Chapter 556

He Hui and the other three came early the next day, knowing that they wanted to discuss something, while Zhu Zhu and Zhao Lan'er were sitting in the courtyard peeling chestnuts.

"Sister-in-law and the others are talking so lively!" Zhao Lan'er whispered while glancing at the main hall from time to time.

"I'm afraid they will have to hunt in the mountains in less than two days. Naturally, some things need to be discussed in advance. The silk flowers on your head, brother and sister, are so beautiful, they look like real peonies."

Zhao Lan'er smiled shyly when she heard that she touched the silk flower on her head; "This is a gift from the second master."

Seeing the smiling and happy Zhao Lan'er thinking about what she promised Han Shi yesterday, Zhu Zhu felt bad and couldn't help but sigh.

"I won't be able to go up the mountain anymore."

Zhao Lan'er glanced at sister-in-law's swollen belly and laughed; "If you want me to say that sister-in-law shouldn't be on the mountain long ago, although women in the valley don't pay attention to these things, but this is the first time sister-in-law is pregnant, so I should pay more attention to it." good."

Zhu Zhu didn't want to say anything for a moment when Zhao Lan'er said the same thing.

In the main hall, Dou Dou looked at the two elder brothers and asked; "Yesterday, when everyone came to pick up things, I inquired about it and found that although the strong wind caused us to lose some food, fortunately, the loss was not much. It will last until next year." No problem, it's getting cold in the mountains, shouldn't we go hunting?"

"Don't worry about hunting now. You all probably already know about the chestnuts. I plan to lead our people in the valley to pick back all the chestnuts in the surrounding area in three days, and then spend another two days chopping firewood. What do you think about going out hunting again?" Han Shi asked as he looked at his two younger brothers.

"This is naturally good. Many berries are ripe in this season. It would be a pity not to pick them back. Now, we cut down the firewood for winter and expose it to the sun for a few days. Then we can use it after storing it. It will save us from the rain." There is no firewood available."

"The cotton, food, etc. that we exchanged back will be distributed to those in the valley who are relatively difficult and who have just arrived, and some will be reserved for the Black Panthers by the way."

"Okay, what about elder brother and second brother Yan?" Dou Dou looked at the two and whispered.

He Hui raised his brows slightly; "I can't hide the matter about the salt. The people who went out with us this time already knew that we had salt in our hands, but they didn't ask where the salt came from. I think they will in the future. I don’t want to ask, that’s fine, it saves us a lot of explaining, and we just distribute some to the people in the valley on a regular basis.”

Han Shi pondered for a moment after listening to He Hui's words; "Your suggestion is very good. Just do as you say. Third brother, please ask the people in our valley to see if there are any pits built, so that every household can It won’t be so difficult to build a base all winter long.”

"Okay, I'll hurry up and do this."

"We just came back and have a lot of things to do. You have to work hard these days, and then burn some tiles. Uncle Bai's house still needs us to repair, and the bricks must be fired as soon as possible. It is raining and snowing on the road. It’s easier for women to go out.”

"I'll take care of this matter." He Hui simply took over the matter of burning bricks.

"While we were away, your sister-in-law and sister-in-law dried a lot of chestnuts. Let's grind them all out this afternoon!" Han Shi looked at Dou and teased.

"it is good!"

The three brothers discussed things for the next period of time and left in a hurry. After all, they had a lot of things to do, and they had to seize the time to bring back Bai Chenglin's things.

Bai Chenglin walked out from the west room and looked at the three people who left with a slight twinkle in their eyes.
