2nd day

As usual, Bai Xiao woke up early to prepare breakfast for her family.

He had been studying medicine to begin with, so he was rather concerned about health care.

In her previous life, she had always slept early and woke up early, unlike some young people who often stayed up late.

In ancient times, there weren't many recreational activities. He would return to his room early in the evening. Furthermore, he had plenty of time in his room. He would wake up before dawn due to having a good rest.

After making breakfast for their family, everyone else had woken up as well.

These days, Bai Xiao had been cooking breakfast, so Madame Yang felt a little embarrassed.

"Sister-in-law, let's make breakfast together in the future."

"It's fine, I only know how to cook. Sister-in-law is already tired enough making clothes and shoes for her family."

She knew how to sew people with her embroidery needles, but if she had to sew cloth with a needle, she would only poke her own hand.

A few days ago, when she saw Mrs. Yang and Madame Yang embroidery, her hands were so cheap that she wanted to try it out.

Seeing that Bai Xiao was not only unable to be a female disciple, but had also injured herself, Mrs. Yang's heart ached and she no longer dared to call her that.

Yang Chonghuan went for a stroll in the fields as usual when he woke up in the morning, before returning to eat.

Normally when he came back, he would tell everyone how nice the bean sprouts in the fields looked.

But today, he came back depressed.

During the meal, Mrs. Yang could not help but ask: "Boss, what happened to you? Who pissed you off? "

Yang Chonghuan took a steamed bun and took a big bite.

"Our bean sprout has been spoiled by that damned beast. Hmph, I'll install a trap on the ground later. When I catch it, I'll make it suffer!"

"Was it a lot?"

Madame Yang said anxiously. After all, her home was just a small place, and sshe hoped that after the new year, he would be able to provide some things to improve her family's usage.

In the second and third month of the new year, it was the time when they would not accept. Without food, it would not be easy to live without money.

When Xiao just entered the door, she lost her body due to hunger at Bai Family. What would she do if she starved to death then?

It had to be said that these two daughter-in-law s of the Yang Family were both good, and weren't selfish people.

"Not much. But if they come back at that time, we can't say for sure. Our family's closest to the Yunshen Mountain, there will always be those things that run out to harm our crops. "

Yang Dingchu replied: "Don't worry big brother, I will accompany you to install a few beast traps."

"Then hurry up and eat. We'll go after eating."

He stuffed half of the steamed bun in his hand into his mouth, causing everyone to twitch at the corner of their eyes.

Madame Yang passed him a bowl of porridge, "Drink some porridge, and be careful not to choke."

"It's fine, I can't choke."

Right after he finished speaking, Yang Chonghuan's eyes opened wide as he stretched his neck.

Mrs. Yang patted his back hard, "Are you choking? "Serves you right."

Yang Chonghuan then swallowed the steamed bun down before feeling better and chuckled.

After breakfast, Yang Chonghuan and Yang Dingchu went to the fields, where they continued to make winter shoes for their family.

Qing'er also took a needle and imitated embroidery at the side.

Yang Wenyi dealt with the panthers and deer Bai Xiao and the others brought back.

When Bai Xiao saw the venison, she thought of an idea.

"Dad, can you help me cut the venison into fists as big as my fist?"

Yang Wenyi didn't ask why, he would do whatever Bai Xiao said he would do.

Bai Xiao found a big basin and filled it up with the venison that Yang Wenyi cut off.

After she finished slicing, Bai Xiao found some salt and various seasonings to marinate the venison.

There weren't many snacks to eat in the ancient times. To use venison as jerky and eat it as snacks seemed pretty good?

When Yang Dingchu and Yang Chonghuan returned from the fields, they saw that Bai Xiao had pickled all of the venison, they asked in astonishment.

"We can't finish all the meat. I was planning to sell it in the town in two days when the market arrives, but now you're marinating it."

"Sure." There were only a few people in his family who had so much meat. When the time came, he would send some to the Minister Li's family, and there would still be a lot left over.

After being pickled for half a day, Bai Xiao finally brought the cured meat to the pot to cook.

200 jin of deer skin, organs, bones, etc. They also had 100 jin of pure meat.

Bai Xiao cooked half of it into the Five Flavors and the other half into the Ma La Taste.

The price of Zanthoxylum bungeanum was relatively high. Normally, people wouldn't buy it for their own use. After all, it was just a condiment, whether or not it was available was fine.

Therefore, there were no peppers in Yang Family's kitchen.

Bai Xiao had harvested the pepper from Yunshen Mountain. Although it was not as good as the pepper that had been improved on many times in her previous life, at least it was a pepper.

busied himself in the kitchen throughout the day. Seeing that there were not many firewood in the kitchen, he went up the mountain and carried back two dry trees that were as thick as thighs.

When dinner was ready, the one hundred catties of venison was finally ready.

Smelling the fragrant venison, they were all swallowing their saliva.

The dinner was very simple, but also very rich. There were sweet potato porridge, two plates of deer meat with different tastes, and a plate of white cabbage with vinegar on it.

Bai Xiao was willing to put oil in the dish and add seasonings. The cabbage that she originally did not like was so fragrant after being stir-fried like this by her, and she had even cooked a meal on top of that.

With two plates of venison, the three men each drank a cup of wine.

Yang Wenyi loved to drink alcohol everyday, so without a doubt, it was extremely beautiful when he drank wine and ate the stewed venison.

"I didn't expect the venison would be so tasty."

There were some who sold cooked meat outside, but that meat was made from salt water. Aside from the salty taste, there was no other flavor, and it was also very fishy.

What Bai Xiao had cooked, had an extremely fragrant smell, and it didn't have the slightest bit of an ambrosial taste.

Madame Yang said: "If you bring this meat that your sister-in-law makes to the town, perhaps it would sell for a good price."

"I'm just going to sell the rest in town."

Mrs. Yang said: "We have all tasted it, let's sell it."

Madame Yang replied: That's right, I still need a lot of silver to build a house, it doesn't matter if I eat it or not, if I don't have any silver to build a house, it's not good.

"Mother, sister-in-law, don't worry. Brother Chu and I know very well that you guys do not need to worry about building a house."

When Yang Chonghuan thought of the twenty acres of fertile land, he wanted to give it a try.

"Little brother, sister-in-law, have you ever thought about what that land is for?"

Bai Xiao and Yang Dingchu looked at each other, both of them seeing the fervent look in Yang Chonghuan's eyes.

However, Bai Xiao would not give him all the land.

"I need some to grow some herbs, leave the rest to Big Bro."

"Really? "Awesome."

His family's few acres of land could no longer satisfy his appetite. He had always thought that if his family had a large piece of land, how great would it be?

Now, his dream had been fulfilled.

Seeing Yang Chonghuan's happy expression, Yang Dingchu asked: "Big Brother, have you thought about how to split it?"

"Of course, I would grow some rice near the water source. As for the water source, I would grow some fruits and vegetables."

Bai Xiao thought about it, the ground near the small river was a little short, it would be good to use it to cultivate rice.

On the side of the house where the front was intended to be built, the terrain was rather high and the fruits and vegetables were also good.

She would build a small pond at the back of the house for the convenience of water.
