Chapter 4
The meticulously combed shoulder-length hair made An Jingchen's thin figure appear taller and taller. Looking at the young man's back as he turned away, I always felt that there was a distant, cold and noble temperament in his bones.

Qiao Muchao lay quietly on the bamboo chair, staring at the gray-brown adobe wall, recalling the horror before the plane crash. She thought she was certain to die, but she didn't expect such a bizarre time travel!
The world is full of wonders...

Listening to the chirping of insects and birds outside the window, her state of mind was unprecedentedly peaceful. Surviving a catastrophe must be a blessing, right?
She has the same name and surname as the original owner. The only difference is that the original owner was born with the character wood, and she was named Yao because her mother's surname was wood and the five elements lacked fire.In my previous life, I was a well-known Chinese medicine practitioner in the industry. I was busy with consultations, trainings, and lectures every day. After get off work, I did Tai Chi, yoga, and skin care... Even though I lived alone, my days were still busy.

It seems like a refined and decent life, but growing up in a rural area, she has had an idyllic dream since she was a child.

During this time travel, although the family was poor, they had no top elders to serve, and no children to feed.Although the nominal husband is a little aloof, he is not a heinous person, and his life seems to be pretty good.

Just as I was thinking happily, my stomach suddenly growled, and that's right... This body had eaten some very thin millet porridge in the morning, so it's no wonder that it wasn't hungry!
Qiao Muyao stood up and turned around, and found that there were two eggs in the chicken coop. Except for the basket of bamboo shoots that had not yet been peeled, there was nothing she liked to eat.

Smelling the natural aroma of bamboo shoots, her taste buds were aroused and she suddenly wanted to eat bamboo shoots peeled by hand. However, in the memory of the original owner, villagers generally did not use Sichuan peppercorns and other condiments when cooking.

Hand-peeled bamboo shoots without Sichuan peppercorns and chili peppers are hand-peeled bamboo shoots without soul, but this is not a problem for her.If you don’t have Sichuan peppercorns, you can use bamboo leaf peppers instead. If you don’t have peppers, you can also use dogwood, and these medicinal materials are available in your family.

The original owner's mother, Zhang's ancestors, made a living by collecting herbs. Before her grandfather died, she was a well-known doctor. Her mother also learned some skills. Women and children in the village who despised the disease would often collect herbs, boil them in water, drink or wash them under her guidance. .

Influenced by her mother, the original owner has recognized many herbal medicines since she was a child, and even knows the medicinal properties of some herbs. Thinking of this, she suddenly felt that God was not kind to her.

He went to the kitchen to pick up half a bucket of water and found that there was no one in the kitchen. Qiao Muyao didn't bother to pay attention. Anyway, she didn't expect to eat the food he cooked.

Picking up the scissors in the sewing basket, he quickly cut off the green old bamboo shoots below and the fleshless tender skin above, and made a shallow cut from top to bottom before putting them in a bucket to soak.

After packing up the bamboo shoots, it was almost dark, Qiao Muyao stretched her tingling legs and feet, and then set off to get condiments from her mother's house not far away.

As soon as he walked out the door, he saw An Jingchen's shoes and trouser legs stained with yellow mud, and he was walking back with a few green vegetables in his arms.This was the first time I saw him in such a miserable state, and I found it a bit funny.

Qiao Muyao suppressed her laughter and passed him by with an expressionless face. The two of them under the same roof were like strangers, neither of them thought of talking to the other.

Looking at the lingering smoke and smelling the faint fragrance of food in the air, she felt inexplicably happy. Sure enough, the smell of fireworks in the world is the most soothing to mortals' hearts!
The distance from her mother's house to her husband's house was only two or three hundred meters. As soon as she walked into the yard, Chang Guihua, the eldest aunt of the original owner, yelled angrily: "You shameless bitch, why do you have the nerve to come? You're just embarrassing me, the Qiao family." It’s over, why don’t you die!”

