Chapter 52: The Second-hand Trader in Superspace (8)
In 1960, Zhu Lingyun in her mud-brick house took a look at the sky outside and knew that she could no longer think wildly, because her family members who had gone out to look for wild vegetables and food to eat would all be back later.
So she immediately put aside all doubts and worries.
First he hid the shark beads that the people in the future had repeatedly warned him about, and then he also hid most of the miscellaneous grains, leaving only a small bag of cornmeal.
Prepare to wait for her mother to come back.
First show her mother the cornmeal.
As for the excuse and the source of the things, she had already thought about it. She said that Fox Great Immortal gave them to her in her dream. Seeing her intelligence, she wanted to accept her as her disciple, so she gave her some food.
No matter if your family believes it or not.
Anyway, she believed it.
Not long after she hid those things, there were clumsy footsteps outside the house, mixed with one or two sighs. Obviously, their family's harvest this time was probably still not that good.
After a while, her father, mother, and brother staggered into the house. Then they drank some well water, which made their stomach feel better, and said:
"Cook the wild vegetables mixed with wheat bran.
I’m afraid I won’t be able to survive if I just drink water.”
"I know, I'll go there later.
Why don't we look around for anything we can sell at home? The wheat bran is almost gone!"
"Where else can I sell anything at home?"
"That's all, let's look for it later!"
After the Zhu couple murmured a few words, one went to the back to cook, and the other went back to the house to look for things. About ten minutes later, Wang Caihua walked in with a bowl of very thin wild vegetable and wheat bran soup.
Hut, and then Zhu Lingyun, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly grabbed her, dragged her to the bed, pointed to the small bag of cornmeal on the bed and said:
"Mom, don't be surprised first, listen to me."
"This bag of cornmeal was neither stolen nor snatched by me. It was given to me by the Fox Fairy when I was just sleeping. She said that she thought I was smart and wanted to accept me as a disciple, but she was afraid that I would starve to death.
, so you specially sent me something. Do you think you can accept this?"
Needless to say, this is Xiao Su Lingyun testing her mother's acceptance of the excuse she made up. If she can't accept it, she may have to continue to make up for it.
"What? Fox Fairy?"
Wang Caihua was stunned at first, but then she realized that this matter must not be made public, whether it was the fox fairy or a bag of cornmeal that suddenly appeared in the house.
So he quickly fell silent.
Then she kneaded some cornmeal and found that the stuff was indeed fake, and estimated that it weighed about five kilograms. Then she quickly put the bowl aside, pulled her daughter to her side and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?
Isn’t this really something you picked up?
Is the fox fairy real or fake?"
"Mom, are you kidding me? How can I just pick up a bag of cornmeal these days? This was really given to me by the Fox Fairy. Besides, in this far and wide area, have you ever seen any company that can grind cornmeal well?
Is it so detailed?”
Xiao Zhu Lingyun at this time.
Of course, I will continue to follow my own words.
When she said this, Wang Caihua was a little shaken in her heart, because such fine cornmeal was indeed something she had never seen before. In addition, the theory of fox immortals was not uncommon here, although they had never heard of foxes.
The immortal will give you something, but you can't say for sure.
Besides, her daughter is really smart. There is no such smart girl like their daughter in the whole country.
It's reasonable to take a fancy to her daughter and want to take on a disciple.
After all, ancient masters saw clever prodigies.
I am also willing to accept him as a disciple and even subsidize him.
But there must be some differences between the Master and the Fox Fairy. After all, the Fox Fairy is not a human being, so Wang Caihua quickly asked worriedly: "Are you in danger?"
"The Fox Fairy doesn't want to take you away, does he?
Or do I want you to serve me for life?"
"Mom, don't worry. The Fox Fairy made this very clear. What she values is not my present, but my future. She will not take me away even if she accepts me as her disciple.
Mostly when I'm sleeping.
Teach me something like a dream teacher!
So there is absolutely no danger."
"Also, the fox fairy actually gave me not only this cornmeal, but also other miscellaneous grains. But I was afraid of scaring you, so I put those miscellaneous grains away. You wait a moment, I will give them to you now.
have a look!
But please don't make any noise.
We have to keep this a secret!"
Xiao Zhu Lingyun explained again, and quickly turned around and dug out the other forty kilograms of cereals that she had previously hidden. Wang Caihua, who was a little mentally prepared, was still shocked, but she did not make a sound.
, when I was about to say something.
A greeting came from outside the house:
"Caihua, why is it so slow to deliver rice?
Come out and eat quickly!”
"Xiao Yun, you put these things away first and eat the food. Wait for the details. I will discuss it with your father to see how to deal with this matter."
After saying that, Wang Caihua walked out of the hut with a slightly dazed expression. Then she suppressed her emotions and did not tell her son and husband immediately. Instead, she quietly took the wild vegetables and wheat bran in her bowl.
After swallowing with difficulty, he sent his eldest son out to fetch water and dragged his husband to his daughter's room.
What followed was undoubtedly another shock.
and discuss with each other.
Although they are still a little worried about their daughter's safety, the value of food is obviously higher at this time, and their daughter is patting her chest to ensure that she is fine.
So in the end they decided to accept it.
And the miscellaneous grains were distributed.
Among them, the particularly thin cornmeal is specially reserved for the youngest son to eat, after all, the child is young.
I really can’t eat wheat bran.
If you don't eat some refined food.
They were all afraid that the child would die young.
They are going to take some of the rest out to see if they can exchange it for some wheat bran or the like. Even if sweet potatoes and the like are considered miscellaneous grains, they are still better than wheat bran. No matter what, they can exchange one pound for two or three pounds.
Bar.
As long as we can hold on for more than one month, the next season's food harvest will be better.
Little Zhu Lingyun didn't have any objections to this, and she even mentioned it. The Fox Fairy said that she would send some more food when she found a place to store her things, and asked her parents if they could clean out the cellar where the sweet potatoes were originally stored.
And dig a little bigger, because the fox fairy said that if the hiding place is bigger, he will send more things.
After the Zhu family discussed it again, of course they decided to dig, but they couldn't dig too big. After all, they had heard the story about being greedy and losing everything, so they only planned to triple the original cellar.
, as long as they can put down 1,800 kilograms of grain, then their life will be easier.
