On the second day, Lady Wang made everyone noodles early in the morning. Originally, she had planned to let Yuan Tong eat it alone. However, Tian Yuqiao had said that she could not be merciful. Everyone had to eat it together if they wanted to. Since Wang Shi couldn't refuse, she could only agree.
Fortunately, the family was now quite well off. Ever since Qiao'er had been able to collect herbs and sell them for money, the family no longer starved. Occasionally, they would even be able to eat a few grains. Thus, Lady Wang did not continue to insist. She rolled out a large amount of noodles, intending to improve the food for everyone.
The few kilograms of soybeans that Widow Li had brought him earlier had also been soaked in some of the water from the lotus pond in the Emptiness Realm. Now, a large bowl of soybeans sprouted out.
Tian Yuqiao felt a sense of accomplishment as she looked at the snow-white bean sprouts. Each of them was an inch long.
”Ai, it's a pity that there aren't any eggs. If there were, Mother could use the eggs to fry a bowl of soy sauce for all of you to eat. That taste is especially good. ”You ate it once when your father was still here …”
Mrs Wang recalled the beauty of Tian Dahe's home, but her eyes were slightly red.
After breakfast, he left Yutang to accompany Yuan Tong at home. Tian Yuqiao and Yuan Ji went together to another small hill to gather mushrooms.
This time they had brought a machete with them to prevent an accident.
Within less than two hours, Lady Wang had completed the inner garment of the Yutang. Next, she began to make clothes for Yuan Ji and herself.
Yuan Ji and Tian Yujie didn't come back to eat lunch. Due to the fact that they had a rather full meal in the morning, they each brought out two snacks. That way, they could gather more mushrooms outside.
Lady Wang kept the rest of the pastries, leaving half a box for Yuan Tong to eat. This made her especially touched.
He was also not a person who ate alone. Every time Lady Wang gave him something, he would give half of it to Yutang. As for the rest, he would still think about his senior brother and sister Qiao'er.
Tian Yuqiao had a great harvest today. With the help of Yuan Ji, he had actually caught a wild chicken and even brought four wild eggs.
”That's great, now I can use wild eggs to nourish little brother Yuan Tong's body.” Tian Yuqiao smiled as he looked at the few wild eggs that were slightly smaller than an egg in his hand.
”That's right, junior likes to eat this the most.” Yuan Ji laughed.
”I'm just curious, how do you know how to catch wild chickens?” Tian Yuqiao's face was filled with questions.
Yuan Qing's body trembled as he thought to himself, ”I can't be sure, but my little secret has been discovered.”
”This... ”I know martial arts, so I'm pretty powerful.” Beads of sweat appeared on Yuan Ji's forehead. Because he was lying, his face was also slightly flushed.
”Come on, be honest. Do you usually carry your master on your back and stealthily come out to hunt?” Tian Yuqiao's words hit the mark.
”Shh, you can't say random things. At that time, didn't I get really hungry? Master has gone out for a change. I can't just watch as Junior Brother starves to death, right? ”
”Oh, so it's like that. No wonder my mom cooked food for you two with meat oil last time. Neither of you had too big of a reaction. So both of you are fake monks huh.” Tian Yuqiao said with a funny face.
Yuan Ji thought for a while, then lowered his head and said, ”Ah, you saw it too. Junior brother and I don't have any scars on our heads. When Master picked us up, he actually didn't plan for us to go. He said that Junior Brother and I were fated to be geniuses and would have to support the Lord in the future … ”
