Chapter 11: Awakening
Lu Xiaoyao went to deliver food to the second aunt and ate the food cooked by Lu Xiaoyao, and the second aunt also cried silently, her eyes were full of gratitude to Lu Xiaoyao.
Coming out of the second aunt's room, Zhao Cong and Zhao Lan had also eaten, and both of them beckoned Lu Xiaoyao to hurry up and eat.
Thinking about Zhao Guanlan, Lu Xiaoyao ate quickly, then motioned for Zhao Cong and Zhao Lan to go back to the room to rest, and she also entered Zhao Guanlan's room.
In the quiet room, only Zhao Guanlan's faint breathing sounded, Lu Xiaoyao paced to the side of the bed, reached out and touched Zhao Guanlan's forehead.
Fortunately, the wound was treated, and there was no fever anymore.
Lu Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, sat down beside Zhao Guanlan and began to think about how to live in the future.
and the eldest aunt tore their faces, with her as a person, they will definitely not be asked to eat in the future, and the food at home will not last for a few days.
Thinking of the pile of tiger meat, Lu Xiaoyao had a plan in his heart.
Afraid that Zhao Guanlan would have a fever in the middle of the night, Lu Xiaoyao sat on the edge of the bed for a while, then got up and climbed into the bed from the other end.
Because he was thinking about Zhao Guanlan, Lu Xiaoyao didn't sleep well, and woke up from time to time to touch Zhao Guanlan to see if he had a fever.
The soft fat hand covered Zhao Guanlan's forehead, and the unconscious Zhao Guanlan had a feeling of nothingness, not repulsive, on the contrary, he felt comfortable, but soon the comfort retreated, and he felt the boundless darkness again.
Following
When Lu Xiaoyao woke up, he saw two small heads at the head of the bed, looking at her and Zhao Guanlan with purring eyes.
Lu Xiaoyao smiled and said, "You two got up so early?" ”
He rested early last night, and Zhao Cong was already full of energy, and after Lu Xiaoyao asked at this time, he nodded vigorously.
"When you sleep well, you get up."
Lu Xiaoyao smiled and reached out to probe Zhao Guanlan's temperature.
No fever.
Seeing Lu Xiaoyao's movements, Zhao Cong asked, "Sister-in-law, when will my brother wake up?" ”
Lu Xiaoyao got up and stood on the ground, checked Zhao Guanlan's pulse again, and then replied, "Your brother's physique is good, it's going to be soon." ”
While talking, Lu Xiaoyao went out of the room to wash, went to the kitchen to heat up yesterday's porridge, and called Zhao Cong and Zhao Lan to eat.
Lu Xiaoyao sent food to her second aunt, and when she came back, the two of them had finished eating, and they were still smashing their mouths, salivating.
"Xiaohu, come with me to the town in a while, let's sell the tiger meat and buy some food back."
The food at home can't last for a few days, while the tiger meat is still fresh, Lu Xiaoyao thinks about selling it at a good price and buying some things for the family.
If Zhao Guanlan's injury is to be healed quickly, he also needs a few medicinal materials that are difficult to find on the mountain.
Hearing that he was going to town, Zhao Cong's eyes lit up, and he nodded hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, I'll go with you." ”
Seeing this, Zhao Lan looked at Lu Xiaoyao with expectant eyes, Lu Xiaoyao saw this, rubbed her head, and said, "Girl, next time I take you there, we will come back after changing the food." ”
Zhao Lan nodded sensibly.
After breakfast, Lu Xiaoyao cleaned up the kitchen, went back to the room to look at Zhao Guanlan, and fed him water before coming out.
"Sister-in-law, let's go." Zhao Cong had already put the tiger meat in a back basket and covered it with banana leaves.
Seeing that he was ready, Lu Xiaoyao smiled, "Wait for me." ”
Tiger skin is a good thing, more valuable than tiger meat, Lu Xiaoyao went to the kitchen wall to take off the tiger skin, and then walked out with the back basket.
