Chapter 49
"Man'er, what are you thinking?" Ye Yuan noticed Liu Man'er's distraction, and shook his hand in front of her.

"It's nothing." Liu Man'er shook her head, and was about to put a piece of chicken into her mouth, but found that the meat in the bowl was gone just this time when she was distracted.

"Thank you both for your hospitality." The young man stood up after eating and drinking, bowed to Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er, and asked, "Do you want to sit in the humble house?"

"No need, come back next time you have a chance, it's not early, we should go back." Ye Yuan stood up as he spoke, the two bowed to each other, then the young man packed his things, Ye Yuan turned the stove After the remaining sparks in the house were extinguished with water, he also took Liu Man'er away.

"Alas..." On the way home, Liu Man'er couldn't help but sigh, Ye Yuan asked her, "You should be happy, why are you sighing?"

"I'm thinking about how I can get rich." Liu Man'er turned her head and looked at Ye Yuan leisurely, "Give me a suggestion, how do you think I can get rich?"

Ye Yuan looked at Liu Man'er seriously for a few minutes, and said leisurely: "In your dream, you should be able to get rich."

"I really want to hit you, do you know?" Liu Maner glared at Ye Yuan.

"Isn't it good that we are like this now? We can live comfortably." Ye Yuan's voice was a little low, he felt that Liu Man'er is not a person who is greedy for money, but why is she thinking about getting rich all day long?

"We have no worries about food and clothing, but what about my parents? They live so badly now, and my younger sister, who is so thin, I really want to let them have no worries." Liu Man'er said that she was afraid that Ye Yuan would misunderstand, and said :

"I'm not turning my elbows out. I'm always thinking about my natal family. I just feel that our own family is not very rich. It seems that we have no worries about food and clothing. But if you don't go hunting for a few days, won't your family run out of food? And Our house hasn’t been repaired yet, and our mother, if we get sick, we don’t even have money for medicine as children.”

"And your brother Ye Qing, I guess he's thinking about marrying a wife all day long." Liu Man'er suddenly thought of Ye Qing, she chuckled and said, "As for his book, I think he should read it this month. Don't go on, when the time comes to go home and marry a wife, people will dislike him for being poor, don't you have any thoughts in your heart as a big brother?"

"No, Man'er, I want to ask you right now, do you despise me for being poor?" Ye Yuan held Liu Man'er's hand and asked seriously.

"I don't dislike it." Liu Man'er smiled slightly, "But I want to make this family better."

"Don't worry, I will work hard." Ye Yuan replied: "In the future, except for a small part of the money I earn for my mother's household, I will save the rest for you."

It is not a problem to save money for you, the question is do you have money to save for me?

She was so slandering in her heart, but for fear of dispelling his enthusiasm, Liu Man'er could only nod her head and say a good word.

They were accompanied along the way, chatting, hunting, time passed quickly, slowly, the sun set to the west, and Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan finally returned home.

As soon as they got home, Liu Man'er naturally went in to say hello to Fang Shi, and to report that she was safe. The two of them didn't come back all night yesterday, so I don't know how worried Fang Shi was.

Sure enough, after seeing Liu Man'er and Ye Yuan, Fang's tears almost didn't fall down, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back."

Fang muttered: "Last night, you two didn't come back all night, but my mother was very anxious. Today I saw that you didn't come back. I almost went to the village to ask someone to go to the mountain to find you two. , where are you two going? Why did you come back after such a long time without telling your mother?"

Liu Man'er coughed, and bumped Ye Yuan with her elbow, "Ye Yuan, didn't you tell mother when you went out?"

"I just said that I went out hunting." Seeing Fang's anxious look, Ye Yuan felt a little ashamed, "Mother, this is all my fault. I hunted all the way and saw a lot of prey, so I went to kill him." I walked into the mountain, but I went too far and couldn't come back."

"Yeah, it's mainly because I'm not good. I was caught in a trap halfway, otherwise we would have returned early." Liu Man'er also chimed in.

"Mother doesn't mean to blame you, mother knows that you two are two good children, but you don't tell mother when you go out, mother is really anxious." Fang Shi helped Liu Man'er and walked over , asked: "You said you hurt your foot, what happened, where did you hurt?"

"It's nothing serious, but I didn't pay attention, and got caught in the trap that other hunters put on the mountain." Liu Man'er said quickly.

"Hey, Ye Yuan, you child, you are also a hunter yourself, why didn't you remind Man'er to be careful?" Fang gave Ye Yuan a white look, and then squatted down to take off Liu Man'er's shoes, "Mother Take a look, is it serious?"

"It's not serious, it's not serious." Liu Man'er quickly waved her hand to stop Fang's movements.

