Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

Only after Liu Sangui's family left did Xia Shengsheng breathe a sigh of relief.

Now these things are clear. Otherwise, if there was such a big commotion at home just a few days after the separation, even if Mrs. Liu didn't say anything, everyone else would suspect whether Xia Shengsheng stole or robbed them.

"Mom, please don't go to the mountains anymore, okay?"

The youngest, Liu Sicheng, hooked one of Xia Shengsheng's fingers.

He asked with anticipation in his eyes.

The other children also silently stopped what they were doing and looked at Xia Shengsheng, waiting for her answer.

"Be good, Sicheng, don't worry, I'm fine. I just said something so scary to scare them. You all know how dangerous this mountain is. If I hadn't said something scary, and someone else had gone with me to look for wild ginseng in the mountains, wouldn't that have harmed them?

That's why I told a little lie.

But don't learn from me in the future! Lying is wrong.

Even if it is a white lie, you have to think twice before you tell it. "

Xia Shengsheng looked at her ignorant children. She didn't want to raise some little liars in the future.

So some principles need to be made clear in advance.

As for what the future will be like, that depends on their future luck.

"Okay, okay, don't be unhappy. Mom brought you some delicious food. Come and see what it is."

Xia Shengsheng distributed the snacks she bought in the city to the children, but the children might have been frightened and refused to take the food Xia Shengsheng gave them.

Later, Xia Shengsheng promised again and again that he would never go to the mountains again and would never do anything dangerous again. Only then did the children feel at ease to take the things Xia Shengsheng handed over.

Looking at things I had never seen before, I didn’t know how to eat them.

Especially the lifelike sugar figures with various patterns.

I have a feeling, how can such a beautiful thing be eaten?

Even if it is just placed there, it will be pleasing to the eye and people will love it.

Xia Shengsheng didn't care what the children thought.

I put the remaining things in the backpack directly into the house without sorting them out one by one.

After all, I wanted to tidy up, but there was not even a cabinet in the empty house, so I had no place to put things.

Oh! Take your time.

You can't become fat in one bite.

Even though he had nowhere to put the silver he earned from selling today, Xia Shengsheng was afraid that such a shabby little house would attract thieves.

Before today, probably no one would want to steal from Xia Shengsheng's empty house.

But after today, it will no longer be allowed.

Although I explained to everyone present at the time that the money from selling the wild animals was used to exchange for the current items, there was nothing left.

But not everyone will believe this.

To ensure that nothing goes wrong, the silver and banknotes must be kept in a safe place.

Xia Shengsheng felt that he should ask Qiqi later. It would be best if he had a safe or something to keep important belongings there so that it would be safer!

And I also want to ask Qiqi if I can give her the corn seeds on credit first and pay her back later!

But there is no rush now. We have to wait until the children fall asleep before taking any action.

Xia Shengsheng left the children who were happily enjoying the delicious food and went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

Take out the meat and big bones you bought yesterday and wash off the salt grains on the surface first.

Just when I was about to wash the newly bought pot, I saw that the house was still using the wooden basin given by the Li family to hold water.

This is too inconvenient.

He turned around and called Liu Ercheng out.

"Mom, you called me!"

After Liu Ercheng came out of the house, he brought out three little kids. Xia Shengsheng felt like he had a hundred people responding to his call.

"Go to your Grandpa Li's house and ask if he has a ready-made bucket. If he does, just buy one. If not, ask the Li family to make one for you.

I'll give you more money and give it directly to them..."

Xia Shengsheng finished explaining halfway, but then felt something was wrong.

She should have gone there in person and thanked the Li family sisters-in-law for their help that day.

"Goodbye, I'll go by myself! Yiyi, mix some flour, use white flour! We'll make dumplings tonight.

Ercheng, wash and chop the meat! I'm going out for a while and will be back soon."

Xia Shengsheng gave instructions and prepared the bone soup before going out. Of course, the water was also fetched by Liu Ercheng and his friends one by one.

It is true that children from poor families have to grow up early. Although they are young, they are very skillful at doing their work.

When going out, Xia Shengsheng divided the mung bean cake into four small bags and went to Li's house first with one bag.

The young master of the Li family happened to have just finished serving today. When Xia Shengsheng went there, the whole family was at home!

Li Youcai was sitting at the door smoking a pipe.

The two brothers of the Li family took on the carpentry work before the rush of production.

Li Laoer's wife was feeding chickens in the yard.

Seeing Xia Shengsheng coming, he was the first to greet her.

"Sister Xia is here. I just wanted to go see you! I haven't found the time yet!

I heard that your mother-in-law bullied you again? You are too good-tempered. Why don’t you show the same attitude you did a few days ago? Will you still let that old woman bully you? "

Villagers spread news the fastest. In less than an hour, most people knew about the farce at the village entrance.

But this is also the effect Xia Shengsheng wants.

Otherwise, there would be these things added for no reason and I would have to explain them one by one later.

"Cough cough..." Li Youcai, who was sitting at the door smoking a pipe, couldn't help coughing a few times, interrupting his second daughter-in-law's words.

He is the kind of good-natured person. As long as it has nothing to do with him, he is unwilling to let his family interfere, so as not to offend anyone.

If you stand at the door and talk about other people's gossip so loudly, and then Old Lady Liu finds out, who knows what will happen.

But he really couldn't stand the way Liu's wife was.

When Li Laoer's wife heard her father-in-law coughing, she tactfully changed the subject.

"Come in, Sister Xia, what are you doing here?"

Xia Shengsheng still likes the Li family's sisters-in-law very much. They are kind-hearted, especially Li's second daughter-in-law. She has a carefree personality and speaks frankly. She is really someone worth making friends with.

"I came to see you, sister-in-law, because of something!

We just separated and the family is short of everything. We don’t even have a bucket. These past two days, my children have been carrying water in basins.

So I want to ask my sister-in-law if she has any ready-made buckets to sell me two. If she doesn’t have any, it’s still in time to make some now.”

"Hey, what do I think? You're just a sleepy guy who has fallen asleep and found a pillow.

When I got the basin for you that day, I was thinking about when my second child would be free and could get you a bucket.

It just so happens that today I have finished my work in the fields, don't you think he is still working?"

Li Er's wife pointed at the two brothers who were working. The two brothers smiled in the direction of Xia Shengsheng, did not say much, and continued with the work in their hands.

When Xia Shengsheng came over just now, she saw the two Li brothers busy at work. She thought they were doing carpentry work for others, but she didn't expect that they were making buckets for her.

The Li family could think of so much that Xia Shengsheng didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Sister-in-law, I really don't know how to thank you. In this case, I won't be polite to you, but you have to charge the right amount, otherwise I won't dare to visit you again in the future.

I also want to ask Brother Li and Brother Li to help make a bathtub for bathing. You know that our house is short of everything now, and we need to buy things bit by bit to make it feel like a home."
