The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family - #432 - Chapter 432: Calf (two in one

“Mother, you can keep the bank notes for me. I will ask Uncle Luo to help He Zhongren to send a message tomorrow, just say that the shop, we have made a reservation. Although we know that it is Xue Zongqi’s property, what is the trouble?” I’ve been hired several times, and it’s not easy to pass him, so let him earn the middleman fee, hehe!” Yan Yu’s smile didn’t stop when he called back.

  Looking at her like this, Li Xuemei was also happy in her heart, and said with a smile: “I can buy a shop, it’s a blessing for you.”

“There are all of them. I am happy that the ginseng is sold at a high price, and I am also happy that the shop can finally be bought.” Yan Yu smiled: “I know that ginseng is sold because of the honor of the eldest brother, and the concubine said It’s less. In fact, in Guanzhou, the price is at its peak. No matter whether they know that buying ginseng in the south is different from that in the north, I have to say those things. It’s not you to take advantage of others quietly. Girlfriend style.”

  Li Xuemei nodded with a smile.

  Her daughter is like this, she has a book in her heart, and she makes money transparently and innocently.

   “Maybe Eldest Brother Shizi went back and told her about the box, or maybe he just wanted to take care of the family that Elder Brother Shizi made friends with.” After Yan Yu calmed down, she gradually figured it out. “In short, we felt her kindness and accepted it. Hee hee, 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 is a business stall in the front and back, separated by a wall in the middle. The side next to the bamboo stove is clean. Our family will live here. Count the days. Mother, you should be next year. I have inquired about the birth around February, and good stable women have to ventilate in advance to set a date, but when it comes to our rural areas, people are not very happy to come, so we might as well move to Fucheng after the new year…” Yan Yu Obviously, he had thought about it for a long time, and he said it clearly and logically.

  Li Xuemei touched her stomach, as if responding to her, a bulging ball touched her palm.

   “Sanya, then let’s go to your sister Erya’s house to live for a while.”

  Yan Yu: …

   “Mother, why are you being silly again.” She muttered.

  It’s nothing, I just want to make myself happy.

  Li Xuemei gradually stopped laughing, and asked with concern: “Is everything ready? I don’t know if I will be walking in the mountains for a few days. Bring more food. Don’t be reluctant to take more of those spirit snake meat.”

  She thought about it, bit her lips and said, “Why don’t you take our iron crossbow…”

  Yan Yu took her hand and shook it gently: “You don’t need it, an ordinary bamboo crossbow is enough, you don’t worry about the strength of your daughter, and the speed of the donkey and the three treasures.

   It’s all said to go and feel the situation, there will be no danger. “

  …

  Yan Yu did prepare a lot of food.

  Because of herself, she also considered Uncle Qi’s appetite.

   There is definitely no shortage of wild animals in the mountains, but the purpose of their trip is not to go hunting in the mountains, but to go over the mountains to Beirong, so try not to waste time on the road.

  The reason why she couldn’t wait another day was because she found that the snow on the ground had shown signs of being civilized. Think about it in another way. After days of heavy snow, it finally cleared up. Will Bei Rong graze cattle and sheep to find food?

  Yan Yu thought, probably yes.

   “Uncle Qi, stop and eat something.” Yan Yu shouted.

   Qi Si responded and got off the cow. The first thing he did was not to eat by himself, but to find some fodder nearby, and feed the three treasures first…

  Sambo ate some to save face, and then walked around by himself wagging his tail, picking and eating a piece of green grass that was still left in the mountains.

  The donkey also followed suit, walking around and nibbling on the nearby greenery.

  Yan Yuzhen…

  Hundreds of secrets and one sparse.

  She only brought food for people, but forgot that the three treasures also need to eat.

   Fortunately, Fourth Uncle Qi didn’t think about this, and he thought it was enough for them to eat what they had. He couldn’t tell how much they ate, whether the grass was eaten by cows and donkeys, whether the frequency of pulling was right, etc…

  Yan Yu secretly ordered the **** to fall freely.

   Some eat and some pull.

   In Uncle Qi’s eyes, it is very realistic.

  Standing around, he rushed out, and after a while, he turned back with brisk steps, with a rabbit in his mouth.

  Qi Si laughed out loud, and picked up happily.

  Set up a fire, fill the pot with snow, and the snow will turn into water. While it is still hot, it will be used to clean the peeled rabbit meat. After washing, it will be roasted on the fire.

  Yan Yu rubbed the rabbit skin with snow to remove as much blood as possible, then spread the skin with branches, baked it by the fire, and put it away after it felt warm and dry.

Pour the clean water brought by the two into the pot, wait for the water to boil, throw some dried vegetables down, the leaves of the vegetables will stretch slowly, and become soft due to the absorption of water, and put the frozen snake meat into the pot as long as A pinch of salt becomes an irresistible delicacy.

  They brought a lot of dry food, tore it up and dipped it in soup, and the two of them started to eat with a sigh of relief.

