Li Wenxiu asked in surprise: "Mingxuan, where did the bird eggs come from?"
In the past, wild eggs were often picked up on the mountain, but since the drought started last year, these are rarely seen.
"Uncle Yongchang picked them up on the mountain. Aunt Yongchang gave me two and asked me to bring them back to replenish my sister's health."
He took the two eggs to his mother and said, "Mom, you put them away and cook them for my sister at night."
Li Wenxiu took it carefully and sighed: "Your Uncle Yongchang and your Aunt Yongchang are both good people.
In this day and age, relatives will turn against each other just to order some food. They got a few bird eggs and distributed them to our family. This is to remember the friendship between you and your father since childhood. "
Ye Yutong nodded in agreement. When she was escaping, if Uncle Yongchang and Aunt Yongchang hadn't been protecting her at all times, the old witch would have sold her halfway.
She suddenly remembered what was written in the book. The original owner spent a lot of money on medical treatment, and their family did not buy food today.
A few days later, the price of food had risen to a ridiculous level. When the original owner woke up, Li Wenxiu spent all the money in the family to buy food, but it was only a dozen liters.
If their family could buy as much food as today in the previous life, Li Wenxiu wouldn't have starved to death so early. If she had protected him, Ye Mingxuan wouldn't have been beaten to death, right?
"Mom, brother, sister, come in and drink some water."
Ye Mingzhe took out the casserole filled with water. This was the boiling water he had boiled in the morning, and he was waiting for his mother and the others to drink it when they came back.
Ye Mingxuan poured two bowls and let his mother and sister drink first. After they finished drinking, he and his brother each held a bowl and started drinking.
After taking a short rest in the house, the brothers began to move the stove to their mother and sister's room.
Li Wenxiu put on his backpack, picked up the machete he bought last time, and prepared to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables for food.
Ye Mingxuan stopped her and said, "Mom, you can stay at home today. My second brother and I will go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables later.
I just met Ye Daqing and Ye Mingxiang back at the entrance of the village. They were still carrying their luggage. I wonder if they were driven back by the academy?
If the old witch goes crazy and comes to the house to cause trouble, her sister and brother-in-law will definitely suffer. "
Li Wenxiu was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, you two don't go to the mountains, just dig some wild vegetables nearby. You must be back before the sun goes down."
"I understand, mother, let's go."
Li Wenxiu filled the bamboo tube he just bought with water and gave it to the brothers: "Go! Pay attention to safety."
Ye Yutong sent his two brothers to the door. Seeing that there was no one outside, he took out two cucumbers. "Brother, second brother, eat quickly before anyone finds out."
The two quickly took the cucumber and stuffed it into their sleeves. Then they looked around again and were relieved when they saw no one there.
She smiled and glanced at their actions, "Big brother, second brother, come back early and I will get you something delicious in the evening."
"I understand, sister, the sun is shining brightly outside, please go inside and take a rest."
Ye Yutong smiled and waved to them, and the two brothers saw their sister entering the house before walking up the mountain.
Li Wenxiu built a simple stove with a few stones and watched her come in.
He smiled and asked, "Tongtong, are you tired? Lie down and take a nap. Mom will boil eggs for you tonight."
Ye Yutong was a little tired, but he remembered the noodles made in the space in the morning and was ready to go in and steam the buns.
She whispered: "Mom, I'll go to the gods to have a look first."
Li Wenxiu nodded. Remembering that there was someone next door, she raised her voice and said, "Mom, I know, then you can go to sleep. I won't disturb you."
Ye Yutong thought she was quite cautious, so he smiled and entered the space.
This small courtyard in the space can be regarded as a small courtyard. There are three main rooms and two side rooms on the left and right.
In the middle of the main room is the living room, which contains a set of sofas, coffee tables, TV cabinets, and various furnishings. The east house is a large bedroom plus study room, and the west house has two bedrooms.
There are also two side rooms on the left and right in the courtyard, two side rooms on the east, one for storing sundries, the other for the kitchen, and the two on the west for toilets and showers.
When she first got this space, there was nothing in it. She bought the furniture and appliances bit by bit.
She also bought the paint to paint the big white on the wall. Although it is not as good as professionals, it is still passable.
Even the wooden floor in the bedroom was laid by her online. It looks clean and warm.
Ye Yutong likes to cook by himself, so the kitchen furniture is also fully equipped, including electric pots, woks, pressure cookers, frying pans, steamers, ovens, microwaves, air fryers, and various plates and bowls... Put the kitchen shelves on and cupboards are full.
There was an earthen stove in the kitchen, so she didn't waste it. She bought a big iron pot and put it on it, and cooked it when she wanted to eat firewood rice.
She sighed softly. If she hadn't traveled through time, she would be enjoying life in the countryside now. I don't know how comfortable those days would be.
Ye Yutong took a small piece of bread and a carton of milk, ate them while lying on the sofa, and then got up and went to the kitchen.
The noodles had already risen a bit and overflowed from the basin. She quickly poured the noodles onto the chopping board and started kneading them.
But after rubbing it for a few times, I started to sweat. This body had lost too much blood last time, and after walking for such a long time this morning, it was really too much.
She kneaded it casually for a few times, then put the steamed buns in the pot to steam, preparing for Li Wenxiu to come in and make them later. She needs to take a good rest these days, take good care of herself, and run fast on the road to escape.
I put the steamed buns in the pot to steam, washed a few eggs and put them on the steamer, and went to the fields to see that the vegetables and grains were all harvested.
There are several vegetables that are a bit old and can no longer be eaten if they are not harvested. They can only be used as seeds.
She really didn't have the strength to do it, so she planned to bring her mother in and ask her to collect them and put them in the basement so as not to delay the growth of the crops in the field.
From now on, the five or six members of their family will have enough to eat, and the half-grown children will eat the poor old man. The land cannot be left idle, and the open space next to it should also be planted with food.
If she finds another opportunity to bring Ye Mingxuan and Ye Mingzhe in to work, she won't keep those two boys in vain. If they don't help with the work and want to eat her in vain, there is no way.
When she steamed the buns and came out, Li Wenxiu was not in the room. The pots and stoves had been put away, and the house was swept clean.
She opened the door and saw no one in the yard, so she opened the fence gate and walked to the path. She saw Li Wenxiu digging wild vegetables not far away, and called out, "Mom."
Hearing her voice, Li Wenxiu hurriedly came over with a basket, "Tongtong, are you awake?"
Ye Yutong nodded and said in a low voice: "Mom, stop digging for wild vegetables. The food and vegetables from the gods are all ripe, and there are also eggs on the hillside that need to be picked up.
I feel dizzy when I move now, and I really don’t have the energy to do it. Please go in and help clean it up. "
