[Chapter 10] Brother and sister enter the mountain
Yu Wan didn't interfere in the matter after that. After paying the medicine, she brought Xiao Tiedan out. She took her younger brother's little hand to the side of the road and put her shriveled purse in her arms.
Just now, she turned over her purse. Xiao Tiedan could see clearly that she did not leave a single copper coin.
Xiao Tiedan can't understand what this means.
But what he understood even more was that those copper plates were used to buy medicine for uncle.
Although he really wants to eat osmanthus cake, he hopes that his uncle can get better.
"Tiedan..." Yu Wan bent down.
Xiao Tiedan held back the little sadness in her heart and said sensiblely: "My sister is fine, I don't like to eat osmanthus cake!"
"Is that true?" Yu Wan gently rubbed his little head, and her bare hands slipped from his ears. A copper plate with a round outer and square inner part appeared between her index finger and middle finger.
She smiled softly.
Xiao Tiedan's eyes glared and hurriedly touched his ears: "I, I, I have copper in my ears?"
Yu Wan smiled: "Do you still want osmanthus cake?"
"I want it! I want it!" Xiao Tiedan shouted with excitement! The loss was wiped out, and the joy of losing it was even more surprising than the first time I learned that I could eat osmanthus cake!
"How to sell osmanthus cake?" Yu Wan came to the stall.
The vendor said: "One copper plate is one."
"Give me one." Yu Wan handed him the copper plate in her hand, "Can you help cut it in half?"
A copper plate osmanthus cake is already small enough, how small is it to cut in half?
The vendor glanced at the siblings strangely, but still agreed with a smile: "Okay."
The vendor not only cut a thin piece of osmanthus cake in half, but also wrapped it thoughtfully.
"Thank you." Yu Wan thanked him and handed half of the osmanthus cake to Xiao Tiedan, "Save the other half to Xiaomei, okay?"
"Yeah!" Xiao Tiedan nodded happily!
...
"Brother, what is that woman selling in the gourd?"
"How do I know?"
"I used to borrow money from her, but I couldn't even borrow a copper plate. Now that my legs are not cured, she came to pretend again!"
Yu Feng frowned: "Who told you that my father's legs cannot be cured?"
Yu Song opened his mouth and wanted to say, "That's what the doctor said. You were there at that time. Didn't you hear it?" The best treatment period has passed, and now taking medicine is just to prevent the situation from worsening..."
He couldn't say these words after all.
However, the elder brother did not deny that the woman was pretending, right?
He just knew!
She is really a good person!
I don't know what she is trying to do!
While Yu Song was so angry that he was half-expected by Yu Wan's alms, he had to suppress his anger and take the medicine bag handed over by the medicine boy.
He thought, maybe this is what she wanted, she wanted to piss them to death!
...
After buying osmanthus cakes for copper plates that were left as fare, Yu Wan really couldn't make a second one, so she had to walk back to the village with Xiao Tiedan.
Xiao Tiedan was tired of walking, so she licked the osmanthus cake in the paper bag.
The Yu brothers who followed behind them were really unable to see it, so they stepped forward and picked up Xiao Tiedan, each of them for a while, and took turns to carry Xiao Tiedan back to the village.
Xiao Tiedan fell asleep halfway, and the two brothers had to send him home in one go.
When the aunt who had been caring for Jiang's family for half a day saw her two sons appearing at the gate of Awan's house with Awan, her eyebrows beat!
Then, when she saw the little Tiedan sleeping soundly in Yu Feng's arms, she immediately felt relieved.
She glanced at Awan and said lukewarmly: "If you come back, go in. Your mother is fine, and we should go back too."
"Auntie." Awan called her, took out a small paper bag from her arms, and said with a smile, "For the little sister."
The aunt hesitated for a moment and reached out to take it.
When she arrived at a place where there was no one, the aunt planned to throw it away, but she took it apart by chance.
Osmanthus cake.
