Blessed little peasant girl

Chapter 42

"Where did you get this silver tael? Did your father give it to you?"

The village chief didn't go to get the ingot in Jin Meiyu's hand immediately, but asked her carefully,

"No, this is the money Dahe and I earned from fishing. Someone from the village came to collect grain today, and we sold the fish to them."

As soon as he talked about fishing, the village head stood up with a swipe.

"There are fish schools again? Why don't you come to me!"

"No, we caught three fish."

"Three fish? They gave you five taels of silver?" The village chief made it clear that he didn't believe it.

Jin Meiyu smiled, handed the silver ingot to the village head, and told him.

"Of course it's more than five taels. We're lucky. The fish is a bit expensive. These are our contributions to the village."

After speaking, Jin Meiyu wanted to leave, but how could the village chief let her leave like this.

"Wait, tell me clearly, how much money did you make?"

Jin Meiyu waved her hand and walked away.

Just a joke, how could she tell the village chief about earning 75 taels of silver? If she really told the village chief, what would the village chief do if she asked for money?

The old village head called her twice again unwillingly, but Jin Meiyu ran away as if she couldn't hear her.

After Jin Meiyu came out from the village chief's house, she went to find Zhuzi, but Zhuzi went home after not seeing Jin Meiyu. When Jin Meiyu found him, he was weaving mats in the yard with his family.

Jin Meiyu didn't go in either. She was a senior and delayed their work after going in, so she recruited the pillars outside the fence.

Zhu Zi pressed the mat down with a stone, and then walked out, with doubts in his eyes.

"Sister-in-law, are you looking for me?"

Jin Meiyu nodded and talked to him.

"Zhuzi, I have something to ask for you. Look, your craftsmanship is good. I plan to buy a batch of baskets for eggs from you. I want bamboo baskets. How about a rabbit for a basket?"

This is a good thing.

Zhu Zi hastily agreed and promised.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, my family's craftsmanship is very good, and I must make it for you well."

Jin Meiyu was relieved, and left after saying this.

After Jin Meiyu left, Zhuzi's family members looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

One rabbit per basket, which is more profitable than weaving mats!
Therefore, after working on the mats in hand, the bamboo choppers went to chop bamboo, and the weaving and weaving ones, the whole family got busy.

After coming out of Zhuzi's house, Jin Meiyu planned to go up the mountain, but was stopped by Jin Mangu who had been silent all along.

"Sister, where are you going?"

"Go up the mountain, go up the mountain and get some food."

"Then let's go find Dahe and the others first, and then go up the mountain together."

Jin Meiyu thought about it, and it was fine if she really wanted to, so she listened to him and went to Dahe first.

Dahe and his group are now at Dahe's house.

Dahe's parents died, and Dahe and his younger sister were sent to the ancestral temple, but the house of Dahe's family is still there, but the land was divided among the uncles.

Dahe's house is also an adobe house. It has not been lived in for such a long time. It is dilapidated and dilapidated. If it wants to live in, it needs to be renovated.

This group of children was busy with this matter, pasting the gaps in the walls with mud, getting some straw or reeds to replace the rotten straw on the roof.

There are four mud-embryon thatched cottages, with a simple tidying up and crowding, it is absolutely no problem to accommodate their nine children.

When Jin Meiyu came, the group of children, including the Jin family's twins, were busy with work, and only Xiao Heiwa sat on the side to play with Si Ni.

The arrival of Jin Meiyu attracted everyone's attention. When Dahe knew that Jin Meiyu wanted to go up the mountain to get some food, he didn't talk nonsense and ordered four older ones for Jin Meiyu.

Jin Meiyu was going to leave when she got someone. Jin Mangu glared at the twins and followed Jin Meiyu.

Jin Meiyu took Ren and Xiaoliu up the mountain. The process went smoothly and the rewards were great.

Turning around on the mountain, with the help of Xiao Liu, they actually caught a full-grown male deer.

This male deer weighed at least three hundred catties, Jin Meiyu and the group of children definitely couldn't handle it.

But let the adults come, those children are more or less unwilling.

In the end, it was Jin Meiyu who made the decision and ordered Jin Mangu.

"You go to Zhuzi, ask his family to send out two people, take this deer down the mountain, and give their family a leg in return."

Jin Mangu was reluctant to leave Jin Meiyu, but under her gaze, he still nodded.

