Chapter 8 I Can Cook
The corners of her mouth immediately curled up. In her previous life, after the killing, she wanted to eat quietly and then read a book.

So he reached out and pulled out a book from the bookshelf, which turned out to be about agriculture.

She picked out a few more at random, and they were all books related to vegetation. At this time, she suspected that this space was left by Shennong.

Did God blame her for killing too much, and specially punished her to farm the land, so as to cultivate her self-cultivation?
It happened that I couldn't sleep now, so I chose a few basic books on the bookshelf, took them outside, and sat on the recliner to read them.

When I saw it, I was fascinated.

It turns out that when a seed is planted in the soil, it needs to be maintained in this way. How carefully you treat it is directly related to whether its fruit is good or bad, ugly or beautiful, and more or less.

My God, there are still so many ways to go.

The more she looked at it, the more she sank into it. Unknowingly, several hours passed, and her body was nourished by the space, and her skin gradually became shiny, her yellow hair also became shiny, and even the scars on her body were healed. It seems to be slowly improving.

With her photographic memory, she read more than a dozen books in one sitting, and then she put down the books without getting enough.

Only then did she remember that it was night and she and Luo Shi were sleeping on the same kang.

My God, my God, will it be daylight outside?

What if my mother is frightened when she goes out?She took a deep breath, no matter what, let's go out first.

Huh?It was still night after she came out, and the room was still dark, so she felt relieved. It seems that there is a time difference between the space and the outside, and she will study it later.

She lay down carefully, covered the quilt, and slowly closed her eyes to sleep.

This sleep was really comfortable. When she woke up, her mother had already cooked the meal.

Xi'er scratched her hair in embarrassment, she wanted to get off the kang but saw a pair of new shoes beside the kang, she grinned, put on the shoes and ran out.

"Mom, my daughter got up late"

"It's okay, your body is weak, you should sleep more"

In the morning, Mrs. Luo cooked a big bowl of white rice porridge for her and a bowl of sweet potato porridge for herself.

Seeing this, Xi'er went to the kitchen to get two small bowls, took out one bowl of her own white rice porridge, and another bowl of mother's sweet potato porridge, and exchanged them.

"Mom, I prefer sweet potato porridge to white rice porridge. Look how good it is. You can have white porridge and sweet potato porridge at the same time."

Mrs. Luo knew that her daughter didn't want to eat alone, her nose was moved and she wanted to cry.

Xi'er was afraid that she would cry, so she hurriedly handed over the spoon, "Mom, let's eat quickly, after eating, let's do some work together"

She took the spoon and asked, "How is the wound on your forehead?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore. When I combed my hair yesterday, the wound has scabbed over. I can pick off the cloth in a while."

"If you wear it for another day, it won't be good if the wind blows"

"Ai"

After the mother and daughter had breakfast, Mrs. Luo cut the cloth she bought yesterday and started making new clothes for her daughter.

Xi'er looked at the two vegetable fields on the left and right sides of the courtyard and asked, "Mother, isn't this vegetable garden not growing vegetables?"

"Planting, the sky hasn't really warmed up yet, so it won't be too late to plant a few days later"

"Then let me turn over the ground, otherwise it will be too uncomfortable to be idle."

"Okay, then take it easy, rest when you're tired, the tools are in the woodshed"

Xi'er rolled up her sleeves, went to the woodshed and took out a shovel, she couldn't use the hoe, the guy was too big for her small body to shake.

He could only gouge out the ground with one shovel after another, and after a while, he broke out in a cold sweat.

When she came to the kitchen and wanted to boil a pot of water for drinking, she saw that the tank was almost out of water, and then looked at the two heavy wooden barrels on the ground. She gritted her teeth and used her thoughts to store the two tanks of water directly from the spiritual river in the space. half full.

My body has not recovered yet, and I am determined not to carry water. Such a heavy bucket, with two buckets of water on my shoulders, what does it look like?
Mother is also old, let alone let her choose, and can only use the spiritual water of space, old lady Luo doesn't need to ask, she can get over it if asked.

