Chapter 432 Calf(1/2)
"Mom, please keep the banknote for me, and ask Uncle Luo to bring a message to He Zhong tomorrow. Just tell him that we have decided on that shop. Although we know it is General Xue Qi's property, what's the trouble?
He has been with me several times and it’s hard to get past him, so let him earn the winning fee, hehe!” The smile on Yan Yu’s face didn’t stop when he called back.
Seeing her like this, Li Xuemei felt happy in her heart and said with a smile: "You can buy a shop, which is really a blessing for you."
"I have them all. I'm happy when the ginseng is sold at a high price. I'm also happy that the shop can finally buy it." Yan Yu smiled happily: "I know that the ginseng seller is under the influence of the eldest brother of the prince. The people of the prince's concubine say so.
The price is less. In fact, in Guanzhou, the price is as high as it can go. Regardless of whether they know that buying ginseng in the south is different from that in the north, I have to say that. Taking advantage of others quietly is not what you are doing.
Girly style.”
Li Xuemei nodded with a smile.
Her daughter is like this, she has her own account in mind, and she makes money transparently and innocently.
"Maybe the prince went back and told her about the box, or maybe he simply wanted to take care of the family that the prince is friends with." After Yan Yu calmed down, she gradually figured it out. "In short, we feel the kindness of others.
, I also took it, hehe, mother, the most important thing is that we have a house in Fucheng!"
"The yard of that shop is really big. Plan it carefully. There are stalls in the front and back. There is a wall in the middle. There is a clean area next to the bamboo stove. Let's live there as a family. Calculate the days. Mom, you should be there next year.
When I give birth around February, I have inquired about it, and all the good mothers have to arrange the date in advance, but when it comes to our rural place, people are not willing to come, so we will simply move to the capital after the Chinese New Year..." Yan
Yu obviously thought about it for a long time and said it clearly and logically.
Li Xuemei touched her belly, and as if responding to her, a bulging ball touched her palm.
"Sanya, then let's go to your Erya sister's house to stay for a while."
Yan Yu:……
"Mom, why are you so stupid?" She muttered.
Nothing, I just want to make myself happy.
Li Xuemei gradually stopped laughing and asked with concern: "Have you prepared everything? I don't know how many days we have to walk in the mountains. Bring more food. Don't be reluctant to take more of the snake meat."
She thought about it, bit her lip and said, "Why don't you also bring our iron crossbow..."
Yan Yu held her hand and shook it gently: "No, mother, an ordinary bamboo crossbow is enough. With your daughter's strength and the speed of a donkey and three treasures running, don't worry.
I told you to go and get a feel for the situation, there is no danger."
…
Yan Yu did prepare a lot of food.
For her own sake, she also considered Fourth Uncle Qi's appetite.
There is definitely no shortage of wild animals in the mountains, but the purpose of their trip is not to hunt in the mountains but to cross the mountains to Beirong, so they try not to waste time on the way.
The reason why she couldn't wait one more day was that she found that the snow on the ground was already showing signs of civilization. Thinking about it from her perspective, after days of heavy snow, it finally cleared up. Will Beirong herd cattle and sheep in search of food?
Yan Yu thought, most likely he would.
"Uncle Qi, stop and have something to eat." Yan Yu shouted.
Qi Si responded and got off the cow. The first thing he did not eat was to find some fodder nearby and feed the Three Treasures first...
Sanbao ate some to show his dignity, and then he walked around the area with his tail wagging, picking at the green grass left in the mountains and eating pieces here and there.
The donkeys followed suit and wandered around eating the greenery nearby.
Yan Yu really...
A hundred secrets and a sparse.
She only brought food for people, but forgot that the three treasures also needed to eat.
Fortunately, Fourth Uncle Qi didn't think of this, and thought that they could just eat some. He couldn't tell how much they had eaten, whether the grass was what cows and donkeys liked to eat, whether the frequency of pooping was correct, etc...
Yan Yu secretly ordered the poop to fall freely.
Some eat and some have diarrhea.
Thinking about it, in the eyes of Fourth Uncle Qi, it was very realistic.
He stayed still and ran out. After a while, he turned back with brisk steps, holding a rabbit in his mouth.
