Chapter 12: don’t worry about it

Chapter 12 Don’t worry about it

Su Li brought the water to Chen Xiang's house, and even helped her pour it into the water tank.

Chen Xiang kept nodding to express his thanks, Su Li waved his hand indifferently.

"You don't have to do this. Our two families are neighbors to begin with. We should take care of each other when we have something to do."

Chen Xiang nodded again and again.

Su Li met He Yufeng as soon as he came out of Chen Xiang's house.

He Yufeng frowned when he saw Su Li coming out of Chen Xiang's house, thinking that Su Li must be looking for trouble again.

He Yufeng said coldly: "In the future, don't go to other people's houses to make trouble. It's not easy for anyone now. What you do will only make everyone's life more and more difficult."

Su Li just gave He Yufeng a supercilious look. She didn't bully others. Is it really okay to put a **** bowl on her head without knowing the truth?

But Su Li was too lazy to explain to He Yufeng, so she went home with a bamboo basket.

He Yufeng looked at Su Li's back and frowned, then quickly followed.

As soon as He Yufeng came home, the two little guys kept surrounding him, and Su Li heard flattering sounds from time to time.

"Father, this is a gift from us."

He Dahu and He Erhu took out a straw grasshopper from their pockets.

He Yufeng took the grasshoppers, rubbed their heads and said: "What a good boy, thank you, Dad."

Su Li took a look at the grasshopper, and in the afternoon she saw these two little guys making grasshoppers together. She thought they were playing by herself, but she didn't expect it to be a gift for He Yufeng.

Su Li started to cook after packing up. Fortunately, He Yufeng was not a messy person. After selling the wild pork, he bought some rice, brown rice and flour, otherwise there would be no rice for the pot.

Su Li was busy working in the kitchen, and He Yufeng also followed. He was afraid that Su Li would not feed them if he didn't work!

"Is there anything I can do?"

"Go and wash the wild vegetables for me!"

Su Li unceremoniously ordered He Yufeng to come, anyway, everyone has to eat, so why do some work?

Su Li swiftly picked up a piece of meat and began to cut it. She specially asked He Yufeng to keep this meat. The children in the family are growing up, so it is impossible not to eat meat every day.

"How did your hands and feet become so nimble?"

He Yufeng's voice sounded abruptly behind Su Li, and her hand slipped, almost cutting off her fingers.

Su Li calmed down and said: "The numbness of my hands and feet mainly depends on my mood."

This He Yufeng must have seen something, right?

Su Li was a little flustered, she was afraid of being splashed with blood!

He Yufeng didn't ask any more questions, Su Li quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

There were not many ingredients at home, so Su Li fried a wild vegetable, a meat dish, and baked meatloaf for the two little guys.

"How much money did the wild boar sell for today?" Su Li asked.

He Yufeng paused when he picked up the vegetables, and looked up at Su Li with indifferent eyes: "I can't give you the money this time, and the old house has to pay monthly money!"

Now the prey is getting harder and harder to hunt. The nearby prey have all been hunted. If you enter the deep mountains, it will be more dangerous and the time to go out will be longer. He is worried about the two children.

Su Li knew that He Yufeng had misunderstood her meaning, and explained: "Don't be nervous, I'm not asking you for money, I just want to ask if you have enough money for your mother, she came to ask for money, I let her come to Time to get it again."

He Yufeng thought that Su Li would make a fuss, but he didn't expect her to be so calm. This abnormality made him unable to adapt for a while.

Besides, Su Li didn't care about whether the monthly money was enough, she only cared about whether she could get what she wanted, even if he was exhausted because of the monthly money, she wouldn't even blink.

"You don't need to worry about this."

"As long as you have the numbers."

Since He Yufeng said that, Su Li didn't say anything more.

After the meal, Su Li walked around several times, and didn't stop until she was dripping with sweat.

After dark, they each went back to their rooms to sleep. He Yufeng took He Dahu and He Erhu brothers to sleep in the east room, and Su Li slept in the west room alone.

Su Li is very grateful to the original owner for this, because what she did gave her a separate space, at least she doesn't have to worry about being discovered when she enters the space.

Su Li entered the space. After careful consideration, she decided to exchange benzoin for chili.

Peppers haven’t appeared here yet. When she was cooking for the past two days, she found that there were very few seasonings, and it wouldn’t taste good without good seasonings, so she decided to grow peppers in the backyard.

Chili can be made into dried chili, chili noodles, chili sauce, etc. She should be able to make a fortune relying on chili.

Just do it, Su Li pulled out the benzoin planted in the black soil to exchange for chili.

the next day.

Su Li got up early in the morning, and when she got up, He Yufeng was returning from carrying water outside.

Su Li looked at the water tank in the kitchen. The water tank that she used almost the same last night is now full. I have to say that He Yufeng has done a good job in this, and the work that should be done is still on the job.

He Yufeng was a little surprised to see Su Li get up so early. People who used to sleep until the sun was up, now wake up at dawn?

The sun doesn’t come out from the west today, does it? He Yufeng couldn't help but look up at the sky.

Su Lidang didn't see his expression, and said: "I cleared up the backyard yesterday, and I plan to plant some things. It's best if I can sell them for money. It's fine if I can't keep them for myself."

Once you come, you will be safe. Although this family is poor and poor, it is a shelter after all.

He Yufeng had already heard from He Dahu and He Erhu last night about Su Li working in the backyard. He was usually busy hunting and had no time to take care of it.

After all, the monthly expenses are so high that growing crops can’t support him at all, so he can only risk his life to go hunting in the mountains.

"Yes, I see!" He Yufeng responded.

He doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in Su Li's gourd, but it seems to be changing for the better. As long as she treats the child well, he can bear other things.

After breakfast, Su Li went to the backyard to plant peppers, and when she came back from planting the peppers, she saw He Yufeng reclaiming all the land in the front yard.

He Dahu and He Erhu each held a sickle in their hands to help cut the weeds. Su Li saw that they were not proficient in their techniques. It seemed that they had just learned it, but the expressions on their faces were very serious.

Su Li couldn't help but sighed, as expected, children from poor families were already in charge of the family.

Su Li stepped forward and snatched the sickle from their hands: "Give it to me! Go play while you play."

He Dahu and He Erhu looked at Su Li's busy back, and they whispered to each other.
