A balanced diet of meat and vegetables.

Old Zheng stared at Gu Yunyang for a long while before finally uttering, "If you're going to treat me to meat, I'll eat all meat. I don't need rice."

Gu Yunyang: ...

He forgot that people at this age usually have little fat in their stomachs.

If you bring them a few pounds of meat, they'll eat it all up.

I was careless.

However, he still insisted, "But a balanced diet of meat and vegetables is indeed more nutritious."

After saying that, he got up as if nothing had happened and walked outside: "The work is done, I'll go back and cook now."

Old Zheng chuckled several times before replying, "Don't bring me anything tonight."

He was genuinely afraid that the kid would bring him food again.

Even landlords wouldn't dare eat like that.

Gu Yunyang waved his hand and left.

A little while later, Old Zheng was still cleaning the cowshed when he came over to check on it.

I noticed that the cow is actually in better condition than yesterday.

Although I didn't see any difference in build, that kind of muscle doesn't grow overnight.

But this ox is definitely more spirited.

"This kid actually has some skills."

Gu Hanping inquired further about the cattle from Old Zheng and learned that Gu Yunyang had mixed hay, soybeans, and straw with rice bran. He wasn't entirely sure of the exact amounts, but the main ingredients were hay and rice bran.

Upon learning about the concept of a balanced diet of meat and vegetables, Gu Hanping remained silent for quite some time.

If there is meat to eat, he doesn't need to eat vegetables.

When Gu Yunyang came back, he cut the pumpkin into chunks, found some mushrooms and diced them, and shredded the leftover lettuce from the lunch stir-fry. After stir-frying, he put the shredded lettuce into the rice and cooked a pot of rice.

I stir-fried some bok choy, smashed some cucumber, added a little sugar, and made a cucumber salad.

That's all for tonight.

He dared not take out any more meat; the piece of pork belly he bought yesterday under the pretext was all eaten at lunchtime.

Han Xue was no longer in the mood to complain, and besides, the pumpkin and mushroom rice tasted pretty good.

Yang Shengnan glanced at Gu Yunyang and thought to herself, "Isn't it delicious? They even added a spoonful of lard, right? What other family dares to be so extravagant with their braised rice?"

Gu Yunyang remained silent.

After finishing her meal, Yang Shengnan, despite being very tired, still insisted on washing the dishes, chopsticks, and pot.

Although Han Xue was tired, she helped with the tidying up.

Gu Yunyang thought about it and did not refuse.

Strictly speaking, the three of them met on the train.

They weren't really close friends.

We should still maintain some distance from each other.

Today, Yang Shengnan forced herself to light a fire and boil water for a bath.

The temperature inside this basin is indeed a bit colder than outside.

In addition, the well water in the yard is a bit cold, so you really can't take a bath without boiling it.

Other villagers don't bathe every day; at most, they just wipe themselves with water.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Yang Shengnan managed to persevere and seemed to be adapting quite well.

Although he wasn't as efficient as the villagers, he still impressed them.

After all, everyone saw what the child was like at the beginning.

Han Xue was far inferior; her physical strength was simply not as good as Yang Shengnan's.

In addition, she was spoiled since childhood and, unlike Yang Shengnan, had also undergone military training.

I'm so tired every day that I cry.

The people of Dongshan Village all joked that she was indeed made of water.

Although Han Xue was so tired that she cried, she persevered and did not quit or slack off.

Although she worked slower and less than Yang Shengnan.

However, the people of Dongshan Village did not blame her.
