Mrs. Yuan's words made a lot of sense, and Mr. Yuan nodded. He decided not to go to work tomorrow.
Killing a rabbit at home.
Yuan Shitou and his team are going to dig up all the sweet potatoes.
We're going to level the ground and plant some wheat.
We also need to build roads.
However, the road construction will be postponed. I suspect it will be done after winter when there's not much else to do.
Therefore, when Yuan Shitou and his group went down the mountain this time, they still had to take the same path they had previously cleared.
That's settled then.
During the day, Yuan's father stopped going to work and stayed home to kill rabbits.
Processing rabbit skin.
Yuan Shitou also helped when he came back from work.
Whether it was killing the rabbit or pickling it, it was all done by him and his son.
The women in the family did not get involved.
Fan Tiesheng was going to go down the mountain with them.
Yuan Min's breast milk was insufficient, and the children in the family were constantly hungry and crying every day.
With the help of his two older brothers, Fan Tiesheng went up the mountain and caught a dairy goat.
However, luck wasn't on their side; the milk from the goats that Feilibala had caught was almost gone, with only a little bit of milk remaining.
He's been extremely stressed these days.
Grandma Yuan couldn't bear to see the children go hungry, so she cooked rice into porridge and fed them.
Little did I know that their two little brats would be really infuriating.
No matter how you try to feed him, he won't eat; he only drinks milk.
Grandma Yuan had no choice but to swallow her pride and go to the village several times to ask two young women who were breastfeeding for milk.
Every time I went, I brought a lot of things with me.
I felt too embarrassed to go after that.
Other people's babies are getting older, and they don't have enough breast milk.
Having no extra money to give her, I had to think of another way.
So Fan Tiesheng decided to wander around in the mountains.
I want to get another goat that produces milk.
They wandered around several times but couldn't find any goats with milk.
Looking at her pitiful son, she felt terrible.
One day, he suddenly had a strange idea. He went and squeezed half a bowl of their dog's milk and fed it to his son.
The two sons actually ate with great relish.
What kind of mess is this?
Logically speaking, children their age should be eating some complementary foods.
But they just wouldn't eat.
If you force-feed it a little, the crying will be so loud it could blow the whole house away.
Yuan Min shed countless tears every day, causing Fan Tiesheng a great deal of trouble.
Xiao Xiao also brought Yuan Min a lot of good things so that she could replenish her energy.
We tried to see if we could produce some milk, but the result was disappointing and it was of little use.
So whenever villagers talk about whose child cries the most,
Then the answer would definitely be Fan Tiesheng's two sons.
These two little guys are so small, yet they're already so mischievous.
I wonder how mischievous they'll be when they grow up.
Some people even say that these two young men are just like Fan Tiesheng.
Because Fan Tiesheng was also very mischievous when he was young.
In the past, Fan's mother revolved around Fan Xiaohua every day.
Now she spends all her time taking care of her two grandsons.
I don't know how many tears I've shed every day.
The two children were not getting enough to eat, and they were so thin and pale that they looked pitiful.
Xiao Xiao told Fan Tiesheng to go down the mountain to buy milk powder.
Milk powder is now available for sale.
She had heard Uncle Lin mention it once.
This milk powder is so convenient; you can just mix it with warm water and drink it.
It's a bit expensive, and I don't even know if I'll be able to buy it.
He was also reminded to go to Uncle Lin, who should be able to get some for him.
If we can just get through two more months, the child will be able to eat other things once they are a bit older.
That being said, we can't go down the mountain empty-handed.
A round trip would take more than ten days.
In addition, the production team was busy with the autumn harvest and couldn't spare the time.
He didn't dare go down the mountain alone, so he had to go with the rest of the team.
They're not busy now, so they need to hurry down the mountain so they can plant wheat when they get back.
This time, there were quite a few people coming down the mountain.
There are almost 20 people in total.
Yuan Shitou was strong and could carry a lot of things.
Yuan's father specially wove an extra-large basket for him.
It's twice the size of other people's baskets.
However, all the items I picked were practical and useful. Although they took up a lot of space, they contained a lot of stuff.
No one laughed at him.
Some people offered to help him carry some things, but he refused.
He felt bad about letting people help him for nothing, given how far the journey was.
The group of people were carrying baskets; they all had some local produce to sell.
As she left, Yun Yao reminded Yuan Shitou that he must not go to see Uncle Lin until the evening.
We absolutely must not let anyone find out.
If they are discovered, all of these things will definitely be confiscated.
They might even get arrested.
Fearing that Yuan Shitou had a fiery temper, he also gave Fan Tiesheng some instructions.
Xiao Xiao was finally relieved after the two nodded and assured her repeatedly.
After Yuan Shitou and his companions descended the mountain, they kept the small instruction firmly in mind.
They waited on the mountain until it got dark for quite a while before carrying their things towards Uncle Lin's shop.
They walked in the dark without torches, for fear of attracting attention.
He kept looking around, constantly alert to his surroundings, just like a thief.
The group of people quietly crouched outside Uncle Lin's shop.
They even had someone keep watch around the area.
Yuan Shitou then knocked on the door according to the code given by Uncle Lin.
After a while, no one came to open it.
Yuan Shitou tapped it gently again.
Uncle Lin happened to walk to the door.
I guess it might be Xiaoxiao and the others who have arrived.
This was a secret code he and Xiaoxiao had agreed upon, and no one else knew it.
He quickly opened the door and saw a lot of people outside.
He shone his flashlight on the ground and saw Yuan Shitou standing in front of him, which put his mind at ease.
I looked outside again, but didn't see the little figure.
I'm still very confused.
Yuan Shitou said in a low voice, "Uncle Lin, we've checked, no one is following us."
We came down the mountain after dark, and headed straight here.
Uncle Lin quickly ushered them in and asked:
"Where's Xiaoxiao? Why didn't he come?"
Yuan Shitou jumped the things in and chuckled:
"Uncle Lin, Xiao Xiao is pregnant."
So she didn't go down the mountain this time.
Uncle Lin was taken aback for a moment, then laughed: "Xiao Xiao is pregnant? Great, great!"
Come inside with me quickly, I'll bring her some good things to help her recover later.
Don't let your health deteriorate.
The people behind followed Uncle Lin, carrying their belongings.
They stopped when they reached the designated place to put their belongings.
Two more people got up now.
Yuan Shitou knew these people; they were Uncle Lin's youngest apprentices.
She was specifically there to help Uncle Lin with his tasks.
Uncle Lin asked his young apprentice to pour some water for the group, and then spoke to Yuan Shitou.
"Please sit down and have some water. I'll go ask your aunt to make you something to eat."
Those people felt bad and quickly shook their heads, saying it wasn't necessary.
They had already eaten on the mountain.
Considering there were nearly 20 of them, how much food must they have eaten?
These days, nobody's rich, so it's best not to go and ruin other people's things.
Uncle Lin didn't say much, only "Wait," and then left.
