119 Preparing to Move
Liu Shi asked someone to check the date. In 3 days would be the auspicious day to move into the new house.
Of course, the Liu family would not be idle these few days.
They would do some cleaning for the house, and then move all the things and furniture that they bought into the house.
The money in Lin Xiaoyue’s pocket was still flowing out rapidly.
Those who worked at the Liu family before came to ask when they would hold a housewarming party.
Liu Shi originally thought that they didn’t know many people, and they had spent a lot of money to build the house, so she didn’t want to do it.
However, Lin Xiaoyue agreed to the housewarming party.
“This is a big event for us. We should have a good time!” Lin Xiaoyue said to Liu Shi.
“But…” Liu Shi was worried that the family did not have enough money.
“Don’t worry, mom. Other than the village chief’s family, Aunt Wang’s family, and those who came to help with the construction, we won’t invite anyone else. There shouldn’t be many who show up uninvited, so we should be able to prepare just 6 or 7 tables.”
“I’ll go into the mountains and hunt. There will be meat dishes,” Li Xiao said.
He knew that she wanted to build a relationship with the villagers.
“It’s already the middle of summer. Won’t it be difficult to hunt?” Liu Shi looked at Li Xiao.
During the construction of the house, Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao went into the mountains to hunt from time to time so that they could sell them for some money to cover the costs.
However, no matter how many animals there were in the mountains, there was still a limit. It was not as easy to hunt now as it was in the early summer. Recently, she noticed that they didn’t have a good yield.
“There’s not many wild animals in the back mountain, but there’s still quite a lot if we go deep into the mountains.” Li Xiao said.
After the number of animals had decreased, he thought of going deep into the mountains.
However, the journey into the deep mountains was longer, and the situation was more complicated, so the round trip would take a lot of time. He didn’t have time then.
Now that the house had been built, he could help earn some money.
“No, it’s too dangerous in the mountains.” Liu Shi said immediately.
Li Xiao didn’t reply.
After coming to this family, Liu Shi treated him and Qing’er with sincerity.
Lin Xiaoyue also did not reply.
After she paid for the furniture and bought some other things, she would not have much money left.
After the autumn harvest, the academies in the town would recruit new students in early October. She was planning to send Xiaozhi and Qing’er to the academy.
She really didn’t want to give up on hunting.
Seeing that the two of them didn’t reply, Liu Shi knew what they were thinking.
“Since there are not many animals in the mountains now, don’t go there anymore.”
“Don’t you want to sell cold glutinous cakes? Try that.” Liu Shi said.
Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes flashed with hesitation, and then she nodded.
“Alright, mom.”
Forget it. She was confident that she could enter the deep mountains, but it was hard to say for Li Xiao.
The mountain road was difficult to walk on, and there were many beasts in the deep mountains. Li Xiao didn’t have any special abilities or an interspatial ring for storage, so it was actually quite dangerous for him to go.
It was early August, and the temperature in Diashi Village would usually drop in late October. Then, it would quickly enter winter in mid-November. Even if they continued to hunt in the mountains, they wouldn’t be able to do so for long.
It was better to plan and look for other ways to make a living.
Hearing Lin Xiaoyue’s response, Liu Shi was relieved.
Then, he looked at Li Xiao.
“Yes, aunt.” Li Xiao finally said.
“Don’t think about anything else these few days. When you’re free, go and pick up more firewood. The woodshed is big, so we don’t have to worry about not having enough space. The party will be held the day after tomorrow, and it will need a lot of firewood.” Liu Shi said.
“Yes.” Li Xiao responded.
