I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 216 Roasting on the Fire

 “Who knows, it should be the last wave.”

This kind of raspberry usually matures in June and July. You can still see it at this time. She doesn't know why.

Looking at the half basket of raspberries, Baiyun Xi couldn't be happier. No matter when they ripen, as long as there are some to eat, it's good. Maybe they have caught the last wave.

By the time the two of them returned to the chestnut tree, Xiaosi had already filled the baskets and bags.

“You two come here and try the fruit we picked. It tastes very good.”

Looking at the red raspberries, Bai Anyan was also surprised. After eating the fruit and resting for a while, he carried the basket and the cloth bag down the mountain.

At sunset, a few people pushed the cart back home in the afterglow.

　　The days of clearing wasteland are hard and busy, but for Baiyunxi and others, these are their hopes for the coming year and the sustenance of their hearts.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed, just in time for the early winter frost.

Early in the morning, Baiyunxi opened the door, looked at the white frost flowers falling in the yard, and felt the cold air rushing towards her. She knew that winter was coming.

 Fortunately, they have also opened up ten acres of sloping land, and the remaining part should be able to be cleared before it freezes.

It's frosty, and it's time to harvest the remaining acres of sweet potatoes.

After the family had breakfast, Baiyun Xi asked them to pull the cart and carry poles to harvest sweet potatoes in the dry land on the other side of the Qingshui River.

That sweet potato field is also one of their winter rations.

 The second brother left first with the two brothers, while Baiyunxi stayed at home. The weather was good these days, and the moisture in the persimmons was almost gone.

The three of them, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, have to cover the dried persimmons and then go to the fields to help clean them up.

While the others were busy, Mrs. Li recounted the news heard on the street to Bai Yunxi.

“Mother, do you know? People in the village are now saying that the first uncle is preparing our old house for the second uncle to live there. They also say that the first uncle values ​​love and righteousness.”

“In order to prevent my brother from suffering a loss, I would rather spend all my money to let my brother live in a good house.”

Even Du Shi couldn’t help but agree,

“I went to my third grandma’s house the day before yesterday and heard what they said. It seems that the first uncle is really going to give up the house to the second uncle’s family.”

Hearing Li's words, Bai Yunxi was stunned, and the surroundings finally became quieter. She didn't pay attention to what happened at her cousin's house.

However, since this news can be spread, it is probably inseparable. He was roasted on the fire and had to make a choice.

The only thing that made her curious was, how could Zheng, a person who had no profit and could not afford to stay early, willingly give up the house?

 Having spent money and trouble, in the end it’s a waste of money and you can be content with it.

Even if we reluctantly give up the yard, we may not be able to make up for it elsewhere.

Let’s take a look.

Even so, it is a good thing for the second cousin's family. With their quiet character, if this mistake had not been made, when the uncle and his wife are a hundred years old, the second cousin's family may have been stabbed several times. The money was spent.

 All the persimmons were covered, and three medium-sized jars were used. The mouths of the jars were sealed, and Li moved them to the woodshed.

“Well, when winter comes, we will have persimmons to eat.”

Bai Yunxi nodded, "When the time comes, we will sell the persimmonshuang and keep the persimmons. We will have no problem eating them all winter."

Just as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were cleaning up and preparing to go out to the fields, a cough came from outside the fence gate.
