Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her
Chapter 140: 1 Cow and 1 Donkey
When Li Mengyue was thinking about this, she suddenly felt a little thirsty. She took out the water bag and drank some water. She was about to put the water bag into the backpack.
The ox and donkey that wanted to escape just now rushed to Li Mengyue, staring at the water bag, which was very interesting.
What’s strange is that at this moment, Li Mengyue actually understood the little thoughts of the ox and the donkey.
"You guys want some water too?"
The ox blinked its big eyes, and the donkey nodded humanely, tilting its neck back again: "Ah ang oh."
"Okay, I got it. I'll give you some drinks when we get to a place where there's no one."
It’s not that Li Mengyue is stingy, but that she drank spiritual spring water.
She just opened the lid and took a sip, which attracted the attention of cattle and donkeys.
Now they had just walked out of the livestock market, and if she blatantly gave the cattle and donkeys the spiritual spring water.
What if it causes a livestock riot in the market? She was not exaggerating, but she had done experiments before.
Some time ago, when she went hunting in the mountains, she accidentally spilled some water while drinking. In less than a cup of tea, she attracted a lot of prey.
Since she didn't go to the deep mountains, but just the junction of the deep mountains and the outer areas, no large animals were attracted, only pheasants, rabbits and the like.
However, this also made her realize that the spiritual spring water was very useful when hunting and could save a lot of effort.
When the ox and the donkey heard that they could drink the water that was attractive to them when they went to a place with fewer people, they stopped resisting and followed the route Li Mengyue said.
Li Mengyue sat on the ox cart, and the ox moved obediently without being driven.
After walking for half an hour, Li Mengyue picked a broad leaf from the roadside, took out the water bag, and poured some water on the leaf.
The ox and the donkey drank it immediately, and then licked the leaves until there was no drop of water on the leaves.
The cow and the donkey drank the water and followed Li Mengyue back to Xinghua Village.
When the villagers saw that Li Mengyue bought an ox cart and a donkey, they all showed envious expressions.
But no one is jealous. They all rely on the Li family to catch locusts to make money and supplement their family income.
Some families have more people and they catch a lot every day, so they naturally make more money from selling them. They also buy some meat to improve their lives, which is a treatment they only get during the Chinese New Year.
Everyone is very grateful to Li Mengyue and hopes that the Li family will get better and better so that they can also benefit from it.
"Girl Yue, you're back. Is this the ox cart and donkey you bought?"
"Ah."
"My goodness, I knew that Yue girl was capable. All the girls in our village put together are not as good as you."
Seeing the old lady giving her a thumbs up and praising herself, even though Li Mengyue was thick-skinned, she didn't dare to say that she was better than all the girls in the village.
So Li Mengyue smiled awkwardly and said, "Auntie, I have something else to do. I'll leave first."
He patted the scalper and signaled him to go home quickly.
After Li Mengyue left, she didn't hear what the old lady said behind her.
"The biological daughter that the Li family has adopted is really good. Not only is she pretty, but she's also capable. Now everyone in the village speaks highly of the Li family."
"What a pity. She has been with a beggar and has lost her chastity. It will be difficult for her to get married. No decent family would want a daughter-in-law who is so promiscuous."
When they got home, the village head's wife and other women who were working at home were all envious when they saw Li Mengyue leading the ox and the donkey.
In those days, it was a big deal for anyone to have a cow, let alone an extra donkey.
Although a donkey is not as expensive as a cow, it is still livestock and can be used to pull millstones.
"Girl, are these the cow and donkey you bought?" Li An asked.
When Li Mengyue saw her father at home, she knew that all the fruit tree seedlings on the mountain had been planted.
"Ah."
Li An walked forward, led the cow and the donkey over, and prepared to tie them to the corner.
I used to think that my home was big, but with the addition of a cow and a donkey, the yard suddenly became smaller, and the idea of building a house became stronger and stronger.
"Dad, there is something I want to discuss with you."
"Daughter, what's the matter, tell me."
"I want to build a house. The house we live in now is too old. It's still habitable now, but it won't be habitable in winter. So I want to build the house before winter comes."
When Li An heard his daughter talking about building a house, he felt extremely guilty. Not only did he fail to feed his daughter well after she came back, but his injured leg also made her a burden.
After being separated from his hometown, if it were in the past, he would be satisfied as long as he had a place to stay.
But it’s different now that I have a daughter. I still have to find a way to let her live in the new house.
"My daughter, Dad's leg is fine now. I will go to the town to find someone to buy bricks and tiles and choose an auspicious day to start the construction."
"I just don't know where you want to build the house or what kind of shape you want it to be."
Li Mengyue was very satisfied that her father took action without asking. If Li An interfered too much in her affairs, she probably wouldn't have given so much.
"Just build it on the wasteland next to it. I can give you the design of the house tomorrow."
"okay."
After hearing the promise from his daughter, Li An happily went to buy bricks and tiles.
"Dad, drive the ox cart to town. It will be faster this way. And after school this afternoon, go to Chongwen Academy to pick up my brothers."
Li An knew that his three sons had gone to school, but he didn't expect that they went to Chongwen Academy.
Although he had not received much education, he had heard of the reputation of Chongwen Academy. Now he didn't have to worry about the future livelihood of his three sons.
After all, he had studied in Chongwen Academy. Even if he did not take the imperial examination, literacy was a great advantage. In the future, he could be an accountant or a shopkeeper, which would be enough to support his family.
But he also felt that he owed his daughter more and more.
All the ducklings that Li Mengyue promised to the villagers have been obtained. It can be said that every household in Qingshan Town has raised ducklings.
The locusts in the fields were gradually disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and there were not so many people coming to the Li family to sell locusts.
If we used to harvest more than 1,000 kilograms a day, now it’s good if we can harvest 500 kilograms.
As the days passed, the three younger brothers adapted to the life in the college. They got up early to go to school every day, and came back from school and ran happily to look for the little ducks.
It was just a small incident that happened to my three younger brothers in college.
The backpacks she asked her mother to make for her younger brothers were favored by her classmates, who all wanted a similar backpack.
Li Mengyue asked Mingyu to count how many people wanted it. Each order was fifty cents, and they received three hundred orders at once.
In this way, asking women in the village to make schoolbags can provide everyone with a job opportunity and earn more money.
The village chief's wife and others had experience in making fried locusts. They were all very simple and honest people who would not cheat or do anything cunning. In addition, Li Mengyue would make some delicious food from time to time and share some with them, which won the hearts of several women.
So Li Mengyue asked her mother to find someone to make a schoolbag.
