These years of being the queen mother!

Hearing that Yang Lingyue was going to trade the snake meat he had finally obtained for some salt, the village official's eyes flashed with pity, and Yang Lingyue didn't need to say anything nice, the village official simply wrapped some of it in bamboo leaves for Yang Lingyue. Salt, and finally, when Yang Lingyue said goodbye and left, the village official stuffed a small can of bean paste into her arms.

"Thank you ma'am."

Yang Lingyue thanked her sincerely, and hurried up the mountain, stopping and stopping along the way. When the sun was setting, Yang Lingyue returned to the ruined temple with a tired expression.

At this time, Yang Mingda had already set up a bonfire, and snake meat was being cooked in an earthen pot, and the smell of meat drifted away with the tumbling soup, and he kept drilling his nose, hooking the greedy worm in Yang Lingyue's stomach Keep going out!

Yang Lingyue licked her lips, quickly opened the salt wrapped in bamboo leaves, and poured a little into the crock with her fingers. "These are enough for my siblings to eat for a few days."

Yang Lingyue carefully put away the remaining edible salt, then sat back by the campfire, saying with a flat face. "Brother Ming, we can't go on like this. We have to think of a way to bring back some necessities for life." It's almost summer now, and it's easy to live without food and clothing, but once autumn is over and winter comes, it's just her sister and brother. I'm afraid it will be difficult to wear thin clothes, so to plan ahead, Yang Lingyue made plans several months in advance, after all, she couldn't bear the heart to leave Yang Mingda alone.

"Sister, what can I do?"

Yang Mingda knew that his elder sister was very thoughtful and would always make up her mind, so she threw the question to Yang Lingyue and let her decide.Yang Lingyue also knew that her younger brother was honest and careless, so she rubbed her head with a headache when she heard him say that.

As a modern person, she is very unfamiliar with this ancient times, so she can think of a good way, she can't imitate the woodcutter who chops wood and brings Yang Mingda to chop firewood and sell copper coins together.

Hey, don't say it, this method is still feasible...

When Yang Lingyue thought about it, she told Yang Mingda that this idea was neither good nor bad. After Yang Mingda heard it, he didn't say anything against it. The ruined temples living on the mountain not only have many animals, but also have many flowers and trees.

"Well, let's do that."

Yang Lingyue moved her mouth slightly and smiled, then scooped up the snake meat boiled in the crock pot and piled it all up in Yang Mingda's bowl, while she soaked the remaining soup and ate the wild vegetable dumpling made yesterday.

"Don't stare at sister with tears in your eyes..." Yang Lingyue, who was stared at by Yang Mingda's puppy-like eyes, felt that she was not thick enough to continue eating calmly, so she had to say in a warm tone: "Sister, take care of yourself." Hey Brother Ming, let Brother Ming grow up strong, so that he will have the strength to work."

Yang Lingyue knew about her own family affairs, and with her two or three ounces of strength, she was struggling to carry a bucket, let alone chopping firewood and selling it to earn copper coins, so whether it was out of concern or selfishness, Yang Lingyue had to raise Yang Mingda into a strong man. Strong.

Eating a little richer food than before, the siblings began to talk about life.While talking, for some reason, the topic changed, and it came to the biological father of the siblings.At that time when they were driven out of the house with their mother, both siblings were still young, so they couldn’t remember what was the reason. They only vaguely heard the original biological mother crying and complaining that the biological father disliked the mother’s mother’s family, so they let the concubine do it. The direct relatives and direct descendants even followed the concubine's miscarriage and said that the original mother could not tolerate others, and drove them out...

It's just that Yang Lingyue was a little puzzled. They were from Suning, Zhili (now Suning County, Cangzhou, Hebei). How could they come to the suburbs of Beijing to beg for a living.

"My sister forgot..." Yang Mingda said vaguely. "Grandma told Mother before she passed away that Grandpa went to the capital to beg for a living. So after being kicked out of the house, Mother brought us siblings all the way to the capital..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Lingyue also had this impression in her mind, and she couldn't help asking in surprise, "Did you find grandpa..."

Yang Mingda shook his head, and replied in a low voice: "No, mother said that she took us around the capital for several years, but there was no one called Wei Tiedan."

The name Wei Tiedan...

Not wanting to slander the legendary grandfather's real name, Yang Lingyue twitched her lips, and didn't bring up the topic of continuing to look for relatives. She only said that she would get up early and sent Yang Mingda to rest early.

Since this ruined temple on the top of the mountain depression only lived with two siblings, straw was spread on both sides of the ruined temple, and one person lived on one side, paying attention to the difference between men and women.

After a night without dreams, Yang Lingyue got up first in the morning when it was just dawn, and stuffed some dead branches and rotten leaves into the campfire where only sparks were left. water to cook breakfast.

The breakfast of the siblings is still wild vegetable soup. Although a little salt is added, the taste is still astringent and bitter.At this time, Yang Lingyue was not as delicate as when she first came here. After adapting to the environment, she stuffed wild vegetable soup, including vegetables and soup, into her mouth, and then greeted Yang Mingda with a swipe of her mouth. Drill into the woods...

Since the siblings had no tools for chopping firewood, they could only break some dry trunks and branches. Although it was a bit slow, the siblings had to pack up a load of firewood. In the process of collecting firewood, they were lucky to find the rotten wood growing on it. The fungus on the table, and some edible fungi, if you look at it together, there are as many as a basket.

When the siblings went to the market to sell firewood, they brought the basket of fungus and fungi with them. As a result, no one wanted the firewood, and the fungus and edible fungi sold for a good price.

"Sister, what should I do with the firewood?" Yang Mingda pointed to the firewood that no one cared about when Yang Lingyue was counting the copper coins with a smile on his face.

"Throw it here, no one wants it anyway."

Yang Lingyue counted the copper coins in her hand and found that she could buy a few liters of grain, so she couldn't help being excited, and smiled at Yang Mingda. "Let's pick up mountain treasures and sell them... Slowly save up, maybe your life will improve, and in the future, there will be enough money to send you to a private school." As for her, since she had just been admitted to university before time travel , can be regarded as a cultural person, and most of the private schools do not accept female students, so here, she should continue to be her "illiterate".
