Chapter 21: Seen Again
By the evening, a large area of kudzu root had been almost dug up.
The villagers began to carry the Pueraria root home on their backs or on their shoulders.
Ye Xinran and Changping had already returned once, and this time they dug a little more. Fortunately, Zhang Dali's family pushed a cart over, put their kudzu roots on the cart, and pulled them back together.
"Mrs. Chen, have you restored all the Pueraria root in your home?" Ye Xinran asked on the way.
Chen looked at the fully loaded car with a smile on her face: "It's all loaded back! The child's father said that he will go to the mountains to look for the remaining kudzu roots tomorrow morning. It is estimated that we can get about 200 kilograms. This is enough for us to eat for a long time."
"That's good. Life will be better if we can hold out until the new grain arrives."
Ye Xinran echoed.
"Who said it wasn't!" Chen smiled. "When I get home later, I'll cook a big pot of yesterday's purple yam and this kudzu root together so that the children can have a full meal."
"Well, when I get back later, I'll use the kudzu root to make a soup for you."
Ye Xinran originally wanted to make some kudzu root bone soup, but then she thought, where are the bones at home? The only bit of meat was made by her.
Now there are only vegetarian dishes left at home.
"By the way, Mrs. Chen, how do you usually go to the city?" Ye Xinran felt that she should go to the city to buy some things.
Chen immediately replied, "The Niu family in the village goes to the city every other day. The fee is 3 cents per person. If you want to go, you can go with the car in the morning and come back with the car in the evening."
"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow." Ye Xinran thanked him.
When they got home, Changping and Ye Xinran put the dug kudzu roots in the corner of the kitchen.
Then Ye Xinran washed her hands and began to prepare dinner.
With the rice taken out from the space and the noodles stored in the space, there is no need to worry about food at home for the time being.
What urgently needs improvement is the meat and eggs at home.
Ye Xinran was making plans while cooking.
It is not practical to go to the city to buy meat every few days, and if you buy too much at one time, it will not be able to be stored.
So she had to buy a few chickens, ducks and geese. These poultry can lay eggs when they grow up, and those that don't lay eggs can be eaten for meat, which can perfectly solve the problem of nutritional meal planning.
If the place is large, you can actually raise a pig.
But now, if we bring a pig into this yard, we will have to live with the smell of pig manure every day.
Let's wait until the house is bigger.
I made white rice in the evening, boiled soup with diced kudzu root, and stir-fried a plate of purple yam.
Although the food was not as good as the previous two days, the children all enjoyed it very much.
Even Changsheng started talking and laughing with his brothers, becoming a little more cheerful.
After dinner, Changsheng discussed with Ye Xinran: "Aunt, I feel my legs are healed now, I can go to school tomorrow."
"You've only had one day's rest, how can you be better? Stay at home for two more days." Ye Xinran disagreed.
"I have finished all the homework I brought back, and I want to go to the school to learn something new from the teacher." Chang'an still tried to persuade.
"Doesn't Erdan go to school every day? Wait for him to come back in the evening and ask him to come home and explain it to you."
"I understand." Changsheng wanted to say something but stopped. Seeing Ye Xinran insisted, he had no choice but to agree.
As night falls, the originally bustling village immediately falls into silence.
No one was willing to light a lamp these days, so everyone packed up and went to bed as soon as it got dark.
Ye Xinran waited until the children fell asleep and then returned to her own space.
The appearance of rice and flour yesterday gave Ye Xinran great confidence. It seemed that the more she integrated into her current life, the more things in the space would appear.
She first checked the Snow Face Cream that was in production. The machine was running normally. Once all the processes were completed, she would get the finished product.
Next, it’s time to try your luck.
Now she always wanted to come in from time to time to check how much of the thick fog in the space had dissipated.
The fact was just as she expected. The thick fog in the cafeteria dispersed a little, revealing the stove.
There are all kinds of seasonings such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar.
There are also kitchen knives, spoons and various kitchen utensils.
The utensils are easy to deal with, but the seasoning is what Ye Xinran really needs right now.
With these seasonings, she can make the braised pork taste better and she doesn't have to put only salt in the soup.
Wuhu!
Life is really getting better day by day.
She first took out a bag of salt and a bag of sugar, ready to pour them into the jar tomorrow.
As for the other seasonings, she would have to wait until she bought some from the market before they could appear properly.
After inspecting the space, Ye Xinran went upstairs contentedly to wash up and go to bed. While taking a shower, she greedily admired her figure in front of the mirror.
Her snow-white skin was sparkling with water droplets, and her hair was thick and black, which made her face look very delicate.
White skin and smooth hair, these were what Ye Xinran longed for in her previous life.
In her previous life, her hair was dry, hard, and even a little curly.
After straightening, it sticks to the scalp, and if it is not straightened, it looks like a frizzy lion. It has never been so soft and smooth.
She really likes the way she is now.
Even though half of her face was ruined, she still liked it.
Just as I was enjoying the view, there was a knock on the door outside.
Who is knocking at the door so late?
No one can discover her secret.
Ye Xinran got excited and threw the skirt she had worn on over her body, then retreated from the space.
She had just returned to the house when the door of the room was opened from the outside and a tall figure appeared at the door.
"Who?" Ye Xinran turned around and saw Xiao Huaian with a shocked look on his face.
The man also turned his head away immediately after seeing Ye Xinran clearly.
"You, put on your clothes."
Ye Xinran lowered her head and realized that she had come out too hastily and the belt of her clothes was not fastened properly, leaving a gap in front of her chest, with half of each of her round halves exposed.
Further down, because of the water droplets still on, the thin hem of the skirt stuck to the thighs, and the two white and slender calves were also exposed to the air.
