"First prepare some warm dry grass and the like, cover it next to the bamboo house, and then buy a layer of oilcloth to wrap it up to see if it can survive. In addition, I will go to the mountain tomorrow to look for a suitable cave and put some food there.
, just in case of emergencies!" Liu Xingzhi also knew that it was impossible to build a house now, but he always had to be prepared for a rainy day.
"Today all the quilts were sold, some were exchanged for money, some were exchanged for grain, and some did not have enough money. The third brother asked them to come over and pay off the debt with work. After all, we are going to dig protective canals and clean up the wasteland.
, they all need people!" Xu Dashu was afraid that the money was wrong and his third brother and sister-in-law would quarrel again, so he hurriedly picked up the matter.
Yun Xi didn't mind too much. Those quilts were inside. It wasn't selling to anyone. She could make more or less. Anyway, it was a business without capital, so she didn't lose anything!
"We will go hunting later, so don't go! Ask your senior brother to get more quilts!" Liu Xingzhi sighed: "Although we are not rich, at least we have enough food, clothing, and quilts to cover us.
There are cotton-padded clothes to wear. There are also many people whose families only have one set of cotton-padded jackets, and only those who go out can wear them. If there is a snowstorm, I don’t know how long these people can survive!" He is not a great person, but he just thinks that he can
Living a new life is a gift from God. If it can help others, that would be the best.
Similarly, the space in Yunxi is also a gift from God, so they try to do as many good things as possible within their capabilities, which is good for both of them!
Yun Xi nodded, thinking about whether to go to the mountains to dig up some cold-repelling herbs, so that when the snowstorm comes, it can help everyone.
Different from the two of them, several others think that exchanging things is a good business. Take pork as an example. A pig of three hundred kilograms usually costs three taels of silver. Excluding internal organs and the like, the pure meat must weigh two hundred kilograms.
Now, the pork in the market has been sold for twenty cents per catty. You can make one or two taels just by selling pork. If you add in things like sewerage, you can still make one or two taels.
In addition to the quilts sold today, the few pigs harvested can earn several taels. There are also grains and other items later, which can also earn a fortune. Even if they do not follow the market price increase, they can still make a lot of money.
The third brother said that after excluding the capital, the rest will be shared equally with them. When I thought about it, I immediately felt like I was going to make a fortune!
After the few people had eaten, they packed up their bows and arrows and prepared to go hunting. Liu Xingzhi and Liu Sanye talked about the pigs and grain they had received, as well as the situation of coming to help with the work. After making an agreement, they took the people up the mountain.
Yun Xi continued to make steamed buns and made a lot of them in the morning. However, at noon, these people all had big appetites, so this meal was almost reduced by one-third. They had to go there for several days before the end of the year, and they still needed to prepare a lot.
.
Perhaps because of Dabao's instructions, Da Ya and Xiao Ya came over not long after. After arriving, they did not need to be greeted by Yun Xi, washed their hands, and went to make buns.
Mrs. Ye rarely took care of her children before. Mrs. Liu was afraid that her eldest son and his family would have no food to eat, so she took Da Ya to do things. After going back and forth, Da Ya knew how to do simple housework, including making a bun or a dumpling!
Yun Xi thought about it for a moment. When she was eleven years old, she must have been in the fifth grade. Apart from instant noodles, she knew nothing else. Compared with Da Ya, she was simply too disabled!
"Don't be in a hurry, let's eat two buns first!" Yunxi stuffed two sesame buns for them. This time the buns were mainly for Liu Xingzhi. There was relatively more sugar in them, and after one bite, they were filled with sugar.
The sugar water flows out. Yunxi doesn't like it so greasy, but looking at the boys at noon and Da Ya and the two of them, I think they like the sweetness very much.
"Third Aunt, it's so delicious!" Xiaoya smiled sweetly and sat aside obediently, watching Yunxi's busy work. "Third Aunt, can I give two to my dad to try later?"
"Of course!" Yun Xi kept busy. She planned to steam two hundred of them today, which would be enough for Liu Xingzhi and the others to eat for a few days. Giving a few away would have no impact.
"Third Aunt, you are so kind! My mother keeps saying bad things about you, but my sister and I don't believe it!" Xiaoya licked the sesame-filled sugar water and whispered: "I heard from mother that grandpa is also here.
My aunt became a rich wife, and she even said she wanted to take my mother over!"
"Your aunt?" Yunxi didn't know much about Ye, and most of them heard from Xu.
"Well, my mother is the third child, and she has two aunts!" Da Ya said clearly: "Those two aunts are beautiful, but they were sold to me by my grandfather a long time ago. I don't know how I met them this time.
.This aunt is now married to a Qianhu, but she is not a real wife, just a concubine, but I heard she is very favored!"
Yun Xi blinked, no wonder Ye became so arrogant, it was because he found a backer!
"After my grandpa separated from us, he was rescued by my aunt, and he has been living with her since then. A few days ago, my mother went out on the street and met him, and we recognized him! I heard that my aunt was very good to them and even had people beating her.
I’m a member of Ouyang Bo’s family!” Da Ya seemed to be telling someone else’s story, not at all happy to hear that her relatives had arrived.
"Third aunt, my mother also said that she would take us away together. She also said that if my father stops us, she will ask my uncle to send troops to capture my father!" Xiaoya's eyes were red, and her mouth curled up and she said: "Sister said not to tell dad.
, I don’t want dad to worry, but we don’t want to be separated from dad!”
"Don't be sad, I'll ask your third uncle to inquire first tomorrow!" Yunxi was not too nervous. Although he was a member of a thousand households, his official position was not bad, but it was not very high. Thinking about the two jade pendants in the space, he suddenly felt
I feel a little more confident.
"Thank you, Third Aunt!" Da Ya smiled sheepishly: "Although my mother said no one can stop it, I feel that if anyone can stop it, it must be Third Uncle and Three Auntie!"
Yunxi guessed that Daya told her specifically, but she didn't feel disgusted in her heart. As the third uncle and the third aunt, even if they don't know now, they still have to help if they find out in the future. She doesn't think it's a harmless little plot.
wrong.
"Third Aunt, Xiaobao will be here soon, and the two of us can help you light the fire!" Xiaoya burped with satisfaction after finishing a sesame bun, and said enviously: "Does the eldest brother have to follow Third Uncle? It must be
I think Third Aunt’s food is delicious. If I were older, I would come over and help!” After saying that, he even clenched his fists!
Yun Xi was amused by her action and gave them two bamboo cups. Inside were her stewed red dates, white fungus and peach gum soup, which was good for both adults and children.
The fillings for the steamed buns were all ready, all she needed to do was wrap them. With Daya helping her, Yunxi began to prepare the fillings for the steamed buns.