   After taking a sip of hot soup, my whole body warmed up.

   Waiting for the two of them to fill their stomachs with broth and dry food for five or six minutes, the rabbit is roasted, and the two of them and the dog start to eat.

  Qi Si eats the most, Yan Yu is next, and Gou Zi is at the bottom.

  After the meal was over, Qi Si and Yan Yu tidied up neatly. They smoothed the place where the fire was lit with the remaining snow around them. They didn’t even need to wash the pots.

   They have been walking in the mountains for two days.

   During the day, the two took turns to sit and watch, and at night when they were resting, they took turns to watch the night.

   All of them are physically strong, and they have cows and donkeys for transportation. This kind of hard work is really nothing.

   At noon on the third day, they finally walked out of the mountain.

  The vast grassland was in front of them.

  The white snow melted, revealing large expanses of blue and yellow.

  …

   “There are so many cattle and sheep!” Qi Si said roughly, his eyes shining.

   At this time, Qi Si and Yan Yu had been searching for two days on the grassland, Huang Tian paid off, and they finally found them!

  According to Yan Yu’s speculation, they should now be in the middle zone between Huju and Longxing, with the mountains as the vertical axis, and the horizontal depth is about a hundred miles deep.

  The two of them were lying on the ground, using the bulge of the soil to cover their figures.

   Gou Zhu also obediently put his head on the ground, wagging his tail regularly.

  Sambo and the donkey were left behind a pile of stones so as not to show their whereabouts.

  Yan Yu counted back and forth several times.

   Didn’t even count how many cattle and sheep there were.

   In short, enough, enough!

  Sheep are sheep, with gray curly hair, each of them looks like moving ash balls, grazing leisurely.

  Cows are very different from Guannei cattle, most of them are reddish in color, bulls look tall, cows have short legs, and some variegated ones with white, black and white flowers on their bodies, all black…

  Yan Yu couldn’t help swallowing, no matter what flower, the meat is the same.

   “There are not many people grazing, Fourth Uncle Qi, great opportunity!” Yan Yu said.

  Qi Si clenched the stick tightly in his hand, and said in a deep voice, “Xiaoer, if you say you want to attack us, then we will.”

Yan Yu: “There are too many cattle and sheep, we can’t take that many away. If we rush directly, we are afraid that they will have a long memory in the future. Be wary of us. I think it’s better to come secretly. It’s best to steal a few without anyone noticing. Walk.”

  She thought about not being able to scare the snakes. With so many cattle and sheep, if you lose a few of them, they might not even count them.

   But if exposed, it will not be so convenient to come back in the future.

   “Then what should we do?” Qi Si asked.

  Yan Yu stared at the cattle and sheep, and slowly said: “Start at them first, and see where they return at night.”

   First determine Beirong’s camp before thinking about it.

  …

  If the night in the prairie is summer, it is probably beautiful, and you should be able to see the twinkling stars in the sky when you look up.

   But at this moment, Yan Yu is not beautiful at all.

Snowing!

  The wind was not too weak, it was whistling, and it smeared her face every now and then.

  Fortunately, it was cold, and people in Xiao’an Village were used to wearing masks. Both Yan Yu and Qi Si wore masks, only showing their eyes outside.

   Despite the wind and snow blowing, the two cats lay motionless behind the stone.

  The body is cold, but the heart is hot.

  Here is a gathering place of Bei Rong, so close to the enemy, Yan Yu feels his adrenaline is soaring crazily, really, so exciting!

  They followed all the way, not daring to get too close when the sky was still bright, and approached carefully at night.

   Therefore, it is only through the tents to judge how many Beirong there are.

   There are more than a dozen tents, large and small.

   If it is calculated based on ten people living in each tent, there should be hundreds of Beirong here.

  But Yan Yu felt that there must not be so many in reality.

  How to steal cattle and sheep without anyone noticing is really a headache.

  On such a windy and snowy day, Beirong only left a few people outside to guard, and the others went back to the tent early.

  Yan Yu originally wanted to observe for a day or two, and find the best time to start.

  But tonight’s snowstorm is really a god-sent opportunity.

   Don’t move at this time, God really came to clean up the traces for them.

   “Uncle Qi.” Yan Yu’s voice was muffled through the mask.

   Qi Si moved, and a few wisps of snow fell from his hat.

“You wait here, I’ll touch over and have a look.” She knew that Uncle Qi would definitely not agree, so she said again: “Uncle Qi, listen to me, I am small and inconspicuous, Gouzhu will go there with me, don’t you The movement is right here, if I am discovered, I will run back, Fourth Uncle Qi, you are ready to meet me at any time.”

  Qi Si gave a muffled hum.

  The two had fought side by side, and he believed in Xiao Er.

   There is a raised soil bag behind the two people, where the three treasures and the donkey are hidden.

