The space boss's daily life of raising cubs, loving husbands and farming
Chapter 7 Who are you planning to rob?
Shang Wan stopped sharpening the axe and looked up at the stone. "Did you see anyone?"
"The people from the yamen said that the young master is a serious criminal and they won't let us in to visit him." Shitou drank three bowls of water in a row before he felt the burning in his throat subside. He sat on the stool opposite Shang Wan and looked at her again and again, hesitant to speak.
"Just say it if you have something to say." Shang Wan lowered his head and continued sharpening the axe.
Shitou pursed his lips, rubbed his fingers back and forth for a long time, and said hesitantly: "Young Madam, I was wrong before, please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me."
He fished out fourteen copper coins from his pocket and said, "I carried rice for a day at the rice shop, and the shopkeeper paid me fifteen coins. I was too hungry to carry rice, so I spent one coin to buy steamed buns. The rest of the money is here."
"Please keep it. I will go to the rice shop to move some rice tomorrow. I will make sure you, the young lady, and Xiaohuan won't go hungry while I am here."
Shitou passed the coin forward.
Shang Wan didn't answer, but looked up at him, "Do you need help from me?"
"Yes." Shitou coughed uncomfortably twice. "Madam, you are a very capable person. For the sake of our past friendship, please think of a way to save the young master. I will listen to you from now on. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west."
Shang Wan raised an eyebrow, "What if I asked you to kill people and set fire to things?"
"Murder and arson?" Shitou was so shocked that his voice rose a degree.
Wow, the young lady is really cruel. Who does she want him to kill or burn?
Could it be that he was the despicable villain who wrote sour poems to the young lady and instigated her to have an affair?
Thinking of his young master who was still suffering in prison, Shitou gritted his teeth, clenched his fists and said, "As long as I can save the young master, even if it means murder or arson, I...I will do it!"
Wow, quite loyal.
Shang Wan took the copper coin and handed him the half-sharpened axe, "Keep sharpening."
"Young Madam, do you agree?" Shitou held the axe in a daze.
Shang Wan didn't comment, picked up Yuanyuan and went into the kitchen.
Shitou wanted to chase in and ask, but when he thought of Shang Wan's order, he hesitated for a moment, then suppressed his anger and sat down beside the grindstone, concentrating on sharpening the axe.
Shang Wan saw it through the window and felt somewhat satisfied.
Sure enough, he is obedient.
When dinner was served, there was steamed fish, braised chicken with green onions, braised rabbit meat, stir-fried Chinese cabbage, egg drop soup, and fragrant rice. It was a very sumptuous meal.
The fragrance wafted into Shi Tou's nose, and his empty stomach suddenly rumbled.
Apart from breakfast, he only ate one steamed bun today and was already starving.
He couldn't help swallowing and looked up at Xiao Huan, "Where did these things come from?"
"The young lady caught them all in the mountains." Xiaohuan had already gotten over her surprise and her tone was very calm.
Shitou suddenly felt pain on his face.
He worked hard all day carrying rice, but it was not worth the young lady's trip into the mountain.
Xiaohuan prepared chicken and egg porridge specifically for Yuanyuan.
Use a kitchen knife to chop the chicken into minced meat and cook it until it is soft. The egg is tender. Add a little salt when serving, drizzle with some freshly boiled chicken oil, and sprinkle with some finely chopped green onions. It will have a good color, aroma and taste.
But little Yuanyuan was particularly uncooperative today. Even when the spoon was brought to his mouth, he just closed his little mouth and refused to open it.
Xiao Huan coaxed her softly. Yuan Yuan turned her head away, her big black eyes staring at Shang Wan eagerly, and two words came out of her little mouth, "Mom, food."
Obviously she wanted Shang Wan to feed her.
"Let me do it." Shang Wan was happy to pamper her own child. She took the small porcelain bowl from Xiaohuan, scooped up half a spoonful of porridge and handed it to her. Yuanyuan immediately smiled with her eyes curved, opened her mouth and ate it obediently.
"Delicious!" Another word popped out of her mouth, and she clapped her chubby little hands happily.
Xiaohuan looked at her in surprise, and couldn't help feeling happy.
When she was at the Lu family, the young lady could only call her father and mother, and she could not say the other words no matter how she was taught. Even the young master could not do anything with her. It has only been a short time since she left the Lu family, but the young lady can actually say several more words. She learns really fast.
If Shang Wan knew what Xiaohuan was thinking, he would definitely be speechless.
In the apocalypse, one-year-old babies can already talk and run. They are nothing like Yuanyuan, who is still learning to walk and stumbles over her words.
She was actually quite worried about Yuanyuan's IQ, and today she secretly fed her two drops of spiritual spring water, hoping that she could make up for it the day after tomorrow.
If there really was no change at all, Shang Wan would suspect that the spiritual spring water had become ineffective.
While Xiaohuan went to the kitchen to get some soup, Shang Wan told Shitou about how Chen San and the other two had come in and bullied Xiaohuan. Shitou was so angry that he clenched his fists and was ready to go find the three to settle the score.
Shang Wan stopped him and said, "I have already beaten everyone who should be beaten. If you go and beat someone up now, it will only ruin my business. I told you this so that you won't be impulsive when you hear it from others in the future, and don't mention it in front of Xiao Huan."
"I know." Shitou responded angrily, secretly annoyed with himself for being too careless. He shouldn't have left two women and a child at home when he first arrived and knew nothing.
Fortunately, the young lady was very skilled and managed to get back in time, otherwise if Chen San had succeeded, Xiaohuan's life would have been ruined, and even if he had beaten those three scumbags to death, it would not have made up for it in the slightest.
Shang Wan looked at his head which was about to be lowered to the rice bowl, and thought that this incident could be regarded as a lesson, and they should think more carefully in the future.
She knocked on the table, and waited for Shitou to look up at her before she said, "Don't go into the city tomorrow. Just walk around the village, get to know the villagers, and learn about the situation in the village. For example, which family has a good relationship with which family, and which family is not on good terms with which family. As long as it is related to the village, especially the Lin family, write it down."
"Okay." Shitou nodded in agreement.
Shang Wan continued: "By the way, ask if there is anyone in the village who can repair a house. Our house is leaking wind and rain, and it needs to be repaired as soon as possible."
Shitou also wanted to repair the house, but, "Madam, we don't have the money."
It was easy to find someone to repair the house, but whether it was materials or labor, it would cost money. Their current net worth was only fourteen copper coins, so where would they get the money to repair the house?
Shang Wan: "It's just money. I'll have it tomorrow."
Shitou seemed to understand something. He looked around cautiously, leaned his head closer, and asked in a low voice, "Who are you going to rob? There is an axe in the cellar. I will sharpen it later and go with you tomorrow."
Shang Wan's eyes twitched, "This young man is quite conscious."
Shi Tou was just about to say something modest when Shang Wan slapped him on the head. The pain made him cover his head and gasp, staring at the person opposite him with grievance and confusion.
Why hit him?
Shang Wan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Be alert at night and keep an eye on the door. I'm going to go out for a while."
"You go out and do it..." Under Shang Wan's gaze, Shi Tou silently swallowed the second half of the sentence. Wasn't it okay for him not to ask?
As night fell, the breathing of the people around me became even, and the little kid in my arms fell asleep with his lips smacking.
Shang Wan waited for a while before carefully lifting the quilt, putting on his coat, tucked in the quilt for the two people on the kang, and walked out the door quietly.
The green figure disappeared in the misty night in a flash.
