Chapter 29: A Night of Terror in the Village
Tonight we had chicken soup made from half a chicken, a small portion of roe deer meat, and a handful of green vegetables picked from the few vegetable plots.
There is also the wild vegetable porridge here, which is the best meal Yu Qingqing has ever had since she traveled through time.
After finishing their meal and clearing away the dishes, the family still sat around the table, with Yu Qinghai reporting on what had happened today.
"Mom, I told you that my sister's ginseng was sold for a total of 1,300 taels, which is enough for an ordinary family in the village to use for several lifetimes."
Yu Qinghai spoke excitedly to his mother.
"Oh my god! Is that ginseng really worth so much money? Qing'er, you are amazing." Hua Qinglu could not hide his excitement.
"My dear, that's true, but this is what Qing'er earned herself. I took some of it and let Qing'er keep the rest." Yu Qingshu said as he gave all the remaining 151 taels to Hua Qinglu.
"Just listen to your husband, but Qing'er, you have to keep it safe and don't lose it, after all, it's not a small amount." Hua Qinglu also gave a serious explanation, and then everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
After Yu Qingqing returned to the room, she immediately slipped into the space, took out the silver, and began to count it carefully.
The total amount was one thousand one hundred taels of silver. Looking at the gold ingots in front of her, Yu Qingqing took them in her mouth and took a bite.
"Oh, it's really true!" Yu Qingqing muttered to herself again. She was so happy that she was a little rich woman.
Yu Qingqing was holding her silver and was happy for a long time. Then she went to the vegetable garden to check on the vegetables she had grown.
A lot of chayote flowers have bloomed, and some have even produced small fruit buds.
The two ginseng plants seemed to have grown a little bigger, but she didn't know if it was Yu Qingqing's illusion.
The wheat seedlings have grown very tall, and they look especially beautiful green.
The dogwood and rice have sprouted and are now growing taller. The temperature in the space is like spring all year round, which is very suitable for the growth of crops.
Moreover, a small part of the dogwood flowers have bloomed, and even the rice seems to be showing signs of blooming.
Yu Qingqing looked at all this and felt that life was becoming more and more hopeful.
Then she went to look at the wild boar again. She really couldn't catch it by herself. It was not realistic!
The wild boar had adapted to the space, and there were some weeds growing in the space, which was more than enough for it to eat. The wild boar had obviously gained weight, and it looked like it weighed more than 400 kilograms.
It seems that the animals in the space grow very fast. Yu Qingqing looked at the treasure tree again, and it was already lush and leafy.
The basil tree grows about two meters tall, and its leaves look lush and green, very beautiful.
"Help! Someone come quickly! There's no one here! Woo woo woo!" Yu Qingqing heard crying and shouting outside as soon as she came out of the space, so she came out of the room immediately, and at this time everyone else was also awakened.
"Don't come out, go back quickly and I'll go take a look. No matter what happened, don't come out." Yu Qingshu took a piece of wood in his hand and went out with Yu Qinghai.
"Someone come quickly! Someone come quickly!" The cries came again.
"Village chief, what's going on? Why is someone shouting for help?" Yu Qingshu saw the village chief He Qiang, who was with a group of people, each of whom had a tool in his hand.
"Qinghai! It seems that some refugees have entered the village and are trying to steal things. Aunt Liu was pushed down and injured her waist.
There were no casualties in Jiang Erwa's family, but most of the food in their home was stolen. The voice just now was that of Jiang Erwa's mother.
Regardless of the danger and unwilling to sacrifice the food, the two of them went after the refugees one after the other.
"Refugees? Where did they come from? They are so bold to come and steal food in the middle of the night."
Yu Qingshu didn't expect that it was the refugees who were stealing things.
Yu Qingshu also followed the village chief to the village entrance to chase the refugees.
Yu Qingqing and the others had not returned yet, they were all waiting for news in the yard. Yu Qingqing had just yawned and suddenly did not dare to speak.
Because when she looked up, she suddenly found two heads on the wall of her house, sneaking around there. They were definitely not the villagers, so they must be people from outside who broke in.
Yu Qingqing was so scared that she didn't dare to move, nor did she dare to tell her sister and mother. She was thinking about how to get a weapon or something.
"Mom, I'm thirsty. I'm going to the kitchen to drink some water. Please accompany me and go together."
Yu Qingqing didn't care whether Yu Qingmei and Hua Qinglu agreed or not. She directly pulled them into the room where Yu Qingji slept and quickly closed the door.
Hua Qinglu didn’t know what happened to his daughter?
"Qing'er, what happened? Why do you seem so flustered? Didn't you say you were going to the kitchen?" Hua Qinglu asked.
"Second sister, mother, you must listen to me from now on." Yu Qingqing calmed down and continued.
"Listen to me. Don't speak loudly after I tell you. I just found two heads sneaking around on the wall. There are no men in the house now.
I know a little bit of fighting skills, but I'm not sure, let's block the door now."
Yu Qingqing said as she moved the only cabinet in the room to the door with Hua Qinglu, blocking it.
Hua Qinglu and Yu Qingmei were still somewhat panicked. In fact, Yu Qingqing herself was also very panicked.
When the people on the wall saw that they were going to the kitchen, they became bolder and jumped down at once.
They all thought the food was in the kitchen, and since it was dark, they didn't go anywhere else. The two sneaked into the kitchen and started banging on the door.
As they banged on the door again and again, the people inside were so frightened that they dared not even breathe. Everyone pressed tightly against the door, determined not to be pushed open.
Yu Qingji, who was lying on the bed, was frightened by the sound of the door slamming. He got up, sat on the bed and started crying. Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming more and more tense, Yu Qingqing also began to panic.
After Yu Qingshu followed the village chief to find the person, they only found some food and didn't leave again.
Yu Qingshu was also very worried about his family at this moment, fearing that some of them might have slipped through the net, so he and Yu Qinghai rushed home as quickly as possible.
As soon as he reached the door of his house, he realized something was wrong. Yu Qingji's crying and the loud banging sounds inside scared him to death.
"Where did you come from, thieves? Why don't you surrender now?" Yu Qingshu shouted and attacked the two people in the yard. Before they could react, they were hit by a stick.
Yu Qingshu and Yu Qinghai quickly subdued the two men.
"My husband, I was so scared, I thought I would never see you again." Hua Qinglu cried and threw herself on Yu Qingshu.
Yu Qingmei and Yu Qingqing also had tears in their eyes. Yu Qingmei held Yu Qingji, who was crying non-stop, and tried to comfort him.
Yu Qinghai tied up the two men with ropes and handed them over to the village chief for disposal.
