Chapter 310 Heading to the Mountain Stream
Chapter 310 Heading to the Mountain Stream
Butcher Yun thought for a moment and said, "Wife, I'll ask Brother Wu later. If it doesn't work, you can just help us cook two dishes and cut a plate of kimchi."
"We'll eat in the woods next to us. We won't eat with you. We men don't have time to spare when we drink. After dinner, go to bed when it's time."
"No need to wait for me, let's finish our drinks and I'll clean the table myself."
"Okay, you decide when to start drinking. Tell me half an hour in advance and I'll prepare two side dishes for you."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, my wife."
"It's just a few dishes, it's not hard. By the way, wife, are you going to fetch water this afternoon?"
"In the afternoon, Brother Wu and I have agreed that we will continue to fetch water. We will try to fill up all the empty water cans in our house."
Zhang turned to look at Yun Yiyi, "Yiyi, are you guys going into the mountains this afternoon?"
"Mom, let's continue to go into the mountains this afternoon. Just follow the same arrangements as in the morning."
"Third brother, are you tired? How about you stay at home this afternoon while I go to the mountain?"
Brother Yun hesitated for a moment, "Forget it, Brother, I don't like making dumplings. I still prefer going to the mountains."
"But if mom doesn't make dumplings tomorrow, I can stay at home all day."
Zhang was delighted when she heard this. "Even if you want to eat dumplings tomorrow, there won't be any left. The stuffing mother prepared is only enough for today."
"Haha, that's perfect, mother. Let my second brother go up the mountain tomorrow, and I'll help you at home."
Zhang pointed at Third Brother Yun and said, "Lazy little rascal."
Third Brother Yun smiled embarrassedly.
Yun Yiyi looked at Xie Zirui beside her and felt a bit listless.
"Brother Zirui, the place we went to these two days was too far, so we didn't take you with us. However, I'm afraid we will have to stay at home in a few days."
Xie Zirui came over and asked in a low voice, "Yiyi, why do you say that? Can't we go up the mountain all the time recently?"
Yun Yiyi sighed and whispered, "Brother Zirui, it's almost time for the bandits from Qingfeng Village to come down the mountain to collect money and food."
"We don't have many days of peace left."
After listening to this, Xie Zirui also sighed deeply.
"By the way, mother, if a peddler comes this afternoon and sees needles and thread that our family needs, you can buy some too. This will save father from running all the way to town."
"Okay, I'll listen this afternoon. But the peddler didn't come this morning."
Yun Yiyi added one more reminder, "Mom, you can't always go to the peddler to buy things. Someone has to look after the house."
"By the way, Brother Zirui, you should also follow mom to have a look. If the peddler has anything delicious or fun, ask mom to buy it. When we get down the mountain, we can eat and play together."
"It may not be so convenient to buy things in the future."
After hearing this, Yun the Butcher also felt that it made sense.
"Wife, take a look at what we need at home. As long as the price is not too expensive, buy it from the peddler."
"What Yiyi said makes sense. Once we pass Qingfeng Village, we won't have time to buy things later."
Zhang nodded, "Okay, sir, I'll figure out what's missing from the house in a minute."
"By the way, Third Brother, go to the village chief later and tell the village chief's grandmother that if the peddler comes, ask her to send someone to let him know."
"Got it, Mom, I'll run over there right after dinner."
"Let's eat lunch and sleep for an hour before going up the mountain. Otherwise, I really can't climb the mountain anymore."
When Zhang heard Yun Yiyi's words, her heart ached, and she wanted to persuade Yun Yiyi and the others not to go up the mountain in the afternoon.
As a result, before Zhang could even open her mouth, she was shut up by Yun Yiyi's words.
"Mom, we have to go up the mountain this afternoon. The bandits from Qingfeng Village are about to come down the mountain to collect money and food. We must take advantage of the shortest time and go to the mountain to find more food to eat."
"I think going to the mountains to find food, even if it's just wild vegetables, is more meaningful than staying at home."
Butcher Yun said hurriedly, "Okay, Yiyi, but you still need to take breaks and don't tire yourself out."
"Don't worry, Dad. I know what I'm doing."
Zhang silently swallowed what she wanted to say. The children in the family are all good children who care about the family.
She advised them, but they wouldn't listen. Forget it, she should just cook more delicious food for the children at home.
After Yun Yiyi and the other children finished their meal, except for Yun Sange who had to go out to run errands for Zhang, the others washed their feet and went to bed.
Butcher Yun went next door to look for Old Man Wu.
Zhang was cleaning up the pots and pans by herself.
After a few minutes, Brother Yun San also came back.
He whispered to Zhang, "Mother, I've talked to Grandma Li, and she said that if the peddler comes, she'll send someone to call you."
"Okay, Mom got it, Third Brother, you should go to bed now."
"Okay, mother."
Brother Yun went to bed obediently. He took a nap at noon so that he would have enough energy to climb the mountain in the afternoon.
Soon, an hour passed.
Brother Yun woke up first. He quietly woke up Yun Yiyi and Third Brother Yun.
"Okay, big brother, third brother, let's go now."
"Well, let's go."
"Okay, Yiyi."
Yun Yiyi carried a stick, while Big Brother Yun and Third Brother Yun carried baskets on their backs. They lined up and walked up the mountain.
"Yiyi, where are we going this afternoon? Do you have a destination?"
The impatient Third Brother Yun asked first.
Yun Yiyi shook her head, "Third brother, let me think about it."
Yun Yiyi thought about it carefully and realized that they had really wandered around the area.
Where should I go this afternoon? Yun Yiyi thought with a headache.
"Oh, big brother, third brother, let's go to that mountain stream this afternoon. I remember there are still a lot of wild celery there."
"You and Third Brother go ahead and cut the wild celery. I'll walk up the stream to see if I can find something to eat."
"I remember that last time I walked down the mountain stream instead of climbing up. I have time this afternoon, so I will go find out what's going on."
"Even if I can't find anything to eat, we still got some wild celery. This way we won't go down the mountain empty-handed."
Brother Yun voted in favor first, "Okay, Yiyi, I'll listen to you."
Brother Yun San also followed suit and said, "Okay, there is water there. Before we leave, we can wash the wild celery we picked and take it home."
Yun Yiyi nodded, "Third brother, we have to wash it in advance, otherwise the wild celery will be too heavy if it is wet."
Third Brother Yun laughed, "Yiyi, have you forgotten that our father will come to fetch water this afternoon? Then, you can ask Dad to help carry it back home."
Yun Yiyi slapped her head and said, "Yes, how could I have forgotten about this?"
So everyone headed happily towards the mountain stream.
I have walked this road many times, so I walk faster.
