Xiao Lingyu came to the kitchen and the eldest brother was already there making a fire and boiling water.
"Boss, today mother will make you some white flour buns."
When Su Ning'an saw Xiao Lingyu enter the kitchen, his intuition told him that his mother would go into the kitchen to cook every day.
It's only a matter of time before it's discovered that he can eat.
"Mom, please go back to your room and sleep. I am your eldest son, so I should be the one to cook. In other families, it is the children who cook for the elders."
Xiao Lingyu turned his head and glanced at Su Ning'an, thinking: Don't lie to me.
If she didn't cook for the children, who knows what the villagers would say. She didn't care about the gossip of the villagers. After all, she was a mother and she still had to cook for the children.
"I'm your mother, so naturally I have to cook for you. Didn't we agree on this yesterday? You guys will be in charge of lighting the fire and cooking the rice, helping me out, and I'll just cook the dishes."
Suningan: Can I regret it now?
"Boss, go get some mushrooms from the backyard and clean the half of the rabbit meat we didn't eat yesterday. For breakfast today, we'll have steamed buns with white flour and rabbit meat stewed with mushrooms."
Xiao Lingyu had the aura of a superior, forcing Su Ningan to do as he was told.
"Okay, mother, I'll take care of it right away."
After Su Ning'an left, Xiao Lingyu used the fermented dough to make steamed buns. He first made twelve steamed buns, two large buns per person.
There was still a lot of dough in the dough bowl, and I wondered how much my father could eat. I made all of it at once, a total of 30 steamed buns.
The boss eats ten at a time, so these should be enough.
Xiao Lingyu then steamed the buns.
"Mom, wash and chop the mushrooms and half the rabbit meat."
"Okay, I'll make the soup."
Xiao Lingyu looked at the mushrooms and rabbit meat on the table. There were no green leafy vegetables, so he had to start planting the vegetable garden in the backyard quickly.
"Boss, how long has it been since you planted vegetables in the backyard? And where did the mushrooms in the backyard come from?"
Su Ningan, "Dad used to plant vegetables in the garden, but he hasn't planted any since he broke his leg. I go to the back mountain to dig mushrooms."
"So what delicious food do you usually make for your brothers and sisters?"
"I go to the back mountain to dig wild vegetables and mushrooms. Sometimes I catch pheasants and rabbits. I go to the river to catch fish. I eat whatever I can find in the back mountain every day."
“Do you gain anything every time you go up the mountain?”
Su Ning'an shook his head. "Pheasants and rabbits aren't often available, but Dad sometimes gives us copper coins and asks the village chief to go to the county to buy food for us."
No wonder the children are so thin. Not only are they malnourished, but they also have to eat one meal a day and go hungry the next.
"Boss, did the village chief help buy the rice, flour and coarse grains in the cupboard?"
"It was delivered to us by the officials the day before yesterday, along with that piece of cloth. It's the medical allowance granted to us by the imperial court. Oh, and the officials also brought us one ounce of silver."
This should be the minimum living allowance given by the imperial court to the four people of the Su family. "Has the imperial court been giving it to your father every year since he fell ill?"
Su Ning'an shook his head. "It was sent this year. It wasn't sent before. Mother, I've grown up a lot now. I can go hunting in Wufeng Mountain to earn money like father. I will bring you a lot of money."
Xiao Lingyu was a little touched and a little distressed that a seven-year-old child was already thinking about how to make money.
"Big brother, although you are stronger than mother, you cannot go to Wufeng Mountain alone. There are man-eating beasts there. Wait until you grow up. For now, just try your luck in the back mountains and dig some wild vegetables to eat. Earning money is mother's job. Take mother to the back mountains to dig some wild vegetables today."
Su Ningan nodded and said, "Okay."
"Boss, the kitchen is clear now, go check on your brothers."
After Su Ning'an left, Xiao Lingyu started stewing rabbit meat with mushrooms.
Eating meat and drinking soup early in the morning seems a bit of a luxury for the Su family.
I really want to eat some green vegetables. I wonder if I can bring some vegetables out from the base?
Xiao Lingyu looked down at her dress. This was the one she wore when she went in and out, and she was also wearing the underwear from the villa underneath. It seemed like she should be able to bring the vegetables out.
Xiao Lingyu came to the kitchen door and saw that there was no one in the yard. He hurriedly rubbed the birthmark on the palm of his hand.
A moment later, Xiao Lingyu appeared in the vegetable garden of the base and picked a cucumber.
Next is the moment to witness the miracle.
Xiao Lingyu held the cucumber in her hand and thought to herself, "I want to go back." Then she appeared in the kitchen with the cucumber.
Then Xiao Lingyu picked up the small bucket containing the two carps, and with a thought, he entered the base with the bucket. A moment later, he and the bucket appeared in the kitchen again.
Xiao Lingyu was shocked for a moment and then surprised. In the future, she would be able to drink mountain spring water, eat organic vegetables, and even exchange medicinal herbs from the base for silver!
However, she suddenly disappeared, reappeared suddenly, and took out food out of thin air, which made it easy for people to discover her.
Well, try to avoid people before going to the base to get food.
I looked at the cucumbers I brought out. It was hard to explain why there were cucumbers suddenly, so I ate them myself first.
"Children, come and eat."
Soon, the four children pushed Su Xingyi into the yard.
Su Ning'an swallowed his saliva when he saw a large bowl full of white flour buns and a large bowl of meat soup.
Xiao Lingyu stole a glance at Su Ning'an, picked up Xiao Xi'er and sat her down, "Let's all sit down and eat."
Xiao Lingyu stuffed a steamed bun into Su Xingyi's hand and gave him a bowl of meat soup.
"Drink the soup and eat the steamed buns first, then eat the meat and mushrooms in the bowl."
Su Xingyi nodded, drank the broth and ate the steamed buns, and finished the buns in a moment.
Xiao Lingyu stuffed another steamed bun into his mouth, and then five in a row, and filled the middle of the bowl with soup. Finally, he picked up the chopsticks that Xiao Lingyu handed to him and ate the rabbit meat and mushrooms in the bowl.
