After Alice left, Lilac also picked up the bread and started eating.
"Elm, this bread is really delicious!" Dingxiang said in surprise. The bread here was indeed much better than the bread she had eaten before.
Yu Mu laughed. He also thought the new bread was very delicious. Since it came out, he ate two more every day than before.
The food was delicious, but the copper coins were dwindling day by day. This pained Yumu; his house repair plans would have to wait a long time.
"Elmwood, what are you laughing at? Am I wrong? And how many copper coins does this bread cost?"
Dingxiang has already eaten two loaves of bread. The thing Yumu gave her earlier must have been copper coins. I wonder how many copper coins it would cost to buy one loaf of bread?
It seems Elm doesn't have many copper coins. Do they get copper coins from mining in that mountain? And then use the copper coins to buy food here? It seems I need to go mining too, otherwise Elm's copper coins definitely won't be enough for the two of them, she has a big appetite.
"Nothing? Dingxiang, this bread is really delicious. The best bread costs three copper coins each."
Dingxiang was still surprised by what Yumu said. One loaf of bread would take three people. She wondered how many copper coins Yumu could mine in a day.
"Elm, how many copper coins do you have a day? If we eat together now, will you run out of copper coins?"
Elm handed another loaf of bread to Dingxiang, saying, "Dingxiang, copper coins are definitely enough for the two of us to eat ordinary food. You can also go work in the mines in the future."
"Okay, Elm, let's go mining together from now on."
Dingxiang was still very happy; she had no regrets about being able to be with Yumu again.
But the person she saw next stirred up her calm heart once again.
"Elm, look... over there, that person... looks like Cedar?"
Dingxiang's speech became somewhat incoherent. She quickly nudged the elm tree beside her. The person did indeed resemble the cedar tree, but after so long apart, she wasn't sure.
Elm looked at Dingxiang with a big smile, "He doesn't just look like a cedar tree, he *is* a cedar tree."
"Ah!" Yu Mu took a punch, and he paid the price for his words.
Dingxiang ignored him and excitedly ran towards the cedar tree not far away.
"Huh? You're Dingxiang? What are you doing here? Does Yumu know about this?"
Shan Shu recognized Ding Xiang at a glance, because she was still as robust as ever. But he was a little puzzled; why was Ding Xiang here?
"Are you really a cedar tree?" Dingxiang asked excitedly, her whole body trembling slightly.
"Yes, Lilac, I am Cedar, and your son Elm Glump is here too." Cedar knew what she was going to ask, so he told her in advance.
After hearing what the cedar tree said, it was hard to tell whether Dingxiang was happy, sad, or excited. She just stood there blankly, seemingly speechless.
At this moment, Yumu also came to their side. Seeing his wife standing there somewhat at a loss, Yumu quickly tried to say something to comfort her.
But just as he was about to speak, Dingxiang threw a punch at him.
"Ah!" Yu Mu originally wanted to offer some words of comfort, but now he could only manage a passive "ah."
"Elmwood, hello there! You haven't told me for so long, do you want to die?!"
Although she was cursing Elm, Dingxiang was actually very happy. She had never thought she would see Elm again in the valley. But Elm appeared right in front of her.
Long, long ago she had fantasized about seeing her son again, but she knew it was just wishful thinking.
But now the cedar tree tells her that she can see her son again.
She knew the cedar tree had no reason to lie to her; she was lucky. But there were many others who were unfortunate, who had already left forever.
This is truly a wonderful place; she not only met her husband but will soon meet her son as well.
"I must protect this place carefully," Dingxiang vowed silently in her heart.
