Chapter 239 (1/2)

The mountain is clean and quiet, and the population of Wang Youjing's family is simple. The party lived in the side house of Wang's family.

Xia Xiaochan and two servant girls naturally live in the big house of the side room. In the firewood room and outside, the bodyguard also built a floor to sleep.

The Wang family is self-sufficient. They have bacon, fish, shrimp, vegetables, cucumbers and so on. Xia Xiaochan gave five Liang silver to the Wang family's father and daughter as living expenses. The party avoided the danger and breathed a sigh of relief.

Through observation, Xia Xiaochan found that although Wang was cold, he had a good heart. He also specially held dried cereals and grass, and specially made eggs for Xia Xiaochan.

Of course, the two servant girls are human spirits. When they are treated by people, they naturally test the poison quietly. Xia Xiaochan also takes it and eats it at ease.

In the following days, Xia Xiaochan had nothing to do but follow Wang Youjing to collect wild flowers and fruits in the mountains.

During the day, Wang Youjing said excitedly, ”sister Xia, there is such a big chestnut over there. I can pick it up every morning, but it's delicious. Go, go, let's pick it up quickly.”

”OK.”

Xia Xiaochan and her servant girl followed Wang Youjing to the chestnut tree she said. The chestnut tree with a diameter of one meter was hung on her head, and the ground was full of chestnut balls and brown chestnut particles.

Seeing the chestnuts all over the ground, the party was very excited. They took the basket and quickly picked it up.

The grass on the ground was soon trodden down by a group of people.

Wang Youjing picked it up very carefully. Where others had picked it up, she could always find chestnuts, which surprised several people nearby.

After picking up chestnuts, Wang Youjing takes Xia Xiaochan and others to pick fruit.

There are many pots here, including pears, plums, sour dates, peaches and so on.

Wang Youjing is like a monkey. When she comes to the fruit tree, she swishes and climbs up the tree. After picking good fruit on the tree, she takes big and red fruit one by one to several people.

After several servant girls got the fruit, they all smiled gently at her.

A naive and enthusiastic person always makes people feel good.

The party talked and laughed and came home with a vegetable basket.

At this time, the people who went to the stream also had a basket full of harvest.

Xia Xiaochan leaned over and saw that a basket was full of crayfish. These crayfish were big and fat. It was pleasant to see. She thought of the smell of spicy xiaolongxi. Xia Xiaochan subconsciously swallowed her saliva.

The other basket is a large grass carp, at least ten kilograms in size. In addition to grass carp, they also caught some eel and loach.

That night, under Xia Xiaochan's instruction, Mrs. Chen cooked a meal with complete color, aroma and taste.

Spicy crayfish, scented fish, pickled peppers, fried loach, cucumber and stir fried vegetables.

Wang Youjing and his son, looking at the table full of food, couldn't help but have a big appetite.

Neither father nor son is a good cook. They haven't eaten such delicious food for many years. They ate bowl after bowl until all the food was swept away.

Wang Youjing said, ”sister Xia, this aunt's cooking is really delicious. If only she could eat such delicious food every day.”

Xia Xiaochan said with a smile, ”what's the difficulty? Don't you just learn to cook? Besides, you can eat in a restaurant when you move out of the valley.”

After hearing this, Wang Youjing's eyes brightened and dimmed a moment later.

”What's the matter?”
