Yi Yang was going to be married in a few more years. At the start of the year, the scene of his thin and weak little sister lying in his arms breathing was carved into his memory, her black and white eyes slightly narrowed, as if she had thought of something happy with a smile on her face.Mu Rousang was concerned about the fruit tree and asked, "Brother, are we still going to the mountain tomorrow?"
Mu Jinzhi could not like his aunt"s family anymore, "Un, since my aunt did not mention that I"m going back, then we will naturally do what we need to do. Furthermore, I only have three days of rest every month, I"ve already wasted one day today, so I"ll have to do something for my family tomorrow."
Mu Rousang deeply thought that since they were extremely close relatives with G.o.dly horses, they hated dog skin paste the most.
"Oh right, brother, why did you agree to teach yang-ge how to read! Don"t you love your sister anymore? " Mu Rousang"s heart and liver were injured.
Although Mu Rousang was not feeling well, and wished that she could throw that family of hers into the sky, she could only endure as long as Mu Jinzhi had Graduation.
"Little sister, don"t be angry, yang-ge has pampered and grown up ever since she was young. Eldest Aunt is afraid of melting when she"s in her mouth, holding it in her palm for fear of falling off. Little sister, if yang-ge knows more about it …"
Her brother"s stomach went black. She thought about how happy Mu Yiyang and Mulberry was when they fought on the stage. Furthermore, if Mu Yiyang was able to read well and obtain a woman with a better family background, she would already be able to foresee how wonderful Mulberry would be for the rest of her life.
Mu Rousang had achieved perfection, and there was nothing more enjoyable than dragging a small stool around to watch a play with a melon seed. The two siblings circled the village. When the two of them pa.s.sed by, the adults were already there. It turned out that the little boy had come to visit relatives in the village.
The matter was quickly resolved. It was nothing more than an apology or a loss of silver coins, but Mu Qingxi still searched left and right, calling him her son repeatedly. Her darling, it caused Mu Rousang"s gooseb.u.mps to fall all over the ground.
Due to the fact that his aunt"s family came, Mu Yun rarely opened his mouth to stay for dinner, "Jin Jin, Sang girl, your aunt"s family rarely comes, so you came today to stay for dinner. Oh right, I heard that your family collected a lot of food, so when I went back to borrow some for uncle to spend the winter, it became colder and colder."
Mu Rousang was so angry she almost flew up, "Uncle, we don"t have much food, we still need to take care of brother and me next year"s rations." She didn"t want to give him a grain of rice.
Mu Yun raised his eyelids, "You money loser, I"m talking to your brother. It"s your fault for talking so much."
Mu Rousang was so angry that she was about to retort, but Mu Jinzhi pinched her little hand, "It"s just nice, previously I saw my uncle"s house collecting quite a lot of rice, and my Brother and sister still has no land at home. How about I make the decision to use 10 Jin of corn and uncle"s 10 Jin of white rice!"
Mu Yun slapped his cheek, "Jin Jin, although uncle"s family has a lot of people, you see, your aunt"s health is not good, your eldest cousin sister and third cousin have a lot of food too, and your brother yang-ge, ah, is more difficult to raise.
Sis, ah! Mu Rousang lifted his own leg. Forget it, she wouldn"t be able to kick her! "Yo, uncle, you speak too lightly. Why don"t you use some silver coins to exchange for it? Everyone in the village is saying that uncle"s family"s food is top-notch."
"Also, Uncle, my Feng"e Sis is going to get married in a few more years. This wife of mine has yet to get married, Uncle doesn"t want to get any more dowry silver." Reputation, the reputation of a girl was destined to marry well.
After Mu Yun heard this, he felt aggrieved. His entire family had suffered under Mu Rousang"s hand, if word were to spread, she would not be able to go overboard. She was only five years old, if the adults heard this, no one would care about her being a wild child. "Alright, Eldest Uncle just casually said that. Oh right, do you have any fat rabbits at home? Send one to Eldest Uncle later. Your Eldest Aunt will be returning to the county city a day later, and there won"t be any good dishes at home."
