What did you say? Am I a pauper again?

Chapter 279 Steamed Buns
Jing Yuanzhi looked at the pink and tender lamb, then looked at Jiang's mother: "Mom, let's make a new nest for the ewe and the lamb!"

"Okay." Mother Jiang nodded. She also felt that it was a bit inconvenient for the ewe to continue living in the sheepfold after giving birth to the lamb.

The lamb is too small, and there are many sheep in the sheepfold, which is not very clean. One day the lamb might be accidentally stepped on to death by other sheep without anyone knowing.

"I'll tell your father when he gets back."

"Yeah!" Jing Yuanzhi nodded.

Then he looked at the other ewes whose bellies were already very bulging, and they were almost there too.

Among these ewes, the one with the most lambs is three, followed by two and one.

Mother Jiang took a few more handfuls of green grass and put them in front of the ewe, drove the sheep nearby away, leaving some space for the ewe and the lamb, and then went back.

Jing Yuanzhi also went back with him, and her snowflake crisps could be put on the agenda.

In the afternoon, when Huang Die and the others came back and learned that the ewe had given birth, they all ran to the sheepfold to see.

"This lamb is so small!" Huang Chunlei said in amazement as he looked at the lamb following the ewe.

"A newborn baby must be small." said Jiang's mother.

"Mom, how long will the lamb need to drink milk?" Huang Chunyang asked curiously.

The ginger mother was in a dilemma. She had never raised a ginger before and didn’t know: “I don’t know, but it definitely can’t eat grass now.”

"It's okay. Let's try raising them. We'll know after we raise more. Besides, the big families in the village raise sheep, so they should know the way. If we really can't figure it out, we can go and ask for their advice." Father Huang said with a smile.

"Yes!" Jing Yuanzhi nodded heavily.

The family watched the lamb for a while before returning home to eat.

After Jing Yuanzhi and others finished preparing the herbs that Li Ran had dug for her, they started to pick wild fruits on the back mountain every day.

After picking, make them into dried fruits and put them into the snowflake cake making process.

If these ewes give birth early, she can also use freshly picked wild fruits, which will make the food taste better.

Li Ran hasn't come here for several days.

The herbs prepared by Jing Yuanzhi were carried by Dad Huang to the town and sold to the pharmacy, and they made a lot of money!
Jing Yuanzhi took one third of the money and prepared to give it to Li Ran.

But he hadn't come over in the past few days, so she planned to go to his house to find him.

Jing Yuanzhi had never been to his house, but he knew where it was.

After saying something to Jiang's mother and the others, Jing Yuanzhi put the money he was going to give to Li Ran into a small bag and headed towards the hill.

After climbing over this small hill, you can see Li Ran’s house.

It looks very close, but there is still some distance when you walk.

Jingyuanzhi was just like taking a walk, walking leisurely and without any rush.

When we reached the highest point of the hill, we saw the houses below the hill, which were still made of blue bricks.

After looking around the area, I found that only this blue brick house was the closest one. This should be Li Ran's home.

Going downhill is much faster than going uphill, and it is not strenuous at all.

Jing Yuanzhi soon arrived at the door of the blue brick house, looked at the half-closed door, and reached out to knock on it.

"Excuse me, is this Li Ran's home?"

"It's me, Yinyin?"

When Li Ran heard the voice, he came out and saw Jing Yuanzhi standing at the door with a well-behaved look on his face.

"Yinyin, why are you here?" Li Ran was a little surprised and delighted.

Jing Yuanzhi walked in with a smile: "Of course I came to see you!"

"Have you eaten yet? I'm cooking right now, come eat with me here!"

"Looking for me? Is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

Li Ran led Jing Yuanzhi in.

After entering, the layout was very large, with several fruit trees planted in the yard, and a well in the corner, just like Jing Yuanzhi's family. Jing Yuanzhi took out the small bag of money and handed it to Li Ran: "Brother Li Ran, this is for you!"

Li Ran looked at the cloth bag in her hand: "What is this, Yinyin?"

"This is the money I earned from selling herbs. Last time, you helped me dig up so many herbs and also helped me prepare them. Here is one third of the money I earned from this sale. It's yours, Brother Li Ran."

Jing Yuanzhi said as he was about to hand the purse to Li Ran.

Li Ran took a step back and refused, "Don't give it to me, Yinyin. I'm helping you, not asking for your money. Take the money back. I don't want it."

"This money is what you deserve, Li Ran. Take it, Li Ran."

"No need to give it to me, Yinyin. If you do this, I won't dare to help you next time. Do we need to be so distant from each other?" Li Ran refused resolutely.

Jing Yuanzhi looked at him like this and took the money back: "Okay, then I'll treat you to a meal next time!"

"Yeah!" Li Ran smiled. This was much better than giving money.

"Yinyin, shall I take you around my house?"

"Okay!" Jing Yuanzhi also wanted to see what Li Ran's home looked like.

Li Ran's house is very big, almost the same size as the one they live in now, or even bigger.

Both the yard and the house were very clean, and things were neatly arranged, which was very comfortable to look at.

"Brother Li Ran, you are amazing! You cleaned it so cleanly by yourself!" Jing Yuanzhi exclaimed.

"I'm alone, so I just clean up when I have nothing to do. It's no big deal." Li Ran blushed a little when he was praised.

"Yinyin, I made some buns. They're still hot. Do you want to try some?" Li Ran took Jing Yuanzhi to the kitchen.

There were indeed plump white buns on the steamer, still warm.

Jing Yuanzhi felt embarrassed to eat his white bread, which was worth a lot of money.

"No need, Li Ran. I'll be able to eat when I get home later. You made it with great difficulty once, so you can keep it for yourself. I won't eat it."

Li Ran didn't give her a chance to refuse. He took one and stuffed it into Jing Yuanzhi's hand.

"Try it, I think it's pretty good."

Jing Yuanzhi looked at the bun in his hand and felt it would be inappropriate to put it back, so he had no choice but to eat it.

The buns are soft and fluffy, and the filling is pork and cabbage, and it is very fragrant!

As soon as she took a bite, she felt the filling inside. Jing Yuanzhi had never eaten a pure white flour bun with meat filling since she came to this world. She squinted her eyes as she took a bite.

This was the first time she thought meat buns were so delicious: "Brother Li Ran, you are such a great cook!"

Li Ran was happy to see her eating with relish.

"If you like it, take some back when you leave."

“No, no!” Jing Yuanzhi waved his hands quickly and swallowed the bun in his mouth.

"No, I can't take it away. I'm already very satisfied with just this one. I can't take it away."

"It's okay. I haven't eaten so many meals at your house. It's nothing." Li Ran said with a smile.

After saying this, he started wrapping dumplings with oil paper.

Jing Yuanzhi wanted to stop him, but the strength difference was too great and he couldn't stop him at all.

Li Ran knew that the girl wouldn't want too much, so he took one for each of them, and together with her own one, there were five buns in total.

He stuffed it into Jing Yuanzhi's hand and said, "Take it home and eat it. It's a small token of my appreciation."

"Okay, okay, thank you Brother Li Ran!" Jing Yuanzhi looked at the buns in his hand.

Li Ran sent her to the door of her house and watched her go in before going home.

Jing Yuanzhi originally went to give money, but instead of giving the money away, he took back five buns.

Looking at the five big buns in her hand, Jing Yuanzhi sighed. She had even eaten one, so there were six in total.
