Chapter 451 Why Can't You Eat It (Fifth Watch)

"Perhaps, he rewarded us secretly with this money." She continued.

"We dug him out of the python's belly and buried him so that his soul can rest in peace."

"We accept the burial fee he rewarded us with peace of mind, and he can settle his mind and rest in peace."

She said seriously.

Luo Fengtang thought about it and thought it made sense.

He nodded, knelt down beside the pit, and bowed to the person in the pit a few times.

"Rest in peace, I will come and burn some paper money for you in the Qingming Festival."

Yang Ruoqing followed suit a few times.

The two set up an unmarked grave, and washed the silver in the pool water.

Hide it in the basket you bring with you, and cover it with grass and leaves.

At this time, the sun was already westward.

It's time to head back to the village.

Yang Ruoqing glanced at the little white dog who was walking behind him.

"You have done a lot of credit for pulling out that bundle, and I will reward you as well," she said.

"What's your reward?" she said to herself.

"Why don't you go back to the village with me and help me take care of my home? I'll make delicious food for you every day?" she asked temptingly.

The little white dog took a step back warily.

Obviously he didn't want to go back to the village with her.

But it stood still and didn't go away, with its head up, its round eyes staring at her eagerly.

Its tail wags happily behind it, and it sticks out its pink tongue to lick its mouth from time to time.

Like hinting at her something.

Yang Ruoqing suddenly understood.

"Oh, I see," she said.

"You want to stay in the mountains and live a free life, but you also want to eat good food, right?" she asked.

Now, it jumped happily on the ground a few times.

Yang Ruoqing was happy.

Luo Fengtang, who was watching with great interest, said: "Grill this pheasant and reward it."

Luo Fengtang nodded: "Yeah!"

Cleanly plucked the hair and hollowed out the internal organs.

Yang Ruoqing skewered the grilled chicken with bamboo, and sprinkled salt and other seasonings brought from home on top.

While she was baking, the little white dog lay docilely at her feet.

She opened her big eyes and followed the roast chicken in her hand.

From time to time, there were a few excited humming sounds.

Yang Ruoqing smiled.

In no time, roast chicken that's charred on the outside and tender on the inside is ready.

If she hadn't been disgusted by the big python scene earlier, she might not be able to resist tearing off a chicken leg and chewing on it.

This time, I have no appetite at all.

"Tang Yazi, do you want to eat?" She asked Luo Fengtang who was cleaning kitchen knives and daggers by the pool.

Luo Fengtang shook her head.

Apparently, like her, she had no appetite.

Yang Ruoqing said to the little white dog at her feet: "You are lucky, this whole one belongs to you!"

A whole roast chicken was rewarded to the little white dog.

She said 'goodbye' to the little white dog, and then followed Luo Fengtang down the mountain.

Although this trip did not hunt musk deer and deer.

But this trip was a windfall.

On the way down the mountain, Luo Fengtang asked Yang Ruoqing: "What does Qing'er plan to use this money for?"

Yang Ruoqing said: "I want to open a restaurant and be the shopkeeper myself."

During this time, she has been thinking about these questions every day.

A family of five relies on six acres of land and tofu trading for food and clothing.

Solving food and clothing is no problem.

But I can't save any extra money.

It's nothing if it goes smoothly, but if it encounters natural disasters and man-made disasters.

There is no ability to resist risks at all.

Even if someone in the family is seriously ill, they can't afford the money.

This will not work!

Therefore, if you want to make more money, you must open up your business avenues, wider and wider.

"Food is the most important thing for the people. Open a restaurant and make your own characteristics."

"Tofu, sausages, and other new dishes and ingredients are all delivered to my restaurant."

"This way you can make more money." She analyzed.

Luo Fengtang listened carefully and thought about it.

"I see the idea of ​​opening a restaurant!" he said.

"Where does Qing'er plan to open the restaurant? In the town? Or the county seat? Or somewhere else?" He asked again.

Yang Ruoqing thought for a while: "This is the first restaurant, I want to be closer."

"It's also convenient to take care of the house." She said.

Luo Fengtang nodded: "Then let's go to the town to inquire in these two days, if there is a good store, we will sell it!"

At sunset, the two returned home.

Sun and Yang Huazhong sat in the backyard where firewood was piled up and weaved bamboo.

The wheat in the fields will not be harvested for more than three months.

Tofu trading can't be done during this period of time.

Daan has to go to school, his family, and the three pigs have to eat.

There are only a few hundred Wen left at home, so I have to make more bamboo weaves and sell them to supplement the family!

Seeing Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang entering the courtyard, Sun felt relieved.

"It's still early today, are you hungry? There is porridge warm in the pot, I'll warm it up for you."

Sun put down the bamboo weaving in her hand, got up and was about to go to the kitchen, but was stopped by Yang Ruoqing.

"Mother, don't be so busy, we can't eat anything right now, we'll eat later at night."

Yang Ruoqing said.

"After running for a day, why can't you eat?" Sun was surprised.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Really, mother is busy."

Luo Fengtang also came over and said to Sun: "Third Aunt, just listen to Qing'er."

Only then did Sun give up.

Seeing a pheasant and a rabbit in Luo Fengtang's hands, the woman was very happy.

"It's a good harvest today. This rabbit can be sold for tens of pennies," she said.

Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang looked at each other, and they both smiled.

"Mother, we don't sell rabbits and pheasants for money," she said.

"Why?" Sun asked.

A few years ago, the family accumulated a fortune of six taels of silver, and every three days there was a regular deposit of tofu products.

It is not uncommon for the game to be sold for no money, and it is common for families to keep their own teeth for sacrifice.

But this time...

Yang Ruoqing saw Sun's doubts, and said with a smile: "Mother, Tang Yazi and I will pick up these hares and pheasants later."

"It's cooked, send a bowl to Uncle Chang Geng, Uncle Daniu and the others."

"Thank you for taking care of our family during this time."

"At night, I have even better news to tell you and Dad!"

……

Fragrant hare and pheasant, roasted in one pot, served with chili and ginger.

The most primitive game, but also the most appetizing delicacy.

During this period of time, the enthusiastic people who took good care of her family got a bowl of wild game tonight.

While sleeping at night, Yang Ruoqing called Yang Huazhong and Mrs. Sun to her room.

After closing the doors and windows, he took out the 220 taels of silver.

And he told his parents exactly what happened in the valley during the day.

It is the first time that the couple have seen so much money since they lived so far.

It was also the first time I heard such a horrible thing about python eating people.

Sun was so frightened that his face turned pale on the spot.

Originally, I wanted to touch these yellow and white things.

Thinking that it was cut out from the belly of the big snake, the woman retracted her hand again.
