Chapter 129 Village Life 1
Chapter 129 Village Life 1
After cutting the bamboo and bringing it home, Yun Chu and his friends learned how to weave bamboo.
Everyone has experience because they have woven straw hats before.
It took me a whole morning to learn how to weave a winnowing basket. Although it was ugly, I succeeded.
It takes three days to weave the winnowing basket, and then you can learn other bamboo weaving skills.
Ten days later, the bamboo weaving task was completed.
Li Zhonglun took the extra bamboo weavings to the town to sell. Because his craftsmanship was average, the price was not expensive.
Earned thirty-one cents.
After that, everyone was busy with their own things.
Yun Chu was busy in the space every day, farming and harvesting.
February came in a blink of an eye, and a lot of weeds grew in the wheat fields.
The Li family went to weed the fields.
After three days of weeding, all the weeds in the field were gone.
The weather started to get warmer, and Yun Chu was thinking about becoming a peddler.
But she is just a child, so it seems impossible for her to be a peddler.
Dad and my brother are all studying to prepare for the imperial examination in two years.
Moreover, it seems that it is not a big deal for a scholar to become a peddler.
Yun Chu sighed, it seemed that his plan had to be put on hold.
By mid-February, we start to commingle the rice fields, and by mid-March, we start to plant the rice seedlings.
In two days, all the seedlings in the two acres of land were planted.
In the spring, Yun Chu started running towards the mountains.
When I went down the mountain, I carried a basket of wild vegetables.
Before reaching home, Yun Chu was stopped by Yan Hong, the daughter of a butcher in the village.
"Sister Yunchu, is your eldest cousin married?" Yan Hong asked in a low voice.
This is because I have taken a fancy to the eldest brother.
"No marriage, but my eldest brother may not get married in the next three years, because the master has calculated his fortune before, saying that if he gets married before the age of 23, he will be unlucky in marriage."
After hearing the word "Keqin", Yan Hong stopped asking questions.
Although Li Zhenhui looks good, he is not good at marrying, which is a big problem.
It only means that she and Li Zhenhui are not destined to be together.
Yun Chu returned home and went straight to Li Zhenhui's room.
"Brother, I have something to tell you."
"Chu Chu, do you want to do a mission?"
"No, it was when I came back that someone asked if you were married..." Yun Chu explained what happened, "Brother, you won't blame me and say that you are unlucky in marriage because of early marriage, right?"
Li Zhenhui smiled and said, "That's right. With our current status, it's not easy to talk about marriage."
Moreover, it seems that the women in this village have nothing to talk about with him. He would like to find someone who has the same interests and hobbies as him and can be a good companion.
At night, Yun Chu told the reporter that a woman had come to ask about marriage.
The elders of the Li family looked at the children.
Li Zhenhui, Li Yunxi and Li Yunshan are all old enough to get married.
It’s okay for men, it doesn’t matter if they are born a few years later.
But Li Yunxi and Li Yunshan need to think about this.
Pan Qian said, "As parents, you should think carefully about the marriage of Xijie'er and Shanjie'er."
It can be delayed this year. By next year, Sister Xi will be eighteen years old.
With everything from meeting someone to getting engaged, Xi Jie'er's marriage might have to be delayed until she is nineteen.
They didn't care, but the gossips in the village were fearful that it would affect Sister Xi's reputation.
Li Zhonghuan and others nodded and said they would consider it.
After a night's rest, Yun Chu went to the mountains to dig herbs again.
Yun Chu prepared all these herbs. Half a month later, Yun Chu went to the town carrying the herbs.
There are two pharmacies in the town, Renhetang and Yangchuntang.
After asking around, I found out that both pharmacies are quite kind.
Yun Chu went to Yangchun Hall which was closer.
Doctor Lu saw the medicinal herbs in Yun Chu’s backpack at a glance.
"Young lady, selling herbs?"
"Yes."
Doctor Lu came out from the counter and took out Yun Chu's medicinal materials to examine them.
Yunchu carried three kinds of medicinal herbs in his backpack: Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, and Gastrodia elata.
