However, since there was no one around, it was convenient for her to move the goods. After putting everything away, she went into her spatial dimension.
If nothing unexpected happens, Yu's mother should bring her second sister-in-law and the others over to help this afternoon. The second sister-in-law and the others should also be able to guess that she will be back with some goods today, so there should be more than two free laborers today. They can make more things, and whoever wants them can choose them. Anyway, it's not like they're not charging them.
With this excuse, Liu Yun got to work immediately, because she needed to prepare things for both families and make preserved vegetables; she couldn't do without them.
She rolled up her sleeves, cast the fishing net, and then headed towards the rabbit with the cage in hand. She made sure to get the things that Sister-in-law Yu Er and Sister-in-law Yu San wanted first. She had also prepared quite a lot for herself, but she still needed to prepare more. In case the two of them saw that she had too much stuff and wanted more, then her preserved vegetables for next year would be ruined. She didn't believe that Sister-in-law Yu Er and Sister-in-law Yu San wouldn't ask her for the rest when they saw it tomorrow.
Not only did she prepare meat, but she also made sure to have dried vegetables, especially dried bracken fern. She loves all bracken ferns and soaks them in jars twice a year. There's still more than half a jar left! It should last until next spring without any problem.
Radishes and cabbages should also be prepared, along with scallions, garlic sprouts, ginger, and cilantro. These should be picked directly in a basket, one basket of each, piled high.
She also needed to pack a lot of sunflower seeds and peanuts. Peanuts are a real hassle to harvest after planting, so she planted only a small amount, just enough for six pounds. Sunflowers were much easier to handle; she just packed the flowers. She couldn't bear to waste the shelled sunflower seeds, but the sunflower flowers were easy to harvest, so she packed two sacks full. She could easily shell over twenty pounds of them. She also packed two sacks full of chestnuts.
Longan, red dates, dried lychees, and dried fruit were each packed into a basket and then into burlap sacks.
Then there were the fish. She was too lazy to count them. She put the big ones in a basin, the small ones in a bucket, and the fry in the lake.
There will be two or three baskets of chicken eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs as well; they can take them and distribute them however they like.
Once everything was mostly set up, the space was filled to the brim with stuff, filling the kitchen, living room, and main room.
After preparing everything, I ate two apples, found some rapeseed and peanuts in my storage space, and went out.
The space is running low on rapeseed oil and peanut oil. Ten catties of oil lasted a year, which is already quite good. The main reason is that there is no shortage of meat at home. Fatty meats such as chicken, duck, goose and rabbit can be rendered into oil. Otherwise, if she relied on rapeseed oil, she would be exhausted from harvesting rapeseed.
Not long after Liu Yun left, Yu's mother returned with her entire family. This was no exaggeration; after all, when they arrived today, their family made up half of the people on the bus.
Seeing the locked gate, Yu's mother thought Liu Yun hadn't returned yet, but when she pushed open the gate, she heard the chirping of chickens, ducks, and geese coming from inside the house.
Opening the door to the main room revealed a crowded room with eggs piled on the table. The living room door was also open, revealing a living room filled with sacks. From time to time, the sound of water being poured could be heard from the kitchen, indicating that fish had been released.
"Second son, go and lock the courtyard gate. Xiaoshan, take your younger brother and sister to play in this bedroom for a while. Grandma will tidy up the living room first. Second son's wife, third son's wife, stop looking around and tidy up the living room first. It's the middle of winter, don't let the children get cold." After giving the instructions, Mother Yu walked towards the living room, having to avoid the cage in the main room.
"I know, I know."
Father Yu also led his son and grandson into the kitchen, some boiling water, others sharpening knives, after all, there was so much stuff!
The three of them moved the things from the living room to Yu's mother's bedroom first, after all, what if the child caught a cold if they didn't light a fire in the middle of winter?
After tidying up the living room, Yu's mother not only lit the coal stove but also a brazier. Water was boiling in the kitchen, so lighting a brazier was quite easy.
"Shanshan, come and bring your younger siblings over here to warm up by the fire. There are dried fruits on the table, and after you play for a while, take these melon seeds and some chestnuts. Tuantuan, Yuanyuan, and Beibei, help your older sister with the chores. Tomorrow, Grandma will roast chestnuts for you, and also make chestnut stewed chicken. Dangdang and An'an, you should help out too, okay?"
"Okay, then Beibei wants a big chicken leg."
"I want a big chicken leg too."
"I want two chicken wings."
"Yes, I want to eat."
"Okay, you'll get everything, but you have to listen to your sister and help out, otherwise you won't get anything." After giving the items to Yu Shan and explaining the situation, Yu's mother hurriedly went to the kitchen to help, as she needed to first divide out the items that her second and third children wanted.
"Chen Xi, Gao Lan, you two go first. Each of you pick ten rabbits, ten chickens, and eight fish."
Seeing so many things, both of them wanted more, since their families weren't short of money, and such opportunities were rare.
"Mom, look at all this. My sister-in-law can't eat that much. Can we buy more?"
"Yes! Yes! Mom, don't worry, we will never take advantage of our younger siblings. We will give them whatever amount is due."
"Alright, you guys pick out the ones you want first. You can talk about the rest when Liu Yun comes back. Hurry up and get them out so you can go help. There's so much stuff! Let's kill this first. Anyway, we can't finish processing everything in a short time."
"Okay, got it." With that, the two quickly got to work. Although they liked to take advantage of others, it was undeniable that they were both excellent workers, far superior to Liu Yun in this regard.
The items were all of good quality, and they were sold by weight, so the two of them didn't pick and choose quickly.
The father, son, grandfather, and grandson had already killed more than ten mermaids.
"Old Yu, put the fish scales away separately. We'll use them to make fish jelly tomorrow. After killing this batch, we'll deal with these small fish and rabbits first. Chen Xi, Gao Lan, come and catch the ducks and geese. We need to deal with them before it gets dark, otherwise the fine down will be hard to handle at night."
While everyone at home was busy, Liu Yun was having a leisurely time. There were several markets today, so there weren't many people pressing oil and she didn't need to queue. She could just press the oil directly. At first, she thought the oil smelled wonderful, but after a while, she felt it was too sweet. It took more than two hours for more than 20 jin of oil to be ready.
He secretly threw the oil residue and oil into his spatial storage when no one was around, then took the three pounds of oil he had prepared beforehand and went home.
