Chapter 36 Envy

Grinding noodles is a time-consuming and labor-intensive work. Yin Bowu and Yin Chengyun grinded for two days in the backyard, and only three buckets of wheat were produced, but this was more than enough for a family meal.

Yin Miao loves noodles, but she can't make them, so she can only help Yunhe, such as making some soup on the noodles.

"Miss Yin wants to eat noodles with sauce?"

Yunhe saw that Yin Miao had chopped the fried pork slices into minced meat again, thinking that she was going to make a topping sauce.

"Have you ever eaten fried noodles?" Yin Miao asked.

Yunhe shook his head: "Never heard of it."

"I have eaten it, but I don't know how to make it. Knead the dough very vigorously, drizzle it with the prepared chili oil, and then season it as a side dish..."

Yin Miao said while recalling that she had spent a few years in the end of the world, and her memory of the oil-splashed noodles she had eaten before had faded a lot.

I thought Yunhe would find it difficult to make, but when the bowl of oil-splashed noodles was made, Yin Miao was surprised to find that it looked like seven points! Except that there is no spare vinegar at home, Yunhe's craftsmanship of making noodles is simply superb!

"Yunhe, you're too good, right? If you want to change the master someday, you must consider me first. Your craftsmanship can really be a chef."

Yin Miao couldn't help but praise after tasting the noodles in the bowl.

"Miao'er, how can you talk nonsense like this?" Mrs Wei, who was cooking noodles, was about to be laughed at by Yin Miao, because the master replaced the master, how could there be a reason for the slave to replace the master?

"I didn't talk nonsense."

Yin Miao wanted to refute, but remembered that her thoughts were different from those of this era, so she just lowered her head and muttered.

"Yunhe does not serve two masters in this life."

He, like Yunjiang, is a dead man.

"Then I can only envy your master."

Yin Miao spoke the truth, even if her relatives were on the side, she would not necessarily do her best like Yunhe Yunjiang.

Yunhe's oil-splashed noodles was not only praised by the family, but even Xiao Xuan used an extra bowl.

"I've never eaten you make this before."

Xiao Xuan asked inadvertently.

"It's the method that Miss Yin said earlier, and Yunhe is also trying it for the first time." Yunhe answered truthfully.

"You are familiar with her?" Xiao Xuan's eyes were a little more probing.

"Most of the food used by the Yin family was found or grown by Miss Yin everywhere."

Yunhe's expression did not change.

"Oh? It's much more interesting than her back then."

Xiao Xuan raised the corners of his lips, the voice he heard when he was unconscious was also her, right? I just don't know... what is her purpose?



The cassava found on Changling Mountain is the most talked about in Changling Village in the past few days. Wei Lizheng also specifically persuaded some people who had dug up the cassava to donate one, and found a piece of land in Changling Village for cultivation. For cassava.

"If this can be planted, there won't be so many people in the village starving to death this year."

Wei Lizheng said with a worried face. Recently, more and more elderly people have died in the village. Although everyone didn't talk about it on the surface, they actually knew it well.

The price of food has risen, and the yamen will also increase taxes. Life is hopeless, and some older villagers are silently resisting as if they have made an appointment: hunger strike.

However, their resistance did not attract the attention of the yamen.

"Lizheng, go take a look, someone else went to Yin's house to make trouble,"

Villager Zhang Fugui ran over from a narrow road on the right and shouted.

"What's wrong?"

Is it Sun Heshun again?

"No, it seems that Mrs. Miao wants to borrow someone's horse and carriage, so she said that she somehow stayed at the door of her house."

Zhang Fugui was tired from running, and bent down and replied.

"I'll take a look."

Wei Lizheng remembered Miao Caichun's behavior, and he couldn't help sighing again in his heart. The family had just been living a little better recently, and he was envied by others.

A lot of people were already standing outside the broken courtyard of the Yin family. Yin Bowu and Yin Chengyun were guarding the courtyard gate and did not let anyone in. The yard is full of things they have worked so hard to plant. It would be a pity if the villagers accidentally trampled on them.

Miao Caichun's voice is not small, she was still chattering when Wei Li was arriving: "Isn't it just to borrow your carriage for two days, your horses are idle anyway, we will return them as they are in a few days, right?"

"Sister-in-law Miao, look at what you said, this horse is very tight. If something goes wrong during this period, how will you compensate others? It's not easy to say."

Ma Cuihua retorted that she knew that Miao Caichun's daughter was going to marry in a neighboring village, so she thought of using a carriage to put some dowry, which would also save her daughter's face, but the carriage belonged to the Yin family.

"What's so bad about this? We love and care for what doesn't matter, so let's borrow it, don't you think?"

Miao Caichun grinned and asked again.

Wei's third wife has some headaches, how have they seen such a difficult woman? The whole family refused, but the woman seemed to be incomprehensible.

"Miao's sister-in-law, if they don't want to borrow it, you can go back. Why bother?"

Wei Lizheng also began to persuade him, but no matter how much he persuaded, it was fruitless.

"Auntie can borrow the carriage." As soon as Yin Miao's words came out, Miao Caichun immediately smiled and said, "This girl is sensible, so I can borrow it."

"Miao'er?" Zhang Shi wanted to ask in confusion, but heard Yin Miao speak again.

"I have been to the county, and I see that there are horse farms in the county where you can rent horses, but you just have to pay some deposit. If my aunt wants to rent it, you can pay a deposit of 30 taels. We are all in the same village. Return it on time, we will return all the 30 taels of silver, how about it?"

The surrounding villagers all gasped, 30 taels of silver? Who can afford this?

"The carriage and horses are more than 30 taels of silver, and the girls don't want much."

Mrs. Li said from the side.

"Look, they all belong to the villagers. Is it so difficult to borrow your carriage?"

Miao Caichun has already reacted, this little girl is trying to trick her.

"It's all from the villagers, and it's not that you don't pay back the money you set, so you can borrow it and pay it back."

Yin Miao simply pulled over a small wooden bench and sat down and said.

The Yin family usually comes into contact with people who are reasonable, the so-called people who don't reach out and don't smile. Miao Caichun saw this to make them embarrassed, and then took advantage of the situation to borrow the carriage. Anyway, she is quite free now, so she doesn't mind Play Tai Chi with this person for a while.

Miao Caichun felt that she had met an opponent, she finally glanced at Yin Miao angrily, and then left the Yin Family Courtyard angrily.

After Miao Caichun left, Wei Xingchang took a look outside at the unobstructed Yin's yard, and left a message to the family with a complicated expression: "The horse and carriage, you should take care of them in the backyard."

The family looked at each other in dismay, couldn't they keep a few horses in their yard?

"Father, can you build walls?"

Yin Miao instantly understood what Lizheng meant, so she asked.