"It's not serious. You seem to be limping when you walk." Fang said angrily, and then helped Liu Man'er take off her shoes. Although the medicine has been applied, you can still see that her feet are tall It's swollen.

"Ah, why is it so swollen?" Fang said worriedly.

"It's okay, the main reason is that we have traveled a lot today." Liu Man'er said lightly.

This mountain road is difficult to walk, and it is easy to grind the wound. At this moment, the medicine on Liu Man'er's feet has already shifted, and only the rough cloth is left in contact with the wound. After walking, isn't it even more eye-catching.

"I'll boil water, get some salt water for you to soak, and then get rid of the spirits for you to wipe off." Fang said, and was about to get busy.

"Don't, don't, mother." Liu Man'er quickly grabbed Fang's body and soaked her feet in salt water. Her feet had wounds, which would kill her.

She could only divert her attention, brought in her rattan basket as if offering a treasure, and removed the grass leaves covering it, revealing a yellow loquat, "Mother, look, this is the loquat I picked from the mountain. Would you like to try it?"

"Ah, this is a loquat, where did you come from?" Fang felt very happy when she saw the big loquat.

"Well, Ye Yuan and I stayed overnight at an old man's house last night. The old man gave it to us, but I already ate some on the way." Liu Man'er handed the rattan basket to Fang.

"It's already a big trouble for you to live in someone else's house. How can you take other people's things casually." Fang's words had a tone of reproach.

"It's okay, mother, I made an agreement with that old man Ye Yuan, I will pick loquats for him in ten days, and I may not come back for two days, mother, don't worry." Liu Man'er Fang explained.

"Okay, how far is the old man's house from here?" Fang asked again.

"It's quite far, over two mountains." Liu Man'er replied again.

"It's such a long distance, it really doesn't work and you don't get rewarded. Mother can not eat his loquats. It's such a long journey, and you will have to rush over there again. How troublesome."

In fact, Liu Man'er felt a little far away now that she thought about it, mainly because today, her legs were almost broken when she walked, and Ye Yuan was dragging behind her.

"We also caught rabbits today, as well as roe deer meat and pheasants." Liu Man'er dug out the contents of her back basket like a treasure, "We keep this little rabbit, and the rest can be eaten and dried to make bacon. "

"Ah, you have brought so many things this time." Fang was also a little surprised.

"Yeah, it all depends on Ye Yuan, he's amazing." Liu Man'er looked around, only to realize that Ye Yuan was nowhere to be seen, and asked strangely, "Where's Ye Yuan?"

"Ye Yuan!" She yelled.

"I'm here." Ye Yuan's voice came from afar.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm planting flowers."

"Yes, we also dug some flowers and planted them back." Liu Man'er said to Fang's treasures, "So this trip, although it took a long time, was quite fruitful."

"Okay, okay, I'll go and put these things away." Fang said and took the basket to the backyard.

Not long after she took it back, there were only a few poor little rabbits left inside.

"Hey, by the way, why didn't you see Xiaohe for Fusheng?" Liu Man'er was a little surprised.

"They went out to dig earthworms, and they must be back soon." Fang said.

Now that there are a lot of chickens and ducks in the family, the tasks of Liu Fusheng and Ye He are also heavy. After all, it is really not worthwhile to feed the chickens with grains and rice all the time. If the chickens are fed with grass leaves, the chickens will not be able to eat. It's not long, so I can only look around for some bugs to feed the chickens.

"Thank you for your hard work." Liu Man'er had just finished speaking when she heard footsteps, "They are back."

After a while, Fang found out that Liu Fusheng and Ye He came in from the gate, and she sighed sincerely: "You young people have good ears."

"Brother!" Seeing Ye Yuan who was planting flowers outside, both of them were surprised in their voices.

"En." Ye Yuan nodded, as a greeting to them.

"Sister, you're back." Liu Fusheng ran into the house, while Ye He went to the back of the house to feed the chickens and ducks.

"Wait, go wash your hands first." Seeing that Liu Fusheng was about to rub her body, Liu Man'er hurriedly said.

She was most afraid of hating earthworms. Liu Fusheng might have caught them before, so she felt a little disgusted.

Seeing the disgust in his sister's eyes, Liu Fusheng pursed his lips and went to the backyard to wash his hands in displeasure.

"You can't just wash in the basin, you scoop up water to wash." Liu Man'er said as she prepared to follow, "I'll scoop up water for you."

But her feet were swollen again, and they had been placed outside, and she didn't wear shoes, so Fang said, "Mother, go and help him scoop up water to absorb."

"My child, Fusheng is clean in my house, but you still despise him." As she spoke, she was about to hold Liu Fusheng's hand.

"Don't." Liu Man'er quickly stopped her, her actions were so violent that Liu Fusheng almost felt that he was poisonous.

"What's wrong?" Fang asked.
