Chapter 64 The Seven Brothers Are Not Fuel-Efficient
Chapter 64 Seven brothers, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps
This dog is a stray dog at the entrance of the village. It is a white female dog with a big belly. It looks like she is about to give birth. Yesterday, she reluctantly cooked mushroom soup with a little meat and brought it in. At this time, it Lying on the ground motionless.
Shi Huanhuan frowned, could it be really poisonous? This dog was poisoned to death?
Just as she was about to step forward to check the situation, the bitch suddenly stood up and bared her teeth at her. Shi Huanhuan screamed in fright and fell to the side. The bitch took this opportunity to run out.
Shi Huanhuan patted her chest in fear. She almost thought that the beast was going to bite her, but then she turned happy: "Those mushrooms are not poisonous, and the dog is still alive and well."
"Huanhuan, what are you calling for?"
A rough voice sounded, it was Shi Huanhuan's father, named Shi Youfu.
"You lazy girl, hurry up and make money by embroidering handkerchiefs when you have this time. Your brother will soon have to be repaired again."
Shi Huanhuan's face darkened and he responded: "I understand."
She hid in the woodshed, and soon Aunt Shi's voice sounded: "Master, aren't the Lu family repairing the house? You should also go and help. I still have fifteen cents."
Shi Youfu's voice became louder: "If you don't go, I will be exhausted for only fifteen cents. If I hunt and sell a rabbit, it will cost more than that."
Aunt Shi's voice became softer: "Okay, okay, when will you go to the mountains?"
Shi Youfu walked away, and a voice came: "If I don't go in the near future, won't Huanhuan make money? I won't go out until the end of October, and now I have to go to bed."
Until the sound of closing the door came, Shi Huanhuan's face could only be described as gloomy. Aunt Shi opened the door and walked in. She saw that the dog in the room was gone, so she hurried to help Shi Huanhuan: "The dog ran away?"
Shi Huanhuan responded softly: "Well, Mom, what will we do with our winter rations if dad doesn't go out to work?"
Aunt Shi was helpless, Shi Youfu was too lazy to cook, and she couldn't shout. What if she got tired of shouting and got beaten, so she sighed: "Didn't your father say that? I will go hunting at the end of October. Besides, now I only eat. We pay from the government, and with your second and third uncles here, we won’t be hungry."
"My brother's repairs are not done by the government, so I can bear them all by myself."
Aunt Shi had no choice but to say helplessly: "You are the only one in our big room who is more promising."
Shi Huanhuan took a deep breath and thought, forget it, she won't be able to stay in this house for much longer anyway.
So he said to Aunt Shi, "Mom, that thing is not poisonous."
Aunt Shi's eyes lit up: "Then we can sell it?"
Shi Huanhuan nodded: "I heard from Uncle Zhou that An Shuyao is doing business with Zuixian Pavilion. Let's send the hospitality and raise the price. We will keep the money hidden until the time comes and don't let grandpa and grandma know about it."
Aunt Shi naturally had no objection. Shi Huanhuan went to carry the basket: "I'll pick some more and take them to the county in the morning."
Aunt Shi also rushed out: "I'll go with you."
This time the mother and daughter bypassed An Shuyao's house and went up the mountain.
There is smoke from cooking outside the thatched house, and the advantage of setting up the stove outside is that the inside of the house is no longer polluted by oil.
An Shuyao was kneading dough outside. She looked at another stove and thought about buying a big pot when she went to the county to deliver chicken fungi tomorrow.
The noodles are made of broth, with braised pork, green vegetables, chives, and a poached egg for each person. The broth blends well with the noodles, and is garnished with green onions.
The breakfast can be said to be very rich.
In the small room, An Yunrui covered his injury and walked out holding An Hao, who had just woken up.
An Shuyao looked over and put down the bowl in his hand: "Fourth brother, your injury is not healed yet. Why are you moving? Go back and lie down."
An Yunrui shook his head: "It's okay. The wound I used your medicine yesterday has healed much better. As long as I don't make any big movements, it won't break. I can stand up and walk around without touching the wound."
An Shuyao was also surprised by An Yunrui's healing ability. Her medicine for injuries was indeed top-notch, but recovery had to be a step-by-step process. How could someone like him, who was half-dead yesterday, be fully alive today?
However, An Yunrui has been very strong since he was born. He was able to beat an adult until he screamed when he was only a few years old. It is not surprising that his healing power is amazing.
None of her original brothers were fuel-efficient.
Putting aside the distracting thoughts, she carried the bowl in and said, "There is hot water in the pot. After washing up, come in and eat some noodles."
The sound floating in the air made his stomach growl. Everyone in the family never got tired of An Shuyao's cooking. When she was still young, she showed amazing cooking skills.
But since she was picked up by a wandering Taoist priest when she was ten years old, she didn't like cooking when she came back. Even the taste of the food was greatly reduced. They just treated her as having a baby, not worrying that she would be unhappy.
People bring this up again.
Who would have imagined that after being exiled to Anzhou, his sister's excellent cooking skills would come back.
Liu Yuxue walked up to him. When she saw him standing there in a daze, she raised her hand and waved in front of him: "Why are you so stunned? Now, let me give you a dry towel to wash your face."
Liu Yuxue handed him a dry towel and a willow branch for mouthwash, and then returned to the house.
An Yunrui bent down slightly, carrying a pot and pouring hot water into the copper basin. He first washed An Hao, then asked him to rinse his mouth with salt water, and then began to clean himself up.
He really dislikes the way he smells now. The problem is that he can't take a shower because he's injured.
An Yunrui walked in, picked up his bowl and started eating, while An Hao swung his calves with a look of enjoyment on his face.
"Girl Yao, can we come in?"
Lin Hui's voice came from outside. An Shuyao took a sip of soup before putting down the bowl and walked out quickly.
The workers who were building houses outside came, and An Shuyao went to open the courtyard door: "Everyone, come in."
"Uncle Lin, in addition to building a firewood shed today, we also need to build a separate bathing area. Let's build it next to the firewood shed. Just build it at the back."
"Okay, no problem."
Ten workers started working again, and Lu Jin was watching at home, so she wanted to go to the mountain to collect gallinaceous fungi. She collected it several times, but almost all the mushrooms on the mountain were gone. This can be cultivated artificially, but the process is a bit troublesome.
For the time being, An Shuyao just wants to sell the ones on the mountain and then do other things to make money.
After Shi Huanhuan picked all the mushrooms on the mountain, including those in deep places, he brought Aunt Shi down from the mountain openly.
They picked as many as two large baskets, weighing more than thirty kilograms in total. She didn't let go of any mushrooms that were similar to those in her memory.
Moreover, she would not leave anything extra to An Shuyao. This was what they discovered and should belong to them.
As soon as she thought that this basket would be sold at a good price, she was so excited that she walked like a breeze.
