Chapter 9 (1/2)
”Good.” Liu Yu also agreed to lock the kitchen.
Tang Huai's eyes fell on the face of her suckling sister. ”Mom, let's name her.”
”What's your name?” Liu Yu is eating pumpkin pie.
”How about Tang Zihan?”
”If you think it's good,” Liu Yu said.
”Then Zihan.” Tang Huai said with a smile. She reached out and gently poked Tang Zihan's face.
Tang Zihan's face was soft and tender, which softened Tang Huai's heart. She said with a smile, ”Zihan must be very beautiful when she grows up.”
In the past, Tang Zihan was very beautiful, a rare beauty.
”I have finished.” Liu Yu is hungry. She ate up two pumpkin cakes in a short time.
”Any more?” Tang Huai asked.
”No more.” Liu Yu is reluctant to eat more. She wants to leave it to Tang Huai and Tang Li.
”I'll take the bowl out and wash it, ma'am. You have a good rest.”
”Good.”
Tang Huai takes the cleaned bowl back to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, I saw some toads popping out.
Tang Huai looks at them, eyes flow, Toad?
She remembered that in the last life, some villagers went to the drugstore to catch toads and sell them for eighty-nine cents a catty.
When Tang Huai knew the news, he caught a few Jin and sold it for two yuan.
Tang Huai's eyes twinkled. Didn't villagers catch toads to sell at this time?
As soon as she was happy, she put down her bowl and picked up some toads.
She wants to make a profit before the villagers get the news that toad can sell money!
In the evening, Tang Huai said to Tang Li, ”Tang Li, take good care of your mother and sister at home. Sister goes out to catch toads.”
”What do you do with toads?” The lying Liu Yu is puzzled.
”When I was selling snakes today, I saw someone selling toads to the drugstore. I asked the boss, who can make herbs and buy them in large quantities.” Tang Huai lies.
So she went out with a sack and a flashlight.
On summer nights, toads like to come and go, especially hiding.
Tang Huai wants to go to his own house to hide and catch them. He can also pull weeds for vegetables.

the village head's house is a three-story house, very imposing.
In this era, it is luxury to build such buildings.
A large front yard was also built, in which there were poplars, yellow peel fruit trees, a fish pond at the door of the house.
There is no fish in the pond. Although there are some lotus roots in the pond, the water is clear.
Opposite, it's a straight road to the entrance of the village.
Tang Huai from this road to Tibet, will pass the village head's home.
At this time, the village head's family was very busy, and almost all the people of the village came here.
Jing Xuan wants to kill the boar. The village head decides to share the pork with the villagers.
A group of men, women, old and young gathered to watch the village butcher kill wild boars.
Everyone is very happy to think that there will be pork tonight.
Tang Huai saw Jingpeng!
The evening sun, like an orange light, shines on the whole earth.
Jingpeng lies lazily on the carambola tree.
Orange light through the leaves, dotted in his body, so that the slender he, like a handsome man out of the painting.
