Chapter 53: Up The Mountain Again (3) (1/2)

It was so fragrant. Although it was a little astringent, it had the delicate fragrance unique to wild fruits!

The astringency was not a problem. Gu Qingyao continued to enjoy its fragrance!

She had no fruits to eat when she was young. Sometimes, her eldest and second uncle, and even her older brothers tried to get hold of some apples and pears, but these were extremely rare. Also, those they managed to obtain were usually of poor quality.

Since fruits were unavailable for purchase, everyone looked forward to finding the occasional wild fruit on the mountainside.

As she ate the wild pear, memories arose with every bite.

“I’ve finished cooking. Come over and eat.”

Mo Beihan was delighted to see the young girl eating so happily. When he heard what she said, he lowered his head and looked at the food she had prepared. His expression froze.

Egg fried rice, meat strips fried with peppers, and a portion of fish soup.

To be honest, in these times, these dishes were considered especially good.

In particular, she had added a lot of oil to the egg fried rice, and there were vegetables, green onions and eggs. It was the same for the stir-fried meat strips. She had even added bean paste.

It was true that he liked these dishes, but this made him truly realize that this Yao Yao was unlike her former self!

The Yao Yao of the past would have just added the peppers to the meat strips and made sure they were cooked. The egg fried rice would only have egg, and that would be pretty good. In these times, people were just too poor and resources were too scarce. They only cared that their bellies were full, and were not too particular.

Mo Beihan looked at the smiling girl and kept quiet. He obediently went to wash his hands and eat.

The dishes went well with the rice. These flavors were similar to Yao Yao’s cooking in her previous life, when they had traveled throughout the country.

Mo Beihan lifted his head. His deep black eyes looked at Gu Qingyao. “Yao Yao!”
