Welcome to read Gu Zi's other works on Tomato Novel.
Yu Rujia goes to the Shangfen Brigade. Although conditions are limited, she has both the software and hardware.
Huddling in her ...
With a life saved by something that only requires a little effort and such a cheap medical fee, Huang Dazhuang had no reason not to support his wife's recovery first.
If Huang Dazhuang hadn't been rushed to work by Sun Qingqing in the morning, he would have stayed to wait for Rujia to come.
Yu Rujia: "Comrade Huang has to go to work this afternoon. I'm going to the mountain to collect some herbs. It won't take long, so I won't need Comrade Huang's help. It's just that I need Comrade Huang's help to deliver those furniture later."
Huang Dazhuang: "No trouble at all. I'll deliver it after work this afternoon and make sure it's placed properly for you."
After settling the children in, Yu Rujia carried a basket on her back and went up the mountain.
She was skilled and courageous. Once she entered the forest, she sped up and ran towards the mountains. With her internal strength, she could jump directly from the trees, reducing the trouble of clearing the way.
Few people visit the deep mountains, but there are plenty of good things there. After two hours of hard work, she not only filled her basket but also collected a lot of medicinal herbs and wild animals into her space.
Yu Rujia delivered the prepared medicine to Sun Qingqing's house: "Sister-in-law Dazhuang, you can use these medicines from now on. Use one dose every day, boil three bowls of water down to one bowl, and use it for about ten days."
"If you feel unwell later, come find me again."
Sun Qingqing happily put the medicine away and then took out six eggs and handed them to her: "Thank you, Yu Zhiqing. Take these eggs back and let Duofu and the others try them."
Yu Rujia: "Dazhuang's wife needs to nourish her body right now. You can keep the eggs for now. I have enough furniture."
Sun Qingqing: "We raise chickens at home, and they lay one or two eggs every day, so Yu Zhiqing doesn't have to worry about me not having enough eggs."
A family can raise two chickens. Sun Qingqing's family raises hens because they are the only source of nutrition and eggs can be used as hard currency here. Huang Xiaohua takes good care of the chickens and can pick up eggs every day.
Yu Rujia has no shortage of eggs. There are tens of thousands of eggs piled up in the space, and there are also live chickens raised in it, laying eggs at any time. Although she is not a saint, she is not so bad as to compete with patients for nutritional supplements.
Yu Rujia: "I won't take the eggs. Just give me a bucket later. The bucket is worth much more than the eggs. Don't be stingy, Sister-in-law Dazhuang. I'm taking the rest of them home first."
After returning home, Yu Rujia took out a five-jin crucian carp from the space and put it in the basin while the children were playing. The fish was too long, so its tail was left outside. The crackling sound attracted the little ones to come and take a look.
It is considered good if a normal crucian carp can grow to a kilogram in weight. This five-kilogram crucian carp is raised in a space with abundant spiritual energy. Not to mention a five-kilogram crucian carp, there is even a fifty-kilogram crucian carp.
There's no need to bring out such a big one. A five-pound crucian carp is enough for their family of five for one meal. They can bring out more when needed. There are no other adults at home, so as long as they don't perform the food-changing act in front of the children, it'll be fine.
Duofu was overjoyed to see the fish: "Fish, Auntie, shall we eat fish tonight?" Before the Xia family's misfortune, they often ate fish, and the precocious Duofu remembered what the fish looked like.
Yu Rujia: "Yes, do you like it?"
Duofu: "I like it."
Once, the brave warrior Doroo, who had been stealing wild grapes, secretly reached out to touch a fish when no one was looking. But as soon as he touched the fish, he was slapped by the tail. With a splash, his hand turned red, his mouth pursed, and tears welled up in his eyes.
With tears welling up in her eyes, Duolu held up her chubby little hand that had been hit: "Auntie, it hurts, Lulu, my hand hurts."
Yu Rujia picked up his little hand and checked it. The fish raised in the space were full of vitality. She hoped that it didn't break Duolu's hand bones.
Fortunately, his hand was only red, and his bones were fine.
After leading the group away from the kitchen, without Xia Jingrong present, Yu Rujia had to take on the responsibility of teaching them herself.
Yu Rujia patted the little warrior's head: "Silly boy, you can't just touch anything new in the future, okay? Otherwise, next time it might not just be your hand that hurts."
Duofu, the little adult, sighed inwardly at his younger brother's lack of understanding. Perhaps his expression was too obvious, because Duoshou, who was standing next to him, imitated him and even voiced Duofu's thoughts.
Duoshou: "Duolu is stupid, stupid."
Hearing this, Duolu, who was already feeling wronged, became even more aggrieved. Pearls kept falling from his eyes as he mumbled in defense of himself, "Duolu, I'm not stupid. It's the fish, the fish is bad. It hit, hit, Duolu."
Yu Rujia wiped away his tears: "Will you dare to touch me like that again next time?"
Duolu pouted and said, "I won't touch it, the fish is naughty."
Duolu is the most curious and lively of the three older children. He always wants to take a bite of new things he sees.
However, he has one redeeming quality: once he's tasted something and knows it's not good, he won't touch it again. That's how it was with the wild grapes; after that, he wouldn't touch them even when they were placed in front of him.
Yu Rujia: "That's right, don't touch it. You and your brother go outside and play for a while. Auntie will cook something delicious for you."
With the promise of delicious food, the children happily went out to see Duoxi, and while they were at it, they caught Duoxi, who was crawling around everywhere because no one was watching him, and brought him back to the mat.
Yu Rujia picked up the fish, stabbed it unconscious with a needle, removed the scales, gills and bones, mashed the fish into a fine paste, added some seasoning, and put it into the pot to steam.
The fish bones and fish heads still have some meat on them, so they are cooked into soup. The bones are filtered out with a net, leaving only the soup.
The children are all too young; even the oldest, Duofu, doesn't know how to remove fish bones. Without doing it this way, they can't eat fish.
Duolu, who had originally written the fish down in a small notebook and marked it as "not to be touched", took the fish out of the notebook after smelling the fragrance of the fish. He followed Duofu and Duoshou to wait at the kitchen door, drooling as he waited for the fish paste and fish soup to come out of the pot.
Yu Rujia fried some vegetables and served them with white rice, which was tonight's dinner.
Duolu and Duoshou ate fish for the first time. When they tasted the deliciousness of the fish paste, they waved the small spoon faster and faster, almost becoming afterimages. After Duofu's teaching and their own practice, they dropped much less food.
At first, the three-headed Duofu was able to eat his fish paste rice while keeping an eye on the twins, telling them to eat slowly, but unfortunately, no one listened to him.
Fortunately, the two ate fish puree instead of rice, so there was no need to worry about indigestion.
Duoxi ate fish puree separately tonight. He is too young and has just started eating complementary foods. His stomach is weak, so seasonings and other condiments are not suitable for him. He can only eat the original flavor of fish puree.
Even if the fish raised in the space were kept in their original state, they were still so fresh that he wanted to stick his tongue out.
If Yu Rujia slowed down a little, the little guy would keep urging her with "ah ah ah," looking so eager that he wanted to bury his head directly into the bowl of fish paste.
Little Duoxi secretly changed her favorite food from steamed eggs to fish paste.
