Chapter 3 Activate the Food System

"steal?"

Yang had never done this and was a little shocked to hear this.

"They didn't let us take the food. If we didn't steal it, my daughter and you would have starved to death. Besides, my daughter has suffered so much for that bag of food. Even if we take some of it, we deserve it."

Song Rutang lifted up her sleeves again to show Yang the wound, which made Yang feel distressed for a while.

Yang struggled for a long time before finally making up his mind: "Then let's go get some."

"My daughter can go by herself. She knows where the grain bag was hidden by the aunt. You still have to guard our luggage."

Song Rutang didn't let Yang follow him. He crouched and ran to the hole where Qin kept the grain bags and took out the grain bags.

I wanted to take them all away, but then I remembered that Mrs. Yang would be reluctant to part with them, and also thought that she and Ms. Yang couldn't carry so many things. After thinking about it, I took out the big baggage I brought with me and stuffed food into it. .

After picking and choosing for a while, I finally filled up the baggage.

After thinking for a while, he opened the small bag next to the grain bag. Sure enough, he saw many water bottles and water bladders inside. Song Rutang put them into his arms and put the grain bag back as it was.

He ran back to Mrs. Yang with the baggage and put it on the ground with a sudden movement, which actually shocked Mrs. Yang.

"Why did you take so much? There are so many people like your grandmother. If you don't have enough food left..."

Mrs. Yang was very worried. Looking at the large sweet potatoes, small packages of rice noodles, and baked pancakes exposed in the bundle, she felt panicked.

Song Rutang knew that Mrs. Yang would be worried, so she took out a piece of pancake and gave it to Mrs. Yang. She took out a few pieces of sweet potatoes and said pitifully:

“Mother, we contributed these grains back then, but they didn’t produce anything at all, so they fled the famine empty-handed.

Besides, those people were so bad and hurt my daughter like this. If she didn’t get something to repair her body, if she got scars in the future and others saw it, wouldn’t it be wrong for such a beautiful mother to have such an ugly daughter? Embarrassed you? "

Yang was happy, and the guilt she felt towards the Song family finally disappeared.

After coaxing Yang, Song Rutang pinched a few sweet potatoes and prepared to bake them, but unexpectedly heard a mechanical sound in her mind.

[You have activated the food system]

[Congratulations on getting the recipe "Roasted Sweet Potato" and lighter]

[Task: Get praise from ten people
Completion reward: A mule cart

Failure penalty: take back recipes and ingredients]

Almost instantly, a clear recipe appeared in Song Rutang's mind, and the process was clearly imprinted in her mind, as if she had made this roasted sweet potato thousands of times.

While lamenting that the system was too messy, Song Rutang became angry:

"Are you kidding me? How do you get ten good reviews in this era? Isn't this inviting a wolf into the house? Give it a [-]% discount and get one good review."

I thought the system would not agree, but a few seconds later, the system spoke again:

[Task: Get good reviews from two people
Completion reward: a real-life mule cart]

Song Rutang realized it.Could it be that the system was just going to reward her with a made-up mule cart?With this good thing, he no longer had to carry luggage and food around. Song Rutang was so happy that he immediately ran to find firewood and took a longer stone to dig a hole in the ground.

Yang has never seen anyone roasting sweet potatoes like this. In the past, they just put them in the fire and roasted them. Why dig a hole?Could it be that his daughter's head was damaged and she wanted to bury all the sweet potatoes?

She looked at her daughter worriedly, and couldn't help but feel heart palpitations. What was wrong with her daughter?
"Tang Bao, what are you doing?"

Could it be that what my sister-in-law said was that she wanted to burn all the sweet potatoes and bury them because she didn’t want them to be eaten by others?

Song Rutang found a reason for herself:
"Mom, don't worry. Before we ran away a few days ago, I found a food atlas in my father's old bookcase. There are many ways to cook food in it! It's my first time to try it today, and I don't know. You know if it tastes good or not. If it tastes good, my daughter will make other foods for you according to the method on the map!"

Song Rutang thought about it, and used a food atlas as a cover. If the system issued new recipes in the future, she could continue to use this atlas as the reason why she suddenly knew how to cook. If it didn't taste good, she could blame it. Isn’t this atlas?
Hearing this, Yang's eyes turned red again.

It's all her fault that she's useless, and her daughter still has to take care of her.

Song Rutang deliberately turned his back to Yang, piled the firewood together, and secretly took out a lighter to light the firewood. Fortunately, Yang had never cooked much in his life and had no doubts about why the fire was lit so quickly.

The firewood gradually burned out. Song Rutang put the sweet potatoes into the pit, covered the charcoal left after the firewood burned out, and squatted aside to wait.

After a long time, when Song Rutang's stomach made a long growl, a tangy fragrance came out of the pit.

Baked!
Song Rutang first handed some sweet potatoes to Mr. Yang, then put out the fire himself, took out the sweet potatoes and blew on them, holding them in his hands.

Yang touched the hot sweet potato and felt that it was different from the roasted sweet potatoes she had eaten before. She frowned: Is this really edible?
Smelling the tangy fragrance, she was afraid and curious, so she couldn't help but peel off the skin and take a bite.

After just one sip, his eyes widened.

The roasted sweet potatoes are soft, glutinous and sweet, and the rich aroma lingers on the tip of the nose. When eaten, they are soft and soft in the mouth, sliding along the tongue and into the abdominal cavity, making people unable to resist taking another bite.

Hearing the system's reminder of [Praise +1], Song Rutang also took a bite of the sweet potato.

Eh?This sweet potato tastes better than the ones she has bought in modern stores!
Song Rutang held the sweet potato and ate one bite after another.

Perhaps due to ancient natural cultivation, sweet potatoes have a strong smell. Coupled with the blessing of the system, the roasted sweet potatoes she made taste even better. It was so delicious that she almost bit her tongue with the bite she took just now.

For a while, the two of them were silent and kept eating the sweet potatoes.

*
Zhao, the second daughter-in-law of Song Dynasty, had a quarrel with Qin about her deception. After they finally stopped, Qin took everyone to get the grain bags back.

When they arrived at the place, everyone's expressions changed.

Why so much less?
"They say Tang Bao is a thief. I think you are the thief. Not only did you hide the food, but you also took away most of it. Are you thinking of framing Tang Bao and dragging us into trouble again? Let me tell you, this time I won’t do that embarrassing thing with you!”

Mrs. Zhao was glared at by Song Laoer for a long time because of what happened in the morning. She had not quarreled with Mrs. Qin, so she was not in a good mood. Seeing that the food was much less, she immediately became energetic and raised her voice to quarrel with Mrs. Qin.

Mrs. Qin is also extremely anxious. Doesn’t the whole family have to blame her now?I opened the grain bag, rummaged through it, and searched everywhere, but I couldn't find where the half of the grain had gone.

Now she knows what it means to steal the chicken but lose the rice!

Qin's mind was in a mess. Just when she was thinking of an explanation, she heard Liangbao shouting over there:

"Mother, the mule is missing!"
