"We'll see when the time comes. If we can trick them, we'll do it. If we can't, it's more important for us to save our lives!"
Chi Xingyue naturally had no objection. She had many prescriptions and didn't need this one.
However, Yu Tingzhang's attitude will determine their future interactions with each other.
If someone really wants to get something for free, then this is a one-time deal. If he dares to try to get something from you again, I'll find a way to chop him off.
If you are a person with a conscience, even if you pay a little less for your hard work, we can still cooperate in the future and expand the market together.
Chi Xingyue placed the flower trough on the folding flower stand and raised her hand to tuck her long hair.
I haven't washed my hair in a few days, so it's a little greasy. What can I do? Just bear with it, it's almost over anyway.
After finishing, I opened the door, went to the small kitchen to have some breakfast, and then took a stroll in the village.
Yesterday's results were pretty good. At least when we met today, everyone just smiled and said hello, and no one asked questions about mushroom cultivation.
With the help of each other, the villagers also built a rough shed.
For doors and windows, use straw mats to cover them first. Replace them after the wooden planks are ready.
Chi Xingyue went to Song Lizheng's house and sat for a while. She told him that she would follow him to the provincial capital, but was met with disapproving looks.
"It's so cold, why are you going with me? It's so painful."
Chi Xingyue smiled and didn't respond.
Instead, he reminded Song Lizheng: "Pay attention to weather changes over the next two days and beware of sudden drops in temperature. If possible, heat your kang at night. Even a slight increase in temperature makes a difference."
The villagers are different from the Ling family. They have to use every supply carefully.
When the weather wasn't particularly cold, like now, they wouldn't even heat the kang. Only the delicate Ling family, relying on the abundance of firewood at home, would light it early.
He also talked about some possible problems that might arise during the planting process. In short, he said, "Don't worry. If you have any questions, wait until I come back and talk to you."
When we left near noon, we happened to run into Chang Wan and his friends who were out for a stroll.
They went to the mountains to hunt some prey, and planned to keep some of them as food expenses for the Ling family.
As for the other part, they wanted to ask Aunt Taohua to cook it for them so they could take it with them on the road.
How could the Ling family take the other party's prey? They smiled and declined: "We have some at home, take them all. Come over and play when you have time."
Chang Wan nodded, quite touched. In the afternoon, he sent people to the county to purchase supplies, which he quietly placed in his room without telling the Ling family.
Ling Jiheng didn't care and asked someone to tidy up the carriage.
The carriage was filled with thick quilts and a small stove in the corner. A secret compartment was filled with sunflower seeds, peanuts, cakes, and a change of clothes for two people.
In addition, there is a small iron pot, a ceramic pot, several porcelain bowls, and chopsticks, spoons, chopping boards and other tools.
A small bag of rice and noodles, two or three cabbages, a few pieces of bacon, and some fungus, mushrooms, and coal.
It's almost like moving house.
A firewood stick was hidden under the car, and a chopping knife was hidden on the side. After experiencing exile, the Ling family was extremely cautious about traveling.
Shu Muyun had been altering Chi Xingyue's clothes since daybreak. Feeling it would be inconvenient for the little girl to go out, he altered Ling Jiheng's cotton-padded jacket to a smaller size and gave it to her to wear.
When Chi Xingyue was trying on clothes, she complained, "I don't know what's so good about Heng'er that it's worth you accompanying him all the way here."
I don’t know if I was overthinking it, but Chi Xingyue actually heard a hint of jealousy.
Come on, come on, normally, shouldn't the mother-in-law be jealous of her son? She, the daughter-in-law, was a little flattered.
She immediately took Shu Muyun's arm and promised, "Mom, my husband and I will be back in a few days. Last time we went to the capital, we left in a hurry without even stopping. How about I bring you some delicious food this time?"
Shu Muyun couldn't help laughing, raised his hand and poked Chi Xingyue's forehead: "Just take care of yourself, your father and I have food and drink at home, you don't have to worry about it."
Chi Xingyue said "hmm", but did not give up the idea of bringing a gift.
Shu Muyun suggested, "If you have any leather, please bring some for me. Your grandmother is old, and I want to make her a coat."
Chi Xingyue agreed: "Okay!"
Shu Muyun looked Chi Xingyue up and down and felt that the waist could be loosened a little, so that his daughter-in-law's breasts would not be visible.
"Luckily you don't have pierced ears, otherwise, your identity would be exposed to others at a glance. Try not to get into conflicts when you're out and about. If someone is really shameless, we can come back and get help. Don't be impulsive."
"I know, mother!"
Chi Xingyue came out of the east room and boasted to Ling Jiheng: "Will you be heartbroken when you see how high my status is?"
Ling Jiheng smiled and shook his head: "I can only be happy."
Chi Xingyue hummed and poured some spiritual spring water on the vegetables in the flowerbed, then sat in front of Ling Jiheng's desk and read the sketchbook.
It got dark quickly. After Aunt Taohua and Baozhu finished making dinner, they prepared food for the two of them.
Steamed buns, dumplings, braised pork, boiled eggs, ginseng chicken soup, black fungus and yam, Kung Pao chicken...
The weather is cool now, so it’s no problem to keep it for three to five days.
Chi Xingyue went to the backyard to take a look at the sheep and found that the pregnant ewe had a very big belly and she didn't know when she would give birth.
The three fawns were well-fed by Ling Yi and his friends. The two cubs also stayed here all day long and never stayed in Qingfeng Courtyard for long.
Chi Xingyue thought this was a good idea, as it would save her the trouble of having to ask for venison.
Because he had to get up early to travel, Chi Xingyue went to bed early that night. Lying on the warm kang, he felt a sense of anticipation, but the north wind outside made him uneasy.
Indeed, the weather had changed in the evening. Thick dark clouds blocked out the sunlight, and the air in Qingshan Village seemed to be freezing cold.
But the trip was already set, so I couldn't go back on my word. Besides, if it really snowed, it would definitely be easier if I were there.
Chi Xingyue closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep. She felt dazed for only a moment before she was woken up by Ling Jiheng.
Yawning, I didn't want to get up at all. It was dark outside. I probed my consciousness into the space and found that it was only 3:30.
Emma, why do you have to come so early?
Chi Xingyue put on her cotton-padded jacket, slipped on her shoes, and went to her dressing table to tie her hair up. She was wearing a man bun today, which was quite unusual.
Ling Jiheng came over to help, and in a few minutes, a handsome young boy emerged.
Chi Xingyue used makeup to make her skin look dark and yellow, and also used an eyebrow pencil to modify her eyebrows, making her look a little sharp.
A moment later, the two opened the door. Erzhu looked at the young boy beside his master and opened his mouth in surprise.
"Hey, this, this, is this Madam?" What a miracle!
If I hadn't known the other person's identity in advance, I would definitely not have suspected that the boy was a girl!
Chi Xingyue smiled and nodded, then went to the small kitchen to eat. This morning, they had dumplings with pork and cabbage filling.
Chi Xingyue ate a full bowl before she and Ling Jiheng prepared to leave.
