So when I went out this time, I took out some food from the space and asked Wei Yi and the others to transport it back to make a clear account of the food at our house. "

"It turns out that it's my sister who thought it through." She praised with a smile.

Shen Yue smiled and did not answer, turning to Wei Ci.

"Aci, you must be tired after a long day, come on, have some midnight snack." Shen Yue had already smelled the smell and immediately pulled him in to look for food.

"Okay, I'm hungry." Wei Ci followed her in. Shen Yue picked up a beef ball with chopsticks and took a bite. "Hey, it turned out to be beef ball. I thought it was pork ball." He exclaimed. road.

"Yes, don't Dabao and the others like to eat it very much? I just want to make some beef balls so that they can eat more and supplement their nutrition."

"Yeah." Shen Yue nodded heavily and picked up another beef ball with her chopsticks.

"Hey, don't eat too hastily, or you may choke." Wei Ci saw her actions and quickly stopped her.

"It's okay. I'm not afraid of choking. It's all a small problem." The two adults only focused on eating themselves, holding the two children in their arms, and could only look at them helplessly.

All the things they bought were packed outside the warehouse. The leader only knew what they bought, not what they bought.

This provides convenience for the material produced in her space.

Early the next morning, someone from the village came to inquire.

"Yulan, I heard that your eldest daughter went out to buy supplies yesterday. Where did she buy it? Can she still buy it? Our family also wants to go out and buy some things."

"I don't know either. Just wait here. I'll call her out immediately and ask her to tell you." Nian stood up and went to the backyard to find someone.

Shen Yue heard someone looking for her, came out and saw that it was Aunt He from the village, and hurriedly asked her to sit down.

"Anyway, we went to a small village more than thirty miles away from Xinmin Village to buy things. Their village didn't have many supplies. I used a lot of things in exchange for them, and they reluctantly gave us the things.

I guess if you go, you may not be able to exchange anything. Not only will the trip be in vain, the most important thing is that you are afraid of encountering danger. "

"Auntie, just tell me what you want to buy. I'll see if I have any at home. If there is, I'll get some for you."

"How can you be so embarrassed? It's so dangerous for you to go out." Aunt He waved her hands quickly.

"Auntie, it's okay, you can tell me."

"Okay, let me tell you the truth. My daughter-in-law is pregnant. She is almost nine months old now, and the chickens at home are very small and haven't laid eggs yet.

I was afraid that when she was in confinement, there would be nothing at home. I wanted to find out if anyone in the village had eggs or old hens, so that I could buy some to replenish her health. "

"So that's it. You told me earlier. I just happened to go out and collect a batch of eggs. There are hundreds of them. I'll get you fifty now.

If there is a pregnant woman at home, she must be more careful. As for the old hen, doesn’t my mother raise several chickens? I might as well catch one for my aunt. "

When Aunt He heard this, she quickly waved her hands.

"Forget it about the old hen. I'll just buy some eggs. You can also give me a bigger hen. If it's an old hen, you can keep it at home to lay eggs."

"That's right. Anyway, it will be at least a few months before your daughter-in-law gives birth. I guess the hen will be able to lay eggs in a few months. When she is in confinement, she will be able to eat eggs."

"Thank you very much. Oh, are you still willing to give me such a good thing at this time? Our family is really grateful."

Aunt He thanked her profusely and took out a silver bracelet from her arms. This bracelet cost about twenty taels. With the patterns engraved on it, it was worth at least three taels of silver.

Today, in order to thank their family, Aunt He directly thrust this bracelet into Nian's hand.

Nian quickly refused, "We don't need such an expensive thing. It's not appropriate. Our family is too embarrassed to accept such an expensive thing from you."

Aunt He smiled and said, "Look what you said, what do you mean by being embarrassed to accept it? Although my family doesn't have much money, I still have to take good care of my daughter-in-law during her confinement period. It's still worth spending money to buy these things."

"Oh, why do we need so much silver? In the past, all you had to give was three cents of silver. Your silver bracelet was enough to buy not only one chicken or dozens of eggs, but even ten chickens. "

"You also said that was in the past, but the world has changed now. If you can exchange money for food, you are already Amitabha. How can I be picky?"

After a lot of arguing between the two, the He family didn't have any extra money, so Nian simply gave her two taels of silver and caught him an extra chicken and thirty more eggs.

This was almost enough for the one tael of silver. Dandan Nian wanted to give more, but Aunt He refused.

Their family can't finish all the eggs in a short while, but now the weather is hot. If they can't finish them all and they go bad, that would be a real heartache.

Aunt He walked back carrying two chickens and a basket of eggs.

The two chickens were so fat and strong that they strangled her hands heavily. This girl is really an honest person this year, charging her a small amount of money for so many things, and cashing in her silver bracelet at the previous market price.

Aunt He thought about this all the way, and when she returned to her home, she was still in a daze.

"Mother, mother..."

"Oh oh oh, I'm back, what are you doing?"

She responded quickly, put the egg basket on the table, and threw the chicken with its feet tied to the ground.

"Mom, where did you go to buy so many things and where did we get the money?" asked Aunt He's son, Wang Dashan.

"Quickly, catch these two chickens in the backyard and lock them up. Feed them some corn. I bought this at your Aunt Nian's house.

I bought it specially for Qiaoyun to eat during her confinement period. There are also these eggs for you and her to eat one a day. "

"Mom, I don't want to eat. You and Qiaoyun can eat. I'm a man and I'm in good health. I don't need to eat this. You can keep it with dad and Qiaoyun. I can just eat every day." Wang Dashan said Wave your hands.

"Nonsense, now all the work in the fields depends on you. Your father is too old and can't help much. Mother feels sorry for you. You have to work in the fields and take care of your wife. How can your body bear the burden? "

"Mom, I can handle it. It's much easier than when I was escaping before. My son can still do this."

Aunt He couldn't help but wipe her tears when she remembered the time when the three of them had to flee the war.

It was a really hard time. My son and daughter-in-law were so exhausted that they were reduced to dry bones, and so was my wife. The family of three did not do anything at all every day.
