Please continue reading on ΒOXΝVEL.ϹΟM .Shu Wanniang glanced at the two rabbits and glared at her daughter. Having raised her, she was most familiar with her daughter’s hunting methods.
Mu Yangling stuck out her tongue and went forward intimately to hold her mother’s hand. “Mother, I’ll bring the rabbits to the county to exchange for some eggs to nourish you. This way, my baby siblings will have milk to drink.”
Shu Wanniang thought about how the twins had been crying from hunger for the past few days and squeezed out an ugly smile. She stroked her daughter’s head and said, “Alright, just exchange one. You can keep the other one for dinner.”
Madam Ma-Liu took the rabbit from Xiuhong’s hand and said, “I’ll go instead, lest others bully Ah Ling seeing her young age.”
Mu Yangling couldn’t ask for more. Madam Ma-Liu’s bargaining skills were unparalleled.
That night, Madam Ma-Liu brought back 35 eggs. At the rate of two eggs a day for Shu Wanniang, this should last them for some time.
Mu Yangling went to bed early in the morning. She got up before dawn the next day and woke Xiuhong and Xiulan up for the first time. After putting on thick clothes for them, she said, “We’ll burn the weeds later. I’ve checked—there’s no wind now.”
Madam Ma-Liu had already gotten up and cooked porridge for them. She made everyone eat the porridge before leaving to warm up their bodies.
Little Bowen got up in a daze and wanted to tag along too. Mu Yangling stuffed him under the blanket and said, “Be good and continue sleeping. You’re still young. If you fall sick, our family won’t have the money to buy medicine for you. Stay at home and take care of the twins. We’ll be back in the morning.”
Mu Yangling quickly finished two bowls of porridge, took the lighter, and left.
When they arrived at the edge of the field, Mu Yangling handed them a branch with leaves. “Xiuhong, you and Xiulan guard one end. Great-aunt, guard another end. I’ll guard the third.”
“What about here?” Great-aunt asked.
“Don’t worry about it. This large piece of land is our family’s land. Let the fire burn in this direction, don’t let it spread too wide. Control it slowly and let it burn inwards. When you leave, you must ensure that the flames are extinguished.”
