After rebirth, I win people's hearts by being cute

Thinking about what would happen in the next year, Liu Huan thought about how to avoid this risk even when he was sleeping.

It is not realistic to take the whole family away. The family does not have that much money and there is no legitimate reason. Su's father and mother will not leave their hometown for no reason.

With the intelligence of the stone, it will definitely notice something. If that's the case, how should I explain it?

It's no good staying in the town. If a robbery really happens, how can a family of weak people win?

Then we can only go to Thatched Village. At least robbing in such a poor place is not the first choice.

The only thing to overcome is the wild beasts in the mountains and how to prevent the wolves from coming down the mountain.

As well as food storage and house construction, this thatched hut is simply not capable of withstanding the attacks of wild boars and wolves.

I fell asleep thinking about it.

I got up very early the next day and found Dashi had already gone to collect grass for the pigs. There were many chickens at home, so they ate a lot in a day.

Cao'er made breakfast and was worried: "Recently, the grass can only be cut in the morning. In the afternoon, it becomes droopy and cannot be cut. If it doesn't rain again, it will be a problem to feed the chickens in the future."

After having breakfast, the family went to pick peppers while it was still light. Although it is autumn, the autumn heat should not be underestimated.

When I got to the field, I found that some people had picked a lot earlier than me.

"Da Nian's wife is back. How is Da Nian?"

Su's mother answered truthfully: "It's fine, but I can't move. I'm recovering in town."

The aunt said, "That's good. We were so worried that day that we couldn't even eat pork with peace of mind."

Mother Su smiled with relief: "Yes, I'm glad you're okay."

After a brief chat, he started picking the fruits for his own home.

Because the whole root was dry, we had to pick them all at once. After a while, the sun came out and it felt like a small fire burning on our bodies, making us feel uncomfortable with the heat.

After picking the grass for a while, Cao'er went back to cook. Su's mother started to carry the fruits home, while Liu Huan, Dashi and Xiaoshi concentrated on picking the fruits.

It's all bending work, and I can't even straighten my back at the end of the day. I go to bed immediately after dinner, and the cycle repeats itself the next day.

Because we picked a lot and the weather was good, we didn't have time to carry them to sell like other families, so we had to dry them all.

Part of the family’s land is grown with peppers, part is grown with rice, and the main purpose is to pay taxes.

The family worked for several days to finish the job. They dried the rice and let the soldiers take it away without knowing what it looked like inside.

Liu Huan looked at the yard full of red peppers, and loved them as if they were his own children. All the hard work seemed worth it at that moment.

"Mom, let's take some with us when we go to town this time."

Su's mother thought the same thing: "Okay, bring more food this time. Food in town is expensive, so don't waste that money."

Liu Huan looked at the chickens at home in deep thought. Once everyone left, the chickens would be handed over to Dashi again. Pig grass was hard to find now, and there were hundreds of chickens. He would definitely not be able to handle it all by himself.

"Mom, why don't you sell some chickens? The weather is getting hotter now, pig grass is hard to find, and we can't get away. It's too hard for my brother to do it alone."

Liu Huan expressed his idea, and Su's mother agreed. She immediately tied up a few and said she would come to buy some every market day.

In order to reward Cao'er and the other two who were at home, he caught another one and made soup for everyone.

On the last day of Shitou’s autumn harvest holiday, the two followed the villagers who were selling chili peppers back home.

He started shouting from a distance: "Shi Tou, are you home?"

Shitou put down his pen and ink, went out, took the things in their hands and took them to the warehouse.

Liu Huan followed him and chattered, saying that Xiaoshi was very well-behaved at home and how many peppers he had harvested.

He said "Ah" without paying attention, and Shitou turned around and hit him directly.

"Shitou, can't you just watch out?"

She was the first to complain. Shitou was helpless and amused. He pulled the loose hair away from her forehead and said, "You are in such a bad sun, why don't you wear the hat you bought for me?"

When she left that day, Shitou bought her a sun hat, but judging by the extent of her sunburn, she probably didn't wear it.

"It's uncomfortable to wear. Sweat is all over my face, and it tends to get caught on the pepper stems when I squat, so I don't wear it."

Perhaps it was because Liu Huan looked too pitiful that Shi Tou couldn't bear to look at her.

He avoided her gaze: "I'll go get you some food."

Knowing that they would definitely come back today, he prepared food in advance and was waiting for them.

While eating, Liu Huan repeated to him what Aunt Lian had said, and also said that all the peppers at home had dried up.

Anyway, I just talked about all the changes in the village.

Shitou would put food into her bowl from time to time, listen to her carefully, and nod in response from time to time.

"Shi Tou, if it doesn't rain, will there be a natural disaster?"

After Liu Huan said this, he saw Shi Tou's hand pause.

She knew he listened.

That night, after Shitou finished grinding the beans, he returned to the academy. Liu Huan and Su's mother lit the tofu with the kerosene lamp before going to bed.

The next day, he started selling tofu again and doubled the quantity.

She had planned to rent a shop before, but now she feels that it is unnecessary. She plans to earn more money before the drought comes and then stock up more food.

After the tofu was on the right track, she started making tofu-derived products, such as bean curd skin, bean curd sticks, and braised dried tofu, and she also soaked some to make cold dishes.

It is so popular that it is no exaggeration to say that it is a hit.

An old customer said: "Boss, this salad you make is really delicious, please make more next time."

Su's mother smiled so hard that her teeth could not be seen. "I am really sorry. It's just me and my daughter at home. My son is studying and I am too busy to take care of everything."

Others began to compliment him: "Your son is studying in a college. No matter how poor he is, he will be a scholar in the future."

Su's mother responded modestly: "Thank you for the compliment. I don't expect him to achieve much, I just hope he won't be blind."

Because of what happened that day, everyone knew that the county magistrate had given his family a jade pendant, which was like a backer for his family, so no one dared to step forward and cause trouble.

Others can only envy.

In the academy cafeteria, Shitou now eats lunch in the cafeteria because Su's mother is so busy that the meal time is not fixed.

As soon as he sat down after getting his meal, his desk mate followed suit.

"Brother Su, try this cold dish. It's the best cold dish I've ever had. I've never had it before."

Shitou looked up and saw that it was something produced by his family, so he asked seriously, "Is it delicious?"

Chu Xuan picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth. "It's delicious, but the portion is small. My servant went to queue up early to buy these."

"If you want to eat, I can share some with you."

Shitou shook his head, "No, you can eat it yourself."

The others nearby smelled the fragrance and came over, "Brother Chu, it smells so good, can I have a taste?"

Chu Xuan protected them like a cub, "Get lost, this is all I have, what would I eat if I gave it to you guys?"

Those people didn't care whether he agreed or not, they just picked up their chopsticks and ate it. The little boy ate it with a clamor, "Brother Chu, this is really delicious, I want to buy some tomorrow."

Chu Xuan was furious: "You think this is so easy to buy? Even if you have money, you can't eat it, okay?"

Shitou didn't join them. He ate quickly and left. He had to finish his homework quickly and go back to grind soy milk.
