When I went to the county yesterday, there were all kinds of stalls on that street, but there was one thing that she didn't see two at a time from the beginning to the end of the street, and that was a vegetable stall.

The ground is frozen in winter and vegetables cannot be grown. It can be imagined that except for those who store winter vegetables, fresh vegetables are hard to see.

"Do you need to water it again?" Li Changle asked the system.

These vegetables seem to be able to grow wildly on their own, and the growth is pleasing.

“You can water it or not.”

Li Changle's eyes narrowed when she smiled. She is such a sensible and carefree girl.

She thought of another question, "Are there any fruits or something I can grow? Can I harvest them in two days?"

"Host, as long as it is a plant that can produce seeds, you can find it in the seed category by browsing down, including vegetables, fruits, and medicinal herbs.

Fruits are mostly grown from seedlings, and they take three times longer to bear fruit than vegetables.”

Li Changle smiled foolishly and nodded.

When she returned to the kitchen, she had a few more garlic cloves in her hand, and the braised meat had begun to absorb the juice.

Li Changle picked up a spatula and scooped the soft meat into small pieces. He washed and chopped the garlic sprouts, put them into the meat, stir-fried them for a few times, covered them and simmered them for a while.

After cleaning the pot, only flames were left in the stove. She put some thin firewood in it, waited for the pot to slowly heat up, and quickly made the dough into a palm-sized pancake and stuck it on the surface of the pot.

Her skills are naturally not as mature as her mother's, but she still has 70% to 80% of the skills.

She made three more palm-sized doughs, cut a slit in them, used chopsticks to scrape out a pocket, and stuffed some of the prepared meat filling into them.

This way, the cut won't be too big and the meat won't fall out.

Since the Wang family was too embarrassed to stay here for lunch, she let them take the food back. She didn't intend to let them work for her in vain.

It was after noon when the brothers finally finished packing up the wild animals.

Wang Dahu thought that it would be difficult for her, a woman, to go to the county to process the meat. He had experienced her speed.

"Madam Li, you have to go to the county and sell the meat to a butcher's stall or a restaurant. Fresh meat can fetch more money. As for the leather, we will take it to Brother Liangmu later and let him help tan it. But you have to pay some money."

Li Changle listened carefully, Wang Dahu had already helped her figure out where to put these things.

As the saying goes, one thing should not trouble two masters. She smiled and said to Wang Dahu: "Then I'll have to trouble you again. And I wonder if you can help me deal with the meat. I'll pay you."

Wang Dahu shook his head. "What did you say about the reward, Madam Li? Neighbors should help each other. Everyone has inconveniences. Besides, there is too much meat for Madam Li to carry alone. I will call a brother to come with me. Each of us can take half and then we can carry it to the county."

The Wang brothers were all strong and sturdy, able to carry and lift things. She estimated that it would be difficult for her to lift even half of this meat, not to mention the journey.

Guihua went back to the village early to get the meat.

At this moment, the brothers were using pottery basins and wooden barrels, carrying the meat and peeled skin, and were about to leave. When Haopo heard that they were going back, she also came out of the main house with the stone.

She had been in the house all the time. Her sons were busy working there, so it would be inappropriate for her to leave.

Li Changle took out a soup bowl with a large meat pie from the kitchen, "Auntie, take this back and let everyone in the family taste it. Also..."

This pancake looks really big, with meat inside and giving off a rich aroma of braised meat.

She held a hemp rope in her hand, picked a processed rabbit from the pottery basin, tied it with the rope, and handed it to a brother who had nothing in his hands. "Take this back and eat it slowly. We all have to get through this winter, and next year will be better."

The pheasant was replaced by a rabbit. I'm afraid the rabbits were caught by the wolfhounds in the deep mountains, and they were all fat.

Just consider it as a reward to thank them for making a special trip to the county to help process the meat.

The good mother-in-law couldn't refuse in any way and had to give it back to her, and she almost accidentally dropped the soup basin on the ground.

Li Changle: "Auntie, please don't refuse. If you don't accept it, I won't bother your family anymore."

She was telling the truth. Given her original body's physical condition, even if she had traveled through time and space, she would still need some time to recuperate because her foundation was too weak.

She went to the county yesterday and worked in the vegetable garden last night. Her calves are swollen today and she doesn't even want to go out of the yard.

The good mother-in-law couldn't persuade her and didn't insist.

After returning, he told everyone in the family, especially his daughter-in-law Guihua, to help Madam Li with the heavy work in any way they can.

Li Changle also asked Wang Dahu to help her buy a few things after exchanging the meat for money, including a wooden barrel, a wooden basin for the kitchen, a ceramic basin for kneading dough, and a deep iron pot.

Wang Dahu agreed to all the requests and walked back to the village along the hill with his mother and brothers.

Li Changle bolted the gate and went to the woodshed to pull out some spinach plants.

He laughed as he pulled the vegetables out, "We can harvest them tomorrow. What kind of magical vegetable seeds are these?"

For lunch, I had egg and spinach soup, served with braised pork sandwich.

Li Shixi was amazed by the braised pork, a non-vegetarian dish. "Aunt, what does this meat taste like?"

"It's a marinade, essential for stewing meat."

"What is marinade? When my mother was alive, we ate meat at home, and my grandfather occasionally took me to restaurants, but I have never tasted meat that tastes like this. Do people in Kyoto eat meat that tastes this good?"

Li Changle was eating a delicious stewed pork bun while feeding the fish. Hearing what Li Shixi said, he was a little confused.

"So how do you usually eat meat?"

"My mother would stew the meat with radish, dried cabbage or beans, and also with soybean paste. It was stewed until it was soft and mushy. My grandfather and I loved it."

Li Changle understood that it was estimated that dishes like braised food had not yet been included in cookbooks at that time, or that wealthy families had more cooking methods, but the methods that Li Shixi mentioned were the most common ones among the public.

"Which flavor do you think is best?"

Li Shixi said without thinking:

"My aunt's cooking is more delicious, but I'm used to my mother's cooking, and it's not bad either."

Li Changle smiled and praised him, "You really know how to talk."

I was thinking about something else in my mind.

Give her a few days to recover.

After lunch, Li Changle received another 23 contribution points sporadically.

Current contribution points: 74.

"Ding! Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda! Host, this is a limited-time mission, please accept it!"

Li Changle: "..." Another life-saving mission.

"What mission? How long is the time limit?"

The contribution points of the limited-time mission reward are greater than 5, so you can still give it a try, but I don’t know if the mission is dangerous.

“Host, don’t worry. I just want you to bring some food and drink to the lonely old woman. Don’t let her lose her life.

The host is limited to completing the task within 48 hours. "

Li Changle felt strange. "Is the old man in Lushui Village? Most people in this village have some sympathy for my two children. They are more tolerant of their own villagers than us outsiders, right?"

system: ……

The system was silent again.

Li Changle rolled his eyes secretly. Why did he only say half of the words?
