Chapter 6
Mu Shuyao glanced at Jin Hua lightly, and a faint light flashed in her eyes: "These are enough for me for a long time." So there is no need to stay any longer.

Jin Hua opened her mouth, wanting to say that these are not enough for their family to feed for two days, but what does this have to do with others?
She rolled her eyes and licked Erya's back, as if she had discovered some new land: "Why did you pick so little at the second station, be careful for a while, auntie, why don't we two pick it for a while! "

"No need, my uncle and aunt don't like to eat straw mushrooms very much, that's enough." Er Ya smiled and shook her head, jokingly, go pick it with her, find it by yourself and let her pick it, it's a good idea!
"Then, go on, let's go first." Mu Shuyao's expression was still indifferent, and she turned around and headed in another direction.

In the end, Jin Ju could only go down the mountain alone, but she was dissatisfied in her heart, and murmured in her heart that she would call Mu Shuyao next time she went up the mountain.

Seeing Jinju's back gradually drifting away, Mu Shuyao took Erya to the other side, where there was also a large field of straw mushrooms under the shade of the tree, if Jinju saw it, she would definitely not let it go any one.

But Erya just smiled gratefully at Mu Shuyao, and picked a big straw mushroom and put it in her back, and soon her back was also full.

However, Mu Shuyao found a few herbs on the side, which can be regarded as an unexpected harvest.

Erya looked at the way down the mountain, and asked inexplicably, "Yaoyao, don't you still want to blame the old man?"

"He's not here, and I don't know where he went to play again." Mu Shuyao said flatly, "Otherwise, I would definitely throw that man there."

Hearing the resentment in Mu Shuyao's tone, Erya couldn't help laughing, "He's really a weird old man, he can leave whenever he wants, and he's not afraid of being patronized by thieves at home."

"What can there be in his dilapidated house? It's bad luck for the thief to go." Mu Shuyao said indifferently.In fact, the strange old man's house is even weirder than hers, her house is only surrounded by thorny flowers, but the strange old man's house is either poisonous or secret, ordinary people really never return.

The two went down the mountain talking and laughing, just in time to meet Zhang Youqing's father, Zhang Yuchun, who was going down the mountain. Zhang Yuchun was a good hunter, and he usually went up the mountain to hunt during the closing season to supplement his family's income.

At this time, he is holding a lot of prey, including pheasants, robes, rabbits, etc. It seems that he has gained a lot today.

"Uncle Zhang, please wait a moment." Seeing that Zhang Yuchun had reached the foot of the mountain, Mu Shuyao turned a corner and was about to leave, so she hurriedly called out to stop him.

"It's Yaoyao and Erya. You have also gone up the mountain? Is there something wrong?" Zhang Yuchun is a simple mountain man, and he doesn't mean to look down on Mu Shuyao, an orphan.

"Well, Uncle Zhang sees that you hunted quite a lot of prey today, can you sell me a pheasant?" Mu Shuyao said something nice before she made her request.

"What's the big deal for me? There's nothing wrong with it." He said and passed a pheasant over.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang, how much is this?" Mu Shuyao took the pheasant and asked.

"Fifty Wen."

"Oh good, I'll bring the money now, and I'll send it to Uncle Zhang's home later." Mu Shuyao nodded to Zhang Yuchun in thanks.

"It's okay, I'll ask Xiaofang to go for a while." Zhang Yuchun waved his hand indifferently. Everyone in the village knew that although Mu Shuyao was an orphan, she was not short of money. You will know once you buy the first piece of homestead.

"Okay." Mu Shuyao didn't say much, and took Erya home together. The two of them lived very close together.

When Mu Shuyao returned home, she began to tidy up the pheasant that she had bought. At noon, she ate the chicken with roasted mushrooms, and stewed some soup for the other half to feed the man inside.

In the afternoon, Mu Shuyao didn't plan to go outside. After eating, she started to play with the herbs picked in the morning, but just halfway through, the golden flowers came. She also brought her own embroidery basket with embroidery thread and some Handkerchiefs and purses and the like.

Seeing her, Mu Shuyao couldn't help but frowned indistinctly, lowered her head and continued to fiddle with the herbs in her hands.

Looking at the things in her hands, Jin Hua pouted and complained, "Shuyao, why don't you do embroidery work?" She knew that Mu Shuyao was very good at embroidery, so now she came here with embroidery work, She just wanted to steal a teacher from Mu Shuyao, but now she is playing with herbs that she doesn't understand.

Mu Shuyao just raised her head and smiled silently at Jinju, then lowered her head and continued with her work.

Jin Ju sat down with a stool on one side, and put her small basket aside: "What's so good about playing with herbs? Making money is the most important thing. Besides, if you often handle these things, your hands will get thicker, so you won't be able to handle them in the future." Good material to embroider."

Although she didn't know how much Mu Shuyao's embroidery work could sell for, she had a feeling that it would definitely not be too little.

"No, I'm not in a hurry to spend this little money." Mu Shuyao shook her head, ignored Jin Hua, and continued with her movements.

Can you make money only by doing embroidery?Who gave her this illusion?

The movements of Jin Hua's hands froze slightly, the fingertips of the rough hand holding the needle and thread turned slightly white, and her complexion also became slightly ugly.

In this way, the two got along with each other in a strange manner, one was doing embroidery work, and looked at Mu Shuyao in the vegetable field from time to time, while the latter didn't even give her a look.

After feeling her gaze many times, Mu Shuyao raised her head and looked at Jin Ju who was staring at her wondering what she was thinking: "What's the matter?"

Jinju shook her head in embarrassment, looked down at the embroidery work in her hands, her eyes lit up: "Shuyao, can you help me see how to embroider this place? I can't embroider well no matter what."

Mu Shuyao frowned again. She thought it was a little inconvenient for her to act while Jin Hua was here. If the man inside called her something, wouldn't she know about it? Now she still disturbs her work.

Just as Xiang Xiang wanted to speak, a female voice came from the door, it was the voice of a young girl: "Is elder sister Yaoyao there?"

The two people in the yard looked out of the fence at the same time. It was a thin girl, about eleven or twelve years old, her skin was a little tanned by the quilt, and there was a pimple on the tip of her nose, which looked cute and ridiculous.

But Mu Shuyao wouldn't laugh at her, walked to the door and opened it directly: "Why are you here, are you busy at home?"

"No, I'm helping my mother watch my younger brother, and I won't come out until he's asleep." Zhang Xiaofang nodded to Jinhua in the courtyard, as a greeting.

Mu Shuyao smiled, "I told Uncle Zhang, I'll take it there, but he insisted on letting you go. Doesn't this delay your business? Sit down for a while, and I'll get the money." Then she turned and went into the room After a while, he came out again, holding a handful of copper plates in his hand.

When she came out, she saw Zhang Xiaofang reaching out to touch Jinju's embroidery, but she stretched out her hand to open it, and said coldly: "Don't move around, if you break it, can you afford it?"
