Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 71 Baked Potatoes, Back, Back, Back
"Damn! You're taking advantage of someone for nothing and you're saying this... Do you mean our family has to rush to catch up?"

When Mei Qian came back and told Mrs. Mei the news, Han was also listening.

When she heard the Jia family's tone of voice, Han family was shocked and immediately became angry. Mrs. Mei didn't say anything, she exploded first.

"Okay, this is what Mrs. Tao said. In order to clarify herself, it's hard to say whether the words are true or false. Don't mention this outside. You'll offend a few people in other villages who haven't even met her yet. "

Mrs. Mei pressed the Han button. Mei Qian and Cui'er carefully took down the things they bought from the market today. While Mrs. Mei's eyes fell on the objects on the ground, she asked Mei Qian: "What about Tao?" Did he tell you anything else?"

Mei Qian knew this issue best. She also told Mrs. Mei in detail what Tao said. Mrs. Mei kept nodding her head while listening, and then sighed:

"Hey, it's really not easy for us outsiders to blend in. When people in the village learned that we outsiders who settled here at a high price, they often thought that we were all rich and wanted to take advantage.

Previously when our family was building a house, those people were sitting on the ground one by one raising the price to build the house and calling the wages to the sky. Now that they see our family buying bricks to build the house, each one of them is talking nonsense behind his back! "

Thinking of the explanations given by Tao and Mei Qian today, she felt that Tao was indeed a little clever. She thought that her family had suffered from the idleness of some people in the village because of building a house, so she gave a good reason.

As for whether Mrs. Tao was really persuaded by Mr. Jia to follow him, or whether he also had the intention of taking advantage in his heart, after all, this person seems to be a good talker at the moment.

Besides, there are quite a lot of people in this village, and we won’t be able to figure out the complicated relationships in it for a while.

With this in mind, Mrs. Mei ordered: "Cui'er, tomorrow you take your mother to visit the house of the one you call Aunt Tao."

When Mei Qian heard that Mrs. Mei finally arranged for Han to go, she thought she had made a mistake. However, when she saw Mr. Han patting her chest after hearing this, she assured her that she could do it. Mrs. Mei nodded in relief, and then Mei Qian He suppressed his doubts.

It can be seen that she really cares about her aunt.

"Nai, the stone roller is installed."

Mei Shitou also walked in from the yard at this time. Mrs. Mei smiled when she heard it and her eyebrows curled up: "Okay, let Xiao Hui use the stone mill to grind some yellow rice noodles tomorrow morning, and then we can make sticky buns to eat! By the way. , I cooked the red beans I bought earlier tonight and mixed them with brown sugar and wrapped them in sticky buns tomorrow!"

After finally settling down, Mrs. Mei decided to have a good meal.

This good meal is not the so-called big fish and meat. Mrs. Mei decided to prepare some commemorative food that can only be eaten during the holidays.

Mei Qian was also very interested after hearing about the bag of yellow rice that her mother planned to touch.

In the present world, Mei Qian's area was not a place where yellow rice was eaten. She had never seen yellow rice. After she came here, the system reminded Mei Qian that there was yellow rice at home. Mei Qian could not touch it alone because she was afraid of doing it. Come out with some dark dishes that she can't control.

"what is this?"

While helping Mrs. Mei get rid of the items she bought today, Han suddenly discovered that the mooncakes Mei Qian bought were wrapped in oil paper. Han also knew that they were food, so she opened them carefully and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Ah! moon cake!"

"Well, I was at the market today and heard people selling them, and then I remembered that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Mei Qian quickly explained the reason why she bought mooncakes.

"The Mid-Autumn Festival is tomorrow?"

At this time, Mrs. Mei's expression was also in a daze because she heard it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, but she actually said something about Mei Qian buying mooncakes.

"Then I have to eat something good tomorrow~"

After feeding Yu Sheng from the east side room, Mrs. Jiang who entered the main room happened to hear this and followed Mrs. Mei's words about having a good meal tomorrow to distract Mei Qian from buying moon cakes.

"Well, I just moved in today, and I still need to tidy up the house inside and outside. I'll just eat something simple, and I'll make some good food tomorrow."

