Chapter 9

Chapter 9: Going into the mountains is rewarding

In ancient times, people were not allowed to discuss the royal family at will, and ordinary families would not talk about it.

It seems that if she wants to know, it will have to be at least a few years later.

However, this place can grow rice and corn. The staple food should be these. Rice and corn are the main food. It should be in the south, modern Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Chongqing. The staple food is rice and corn. In ancient times, they were called Jinguan and Yizhou.

, Furong City.

She knew this when she grew up.

Now seeing that Mrs. Zhao is eating so deliciously, Su Xiaolu also feels hungry.

Zhao's energy is much better than yesterday. Although she is still very thin, her complexion has improved.

Su Sanlang came in to collect the bowls and was happy to see them. He said with a smile: "When the medicine is hot, Sanmei will bring it to you to drink. I will take Brother Chong and Brother Hua to the mountains to cut some firewood. In a few days,

I'll go to town tomorrow and ask if those wealthy families want to buy firewood, and then I'll cut the firewood and sell it."

Su Sanlang said it very carefully, because he hoped that Mr. Zhao would not worry about his livelihood. When he was free, he was young and strong, and he would find a way to feed his family.

How could Ms. Zhao not understand? She smiled and nodded: "Daddy, then bring some rice balls and pay attention to safety."

Su Xiaolu looked at Su Sanlang and smiled at him: "Ah oh..."

Use this to say hello to Su Sanlang.

Su Sanlang's eyebrows were smiling and gentle. He looked at Su Xiaolu tenderly and said, "Fourth sister is so good, so good. Daddy will come back to see you when he is done with his work."

There was no time to delay. After Su Sanlang explained to Su Sanmei, he took Su Chong and Su Hua into the mountain.

Because it is backed by mountains, although it is remote, it is still convenient.

At this time, everyone in the village was busy with the autumn harvest. It was too late to harvest their own food, so they had no time to go into the mountains.

In other words, Su Sanlang was kicked out by his parents, so he had time to go into the mountains without having to do farm work.

After Su Sanlang left, Su Sanmei obediently heated up the medicine and gave it to Mrs. Zhao to drink.

He also helped Zhao change Su Xiaolu’s diaper.

Su Xiaolu only cries when she poops. When peeing, she cries only after peeing three times.

She peed three times, which is what she could tolerate. Babies don't pee much. If the diaper is too wet, it will be uncomfortable. If you cover it, you may get rashes and sore your bottom.

Three times is about the same. Replacing it in time will allow Zhao to rest at ease and she won't have to worry about a rotten butt.

After eating a full meal, Su Xiaolu went to sleep.

Eating more and sleeping more is her current goal of survival.

Su Sanmei was not idle either. She dug earthworms in the yard and fed them to the two chickens at home. At noon, she also gave Zhao a hot meal.

With the nourishment of the spiritual spring water, Mrs. Zhao can get out of bed on her own today.

She wanted to clean up the house, but when she wanted to go out, Su Xiaolu cried.

Mr. Zhao is weak, so how can he work at this time? Overwork is the first cause of early death.

Su Xiaolu cried heartbreakingly, and Ms. Zhao had no choice but to go back to bed to comfort her. After repeated attempts several times, she noticed the tears on Su Xiaolu’s face. Ms. Zhao softened her heart, wiped her tears and sighed: “Fourth sister,

Are you afraid that mother is not around? Don't be afraid, mother is here."

Su Xiaolu flat-mouthed: "Wow woo woo..."

My health is not good, no matter what kind of work I do, this month is not enough.

She knew with the hair on her head that her mean grandma was so mean that she would not have allowed Mrs. Zhao to have confinement in the past few times.

Therefore, Zhao's physical condition is very poor. Even if he is nourished by the spiritual spring water in the past two days, it will only nourish his energy temporarily and nourish his body, which is a long-term thing.

She didn't even need to diagnose Zhao's pulse because she knew that Zhao was in terrible health.

So whenever Mrs. Zhao dares to work, she will cry.

Mrs. Zhao sighed, coaxed Su Xiaolu to fall asleep, and called Su Sanmei in and told her: "Third sister, you come and sleep with fourth sister, and mother will clean up the house."

If you can't do heavy work, at least clean up the old well. This way, Su Sanlang will have clean water to drink when he comes back from a tiring day, and he won't have to walk a long way to fetch water.

Su Sanmei obediently took Zhao's place and lay down.

Mrs. Zhao stood up and prepared to go out.

Su Xiaolu flattened his mouth: "Ah wow - ugh..."

Su Sanmei hurriedly coaxed: "Fourth sister, don't cry, don't cry. My sister is here. Fourth sister, be good..."

Su Xiaolu: Don’t listen, don’t listen, the bastard is chanting sutras.

It's okay for her to cry anyway.

The loud and heart-wrenching cries made Zhao's heart almost clench together. She had to give up the idea of ​​going out to clean up and quickly returned to bed.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuancy..."

It's not easy being a baby.

Mrs. Zhao watched Su Xiaolu stop crying and sighed. After doing this several times, she gradually understood that this little girl recognized someone.

Mrs. Zhao came to accompany Su Xiaolu, and Su Sanmei went out to catch bugs again.

In the afternoon, Su Sanlang came back with Su Chong and Su Hua, carrying several kilograms of wild chestnuts.

Su Chong and Su Hua immediately called Su Sanmei.

"Third sister, third sister, come quickly, brother will give you this to eat."

Su Chong cherished two chestnuts and gave them to Su Sanmei. He was worried that Su Sanmei wouldn't be able to bite them open, so he bit them open and handed them over to her with saliva on them.

Su Sanmei didn't mind it either, so she took it and wiped it before peeling the pulp and eating it.

The three of them squatted in the yard of their home and ate happily.

Su Sanlang entered the house, smiled and said to Mrs. Zhao: "My dear mother, do you think I am lucky? Brother Chong, Brother Hua and I went into the mountains and found that this wild chestnut tree must not be able to be beaten in previous years.

Yes, it happens to be the autumn harvest now, so our family can take care of everything on this tree.

"I didn't bring a backpack today, so I roughly weighed four or five kilograms and came back. I estimate that I can still weigh more than ten kilograms on the tree."

Su Sanlang was very happy. He was lucky. After entering the mountain and setting up a few traps, he came across this wild hairy chestnut tree. It happened to be a mature time. In the past, when the autumn harvest was over and before it snowed, the villagers would also go into the mountain.

Chopping firewood or something.

Anyone who encounters these wild chestnuts must shoot them. This year, everyone is harvesting in the autumn, and he encountered them first, so they belong to his family.

Mrs. Zhao was also happy, but she still told her gently: "Dad, you must be careful. It doesn't matter if the tree is tall, but you must pay attention to safety."

Su Sanlang smiled and nodded: "I know. I'll go and get them all tomorrow. I'll keep some to eat and some to sell."

When the family was separated, their parents didn't give them a penny, so they had to prepare their own winter clothes this winter.

Wild hairy chestnuts are considered a rarity, so pick them out, keep the bad ones for yourself and sell the good ones.

Ms. Zhao nodded: "Okay."

This good news made the whole family very happy. Ms. Zhao was in a good mood. She always felt that God was caring for her family.

Su Sanlang looked at the wide-eyed Su Xiaolu and asked, "Is Fourth Sister good today?"

Su Xiaolu suddenly became speechless, feeling aggrieved when he saw Su Sanlang: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

He hummed a few times in grievance, looked at Zhao again, and then looked at Su Sanlang.

She was complaining silently.