The little daughter cried and wanted to eat osmanthus cake.
In the afternoon, when Yu Wan finished packing her house and was about to enter the mountain again, Yu Feng came to her house.
"You don't have to worry about the matter in the pharmacy. I will go to the government in three days."
The matter has reached an irreversible level. He doesn't blame her for making a fuss. After all, there was no better way at that time, but he doesn't think she could get so much money in just three days unless-
There is still some remaining money she brought back back then.
Soon, Yu Feng denied such speculation.
With the mother and son of the Zhao family here, even if she had a lot of money, she would have been emptied.
"This is my family's business..."
Yu Wan interrupted him with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't let my elder brother go to the government."
"You..." Yu Feng frowned even more.
Yu Wan looked at her elder brother and said, "I said it will be resolved."
Yu Feng said coldly: "Including profits, there are twenty taels!"
They get up early and work on the ground late every day, and they can't save one or two taels a month. No matter how good the fish is, no matter how many bamboo shoots are, can they get such a large amount of accounts in just three days?
Yu Wan had no intention of arguing with him and brought the tools to the mountain from her backyard.
In the village, her family is the only one that directly connects to the back mountain. At that time, the land was deserted and too close to the back mountain, snakes, rats, ants and insects often appear. Awan is cheap, and Jiang is quiet, so she bought this land and built a house.
This is the first time Yu Feng has gone to the back mountain of Awan's house. The hillside looks small but it looks different when you turn over it.
Villagers often go up the mountain to chop wood, but they walk on the other side of the ridge of the west end of the village. As more people walk there, they gradually step out a path. Unlike here, where the trees and thorns are bushes and thick shade, there are unpredictable crises everywhere.
He looked at A Wan who was leading the way and thought to himself that he was really his sister? Why was even the momentum of walking different from what he remembered?
"Here." Yu Wan stopped near the river.
There is actually a river here... Yu Feng was slightly surprised: "You are fishing here?"
He dared to bet that the river had never been fished by the villagers, no wonder the fish were fat and numerous.
"You girl's house is deep in the heart of the forest. Are you not afraid of encountering anything?" Even if he occasionally goes to the mountains to hunt, he has never been to such a deep place.
"Does my brother mean fish?" Yu Wan chuckled.
Yu Feng stopped talking.
As the saying goes, wealth and honor are in danger, it is not unreasonable.
Yu Wan took out the shovel and started digging the ground dragon.
"You were most afraid of this before." Yu Feng said in confusion.
"Now I'm not afraid." Yu Wanyun said calmly. There was nothing to hide. She was really not afraid. However, she didn't want to explain her changes too much. She changed the subject, "Brother follows me all the way up the mountain, it's not just to see me fishing, right?"
Of course... not!
Only then did Yu Feng realize that he was following her up the mountain obediently!
How could it be...
Yu Wan took out a hatchet from the basket and bent her lips slightly: "Then please help me cut off the firewood for me."
Yu Feng looked at her coldly: "You can't sell twenty taels of fish in the entire river!"
"Give it." Yu Wan ignored his words, stepped forward and stuffed the hatchet into his hand, then left him and went fishing alone. After she caught the fish, she went to dig winter bamboo shoots. When she returned with a full load, Yu Feng had chopped the firewood and had already picked three times. Now it was the fourth time.
"Thank you, brother, it's enough." Yu Wan nodded with a smile and went back to the backyard with Yu Feng.
As soon as Yu Feng put down the shoulder pole, Yu Wan handed him two clean large wooden barrels: "Brother, please help me with some water?"
Yu Feng's face became very ugly.
This girl is not polite to call people to come?
When Yu Feng came back from carrying the water, Yu Wan was busy with supper.
"If possible, brother will help me cook some more?" Yu Wan said with her eyebrows and eyes.
Yu Feng completely turned black.
"Forget it." Yu Wan stir-fry the pork belly in the pot, "I'm afraid you have a bad cooking skills."