Qi Si laughed and started picking things up happily.
Set up a fire, fill the pot with snow, and the snow turns into water. While it's still hot, use it to wash the skinned rabbit meat. When it's almost done, put it on the fire to roast.
Yan Yu washed the rabbit skin with snow to remove as much blood as possible, then spread the skin with branches and baked it by the fire. When it felt warm and dry, he put it away.
Pour the water brought by the two people into the pot again, wait for the water to boil, and throw in some dried vegetables. The vegetable leaves slowly stretch out and become soft after absorbing the water. The frozen and hard snake meat is put into the pot.
A pinch of salt and it becomes an irresistible delicacy.
They brought a lot of dry food, tore it open and dipped it in the soup, and the two of them started eating.
A mouthful of hot soup will warm your whole body.
After the two of them had filled their stomachs with broth and dry food, the rabbit was roasted and the two of them started eating.
Qi Si ate the most, followed by Yan Yu, and Gouzi at the bottom.
After the meal was over, Qi Si and Yan Yu cleaned up neatly, smoothing the place where the fire was lit with the remaining snow around them. There was no need to wash the pot. If there was anything unclean about the broth they drank, they could just put it away.
They have been walking in the mountains for two days.
During the day, the two of them took turns to squint, and during the night, they took turns to keep watch.
Both the older ones and the younger ones have excellent physical strength, and they have oxen and donkeys to travel with them, so the hard work is really nothing.
At noon on the third day, they finally walked out of the mountain.
The vast grassland was right in front of them.
The white snow melts, revealing large areas of green and yellow color.
…
"There are so many cattle and sheep!" Qi Si said in a rough voice, his eyes shining.
At this time, Qi Si and Yan Yu had been searching on the grassland for two days. Huangtian paid off and they finally found him!
According to Yan Yu's speculation, they should be in the middle zone between Huju and Longxing, with the mountains as the vertical axis, and the horizontal and vertical depth should be more than a hundred miles.
The two of them were lying on the ground, using the bulge of the earth bag to cover their bodies.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gouzhu also obediently put his head on the ground and swung his tail regularly.
The three treasures and the donkey were left behind a pile of rocks to prevent their whereabouts from being exposed.
Yan Yu counted back and forth several times.
I didn’t even count how many cattle and sheep there were.
In short, enough is enough!
Sheep are sheep, with gray curly hair, each one is like a moving gray ball, grazing leisurely.
The cattle are very different from those in Guan Nei. Most of them are reddish in color. The bulls look tall, the cows have short legs, and there are some mottled ones with white, black and white stripes on their bodies, all black...
Yan Yu couldn't help but swallow her saliva. No matter what the flowers were, the meat was the same.
"There are not many people grazing, Uncle Qi, what a good opportunity!" Yan Yu said.
Qi Si clenched the stick in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Xiaoer, if you say you will, I will charge you."
Yan Yu: "There are too many cattle and sheep. We can't take away so many. If we charge directly, I'm afraid they will have a long memory and be wary of us in the future. I think it's better to come secretly. It's better to steal a few without anyone noticing."
Walk."
She thought that she couldn't scare the snake away. There were so many cattle and sheep, and if only a few were lost, they might not even be able to count them.
But if it is exposed, it will not be so convenient to come back in the future.
"What should we do?" Qi Si asked.
Yan Yu stared at the cattle and sheep, and said slowly: "Keep an eye on them first and see where they go back at night."
First determine Beirong’s camp and then think of other options.
…
If it's summer, the night on the grassland will probably be beautiful, and you should be able to see twinkling stars all over the sky when you look up.
But at this moment, Yan Yu is not beautiful at all.
Snowing!
The wind was not too strong, it was blowing loudly, and it would smear her face at every turn.
Fortunately, the weather is cold, and people in Xiaoan Village are accustomed to wearing masks. Yan Yu and Qi Si both wore them, leaving only their eyes exposed.
Despite the wind and snow, the two men and cats remained motionless behind the stone.
The body is cold, but the heart is hot.
This is a gathering place for Beirong, so close to the enemy. Yan Yu feels that his adrenaline is soaring. It's really exciting!
They followed all the way, not daring to get too close when it was still bright, and only cautiously approached at night.
