Farming with Taobao

CHAPTER V FIRST STEP OF WELL LIFE (1)

Probably her luck today was pretty good, Li Yannian tried to open the system and indeed, he saw the costed icon. She quickly opened up the pointers and quickly typed in the keywords "student quilt". A dozen or so brand winter quilts instantly appeared on the page.

Most of the students were filled with chemical fiber cotton, so the price was much cheaper than the cotton. Furthermore, the covers were lighter and warmer than the cotton, just not as healthy as the natural cotton. Since they were heroes that would die for a single coin, Li Yannian couldn't care less.

Her eyes quickly scanned through the many items, and she conveniently ordered them according to the price. In an instant, she found the cheapest one.

Just as he was sighing to himself, he realized that he had taken a glance around. Luckily, with a tap of his mouse, the maximum price of two meters, four meters, and an extremely thick eight kilograms was only worth seventy-eight yuan. He immediately slapped his hands down, and just happened to be stuck there for a minute, causing Li Yannian, who almost wasted a chance, to break out in cold sweat.

However, he did not know how fast the delivery speed of the system was. As she was thinking, a bag of Heilongjiang rice grains and a big blanket appeared out of nowhere before her eyes.

"The transaction has been successful. You have received two favorable comments from the seller with a credit rating of 100%."

Just as the message from the Taobao waiter ended, before Li Yannian could open the bag, Black Bean and the Mao Dou brothers came in.

The final outcome was naturally the wide-eyed stare she had imagined. The two brothers' faces were filled with disbelief, and the room became extremely quiet for a moment.

After a while, Li Yannian still made the first move.

She first tore the white string sealing the rice bag. Seeing the white rice inside, she was unable to resist her impulse and grabbed it in her hand. A strange happiness surged in her heart. Lowering his head to take a whiff of the fragrant rice, Li Yannian then said to Black Bean and Mao Dou calmly, "Brother, go wash the wok and pour the water.

Mao Dou raised his head to look at his brother, then he looked at the colorful bag in her hand. He was extremely curious, but he didn't move.

Black Bean looked at her deeply, his eyes finally opening his mouth: "Ah, beans, listen to your sister, go burn them."

Li Yannian knew that he wasn't prepared to get to the bottom of this, although she didn't understand why Black Bean resisted his curiosity and didn't ask, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Mao Dou replied and obediently sat down under the stove to start a fire. Black Bean took the broken bowl and weighed the two bowls of rice in it, washed it carefully twice, and then carefully poured it into the pot. He carefully stayed by the stove and stirred it from time to time, as if he was afraid that the rice grains would stick to the bottom and rot.

Li Yannian had wanted to tell him not to look at the porridge like that, she just needed to stir it a few times after the water was boiled. But when she saw how the brothers were drooling and their eyes glued to the pot, she stopped talking.

This was a good start, much better than she had expected. Since this person held hope in this desperate situation, she would subconsciously ignore all sorts of unreasonable details. After they drank the rice porridge and remembered where the rice came from, it wouldn't be too late for her to explain.

Mao Dou set fire to the fire, and after a while, the water in the pot began to boil.

Black Bean became even more excited, the rice in the pot was already full of hot water, it became white and fat, releasing a rich fragrance of rice, the fragrance was so strong that it could even lure the gluttony in people's stomach out.

Even Li Yannian who was used to eating precious delicacies in her previous life was now salivating. If only she had known earlier, she would have let Black Bean eat two more bowls. Now that there was such a small pot, she did not know if there was enough for them to eat.

Turning her head to the side, she almost burst into laughter.

, who was usually calm and collected in front of his younger brother and sister, was swallowing his saliva soundlessly, his throat moving a little. Mao Dou, who was supposed to be in charge of lighting the fire, had already stopped what he was doing. He stood beside the pot while licking his lips.

No wonder they did.

He hadn't eaten a good meal in the past half year, not to mention the fact that he was only willing to eat some rice and flour during the new year. Now that the pot of rice porridge was boiling in the pot, the two brothers couldn't take it anymore.

This was just rice porridge with no taste at all … Thinking about it, Li Yannian became increasingly determined to lead this family of three out of poverty and into prosperity. She looked at the degree of swelling of the rice in the pot, it was obvious that it had been boiled until it was soft. She then told Black Bean and Mao Dou to put the fire out and bring the rice in a bowl.

Although Mao Dou had followed them for more than half a year, he still hadn't worn out his childish nature. He was so excited that he started jumping around while mumbling something incomprehensible from his mouth. While Li Yannian was eating the porridge, he was paying attention and almost laughed out loud.

The words that came out of Mao Dou's mouth were, "Thank you, thank you, bless you, thank you, bless you."

As expected, he was still a child. He thought that the reason for the food he was eating was due to his sincerity. The Bodhisattva's heart was kind as he heard his New Year's prayer.

Black Bean obviously heard it too, as his eyes met hers with a smile. His eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth that had been puckered up suddenly hooked up.

As usual, Li Yannian was the first to eat. Black Bean carefully blew the scalding hot porridge to cool before bringing it to her.

Li Yannian smiled at him: "Thank you brother, this porridge is so delicious."

Black Bean looked at her with a complicated gaze, but did not say a word.

Li Yannian did not think that much, the two of them were still waiting for the bowl to drink the porridge, and immediately gulped down the whole bowl of porridge. The rice grains had been cooked to a perfect degree, the bones were broken but the frame was not rotten. The rice grains were mellow and juicy, filling her throat with a fragrant taste. It was simply the most delicious rice porridge she had ever tasted in her life!

Black Bean took the bowl, filled it with fresh air and handed it over to Mao Dou, and after he finished drinking, he filled the bowl up to the stove, broke off three thin branches and lit them up, then raised the branch to the stove to kowtow three times.

Mao Dou looked at him strangely. "Brother, what are you doing?"

Black Bean's face did not have much of an expression as he turned around and said, "Give father and mother incense and let them taste the rice porridge as well."

Mao Dou and Li Yannian's faces immediately darkened. One of them was young, and was still worried about the days where they had parents and fathers. The other one was very thoughtful, and understood that Black Bean did not mention anything about offering incense to parents before.

In his eyes, the plain rice porridge without even a side dish was already an excellent thing that could let his parents feel at ease.

"Even though my parents' memorial tablets haven't been found in the main hall, and it's the same with the stove. Er Niu, Dou'er, come over and burn some incense for my parents as well. Say hello."

Li Yannian pulled Mao Dou over to pay her respects with piety. Black Bean stuck the branch on the stove, and only after the branch had been completely burnt off, did he start to drink the porridge slowly.

As he watched his brother eat the porridge, Mao Dou's stomach was so full that he couldn't even drink a single bit. He touched his belly and said happily, "Sis, this porridge is so delicious. When I have money in the future, I will cook porridge and drink it for you everyday."

Li Yannian patted his head, and laughed: "Dou'er is so obedient!"

Mao Dou was praised and shyly stepped aside. He touched his stomach and felt that he had eaten his fill. Even his body felt warm, so he could not help but squint his crescent eyes in satisfaction. Lying on the bed, he looked at Li Yannian and then at the bag of rice on the ground, and started chuckling.
