C12 They Were Going to Send Money

The brothers also took off their clothes and went to bed.

Mu Zhizhi's bamboo bed was next to their bed. Today it was Mu Guangyao's turn to watch her sleep, but thinking that they still had to go to the black market tomorrow morning, Mu Anze changed seats with him.

Leaning to the side, Mu Anze's burning gaze lingered on the sleeping little girl. Thinking about what happened today, Mu Anze happily curled his lips.

Their younger sister was not stupid. It was all Mu Tongtong's fault that she was too bad, that she would be fooled into doing so many stupid things.

He had to find an opportunity to scare that Mu Tongtong and let her avoid Zhizhi when she saw her in the future.

Because he was thinking about the goods he was hiding and the situation in the basket, Mu Guangyao woke up a little more.

He had just gotten up and put on his clothes when the cold wind poured into the blanket. He did not need to shout and Mu Churong also woke up.

The two of them rubbed their sleepy eyes and regained some clarity. Then, they tiptoed out of the bed.

They didn't want to wake anyone, but they saw their sister rubbing her eyes on the bamboo bed and sitting up as well.

"Brother."

A weak voice that sounded like a kitten sounded.

Mu Guangyao hurriedly made a shushing gesture at her, then walked over to help her put on her clothes, and then carried her out together.

"Zhizhi is not sleeping anymore? Are you sleepy?" Mu Churong pointed at the tip of the little nose and asked with a smile.

"I'm not tired!" Mu Zhizhi raised her little head and snorted softly.

A pair of bright eyes flashed and flickered in the dark night like two little stars.

Mu Chu could not bear to kiss her. "Then let little brother hug you first. When we reach the black market, I will buy you a meat bag to eat."

"Okay, let's eat the meat bag together." Mu Zhizhi licked her red lips and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

That gluttonous look of hers amused her two brothers.

Mu Churong returned to his room and carried out the big bamboo basket from the second room. Only then did the three of them take advantage of the moonlight and rush up the mountain.

The autumn night was so dark that they could not even see their hands.

Their family was so poor that they did not even have a torch wrapped in pine resin. They could only carefully hold Mu Zhizhi in their arms, afraid that she would fall.

Mu Zhizhi reached her goal and was very obedient. No matter how tired she was, she would obediently lie on Mu Guangyao's shoulder and not cry.

When they reached the riverside, Mu Churong took off his shoes on the shore, touched the darkness, and reached into the middle of the water bit by bit.

He found a grass rope tied to a big rock and lifted it. The heavy weight was not something he could lift alone.

This made his heart jump.

"Guangyao, come quickly! There's a lot of stuff!" Mu Churong shouted in excitement.

Mu Guangyao frowned. "If you can't carry it by yourself, then bring it up in batches. I don't feel at ease leaving Zhizhi by the shore."

"Little brother, I'll be good. I'll be on the shore. I won't run around." Mu Zhizhi quickly propped up her neck and made a crisp guarantee.

"Yes, our Zhizhi is the most obedient, but little brother only wants to hug you. We will let your second brother soak in the water. He definitely wants to trick me into going down. Then he secretly ran up to hug you. " Mu Guangyao rubbed the tip of her nose and said with a smile.

Not to mention whether his sister would run to the river on a whim, there were wild beasts in the depths of the mountain. How could he leave his sister alone on the shore?

You can trick me!

Mu Zhizhi looked innocently at Mu Guangyao like a kitten, wanting to protest.

Mu Churong replied in the river, "Okay, you stay on the shore and watch Zhizhi. I will carry her up one by one."

His hand touched a basket and found a circle along the periphery. He picked up the rope tied to the basket and took out a small knife from his pocket. He cut it off and immediately carried the basket back to the shore.

He ran back and forth six times. Because he was afraid of falling into the river, he was so nervous that he did not even dare to breathe.

When he carried all of them to the shore, his body was covered in a thin layer of sweat.

Mu Guangyao carried Mu Zhizhi to his side and squatted down. In his hand was a pile of grass vines that he had just plucked.

"Give Zhizhi a hug and rest for a while. Go and make more grass ropes. There are all kinds of goods inside." Mu Churong moved his sore arms and wiped the water off his hands before taking the small milk bag over.

"Liu is so awesome!" Mu Zhizhi's happy eyebrows curved into two crescent moons as she forcefully chirped on Mu Churong's face.

Mu Churong suddenly felt like he had been injected with stimulants and became energetic.

Mu Guangyao's eyes were filled with jealousy. He looked at them and lowered his head to weave grass ropes.

He was very fast, and in a short while, he had made dozens of grass ropes.

Only then did he open the basket and pour out the things inside.

Six crabs that were worth more than four taels waved their large pincers and arrogantly wanted to escape.

Mu Guangyao quickly grabbed one and tied it up with a grass rope and threw it to the side.

The remaining crabs had not run far before they were caught by him.

There was still a small portion of the meat left. Mu Guangyao picked it up and threw it into the basket.

Although he had definitely earned the money to buy meat, how could he bear to waste it?

In total, there were 30 crabs that weighed more than four taels of silver in the six baskets, and there were also two fish that weighed nearly six kilograms.

Including the three crabs and a fish in the afternoon, it could be said that they had a bountiful harvest today.

"I'm not dreaming, am I?" Mu Churong swallowed his saliva and sighed.

Mu Guangyao looked at him and said, "Good job!"

"It's not a dream! There are really a lot of crabs and ugly fish!" Mu Zhizhi opened her small mouth and bit Mu Churong's face.

A faint pain came, and he finally believed what he saw was real.

"Zhizhi doesn't kiss brother? Brother also did a lot of things." Mu Guangyao suppressed his jealousy and smiled as he moved closer to Mu Zhizhi.

"Chirp!"

Mu Zhizhi kissed him heavily and hugged his neck with a smile, "Little brother is awesome! We want to eat bags!"

"Okay! Bring Zhizhi to eat the meat bag." Mu Guangyao carried her back into his arms and got up to kick Mu Churong, who was still sitting on the ground and resting. "I have tied up the six baskets. You can put them in the river. We are in a hurry. We can't waste time on the road. "

"I know, take your feet away." Mu Churong got up from the ground, picked up the basket, and went down the river in the dark.

He only returned to the shore after making sure that he tied it up on the big stone and would not be washed away.

He wiped the water on his legs on his pants, put on his shoes, and put the tied crabs and fish into the bamboo basket. Then he carried the heavy goods and rushed to the county with Mu Guangyao.

Their village was nearly two hours away from the county's black market. Because the goods on their backs were heavier, they were slower and took two and a half hours to arrive.

There were already many people in the black market. All the good stalls had been occupied. They could only find a place in the back that was not very eye-catching and put out the crabs and armored fish.

Mu Guangyao handed Mu Zhizhi to Mu Churong and reminded him worriedly.

"Don't go around randomly. Just carry Zhizhi and wait at a farther place. Once I sell things here, quickly come over and take the money away. Buy some meat buns for Zhizhi to eat. You must not put Zhizhi down. What if someone comes with an armband to catch her? This person will easily push Zhizhi away in a mess."
