Chapter 61 Stinginess



After descending the mountain, I went straight to hand in my task, chatted with Grandma Cheng for a few more minutes, and then carried my basket home.

Yunxi didn't know why, but the last time she went to the market, she felt like she was doing something wrong; it was just something she did subconsciously.

After returning from the market, Yunxi's first action was to rush into the kitchen, ready to treat herself to a good meal.

It's well past mealtime, and I'm starving.

I didn't plan to cook anything too complicated. I just took out the potato noodles I bought at the market. They only need to be cooked briefly and won't take up much time.

While the vermicelli was cooking, I went to the backyard and picked some scallions and peeled two cloves of garlic. When it was ready to be taken out of the pot, I put them in directly.

To make the rice noodles taste better, Yunxi added several drops of sesame oil. As for how it tastes?

I can only say that it lived up to my expectations and didn't waste those few drops of sesame oil; it was indeed quite delicious.

After eating and drinking my fill, I heard the chickens in the backyard clucking incessantly, and I knew it wasn't time for me to rest yet.

I quickly went to the backyard to feed the chickens, put some water in a broken earthenware pot for them, and collected their four eggs. Then I returned from the backyard.

Looking at the sky now, it seems like the next two days will still be sunny.

I was originally planning to blanch the wild vegetables in the afternoon and chop up the hawthorns in my space, but I figured the weather would be nice for the next two days, so there was no need to rush.

The most important thing now is to quickly take those medicinal herbs to the town and see what the purchase price is at the pharmacies.

If the price is acceptable, then I can continue to dig for medicinal herbs in the mountains, which is a legitimate way for me to make money.

If the price isn't great, Yunxi doesn't think she'll be short of money. After all, wild boar meat is quite expensive these days, and secretly selling it in town is another way to make money.

Yunxi herself has a bit of the Pixiu attribute; once food enters her space, she feels reluctant to take it out.

Unless she has an exceptionally large quantity of this kind of food, more than she could ever finish, she might not be so generous.

Just like the fish in the river, the river at the entrance connects to the main river, so the fish will never go extinct.

So she doesn't really care, and she wouldn't feel bad if she took it out to exchange for money.

But when it comes to exchanging wild boar meat for money, there's always a feeling of reluctance; this stingy and miserly nature is something that will stay with me for life.

I sat under the eaves for a while, checked the time, and realized I still had about half an hour before work. I planned to wait until everyone in the village started work before heading to town.

But I can't waste this half hour. I can't fall asleep at all if I want to take a nap, but I don't feel like doing anything.

In the end, I could only take out a book from my spatial storage, intending to continue reading the book I was halfway through last time.

At least the information in the book can cure diseases and save lives. Although I may not necessarily choose to become a doctor in the future, it is still useful to learn more.

I quietly read for half an hour, and only put the book into my spatial storage after the brigade headquarters' loudspeaker blared.

They took out all the herbs from the space. Although they were all bundled up, they hadn't been packed into sacks yet.

All the medicinal herbs were packed into burlap sacks. Except for two sacks which were left outside to be carried, the rest were stored in the spatial storage.

As I came out of the house, I could see people walking towards the work area from afar, which told me that there were still some lazy people dawdling and not going to work yet.

He planned to wait until everyone had left before going, so he took a long stick from the side and turned over all the weeds by the door to continue drying them.

I've been airing it out for two or three days now, and I think I can put it away in another day or two.

Yunxi felt that she had become too diligent. She thought that she might have been very diligent before, but as a tree, no matter how diligent she was, she couldn't accomplish much.

She was only a little more diligent in her cultivation, and after all, diligent cultivation is useful. At the very least, it allowed her to transcend the tribulation within a thousand years. Although she didn't succeed, her efforts cannot be denied.

I suppose it's because now that I'm a human being, I can travel around freely, so I don't like staying in the same place all the time.

Because I got tired of staying in the same place when I was working on trees before, I seem particularly diligent now, busy and never stopping.

Looking around, it seemed that most of the villagers who were supposed to be working had already gone to work, leaving only some children or elderly people who were no longer working.

He carried a basket on his back and two burlap sacks, locked the door, and headed towards the town.

On the way, they encountered some children running around. The children greeted Yunxi, called her "Sister Yunxi," and then ran away.

They wouldn't care at all about what she had on her; playing games was far more appealing to them.

Just as they were about to leave the village, Yunxi noticed someone watching her. Following the direction of the gaze, she saw Yun Zhaodi, who hadn't had time to look away.

It really felt like a haunting ghost. After glancing at her and recognizing Yun Zhaodi, I immediately turned my head away and refused to look at her again.

Instead of wasting time with her here, I'd better get the things to town as soon as possible. If she wants to cause trouble, let her come. I'm not afraid of anything, being a peach blossom spirit.

He'd see if he could whip her to death. Her body wasn't as tough as a wild boar's; he used to be able to kill wild boars with a single branch. If Yun Zhaodi dared to provoke him, he'd let her experience what it felt like to be whipped with a branch.

Yun Zhaodi looked at Yun Xi, that brat, who completely ignored her, and then walked out of the village with resentment in her eyes.

Why is it that that brat doesn't have to work or do anything else, and can go wherever she wants?

I'm no worse than him, so why do I have to do all the housework, laundry, cooking, and cleaning? I even have to earn work points outside. God is so unfair.

Keep all your resentment inside, and it will probably explode when you can no longer hide it.
