When she was carrying the food to the kitchen, Grandma Wang came out with a bowl with a hole in it and said kindly, "Girl Yue, drink some water."

Li Mengyue was not very thirsty at first, but when she saw Grandma Wang's expectant eyes, she took the bowl and drank it in one gulp.

He handed the bowl to Grandma Wang before telling her his purpose.

"Grandma Wang, you were stepped on and injured at the door of my house this morning. I'm here to help you check your injuries."

"Girl Yue, Grandma Wang is fine. It's just a minor injury. We farmers can just bear with it. There's no way we can pamper her."

Seeing that Grandma Wang was still stubborn, Li Mengyue took out the medicine she had prepared earlier.

"Grandma Wang, if you won't let me see it, you must accept this medicine."

After saying that, without waiting for Grandma Wang to refuse, he put the bottle of medicine in Grandma Wang's hand.

Then the food was taken to the kitchen.

It is called a kitchen, but in fact it is just a thatched shed with a stove made of several stones.

Grandma Wang was a little surprised to see that Li Mengyue had brought food, but she had already taken the medicine for her wounds and could not ask for food anymore.

So he stopped her and said, "Girl Yue, take the food back. You have already given her medicine."

Li Mengyue knew Grandma Wang's principles in dealing with people, so she ignored her and put down the food. She said, "Grandma Wang, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Hey, girl Yue..."

Grandma Wang wanted to stop Li Mengyue and take the food away, but Li Mengyue walked as fast as a meteor, and it was impossible for Grandma Wang to catch up with her even if she took three steps and rested for one step.

"Forget it, let's wait until Tiechui Xiaohua comes back."

Grandma Wang turned and went to the kitchen, but she only saw half a bag of grain and an ounce of silver next to the bowl.

Before Li Mengyue even reached home, she heard the system's cheering voice.

[Tuanzi, what's wrong? You're so happy. 】

[Host, gratitude value +10, should I be happy?] The system's cheerful voice screamed.

[Gratitude value increased? Why didn’t I hear any sound? 】

[Uh, I'm not sure, but it did increase by 10. ]

Li Mengyue thought about it and realized that her gratitude value increased as soon as she came out of Grandma Wang's house. It was probably related to the medicine, food and silver she sent.

It seems that if you want to increase your gratitude value quickly, you still need to do more good deeds.

Thinking of this, Li Mengyue quickened her pace to go home.

Half an incense stick later, Li Mengyue just opened the door and heard her mother calling her.

"Yueyue, come and try the fried locusts. How do they taste?"

"Ok."

Li Mengyue came back just to fry the locusts so that she could quickly take them to the town to sell.

Unexpectedly, her mother had already done it, which saved her a lot of trouble.

"Yueyue, I'm imitating you and making three flavors. Can you try them all?"

"Yes, Yue, your aunts and I have all tried it. It is crispy and delicious. This is the first time we know that locusts can be eaten. Frying them in oil will make your tongue fall off."

When frying the locusts, the village chief's wife was helping. She tasted one and it was indeed delicious.

Originally, she was worried that Yue had spent so much money to buy them, hired someone to process them, and fried them. If she couldn't sell them, she would lose a lot of money.

But now she is relieved. As long as Yue Yatou sells it cheaply, even an ordinary family will be willing to buy a pound of it to feed their children.

After all, locusts are meat. According to Yue Yatou, they are very nutritious and can provide the body with protein and other things.

Li Mengyue tried all three flavors. Overall, they were good, except that the cooking time was a bit off.

But this is not a big problem, you can sell it.

"Mom, it tastes good. I'll go call Mingyu and Minghao back to go to town with me."

As soon as Li Mengyue finished speaking, she heard her brother Minghao's voice: "Sister, sister, I'm back."

Minghao ran home hopping like a little rabbit.

Because he was running too fast, he couldn't stop in time and almost fell to the ground, but Li Mengyue was quick to pull Minghao up.

Mingyu is different. He walks steadily and there is no sign of impatience at all.

"Okay, put down the small bamboo basket and go to town with your sister."

"Okay." Minghao immediately put the small bamboo basket in his hand into his mother's hand and ran to his sister.

Li Mengyue put 20 kilograms of fried locusts into a large backpack and went to Li Laogen's house with her two younger brothers.

Because it takes a long time to get from the village to the town, and before the locust plague breaks out, every minute and every second is precious and cannot be wasted, so it is better to spend a few more cents and take a ox cart.

The three of them quickly arrived at Li Laogen's house, and Li Mengyue knocked on the door: "Uncle Laogen, are you home?"

"Who's at home?"

As the voice fell, the door opened.

"Sister Mengyue, it's you!"

Li Erzhu was holding a small bamboo basket and was about to go to the field to catch locusts, but he didn't expect that Li's sister would come to his house.

"Brother Erzhu, is your ox cart here?"

"Yes, my father has been feeling unwell these days, so he didn't go out." Li Erzhu replied.

Hearing that Niu Che was at home but Uncle Lao Gen was not feeling well, Li Mengyue felt a little embarrassed.

She had never driven a bullock cart before. Although she was a good learner, it was not her own bullock cart, so she did not dare to "ruin" it casually.

She wanted to ask Li Erzhu if he could drive a bullock cart, but Li Erzhu seemed to know what Li Mengyue was going to ask and asked directly: "Sister Mengyue, do you want to go to town by bullock cart?"

Before Li Mengyue could say anything, Li Erzhu continued, "My father can't drive a bullock cart, but I can. Let me take you there!"

After saying this, Li Erzhu went back to the yard to harness the ox cart.

Li Mengyue didn't expect that Li Erzhu would respond with so many sentences to her one sentence. Before she could explain the situation, he immediately hitched the ox cart.

But she didn't intend to refuse, as she had always wanted to ride the ox cart.

"Drive, stop." Li Erzhu drove the ox cart to the door.

"Sister Mengyue, Mingyu, Minghao, hurry up and get on board. I have inherited my driving skills from my father. Don't worry about leaving you behind."

Li Mengyue didn't think much about it at first, but after Li Erzhu said this, she had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, the problem occurred just after we walked one mile.
