Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 2 Vegetarian Meatballs

[Life countdown: 15 days, 14:31:11 seconds...]

Gu Xiang raised his eyes silently, and his eyes flicked across the system interface - one meal per person can provide about one gourmet point, which is an hour of life.

She felt a little relieved.

If you cook three meals a day, as long as the eight diners are satisfied, you can barely make ends meet. This is much better than she imagined. She almost thought that she would be busy in front of the stove all day long.

If so, cooking really becomes an irresistible task.

Gu Xiang is only grateful for the new life opportunities brought by the system, and he will not complain about the hard work, but if he can make this process enjoyable, so that he can get happiness while gaining life, what's wrong with it?
Looking back, I saw that my grandfather and the others were all enjoying their faces, and they were all licking their bowls carefully. They couldn't help but smile, and couldn't help feeling a little bit of satisfaction in their hearts, and hurriedly scooped up the soup for them.

The soup is the soup that was specially saved when cooking the porridge last night. I added a little wild vegetable, a little dried shrimp, and a little thick soup.

The thick soup treasure was made by Gu Xiangchuan with ingredients such as chicken feet, pork bones, and lemons. She made three big pots and put them in the system space to keep fresh. She liked it very much. Like a big killer, just adding a little will make a pot of wild vegetable soup extremely delicious.

The mouth of the bowl moved slightly, and the umami taste of the soup suddenly burst out. It was much more overbearing than the vegetable ball just now. Even the uncle who usually liked to gossip while eating was silent for a while. With the only gentleness in her life, she sipped Sip and drink.

A mouthful of thick soup burst on the tip of the tongue, and the sweat and toil of the whole morning seemed to have softened a little.

Mr. Gu smacked his lips in enjoyment, and sighed: "My old lady is really unlucky, but at this time, she took Erniang, Shiro, and Goro back to her mother's house to visit relatives."

Uncle Gu secretly rolled his eyes, if his mother was here, he might not be able to eat such a good meal.

Gu Xiang's craftsmanship has improved a lot. Uncle Gu and Gu Laoshi privately feel that it is because of the absence of Mrs. Gu who was in charge of the cooking.

With Mrs. Gu here, Gu Xiang can make a move. How can he have a chance to take charge of the stove?
Although it was just an ordinary meal of wild vegetables and noodles, the members of the Gu family were all full, and they seemed to be stronger than before after eating.

The workers nearby looked at Gu Laoshi's family with red faces, and their eyes turned red with envy.

The sun was burning hard.

Gu Xiang took care of the young and old in the family to eat, looked up at the messy construction site, sat down on the spot, picked up a dead branch, and drew on the ground.

Gu's mother hadn't finished her Jiang's soup yet, when she saw that her daughter's ears were full of sweat, she immediately felt distressed: "San Niang, go home and rest, it's hard to get better, it hurts to death if you get sunburned."

Grandpa Gu and Father Gu came back to their senses, and hurriedly greeted Gu Xiang to go home.

The Gu family is not a poor family in Guzhuang. After all, there are a few acres of land, so of course they are not rich. However, Gu Xiang was born delicate and weak, and her father, Gu Laoshi, is famous for loving his wife and children. Commonly known as inner fear, she hasn't worked in the fields since she was a child. She has good skin, and the girls in the village are not as fair and tender as her. She looks like the daughter of a rich family.

Not only is she born white, but Gu Xiang’s facial features are also very good, unlike her parents’ mediocrity. Since she was 13 years old, she has been asked to play the role of Guanyin at every temple fair in the village. Even the magistrate Wang from the capital is willing to praise her In a word, the Guanyin in Guzhuang is the best and the most divine.

Jiang often said that the girl was too spoiled, but she was very proud of it in her heart. Now that the girl has reached the age of marriage, she is even more unwilling to let the girl do clumsy work.

However, there have been countless natural disasters in the past few years, and it is difficult to get a full stomach. No matter how much Gu Laoshi and his wife dote on their daughter, they still watch her haggard day by day, more and more embarrassing day by day, but this girl has a stubborn temper. Secretly saving his own rations and subsidizing them to the Li family next door, Jiang was really annoyed by this.