Doctor Lu said, "The herbs are well prepared. Did you prepare them yourself?"
"Correct."
Doctor Lu asked, "Which village is the young lady from? Judging from her accent, she doesn't sound like a local."
Yun Chu introduced his identity.
When Doctor Lu heard about the exile of his family, he sighed in his heart: It is really pitiful that such a young child has to collect herbs to make money by himself.
After weighing the herbs, Doctor Lu said, "The purchase price of Atractylodes macrocephala and Ziling is five coins per ounce, and the purchase price of Gastrodia elata is seven coins per ounce."
"Atractylodes macrocephala and Ziling weigh a total of 4.4 jin, and Gastrodia elata weighs 3.7 jin."
"Four hundred and seventy-nine coins in total."
Doctor Lu gave 480 points and said, "If you have more medicinal materials in the future, you can send them here."
"Recently, we are short of Eucommia ulmoides, Dipsacus asper, Scrophularia ningpoensis, and Achyranthes bidentata. You can collect more."
"Okay, Dr. Lu."
Yun Chu sold the herbs and went home, but he didn't expect that just two quarters of an hour after leaving Shuiquan Town, he met a guard who was running for his life on a horse with a child on his back.
There were five masked men in black riding horses, chasing them.
The guards also saw Yun Chu and quickly changed direction and fled in other directions, fearing that these killers would kill innocent people indiscriminately.
However, one of the killers rushed directly towards Yun Chu, wanting to kill him to silence him.
Originally, Yun Chu didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, but now that the killer wants to kill her, don't blame her.
Yun Chu took out the talisman and threw it at the killer. The killer was knocked away and then burned to death by the fire talisman.
Yun Chu put on a swift wind talisman, chased after them, and used the talisman to kill the remaining four killers.
Cui Xing looked at Yun Chu in amazement.
"Thank you, little fairy, for saving my life."
"They wanted to kill me, so I fought back, not just to save you."
"My dear fairy, I am Cui Xing, a guard beside King Kang. King Kang received a secret order to bring his family back to the capital secretly. Unexpectedly, he encountered an assassination on the way back to the capital."
The prince brought only fifty guards with him, and there were a total of three hundred assassins.
There are so many people, and they are well-trained and work in harmony. They must be from the military camp.
King Kang knew he could not escape, so he wanted to preserve his bloodline. In the end, he let ten guards break through the siege and escape with the young master.
But the other party didn't want to let them go and sent twenty people to hunt them down.
Of the ten guards, he was the only one still alive.
"The rest of the Kangwang Mansion's family members and the Kangwang may have been killed, leaving only the young master Qin Jin."
"Little fairy, could you please take care of my little prince for a while? I want to go back and collect the body of the prince and others." The prince's body cannot be left exposed in the wilderness.
Moreover, he would bring the prince's body back to the capital to file a complaint.
Ask the emperor to find the real murderer.
Yun Chu didn't know much about the situation in the court and didn't know whether King Kang was a good person or a bad person.
"How old is your little boy?"
"The young master was born on the seventh day of the sixth lunar month in the eighty-third year of An Zhao." He didn't know if he could come back alive this time.
He's still two months away from turning four. He's so young.
"Okay, I'll accept you, young master. I'm not a fairy. My name is Li Yunchu, and my grandfather is Li Pinghui."
"But is it Li Pinghui, the Minister of Revenue?"
"Yes."
Cui Xing nodded to show that he understood, "Thank you Miss Li for your help."
Yun Chu took out a pill and gave it to Cui Xing, "This is a healing medicine, you can take it."
His body was covered with wounds, and she was afraid that he had bled to death before he found King Kang's body.
"Thank you, Miss Li." Cui Xing took the medicine and swallowed it directly. "I'll take my leave now. Miss Li should leave soon too."
"it is good."
Cui Xing left at full speed.
After Cui Xing left, Yun Chu found the five horses and put them into the space.
As for the child, he was sleeping soundly and was placed in the space by Yun Chu.
