Chapter 13: Sweet Potato Porridge

Each year, their earnings need to be spent to buy Bai Xiaofeng inks and papers . Because of this, the Bai Family lived in poverty .

Hu Family only has 2 acres of land . Although only two people live here, their food was only enough for them . So in case of emergency, such as sickness, or if they bought some needed things, their food will be strained .

Bai Zhi sighed and then started making a fire on the stove first . Then, she boiled a pot of water . She washed the rice in another pot .

After adding some more firewood to the stove, she walked out of the kitchen and asked Hu Feng, who was currently hanging his clothes: “Hu Feng, where is your family’s food?”

Hu Feng looked back at her and then pointed his finger to a pile of blackening things in the corner of the kitchen .

These are foods?Bai Zhi took one and then came out again to asked Hu Feng: “What kind of food is this?”

However,Hu Feng ignored her and went straight into the house .

Is that guy dumb?

Bai Zhi took back the black thing in the kitchen and tried peeling the skin . After cutting a few parts, she smelled a sweet scent . It smelled like a sweet potato .

Bai Zhitasted a small piece to confirm it . It really tasted like a sweet potato, but she couldn’t understand why it looks so ugly and colored black .

If she added this sweet potato, they don’t need to eat rice soup for dinner .

Bai Zhi washed a few sweet potatoes . She peeled the skin and cut them into small pieces . Then, she threw them into the pot of water with the rice to make a sweet potato porridge .

Bai Zhi also used to eat sweet potato porridge before . Aside from its sweet taste, it can easily make a person feel full, and its a very suitable dish for poor people .

After half an hour, she put the sweet-smelled potato porridge on the table . The original watery rice soup has thickened with the rice . It looks very appetizing and smells good, which couldn’t help but attract everyone’s attention .

So, instead of waiting to be called by Hu Changlin, Hu Feng himself come out in his room on his own . When he came out, he saw the sweet potato porridge on the table . He knitted his eyebrows and looked at Bai Zhi .

Hu Changlin laughed and said: “Oh, so originally you can eat this lump like this? We only boiled it in the water, before deciding to eat it . ”

“Lump? Isn’t this a sweet potato? Why do you call it a lump?” Bai Zhi looked very curious .

Hu Changlin was also full of doubt: “This thing is called sweet potato? This is also our first time eating this . Hu Feng dug it out from the mountain . We didn’t dare to eat it at once . The rice was not enough, so I boiled this thing twice to be sure before we eat it . ”

They don’t know that it was a sweet potato… …?

When she took some of the sweet potatoes earlier, she found some green shoots . So, she said: “These two green shoots can be planted on the courtyard . It will grow on its own . After two to three months, it will bear some fruits . It doesn’t need fertilizer, so it’s very easy to take care of . ”

Hu Changlin’s eyes lit up and then laughed: “These things are good ah . When I plant the peanuts on the field, I will also plant these things . Whether it grew or not, it’s not a big loss for a simple effort . ”

Hu Feng stared at the porridge in front of him and said: “Can we eat now?” After smelling it, his stomach could no longer wait .

After he went to the field to work early this morning, he didn’t havebreakfast and lunch . He specifically waited for the meal at night .

Hu Changlin then busily said: “Let’s have dinner, I’m already hungry . I could no longer hold it . ”

Aside from Bai Zhi, it was everyone’s first time to eat a soft and sweet porridge . Hu Changlin couldn’t stop grinning because of this .

A pot of sweet potato porridge was soon eaten, Zhao Lan and Bai Zhi deliberately eat less . After all, it was someone else’s home, and the two big men were hungry the whole day . They usually don’t have compet.i.tors with the food, so the pot was soon cleaned .
