"Ah! Oh, okay, go quickly. If you're too tired, take a nap first. Don't overexert yourself. Your body is special; you can't get injured or overwork yourself."
Lin Yuxin snapped out of her daze, looked at him with concern, and said with care.
She had forgotten about Li Xiaochen's special condition. It was only because she was by his side that, during the recent period when they were on the road, she would give half of the water mixed with the fairy dew to Li Xiaochen.
Therefore, her health improved gradually and imperceptibly. However, she didn't know the extent of the improvement and dared not take any risks.
Li Xiaochen himself didn't realize that he hadn't collapsed from exhaustion despite being so busy lately, but he didn't think much of it.
He nodded in agreement:
"Alright, I'll remember that and be careful. I'll head back to my room now."
Go!
Lin Yuxin quickly stepped aside to let him go back to his room.
After Li Xiaochen left, Lin Yuxin went to the front hall, found a single-edged sword, and said:
"I will not go up the mountain today. Take out all the food I brought back yesterday and cook it for the people. You, I have a new task for you."
"Please speak, Princess."
He respectfully clasped his hands and asked, "Single-handed, I am asking you this question."
"Now that we've found a water source, we need to divert it. You take people and start working on water conservancy projects. Dig a dam at regular intervals along all the rivers near Fengshen Mountain to prevent water loss."
"Otherwise, the water will still flow away when it is brought down. Also, while digging, check the situation in the nearby river. If there is water, use this method to retain it. If not, then leave it alone for the time being."
"This task is entrusted to you. Also, call those officials over. Since they don't like planting trees, I, as an enlightened superior, will respect my opinion."
"Since they think planting trees isn't a good thing for the country and its people, let them dig river dams! That's a good thing for drought relief!"
Lin Yuxin watched as Dan Dao earnestly began to instruct him on important matters. When they first arrived, there weren't enough people to do this, and many rivers had already dried up and were basically dry. Digging river dams would be a waste of manpower.
Now that a new water source has been found, we must dig a dam to retain it.
However, after finishing her business, Lin Yuxin didn't forget to trick those adults a little.
"Yes, I will take care of it right away."
He accepted the order alone and went to carry it out.
Lin Yuxin got up and took Xueying directly to the kitchen in the backyard. She saw that everything she had brought back yesterday was there. The wild boar from yesterday had already been prepared by Chef Zhu, the cook from the government office.
The meat was placed in the basket, the bones were separated, and even the internal organs were not thrown away. Lin Yuxin was very satisfied; this Master Zhu was a capable worker.
Lin Yuxin then started working in the kitchen:
"Aunt Liu, wash all these wild vegetables, chop them finely, and cook them in the porridge. Master Zhu, today we're going to cook this wild boar. You can decide on the menu, just two meat dishes and one vegetable dish will do, just like the people outside do."
"Keep this large intestine for me, I have a use for it."
Lin Yuxin began assigning tasks one by one.
This was Master Zhu's first time meeting the princess, and he was a little nervous. Usually, it was Lord Zhao who came to give him instructions.
"Yes, Your Highness, this old servant will take care of it immediately."
Master Zhu immediately bowed and said, then turned around and skewered the large intestine and handed it to Lin Yuxin.
Lin Yuxin took it and walked back. She didn't dare let them get flour to wash the intestines. After all, food was scarce, and even a little bit of flour could save lives. There was no need to waste food for a bite to eat.
We didn't dare let them wash it with water, because washing large intestines requires a lot of water, which would be too wasteful.
So she decided to take the large intestine back to her space and wash it by the river behind the mountain.
Lin Yuxin carried the large intestine back to her room, leaving Xueying to wait at the door. Then she slipped into her spatial dimension, but before she had taken more than a few steps, Zhizhi rushed out and started squawking at her.
"Squeak squeak squeak?"
You filthy woman, where did you get this stinky thing? Hurry up and take it out of your spatial storage, you're so disgusting!
"This is delicious. I'll go wash it in the back hill and make it into something delicious. I guarantee you'll be drooling when you eat it."
Lin Yuxin waved the large intestine in front of Zhizhi and said proudly.
"Squeak!"
You're kidding me! This thing is supposed to be delicious? I don't care, you have to take it out.
"Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Don't forget, even though you came here before me, I am the master of this space. I have the right to dispose of my own things. I'm going to the back mountain to wash my intestines."
Lin Yuxin stood her ground and spoke with righteous indignation.
"Squeak, squeak!"
You're really going to drive me crazy! I'm not talking to you anymore! Humph!
Squeaky got so angry that it disappeared in a flash.
Lin Yuxin ignored it, probably hiding somewhere sulking again.
Once she finished washing Feifei, it wouldn't smell anymore. Lin Yuxin headed straight for the back mountain.
When she arrived at the river, she didn't go upstream, but stood directly downstream. The cleaned wastewater could flow directly to the medicinal herb fields and farmland at the foot of the mountain, serving as organic fertilizer.
Lin Yuxin washed the pig intestines seven or eight times before finally finishing.
She almost couldn't straighten her back when she stood up; she had been squatting for too long.
It took her a while to recover. She didn't linger and went straight down the mountain, but she didn't see Zhizhi. She guessed Zhizhi was still angry!
She went straight out of the space, went to the kitchen, handed the pork intestines to Chef Zhu, and taught him how to make stir-fried pork intestines, liver, kidneys, and stir-fry.
There's nothing she can do about it; she just doesn't like eating pure meat, she prefers eating offal.
Before, when I first entered the Bai family mansion, I ate whatever was available, just in case I caused trouble for my mother.