Before leaving, I didn't forget to tell those children.

"Take care of my sister-in-law and don't leave her alone."

These children are feeling sorry for the meat that Jin Meiyu promised, but this deer was found by Jin Meiyu's wolf cub, and it was also Xiaoliu who frightened it, causing it to crash into a rock in a panic and kill it. It stands to reason that this deer belongs to Jin Meiyu's, so although they feel distressed, their mentality is still good, and they nodded to Jin Mangu's words and promised.

"Don't worry, we will definitely protect my sister-in-law."

"Yes, we will definitely not let my sister-in-law shed a single hair."

"Leave the safety of my sister-in-law to us. We must be optimistic about my sister-in-law."

Several children promised in one go, and then Jin Mangu quickly ran down the mountain.

The deer is too big for the children to move, so they can only guard it here.

But time-consuming is not enough, so after Jin Mangu left, Jin Meiyu instructed him again.

"Go and pick some wild vegetables, pick the tender ones, and stew them later."

A few children were very obedient, nodded and left.

Of course, these children didn't go far, they just searched near Jin Meiyu, afraid that something might happen to Jin Meiyu.

As for Jin Meiyu, she sat on the deer and took a rest.

After a while, Xiao Liu who ran out came back with two dead rabbits in his mouth.

Jin Meiyu was very happy to see the rabbit, and beckoned him to come over. The hungry Xiaoliu came over obediently, put down the rabbit, stretched out his head obediently, was patted twice, and then ran out again.

As for Jin Meiyu, she reached for a rabbit and put it on the deer, then fumbled in her pocket and found a small knife.

Therefore, when the child picking wild vegetables came back after picking a handful of wild vegetables, what he saw was a bloody, skinned rabbit and a skin with several holes.

The child who was used to suffering felt very distressed, and dared to act decisively when Jin Meiyu went to harm the second one.

"Sister-in-law, wait, let us do it, we can do this kind of work."

"Sister-in-law, wipe your hands, leave this kind of thing to us, we are good at this kind of thing." This is talking nonsense, they usually can't eat enough to eat, so why are they talking about meat.

But when Jin Meiyu gave them the knife, they got busy and learned it without a teacher.

It's not that they are very smart, but that things like skinning really don't have much technical content.

Jin Meiyu gets bloody every time. On the one hand, she is not strong enough. If she is strong enough, she cuts a circle around the rabbit's neck, grabs the leather, and tears it down hard, and it can be torn off. It's a big piece, and when it can't be torn anymore, I use a knife to cut it down little by little, and soon the whole piece of leather will be cut off.

But Jin Meiyu is alone, there is no place to hang the rabbit, she is not strong enough, and she lacks patience, so the skin will be peeled to pieces.

Instead, the four boys cooperated, the one who carried the rabbit carried the rabbit, the one who peeled the skin down, the one who cut the fascia with a knife, and soon, the rabbit skin was completely cut off.

After the rabbit skin was cut off, the children were quite happy.

After all, rabbits are meat, and they taste delicious, which is an excellent harvest.

However, they were not happy for a long time, and Jin Meiyu reached out to ask them for a rabbit.

"Oh, it's really fast, give it to me, Xiao Liu will be back in a while."

To be honest, none of the four would be willing to give meat to dogs.

But after all, this is Jin Meiyu's harvest, so even if they were reluctant, they still handed over the rabbit.

After handing in, a child suddenly said.

"Sister-in-law, call us if this happens again, and we'll peel it off for you! Don't peel it yourself, it's easy to hurt your hands!"

"Okay, I'll call you later, you go pick wild vegetables."

"Hey!"

The child who said that replied took the other three away.

When they left, they also took the rabbit fur with them.

Jin Meiyu saw it, but didn't say anything.

Rabbit skin is useless to Jin Meiyu, but hare's skin is very good.

But for these children, it is often a precious material that can save lives.

So, it's okay to give those rabbit skins to the child, Xiao Liu doesn't care, and Jin Meiyu doesn't care either, so just take it.

Sure enough, Xiao Liu came back after a while, still holding the two rabbits in his mouth.

Abandoning the rabbit that had been bitten to death, Xiao Liu began to eat the skinned rabbit.

Jin Meiyu called the children to come back and continue skinning the rabbits. Xiao Liu ate very quickly, and when the two rabbits were finished eating, one rabbit hadn't been peeled yet.

