Chapter 102 Surprise (Update 1)

Jiang Zhiluo was extremely excited when she saw the pepper tree.

However, this pepper tree is close to the edge of a cliff, so you have to be careful when picking it.

As she approached the edge of the cliff, Jiang Zhiluo couldn't help but think of the night when she was picking herbs.

It was very dangerous at that time. Cui Hejin saved her despite his hand injury and carried her home.

When she thought about how he had taken care of her meticulously during these special days, her heart felt like boiling magma, warming her heart.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved.

Thinking of Cui Hejin, Jiang Zhiluo felt more powerful.

She looked carefully at her feet and began to pick peppercorns.

But after picking for a while, Jiang Zhiluo's expression changed. She seemed to have thought of something. She looked up at the tree and sighed, "If we can dig this tree into the space, will there always be peppercorns?"

Yes, this was what Jiang Zhiluo was thinking at the moment.

“Now that the space has been upgraded and the land is a bit larger, we should be able to transplant the tree.”

Moreover, the pepper tree is not big and does not take up much space.

Jiang Zhiluo thinks that Sichuan peppercorns are really an important seasoning. They are used when braising pork offal and when making chili meat sauce.

If you keep spending money on it, it will be very expensive.

Moreover, there are really not many peppercorns in the north. If the grocery store sells them, it will be difficult to buy them.

So the more Jiang Zhiluo thought about it, the more she felt that it would be most convenient to transplant the pepper tree into the space.

In this way, with the spiritual energy of the space and soil to nourish it, the peppercorns will continue to grow.

She can use it for free.

"Fortunately, this tree is not big, so it is easy to transplant."

Jiang Zhiluo did what she said and took out tools to dig out the tree roots.

After working for a long time, the roots of the tree were finally exposed.

Jiang Zhiluo breathed a sigh of relief and tried to pull the tree out, but she simply didn't have enough strength.

Her expression changed, and she condensed the wood-type supernatural power that she had accumulated during this period.

Then he used his wood-related abilities to pull the tree roots out of the ground and transplant them into space.

Jiang Zhiluo followed closely into the space and used her special powers to plant the chili tree next to the spiritual spring pond.

She planted peppers on half an acre of land in the space, and left some chives on a small piece of land to save chive seeds.

But I also planted some new chives, which I can keep for my own consumption after they grow longer.

Jiang Zhiluo felt a little tired after using some wood-related abilities. She sat by the pond and drank some spiritual spring water, which restored some of her strength.

After coming out of the space, Jiang Zhiluo continued to pick mushrooms.

If she couldn't fit it in the backpack, she would put it in the space.

With these mushrooms, you don’t need to buy mushrooms to make chili meat sauce.

"If we had chicken, we could make mushroom stewed chicken tonight."

Thinking about the chicken stewed with mushrooms, Jiang Zhiluo felt a little hungry.

Although the family has recently started a small business and their conditions have improved, they still dare not be extravagant.

The truth is that Old Madam Cui and Cui Hejin need to take medicine to maintain their health, and they haven't built a house yet, so they have a lot of money to spend.

So on weekdays she would just buy a pound or two of meat and put it into the dishes when cooking, which tasted a bit fishy.

Or I would occasionally buy some pork ribs and make some pork rib soup.

Buying a pound of ribs can make you stew for several meals.

But buying a chicken to eat costs dozens of coins.

There are two big old hens at home for laying eggs. They have hatched some chicks before, but they are still small and cannot be caught and eaten.

Jiang Zhiluo wandered around for a while but didn't find anything.

Seeing that it was getting late, I prepared to go home.

I never thought that I would actually find a pheasant on the way home.

The pheasant was eating in the grass.

The grass was quite tall, and if it weren't for her long feather tail trailing behind her, Jiang Zhiluo would have had a hard time finding her.

Jiang Zhiluo's expression changed, and she approached quietly, then took out a silver needle and stabbed it directly at the pheasant.

The pheasant was very alert. Sensing something, it flapped its wings and tried to fly, but Jiang Zhiluo's silver needle was faster and pierced the pheasant directly.

It struggled a few times and fell to the ground.

Jiang Zhiluo hurried over, grabbed the pheasant, and tied its two feet together with a rope to make it easier to carry.

When she was about to get up, she suddenly saw the snowberry in the grass.

"Snow red!"

Jiang Zhiluo was very surprised to see the snowberry.

"I didn't expect there would be snowberry here. I can make pickled mustard greens now."

Jiang Zhiluo remembered that both watercress and mustard greens could be made into pickled mustard greens.

"Pickled mustard greens can be used to make many delicious dishes, such as preserved vegetable braised pork and preserved vegetable pot cakes."

Speaking of preserved vegetable guokui, Jiang Zhiluo became excited, "We can continue to set up stalls and make guokui with various fillings."

"It's not easy to imitate a pot cake."

Jiang Zhiluo hurriedly picked a lot of snow mustard greens and planted some in the space.

After finishing her work, she put the snow mustard greens, shiitake mushrooms and other things in the space, and put the pheasant in the empty backpack, and carried the backpack home.

When we went down the mountain, it was evening. The sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the village, giving the whole village a moving halo.

Jiang Zhiluo also saw the land behind the village from afar, where so many people were busy building houses.

The foundation is being laid and the surrounding area has been fenced off.

Thinking that the house would be built soon and she could move into the big house, Jiang Zhiluo walked much more briskly.

When Jiang Zhiluo returned home, Cui Hejin had already returned.

Mrs. Cui heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her return. "I'm glad you're back. If you were any later, He Jin would have gone to the mountain to look for you."

Mrs. Cui had just returned from the back of the village and had just given the copper coins to the village head. Everyone was paid directly after they finished their work.

Jiang Zhiluo looked up at Cui Hejin who walked out of the house. For some reason, she felt a little guilty.

Because she promised him that she would have a good rest at home.

Jiang Zhiluo cared about Cui Hejin's thoughts, so she felt a little guilty.

She couldn't bear to make him worry or unhappy.

Cui Hejin came up to her and looked at her carefully. After making sure that she was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief. However, he still asked worriedly, "Are you injured?"

"No, I just wandered around the outskirts of the mountain this time and picked some mushrooms."

"I also caught a pheasant."

As she spoke, Jiang Zhiluo put down the backpack as if she was presenting a treasure, and took out a pheasant and a bunch of mushrooms and pickled vegetables from it.

Mrs. Cui was cleaning the table and stove at home.

Mrs. Cui loves cleanliness very much and cleans the house inside and out two or three times every day.

So although the courtyard is small and the rooms are small, the house is clean and comfortable to live in.

Mrs. Cui put down her work and ran to the yard. Seeing the pheasants and mushrooms, she became excited. "Zhiluo is really amazing. Pheasants are hard to find and catch."

You know, the villagers went to the foot of the mountain from time to time, but they couldn’t find a pheasant after so many times. If there were any pheasants earlier, they would have been caught by the villagers long ago.

Now there is not even a pheasant feather.

Jiang Zhiluo said embarrassedly: "I just discovered it by chance."

"Hey, what kind of dish is this?"

Mrs. Cui looked at the snow-white bell pepper and didn't recognize it. It felt a little strange to her.

But she knew that Zhiluo would not bring back some vegetables for no reason. Could it be that they were delicious foods like leeks?
