"Hmm, five, I suppose. Two of them will inevitably have to be given to that Grand Minister of Agriculture."
"good!"
Chi Yu didn't take out the zongzi immediately. Instead, she took her sister to the vicinity of Guantian and then took out the zongzi.
Because she was in a hurry, she didn't even say goodbye to her older brother, but instead rushed to catch the bus towards Chijia'ao.
On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, she went to the bamboo forest halfway up the mountain and released Chi Erxiong and Chi Sanbao.
At the same time, along with them came a log wheel and Zhuangzhuang, who was fast asleep.
Today, Chijia'ao is only 1,000 meters above sea level, and since she had already traveled halfway up the mountain, their return trip was quick.
After releasing the man, Chi Yu said to his two older brothers:
"Second brother, third brother, you should go back and spend the holiday with your two wives."
Inside the wooden bucket with the single-wheeled wheel are pastries, rice, noodles, dried meat, and zongzi (sticky rice dumplings).
Give the pastries and dried meat to your second and third sisters-in-law, and let them give a few small portions.
Rice and flour are refined rice and wheat flour, for Zhuangzhuang and you all to eat.
In addition to the eight small zongzi, two were given to each of Master Shen, Village Chief Song, the clan elders, and the Third Uncle's family.
Another thing is that my sister-in-law and I have been busy these past few days.
I'm worried about leaving Zhuangzhuang inside since none of you are inside!
So, take it back and ask your second and third sisters-in-law to help take care of it.
I will definitely be back before the tenth of the month at the latest!
Chi Erxiong and Chi Sanbao felt sorry for her when they saw how tired she looked.
But seeing that she wasn't going back, and had to travel in this heat, I knew it was because of the grain.
So the two nodded, then one hugged Zhuangzhuang and the other pushed the log wheel away in a long stride.
It was getting hotter and hotter, and they wanted to get home before the sun came up!
In this weather, Chi Yu felt it would take two days to travel from the mountainside of Chijia'ao to Anping County.
She drove the car a distance away from Wangwan before putting it away and then entered her spatial dimension.
When she came out again, the sun had already set, but the temperature was still 46 degrees Celsius.
The temperature suddenly rose, making her feel suffocated.
Stepping out of the space is equivalent to the temperature suddenly increasing by more than twenty degrees.
If she hadn't applied cooling balm to her temples and philtrum, and then put a fever-reducing patch on her forehead, and hadn't gotten her outer clothes wet, it would have been a mistake.
She felt like she might suddenly faint from the heat!
Fortunately, I was mentally prepared, and I was also holding a palm-leaf fan, so I got used to it in no time.
The same was true for the horse; fortunately, its fur was soaked before it came out.
After another overnight journey, she arrived in the county town on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
Instead of going in and out of the city repeatedly as her sister had suggested, she went home first and put her things out.
The surrounding houses, which also belonged to them, had already been built, but they were all empty.
The fish in the pond mainly placed the potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn here.
She felt that Fang Shizhong suspected her, and even if she was just putting on an act, he wouldn't believe her.
So she simply rested for a day and waited until dark before taking a bus out again.
He returned at midnight, then carried ten zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) and headed towards the county government office.
Fang Shizhong was a good leader who cared about the people.
Even on such a hot day, when every household was trying to avoid the heat, he didn't let himself have any free time.
He ordered people to sprout mung beans and sell them cheaply to the people.
On the one hand, they also had people brew herbal tea and give half a bowl to those who had suffered from severe heatstroke after being treated by doctors.
Not only that, after midnight, he personally led people to fetch water from the moat.
It doesn't matter if the river water is murky; as long as we bring it back, we can always filter it and make it drinkable.
The weather is extremely hot now, and the water level in the river is visibly decreasing every day.
