The sun is shining brightly at noon.
It can be considered a pleasant time of day.
After you have just eaten, you can lie down and rest for a while, while the family chats casually and leisurely.
Zhao Dashan is not a person who can lie down, so he is going to start building duck sheds and chicken coops. Zhao Sanniu has chopped back enough firewood, and Zhao Sidan has picked up a lot of hay. In addition to the place where the chickens and ducks live, there are now more Make a doghouse.
Zhao Sanniu and Zhao Sidan also went up to help, and the three brothers were very busy.
At the end of noon, Zhao Youyin and Zhao Youcai came over to wash off the ice powder. With Wu Huiniang watching from the side, Cheng Wanwan planned to go for a walk in the mountains.
Having never seen the world before, she thought that one hundred taels of silver was a huge amount of money. Now that she has been to Hekou Town several times, she clearly understands that this is an era with a huge gap between the rich and the poor.
The poor spend only two taels of silver a year.
A wealthy family only has more than two taels of clothing.
She and her four sons couldn't stay here all their lives, and she wanted them to get out.
Silver is something that gives people confidence.
Cheng Wanwan carried the basket on his back and went up the mountain. After taking a few steps, Xiao Hei followed him.
Although this guy has no flesh, the hair on his body is very fluffy. It looks like a small ball, like a breast ball. He bumped into her and bit her trouser leg to act coquettishly.
Dahei whined and lured out the puppy from Aunt Wang's house next door.
In just half a day, there was a gap between the two dogs. Their puppy was in good spirits, but Aunt Wang's dog was obviously sick.
The puppy is too young, and his living environment has suddenly changed. It is normal to get sick.
Cheng Wanwan looked left and right and saw that no one was paying attention. He quickly bought a pill from the mall and stuffed it into the mouth of the puppy next door.
Think of this medicine as money to buy a dog.
The medicine is bitter and tastes bad, and the puppy resists it and wants to vomit it out.
Cheng Wanwan quickly pinched the puppy's mouth.
Seeing that Wangcai had taken the medicine, she breathed a sigh of relief. The dog probably wouldn't die of illness for the time being.
She continued walking up the hill.
There is clear spring water in a winding ditch. Walking along the ditch up the mountain, you can meet many women.
Because there is water in the fields, people in the village are not as frugal with food as before. Anyway, there will be a bumper harvest in half a month. Although the harvest is not as good as in previous years, as long as it can be harvested, it is their own food. If there is rice growing in the ground, it can They took it to the town and exchanged it for corn and black flour. I heard that food prices had soared. Although they didn't harvest much food, the corn they received in exchange should be about the same as in previous years.
Everyone is looking forward to a good harvest.
There was hope on everyone's face.
Cheng Wanwan was also in a good mood.
She was followed by a puppy. The puppy walked only a few hundred meters and couldn't walk anymore. He hugged her trouser legs and acted coquettishly.
Cheng Wanwan had no choice but to pick up the little guy and hold him in his arms.
When we reached the end of the ditch, standing on a higher stone, we could see the villagers of Osmanthus Village digging ditches halfway up the mountain.
At this rate, the trench should be dug this afternoon.
I don’t know what’s going on with Ergou.
Cheng Wanwan walked towards the mountains on the other side. She had never been here before.
【Ding! Discover natural wild Poria cocos. 】
Poria.
This is a commonly used medicinal material.
Poria cocos has no roots or seedlings, and it is very difficult to find wild ones. However, there are reminders from the mall that it is not difficult for her.
Cheng Wanwan glanced at the empty panel. The picture showed an open space.
She followed the prompts and walked under a big pine tree. The trees were green and blocked out the sun all year round. The soil was relatively loose. She dug lightly. The soil here was all dark brown, and the leaves and roots were all rotten in the ground. She continued Digging down, I encountered something lumpy.
Finally, three big Poria cocos were dug out, each weighing more than ten kilograms.
【Ding! Thirty-seven kilograms of natural wild Poria cocos, worth 1,480 cents, is it for sale? 】
【yes! 】
Cheng Wanwan sighed.
The whole family worked hard to wash and sell ice powder, and their daily income was only one tael of silver.
She had been digging for less than half an hour and had earned one or two and a half silver coins. With a mall, making money is fast.
She has tested it, and generally the mall will only issue an acquisition prompt when the distance is within one meter.
She stood up and continued walking into the mountains.
Dahei was already hungry, whining and biting his tail.
Cheng Wanwan had no choice but to take a break and buy milk powder from the mall to feed the little one. Dahei Gulu Gulu drank up the whole bottle of milk.
Now that I had the strength, I no longer needed Cheng Wanwan to hold her, so I walked around on my four short legs.
【Ding! Discover the natural wild aroids! 】
Cheng Wanwan didn't know Tiannanxing, but since the mall took a fancy to it, it was a good thing.
She looked up and saw that the large field of weeds over there were all aroids, and she didn't know what effect they had.
It seems that I will have to buy a book on traditional Chinese medicine. In ancient times, getting sick was a fatal thing. Knowing some basic medical knowledge may save your life.
After Cheng Wanwan picked two kilograms of aroids and sold them to the mall, he didn't see Dahei's shadow when he looked back.
"Big black!"
"Woof woof woof!"
Cheng Wanwan followed the sound and walked over.
She saw Dahei standing on the edge of a deep pit, yelling fiercely into the pit.
She bent down and looked, and saw a puppy in the pit. The puppy's hind legs were caught in a trap, and it was bleeding and whining.
This puppy is smaller than Dahei. It should be just born, six or seven days old at most.
However, how could there be a newborn dog in this deep mountain? Could it be that some family couldn’t afford to raise it and threw it in the mountains?
It just so happens that their family needs a dog to look after the house. One dog is never too few, and two dogs are never too many.
Cheng Wanwan put down his backpack, jumped down into the pit and picked up the bear trap and the puppy.
The puppy's hind legs were dripping with blood. She carefully removed the animal trap. The puppy lay on the ground completely unable to move.
She threw the bear trap back into the trap. There were several hunters in the village who made a living by hunting. This bear trap was not cheap.
She bought disinfectant from the mall, bought gauze and wrapped it in the innermost layer, then tore off a piece of fabric from herself and wrapped it around the outside. She was extremely glad that she was wearing old clothes, and she wouldn't feel bad if she tore off a piece.
The little guy whined, and the corners of his eyes were wet.
Cheng Wanwan took out the milk bottle again.
As soon as this thing was taken out, Dahei ran over happily, eager to drink milk.
"You just drank it." Cheng Wanwan put it in her backpack and put it away, "Now that you have company, don't be so domineering."
She put the puppy on her lap and nursed it carefully.
This puppy was also black. She had already guessed what Si Dan would name the puppy, so she simply picked one in advance, "I'll call you Xiao Hei from now on. One is Big Hei, and the other is Little Hei. From now on, our family will It’s up to you two to protect our chickens and ducks.”
Dahei: "Woof woof woof!"
Xiaohei: "Woooooooo..."
After treating the puppy's wound, it was getting late, and he had to filter the ice powder when he went back. Cheng Wanwan packed up and headed back home.
Her figure just disappeared on the mountain road.
A group of wild wolves walked out of the dense forest. The leader was a female wolf. It sniffed and found the trap. It licked the blood on the grass, crawled on the ground, and let out a mournful cry...
