Chapter 171 170: Sleeping Beauty, wake up
The old man looked at the busy people and sighed, "It would be great if Huaixing could do things seriously like you guys!"
Seeing that he was frowning, Yang Chunyan thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa, they have been deceived by the scammers. If you want them to escape, you have to report to the police station!"
"Police station?" The old man was stunned for a moment, "Let me think about it."
At this time, Zhao Huifang and her two sisters-in-law also came out of the room and were also shocked to see the wild boar in the yard.
Father Zhou said to Zhao Huifang, "Huifang, go boil some water, prepare it, and send it to Ning'an tomorrow morning."
"Hey!" Zhao Huifang hurried towards the kitchen.
Zhou Huaian took Zhou Yiding to get water to wash it.
Yang Chunyan, Zhang Xiuxiang and Li Qiuyue untied the hares and pheasants tied to the backpack and put them aside.
Li Qiuyue asked excitedly: "Chunyan, did you kill the black goat, wild boar, and all these?"
Yang Chunyan didn't know how to divide the money from the sale of the wild animals. After thinking for a while, she said, "We didn't have that ability. The wild animals were found by Yiding's dog, and they chased after them and killed them."
"Oh!" Li Qiuyue sniffed, "I smell the scent of Magnolia officinalis flowers. Have you found Magnolia officinalis?"
Yang Chunyan: "I found it. I filled two baskets. I also found some Polygonatum... Phoenix eggs, and some Ganoderma lucidum."
"Great!" Li Qiuyue excitedly lifted the sack down with Zhang Xiuxiang and picked up a Magnolia officinalis flower. "How many Magnolia officinalis trees are there on the mountain?"
"There are more than a dozen trees, but none of them are as big as the ones on the back hill. It was too late when we found them. I cut the bark of two Magnolia officinalis trees, and there are still some flower buds that I haven't picked yet. You and Yiding can go up the hill to pick them tomorrow. We'll go back up the hill after we sell our things in the city."
"Okay." Li Qiuyue and Zhang Xiuxiang picked up a phoenix egg, rubbed it clean and put it in their mouths. "It's delicious. I haven't eaten it for a long time."
Yang Chunyan smiled and said, "There are too many things to take with us, so we will leave the tree tongue ganoderma and leaves on the mountain and bring them back next time we go up."
"We found some today..." Zhang Xiuxiang smiled and talked about the things they found today, "Chunyan, let's go dry the herbs, you go wash up, change clothes, eat something and go to bed early."
"It's okay. I'll help you spread it out and dry it on the steps first."
Li Qiuyue picked up a piece of Chonglou and said, "What is this? It's so big."
"Chonglou, it is better for treating poisonous snake bites."
The three of them took the Chonglou out of the basket, and poured out the olives and Huangjing from the sack, spreading them out to dry. In the yard, Zhou's father and Zhou Huairong had already started slaughtering mountain pigs and wild boars.
Li Qiuyue took out the money they were supposed to share today and gave it to her, then handed her a list, "Chunyan, here's the list written by Doctor Xiao Wang."
"Yes!" Yang Chunyan took it and put it in her pocket, "Have you prepared the things to send to the guesthouse?"
Li Qiuyue smiled and said, "It's ready. Huang, the purchasing manager, also asked us to pick some more big figs to send over."
Yang Chunyan: "I won't have time to pick them tomorrow, so I can only go to the mountains to see if there are any left."
After Zhou's mother cooked egg soup and heated up the leftovers for the three of them to eat, Zhou Yiding took the dog home.
Yang Chunyan hung the wild boar gall on a bamboo pole under the eaves, went into the house to get the toothbrush holder, and prepared to wash up.
Zhou Huaian said to Zhou Huaishan: "Third brother, there are a lot of things for tomorrow, let's go into the city together."
"Yes." Zhou Huaishan responded readily.
Zhou Huairong said to Zhou Huaian, "Youngest, you guys go to sleep first, we'll take care of this stuff."
"Hmm!" Zhou Huaian thought for a moment, looked at his three brothers and said, "Brother, we won't share the money from selling wild animals."
Zhou Huairong smiled and nodded, "Of course, of course."
Yang Chunyan and Zhou Huaian returned to the room. "Huaian, how do you divide the money from selling herbs? Have you and Yiding agreed?"
