The space is full of supplies, and the little milk bag can't be used up.

"I don't know either, but Third Brother has to keep it a secret for me!" Li Youran put her little hand to her mouth and made a "hush" gesture.

"Third brother will naturally keep it a secret, trust me!"

Li Heming assured that he would never tell anyone else even if he was beaten to death.

"Let's go collect herbs. There won't be any other animals around." Li Youran walked aside.

Seeing this, Li Heming did not dare to delay and hurriedly quickened his pace to catch up.

After a while, Li Youran came to a place and found a rare ginseng growing there.

This ginseng looked like it had been growing for about ten years, which was very rare. She carefully dug it out with her hands and gently put it into the bamboo basket behind Li Heming.

Then, she looked around and her eyes fell on a Polygonum multiflorum. As far as she knew, Polygonum multiflorum had the effects of nourishing qi and blood, calming the mind and moisturizing the blood.

So, she picked the Polygonum multiflorum without hesitation and put it into the bamboo basket.

So far, they had only collected two kinds of herbs, but considering that they had spent a lot of time watching the two beasts fight, Li Youran decided to give up for now. She thought: The other herbs can only be left for next time.

"Sister, are we going back now?" Li Heming couldn't help but ask when he saw Li Youran turn around and walk down the mountain.

"Well, we've wasted too long. We have to go back. And we have to rush home for lunch." Li Youran was thinking about the food at home, but was also worried that her mother would be waiting anxiously.

It is said that going up a mountain is easy but going down is difficult, but Li Youran felt it was quite easy and comfortable to go down the mountain, and did not even ask Li Heming to carry her on his back.

Li Heming followed his sister silently, always worried that she might suddenly stumble and fall.

So he remained alert at all times so that he could support her in time if necessary.

When the two of them arrived home, Li's father and his group had already arrived home.

Just wait for them to come back and prepare for dinner.

"Ran'er, where have you been? It took you so long to come back!" Father Li looked at the two people who had just arrived home anxiously, his eyes full of worry.

"Dad, we're going to the mountains to collect herbs. Tomorrow we'll take them to the herb shop in town to sell them for some money." Li Youran pointed at the herbs on Li Heming's back. His voice was a little low, his eyes flickered, and he seemed a little guilty.

Father Li looked in the direction of his daughter's finger, then shifted his gaze back to Li Youran. His expression became very solemn: "Herbs usually grow deep in the mountains. Did you go into the mountains?"

Facing his father's questioning, Li Youran did not dare to hide anything and replied in a low voice, "Yes, Dad."

"Nonsense! Who told you to run into the mountains? Do you know how dangerous it is there?" Father Li was furious. His originally gentle tone suddenly became harsh. As he spoke, he pointed at Li Heming, his eyes full of blame and anger.

Li Heming lowered his head silently without making any excuses.

He knew that he was indeed negligent this time and did not consider the possible dangers in the deep mountains.

Seeing his brother being scolded by his father, Li Youran felt filled with guilt and self-blame.

She knew that she shouldn't have so stubbornly asked to go to the mountains to collect herbs, but at this moment she was even more unwilling to see her brother being punished because of her.

So, she mustered up her courage, stepped forward, and said to Father Li: "Dad, don't blame my third brother. It was me... I begged my third brother to take me there, and I promise that it will never happen again. Please don't blame my third brother, blame me." As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, as if they would fall at any time.

Li Youran lowered his little head, his hands tightly clenched the corners of his clothes. He looked so aggrieved and pitiful, just like a frightened little rabbit, which made people feel pity for him.

Everyone who saw this wanted to hug him and comfort him.

Father Li looked troubled, but he could no longer be angry when he saw Li Youran. His daughter was so young, it was normal for her to be curious about the mountains, and he couldn't blame the child entirely.

"I'm sorry, Ran'er, Daddy has already said that Daddy doesn't blame Third Brother anymore. Come, sit with Daddy." Father Li softly picked up the little boy and sat him on the seat.

It's heavy! But I can still hold it.

Li Youran hid in his father's arms with a wronged look on his face, and his little eyes looked so cute.

