Chapter 15: The Young Daughter-in-law of the Yang Family
"Aunt San, do you want to go out with me today?"
Just after breakfast, Yang Daya found Lin Wanwan mysteriously.
She had already had a day off yesterday, and had accompanied her third aunt for a walk around the neighborhood. She couldn't stay idle any longer today.
Even if you want to play, you have to wait until you have earned eight work points before you can play.
Grandma told Third Aunt to rest at home first. If she could take Third Aunt to the mountain, the two of them would quickly get all the work points, and then they could help Third Aunt make clothes earlier.
What Lin Wanwan was wearing today was the same outfit that the original owner wore when she came to Yangjia Village.
The clothes Cai Guifen found had already been washed and hung outside. She had no choice because there were too few clothes.
The trouser legs and cuffs of the clothes he was wearing were a bit short, and it was obvious that they didn't fit him well.
"Can I go out with you? That would be great, I don't want to be home alone!"
Lin Wanwan was also thinking that if Yang Daya wanted to earn work points today, she would go to the mountains to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables by herself.
You must stock up on food so that you can feel at ease.
"Of course you can, but your file isn't ready yet, so you can't earn work points for now."
"Grandma has already gone to the village to urge them. Once your file is ready, Third Aunt can also earn work points every day."
Lin Wanwan knew that work points could be exchanged not only for food, but also for money and tickets.
These are all good things, Lin Wanwan certainly won’t miss them.
At first she thought that Cai Guifen wanted her to rest at home for two days before going back to work, but it turned out that there was such a hidden story.
"Since I can't count the work points now, I'll help you pick grass for the pigs later. Let's hand in the work points quickly and continue to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms in the afternoon."
"The pickled mushrooms my second sister-in-law made yesterday were so delicious. They were so delicious even before they were seasoned. I guess they will taste even better after they are seasoned."
"If we sell this, we should be able to get a lot of supplies in return."
Lin Wanwan licked her lips subconsciously, as if the delicious aroma of the pickled mushrooms had returned to her taste buds.
"Aunt San, you're so smart. If you have a lot of mushrooms, you can pickle them and sell them."
"Then we'll sell them to the workers in town. They don't have that much time to make pickles, so if they have these pickled mushrooms, they'll definitely be very popular."
Yang Daya knew that every year people from the town would go to the countryside to collect pickles.
Although city dwellers could earn money, they were also short of supplies.
When it comes to food, they are not even as good as the country people!
It’s just that their clothing is much better, and the villagers envy the workers in the city.
"So what are we waiting for? Let's get going!"
Just like that, while Cai Guifen was still directing her two daughters-in-law to do the housework, Lin Wanwan and Yang Daya had already left.
The Yang family didn't take this scene seriously. As long as Yang Daya was with Lin Wanwan, nothing would happen.
The fact that the aunt and niece get along well is because of their affection for each other, and no one will say anything about it.
"Aunt San, I'm taking you to another place to collect grass for pigs today. I brought an extra basket with me today. Once this basket is full, we'll go and complete the task."
"When the time comes, just keep collecting pig grass. I'm sure you'll be able to fill up your work points soon."
The amount of pig grass that can be collected is also limited. Yang Daya comes very early every day. Because she works quickly, she can always earn more than others.
She came earlier today, and with two of them, I believe she can earn more than just 4 work points this time.
After all, the girls in the village not only came late, but also were slow.
This time I must be the first to earn two more work points.
This way the remaining two work points will be easy to handle.
Yang Daya thought about it in her mind and quickly planned out the arrangements for today.
"I've memorized all the types of pig grass you collected yesterday. Don't worry, Third Aunt will ensure you complete your mission."
Lin Wanwan patted Yang Daya's shoulder, looking like she was asking you to watch my performance.
The two of them went around a hill and soon came to a valley.
The grass here is quite deep. If it weren't for Yang Daya leading the way, Lin Wanwan would probably not be able to find a place to stay if she came here alone.
They quickly passed through the grass and came to an area with lush water plants.
"Aunt San, do you see the weeds along the ditch? They can all be cut. You can cut them here first, and I'll go cut the pigweed up there."
Yang Daya left the two backpacks behind and climbed up the slope alone to reach the plump and tender leafy vegetables on top.
These leafy vegetables are not only loved by pigs, but also by cows and donkeys in the village.
Moreover, large-leafed vegetables take up more space than other pig feeds, and can easily fill up a whole basket.
"Aunt San, don't run around here. There won't be any wild boars coming here. Just be careful and don't run into any snakes."
Although Yang Daya said this, she still found a stick and beat the nearby grass before leaving with the pig grass on her back.
Lin Wanwan looked at the little girl's back and felt that this child was really sensible.
After looking at the full basket she had cut and the empty one, Lin Wanwan buried her head and started collecting pig grass again.
The backpack was soon filled up. She was worried that the pig grass would wilt if she cut it too early, so she didn't continue. Instead, she ran to the ditch to feel for snails inside.
3628 told her that the water here is relatively clear and the snails are also very clean. If you add some chili and garlic to stir-fry them, they will become a natural delicacy.
Listening to 3628's description in her mind, Lin Wanwan couldn't help it any longer, so she took off her shoes, rolled up her trouser legs, and started to explore.
You know what, the detection ability of 3628 is really amazing. It quickly found a bunch of screws.
However, because there was no place to put it, Lin Wanwan looked around and finally found a few clean large leaves.
Spread it on the edge of the ditch, and when you have a handful full, put it on the big leaves.
When Yang Daya came back, she saw her third aunt searching for screws in the ditch.
And on the big leaves on the shore, there was already a thick pile of them.
"Aunt San, how did you find so many screws at once?"
Yang Daya knew that there were snails here, but she had only seen them a few times.
Never knew there were so many?
"There are quite a lot of snails in this little ditch. Daya, go and deliver the pig grass quickly. I'll continue to fish for a while!"
"As long as we keep these snails in a large basin, they won't die for a while. Let's get up early tomorrow morning and fry them, and then take them to the market to exchange for supplies."
Lin Wanwan is now immersed in the big pie drawn by 3628 and is unable to extricate herself from her happiness.
After hearing what her third aunt said, Yang Daya came out of her fantasy of eating snails and imagined the scene of selling the snails and exchanging them for hairbands and candies.
"Aunt San, please be careful in the water. Try to use the stick to pat the grass and the water surface. I will be back soon."
