Chapter 1135

A few days later, Chu Yunyao found an excuse and invited the women in the village to eat sweet potato cakes made by her home and dried sweet potatoes to dry in the sun.

When the food was brought out, it was fragrant and tempting. People in the village looked at the bright yellow cakes and had no idea what it was made of.

"Is this made of pumpkin?" The old woman held the sweet potato cake and asked hesitantly, "Your family doesn't grow pumpkin at all."

Chu Yunyao just smiled, and Mo Jinyu took the initiative to pick up the sweet potato cake in the bamboo frame and ate it, "It tastes very good, with a hint of sweetness, but it's not too sweet. If you eat too much, you won't get tired of it, and you'll be full." abdomen.

You can try it, there is nothing good to entertain you at home.

Thank you for helping me take care of Xiu'er. "

The women had already tasted the taste of Chu Yunyao's cooking, and knew that she was good at cooking. At this moment, they could not bear the smell of sweet potato cakes and dried sweet potatoes, so they picked them up and tasted a few mouthfuls.

Chu Yunyao finally distributed the remaining sweet potato cakes and dried sweet potatoes at home to several children and took them home: "If everyone thinks it is delicious, come to me in three days and I will teach you how to do it."

Three days later, the village women really came to Chu Yunyao and asked how those cakes were made.

Seeing that the children who came with her were alive and kicking, Chu Yunyao told the truth with a smile: "This is made from those sweet potatoes on the mountain, washed first, dried in the sun, then peeled off, steamed in a pot When it is cooked, grind the rice into powder, mix it together and knead it into a cake shape, wait until it cools down and eat it.”

Village woman: "..."

If they eat something that kills them, are they going to die soon?

Chu Yunyao looked at the fluctuating blue and white faces of the people, and pursed her lips with a smile: "Our family has been eating for half a month, and there is nothing wrong with it, and I made it for everyone because of nothing.

It's been three days, and everything I ate has been digested. Isn't everyone doing well?

This thing is not poisonous, and outside the mountains, many people grow it in their own fields.

There used to be poisonous snakes in that area, probably because the venom was stained on the sweet potatoes, and they accidentally ingested them into their mouths, and they died.

As long as it is cleaned and hygienic, it will be fine to eat.

If you are worried, try not to eat it raw. It is also delicious when it is roasted in the fire. "

Everyone: "..."

Everyone was in a state of panic for several days. Seeing that the whole family was fine, they finally couldn't bear it anymore. One by one, they went to the mountain with shovels and baskets, dug up all the sweet potatoes in the sweet potato field, and buried them in their cellars. .

Chu Yunyao took the opportunity to teach them how to plant these sweet potatoes in the land in front of her door in the spring of the coming year.

I even weaved nets and built yards with the villagers, and caught some pheasants and raised them in the yard surrounded by nets. Let the pheasants stay with the domestic chickens and wait for them to lay eggs.

Chu Yunyao once caught two pregnant rabbits and gave them to the old woman next door to raise them. Not long after, a litter of rabbits was born...

It was late autumn in a blink of an eye, and the temperature suddenly turned cold. Chu Yunyao didn't know how to do needlework, so she invited the best embroiderer in the village to come over, took out the black bear skin, and made a cloak for Xiu'er and Mo Jinyu. Wearing a long jacket...

With a little fabric left, I made a pair of fluffy cotton shoes for Mo Jinyu.

Mo Jinyu coughed and shied away: "I'm an adult, it doesn't matter if it's cold, you can leave it to Xiu'er to make winter clothes."

Without even raising her eyelids, Chu Yunyao took out weasel fur and rabbit fur, "These fur are softer and can be used for Xiu'er's winter clothes, but the black bear's fur is better for you."

Mo Jinyu asked, "What about you?"

"I'm in good health, so I can wear two more layers of cloth clothes. Besides, there's a stove at home, so I can still enjoy the fire, so I won't freeze."