In the memory of the original owner, this vicious and stinky woman had never given her mother a good look since her father left. On the contrary, all the dirty work was theirs.

"Whether I die or not is none of your business!"

Qiao Muyao gave her a sharp look, "You have such a bad mouth, I suggest you take some Coptis chinensis to relieve your anger."

The tone was really harsh during this period. Chang Guihua suddenly became angry when she heard these words, "What a bastard, how dare you glare at me? I think you need to deal with it!"

After saying this, he took the broom and hit Qiao Muyao head and face.

Haha, I am not as good-tempered as the original owner. I can be beaten or scolded without fighting back!
Qiao Muyao ducked and stumbled down with a sweeping kick.This damn girl had never talked back before. Chang Guihua was unprepared and fell directly to the ground, and came into close contact with the dirty broom in her hand.

Unexpectedly, this body was more agile than she thought. Qiao Muchao stood up straight, smiled and clapped her hands, "It just rained two days ago, and the ground is slippery. Be careful when walking, or you may break your bones." "

"You're a bastard who can kill a thousand swords. Even if you talk back, you actually dare to fight back. Let's see how I deal with your mother..." Chang Guihua stood up with her hands on her knees, moaning and cursing incessantly.

Still hungry, Qiao Muchao didn't bother to tangle with such an unreasonable evil woman, and walked directly past her towards the house.

"Sister, you are amazing!"

Qiao Muyang came over with eyes wide open. He had just been hiding behind the door and saw everything clearly.

"Where's your...mother? I want to find her."

Qiao Muyao lowered her voice, for fear of alarming the original owner's grandmother, who was also a master who ate bones without spitting out the dregs!

Qiao Muyang took her straight to the kitchen without saying a word.

There was such a big commotion outside, so Mrs. Zhang naturally heard it. She was afraid that the vegetable pancakes in the pot would be burnt and it would be difficult to go out to see it.

Knowing her daughter's purpose, she quickly scooped up the pancakes baked in the pot and took advantage of no one to pick up the cabbage leaves. She wrapped two pancakes and hurriedly gave them to her daughter, "Take these two pancakes back and give Jingchen one each."

Knowing that her daughter was in a bad situation, Zhang secretly supported her daughter many times like today.

Whether it was the natural ingredients or her skill in craftsmanship, the hot vegetable pancake smelled particularly fragrant, and Qiao Muyao couldn't wait to eat it immediately.

Mrs. Zhang was very quick and quickly went to the back room to find the medicinal materials she wanted. She was afraid that her sister-in-law would come to trouble her, so she urged her to grab the cakes and leave quickly.

Smelling the aroma of cakes in her sleeves and watching her busy, Qiao Muyao's nose felt sore, and she suddenly thought of her mother in her previous life.

When Qiao Muyang learned that he wanted to peel bamboo shoots by hand, he immediately shouted to go. Zhang couldn't resist, so she had to let him go with his sister.

Soak the bamboo shoots in water and scrub them clean. Put the washed bamboo shoots into a crockpot, add water that has not covered the bamboo shoots, then add coarse salt and the prepared seasoning packet, and you are ready to start cooking.

After finishing all the work, he had time to look at the person who was lighting the fire in front of the stove. He saw that his handsome cheeks were covered with black soot, just like the cat with a colorful face. Qiao Muyao couldn't help but smile. got up.

Qiao Muyang was throwing firewood into the earthen kiln under the earthen pots. Seeing his sister smiling so happily, he looked over curiously and found that his unsmiling brother-in-law looked like this at the moment. He immediately fell forward and backward with laughter.

The demonic laughter of the two siblings made An Jingchen's brows furrow deeper and deeper, "Are you laughing?"

"Smile, what are you cooking in this pot?"

Qiao Muyao reluctantly stopped laughing, walked to the stove and looked at the plate of green vegetables that were half burnt and half still raw, and couldn't help laughing.