Mu Rousang wanted to reject her, but Mu Jinzhi stood out first, "Aunt, Uncle said that you like wild rabbits, your nephew will go to the Tian Hu family to sell one tomorrow."
"So it turns out that Mu Qingxi was already proud of Mu Yun"s family for relying on her to survive after entering the courtyard, and was extremely ashamed of her elder brother"s shamelessness. She didn"t know how to hide it either." "Little sister naturally knows what big brother is thinking, but a wild rabbit isn"t something that can be obtained immediately, if not, in the future, when big brother Jin"er gets it, someone else can send it to the county."
Mu Yun was afraid that the neighboring house would have heard his sister"s words earlier. Now, seeing that his sister was unhappy, he explained uncomfortably: "Good girl, it"s rare for you to come back, brother saw that you liked it so he asked his nephew if you still have anything at home."
Mu Rousang rolled her eyes at him, "Uncle, my brother is only eight years old this year!" Can an eight-year-old child go hunting in the mountains? How shameless, the world is going down!
"Go, go to the side! You money-losing deal, go to the side!" Mu Yun really didn"t like Mu Rousang. In his eyes, a family still relied on men, and a daughter who was raised was someone else"s. Mu Qingxi was extremely unhappy, and even her voice became sharp. What do you mean by that! " Could it be that she was also a money loser?
"Uncle, the money loser you are talking about is my little sister!" Mu Jinzhi was unhappy. "Besides, Feng"e Sis and Little Sister Feng Chai are watching us too."
Seeing Mu Fenge"s ashen face, Mu Rousang knew that her own Cheap Great Sisters was not in a good mood. Mu Rousang wanted to laugh, could this be considered lifting a stone to smash her own foot?
Finally, it was time for dinner. This time, her uncle did not say that the woman was a money loser, and everyone ate around a table. Fortunately, the siblings were used to eating big fish and big meat, and ignored the chopsticks that Eldest Uncle and his family flew around the table, picking up dishes they liked and eating slowly.
After dinner, the two siblings took their leave. Mu Jinzhi held Mu Rousang"s small hand as they walked down the peaceful slope, but when he heard Mu Rou"s sigh, he said, "Little sister is so tired!"
She gave him a sweet smile, "Brother, don"t be tired tomorrow. We"ve finally made it through this afternoon. It"s even more tiring than picking up firewood on the mountain." He could only hope that his aunt"s family would return home quickly and not cause too much trouble.
Mu Jinzhi"s guilty mood dropped by quite a bit, "Sister, it"s all your fault, I didn"t protect you well!" Being too young was a hard injury. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn"t avoid the so-called relatives bullying the two.
She shook her brother"s arm, "Brother, we don"t need to go tomorrow. It"s only today. How about we go up early tomorrow and spend the day on the mountain?" It was better than facing her uncle and aunt"s family. It was not that she wanted to be an ostrich, it was because she couldn"t win against them. There was no adult supporting her family!
Hearing her words, Mu Jinzhi felt that it was a good idea, "Okay, tomorrow brother will help you find more fruits!" He didn"t think too much about it. He felt that his sister had worked hard to manage the family and hadn"t eaten anything good. Thinking of this, he began to cherish his sister even more.
The two of them went back to wash up and sleep. When Mu Jinzhi finally fell asleep, Mu Rousang ran into the s.p.a.ce in a flash and took a look at the acres of cotton that he had planted, and the results were out.
Calculating the time, the cotton would be harvested in two days outside the s.p.a.ce. He then looked at the chickens and pigs reared in the pasture, threw out quite a lot of fodder, and went to sleep. He thought to himself that next year would be much better for his family.
The sky was hazy and Mu Jinzhi had just woken up. After taking a shower, he woke Mu Rousang up and went to the kitchen to take out the noodles he made last night, and made some steamed buns to steam. Taking advantage of when Mu Jinzhi was busy, Mu Rousang took out the water filled bamboo tube and filled it with spatial water.
He thought about the money he had at home and asked Mu Jinzhi, "Brother, we have to dig a well to get here." She could not use spatial water everyday, so Mu Jinzhi still had to go to the river side to fetch some water after school everyday. Otherwise, it would attract attention.
