Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhou Ying shook her head.

This thod was sound, but what could they do even if they heard the bell ringing? By then, the wild beasts would have already rushed into the village, so it was ineffective.

Fortunately, nothing else ca down the mountain over the next few days.

It made sense. Leopards were not to be trifled with. If they were forced to co down the mountains, it ant that there were no animals left. Naturally, there would be nothing coming down the mountains.

Five days later, all the villages in the town were cleared, including the roads to the county.

Gu Chengrui had temporarily returned to the clinic to treat the injured and sick.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the village turned cold because most of the families had gone to funerals.

On this day, Zhou Ying was in the back storing more ice when she suddenly heard Er Zhuang’s bark.

She saw Gu Ziyi and Mrs. Wang walking in when she walked out.

She hurriedly stopped Er Zhuang and let them into the house.

After making a cup of chrysanthemum tea for each of them, she asked, “Aunty, big sister, what brings you here?”

“I have sothing to ask; wow, your room is warm.” Mrs. Wang sat down and rubbed her frozen face, then covered the teacup with both hands.

“I bought a lot of firewood this year, so we have a little more to spare. We do have to treat ourselves sotis, right?” Zhou Ying smiled and poured herself a cup of tea before sitting down.

“Auntie, you said you had sothing to ask. What is it?” he asked.

“It’s not a big deal. Chengsi’s wife is pregnant, so she wants to eat a few mouthfuls of at to nourish her and her child.

“In addition, it’s almost the twelfth lunar month, so we wanted to buy a cow from you to celebrate the new year. I don’t know if it’s convenient for you.” Mrs. Wang explained her reason for coming.

“If it’s convenient, I’d like to buy a sheep too.” Gu Ziyi said.

“That’s fine, but isn’t it a little too early? The at won’t be fresh if left for too long.” Zhou Ying said.

“It’s fine. It’s cold this year. If we put it in the snow, the at won’t go bad before it lts. We can store it for a few more months.” Mrs. Wang explained.

Zhou Ying didn’t try to persuade them again but asked, “When do you guys want it?”

“Within two days if possible.” At that point, Mrs. Wang hesitated and asked, “Regarding the price…?”

“I will charge you the sa price as before all these disasters. The cattle for 20 taels each, and the sheep for 5 taels each.” Zhou Ying gave her the price.

“Alright, then you can send them over in the next two days when it’s convenient?”

“Do you want to slaughter them on your own?”

“Not having to do that is better.”

“Alright, it’s still early now. 1’11 go over to the manor in a while and bring the at back before dark.”

“By the way, you’ve been married for two years. Why haven’t you had a child yet?” Mrs. Wang asked at this mont.

“We’re not in a hurry. We’ll wait until this disaster is over. Otherwise, it will be bad when we can’t eat anything.” Zhou Ying replied with a smile.

“That’s true. Our village is lucky to be supported by white sweet potatoes. Otherwise, we would be starving to the point of lying in our beds, let alone having children.” Mrs. Wang nodded in agreent.

“But I’m afraid there aren’t many chickens left in the village. It’s hard even to eat an egg.” Gu Ziyi complained.

“Sister, don’t let anyone hear about this. Otherwise, there’ll be thieves coming into your house.” Zhou Ying warned Gu Ziyi.

“Indeed. Nowadays, don’t say you have food no matter where you go. Otherwise, it’s easy to attract hatred from the masses.” Mrs. Wang nodded in agreent.

After chatting and drinking two cups of tea, the mother-daughter pair left.

Zhou Ying packed up and dressed up like a ball of cotton. She locked the door and rushed to the manor with Er Zhuang, fitted in a cotton-padded jacket.

Uncle Nian was montarily surprised when he saw Er Zhuang in clothes. He smiled and patted the dog’s head, saying, “Wow, Er Zhuang is wearing a cotton

coat..”