When Mrs. Mei said this, her eyes naturally fell on Mei Qian. When Mei Qian met Mrs. Mei's gaze, the meaning was self-evident.

"Okay, let's make a good meal tomorrow."

Oh, Mei Qian forgot to mention that sister-in-law Cui'er also doesn't know how to cook.

Cui'er's cooking tastes just like her cooking Chinese medicine.

Don't ask how this was done, Mei Qian also wanted to know. A few days ago, when everyone was busy, they asked Cui'er to cook a meal. It was also the first time for a group of people from Lao Mei's family to taste it. Everyone ate like this under Cui'er's uneasy eyes.

Anyway, they thought that their cooking skills were just like that, so how could Cui Er's cooking be so bad?
But it turns out:

Cui Er’s dark cuisine is the kind that goes into your mouth – it tastes bad;
Swallowed into the stomach - it still tastes bad.

And it tastes so bad that you can’t even vomit it out. All kinds of unknown things are spinning and jumping in your stomach to torture you!

That night, Mei Qian had to use the flower dew exchanged by the elves to detoxify everyone.

From then on, Cui'er could only undertake the preparation or finishing work of cooking, such as cooking fires and washing dishes.

What a damn fate!
Mei Qian never expected that now that their old Mei family had a new member, she would still be the only one who could cook_(：3　∠)_
···
The homestead of Lao Mei's family is not very big. Mrs. Mei built three houses on the front, a kitchen and a donkey shed and chicken coop on the west side, and two more houses on the east side.

In the middle of the main house is the main room, with a room on each side. Mrs. Mei and Mei Qian temporarily live in one room, and Han and Cui'er temporarily live in the other room.

There are two rooms on the east side, one for Mei Erhu and his wife and Yusheng, and one for Mei Shitou.

Mrs. Mei planned to find a fortune teller to look through the almanac to determine a good day for Mei Shitou and Cui'er to officially consummate their marriage, and then the couple would live in the same room.

When the time comes, Mrs. Mei plans to let Mei Erhu build another wall on this side of the main room, and Mei Qian and Han will live in a small room.

Mei Qian said she had no objection to this. It would be great to have her own small single room.

After all, both her mother and her eldest uncle often scream when they sleep, which is actually very unfriendly to people like Mei Qian who are light sleepers.

Mrs. Mei specially set aside some behind the main house of the Mei family and reclaimed part of it to grow vegetables in a small plot.

Previously, Mrs. Mei had built as many fences as the land allocated to her family in the village, and even the fences were inedible.

Mei Qian and the others came back from the market in the town. They had been busy for a while, and it seemed to be evening when they were talking just now. Mei Qian also packed up and planned to cook.

When Mei Qian was in the kitchen preparing to cook some millet porridge for tonight, the system Xiaomei notified Mei Qian that the mooncakes she put in at noon had been redeemed, but only received a three-star rating.

[Host, then Wilson commented that your mooncakes are too small and not sweet yet. 】

"what?"

Mei Qian couldn't hold it back, and was a little speechless about Wilson's evaluation, "If he was young, he would use less in exchange for it. What's the point of eating too little?" Oh, by the way, are these mooncakes really not sweet? 】

Mei Qian asked Xiaomei uncertainly. She hadn't tasted the mooncake yet.

[Not very sweet, much lighter than the lotus flower last time. 】

Mentioning the lotus cake, Mei Qian realized it.

To be honest, the last time Hehua Sumei Qian was so reserved, besides giving her breasts to support the scene, on the other hand, those things were really sweet!
Sweet Mei Qian drank a lot of tea.

This Wilson from the Great Navigation Plane turned out to be a sweet lover, Mei Qian twitched her lips.

After that, Mei Qian no longer cared about his three-star rating, and just asked the system what the other party used in exchange.

[It’s still ten pounds of salt-and-pepper roasted potatoes. 】

Mei Qian's mouth twitched after hearing this, and she decided not to upload any desserts or snacks for a short time.

Her space wasn't very big to begin with, but it was almost filled with salt and pepper baked potatoes!
　Mei Qian: The days of cooking alone are somewhat boring.

　　Mrs. Mei: Actually, family members can take turns doing it.

　　Xiaomei: No, no, no, host, you should do it alone.
