Kang Hong knew she was very strong, but he still stared at her with wide eyes. "Hey, what are you carrying?"
Putting the rice in the yard, Kang Yueran wiped the sweat from his head and said, "I went up the mountain to hunt a wild boar today. I thought every family was short of food. So I asked Manager Cheng to help me contact someone and exchange the wild boar for these broken rice.
I'd like to ask the village head to give some to everyone who came to help my house before, as a token of my gratitude.
In Fengtou Village, everyone gives my father a thumbs-up when they mention him. Even though I'm a woman, I have to keep my word and not tarnish his good reputation."
Wang asked, "Broken rice? Why didn't you change it to mixed noodles?"
Mixed noodles are cheaper than broken rice.
Kang Yueran explained, "It's been raining a lot lately, so noodles are inedible if they're soaked in water, but rice is a bit better.
I was lucky; this was all the rice they had left. My wild boar wasn't big, so it wasn't enough to pay the bill, but they gave it all to me to save the trouble. It was 350 kilograms, which is not much more expensive than bean flour."
Wang smiled and said, "That's quite fitting. A pound of white rice costs thirty coins now."
Kang Youzhao said, "Mother said the price was from a few days ago. Now a pound of white rice costs thirty-six wen. I think it will continue to rise."
"The price has gone up again? Oh, it's only been a few days, are you trying to kill us?" The price of rice has gone up, so the prices of mixed flour and bean flour must have gone up as well.
Kang Yueran took out the machete and said, "I picked up these two knives on the way back. There are traces of blood not far away. They might have been dropped after a fight.
Give one each to the village head and the clan leader. There are many more victims in the town, so keep a knife at home for self-defense."
A knife is made of iron, and iron is a controlled item, so you can't buy it casually, and the price is not low.
Kang Hong declined, "Yueran, you keep this knife. Your family should keep one for self-defense. I have many men in my family, so I'm not afraid."
"Grandpa Lizheng, my fists are better than swords. Put it away quickly. I'll ask you to bring one back to my great-grandfather later."
Kang Hong smiled and said, "Your fist is indeed hard, so I will put it away."
After dealing with these things, Kang Yueran and Kang Yuanfeng took Ye to the town to see a doctor. The wound on Ye's head had already scabbed over. It was probably because of blood stasis in the brain that caused her confusion. The doctor prescribed some medicine.
When she came back to boil the medicine, Zhao smelled the medicine and came out from the main room. When she found out that the medicine was boiled for Ye, she pointed at Kang Yueran and asked him where the money came from.
Kang Yueran looked at Zhao coldly and said two words. "Borrowed."
"You went out to borrow money again? Can you afford it? Also, why did you give the broken rice you exchanged for the wild boar to the villagers? They should help, and You'an helped them before. You're a spendthrift! More than 300 kilograms of broken rice, enough for our family to eat for a long time."
"That's what I promised the villagers, and I can't break my promise. Also, we haven't divided the family yet. The money I borrowed is your money, so of course you have to pay it back. All the money my father earned is in your hands."
Zhao was so angry that her eyes almost popped out of her head. "You want me to pay your debt with money? No way. Forget it!"
Kang Youping's door was ajar, and he was listening to the noise outside.
Kang Yueran said, "Grandma, why are you so anxious? Even though your youngest son is gone, you still have your eldest son. Let your uncle go hunting in the mountains to make money. If that doesn't work, let him do hard labor in town. He will always be able to earn money for you."
Hearing this, Kang Youping couldn't help but rush out and stood about seven or eight meters away from Kang Yueran, shouting, "How could you be so vicious, damn girl?"
He looked at Zhao, covered his mouth and coughed a few times, "Mom, with my body, how can I catch prey? Yue Ran is full of strength, let her go hunting."
Kang Yueran easily broke the thick firewood in his hand and said, "I will definitely take uncle with me when I go hunting. Uncle, you'd better start practicing running from now on. After all, there are many man-eating animals in the mountains. If you encounter them, you can always run away even if you can't beat them."
Kang Youping took two steps back in fear. "You, you are trying to kill me! You vicious girl!"
Kang Yueran said to Zhao with a smile on his face, "Grandma, help me pay back the debt. How about I teach my uncle how to hunt? My uncle is plump and white, and his meat smells delicious. He can just stand in the mountains with his bare chest, and prey will come to him."
This allows him to use his body to attract prey!
Kang Youping was so frightened that his legs were shaking. "You vicious girl! You want me to die!"
He cried again, "Mom, I am your only son, your biological son. You can't watch me die."
Gu and Kang Yuanhua were listening to the noise in the house but did not come out. Gu said, "Yuanhua, your grandmother loves you the most. Go and speak well of your father." In her heart, she did not want to get involved in Kang Youping's affairs, but she could not ignore them.
Kang Yuanhua looked embarrassed. "Grandma loves me, but she doesn't always listen to me. It might not work if I say it. Let's wait a little longer."
What if that vicious girl also asks him to attract prey? He won't show up at this time.
Zhao still loved Kang Youping. "That's enough. It's not nice for a grown man to cry like that. Yueran, you are born with supernatural powers. You can go hunting alone."
"So grandma promised to help me pay back the money?"
"Go hunting and pay it back yourself. Don't worry about my money all the time." Zhao turned and went back to the house. She walked a few steps and then stopped. "If Ye is stupid, then she is stupid. Don't give her medicine anymore. It's a waste of money."
Kang Yueran opened her voice again and shouted, "How can it be a waste of money to treat my mother and buy medicine? If you don't smash my mother's head, will my father die? My uncle wants to eat meat, and I don't go hunting. I am vicious, vicious girl, you are the vicious ones!"
Zhao was stunned. "Are you crazy?" She was startled by the loud voice.
Kang Yueran roared, "Yes, I'm crazy. You're driving me crazy."
She took a few steps forward and gave Kang Youping a sinister smile. "Uncle, are you free tomorrow? Let's go hunting together!"
Kang Youping rushed back to his room as if he had seen a ghost.
Zhao was also frightened by that smile and ran back to the house quickly.