"Yiding said he would only share the money from selling wild animal honey with me, and he would not mix in the money from selling herbs." Zhou Huaian thought for a moment, "Yan'er, I plan to give him all the money from selling wild animals, do you think it's okay?"
"Okay!" Yang Chunyan agreed, "You go to sleep first, I'll wipe it and then go to sleep."
"Oh!" Zhou Huaian lay down with sore body, "I have to get up early to go to Ning'an tomorrow, so I'll just wipe it off casually."
"Got it, go to sleep first!"
Yang Chunyan carried the water to the bedside, and before she finished washing, she heard Zhou Huaian snoring.
Outside, Zhou Huairong and his two brothers packed up the wild boar and goat, placed them in a wooden basin filled with water, and then went back to the house to sleep, yawning.
Yang Chunyan felt that she had just laid down when she heard Zhou's mother calling her to get up. She patted Zhou Huaian and said, "Huaian, mom is calling us, hurry up and get up."
"You're just dreaming as we just fell asleep!" Zhou Huaian turned over in his arms, hugging the quilt, and continued to sleep soundly.
Yang Chunyan also felt very sleepy, so she sat up, rubbed her face, threw back the quilt and got out of bed.
After lighting the oil lamp and putting on his clothes and combing his hair, Zhou Huaian also sat up with the quilt in his arms, "Alas, I sleep later than a dog and get up earlier than a chicken every day. Making money is so damn hard!"
Yang Chunyan smiled and said, "Didn't you say that getting a big unity card is worth it no matter how tired you are?"
Zhou Huaian hugged the quilt and squinted at her, "Wife, kiss me, let me wake up!"
Yang Chunyan looked at him for a moment, then came forward and kissed him lightly, "Sleeping Beauty, wake up!"
Zhou Huaian, who was ready to be pinched, touched the kissed face and rolled over happily hugging the quilt, "Get up, go sell it for money."
In the courtyard, two square bamboo baskets were hung on the back seat of the bicycle, which contained the eels that were to be sent to Ning'an this time... mountain radishes, hens, and roosters.
The sacks on the chicken bus were filled with dried herbs, and there were two bamboo baskets, one for the herbs and the other for wild boar meat, black goat meat, a wild rabbit and two pheasants. The pig heads and offal were left at home.
Zhou's mother came out of the room and said to Zhou Huaian, "Youngest, wild boar's stomach is a good thing. Take it to the guesthouse and see if you can sell it for a good price. I have braised the pig's liver and pig's brain. Can you send some to Yiding's family later?"
"No need. My younger sister is going to school. Yiding will also go up the mountain soon. When he comes, you can give it to him and bring it up the mountain."
"Your sister-in-law said that you found Houpu, and Yiding went with you this time. Have you decided how to divide it?"
Zhou Huaian repeated Zhou Yiding's words, "I have talked to Chunyan. After we sell the wild animals, I will give him an extra 10% of the money." After he said that, he went to help Zhou Huaishan pack the eels.
Zhou Huaishan pointed at the eels in the bucket and said, "My second brother said that two more people came to collect eels yesterday. He went to several teams and only collected 60 to 70 kilograms of eels. This is only enough to send to a few guesthouses."
"I'll tell Brother Wang when we get to Ning'an, and I'll send it to his family when I have it."
"Purchasing Manager Huang asked us to bring a few kilograms of good mushrooms yesterday. I saw that my eldest and second sisters-in-law had picked up morels, so I asked my mother to pack them all up."
"Okay, we found some Polygonatum odoratum in the mountains. It has many benefits when stewed. When we get to Ning An, we will bring a few kilograms to him."
Zhou's mother and Yang Chunyan went to the kitchen, and she took out a thick stack of things wrapped in a handkerchief from her pocket and stuffed it into Yang Chunyan's hand, "Don't say anything, take it and put it away."
Yang Chunyan was stunned for a moment before she realized that it was the money from selling the steel bar indicators. She nodded and took it back to the room.
After putting the money away, she went to the main room and then to the backyard, and took a few strings of rejuvenating grass that had been dried last night on the bamboo rack.
After they finished their meal, Zhou's mother handed a bamboo basket to Yang Chunyan, "There are morels in it. I heard from your grandfather that your third father was discharged from the hospital today. Go and see them when you come back. If they haven't left, come back with them."
"I understand!" Yang Chunyan took the basket, put the backpack on her back, and followed the Zhou Huaian brothers out the door with a flashlight.
