After she was done, she ate one.

She then started to busy herself with other things, especially the various dried fruits in the mountains. The fruits were nearly half-ripe, so she had to pick them up and store them in the warehouse quickly.

The next day, Gu Chengrui didn’t go straight to his clinic. Instead, he brought two pounds of chestnut cake, two pounds of dried wolf meat, and two pounds of dried beef. The couple then went to the manor together.

Zhou Huaiming, who was drinking a gruel made of white sweet potato vines with a disdainful look, saw them coming as his eyes lit up. He approached them and said, “Brother Gu, you’re here. Have you eaten? If you haven’t, do you want to eat together?”

‘Tve eaten. I’m just here to visit. Please hurry and eat your breakfast.” Gu Chengrui replied.

However, Zhou Huaiming didn’t go back Instead, he stared at the paper bag in his hand.

Gu Chengrui smiled and handed it to him. “This gift for you and Uncle Liu is for the 15th day of the eighth lunar month. It’s a little shabby, so please don’t mind it.”

“How could that be? It’s good enough to have meat to eat this year.” Zhou Huaiming smiled as he took it and placed it on the table.

After that, he found the beef jerky and took a bite.

“It’s easy if you want meat. There are plenty of cattle and sheep in this village. If you want to eat them, you can pick one for slaughter any time.” Gu Chengrui replied.

“Really? I’ll have to pick up some cows during the festival later. As for the price, I’ll pay 20 taels of silver per cow.”

“Oh right, there are also sheep. How about five taels of silver per head?”

“There’s no need…”

“Don’t refuse. We’re brothers, but we should settle our accounts clearly. It’s good enough that you’re letting me eat your livestock.”

“Alright, but tonight I’ll treat you. How about we eat some lamb skewers?”

“Sure, I’ve been craving it for a long time, but I’m just too embarrassed to say it.” Zhou Huaiming laughed.

“Oh right, I have wine here; you don’t need to bring them,” he added.

“Alright, you can pick a sheep or two this afternoon. I’ll come back early.” Gu Chengrui turned around and left.

Zhou Ying didn’t want to run back and forth, so she stayed behind. After exchanging a few polite words with Zhou Huaiming and Manager Liu, she turned around and went to the livestock shed.

Although cattle and sheep breeding was restrained as much as possible because of the lack of grass, many little ones were still being born.

Lastly, she went to the grassland to look at the white sweet potatoes. She found Uncle Nian, who was harvesting the white sweet potato vines, and asked, “Uncle Nian, do you think these white sweet potato vines can guarantee the cattle’s and sheep’s survival until next spring?”

“It’s hard to say. The problem is that we need wheat bran as the core ingredient. Otherwise, I’m afraid these aren’t enough for them to eat.”

“How much wheat bran and soybeans do we have in the warehouse?”

“They should be able to last until the end of the year.”

“You’re sure good at being frugal.”

“I had no choice. I saw something wasn’t right, so I reduced the feed amount in early summer.”

“Alright, I’ll try my best to get more white potato vines from the village.

“Also, try not to let them breed, or else we really can’t afford to raise them.”

“I understand. It’s not the time for a last resort, so I wouldn’t let them breed.”

“Oh, where’s the water source? Is there enough water here?”

“The well at the foot of the mountain is enough,” Uncle Nian said. “I heard that the water level of the well in the village has started to drop.” At this point, the old man looked up at the huge sun and continued with a pained expression, “If this continues, I don’t know if the cattle and sheep can be raised.”

“If there’s a chance, please sell some out.”

“Alright, I’ll remember this.” Zhou Ying nodded and told him about the lamb slaughter in the afternoon.

However, she didn’t say two, but five.

The festival was coming soon, so she had to give some welfare to the other people living in the manor.

After the sheep were slaughtered in the afternoon, Gu Chengrui returned with the restaurant’s oven and iron skewers. After that, Zhou Ying directed everyone to start skewering the meat.

She cleaned up the mutton giblets from the two lambs and made a big pot of mutton soup. She also added some vermicelli, tofu skin, and dried radish..
