After hearing what Chu Yiling said, Chu Anshan and Meng Qiuping didn't say anything else. Instead, they each picked up a piece of cold beef for Chu Yiling and praised her for her good work with actions.

Chu Yiling, who was praised, ate the cold beef happily. She didn't put down her chopsticks until she finished two large pieces of cold beef and a bowl of porridge with satisfaction.

At around 7pm, Meng Qiuping was about to go back to her room after enjoying the cool breeze when she suddenly thought of what Yang Meihua had told her. She said to Chu Anshan and Chu Yiling, "Aunt Meihua said that in two days the village will organize everyone to go into the mountains to pick up mountain products. Should we go?"

"Of course, I heard that there are a lot of mountain products in the mountains at this time. How can we miss this opportunity?"

"Then I'll tell Aunt Meihua tomorrow, and then we'll go up the mountain with them."

After hearing what Meng Qiuping said, Chu Yiling nodded and went back to her room to sleep.

The next morning, after Chu Anshan and Meng Qiuping went to work, Chu Yiling sat under the eaves waiting for Xiong Da to come.

“Knock, knock, knock…knock, knock, knock…I’m Big Bear.”

"Grandpa Xiong, wait a moment. I'll open the door for you right away."

"There's no rush, just take your time."

When Chu Yiling heard what Xiong Da said, she not only did not slow down, but quickened her pace and went to the gate to open it.

When she opened the gate, she said to Xiong Da, "Grandpa Xiong, please come in. I can't carry such a big jar of chili oil to the door."

"Sorry to bother you." After saying that, Xiong Da followed Chu Yiling into the main room.

When he entered the main room, he saw the jar he had used to store oil yesterday on the table. He knew without asking that the jar was now full of chili oil.

However, he did not just pick up the jar and leave. Instead, he asked Chu Yiling, "Can I open it and take a look?"

"Of course, you can look at it and eat it if you want."

When Xiong Da heard Chu Yiling's words, he opened the jar. Instantly, a spicy smell rushed out, which stimulated him so much that he sneezed several times.

"How is it? Is this chili oil fragrant?"

"It is indeed very fragrant. Your mother's cooking skills are very good. If possible, I would like to order another jar of chili oil from your mother."

"Isn't this jar of chili oil enough for you?"

"It's enough, but I want to stock up on some more. Anyway, the chili oil won't go bad if it's stored away."

"Okay, but you still need to provide the oil and chili peppers, and the reward is still one-fifth of the chili oil."

"No problem, I'll deliver the stuff to you in the evening."

"it is good."

"Then I'll leave first, remember to lock the door."

Chu Anshan and Meng Qiuping returned home at around eleven o'clock in the morning. They saw Chu Yiling sitting in front of the dining table picking beans, and she had picked quite a lot.

So they asked Chu Yiling in confusion: "Lingling, why are you picking so many beans?"

"Of course it's for drying the vegetables. Haven't you noticed that everyone in the village is drying vegetables recently? Naturally, our family will follow them and dry some as well."

"You are really thoughtful. Do we have a lot of beans at home?"

"Not much, only about 20 kilograms. I plan to dry 5 kilograms as a token of my appreciation, and save the rest for fresh food."

"Okay, I'll make lunch first, and then blanch the beans and dry them in the sun."

When Chu Yiling heard Meng Qiuping's words and said "OK", she quickened her pace to pick the beans in her hands, and finally picked all the beans before lunch.