"Lan Lan, look forward to your family." When leaving, Lu Xiaoyao did not forget to instruct.
Lujia Village is far away from the town, and it is all muddy mountain roads, which are not easy to walk, and Lu Xiaoyao walked in front with a basket on his back.
Zhao Cong had been following Lu Xiaoyao, and seeing that she was struggling, he hurriedly ran to the front, patted the stones on the road, and shouted at Lu Xiaoyao, "Sister-in-law, come over and rest." ”
Seeing Zhao Cong's movements, Lu Xiaoyao was moved in his heart, this kid is sensible.
Lu Xiaoyao and Zhao Cong stopped and stopped all the way, and when they arrived in the town, the sun was already hanging high.
"Meat buns..."
"Sugar gourd..."
The lively cries rang out with ups and downs, and Lu Xiaoyao also saw the excitement of the big market in ancient times.
"Yo, isn't this the fat girl who came to sell herself last time, why are you here again? What are you going to sell this time? ”
As soon as Lu Xiaoyao and Zhao Cong passed by the pork stall, the butcher's uncle's voice sounded, Lu Xiaoyao heard it, his scalp was numb, and when he thought of the stupid thing he had done, Lu Xiaoyao wanted to put his face in his trouser pocket.
When Zhao Cong heard this, he twisted his eyebrows and pulled Lu Xiaoyao, "Sister-in-law, what is he talking about?" ”
Lu Xiaoyao silently turned his head and took a few steps forward before speaking, "I didn't say anything." ”
smiled awkwardly, she wouldn't tell Zhao Cong that she didn't have pork worth much.
Thinking of pork, Lu Xiaoyao's eyes lit up, and he pulled Zhao Cong back to the pork stall.
Uncle Butcher didn't care about Lu Xiaoyao, but he didn't expect that she would come back again.
Lu Xiaoyao put down the back basket, looked at the butcher uncle and said, "Uncle, I must have something worth more than your meat, can you buy it?" ”
Lu Xiaoyao thought that instead of wandering around the town looking for someone to buy meat, it would be better to sell the tiger meat to this butcher, and she would be able to go home early.
"What's that?" Hearing that Lu Xiaoyao had something more valuable than pork, the butcher became interested and leaned over to see the contents of Lu Xiaoyao's back basket.
When the butcher saw the tiger skin on the basket, there was a gleam in his cloudy eyes.
"Tiger skin, that's a good thing."
Lu Xiaoyao tore the banana leaves open, revealing the tiger meat that had been chopped into pieces, and said proudly, "There is still meat." ”
The butcher's eyes lit up again at the sight of the meat, which is all good stuff!
Lu Xiaoyao didn't miss the glint in the butcher's uncle's eyes, winked at the butcher, and said with a smile, "Uncle, are you interested?" ”
I'm interested, but this tiger meat is expensive!
Lu Xiaoyao saw the hesitation in the butcher's eyes, so he said bewildermently, "Uncle, this meat is all fresh, if you buy it and send it to the city, you will definitely make a lot of money." ”
Lu Xiaoyao's words made the butcher's heart moved, tiger meat may not be sold at a good price in the town, but in the city, it is different.
"Uncle, it's still early, and you can slowly pick the price when you send it to the city." Lu Xiaoyao couldn't help but be bewitched, and the butcher slapped the table and gritted his teeth.
"I'll buy it, how much silver."
Lu Xiaoyao showed a smile on his face and waved his hand, "Ten taels of silver, I will sell it to you together with the tiger skin." ”
Ten taels of silver to buy tiger meat and tiger skin will not suffer, the butcher summed up, and hurriedly asked people to look at the stall for him, and went home to get the money.
The tiger meat was easily sold, Lu Xiaoyao was so happy, and after being happy, he was depressed again.
When I sold myself, I didn't sell it for a day, and I didn't sell it well yet, which is really sad.
The tiger meat was sold, Zhao Cong was very happy, he thought that Lu Xiaoyao would be happy, but he didn't expect to see Lu Xiaoyao's depressed face.