Although the current Linghe water contains spiritual energy, the concentration is not high, and if it volatilizes in the tank, no one will notice anything abnormal at all.

Besides, both her and Luo's bodies need to be nourished. Whether the water in the Linghe River is used for cooking, or for washing and bathing, it can make their bodies gradually healthy.

She picked up a ladle and filled the pot with more than half of the water, then stuffed the stove with firewood, and then came out of the kitchen to continue digging the ground.

One piece on one side, and the two sides add up to three points of land.

It took an hour to dig out everything, and finally smashed the large pieces of Tukara with a shovel, leveled the ground, and stepped on it softly.

"Mom, I've finished the land. What are we planting in our house? Why don't we plant it in the afternoon?"

"It's okay to plant it, anyway, the ground doesn't freeze, it's just a matter of early germination and late germination"

"Then how is the land planted?"

"Divide one side into three pieces, plant a seed every foot, and grow six kinds of vegetables. Now don't mess with it, wash your hands, drink some water, this dress will be finished soon, mother will cook."

"Mom, I can cook, you tell me what to do, I will do it"

"can you?"

"Mother just say what to do"

"Do you know pancakes?"

"meeting"

"There are sun-dried radishes in the jar in the kitchen. You soak some. You bought meat yesterday. You refine the fat ones into oil, and fry the thin ones with dried radishes."

"Ai"

Xi'er wiped the sweat off her head, washed her hands and face with water, then went into the kitchen, took the boiling water from the pot into a clean basin, took a bowl, took out a bowl of water and drank it .

As expected of Linghe water, a bowl of water went down, and she broke out in a cold sweat. She knew that a lot of impurities had been expelled from the cold sweat.

It's a pity that I can't take a bath in this weather. I don't even have a bathtub at home, and my body smells of sweat.

Mother is a clean person, but because she doesn't take a bath often, she also smells bad.

When you make money, set up these first.

Thinking of this, she took the bowl to the main room and took out a bowl of white noodles and half a bowl of cornmeal.

Mix the two together, divide it into two halves, scald one half with boiling water, and stir the other half with cold water. After the two doughs are well kneaded, put them together and knead them again. After kneading, put them there to wake up.

Then soak the dried radish in warm water, then wash the meat, put it on the chopping board, pick up the knife, separate the fat meat from the lean meat, and cut them into slices.

Heat up the pot, throw the fat into the pot, and there is a sizzling sound.

Mrs. Luo came to the kitchen after sewing the dress. Seeing Xi'er cooking decently, she smiled.

"Mother set the fire for you?"

"No, that basin is hot water. Mother has been working all morning. Let's drink a bowl of hot water. I can do it myself. Mother is waiting to eat the ready-made one."

"Hey, mother is waiting?"

Xi'er smiled at her, turned over the fat with a shovel, oily flakes gradually emerged from the bottom of the pot.

Mrs. Luo took a bowl of water from the basin and watched her cook while drinking.

"Hey, why is this water so sweet, did you put sugar?"

"Is there any sugar in our house?"

"That's right, we don't have any sugar at all"

"Maybe you are too thirsty, besides, well water is supposed to be sweet."

"Too"

Speaking of sugar, Xi'er suddenly thought of a delicacy that costs almost nothing and is not complicated to make. Spring is the time to eat this.

"Mom, do we have wheat seeds?"

"No, our family doesn't farm, and we don't keep wheat seeds"

"Then can you buy some for your daughter?"

"what are you going to do?"

"A kind of candy, very delicious, especially children like to eat this, I want to sell it for money"

"How did you do this?"

"I don't know, I just think I can do it, and I want to try it, okay?"

She looked at her mother expectantly, and Mrs. Luo was softened by her look. Thinking that the child was also for this family, she readily agreed.

"Mother will go to the village chief's house to buy five catties in a while and come back. You can try something first."

"Thank you mother, this is very simple, don't worry about my daughter doing other work"
