After the little boy thought for a moment, his gaze landed on the crab basket Li Xiaoran and the others had caught. He thought for a moment and asked, “Do you want crabs? I have a lot here!”

Li Xiaoran could tell what the little boy was thinking at a glance, so she said with a smile, “Yes! How much will you sell it to us for?”

The little boy thought for a moment and said, “We have little crabs here. Give us ten copper coins!”

After Li Xiaoran saw the quantity of crabs in the little boy’s bucket, she nodded.

“Alright! Zi Zheng, give them money!”

When Zi Zheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he quickly took out money from his pocket.

When the little boy saw that he could really get ten copper coins, he immediately poured the crabs in the wooden bucket over.

Li Xiaoran thought of something and added, “Hey, little guy, we still need some eggs. Go back and ask your parents if they have eggs. If they do, send some to us! ”

The boy nodded, then led the group of children back in the direction they had come from.

After watching the children leave, Li Xiaoran brought everyone back to the waterfall.

Luo Cheng was stunned when he saw that their basket was filled with crabs. He couldn’t believe it.

“You caught so many crabs in such a short period of time?”

“Half of it was caught by us, and the other half was bought from the children in the village for ten copper coins!” Li Xiaoran smiled and said, “These crabs don’t have much meat. Let’s wash them clean and remove the dirty things inside. After we cut the crabs in half, we can make fried crabs to eat! Fried crabs are delicious!”

When Shu Ruyue and the others heard Li Xiaoran’s words, they all ran over to help.

The basket of crabs was quickly cleaned and placed in a large basin.

Li Xiaoran teased with a smile, “Leave it there for now! Let’s pick up some firewood and cook fried crabs! When the villagers send the vegetables over later, we can even cook some egg and vegetable soup! Whether we can eat fish tonight depends on whether you and your men!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he immediately said, “Your man

can definitely do it!”

Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “Then we’ll wait for your fish to enter the pot!”

Luo Cheng quickly cheered on the people around him. “Brothers, you heard it. My pride depends on everyone’s hard work!”

Everyone laughed at that.

Soon, the fragrance of fried crabs wafted out. Li Xiaoran even added some chili noodles.

After a large basin of fried crabs was out of the pot, even those who originally didn’t feel hungry were a little hungry now.

At this moment, three villagers came over with some things and found Li Xiaoran and the others by the waterfall.

The little boy who had seen Li Xiaoran and the others previously said in a low voice, “Father, look, it’s them!”

Li Xiaoran happened to sense that someone was coming, so she looked up. “Are you here to give us something? Come trade with us!”

A tanned middle-aged man and a woman carried baskets containing some vegetables and eggs.

The man and woman sensed that Li Xiaoran and the others weren’t bad people, so they calmed down and walked forward.

After Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue walked forward to take a look, they realized that there were many things in the two baskets.

Tomatoes, peas, green beans, eggplants, cabbage, and spinach!

In addition, two of them had brought some cured meat and sausages, as well as eggs.

When Li Xiaoran saw that these vegetables were all very fresh, she waved her hand and accepted all of them.

Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “Name a price for these things!”

The other party didn’t expect Li Xiaoran and the others to accept all of them, so he asked in surprise, “You want all of them?”

“That’s right! As you can see, we have a lot of people! These things are only enough for two or three meals. Coincidentally, we’ll be traveling tomorrow. The things you gave us are what we need! ” Li Xiaoran said with a smile.

The man and woman exchanged looks and calculated the price of these dishes according to the price in the town market.

It cost a total of 800 copper coins. Li Xiaoran asked Zi Zheng to pay for it.

While Zi Cheng and Zi Zheng were taking these things out of the basket and putting them away, Li Xiaoran asked aloofly, “Aunt, let me ask you something.

Is there anyone in your village who is good at roasting meat and grilling fish? If White Foothill City recruits such people again, as long as they pass the test, they can work directly. The salary isn’t low, and the job is stable!” When the woman heard Li Xiaoran’s words, her eyes lit up.

“Is this true? Are you hiring women?”

Li Xiaoran immediately said, “Of course! As long as the roasted meat is good and the grilled fish is delicious, women can also work!”

The woman’s eyes were filled with anticipation. Just as she was about to say something, the man suddenly said,

“We’ll tell the people in the village! I believe those with the ability will definitely go to White Foothill City to try out after knowing about this!”

As soon as the man said this, the woman’s eyes dimmed. Then, she pursed her lips and said nothing else.

Li Xiaoran looked at the woman and then at the man not far away, her eyes filled with scrutiny.

Perhaps Li Xiaoran’s gaze was too sharp, after putting away the money, he took the basket and called her wife and child to leave.

The little boy glanced at Li Xiaoran, then pulled his mother and left.

Li Xiaoran watched the three of them leave with a solemn expression.

Luo Cheng sensed something and walked over as he asked, “What’s wrong?

Why do you suddenly look so displeased?”

Li Xiaoran said, “They’re hiding something!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he thought for a moment and said, “We can’t help them! If that woman had just spoken, we could have interfered! If one wants to change many things, one has to have the intention to change first. If one doesn’t take a step forward and extend one’s hand to ask for help, others will never be able to save you!”

Li Xiaoran also understood this, but she still felt a little uncomfortable after encountering such a thing.

After experiencing such a thing, Li Xiaoran’s mood became gloomy.

Although there was delicious food in front of her, Li Xiaoran lost her appetite and stopped eating.

That night, when the fire crackled, a voice sounded in the quiet night.

“Is what you said during the day true?”
