Chapter 177: Digging up the Extinct Family
"My son wants to buy the house first, and we can figure out how to distribute it later. At least we can drive the bad boys there first, so that they won't make trouble at home."
The old patriarch listened, pursed his lips, and lowered his eyelids.
"Your second brother and his wife have gone to the fields to harvest. When they come back in the evening, we will discuss it. If they agree, we can buy it."
"I will listen to Dad's arrangement. I will tell him when my second brother comes back."
No matter what, Dad finally agreed. As for how to arrange the yard in the future, we will talk about it first.
No matter how the family arranges, Bai Yunxi still lives a steady life.
The next morning, Bai Yunxi got up and felt that the weather was a bit cold. He signed in and pushed the door open. He saw a pile of yellow leaves on the ground swept by Du. It was frost.
"Mom, you've woken up. I'll get you some hot water to wash your face. It's very cold today. I think it's going to frost soon."
Mrs. Du scooped a ladle of hot water from the pot, mixed it with some cold water, and then put it on the basin rack.
Hearing Mrs. Du's tone, Bai Yunxi looked at the fallen leaves on the ground. It turned out that there was no frost yet, which meant that the wind was blowing.
Looking at the chilly weather, just as Mrs. Du said, it would be a few days before the frost.
After washing, Bai Yunxi took a health pill and continued to practice the Eight Vajra Kung Fu. It was worthy of being a health product exchanged. After taking it three times, she clearly felt that her body was much lighter.
After a set of exercises, Bai Yunxi wiped the sweat off her face with a handkerchief and turned to the backyard.
The backyard was a vegetable field, and it was still surrounded by the wall built before. Later, it was surrounded by sorghum stalks by the second son. The privacy was quite good.
The vegetable garden is planted with cabbages moved from the old house, and some small green vegetables, which are a little yellow due to the sudden cold weather.
On the left is the cellar dug by the second son, which is more than ten feet deep and enough to store sweet potatoes for one mu of land.
On the right is the firewood pile, which is half a person high. The second son would chop a load of firewood every morning to prepare firewood for the winter.
"Mom, do you think there is anything else that needs to be improved?" Bai Anyan came in with firewood, saw his mother staring at the cellar, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and smiled foolishly.
Bai Yunxi shook his head,
"Mom just came to see, in doing farm work, mom is not as good as you, I am just talking about it on paper, I have seen a lot, but I have not done it. You are a person with practical experience, you can understand it at once."
Listening to his mother's praise, Bai Anyan was still a little uncomfortable, scratched his head embarrassedly, and piled the firewood on the firewood pile.
At this time, the morning glow appeared in the east, a piece of red, the sun slowly emerged from the horizon, and the morning cold air was dispelled a lot.
After the family had breakfast, Bai Yunxi assigned tasks directly.
"Li, take Xiao Si and Xiao Wu to the mountains to dig for sweet potatoes. By the way, look for other fruit trees. As long as they are fruits, you can pick them back."
"Mom, I went to fetch water this morning. Aunt Song told me that since everyone knows that sweet potatoes are edible, the whole village went out to dig for sweet potatoes yesterday. I guess they will be extinct."
Li spoke angrily, and when she thought of other fruits, her eyes suddenly brightened again.
"Don't worry, mom, there are many things in the forest. We will find other things."
"Okay, you guys be careful and don't go into the mountains."
Bai Yunxi was not surprised at the reaction of the villagers. Everyone likes to follow the trend. Whenever they hear that something is edible, they won't leave a single strand for you.
This is human nature. No one will give in to you just because you have no food.