  Gou lived in front to lead the way, and Yan Yu followed it to hide in the east, moving forward constantly by means of stones, dirt bumps, depressions….

  Finally walked outside the fence, Yan Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

  By taking advantage of the body shape of the herd of cattle to cover her, Yan Yu took note of everything she saw more carefully.

  The two Bei Rong guards were muttering something, and then one of them went back to the tent and didn’t come out for a long time.

  The remaining one seemed to be bored, took two mouthfuls from the water bag on his waist, and heard the hissing sound, most likely it was wine?

  The fence surrounding the cattle was inserted from the inside, and Yan Yu gave orders to Gou Zhu in a low voice.

   Gouzhu crawled into the gap under the fence.

  Yan Yu held her breath, for fear that the herd of cows would riot.

   Fortunately, everything is calm, and the herd hardly responds.

   Gouzhu stood upright, bit the wooden stake, and shook his head decisively.

  The angle was very suitable, the wooden plug was bitten off almost instantly, the sound was barely audible, and under the cover of the wind and snow, everything was silent.

  She opened the door in no hurry.

   Instead, like a hunter, waiting patiently.

  The Bei Rong who was guarding here finally couldn’t stand it anymore.

  Yawned, took another sip of wine, swayed slightly and walked towards the tent, repeating a few syllables briefly in his mouth, Yan Yu quickly judged that this was most likely a name.

  He is calling someone.

   It should be changing shifts!

  Yan Yu clenched her fists, waiting for the moment when he walked into the tent.

  Open the felt curtain…

It’s now!

  Yan Yu decisively pushed open the fence gate, rushed in with one stride, dragged the nearest calf and ran away.

  She pinched the calf’s mouth, no matter how hard it tried, it couldn’t break free.

   It’s a joke, she can’t handle a grown cow, but she can’t handle a calf?

  The cow was robbed of its calf, and stood up suddenly, howling and chasing after it, and the lying cow stood up in a large area.

   “Hold on, close the door.” Yan Yu heard the movement behind, and gave orders while running.

   Hurry up, she’s almost there.

   Just for a while.

   Behind him came the sound of a cow crashing against a fence.

pretty!

  Yan Yu praised in her heart!

  Wheezing and panting, he finally ran back and hid behind the dirt bag. Yan Yu immediately handed the calf to Fourth Uncle Qi, who tied it neatly with hemp rope, not forgetting to wrap its mouth around it as well.

   Several Bei Rong came out to check.

  The fence gate is firmly inserted.

   But the mess of the herd is very unusual.

  They vigilantly held the bows and crossbows in their hands, and several of them lit torches and began to count the cattle and sheep.

   One calf missing!

  By the time they found out that a calf was missing, the wind and snow had already obliterated the footprints outside the fence.

  Someone found shallow footprints in the fence.

   “It’s a wolf!”

   “Damn it, who’s on the watch, can’t they hear the howling of wolves?”

   “It’s too windy to hear.”

   “Look at that! What a wolf!”

   “If there are a few more people to guard, the wolves may come again…”

  …

  Hold on to plug the door and run away immediately.

   It lurks in the flock.

  No one cares about the bleating of the sheep.

  After Bei Rong finished checking the cattle, he came to check the sheep again. It took the opportunity to slip back and got out from under the cattle fence.

  This is the story of the wolf footprints discovered by Beirong.

   Then it was also the one who was called out to be a wolf. Its vigorous figure was extremely hazy under the snowstorm tonight, and Beirong’s preconceived ideas made them just muddle through.

  Yan Yu’s whole body was tense, and she was ready to run for her life.

  The action just now, even though it was a temporary idea, has passed through her mind several times.

  The worst result is to be found by Bei Rong.

  She asked herself if she could bear such a result.

  The answer is yes.

   It’s a big deal to run away, let alone such a windy and snowy day, even if there is no wind and no snow, how can Bei Rong catch up with her.

   But fortunately, these Beibei didn’t mean to delve into it.

  In their view, being attacked by wolves at night is a common occurrence, the only difference is whether they let the wolves succeed.

   It was obviously unlucky tonight, and a calf was taken away.

   Slowly over time.

  Many torches on the Beirong side were extinguished, and only two remained.

  The field of vision is blocked, and no matter how hard you see it, the other party will also be unable to see them clearly.

   Gou Zhuzao sneaked back and clung to Yan Yu’s side, secretly transferring heat.

  Yan Yu’s heart, which he had been holding up all the time, slowly fell back.

   “Uncle Qi, let’s go.” Yan Yushen led the donkey one foot at a time, and looked back as he walked, making sure that the dirt bag behind him could cover them for a little longer.

  Qi Si holds the calf under one arm, and holds the rein of San Bao with the other hand, following Xiao Er’s footsteps…

  This chapter has been revised. The original version considered the fun, but it didn’t fit the reality, and the geeks themselves were quite entangled, so someone suggested it, and I changed this version overnight~! The chapter name is wrong, quack~