Seeing this, Ye didn't say much. Her husband was teaching the children, and the children had to be punished if they did something wrong, but her daughter was still young and didn't understand, so it was inevitable.

Zhang and Li Yanqiang also wanted to hug Li Youran, but when they saw Li Youran hiding in Li's father's arms, they gave up.

Li Kangze and Li Heming felt bad when they saw their sister looking aggrieved.

The one who felt the worst was Li Heming. It was he who took his sister to the mountains, but his sister had to bear the blame alone, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Daddy, it's my fault. My sister is still so young, she definitely wouldn't dare to go alone. I was the one who took her there. Daddy, please punish me!" Li Heming lowered his head and admitted his mistake, saying very sincerely.

"It's all over. Next time you go, make sure you ask an adult to come with you. OK?" Father Li said to Li Heming, and also to Li Youran.

Li Heming nodded, put down the backpack and sat on the chair.

Zhang and Ye brought up the dishes, many of them, including the spare ribs that Li Youran loved.

Li Youran smelled the fragrance, sniffed it with her little nose, jumped down from Li's father's arms with a hum, and sat on her own chair.

Ye served her a bowl of rice and placed it in front of her. Li Youran couldn't wait to eat a mouthful of rice and said to Father Li beside her, "Daddy, spare ribs!"

Li Youran's saliva was about to flow out, and his eyes were fixed on the large ribs in front of him.

Father Li looked at the greedy Li Youran and sighed in his heart: This child, who was so aggrieved just now, can't even walk when he sees the ribs.

After Li's father picked up a piece of pork ribs and put it into Li Youran's bowl, Li Youran began to eat, completely forgetting what had just happened.

Li Heming couldn't help but laugh when he saw it. His sister was so cute, it seemed that only meat could coax her.

Li Kangze also smiled as he watched his sister eat, and picked up a piece of meat for himself.

Under Li Youran's influence, everyone's appetite was aroused and they ate a lot of food and were all full.

After eating, Li Youran went down to the field and took some wild grass to feed the wild rabbits. The wild rabbits had given birth again. Now there were so many rabbits that she couldn't count them. She felt like eating braised rabbit meat.

I think of the delicious roast chicken and barbecue again!

Speaking of barbecue, Li Youran thought about opening a barbecue restaurant in the future so that he could get up and eat when he was hungry late at night.

After dinner, Li's father and Li Yanqiang went to Cai Songhua's house. Cai Songhua was weaving a basket at home. When she saw the two of them, she greeted them warmly: "Come in, is it Yanqiang and Yanhong?"

Father Li smiled and nodded.

"Don't be so polite. We are here to talk to you about something." Li Yanqiang waved his hand to directly reject Cai Songhua's kindness and explained his purpose.

"What's the matter? Just say it directly. We are all villagers and we will see each other sooner or later." Cai Songhua muttered to himself, could it be that there is something shameful? But his face still appeared calm and generous.

"It's like this. My third brother is planning to do some small business. Now is a good time, so he wants to prepare some bamboo tubes in advance. And the demand for these bamboo tubes is not small. Do you think it's possible?" Li Yanqiang said while observing the changes in Cai Songhua's expression, and at the same time explained the specific needs in detail.

As for the price, it is entirely decided by Cai Songhua herself.

Hearing this, Cai Songhua was stunned at first, and then she understood the other party's intention. However, she was really unsure about such a large order, so she couldn't give a quote immediately.

"Then how many bamboo tubes do you need?" Cai Songhua asked tentatively, with a hint of doubt and worry in his eyes.

At this time, Father Li, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke: "Our initial plan is to order one thousand first, and we hope to finish them all within a week." His tone was firm and decisive, and he seemed to be full of expectations for this cooperation.

Hearing this number, Cai Songhua couldn't help but gasp.

She had never received such a large order before and was a little overwhelmed for a moment.

After calming herself down a bit, she slowly said, "This number is indeed a bit too much... How about this, three cents for each bamboo tube? Also, can I see the drawings first?" There was a hint of caution in her words.

Father Li took out a piece of paper from his pocket, handed it to Cai Songhua carefully, and added: "This is the design my daughter drew herself. You can make it according to this!"
