Before they knew it, the temperature began to warm up and the snow on the mountain began to melt. Shen Jingzhou said goodbye after dinner one day.
The Su family members realized that Shen Jingzhou and the other two had been in their home for almost two months, so it was not surprising that they left.
"Girl, can you give me two cans of your chili oil? I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it in the future." Uncle Chen stroked his beard and looked at Su Weixi pitifully.
"Okay, what else do you want to eat? I'll make some for you to eat on the road." Su Weixi thought about it and decided to make some dry food for the three people to take on the road.
"Miss Su, I want to eat that cold rabbit. Can you give me two cans?" Shi Tou came over and interrupted.
"Sure, I'll ask my dad to kill a few rabbits tomorrow."
"No, no, I'll do it. Why should I trouble Uncle Su?" Shitou said this for a reason. Since they came, Shitou often helped kill the chickens, ducks and rabbits in the house.
"Then what would you like to eat, Mr. Shen? I'll make some for you." Su Weixi asked Shen Jingzhou who was watching the show on the side.
"I want some potatoes and corn. Can I have them?" Shen Jingzhou said this while looking at Su Weixi, and then he looked at Su's father who was standing beside him.
Su Weixi couldn't make the decision, after all, he was a species that had not yet appeared in this era, so he turned his eyes to Su Dad and let him decide.
"If Mr. Shen wants it, there's nothing wrong with that. But these potatoes can be thrown into the fire and roasted on the way, but these corns are not convenient to eat." Father Su said after careful consideration.
"To be honest with you, Uncle Su, I didn't bring it with me to eat on the road. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to eat it in the future, so I thought of taking it back and letting the caravan at home take a look, and then looking for it outside to see if there is any other place to buy it." Shen Jingzhou had said this, so of course Su's father would not refuse.
When Su Weixi woke up the next day, Shitou had already killed all the rabbits selected by Su's father. Su Weixi had been busy in the kitchen all day, making two large jars of chili oil, two jars of cold rabbit, and steamed some steamed buns and dumplings for the group to eat as dry food on the road.
Considering that steamed buns and dumplings cannot be kept for too long, some long-lasting naan was also baked so that the few people could heat them up and eat them on the road.
That night, at Uncle Chen's request, Su Weixi also made a hot pot. Everyone ate the meal to their satisfaction. Later, at Uncle Chen's repeated requests, Su Weixi agreed to give Uncle Chen some hot pot base to take away.
As for the source of the hot pot base, of course it is Su Weixi's own secret recipe passed down from his ancestors.
Su Weixi was too tired that day, so he fell asleep as soon as he entered the room. When he woke up, the three had left, and only Su Ma was lying on the kang, holding Xiaobai and playing with her.
"Mother, where is my father?"
"Your father was worried about them, so he went to see them off. Breakfast is in the pot, go and eat it." Su Ma threw the small ball in her hand to let Xiaobai play with it, and started to do needlework. Spring is coming soon, and she has to make some more clothes.
After Su Weixi finished breakfast, he saw that Su Ma was still busy. Thinking that the three people had already left, he went to clean the guest room. As a result, he saw things left by the three people on the kang table in the guest room.
A jade pendant was pressing down on a letter and a large stack of banknotes.
Su Weixi picked up the jade pendant and took a look. There was nothing special about the texture. It was just an ordinary jade. But there was a word "Shen" on it and a pattern on the side. Su Weixi couldn't understand what the pattern was for a moment.
After opening the letter and looking at the wording, I realized it should have been written by Shen Jingzhou.
The beginning was nothing more than thanking the Su family for rescuing several people and staying in their home for so long, expressing gratitude and leaving some silver notes as a thank you.
Later on, the use of this jade pendant was mentioned, saying that if the Su family left the mountains in the future, they could take this jade pendant to any Shen's business and contact Shen Jingzhou.
"This is the silver bill of this era, my daughter. Have you counted it? How many are there in total?" Su Ma held the silver bill in her hand and looked at it.
The original family was so poor that they could barely make ends meet, so Su Ma naturally had never seen a banknote in her memory.
"I counted them. There are one thousand taels in total. Each bill is worth one hundred taels, and there are ten bills in total." Su Weixi replied while rubbing Xiaobai.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Shen is so generous and gave so much as a thank-you fee." Mother Su smacked her lips.
"What's the thank-you fee?" Father Su asked as he lifted the door curtain and walked in.
Su's mother then told Su's father about the things left behind by Shen Jingzhou and his companions, and Su's father became even more convinced of their character.
"Dad, where did you send them?"
"It's not far. I only sent them to the top of North Mountain and pointed them in the direction." Dad Su wouldn't send them too far. The weather was getting warmer and the snow was beginning to melt. Many animals were coming out to look for food. Even if Su Wei had a rare space to take refuge, Dad Su was still worried about the mother and daughter being alone at home for too long.
After they chatted for a while, Su's father asked Su Weixi to put the jade pendant and the silver bills into the space and then went to the chicken coop to busy himself. He had to send Shen Jingzhou and others away in the morning, and he had not fed the chickens yet.
With the departure of Shen Jingzhou and the other two, the cottage returned to its previous life.
Some of the things that had been put away in the space before were taken out and used again.
It seemed as if nothing had changed, but Su Weixi still felt a little uncomfortable sometimes. At least the dinner table was much quieter, and there was no longer the quarrel between Uncle Chen and Shitou over the last piece of pork ribs.
But all good things must come to an end, and Su Weixi quickly adjusted herself to the situation. After all, the Su family and Shen Jingzhou were just strangers.
In the blink of an eye, it was spring. Su Weixi saw many small animals appearing in the valley, and the trees in the mountains began to sprout. Su's father suggested arranging spring ploughing.
But there is not much diesel left in the space, so we can’t use the tillage machine this year. The three of us can only plow the soil ourselves with hoes.
"I'm so tired, Dad. Do we have to farm? It's been such a long time, and we haven't even turned over an acre of land. My body is still in the development stage." Su Weixi said angrily as he sat at the edge of the field.
It's not that Su Weixi is lazy, but the efficiency of tilling the soil is really too low. The three members of the Su family are not farmers all year round, so they are not very good at these things. The reason why it was so smooth last year was all thanks to the cheating of the tilling machine in the space.
"Yeah, Old Su, don't even mention Xixi's small body, I can't handle it either." Mother Su walked over to Su Weixi and sat down and said.
"How about that, you two go back and have a rest, and I'll take over. We can plant less this year." Father Su advised helplessly. He also felt sorry for his wife and daughter.
"That's impossible. You don't know when you'll finish it by yourself." Su Ma stood up and muttered, "It would be great if we had a cow and a plow. It's not as good as a tiller, but it's better than what we have now."
Su Weixi jumped up from the ground when she heard this, "Mom, what did you just say?"
"Ah? He didn't say anything, just complaining about how hard it is to farm."
"No, you just said oxen and plows."
"Yeah, but we don't have cows and plows." Su's mother looked at her daughter in confusion, but Su's father next to her understood what his daughter meant.
"Come on, Mom and Dad, let's not plow the soil today. Let's go home. I have something to tell you." After saying that, Su Weixi took the lead and walked towards the cabin.
"Su Weixi, be careful with your address, call me daddy and mommy."
"Oh, I forgot about it in the excitement. Let's go, let's go home first." Su Weixi said perfunctorily.
When Shen Jingzhou and the other two were here, Su Weixi always called them Dad and Mom. She was used to it, and continued to call them that even after the three of them left, but today she was too excited and forgot about it.
