Chapter 23: Into the Mountains



Well, if they could plant this thing called sweet potato, wouldn't they never have to worry about famine again?

If it can be popularized, wouldn't the people of the Great Yan Dynasty be able to fill their stomachs?

But everyone also knows that the conditions are not right now, so they can only suppress their inner excitement and take things step by step in the future.

As for taro, it existed in this dynasty, but it was not called taro, but dunchi.

It can usually be dug up in deep mountains.

The whole family looked at the sumptuous breakfast today and felt extremely satisfied.

Little Shitou took a sip of the sweet potato porridge first, and the next second his eyes lit up instantly.

"Grandma, Mom, did you put sugar in the porridge today? It's sweet! It tastes good."

As he spoke, he picked up the bowl and gulped down a few big gulps.

Then he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sweet potato and started eating.

While eating, he answered his previous question: "I know, because this is sweet, sweet, sticky, and delicious!"

After eating the sweet sweet potatoes, Xiao Shitou chewed much faster.

He finished the sweet potato pieces in the bowl in just a few bites, as if he would not be able to eat them if he did not eat quickly.

Then he couldn't wait to take a steamed sweet potato and started eating it.

He knew that this thing called sweet potato was obtained by his sister from the immortal master.

Even though it doesn’t look good, I didn’t expect it to taste so delicious.

The porridge is soft and sticky, but the steamed one tastes dry and sweet.

Every way of cooking is delicious.

"I'm so happy! I wish I could eat sweet potatoes every day."

Little Stone shook his head happily.

Lin Ke smiled and put a piece of cold sweet potato leaves into his bowl with chopsticks.

"Don't just eat sweet potatoes. Eat more vegetables so you can grow taller. This is a sweet potato leaf. Try it and see if it tastes good."

If it were in the past, Little Stone would definitely not eat it, because he has hated eating green leaves the most since he was a child.

But he hadn't seen any green vegetables in the past six months. Xiao Shitou felt that the green and juicy sweet potato leaves today looked particularly tempting.

He couldn't help but take a bite. It didn't taste bitter like wild vegetables, but was crispy and a little sweet.

"Wow, sweet potato leaves are delicious too, not bitter at all, and sweet. I have decided that sweet potatoes and sweet potato leaves will be my favorite from now on."

"Hahaha, okay, I'll make sweet potatoes and sweet potato leaves for you every day from now on. We'll just have to eat some meat reluctantly and save the sweet potatoes for you."

Little Shitou's childish words made the whole family laugh, and Lin Heng wanted to tease him again.

"Meat is delicious too. Mom once said that you need to eat both meat and vegetables to grow taller. Daddy, you can't be picky."

"Hey, good boy, you're actually teaching your dad a lesson.

But your mother is right. You need to eat more meat, vegetables and rice so that you can grow tall and become smart.

You have suffered a lot during this period, but I will never let you go hungry again."

Lin Heng said this with emotion again and touched Xiao Shitou's head.

Zhong Xiu and Old Lady Jiang could also understand Lin Heng's feelings at this moment.

We must take good care of these two smart and well-behaved children and let them grow up well.

After reaching a consensus, everyone stopped being pretentious and started eating faster.

Even the little wolf cub Mengmeng ate two big sweet potatoes and a bun.

The following cold cucumber dish also brought great surprise to the family.

In such a hot day, eating a cucumber is so cool and refreshing, it is really a pleasure.

After the meal, everyone had a full stomach.

Lin Ke took out a few cherries as after-dinner fruit.

No one has ever eaten this fruit, but it tastes sour and sweet, and Xiao Shitou feels like he has tasted the flavor of happiness.

After dinner, the family started to work together.

Lin Heng fed the mule with the grass given by his daughter, and then went to his father-in-law's house to tell them what had happened in the past two days and discuss the next plan.

Lin Ke continued to lead everyone into the forest to practice, and to look for any meat to eat.

We now have grains, vegetables and fruits at home, but no meat.

Although she could buy it in the mall, she would have to find an excuse to take it out, which was very troublesome.

If all else fails, she can take out a few chickens from her space and pretend that they were caught in the mountains.

Those ten chicks had been outside for a few days, but in the space, dozens of days had passed and they were now able to lay eggs.

System Guobao puts the harvested eggs into the warehouse every day, and now there are quite a few eggs accumulated in the warehouse.

By the way, I forgot that the chicken coop has an automatic hatching function. It seems that I have to find time to buy a rooster and put it in today. Then the eggs it lays can be used to hatch chicks.

So Lin Ke walked while distracting himself by buying a rooster in the mall.

Then I felt something hit my calf.

Lin Ke looked down and saw, wow, isn’t this a pheasant?

What you think will come true.

So she manipulated the surrounding vines to tie up the pheasant.

Lin Ke bent down to pick up the pheasant and took a look. Although it was a little thin, it was better than nothing.

Lin Ke called his grandmother, mother and younger brother who were walking in front, and held up the tied pheasant for everyone to see.

When Little Shitou saw that his sister had actually shot a pheasant, he happily ran over with Mengmeng in his arms.

"Wow, sister, you are so good that you can even catch a pheasant. You are better than daddy. I want to be as good as you."

While praising his sister, Little Shitou was full of ambition and imagined himself becoming as great as his sister in the future.
