobei stopped joking around and quietly started eating.
What should Yue Jiuyue do when her heart aches even more?
They're openly discussing staking out the place at night right in front of her. Aren't they afraid she'll be heartbroken and cry?
Yue Jiuyue felt that the food in her bowl didn't taste good anymore. She finished the bowl of rice without any appetite and then said that she was full. She went back to her room listlessly.
At the table, everyone looked somewhat bewildered.
His mother/grandmother has been eating more lately, and two bowls of rice aren't enough for her, right? Why did he only eat one bowl tonight? Was the food not to his liking?
Everyone looked down at the food on the table. There was fish, meat, eggs, soup, and even cold dishes. It was all the food that their mothers/grandmothers usually liked to eat. Why couldn't they eat it today?
Everyone took a bite of each dish on the table. The taste was just right, with neither too much nor too little salt. It was exactly the same as what we usually eat.
So, what exactly happened to their mother/grandmother?
Yue Jiuyue could not give them this answer.
You can't exactly say that she's unhappy because they discovered her way of making money, and that her method is shameful and she can no longer make money after it's been discovered, right?
Then, shouldn't everyone treat her like a fool?
Lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), Yue Jiuyue vented her emotions briefly under the covers, but her inner pain was not relieved in the slightest.
She had to earn this kind of money with no risk, otherwise she would always remember it.