Xiao Liu licked his lips, turned his head and left again.

Seeing Xiaoliu leave, the skinning speed of the children became much faster. After a while, the skins of the two rabbits were completely peeled off again.The naked rabbit was put on the buck's butt, and the rabbit skin was still taken by the child.

When Xiao Liu came back for the third time and ate another rabbit, Jin Mangu finally brought someone over. ,

The two people who came here still knew each other, Jin Meiyu, a young man and a middle-aged man who came to her house to build a chicken coop for her before.

The middle-aged man was Zhao Xi. After seeing the stag, he acted calmly. He put down the stick in his hand, picked up the rope and came over.

With such a large prey, there is no way for a single person to carry it, so he can only bear it.

Tie the prey's four legs with a rope, and then pass the stick through it. The front and back two work together to lift the stick and put it on the shoulders, so that it can be carried down.

As soon as the two of the Zhao family arrived at the place, they started to prepare for work without breathing well. Jin Meiyu quickly got off the deer and watched them busy.

The Zhao family really thought that they would seldom talk to people, and they would work as soon as they came up, without saying anything unnecessary.

No, the two of them picked up their prey and were about to go down the mountain, but they just looked at Jin Meiyu without saying a word.

"Go down the mountain and find a place where there is no one. Let's deal with this deer first. Have you brought a knife? I only have a small knife here."

Jin Meiyu's intention was obvious, she just didn't want other people in the village to know.

According to common sense, such a prey would usually invite the villagers to a pig-killing banquet after it was brought down the mountain.

The so-called pig-killing banquet refers to the fact that the villagers bring their own rations and bring them to the master's house. After the master's house helps to cook them, the villagers are invited to eat the dishes made from pig meat or offal.

In the same way, unless a large prey such as a male deer is sold directly, the villagers must be invited to eat it.

But Jin Meiyu obviously wanted to deal with it privately.

If this kind of thing is done by an adult and the villagers find out, it will definitely make a fuss.

But instead of Jin Meiyu, the Zhao family didn't think much, and went down the mountain directly.

Jin Meiyu was younger and older, so what happened to killing a deer in private.

It doesn't matter if someone can say a few sour words, and no one will talk about it in two days.

What's more, Jin Meiyu didn't kill her with much fanfare, but killed her quietly. In this way, even if someone finds out later, it doesn't matter, and a well-behaved family will not say anything when they see it.

The Zhao family felt relieved, and the children were also happy. The group went down the mountain happily, and after sharing the venison, they went back to their respective homes.

In the blink of an eye, it was night, and it was time for Jin Meiyu to enter the study space.

Only this time, Jin Meiyu has something to learn.

"01, I want to raise chickens, what should I order for them during the rainy season?"

The subsystem was silent for a while, then said.

"There are a lot of things that can be fed. Now that the host has money, he can hoard some chaff or millet."

"System, you are too extravagant. You can't do this, and I don't have any money. Dahe has a part of that money. After the rainy season, there will be winter, and winter will be cold. In the future, I will buy fields and build houses for them. They all need money, and that little silver is not enough to spend.”

The subsystem searched and tried to match the current situation of the host as much as possible. In the end, it gave something that confused Jin Meiyu.

"The host can raise earthworms."

"What?"

"Raising earthworms. There are many benefits to raising earthworms. The host can feed the earthworms with chicken manure, grass leaves and other things. The feces pulled out after the earthworms eat them will be the best fertilizer. After the earthworms grow up, they can also be used as feed for chickens. Chickens eat them In the end, not only will there be more meat, but more eggs will be laid, which will be more nutritious."

"really?"

"Yes."

Jin Meiyu thought for a while, and finally nodded firmly.

"learned!"

It was only a second to be drawn into the study space, but Jin Meiyu who came out here was full of fighting spirit.

Jin Meiyu, who learned how to raise earthworms systematically in the learning space, is currently making plans with great interest.

It's just that the high-spirited Jin Meiyu fell asleep after a while. After all, in the learning space, she has been studying for 24 days.

Although there is no physical consumption, her spirit is exhausted to the extreme, and her spirit urgently needs a deep sleep.

After sleeping until dawn, today's Jin Meiyu overslept again, opened her eyes in a daze, sat up, and lay in a daze on the bed for a long time, Jin Meiyu suddenly regained her spirits.
