10. Chapter 10 Tanuki
Chapter 10 Civet Cat
Early in the morning, my father went out to find the village chief to get the land deed to build a house, so that he would not have to worry about it when he got to the town.
Let’s not mention for the moment how her father was lying at the door of someone’s yard with an overly silly and flattering smile that almost frightened the village chief’s wife who got up early to feed the chickens and almost fell down.
At this time, my mother was not idle at home. Wei Meimei took out some of the red dates, brown sugar and plums that were sent by the system yesterday. Early in the morning, Wei Meili took out some of them, and then cooked Sanhong Sweet Soup in the pot.
Red beans, red dates and brown sugar, according to her mother, are all herbs that nourish qi and blood.
Although the system said it could extend the life span of Mei Berry, Wei Meili and Mei Youqian still did not give up raising their cubs in their own way.
The system can add lives, but can it add meat?
While Wei Meimei was busy making sweet soup, Mei Mei was squatting in the yard and staring at a civet cat.
Yesterday, her father said that there was a civet cat in the kitchen that had taken up residence there. It was scared away yesterday. Could it be that this one was the one he was talking about?
Meiberry looked at the civet cat squatting at the door of the yard. It looked very cute. It tilted its little head and stared at her with its round green eyes for a long time, which immediately made Meiberry cute.
"Meow?"
By some strange coincidence, Meiberry meowed at the pear cat.
Raccoon cat:=^=
She didn't know if it was Mayberry's illusion, but she saw that the cat's round little head was slightly straightened when it looked at her, and its eyes that were round just now were now narrowed.
The look in those narrowed eyes was full of contempt.
Mayberry:???
What's the matter, my appearance doesn't fit in with Maomao's aesthetics of a shit-shoveling official?
Just when Mei Bei was doing PUA on her own, the sound of her father's happy whistle came from outside the courtyard, and the civet cat jumped out after hearing the sound.
"well!"
Meiberry couldn't help shouting at the place where the civet cat disappeared. Unfortunately, where the cat was squatting just now, only her father's big feet were standing there.
"Daughter, what are you doing? Are you here to welcome daddy?"
Mei Youqian's mood didn't change after he got the document from the village chief. As soon as he entered the yard, he stood in front of his daughter, then reached out and lifted it up from the ground.
Mayberry:??
Mayberry:!!!
"Dad, put me down!"
As a fitness equipment that is as big as her father's, Meiberry has not been treated like this for several years, and she was so frightened that she screamed.
The key is that her dad is still there.
Wei Meili, who heard the commotion and came out, immediately took the small bamboo pole that had not been taken away last night and chased her father around the stone table in the yard and threw it over!
"You still think you have eight-pack abs? What if you drop your daughter because you are so weak?"
"How could I be weak? I'm fine! Ouch, stop fighting, stop fighting!"
Early in the morning, the Mayberry family's day started with such excitement...
In the end, the farce ended with Mei Berry's father begging for mercy and admitting his mistake, and the family drank the sweet soup that Mei's mother had cooked all morning.
The red beans have been boiled out of the sand, and the soft and glutinous red dates have been boiled. The two tastes alternate in my mouth. After eating that bowl of plum berries, I feel that my whole body is warm, and my head is a little groggy when I wake up early.
Also wake up.
At the end of the day, the remaining Wei Meili in the pot was put into a bamboo tube and let Meiberry take it with her on the road to drink.
Before the family got ready to go, Wei Meili didn't forget to look back at the dilapidated house that could be used as a filming location for a horror movie, and then she remembered something.
"Buy a lock. Husband, when we go to town, remember to buy two locks. The locks on the door of this house are broken."
Wei Meili's words reminded Mei Bei that there seems to be a plot here in the original novel about the door lock.
In the original work, the heroine's family went to the street, and after returning home, they found that their home had been "burgled". All the dozens of kilograms of food that their family had separated from each other were stolen!
Thinking of this plot, Mei Berry already had a vague prediction about the time and place of today's check-in.
…
"Daughter, what's wrong? Are you exposed to the sun?"
Their village is eight miles away from the nearest town of Lihu.
When Mayberry was healthy, she had never tried to walk so far in one go, let alone when her body was not strong now.
When she walked less than a mile, her father was carrying her on his back.
Along the way, Mei Youqian noticed that his daughter, who was lying on his back, seemed very silent, and then he started to ask.
"If you feel unwell, tell mom and dad~"
Mei Youqian, who was worried, added another sentence.
"No, I just remembered a plot in the novel."
Mayberry slowly recounted the plot she remembered.
After hearing that Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Zhang stole food from the hostess's family, Wei Meili directly cursed her for being shameless, and gained a new understanding of the top quality of Lao Mei's family.
Then Wei Meili slapped her thigh and thought: "Ah, why did you just say it? What about our family's food?"
"Mom, weren't you afraid of mice last night and asked me to collect food into the system space?"
Mei Mei reminded Wei Meili that they had loaded the food into the system space last night.
Because the system also agreed to provide space for the Mayberry family to store their things.
However, except that the rewards distributed by the system can be stored in the system space without any conditions, the system only provides 100 cubic meters of space for things collected from outside.
After being reminded by Mei Bei, Wei Meili's heart just returned to her stomach and she praised Mei Bei's speed in doing things.
"That means that even if our family is destroyed, there will be nothing left to destroy?"
Everyone put their thoughts back into their stomachs, but they didn't know what Mei Youqian thought of when he mentioned such a sentence.
Before Mei Bei could answer, she heard her father suddenly laugh, and his laugh was particularly obscene.
"dad?"
Mei Bei was not sure if her father was holding something back, so she shouted, but Mei Youqian calmed down her expression.
Mei Youqian coughed, cleared his throat, and coaxed her: "Well, Pei Bao, please tell Dad carefully. What did the heroine and her family do when they found out that there was no food?"
***
On the other hand, Mei You and his family got up very early today and rushed towards Lishui Town almost before dawn.
There was no other reason. Yesterday, Mei You "picked up" a dying deer on the mountain. It wasn't until after the family had finished dinner that Mei You dragged the deer out from the thorn bushes behind their house.
According to Mei You's description, the deer somehow provoked a wild boar and was jumped by it. He rolled down the hillside and was seriously injured. Only then did Mei You, who was planning to dig some wild vegetables at the bottom of the mountain, take a big advantage.
Therefore, in order not to disturb the people in the village, the family went to the town before dawn and sold the deer to a restaurant in the town.
I don’t know if this is for sale. When they learned that this deer was directly sold for ten taels of silver, Mei Sanma and the others were so excited that their faces turned red!
"Oh my God, this deer is not half as heavy as a pig. Why is it more expensive than a pig?"
After collecting the money, the family of three left the restaurant far away. Only then did Miao dare to breathe heavily and say such words.
"I heard from the collectors of this deer that its meat is extremely delicious and very nutritious. Some of the landowners in the city really like this."
While Mei Sanma was explaining, he couldn't help but be stunned at the sudden extra money.
When he was chopping firewood yesterday afternoon, he was still thinking about his part-time job and was worried about it.
After all, the family has just separated and there are many places that are short of money, but the sudden extra money today is undoubtedly a windfall.
Mei You on the side didn't know whether it was intentional or not. She didn't mention the ownership of the money. She just looked up at Mei Sanma and asked, "Dad, how do you think this money should be spent?"
Mei Sanma: I don’t know how to spend it_(:3 ∠)_but it’s absolutely right to say something to your family!
