C4 (2/2)
When Su Zhi returned with the grain from the village entrance, her mood improved a lot.
In any case, food and clothing are paramount under any circumstances.
It was just that the relief food sent by the imperial court was only coarse grain and rice. It would not be harmful to children who grew up if it was not tainted with the stench of meat.
The woman was worried.
Suddenly, there was a tremor in her head. It was the hairpin she used to fix her hair.
She pulled it out and looked at it. The hairpin was slightly warm, so she could not tell if it was the warmth of her body or something else.
The light outside the door was getting dimmer and dimmer, and the branches were squeaking.
Looking outside, Su Zhi was lost in thought, and suddenly came up with an idea.
”Jin, can you climb trees?”
”Yes, I will.”
”Then can you go catch him with mom?”
A Jin did not understand Su Zhi's intention for him to find out, so she did not ask any further and obediently followed him out the door.
When Su Zhi was traveling around the region before, many of the regions had a preference for food.
Although the worm looked scary, it was actually the cleanest of the insects. It only drank dew for a living and had no parasites. After being fried, it would be extremely delicious without seasoning.
A Jin learned a lot of skills from the hunter and was very skilled at climbing trees. Soon, she caught a dozen of them.
With that, Su Zhi went back to her room and started working on the earth stove. But she had forgotten that the most important step was to have oil.
How could there be such a thing in the house? Could it be that it had to be boiled with water? That act would probably scare the child, let alone the fact that she couldn't eat it.
Just as he was worrying, the hairpin on his head started to heat up again.
Su Zhi impatiently pulled it off and casually threw it on the earth stove.
With a slight muffled sound, a dish of frozen lard appeared on the surface of the dish.
She was so shocked that her mouth was agape. Could it be that she was wearing shabby clothes and was willing to give her golden fingers to use?
Picking up the hairpin and taking a look, a small line of words appeared on the hairpin: Host, you have done a great job protecting little bun. You have successfully passed the first stage.
The line of words disappeared in an instant.
Su Zhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The reward was just a small piece of lard? What kind of crappy system was this? It was way too stingy.
After fiddling around for a long time, the hairpin looked no different from an ordinary wooden hairpin. Therefore, she could only put it aside and get to the bottom of the matter.
Her hands and feet were nimble as she boiled water to prepare rice. When the oil was about to be boiled, it started to explode.
After a simple meal was done, the two little fellows had already begun salivating.
By the time it was dark, the hut was already pitch black.
After a day of rain, the night sky was still shrouded in layers of dark clouds.
Su Zhi took some water and boiled them. After washing up, the two children went back to bed.
