Hearing the children frolic in the courtyard, Lin Mo also got up, walked out of the room after somebody's activity, and looked at them silently for a few minutes. Lin Mo also learned that the four children at home stood on the big stone board to brush their teeth.

The Lin family was not rich in Daling Village, but they could also eat a full meal. The Lin family had 15 mu of paddy fields and 20 mu of dry land. Apart from the annual taxes, the rest was enough for this family's one-year rations.

But in addition to basic satiety, they needed to supplement the nutrition for the children. Lin Mo, the only ger of the Lin family, had been weak since he was a child. Lin Xiu, the second son of the Lin family, also needed a lot of silver to get his reputation.

So even though Lin Cheng, the eldest brother of the Lin family, and Father Lin made a lot of money by going out to work short-term every year, they still couldn't make the Lin family richer. Even if there were some savings in the family, they still had to prevent the children from getting sick.

Daling Village was most famous for having all kinds of fruits. Surrounded by three mountains, Daling Village only had a road to the southeast to connect the neighboring villages and the county seat.

Although there were some fruit trees in these three mountains, they were not all over the mountain now. It was because ten years ago, the supply of fruit all over the country suddenly fell short of demand, and they were in short supply until they saw the remote county town.

Other people saw the business opportunities, and the farmers were not stupid, so they began to plant fruit trees on the hills that were divided into their own homes. In the first two years, all the families in Daling village made a lot of money, but then they couldn't sell them again after the initial success.

Now, apart from occasionally picking some for the family to eat, the rest was left to fall and rot, and nobody cared. The mountain orchard had become a place for children to play in Daling Village, and because of poor management, there were fewer fruit trees.

The grass in the field had been removed for more than half a month. Today, Father Lin and Big Brother Lin Cheng planned to go deeper into the mountain to hunt and find herbs.

As the ancients said, they should depend on the mountain to feed the mountain and the water to feed the water. 1

In addition to farming, the men in the village worked part-time to hunt in the three mountains around Daling Village. Even if they couldn't hunt big guys to increase their family's income, they could still hunt small ones to add meat and vegetables to the family table.

After breakfast, Father Lin and Eldest Brother Lin took their things and went out. Because the farm work was temporarily finished, Mama Lin and sister-in-law Lin stayed at home to embroider some things and planned to sell them in the town next time they went to the market.

"Mom, Little Brother, and I are going to pick some fruit at the foot of the mountain."

Mama Lin was surprised to hear Mo'ger's initiative to go out of the house, but she still didn't object. It was better to go out for a walk, so he didn't have to stay at home all day.

"Go ahead, don't run to the mountain, Little Xing. Look after your Fourth Brother. Don't get heatstroke at noon."

"I know, ma'am." Lin Xing put the basket beside the wall onto his back.

"Fourth Uncle, I will go too." As soon as Lin Xiaoya heard that Fourth Uncle was about to go out, her eyes brightened. She quickly stood up with both hands and walked to Lin Mo with short legs.

On the other side, Lin Xiaonan, who was playing with the chickens, suddenly felt that the chickens were not very entertaining any longer. He turned around to look at Lin Mo, and his eyes were full of expectation.
