"Aunt Liang, I'll go back and wash up first."
She waved goodbye and walked back steadily with the bucket in her hand. She walked as if on flat ground, without even a drop of water spilling.
Looking at this scene, Aunt Liang was even more stunned.
Chu Ji is stronger than any man, right?
After returning to her residence, Chu Yuening first brought the bucket to the kitchen, cleaned the bronze tripod a little, poured the water into it, sat in front of the stove, and used a fire starter to light the firewood.
While she was lighting the fire, she looked at the layout of the kitchen.
There were some simple pottery jars and bowls, a pile of firewood, and several larger pottery jars in the corner filled with millet, sorghum, soybeans and other grains.
Alas, life is so hard for the people of Daqin!
Not only did they use tripods and even clay pots to cook, but the food they ate was also just millet and beans.
As for the iron skillet? Forget it!
The people of Daqin at that time had no idea of using iron pans to cook, and iron was basically used to make weapons, armor and farm tools.
The cooking methods are mostly simple boiling or roasting, and the only seasoning is coarse salt, and the poor people cannot even afford coarse salt.
Therefore, the food at this time is indeed simple and plain, and this is not just a modest statement.
It seems that the road to Daqin's infrastructure construction is long and arduous.
Chu Yuening sighed softly, feeling a sense of emotion.
At this time, the water in the cauldron began to boil.
She quickly scooped some hot water into the wooden barrel with a ladle, then took out a handful of corn and a sweet potato, washed them, cut the sweet potato into pieces, and put them into the pot together with the millet and slowly simmered them.
Just have a simple sweet potato millet porridge in the morning.
While cooking porridge, Chu Yuening went to the room to get a toothbrush and towel, and washed herself with warm water.
After I tidied myself up, the sweet potato porridge in the kitchen was almost ready, and waves of sweet and delicious aroma wafted over.
She filled a large bowl with golden porridge and brought it to the table in the room. Then she scooped a mouthful with a wooden spoon, blew gently and put it into her mouth.
The warm porridge slid into my mouth, and its sweet and soft taste instantly conquered my taste buds and soothed my stomach that had not eaten last night.
"This purple honey sweet potato really lives up to its reputation. It has an attractive color, is soft, sticky and sweet."
Chu Yuening couldn't help but envy the system.
The system cried inwardly, thinking that the host was so mean, knowing that it couldn't eat it but still greedily wanted it.
Just as Chu Yuening was concentrating on enjoying the delicious food, the people nearby smelled the sweet aroma and their stomachs rumbled like thunder.
But it’s only a little after seven o’clock, and it’s not time for breakfast yet, so I have to work first.
Damn, who's eating so early?!
The adults were full of resentment, and the children were drooling with envy.
Some of them would throw tantrums and cry non-stop, but their parents would not indulge them. Instead, they would just give them a meal of stir-fried bamboo shoots and meat, and they would immediately behave themselves.
As for the neighbors' resentment, Chu Yuening, the culprit, was completely unaware.
She enjoyed her breakfast happily, then took out some money from the secret compartment and put it in a sack. When everything was ready, she went out.
Next, she will take the first step in the construction of Daqin...
