Chapter 5

"Tsk tsk, why don't you compare it with my family, this Liuguan is no small money."

"Unfortunately, it didn't fall on my head."

Listening to the thoughts of the people around, Zhang Tuhu raised his greasy face high, as if he had seen Xu Yuan kneeling on the ground begging him to let her go.

"You said this, don't regret it later." Butcher Zhang was afraid that Xu Yuan would go back on his word. This way, his Zhang family has an extra labor force, and secondly...

Let him handle what he said...

Butcher Zhang stroked his stubble-grown chin with his fat hand.

This Xu Yuan looks really good...

It wasn't until Butcher Zhang's potbellied figure disappeared before her eyes that Mother Xu realized what her daughter had just done.

"Yuanyuan, what are you doing so stupid? How can our family's harvest be better than that of Zhang's family!" Xu's mother turned from being puzzled at the beginning to becoming anxious, "Wouldn't you have to let him handle it at that time?"

"No, absolutely not! I'm going to ask Butcher Zhang to pretend it never happened, otherwise..." Father Xu couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.

Xu's father looked worriedly at Wan Wan who had caught Cricket and studied with Li Yin.

Wanwan can't live without a mother, and he can't live without a daughter.

Xu Yuan looked at her parents who were worried about her, and her heart warmed up, "Father, don't worry, my daughter knows what she is doing, and she has a plan in mind. After today, just wait and see if the butcher will send the pigs here." .”

Xu Yuan looked at the elders, reassuring them both.

After hearing this, Xu's father and Xu's mother didn't know what to say, so they had to scatter the soil in the field according to what their daughter said.

"Everything that needs to be done is done, you go back and rest first, we will see you tomorrow." Xu Yuan looked at Xu's father and Xu's mother's worried expression.

You can't tell the second elder that she has a mysterious space. In this age of underdeveloped technology, she will be regarded as a lunatic if you tell her. You have to wait until you see it with your own eyes tomorrow before you can feel at ease.

Xu's father wiped his hands and was about to leave. Xu Yuan sent him two miles before turning back.

"Wanwan, what are you playing?" Xu Yuan bent down and looked at Li Wanwan who was fiddling with something in her hand, Li Yin was sitting beside her, dazed.

The wind blew the ends of his hair onto the long eyelashes, and he stared at Xu Yuan for a while, until Wanwan poked the little figure made of mud in front of Xu Yuan's eyes, and then called her god back.

"Ah... Wanwan is really amazing."

Xu Yuan took the mud block that could vaguely be seen as a human being, and patted Wanwan's head.

A vegetable merchant in the distance watched all this with helplessness in his interested eyes.

This woman is too arrogant...

Xu Yuan here led Wanwan away without knowing it.

Passing by a hill, Wanwan suddenly took Xu Yuan's hand and stopped, "Mother, there will be bamboo shoots growing out here. When I was playing on it yesterday, there were small bamboo shoots that I didn't pick. It's probably bigger."

Xu Yuan and Wanwan looked at each other with a smile. Today's lunch can be added.

With half a basket of bamboo shoots, Xu Yuan was in a very good mood and walked much more briskly.

At noon, a large pot of bamboo shoot soup was cooked, and the family of three ate with round stomachs.

Xu Yuan wandered around the whole village for a while after eating, wishing that the sun would soon set before she could find her way home. Xu Yuan originally thought the village was not big, but after wandering around like this, she got a little familiar.

After making soup from the remaining bamboo shoots, the whole family rested just like yesterday.

After all, tomorrow is a busy day.

"Mother, will we really have a piglet tomorrow?" Wanwan asked suddenly, clutching the damp and worn-out quilt with both hands.

Xu Yuan was preoccupied with planning to dry the quilt tomorrow, "Well, tomorrow there will be piglets to raise. Tomorrow you can tidy up the empty pen at home and wait for the piglets." Tucking the corner of the quilt for Wanwan, Xu Yuan sat Put the quilt over the legs on the bed and continue to dream.

It's been two days since I've traveled here. The changes in these two days can be said to have brought a big change to Xu Yuan, losing her original life and becoming another person.

There is also a daughter and a husband. I really don't know if it is good or bad.

Just as she was in a daze, her feet suddenly moved. Xu Yuan raised her eyes, and it was Li Yin who followed her example to tuck her in the quilt.

Xu Yuan smiled.

Maybe it's a good thing too.

At least, he was still there. Although he was no longer alone, Xu Yuan knew it in her heart, but with the same face, Xu Yuan always had the feeling that he was still alive and by her side.

"Okay, you go to bed quickly."

Xu Yuan took advantage of the darkness and thought about going to sleep quickly. The family couldn't even afford wax oil, so now she could only watch tomorrow's harvest and take one step at a time.

The next morning, it was dark before dawn, and Xu Yuan was woken up by the sound of ping-pong-pong in the kitchen. Xu Yuan thought that a thief had entered, so she walked over with a broken pot in her hand.

Unexpectedly, it was Li Yin, with an innocent and handsome face silently saying the word hungry, Xu Yuan heaved a sigh of relief, and baked the last bit of flour, while Li Yin sat beside her, filling her with firewood conscientiously.

After baking the pancakes, the smell of Wanwan in the room also came, and the three of them sat on the mud stalks and finished eating, and it was dawn.

"Let's go and see the harvest in the field." Xu Yuan walked along the ridge with two people who seemed to be very happy today, but they didn't see anyone along the way.

After finally seeing a little boy, Wanwan went up and asked, "Da Zhuang, why didn't your father come with you?"

"Wanwan, my father and mother went to your field to watch the fun, and they said that the butcher Zhang bet on the three little pigs." When the big man said it, Xu Yuan knew it.

During these famine years, people are living on the tip of their swords. When they encounter this kind of excitement, they naturally want to go and see it.

Walking all the way to the edge of the field, Xu Yuan saw the tall and fat Butcher Zhang also coming.

Xu Chi, who has good eyesight, saw his sister and Butcher Zhang walking side by side at a glance, so he went up to meet her.

When Xu Yuan saw him running and walking away, she knew immediately. Sure enough, the utility of this space was more powerful than she imagined.

"Yuanyuan, I didn't expect it to be true! I really got a harvest!" He came to the field early today, and he was already extremely excited. Originally, he thought that his sister was crazy, but he didn't expect it to be because he had a well-thought-out plan.

"Don't worry, I'll see when I see it myself."

Butcher Zhang snorted coldly at the side, "What are you dreaming about when the sky is bright and white? With your shabby four-quarters of land, it's not enough to feed a few rice worms in your family. If you want to compare with me, you are still old." Be honest and prepare to sell the deed, and get it back sooner when I go back."

Butcher Zhang said, showing his signature greasy smile.

Xu Yuan felt nauseous for a while.
