Sisters in the Deep Forest Valley: Many Fun Things

Tuanyuan and Ankang were very anxious because only Sister Peach could go out to play.

The two sisters were biting and tugging at each other's trouser legs: We want to go too!

Sigh, they're all so... cowardly. But when it came to chasing each other, no one was left behind.

Fortunately, Peach ate and drank well every day in the valley and even ran around the mountains with us.

With its strong limbs and muscular body, it can now pull 800 pounds without any problem.

The black bear weighs at most 300 jin (150 catties), and with them, it weighs about 500 jin (250 kg).

Including the weight of the carriage, it weighs approximately 600 kilograms.

Adding a few more little ones wouldn't be a problem.

Lin Chunyi squatted down, patted Tuanyuan and Ankang's heads, and said:

"You can go, but don't shout! Don't run around! If someone steals you and you end up in the pot..."

They stared at Lin Chunyi quietly, without making a sound.

Okay, then let's all go!

Since I'm keeping them as pets anyway, I'll just take them with me wherever I go, so I won't have to worry.

I waved them off to go home and sleep.

Lin Chunyi and Lin Lanshan returned to their bedroom and began discussing where to sell the black bear for the highest price.

"Sister, a whole black bear would be worth at least four hundred taels of silver. Its fur, gall bladder, and paws are all very valuable."

Although this one is slightly damaged... it should still sell for over three hundred taels, right?

Lin Chunyi pondered:

"Let me think... In novels, the hunters always seem to knock on the back doors of wealthy landowners, and they pay really high prices. Shall we go and ask around tomorrow?"

"I think it's a good idea, let's do it this way!"

The two sisters quickly packed their things for tomorrow and soon fell asleep.

At the end of the hour of Chou (1-3 AM), the two sisters got up. They washed up and then opened the door to Peach's house.

They're all still sound asleep in their own little nests, completely unaware that they've been robbed.

Lin Lanshan placed Tuanyuan and Ankang in their respective baskets lined with hay.

Lin Chunyi woke Taozi up and fed it some food and water.

"Peach, get up and get to work."

Put a leash on it and lead it out.

Lin Lanshan did this to make room for the black bear and to lighten the burden on Taozi as much as possible.

They unloaded all the boxes, small tables, and other items from inside the carriage and then pushed it out of the storage room.

The two men lifted the black bear into the carriage, and... well, it just managed to wedge itself sideways onto the floor.

Then they comforted Peach, put on the carriage harness, and the two of them sat down in front of the carriage.

Lin Chunyi patted Taozi's back, "Taozi, walk around and see if you feel heavy?"

Peach obediently took a few steps, then let out a light cry, indicating that there was no problem at all!

That's it.

Lin Lanshan got out of the car, moved the blue brick threshold aside, and let Taozi pull the carriage out.

He moved the door back over the threshold, locked the door, and then locked the outer gate. He then boarded the train.

The two then rode in the Peach Cart (a Peach Brand mule cart) out of the valley and down the mountain...

Peach was very excited the whole way, and it ran very fast as long as the road was flat.

They descended the mountain in less than half an hour and headed towards Luoxia Town.

"Gah?" "Coo?" Why is the house so crowded when I woke up?

"Lanshan, Tuanyuan and Ankang have woken up. Go in and take a look."

Lin Lanshan, who was dozing off next to me, mumbled in her sleep:

"Ah, they're awake? I'll go in and take a look." Then he lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.

Now, most of the carriage is occupied by black bears, and Tuanyuan and Ankang can only be huddled in baskets on the wooden couch.

When Lin Lanshan went in, the little cubs were struggling to get out of the basket, making gurgling noises.

"You guys have been sleeping soundly the whole way. If you keep sleeping, we'll be in the county town by then."

After saying that, he took them out of the basket one by one and then gave them instructions:

“If you need to poop or pee, just say so. If you dare to poop in the car, I’ll just throw you out and leave.”

"Quack quack," "cluck cluck," only silly chickens and geese would do something like urinating or defecating anywhere; we're not silly.

Lin Lanshan lifted the curtain and went out to switch shifts with her sister to catch the train, while Tuanyuan and Ankang jumped from the wooden bed onto the floor.

Soft and fluffy?

When they looked down, they were almost startled again by the black "mountain".

It's that black-haired monster again! It's terrifying!

An'an and Kang Kang were a bit bolder and carefully stepped on the ground a few times.

I felt nothing under my feet except for the furry texture. So I got off the black bear and left the carriage, feeling at ease.

Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan followed behind and went out together.

Lin Chunyi had just handed the reins to her sister and was about to go into the carriage to take a nap when she saw several little brats swaggering out.

She rubbed each of their heads and said:

"If you're awake, stay here quietly and don't make a fuss in the carriage, or you might fall off."

Reunion and Ankang nestled quietly at Lin Lanshan's feet, staring at the road ahead.

More than half an hour later, they passed through Luoxia Town and were on their way to the county seat.

Lin Lanshan was intently watching the road and rushing to catch the train when she heard someone shouting from behind.

"Hey, little girl! Hey! Little girl rushing to catch the carriage ahead..."

Lin Lanshan pulled on the reins, and Taozi slowly came to a stop.

She turned her head to the side to look, and Lin Chunyi also pulled back the curtain to look behind her.

The driver of the oxcart behind looks familiar...

The oxcart slowly caught up, and the driver, somewhat surprised, shouted:

"It really is you two young ladies! Do you still remember your uncle?"

Lin Chunyi replied with a smile:

"I remember, I remember. Hello, Uncle Zhou. What a coincidence, are you going to the county town too?"

It turned out that the person driving the oxcart was Uncle Zhou, who had taken the oxcart with the two sisters when they went to the county town last time.

“I drive to the county town every day at this time. You bought your own mule cart? How is it? You can drive it by yourself, right?”

"No problem, the mule we bought is very well-behaved, making driving the cart much easier."

Peach hummed twice.

Uncle Zhou looked surprised. "Did this mule understand that it was being praised? It's so smart!"

……

The two sisters exchanged a few pleasantries with Uncle Zhou, then said they had urgent business in the county town.

"Then be careful on your journey and hurry on your way. My oxcart is slow, so I won't travel with you."

The two sisters waved goodbye, "We're off now, Uncle Zhou, goodbye!"

"Goodbye, goodbye." Uncle Zhou watched the two sisters drive the mule cart away quickly.

Some sighed:

"Those two girls are truly remarkable..."

"Brother Zhou, do you know these two girls? I've never seen them before. Their parents are at ease knowing they're going to the county town by themselves, aren't they?"

Two women in their forties and an old man with a child were sitting on the cart.

The one who asked the question was one of the women.

Uncle Zhou slowly drove the oxcart along:

"Sister Yang, those two young girls, don't let their young age fool you, they're incredibly capable."

Their parents are gone, and the two sisters have always relied on each other, earning money by hunting in the mountains. I even saw their bow and arrows last time; that bow must have been four feet long.”

The people on the cart were all surprised, while another woman began to have some thoughts.