Mu Jinzhi came out from the kitchen, "Mn, when I go back, brother will ask around in the village!" This matter had finally been settled. Mu Rousang intentionally let Mu Jinzhi decide on this matter from time to time.
"Brother, I think we should go and ask Qin Er!" The Qin Er"s family had helped Brother and sister a lot, so she would definitely be able to handle this matter.
It was agreed that the two would go up the mountain as soon as they finished their breakfast and packed up their things. Not long after the two of them left, Mu Fenge came over with her small waist, this time she came with Lin"s daughter-in-law.
"Elder sister E, this is elder brother Jin"s home?" Lin"s daughter-in-law looked at the courtyard that was two feet taller than the average manor house"s walls and asked her. She could even hear the cooing of chickens through the courtyard wall, so she was wondering if she could beat up her own wife.
In Mu Fenge"s heart, she was annoyed to wake her up so early in the morning, but this Lin"s daughter-in-law was a popular person in front of her first aunt.
"Yes, Rou Sang, open the door!" He yelled at the top of his lungs as he stood on his tiptoes outside the yard. After a few times, no one opened the door. The two of them found the door and looked. There was a lock on the door.
Lin"s daughter-in-law guessed that the two siblings were heading up the mountain, "It seems like no one is home, let"s go back first!"
She pulled Mu Fenge back to the village and then went to Mu Qingxi"s room to report this matter in detail.
Mu Qingxi thought that this matter wasn"t too urgent, as long as she could smoothly bring the two siblings away. Fortunately, the Mu Clan was an outsider and didn"t have any clansmen in the village.
In the afternoon, Lin"s daughter-in-law came three or four times but did not run into anyone.
Mu Rousang naturally did not know that someone had set their eyes on her, and she was happily roaming around the forest looking for treasure, but, her senior did not grow up in a ravine, other than Mu Er, she did not know about the Divine Horse Mushrooms, but this did not stop her from being in a good mood.
Mu Jinzhi saw that she was extremely happy, so he did not rush to chop firewood and brought her to walk around in the forest. Mu Rousang was currently fighting with Mu Jinzhi, but the reason why he recognized a peach tree was because Mu Jinzhi did not agree to dig it back.
Mu Rousang did not understand, "Brother, why not? Look, there are two stalks here, let"s dig one of the smaller stalks and go back!"
Mu Jinzhi patted her head, "These two trees are mature trees, the villagers all know. No one would say who would take the fruits, but if we dig the trees back, the villagers would naturally not agree."
So this was how it worked. "Then we"ll look around and see if there were any seedlings."
He did not understand why his sister wanted the peach tree. At this moment, he was at a loss, one side was because his sister liked it, and the other side was because everyone in this town knew that they could not grow the peach tree in their home. Even if they wanted to plant it, they had to plant it far away.
Mu Rousang was speechless after hearing his explanation. Thinking about how romantic her spring peach blossoms were, Mu Rousang decided that she had to change his way of thinking, "Bro, we are still kids, we have no adults. Besides, the teacher didn"t say anything, so his thinking was weird and messed up." It had nothing to do with her family. "Ah! Big Brother, you"re not thinking of marrying a wife are you?!" Mu Rousang teased him.
Mu Jinzhi"s face was red with embarra.s.sment, "Little Sister, Big Brother only wants to study hard and speed up his Graduation." In his heart, he would only think of other things if he could protect his sister.
Mu Rousang threw herself at him and grabbed her arm, "My brother is the best brother of the Great Yan Dynasty, no one can compare to him."
Mu Jinzhi laughed, his sister was the most adorable one, "Un, you like it? I"ll plant peach trees in front of and behind our house, and peaches and flowers will pair with poems under the peach-blossom tree in the spring.
"Brother, let"s hurry and find more seedlings!" She didn"t care about the season. With s.p.a.ce in her hands, how could she be afraid of dying? He had to get more fruits in order to live more easily! With flowers, fruits, food and money to earn, Mu Rousang was so happy that his mouth could not even close.
