Escape from the famine at the beginning: I rely on space to spoil Lord Shoufu

Chapter 199 Why Do I Smell Sauerkraut?

Wang Zhou was alone, and Tao Xi also dealt with the winter bamboo shoots he found along the way.

It was already dark after finishing all this, and everyone went back to the house one after another.

The sweet potatoes eaten directly at night were winter bamboo shoots, and Tao Xi quietly took a few preserved eggs and salted duck eggs from the space to share with everyone.

"Shh."

The sound insulation effect of this thatched hut is not very good. If you say something loudly, you can hear it clearly from the next door.

Everyone was very cooperative, even the youngest, Jian Shiyi, obediently peeled the salted duck eggs, and after eating, everyone gave the garbage to Jian Shiwu.

While everyone was sleeping, he was quietly buried in the snowdrift outside.

hiccup~
Jian Shiyi couldn't help hiccupping, he quickly covered his mouth in horror, his appearance was so cute, Tao Xi couldn't help laughing, and said loudly on purpose:

"Little brother, drink water slowly. Although this water can fill your stomach, it will be very cold when you get up at night."

"I see."

Jian Shiyi covered her small mouth cooperatively, then got into the quilt, hiccupped a few times in the quilt, afraid that Jian's second child and Jian's old dog family would hear it.

Jian's second child next door and the others did hear it, but they didn't care. Wang broke the sweet potato into two halves with distress, and handed half to Sanni.

"Sanni, eat."

"Eat more, both of you, I'll just eat half of it."

Without Mrs. Jane, Jane's second child also learned to feel sorry for his wife and daughter, but was rejected by Wang.

"You still have to guard our village tomorrow. If you fight with the people in Lishu Village, what can you do if you don't have the strength."

In this time of famine, no matter what she is a woman, she has to rely on a man to protect her.

Jian's second child was silent. In fact, everyone is feeling uncomfortable at the moment. Jian Laogou left the biggest sweet potato to his wife.

"Old dog, eat more."

Mrs. Jian Laogou broke off a large piece of sweet potato and handed it to Jian Laogou, but the old dog refused.

"Sister-in-law, you eat."

In private, he always likes to call her sister-in-law, but the old bitch Jane has no choice but to say like Wang:

"You have to go up the mountain tomorrow, and if you eat more, you can find more food and come back."

"You still have one in your stomach, you eat."

The old dog Jian was very persistent, and he stuffed the sweet potato into the hands of the old lady Jian. Jian Dalang couldn't stand it anymore, so he broke off a small half of his own sweet potato and gave it to his second uncle.

"Eat."

In fact, he has some opinions on the second uncle, because in his heart he only thinks that he is the second uncle, but he did not expect that he married his own mother!
Sensing Jian Dalang's change, Jian Laogou and his wife looked at each other with relief in their eyes.

Dalang has finally grown up!
In the past two days, Tao Xi was extremely tired, and finally, after everyone fell asleep, she quietly entered the space.

My aunt is almost clean, except that it was too cold to take a bath on the first day, and Taoxi didn't dare to take a bath later, she just scrubbed in the space and then soaked her feet in hot water.

When she came to the space tonight, she first exchanged chilblain ointment, a small one cost ten points, but it made her feel distressed.

But looking at her swollen and itchy hands from the cold, Tao Xi didn't dare to bet. She remembered that a classmate had chilblains on her hands in her previous life.

Even though it recovered later, it was still slightly swollen, which affected the appearance very much. She still wanted a hand with slender fingers.

It's a pity that there are not enough medicinal materials, otherwise she can make some chilblain ointment by herself according to the prescription written by her grandfather.

When I was thinking wildly, chilblain ointment had been applied to my fingertips, it was itchy and quite comfortable.

After waiting for about half an hour, Tao Xi felt that his hands were much better, and then he got busy in the space.

Still picking eggs and duck eggs, there are more and more chickens and ducks in the space, and the little rabbits also gave birth to several nests in the space.

Fortunately, she often secretly feeds these animals some food by distraction, otherwise her vegetables would have to be ruined.

Another batch of vegetables was harvested, Tao Xi got greedy, got some spicy cabbage from the jar, and cut some sour radish.

Then he boiled another pot of hard-boiled eggs, and then fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up early, Jian Erni had already stewed a very simple dried wild vegetable porridge, which was quite deceptive.

Taking advantage of going to the kitchen, Tao Xi quietly brought in a bowl of spicy cabbage and sour radish.

"Come on, let's have breakfast."

After people lived next door, they became more careful when eating. Looking at the spicy cabbage and pickled radish in the bowl, the eyes of the children were shining.

Jian Shiming scooped up the porridge for everyone with a smile, and put some spicy cabbage and pickled radish into the bowls for each person, making Jian Shiming drool easily.

"very hungry."

"Eat when you're hungry."

Tao Xi mixed it with chopsticks, and the porridge suddenly had a sour and spicy taste, so sour and refreshing in this cold weather.

Remembering that she hadn't exaggerated sister-in-law for a long time, Jian Erni rolled her eyes and said quickly:

"The porridge made from dried wild vegetables made by my sister-in-law is really delicious."

"Twenty points."

Jian Shiyi's eyes narrowed, and his small mouth sighed: "Well, it smells so good, sister-in-law, you are so kind!"

"Twenty points."

A few people clapped a wave of rainbow farts speciously, and Tao Xi's points skyrocketed again. She couldn't help but praised everyone for getting better.

The old bitch Jane next door has a very sensitive nose because of her pregnancy, and she couldn't help sniffing.

"Why do I smell sauerkraut?"

"Who has the time to make sauerkraut these days? You must have smelled it wrong. Eat it quickly. I'll have to go out today after eating."

The old dog Jian quickly ate the sweet potato in his hand, put on his coat and hurried to the yard.

He planned to sweep the snow in the yard before going out, and Jane's second child also went to help when he saw this.

When Tao Xi and the others saw this scene, they were immediately embarrassed, and Jian Shiwu rushed out like a little firecracker.

"I'll help too."

He doesn't want to take advantage of others!

Recently, Wang Zhou was also very depressed following the food and drink. Finally, he found a chance and rushed out with a brisk walk.

Jian Erni quickly cleaned their bowls, Tao Xi was free, and simply dressed up and planned to go out.

Putting on a thick wool coat, carrying a bow and arrow on his back, wrapping a towel around his head and putting on a bamboo hat, the old bitch Jane happened to pass by, and said with a smile:
"Your bag is like a small rice dumpling. Although it is a bit inconvenient, it is warm."

"It's too cold in the mountains."

Tao Xi rubbed her hands, and after applying chilblain ointment, her hands were actually much better. Standing outside the house, she still couldn't help but breathe into her hands.

"Yeah, I don't know when it will be the end. If this continues, the wheat we planted before will not survive."

The old bitch Jane is a good person who grows crops, so she has a better understanding of the growth cycle of wheat.

"Will...will freeze to death?"

Tao Xi froze in place, oh my god, she almost forgot that there was still wheat growing in the village.

If this continues, those seeds must be wasted. Wouldn't everyone go hungry again?
"Yes."

The old bitch Jane sighed, and looked up at the white sky, "I hope God will help us, this winter will pass sooner."

"We're all on that little wheat, too."

Mrs. Wang couldn't help interjecting, the food at home was getting less and less, and now they were calculating every meal, so they didn't dare to eat more.
