It is one thing to feel sorry for the money, but you still have to prepare the things that need to be prepared.
Then Song Yuehua went to the pharmacy and bought two packets of anthelmintic medicine for 100 Wen.
After buying things, the ox cart would not return until the afternoon. There was still early time, so Song Yuehua took the opportunity to stroll around the county town.
Traveling from the east to the west of the city, I asked around before I found out that there were a total of two large restaurants in the county, one was Fumanlou and the other was Zuixiangfang, and there were also quite a few smaller restaurants scattered around.
From now on, the prey she hunts will, if nothing unexpected happens, be sold to these places.
I walked around and asked questions along the way.
The prices offered by the two big restaurants are indeed a little higher, and correspondingly, the requirements for the goods are also a little higher.
The more common pheasants and rabbits cost about 200 wen each, while larger wild boars and roe deer cost 50 wen per pound. If they are more scarce, the price will be negotiated separately.
In short, things are valuable because they are rare.
It was still daylight when I got home.
After Granny Wang explained the situation of Xiaobao and Dabao to Song Yuehua, when they were about to leave, Song Yuehua stopped her and said, "Granny, I have to go into the mountains. I have to trouble you to take care of the little ones for the next three days. I won't be back at night. Can Xiaoyu and the other two stay at your house? It will be 20 cents per night for these three days?"
Granny Wang was so shocked that she didn't know where to start. "You, you want to go to Blind Bear Mountain?"
Blind Bear Mountain! Song Yuehua's heart skipped a beat, but she still nodded and said, "Yes."
"How can this be possible?" Granny Wang was extremely anxious. "You are only 10 years old, how can you go into the mountains, you..."
"Grandma Wang!"
Song Yuehua chuckled and comforted him, "I know what I am doing. There are many places in the family where we need money, and winter is coming soon. I can't let the three of them spend the winter here."
Granny Wang said, "Go to my place..."
"I appreciate your kindness." Song Yuehua interrupted, "Since I brought them out, I can't always let them live under someone else's roof. Mother-in-law, can you help me these few days?"
Granny Wang was so anxious that she was about to cry, but finally, after Song Yuehua's constant nagging, she had no choice but to nod helplessly.
Song Yuehua was about to pay the 60-cent copper coin first, but Granny Wang turned away and refused to take it, saying, "I'll tell you when you come back."
After saying that, he sighed heavily and turned and left.
Xiaoyu cooked a pot of rice, and the bone and radish soup was stewed in the pot until it was milky white.
There were a lot more things on the table, a blue egg and a big bag of corn next to it.
Before Song Yuehua could ask, Xiaoyu said, "The eggs were sent by Aunt Tang, and the rice was sent by the village head grandfather."
Song Yuehua was touched. Rice and eggs were considered precious commodities in the village. The Zhang family and the head of the village probably didn't expect her to return them.
No matter whether it is the Zhang family, the Zhou family, or Grandma Wang, Song Yuehua can only remember this kindness for the time being.
After putting the things under the bed, Song Yuehua prepared to start cooking dinner.
There are still some green peppers left from yesterday. Wash them, cut them into small pieces, fry them with lard until soft, then pour in the egg liquid, stir-fry slightly and then serve.
The two of them enjoyed a hearty meal of green pepper and egg, bone and radish soup, and corn rice.
Xiaoyu touched her round belly and said, "Sister, how long can we live like this?"
"It won't be long." Song Yuehua joked, and before Xiaoyu could feel disappointed, she added, "The days ahead will only get better and better."
Getting better?
Better than now? Xiaoyu couldn't imagine it, but she believed in her elder sister. While cleaning up the dishes, she said, "As long as I can be with my elder sister, any life will be good."
No one hit her, no one scolded her. In Xiaoyu's opinion, this was a good life.
Song Yuehua nodded lightly and went to look at the twins. The big and small babies had already finished their feeding, changed into new clothes, and were now lying on the bed blowing bubbles.
Song Yuehua discovered that her children were very obedient.
Every time she is not at home, Xiaoyu will keep the house clean, take care of the lamb, wash clothes, change diapers, cook, feed and clean. She is the one who does it all.
As for the big and small babies, I have never seen such easy-to-care-for babies. Apart from changing diapers and feeding them, I basically don’t need to worry too much about them.
It is her blessing to be a big sister to these three little ones.
When Xiaoyu brought in the bowls, chopsticks and pots, Song Yuehua was tearing her father's clothes into strips. Xiaoyu felt a pain in her heart and asked, "Sister, do you need help?"
Song Yuehua picked up a few strips of cloth, demonstrated to her, and explained, "I'm going to weave a net and take it to the mountains tomorrow. If everything goes well, our livelihood will be settled. Let me tell you in advance, if I don't come back tomorrow night, you and the twins will go to Granny Wang's house to sleep for three days at most. I'll be back after three days."
"Three days? So long?" Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel nervous.
Song Yuehua comforted him, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back. Please ask Xiaoyu to look after the house for the next few days, okay?"
Xiaoyu couldn't help being afraid, "Sister, they said there are blind bears in the mountains, can you please not go..."
Bear!
Song Yuehua felt bitter, but there was nothing she could do. She had lived for thirty years in her previous life and practiced archery for twenty years. If she didn't do this, she wouldn't be able to do anything else!
When I have more money in the future, I can always think of other ways to make money. Now I have to make Xiaoyu feel at ease.
"Don't be afraid. The bears are all in the deep. I won't go in. I'll just hunt pheasants and rabbits on the outskirts. Don't worry. It's very safe."
Song Yuehua spoke so confidently that Xiaoyu reluctantly believed her.
Having said that, Song Yuehua took out the remaining seven taels of silver from her arms, took Xiaoyu to dig a hole in the corner of the wall, and then wrapped the money in rags and buried it inside.
Pointing at this place, he said, "Remember this place, don't tell anyone, and come back to dig when you need money urgently, okay?"
