Finally, the porridge ended up in the pig's mouth, and the family ate dry, hard flatbread to stave off hunger.
Dai Qiuhua cleaned up the dishes, and while washing them, she thought about how to take advantage of Xiao Li's family.
The seventh day after her death has passed, and all the eggs we took from her house have been eaten. Now she's the only girl left in her family, and as her elder, I should take better care of her.
Thinking of this, she chuckled. Who says you can't take advantage of someone if you don't live together?
The bowl on the stove suddenly fell to the ground.
"Clap clap clap..."
That voice is so beautiful, it's really relaxing to listen to.
"What's wrong?"
Yao Da came out of the room and looked at Dai Qiuhua with a blank expression. She didn't know what had happened either; the bowl had just broken by itself.
"What can you even do in a day? You can't even wash a dish properly, you're really useless."
Dai Qiuhua looked aggrieved, but dared not argue back. She squatted down to pick up the broken pieces.
These days, even scraps are valuable. You can use them to scrape skin or stick them on the wall to keep out thieves. You should keep them all.
"Ouch! Hiss..."
Dai Qiuhua didn't know how, but she cut her finger. When she looked, blood was gushing out, and the cut was quite deep.
"Quickly, get some wood ash and apply it."
Yao Xixi quickly went to the stove to get some wood ash and some strips of cloth to bandage Dai Qiuhua.
Yao Da didn't want to talk anymore; just looking at him made him angry.
Dai Qiuhua bled a lot before the wound stopped bleeding. She felt a little dizzy and went to bed.
Yao Xixi picked up a broom, preparing to sweep up the crumbs and take them out to empty.
She suddenly felt her legs go weak, and before she knew it, she was kneeling on the broken pieces of debris.
"ah……"
This shout was so earth-shattering that it even made Yao Dongsheng cry out.
"What's wrong with everyone so early in the morning? Why are you calling me 'Mom' all the time? Can't a person get any sleep?"
When he saw the terrible state of his sister, he realized what was happening and helped Yao Xixi up to sit in a chair.
"Don't move, I'll clear it out for you."
Yao Dongsheng carefully removed the bits of debris one by one, while Yao Xixi cried out in pain.
"It's all Mom's fault. She broke the bowl, and now my knee is covered in shards. It hurts so much, boohoo..."
For some reason, Yao Dongsheng thought he saw a fly on his sister's knee, and he pressed it down hard.
"ah……"
"Now... he's... definitely... dead..."
He saw blood flowing from Yao Xixi's knee and realized that he had pressed the shards into it, no wonder his sister screamed.
"I didn't mean to, I was swatting a fly..."
Yao Xixi burst into tears.
"Mom, Dongzi is bullying me, are you going to do anything about it? Waaah...it hurts so much..."
As soon as Yao Da entered the door, he heard his daughter crying, so he went into the kitchen.
"What's going on so early in the morning?"
As soon as Yao Dongsheng saw his father arrive, he quickly ran away.
He was running too fast and didn't pay attention to his footing. He tripped over something and fell towards Yao Da.
Yao Da didn't hesitate to turn him over, and before he could react, Yao Dongsheng hit him squarely, and the two of them rolled around in a heap.
"Ouch! My head..."
"Ouch! My back."
Yao Da thought about his family's bad luck a while ago, and wondered if it was coming back again.
After attending Yao Er's funeral, they had a string of bad luck, which is why they didn't go looking for trouble with Xiao Xiao.
I never expected that things would just get a little better before bad luck started again.
It took them quite a while to stand up, leaning against the wall.
"Be careful during this time, our family has been having such bad luck. I'll go and beg Master He later to see if he can help us break this curse."
There was a low house in the village where a sorceress lived, who called herself He Xiangu.
She used to hide away and dare not show her face, but now that things have opened up, she's become active again.
Yao Xixi had no choice but to pick out the crumbs herself with tears in her eyes, then carefully bandaged the wound and lay down on the bed, not daring to move.
?
Xiao Li found it amusing; Huan Ling was too mischievous, but she liked it.
The three little ones came back to boast about their achievements, making everyone in the system green with envy.
"Bang bang bang..."
Someone knocked on the door, and when Xiaoli opened it, she saw Chen Xufeng.
"Xiaoxiao, these are dumplings my mom made. Try them."
Xiao Li accepted it. Ever since they split the money last time, Chen Xufeng had been frequently bringing her food.
Xiao Li felt she had been too idle lately and needed to make some money.
She waved to Chen Xufeng, who was about to leave.
"Don't go, I have something to tell you."
Chen Xufeng entered the courtyard with a flushed face. He felt a little embarrassed to be around Xiaoli and the air felt too hot.
"What's wrong? Is the roof leaking?"
It rained recently, and his roof is leaking.
Xiao Li shook her head. "No, I recently hunted some game. Let's sell it."
Chen Xufeng's eyes lit up. He had been waiting for Xiaoli to say this for a long time. Ever since he realized how strong the girl was, he had wanted to go hunting, but he was too embarrassed to say it to a girl.
Xiao Li pointed to the back mountain, "There are many prey there. I hunted two wild goats yesterday. Go ask Brother Min later if he will buy the whole goats. I don't want to skin them."
Chen Xufeng quickly said, "I'll peel them, you don't need to interfere. Just split the profits after we sell them, leave the rest to me."
Xiao Li shook her head. "Skinning and butchering is too much trouble. Let's sell them whole. There will be plenty of prey in the future."
She already has plenty of prey in her spatial storage, so there's no need for her to go up the mountain to hunt. However, she still has to go up the mountain to pretend and sell the prey mixed with what she has in her spatial storage.
Chen Xufeng's eyes lit up even more, and he nodded vigorously, agreeing with whatever Xiaoli said.
"I'll do whatever you say."
The two secretly made money, and it came quickly. After three months, they had ten thousand yuan.
There weren't that many people with ten thousand yuan in those days; there might only be a handful in the whole town. Of course, there were also some hidden millionaires.
Xiao Li has decided to stop; this meat supply cannot last long, and they should find another way out.
"Chen Xufeng, I'm planning to contract a barren mountain. Would you like to come with me?"
Chen Xufeng nodded. He was only rich because of Xiaoli, and he completely trusted her.
"Just do it. Tell me what you want me to do and I'll do it."
Xiao Li nodded. She was too young and needed Chen Xufeng to stand up for her.
That evening, the two of them went to see the village chief.
They didn't hide their business from the village chief. Of course, the village chief only thought they were making a little money and had no idea that the two of them had earned so much.
"What? You want to contract the back mountain?"
Xiao Li took out the money she had prepared, "This is my parents' savings, and the money I've earned from doing business recently."
Xiao Li glanced at the village chief and, seeing that he wasn't surprised, knew he was fully aware of the situation.
"I want to contract the back mountain with Chen Xufeng. We can raise livestock and plant trees on the mountain. We're sure we can make money in the future."
Xiao Li handed her written proposal to the village chief. She was experienced and believed the village chief would recognize its value.
The village chief took it and looked at it for a long time before finally putting the proposal down.
