Adorable Twins: A Hunter's Wife Has Space

Chapter 22: Saving More Silver Before Winter

The sky was slightly bright, and there was no other sound in the courtyard except the crickets.

Su Li was still sleeping soundly on the bed when a tall figure walked towards their house with a bucket of water.

Woosh~

It was the sound of He Yufeng pouring water into the water tank.

Su Li opened her sleepy eyes. She glanced out of the window and turned around to continue sleeping.

The sound of chopping wood began to come from the courtyard.

Su Li scratched her head in frustration. Why was he making a din so early in the morning? How can she sleep like this?

If she didn't sleep enough, her temper would be bad. It was commonly known as "waking up grumpy!"

Su Li opened the door and said angrily to He Yufeng, "Can't you do something else first? You made such a big commotion so early in the morning. Can't you let me sleep peacefully?"

He Yufeng looked at Su Li's disheveled hair and how she was glaring at him with her almond-shaped eyes. He felt that this was a little cute.

No, why did he think this woman was cute?

He Yufeng's face darkened when he realized what had happened.

"Got it."

Su Li looked at He Yufeng's dark face and did not take it to heart. After all, it had not been a day or two since He Yufeng disliked her. It was not the first time he had given her attitude.

After saying that, Su Li turned around and returned to her room to continue sleeping.

When there was movement in the courtyard again, Su Li also got up from the bed.

Su Li was still the one who made breakfast. It was mainly because He Yufeng's culinary skills were too poor. In order not to be poisoned, it was better to do it herself.

Su Li made mixed grain porridge, baked a few wild vegetable pancakes, and made a few buns using oil.

A fragrance wafted out of the kitchen.

"It smells so good!" He Erhu swallowed his saliva.

He Dahu couldn't help but look at the kitchen.

"Wash your hands and eat." Su Li placed the things on the table.

He Dahu and He Erhu immediately went to wash their hands when they heard that it was time to eat.

The two of them looked at the buns on the table and drooled. However, since Su Li did not speak, they did not dare to move.

"Eat." Su Li gave them a bun each.

He Yufeng only ate the wild vegetable pancakes and did not touch the buns.

"Dad, have some buns." He Dahu gave He Yufeng a bun.

He Yufeng stroked his head and smiled as he split the bun into two. It was as if it was for the brother to share them.

"I don't like buns. You guys can eat them!"

Su Li glanced at He Yufeng. There was nothing to say about how he treated the children. No wonder the host could control him so well.

The soap could already be removed from the mold. Su Li planned to take all the soap out of the molds and pack them up. Tomorrow was the market day, and she was going to exchange the soap for money.

He Dahu and He Erhu saw that she was busy and ran over to help.

With their help, their speed was obviously much faster. Su Li looked at the two little fellows who were seriously taking the soaps off their molds and sighed in her heart. Putting everything else aside, these two children were really obedient.

He Yufeng was making a chair in the courtyard. Su Li went over to take a look and realized that the chair was not bad. The details were handled very well and there were no burrs at all. If they wanted to sell it in the market, there would be no problems.

Su Li praised him generously. "Your craft skills are not bad. You can consider making chairs to sell."

It was too dangerous to go hunting in the mountains. The periphery of the mountain was filled with small prey that were not worth much money, so every time He Yufeng went deep into the mountains, he would go for a few days.

If he had the skills, he might as well make tables and chairs at home to sell. That way, the risk would not be so high and he could still look after the children.

He Yufeng's hands did not stop moving as he explained, "I only know how to make simple tables and chairs. I don't know how to customize furniture. Nowadays, many people customize their furniture when they get married."

"Even if we sell chairs, we won't be able to earn much money. It's already a problem for us to earn a living with that little money, let alone give it to Mother..."

He Yufeng did not finish his sentence, but Su Li understood.

Selling chairs did not earn them as much money as compared to hunting. They still had to give the old residence seven taels of silver every month. If he did not go hunting, they would not be able to afford it.

Su Li rubbed her temples. Seven taels a month was a little tricky. The mess left behind by the original owner was really worrying.

He Yufeng looked at He Dahu and He Erhu, who were playing in the courtyard, and said,

"I plan to go hunting in the mountains tomorrow. I have to save more silver before winter comes. Otherwise, there will be fewer prey in winter."

He had to quickly save some silver before winter arrived. This way, even if winter came, he wouldn't have to worry about not having enough money to pay the old residence. The child didn't even have two decent cotton clothes. Every winter, they would freeze. This year, he wanted to make a cotton shirt for the child.

Su Li nodded. "Got it. I'm going to the market tomorrow. Let Sister Chen Xiang take care of the children for us."

He Yufeng looked up at Su Li in surprise. In the past, Su Li had never told him about these things. If he was going out, Su Li couldn't wait to get him to scram immediately.

Furthermore, she would not tell him about her arrangements or care about the children. Over the past few days, Su Li seemed to have been possessed by a ghost and had become a completely different person.

"What's wrong? Is there something dirty on my face?"

Seeing that He Yufeng was staring at her, Su Li couldn't help but touch her face.

He Yufeng shook his head. "No."

After the soap was made, Su Li kept one for herself and gave one each to the three of them. However, He Yufeng rejected Su Li's good intentions and reasoned that he, a man, didn't need these things.

Su Li did not force him. It was good that He Yufeng did not use it. She could still sell it for an additional sum of money.

When He Yufeng was home, he would help the two children shower. Su Li was happy and relaxed, and the two little guys were more relaxed too.

"This thing smells so good," He Erhu said excitedly.

He Yufeng did not expect Su Li to be able to make something like this. At first, he did not believe it, but now that he was bathing He Erhu with soap, he clearly felt that He Erhu's skin had become much smoother.

Su Li circled the village a few times. No matter how busy she was, she couldn't give up on her big goal of losing weight.

After taking a shower, Su Li locked the door. After confirming that there was no problem, she flashed into the interspace.

The chili peppers on the black soil were growing well. They should be ready to be harvested in a few days.

She found that the interspace had one advantage, which was that she could control the crops on the black soil with her mind. She did not have to do anything like planting chili, weeding, plowing, and harvesting.

Su Li was very satisfied with this. She was already busy enough during the day. If she were to enter the interspace at night to do farm work, wouldn't she be exhausted?

She scooped up the spring water and took a sip. The fresh, sweet taste entered her mouth. Her exhaustion was swept away. She took another sip and realized that she had recovered a lot.

Su Li's eyes lit up. She didn't expect spring water to have such an effect. She had always thought that this spring water was just ordinary spring water. She had been very busy recently, so she didn't have time to study it.

Looking at the clear spring, Su Li had an idea.
