Jiang Qingyi carefully moved to the side of Old Lady Jiang, then reached out and tugged at her sleeve, "Grandma..."
Old Mrs. Jiang turned to look at Jiang Qingyi, "What's wrong, Xiaowu?"
Jiang Qingyi leaned close to the old lady's ear and whispered, "Grandma, Grandpa Whitebeard gave me a big steamed bun."
"What did you say!?" Old Mrs. Jiang exclaimed.
The next second she realized that everyone else was looking at her, and Old Man Jiang even asked, "Old woman, what are you yelling about?"
Mrs. Jiang reacted instantly, "No, it's okay, I saw it wrong!"
Afterwards, Old Lady Jiang pulled Jiang Qingyi aside and asked, "Xiaowu, where is the big steamed bun that the old immortal gave you?"
"Grandma, find me a clean cloth bag and I'll give it to you later."
Mrs. Jiang didn't ask any more questions and answered directly, "Okay, wait, I'll go find it right away."
After she finished speaking, she went towards the cart, and Jiang Qingyi did not follow her.
After a while, Old Mrs. Jiang came over with a cloth bag.
Jiang Qingyi looked at the color of the cloth bag with an indescribable expression, but she had no other choice.
She took the cloth bag and reached in, released twenty-five large steamed buns from the space, and then returned the cloth bag to Old Lady Jiang.
Old Mrs. Jiang watched the cloth bag suddenly swell up with her own eyes. She felt shocked and frightened, but also a little happy.
Seeing that the family had little food left, an old immortal unexpectedly came to help them, giving them both meat and food. Old Mrs. Jiang didn't know how to thank him.
Jiang Qingyi saw that the old lady Jiang's mouth was twitching and she was about to kneel down again. She quickly grabbed the old lady's hand.
"Grandma, please don't worry. Grandpa Whitebeard has accepted me as his apprentice. I will thank him very much. The fact that he accepted me as his apprentice cannot be exposed. Grandma, you must keep this secret!"
Old Mrs. Jiang nodded repeatedly, then put her hands together, "Grandma knows, and I won't tell anyone! Amitabha, it's really because of the blessing of our ancestors that our Jiang family can survive..."
Jiang Qingyi didn't urge her and went back alone.
You can eat soon after you get back.
Old Mrs. Jiang took out a cloth bag filled with steamed buns and began to distribute the buns very calmly.
Each steamed bun was very big. Even if Old Mrs. Jiang was willing to give one to everyone, she would break the buns into pieces with her hands and give a little to each person.
Jiang Qingyi only got a quarter of a steamed bun. Even though it was only a quarter, it was as big as her two fists, which was more than enough for this small body that had been hungry for a long time.
The others didn't dare move their steamed buns, for fear that what they saw was not real.
Just as Old Man Jiang was about to ask something, Old Lady Jiang interrupted him, "Don't ask anything, just eat your food."
Then she started to use bowls to distribute the stewed pig's trotters. Every time she scooped a spoonful, her face showed a painful expression.
If it weren't for the hot weather and the lack of extra salt at home, I guess Old Mrs. Jiang would have kept the pig's trotter for a long time.
Jiang Qingyi was given half a bowl of pig's trotter soup, which contained a large piece of meat, more than what was in other people's bowls.
The others had no objection to Old Lady Jiang's distribution of food, and they all started eating.
Jiang Qingyi took a bite of the not-so-soft stewed pig's trotter, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face. She felt that the pig's trotter was delicious even with just a little salt. She couldn't even imagine how it would taste if more spices were added and braised.
The Jiang family has a very good family tradition. The old lady doesn't bully her daughter-in-law. She is a bit patriarchal, but she doesn't treat her granddaughter as a human being. She handles things fairly.
If it weren't for these reasons, Jiang Qingyi would not have shared the pig's trotters and steamed buns she got.
Jiang Xiaotian took a fist-sized steamed bun and took small bites of it. "Grandma, the big steamed bun is so delicious!"
Jiang Fu laughed at her, "Sister, meat is the most delicious."
Jiang Ping is very ambitious. "When I make money in the future, I will definitely let you all live a good life of eating meat every day!"
Jiang Dahai and Zhao looked at each other and said nothing tacitly.
Except for Old Mrs. Jiang, no one in the family knew that they could eat meat and white flour buns thanks to Jiang Qingyi.
The stewed pig's trotter soup was drunk by the whole family, and the meat on the bones was eaten clean by the children.
After dinner, Jiang Qingyi and Jiang Xiaoya helped Wang and Chen clean up the dishes, but there was no water nearby so they did not wash them for the time being.
The sun was very hot at noon, and the water they had stored was not much, so Old Man Jiang could only let everyone rest for a while and set off later.
Jiang Qingyi's current physical condition can only ensure that she is still alive, but it would not be quite right to say that she is very healthy.
Long-term hunger leads to malnutrition, not to mention that in this era of underdeveloped medical care, a minor cold can kill a person.
The original owner probably died because he suffered from heatstroke while on the road and did not receive effective treatment.
At this time, Jiang Qingyi was resting beside her mother Zhao, who was also taking a nap while holding the one-year-old Xiaojie.
The system's voice sounded at this time, [New task, host, please find a handful of soil. If you complete the task, you will be rewarded with three acres of wheat seeds. If you fail the task, there will be no penalty. Do you accept it? ]
Jiang Qingyi answered directly, [Accept! ]
[The task has been accepted, please complete the task as soon as possible. 】
Not only is the first task simple, but the subsequent tasks are even simpler than the previous ones. Jiang Qingyi feels that this system is truly a friendly force!
A handful of soil is really easy to find, it's everywhere under your feet.
Jiang Qingyi picked up some soil from beside her without thinking.
[Task completed, do you want to submit? ]
【Yes! 】
[Host, the reward has been placed in your space.] The system's voice sounded lively.
Jiang Qingyi then remembered that she didn't know the specific situation of the space yet. It was impossible for her to disappear out of thin air under the eyes of the Jiang family. That would be too terrifying.
So she asked the system in her mind, "Tongzi, what is the current situation of the space? Why is the reward this time seeds? Can I grow things in my space?"
[This space is a growing space. There are only a few huts in it (the time ratio is the same as the outside world), a warehouse (time is still), three acres of land (time ratio is five to one), a spiritual spring (one hundred milliliters of water per day), another river, and finally a piece of open space. The total area of the space is about ten acres. ]
The system briefly introduced the specific situation of the space, and he added, "Host, you can try to use your spirit body, that is, your thoughts, to enter the space and take care of the things inside."
Jiang Qingyi had no idea what this thing called thoughts was, and she really didn't know how to use it. [What should I do?]
[Sorry host, I don't know that either.] The system voice sounded a little disappointed.
Jiang Qingyi sighed, [It's okay, you've helped me a lot, I'll just try it myself. ]
She closed her eyes, thinking of the dot on the palm of her hand, and silently said, "Mind enter, mind enter..."
