Rebirth of a Farmhouse with Space

Afterwards, Nan Ye pinched Nan Zhaozhao's nose with one hand and picked him up with the other hand, "Oh, you're so slow, hurry to the river!"

Nan Zhaozhao was carried on his back like a piglet by his brother and ran to the river. Nan Chen had just come back from the mountain with a load of firewood. Seeing this scene, he thought Nan Ye had gone crazy and was going to throw Xiaobao into the river. The second brother chased after him, "This damn boy, he must be tired of living and wants to get beaten!"

Nan Chen threw down the firewood and chased after Nan Ye, cursing as he ran, "You bastard, put your little sister down right now! If you scare her, I'll beat you to death!"

Nan Ye didn't hear clearly what his father said, but she knew that his father was here too. She put Nan Zhaozhao in the shallow water and said to the second child, "You come and wash her!"

Nan Ye said as he dived into the river. Nan Chen approached and asked, "What's going on?"

Nan Huai explained, "My little sister may have pooped on herself, and it stinks. My brother said to take my little sister to the river to wash her!"

"Did the poop poop on me?" Nan Chen leaned in and sniffed. "Oh, it really is. How can it be so smelly? Can I still wash it?"

"Dad, what are you talking about!"

Nan Chen felt a little embarrassed and spoke out his true feelings, "Then you wash it, I'll carry the firewood back home, your mother has been gone for so long and I don't know when she will be back!"

After Nan Chen walked away, Nan Huai began to help Nan Zhaozhao take off her clothes one by one. He found that Xiao Mei's body was covered with black, sticky and smelly liquid. It was not Xiao Mei's poop, but more like dirt excreted from the body, just like sweat. But why? How could such a thing happen to Xiao Bao? He couldn't figure it out, "Xiao Bao, what's going on? Why are there so many black things on your body?"

Nan Zhaozhao shook her head, "I don't know either!"

Yes, what could a child who is not even five years old know? It would be useless to ask, "Ah! Little sister, what you said is very standard, not bad, not bad!"

Sitting in the water, the river water flooded over Nan Zhaozhao's armpits, and the black liquid on her body was washed away by the river water. Nan Huai picked up the clean little Zhaozhao from the river, and then used his own clothes to wipe the water off her body. He stood up and said, "Brother, help me wash my clothes. I will take me home first!"

In June, it was okay to get up without clothes, but it would not look very pretty. Nan Huai took a piece of her mother's clothes and put it on Nan Zhaozhao, "Your clothes will dry quickly, wear mother's clothes first!"

The sun was high above our heads. It was noon when Ms. Dong came back. She had just followed Sister Hua up the mountain and had gained a lot. Let’s not talk about the wild vegetables. In her last life, she spent hundreds of dollars in the supermarket to buy half a pound of Hericium erinaceus. Ms. Dong brought back six of them, which were very large. There were also several other varieties of mushrooms. “Oh, you don’t know. They don’t even know that Hericium erinaceus is edible. And this, the mountain fern, is so fresh and tender. And these old mushrooms, they have never eaten them. They said they were worried that they were poisonous and would kill people!”

Nan Huai said, "Mom, I'm not worried about anything. You know these mushrooms are not poisonous because you've eaten them, but I haven't eaten them!"

Nan Chen was overjoyed to see his wife bringing back so many mountain products, "Wife, is there any more on the mountain?"

"There are too many. There are few people here, and there are many mountains. No one picks them!"

"Then I'll go up the mountain with you tomorrow!"

Nan Ye supported his knees with his hands and asked, "Dad, aren't you going to help build a house in the village tomorrow?"

"Oh, you forgot about this?" Nan Chen covered his forehead and looked at the commotion. "Well, the two of you go with us and try to save more for the winter!"

Ms. Dong smiled mysteriously and said, "I have one more thing to tell you. I found this in the mountains!"

Ms. Dong took out a few thin red peppers from her pocket and asked, "Is this wild pepper?"

Ms. Dong said, "Well, I found that people here don't eat chili peppers. This is a great business opportunity. We just need to cultivate these peppers into household peppers, then we will make a fortune!"

Nan Chen asked, "Are there many wild peppers?"

Ms. Dong answered without thinking, "A lot, all over the place, many of them have turned red and black. Sister Hua and the others also said that this plant is very annoying. If you touch the red fruits on it, your hands will burn and hurt for a long time!"

Nan Chen said, "Then there is no need to cultivate them. We can pick them when the time comes. If you find it tiring, we can just buy them and let others pick them for us. I just want to ask, what are you going to do with these peppers?"

Ms. Dong gave Nan Chen a look of criticism and said, "Are you stupid? With chili peppers, we can go to the county town to start a chili powder business!"

"The problem is that people don't eat chili peppers!"

"Then let's make barbecue, spicy hot pot and noodles with chili oil first, so that they can accept and get used to the taste!"

Nan Huai gave his mother a thumbs up, "Mom, you are awesome!"

Ms. Dong was happy to see that there were still people who appreciated her. "Of course, this is not something that can be done in a short time. It requires gradual accumulation. For example, if we have no money to buy other spices right now, we can only go up the mountain to find them ourselves!"

"Mom, Xiaobao is hungry." Nan Zhaozhao, wearing Ms. Dong's clothes, crawled into Nan Ye's armpit!

"Hey, Xiaobao is hungry. I'll make you something to eat. Why are you still wearing my clothes?"

Nan Huai replied, "Xiao Bao doesn't have any change of clothes, and her own dirty clothes are still hanging outside to dry! Let her wear yours first!"

Nan Chen felt a little guilty. It was all because of his uselessness that he couldn't even afford a set of clothes!

Ms. Dong also sighed, wishing she could enter the space as well. There were sewing machines and all kinds of fabrics in the space, and she could make any kind of clothes she wanted for Xiaobao!

Ms. Dong washed her hands. "Today we will have some pancakes and two dishes. I taught Sister Hua and the others on the mountain before that elm bark contains a lot of starch. We can grind it into sauce and filter it before settling it. There are a lot of big elm trees on the mountain here. As long as we are diligent, we will have no problem getting through the winter!"

Nan Chen helped to light the fire in the small stove, and Hu said, "You are quite kind!"

"Alas, we are all miserable people, no one is born evil!"

"What else did you teach them to eat besides elm bark?"

"In addition to elm bark, there are many wild taro on the mountain. Mrs. Hu said that they had eaten this taro and it was poisonous. I asked her how she ate it, and she said that she ate it like this, peeling off the black hair on the outside, and then eating it like that! That made her husband itchy, and he wanted to cut his hands and mouth with a knife! If the taro is peeled and eaten raw, who would it itch if he didn't!"

"Then did you later explain to her how to eat this taro?"

"After the introduction, she asked me, 'Sister Dong, how come you know so much?'"

Nan Chen couldn't wait to ask, "What did you say?"

"What else can I say? I can't possibly tell them that I lived in the south in my previous life and that I've eaten everything you've seen or not seen here! I can only tell them that my mother lived in the south since she was a child and that she taught me. Later, I followed the refugees across mountains and rivers to the north. Anyway, my mother is long gone and they have no evidence!"

"Yes, I know your own mother is gone, but what about the mother of the original owner of this body?"

Ms. Dong turned her head and looked at Xiaobao who was sitting at the door playing with his two brothers. She lowered her voice and said, "I really didn't expect this. Logically speaking, the original owner was living such a miserable life. Her family should have come to see her and support her daughter. But no one came even at the end!"
