Farmhouse pretty cook

Chapter 10 The God-like Man
At night, there are frogs, crickets, and strange birds chirping in the bamboo forest.

birdsong?

Mu Xiang was already lying down, but when she heard the bird call, she immediately sat up and leaned against the window to listen softly.The strange cry was intermittent, but it could be heard very clearly.After a while, Mu Xiang lay down again.It seems that tomorrow they will have roast chicken and stewed pheasant with mushrooms. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water, but...there is no oil at home.

"Hey, where can I get the money?" Mu Xiang sighed helplessly towards the roof. It's hard for a smart woman to cook without rice, without materials, no matter how fragrant or delicious it is, it can't be cooked.After much deliberation, she still decided to go to the town early tomorrow morning. She is also a modern person, and a living person cannot be suffocated to death by urine.

The next morning, it was another sunny day.

Mu Xiang slept deeply last night, and slept until dawn, the sun was shining on the yard.Seeing that Mu Lang and Caiyun were still asleep, she quietly got up and got out of bed, combed her waist-length hair, opened the door and went out.

Because of the bamboo forest, the air in the morning is particularly fresh, with a faint fragrance of bamboo leaves, and the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the bamboo can be heard in the ear.

Standing under the eaves, Mu Xiang looked at the empty yard, feeling that something was missing.That's right, which farmhouse doesn't have chickens and ducks in the yard. I went to Grandma Wang's house yesterday and saw a few old hens cooing in her yard.Although it is almost autumn now, chicks cannot be caught, and no one raises chicks in autumn, but you can buy a few hens to raise them. Later, we will add a few ridges of cabbage and some corn. Then you can feed.Even if you don't eat chicken, it's good to raise some eggs to improve your diet.

Thinking that there are still many things to do, Mu Xiang stretched her arms and felt that her whole body was full of strength.The powerlessness I felt when I woke up yesterday morning is gone. There are too many things to worry about and more urgent things to solve. There is no time to think about it.

Today's breakfast is still corn mush, there's nothing I can do, apart from the cornmeal, there are only a few potatoes to eat. The mushrooms can be cooked, but there is no oil, so I can't cook them even if I want to.

Caiyun was awakened by the sound of Muxiang sweeping the floor. Through the window, she saw that her eldest sister had already sprinkled water in the yard a step ahead of her, and swept it carefully with a big broom.

This courtyard was originally a small courtyard of the Mu family, used to store things. Grandpa Mu Xiang was able to do it when he was young. The soil that fell inside was a foot thick.The previous Muxiang brought his younger siblings to live in, and was only busy making a living, but didn’t take care of it carefully. Caiyun was also busy with Mulang. It seems that it is not as broken as imagined.

In fact, Mu Xiang could also see that the house they lived in looked broken, as if it was about to fall down, but it didn't leak wind or rain. Although the house was darker, it wasn't like an ordinary adobe house. It was damp and wet.I don't know if the elders of the Mu family have spirits to bless them in the sky, or if there is God's will in the dark.When she has time, she must take her younger siblings to visit her mother and grandfather's grave. The living and the dead know, but her soul resides in Mu Xiang's body. Who knows when and where? I have to wear it back again!However, it is worthwhile to enjoy the life in another world before wearing it back.

Seeing Caiyun come out of the house, Mu Xiang called her over, "After breakfast later, I'll go to the market in the town, you watch Mu Lang at home, don't tell him to run around, just wait for me to come back .”

Caiyun worried: "Why are you going to the market? We have no money, so you don't want to find work again, do you?" In the past, Muxiang's only source of income was to help in the town, and Yuhe Village is not far from the town. It is far away, and it takes half an hour to walk, and it takes an hour to go back and forth, so many times, Mu Xiang always gets up before dawn, and can only go home when the moon comes out.As soon as he came back, he lay down on the kang so tired that he didn't even have the energy to eat, and Cai Yun felt distressed when he saw it.

Mu Xiang saw her sister's worry, smiled and shook her head, "I used to work like that, I was tired and couldn't make much money, so I'm going to find another way to make a living, don't worry, I'm not doing something bad, I just want to see it again Look, if you hurry, you will be back at noon."

"Oh, then be careful on the way, don't come back late," Caiyun didn't say anything else, the eldest sister used to go to the county town, and it was so close, she didn't think about other places.

After breakfast, the dishes and chopsticks were washed with colorful clouds.Mu Lang was still playing in the yard, and sometimes he could hear the voices of the village children playing outside, but he just leaned against the crack of the door, looked out a few times, and then closed the door.Seeing his lonely appearance, Mu Xiang felt distressed.When things get better in the future, Mu Lang must be let out for a walk.

Before going out, Mu Xiang went back to the hut, opened a crack in the wall and dug a few times, she kept the memory of Mu Xiang from before, remembering that Mu Xiang hid all the money in the family here, and it was she who went to the county to work as a helper The money I earned was actually not much in total, only a few tens of cash, which was only enough to buy a catty of pork.

Of course she didn't want to use the money to buy pork, she wasn't that greedy yet.Now that we have land at home, we must at least buy vegetable seeds first. Now is the season for planting radishes, as well as winter cured vegetables, green garlic, Chinese cabbage, and Chinese cabbage. It can be stored for winter consumption.The prices of these vegetables should not be too expensive, so she plans to buy more.Earlier, she asked Li Dashan for the piece of land that was closest to the broken thatched hut, on the edge of the bamboo forest. Later, she asked someone to plow the land out. It would not work for other types of land, but it would definitely succeed in growing radishes and Chinese cabbage.

To go to town, one had to walk from the village.

Mu Xiang touched the red pimple on her face, it seemed to be more serious than yesterday, such a face, if it doesn't scare people, it's not bad.

Although the sun just came out not long ago, the country people are hardworking. Someone went to the field with a hoe early in the morning. When they came back to have breakfast, they all saw Mu Xiang.

A woman was holding a child, standing at the door of her house, and was about to feed her. Seeing Mu Xiang's little face full of red bumps, she shouted at her in surprise: "Mu Xiang, what's wrong with your face? Why are there all red bumps?" She shouted loudly, and a young woman with thinning hair rushed out from the next door.

Mu Xiang smiled at her awkwardly, she remembered rushing to Li Dashan's house yesterday, she was the only woman who was holding the quilt, and Huang was also a kind-hearted woman, not necessarily because she had bad intentions, but simply because she was curious That's all.
