Ye Laosan's face turned red when he was treated like this by a junior. He stood up and turned away.
Ye Zhou glared at Li Wenxiu and Ye Mingxuan, and then followed the old man away.
Ye Mingxuan squinted his eyes, glanced at Ye Dazhuang and Ye Daqing who were about to leave, and said coldly:
"Don't think that since my father is not at home, we can be manipulated at will. If we want food, just give us what we want in exchange."
Ye Yutong stared at the walking backs of Ye Dazhuang and Ye Daqing and asked, "Mom, brother, do you think they will agree?"
Li Wenxiu shook his head, "Not necessarily. They still have food to eat now. They probably won't sever ties with us easily just for a few kilograms of sorghum noodles. This is far from what they want."
"Then let's reveal it and say that we parted ways with the villagers when we arrived in Jiangcheng."
Ye Yutong thought for a while and then said with a smile: "But don't say we are going to the northwest, just say we are going to Ping An's hometown."
"But two days ago we said we were going to the northwest, and now we say we're going to Ping'an's hometown? Will others believe it?" Li Wenxiu asked suspiciously.
Ye Yutong said nonchalantly: "Just say that we have changed our minds. We are going to separate soon. Do you care if they believe it or not?"
Ye Mingxuan agreed, "My sister is right. I will go find Uncle Shitou later and ask him to pass the news to the people in the old house."
After the three of them discussed it, they remembered that the two water men had not returned yet.
"Mom, let me go take a look. You and your sister are waiting here." Ye Mingxuan said and prepared to run down.
"Brother, I'll go with you." Ye Yutong followed him.
As soon as I ran to the shore, I saw that the river was dark and full of people. Everyone was silent, fishing for something.
Ye Mingxuan couldn't see whether his brother and Ping An were there? He shouted: "Peace, Mingzhe."
"Brother, come down quickly." Ye Mingzhe's voice sounded from the river.
Ye Mingxuan walked to the river and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Brother, there are fish here."
"Really, did you catch it?"
Ye Mingzhe said embarrassedly: "I didn't catch it, but I caught two safely."
This fishing operation lasted for most of an hour, and finally everyone on the shore joined in.
There are many people fishing in the river, but few actually catch fish.
Li Yunze was lucky and caught three palm-sized fish. The whole family was very happy.
Even Mao Dan and the three brothers and sisters Ye Song gathered around the basin to look at it.
Ye Yutong looked at the fish, rolled his eyes, and said in Ye Mingxuan's ear:
"Brother, go to Uncle Shitou's place and tell him about the three fishes our family caught. Also, let Uncle Shitou tell the story about our plan to go to Ping'an's hometown instead of going to the capital. "
After thinking for a while, he added: "Brother, don't forget to tell them that Ping An's hometown is from Shu."
Li Yunze's ears twitched and he glanced at his little wife. He didn't even know when his hometown became Shu territory?
But he didn't ask. This little girl is very smart, so she must have her intentions behind her words.
Ye Mingxuan smiled and nodded, got up and went to find Uncle Shitou.
Li Wenxiu was afraid that the fish would die at night, so he planned to kill it first, pickle it with salt, and cook it for the children to eat early tomorrow morning.
Ye Dazhuang heard from Shitou that when they arrived in Jiangcheng, Li Wenxiu's family was about to separate from their village and prepare to go to Shu to join her son-in-law's family.
He immediately told Ye Daqing the news. After careful consideration, the two brothers decided that they could not just take advantage of Li Wenxiu's family.
If their family goes to Shu, the mountains will be high and the roads will be far away, and they might not have the chance to meet each other in their lifetime? Who will they ask to show their respect at that time?
It's best to get her family's grain and carts over while they're still separated.
Didn't their family also catch three fish? I'll go there early tomorrow morning to replenish my parents' health, and I can also have a sip of fish soup to satisfy my cravings.
While sleeping, under the cover of Li Wenxiu, Ye Yutong entered the space again.
I will be separated from the people in Yejia Village in two days. I don’t know if there will be a chance to meet again in the future.
Thinking about the one tael of silver that Uncle Shitou gave her, and the food that the grandma asked her grandson to send her. She was ready to return this favor before leaving.
She went to the basement and brought up a bag of rye flour. This flour was produced in space and was ground very finely. It looked dark, but had a strong wheat aroma.
Ye Yutong was going to fry some fried noodles and give them to Da Po and Uncle Shitou when they parted.
She didn't dare to use all rye flour. Although this flour looked dark, it was also a fine grain and tasted similar to white flour.
She thought about it and added some sorghum noodles and brown rice flour. This way it tasted slightly different, but it still warded off hunger.
She was originally going to add some corn flour, but there was no corn in this dynasty. She was afraid that she would not be able to explain it, so she did not add it.
Fried noodles can be eaten dry or made into a paste with water. It is very convenient to carry on the road, and it is easy to store. It will not go bad after a month or two.
She had fried a lot of them before fleeing the famine and hadn't eaten much yet, but they were all fried with white flour and it was difficult to give them away.
I fried four pots in a big iron pot, weighing about thirty kilograms.
She first brewed a bowl with boiling water and tasted it. It had a strong wheat aroma and added some sugar. It tasted fragrant and smooth, like sesame paste.
She found two cloth bags and put about ten kilograms in each bag. When the time came, she would give one bag to Grandma and one bag to Uncle Shitou.
Although they are not separated, the brothers are all together, so it is better to give them separately.
It is up to Uncle Shitou whether he wants to take it out to eat with his brothers, but this bag was given to Uncle Shitou by his family.
She found two smaller bags, each containing four or five kilograms of fried noodles, which were prepared for the homes of her father's two other brothers.
Since her father went to join the army, the two of them have been helping out a lot in the village. We probably won’t see each other again in the future, so I’ll just leave you with my thoughts.
There was some left over in the end, and she planned to keep it for herself to eat. I won’t go with the villagers anymore. Without so many acquaintances staring at them, their family can eat better.
It had been an hour since she had packed these things up, probably because she had slept for a long time this afternoon. Now she was not sleepy, so she took the basket and went to the mountain.
I picked up eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs, and then took a look at the two pigs. The sow's belly is getting bigger and bigger.
Ye Yutong felt that it was about to give birth to a baby, so he would have to come in frequently in the past few days to see it.
She poured some corn kernels into the pig trough, which was enough for two pigs to eat for a day.
This pigsty is very large, with a meter-high wall that she built with bricks before she crossed over.
The pig pen is full of green grass. I usually feed the two pigs some corn kernels and water and don't need to worry about it.
In the past, the endless fruits and vegetables produced in the fields were used to feed pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese.
After feeding the pigs with grain, I took corn kernels and beans to feed the cows, where the two cows were grazing leisurely.
The cow's belly was getting bigger and bigger, so Ye Yutong helped smooth its fur.
Unexpectedly, the bull was unhappy and nudged her gently with his head, and mooed in protest.
This move made Ye Yutong amused. Could it be that Niu also knew how to be jealous? But she is also a woman, okay?
