After becoming a top-notch peasant woman, she continues to be a top-notch
Chapter 13 The Ghost Possessed
Zhen Yue turned her eyes to the backpack behind him, "Have you bought all the things?"
Everyone noticed that the backpack behind Qiao Chao looked heavy. Qiao Chao quickly took the backpack off and first took out the cakes and handed them to Qiao Chenshi, "I bought some cakes."
Then he took out various odds and ends, and a piece of cloth. Qiao Chen touched the cloth and asked, "Why did you buy so many things? How much did it cost?"
Qiao Chao: “Not much.”
Qiao Dashan on the side also showed the chickens to everyone, "Didn't the previous chicken die? We bought a few more chicks."
Xiaohua came over immediately and said, "I will feed the chicks well." When the chicks grow up, they can eat chicken. Xiaohua swallowed her saliva at the thought of eating chicken.
Qiao Chao also handed over the fat pork, "Pork."
Qian took it as soon as she saw it. When she saw the large piece of fat meat, she immediately became excited. "So fat! It's just right for refining oil. I'll take it to the kitchen right away."
After putting away all the things, Qiao Chao and Qiao Dashan finally had time to sit on the chairs to drink water and rest. Zhen Yue also sat aside. "How much did you sell it for?"
Qiao Chao took out the money from his pocket and said, "Five taels. I spent about half a tael on shopping, so I have four and a half taels left."
Qiao Chen and the others were all stunned, "So... so much?" They thought that one or two taels would be at most.
Qiao Dashan: "We sold it to a wealthy family in the county town, and they gave us five taels directly. I was also shocked at the time."
Qiao Chao handed the money to Zhen Yue, who looked at Qiao Chen and said, "Give it to mom."
Qiao Chao immediately handed the money to Qiao Chenshi, who took it carefully. She was a little trembling holding so much money in her hands. It was the first time she held so much money.
Qian was also very happy, fortunately her sister-in-law did not keep it all for herself.
However, Qiao Chen thought about it for a while, and gave Qiao Er fifty coins and Qiao Chao fifty coins, "You can't do without some money, so I'll give this to you."
Qiao Chao did not refuse, and Qiao Er waved his hand, "I don't need it, I don't need it, this deer was shot by my elder brother."
Qian immediately twisted him, then took it immediately, "Yes, yes, thank you, mother, and thank you, brother, and sister-in-law." Qian glared at Qiao Er, how could she refuse! Although the prey was killed by the eldest brother, they also worked at home, right?
Qiao Er felt embarrassed seeing Qian Shi like this. He glanced at Zhen Yue, but Zhen Yue didn't say anything.
After putting the money away, Mrs. Qiao Chen took out the newly bought cakes and gave each of them a small piece, the three children got one piece, and Mrs. Zhen got a large piece.
Everyone ate it in small bites. This was good stuff and no one wanted to finish it all at once. Zhen Yue was okay. She put it directly into her mouth, chewed it, tasted it, and swallowed it. It was just average and the taste was not very good, but for others it was already very delicious.
It is said that sugar was a very precious thing in this dynasty, and was generally only available to nobles. Ordinary people could only eat malt sugar, or sugar made from malt, or occasionally a little honey in the mountains. These were the only things they could eat.
After the three children slowly finished eating the cakes in the corner, they kept licking their fingers, hoping that there would be some sweetness left on their fingers.
Sweetness is a very luxurious feeling for them at this moment.
Qiao Chao took a bite and found it very coarse and unpalatable, but seeing how relishing others were eating it, he still forced himself to swallow it in one bite.
But I didn’t expect that Zhen on the side didn’t show that kind of surprised expression?
After eating, Qiao Dashan and Qiao Chao went to rest. They had been walking for most of the day. Qiao Chao originally wanted to take a bath, but the conditions were not good. There was not even a bathroom in this house. Everyone just fetched water and washed in their own rooms. Men could occasionally wash at the river, and women could occasionally make an appointment with a group to go to a secluded river to wash, but it was rare.
So in the end, Qiao Chao could only wash his face with water, wipe his neck and so on, then go back to the room, take off his coat and lie down on the bed. Don't mention it, he was quite tired today and he almost couldn't bear it.
Zhen Yue has never washed her hair or taken a bath since she came here, but she occasionally went without a bath for several days during the apocalypse, so she could still bear it.
Qiao Chao fell asleep very quickly. He didn't move when Zhen Yue came in. Zhen Yue looked at him for a while and then left.
It was unknown how long it took before Qiao Chao woke up from his sleep when he smelled the fragrance of chicken. It had only been such a short time, but the smell of chicken actually made him feel greedy.
For several days in a row, there were no more thieves coming to the Lin family, and they suspected that it was really done by humans.
"It can't really be a ghost." Ma suddenly felt creepy.
Lin Shi: "What are you talking about? How could there be a ghost?" Lin Shi was actually not sure, but he couldn't think of who could do such a thing. If he had to suspect someone, he should have suspected Mr. Qiao, after all, his son also killed Mr. Qiao's chicken.
But how could Qiao Da be so powerful? Even if Qiao Da became stronger than him last time, it was impossible for him to do such a thing so quietly?
Or is it that Qiao Da is possessed by a ghost?
Lin Shi suddenly became frightened and immediately told Ma about his guess.
Ma slapped her thigh and said, "I also feel that Zhen's quarrels have become more intense recently. Could Zhen also be possessed by a ghost?"
Lin Shi: "...But Zhen is still so fierce."
Mrs. Ma: "It seems so... But Mr. Qiao still looks the same. Look, so many days have passed, and nothing has happened to the Qiao family. They even ate meat before." The Qiao family seemed to be getting better and better. When she passed by the Qiao family before, she even smelled meat.
Lin Shi: "...Is it possible that they ate the chicken killed by Xiaohu?"
Ma: ...
Lin Shi: "You should pay more attention to the Qiao family recently. By the way, let's worship our ancestors later in the evening." Worship our ancestors and ask for their blessings.
Ma: "Okay, okay, I'll get ready."
At the Qiao family's side, Qiao Chao occasionally followed to do some farm work, and occasionally went to the mountains to take a look, and from time to time he could catch a pheasant or rabbit.
The family now raises chickens and pigs. In their free time, Qiao Chen and Qian do some needlework. Qian occasionally goes out to listen to gossip under the big banyan tree in the village and tells it to her family when she comes back.
As for Zhen Yue, she just sleeps, takes a walk, and occasionally helps to pick vegetables. Anyway, she doesn't do any hard work. Being pregnant is tiring enough. Recently, she has been waking up frequently at night. Her stomach moves from time to time, and her legs cramp. She doesn't sleep well at night.
I remember when she first experienced a cramp, she woke up immediately due to the pain, but it was difficult for her to rub her feet with her hands, so she kicked Qiao Chao awake, "Get up!"
Qiao Chao now has to work every day and sleeps soundly at night. He was still a little confused after being kicked like this, "How dare you!"
Zhen Yue heard this and said, "What are you saying? Get up! I think you are the one who is being presumptuous!"
Qiao Chao finally woke up completely: "What's wrong?"