Finally, in the past few days, my daughter has seen her recovery and her complexion has improved. She is happy in her heart, and she is even more careful.

Gu Xiang responded, but her subordinates kept on talking. She is not the kind of person with outstanding talents in mathematics, but she just graduated from university before time travel, and she went to a famous university. She was still a science major, and she never dawdled in college. In order to get a scholarship and find a job after graduation, she never relaxed in her studies.

Now she simply does the math, and it's not difficult to help the Gu family improve their efficiency a little bit.

After a while, Gu Xiang raised his head and smiled and said, "Uncle, Father, you change positions. Father is here to dig river mud, uncle, you go to move stones, Grandpa, don't do anything else, just push the cart, uncle, you Go forward fifteen and a half steps, Auntie..."

The Gu family was at a loss for Gu Xiang to fiddle with for a long time, and then she heard her say seriously: "Grandpa, your work speed is too slow, I will give you neat and tidy, a few hundred taels, tens of thousands or twenty thousand can't be imagined, but it can't be said." Our family can also think about the reward of one tael of silver in the county."

The few laborers around who were dawdling in eating burst out laughing when they heard this: "Hahahaha, honestly Gu, this girl of yours is really interesting."

"Doesn't it mean that this child has a weak spleen and stomach, and there is no other problem? I think the problem with this head is not small."

"What are you talking about?"

Gu Laoshi was angry.

In fact, he didn't believe that his family had the opportunity to compete for any rewards from the county.

As long as he can remember, he can often hear that the imperial court conscripts hard labor and often gives out various rewards. Sometimes there are thousands of acres of fertile land, and sometimes there are hundreds of coins. It is said that this is the old practice of Empress Rongde in the past. I heard, but I never dare to think about it.

Those who dare to think about those rewards must be big families in the county, the kind that raise dozens or hundreds of Ding Haonu under their hands.

It's just that if you don't believe it or not, it won't work if others laugh at his girl.

The Gu family's family inevitably had some conflicts in private, but they were always united externally, and at this time the most rigid Mrs. Gu was not around, and everyone else was much smoother and more casual.Gu Xiang asked them to change things step by step, and it wasn't troublesome. Even if they didn't think so, they were willing to do it in order to take care of their children's face.

On the first day, I worked according to Xiang Xiang's instructions, and the effect was not outstanding. Gu Laoshi and the others still felt a little awkward with their hands tied.

Early in the morning of the second day, Gu Xiang got up before dawn and worked in the kitchen for half an hour, using only wild vegetables, kudzu root, mixed noodles, tofu and mushrooms, dipped a little bit of sauce, and made a pot full of meat Fragrant meatballs.

She also found some corn and boiled it, the corn was rough, but she polished it carefully, added a little sugar and stirred it to enhance the flavor, and the heat was well controlled, the oil was boiled, it was really sweet.

After starting work, Gu Xiang made an agreement with his grandfather, uncle, etc., that today there will be "orders and prohibitions", and whoever makes a cup of tea without making mistakes will add an extra ball and a spoonful of corn rice to his meal.

As soon as the fragrant meatballs appeared on the side of the road, the Gu family was dazed. No matter what Gu Xiang said, they just nodded and agreed, and they were full of energy.

Not to mention, Gu Xiang taught her hand in hand for a few days, and the Gu family's work speed has been accelerated a lot. If this continues, they may be able to finish their errands in less than a month, even if they dare not compete with those Dahubi may really hope to compete for the rewards in the county.

Seeing that the reward in the county was in sight, this time there was no need to be tempted and urged, and the whole family took Gu Xiang's explanation to heart.

The sun was still hot.

After a whole day's work, Gu Laoshi sat on the haystack by the side of the mountain, took a bite of the meaty vegetarian meatballs, squinted his eyes and sighed, completely satisfied.

【倒计时：13天18时50分……13天20时52分……】

Gu Xiang didn't feel sad when she watched the countdown to her life for the first time, and she was quite satisfied just because her father, Gu Laoshi, added more than three hours to her life with one meal alone.

Sure enough, the mood of diners is also very important, and must not be neglected.
