Chapter 24



[System, sign in.]

[Ding - Signed in successfully on the 97th day of fleeing famine, received sign-in rewards: three pounds of rice, two rice dumplings, and a bag of popcorn kernels. The rewards have been put into the system space. ]

Today's breakfast, in addition to vegetable porridge and boiled eggs, also includes two large meat dumplings.

Zongzi is made of glutinous rice, which is difficult to digest, so Su Qingyun and Xiaotuanzi could only eat one piece each.

The rest went into Lu Changge's stomach.

After breakfast, Su Qingyun called her husband back to the room and took out a ruler to measure his size.

After measuring, Su Qingyun compared the previous sizes and found that her husband's chest circumference and clothing length had changed again.

Su Qingyun secretly glanced at her husband's muscular chest and muttered to herself.

They eat the same food, so why do he and my husband gain weight in different places?

Lu Changge put on his shirt and saw that his wife was staring at him, or more precisely, at his chest. He asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, go out, I need to make clothes!"

Lu Changge, who was pushed out by his wife, was a little confused.

Not long after, Su Qingyun took out the things and sat under the grape vines, watching the father and son working on them.

Now that it is September, the number of locusts has gradually decreased, and there are only a few left on the trees in the yard.

The ewe at home stopped producing milk a few days ago, so she has to be slaughtered today.

After a few days, I had to go to the town to buy another lactating ewe.

However, before slaughtering the sheep, Lu Changge first made the popcorn that he had received from signing in today.

Seeing daddy washing the pot, little Dumpling went over curiously.

"Daddy, what are you doing?"

"Wash the pot."

"And then pinch?"

"Then make something delicious." After washing the pot, Lu Changge took it into the kitchen.

Hearing that something delicious was ready, the little girl followed happily.

"What's the good thing?"

[I know, I know! The master wants to make popcorn!] Er Teng, who was on top of the little master, spoke up.

"Popcorn hair? What is that?"

[It’s a delicious and fun thing! It makes a banging sound…]

"Really?"

Xiaotuanzi and Erteng were chatting about popcorn, while Lu Changge had already started a fire and heated the pot.

After the pot was heated, Lu Changge discovered that he seemed to have no idea how to make popcorn.

Lu Changge: “…”

[System, how do you make popcorn?]

How to make popcorn?

How does it know this? It has never eaten it.

The system quickly flipped a book out from the corner, found the page about popcorn, and read, "Pour oil into the hot pan, pour the popcorn in and stir-fry..."

Heat the pan and pour oil...

Lu Changge put a few more pieces of firewood into the stove and felt the temperature of the pot. Only when it was hot enough did he pour the oil in.

Then take out the popcorn, tear open the bag and pour it in.

[Stop, stop, stop! Half of it is enough. Host, how can you pour it all?!]

Upon hearing this, Lu Changge paused and put away the empty bag in his hand.

Seeing that the oil was a little low, I poured some more oil in.

[Do you need to add sugar?] Lu Changge asked.

Lu Changge had never eaten popcorn, but he had heard his teammates talk about sweet popcorn when they were gossiping.

[Put it aside...] Looking at the half-torn instruction manual, the system was a little uncertain.

Hearing this, Lu Changge poured another half can of sugar into the pot.

The sugar was obtained from signing in previously, and half of it has been used.

After pouring the sugar, start stir-frying.

When the popcorn and oil came into contact, a sizzling sound was made.

The little girl at the side heard it and looked at it eagerly.

After stir-frying for a while, the sugar melts and bubbles begin to form in the pot.

"Pop!" A kernel of corn suddenly exploded and jumped out of the pot.

This sudden accident left Lu Changge confused for a moment.

It was... quite sudden.

After the first one exploded, the rest began to explode one after another.

Seeing the little ball jumping out of the pot, Xiaotuanzi exclaimed "Wow", ran over, squatted down and picked it up.

"Tuanzi, you can't eat what falls on the ground." Lu Changge reminded.

"But... a lot of balls fell off."

Su Qingyun, who was making clothes in the yard, suddenly heard a "pop" sound coming from the kitchen, followed by a series of crackling sounds.

Su Qingyun put down the cloth in his hand, stood up and walked over.

"My husband, what's wrong?"

When she reached the kitchen door, Su Qingyun was forced to stop.

Looking at the yellow balls scattered all over the kitchen floor and the iron pot full of them, Su Qingyun opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Mom, these popcorns are so good!" The little dumpling turned around, holding a few big round popcorns in his hands, and said while eating.

"Husband, what are you doing?"

"Making popcorn." Lu Changge stood in the popcorn field with a spatula in his hand and said innocently.

"Then how did they fall to the ground?"

"I know, it was the sugar ball that jumped out of the pot by itself!" Little Dumpling answered quickly.

"Yes." Lu Changge nodded.

"Then can't you just cover the pot?" Su Qingyun was puzzled.

“…I forgot.”

“…”

Finally, the popcorn that fell on the ground was swept up by Lu Changge and fed to the chickens.

The food in the pot was divided into two parts: one bowl for the dumplings, a big bowl for his wife and him, and the rest was stored in a storage container.

Sitting under the grape vines and eating popcorn with his wife, Lu Changge suddenly felt that he seemed to understand what his teammates once meant by happiness.

After eating a little with his wife, Lu Changge continued with today's work.

The scene of slaughtering sheep is too bloody and the taste is not good.

Lu Changge led the sheep outside and carried out two buckets of water.

"Daddy, where are you going?" Little Tuanzi followed him, holding a paper bag of popcorn in his hand.

"Daddy is outside, don't follow me."

Lu Changge turned around and saw Tuanzi following him, and spoke.

"Why?" The little dumpling looked up and put a piece of popcorn in his mouth.

"Daddy has something to do, Tuanzi and Nido stay in the yard and play for a while."

Lu Changge said this and gave Er Teng a look.

Receiving the master's eye signal, Er Teng quickly attracted the little master's attention.

[Come here, little master! I made a swing for you! There are beautiful little flowers and sweet little grapes on it!]

Since the lady has entered the house, Er Teng can let go for a while.

Er Teng made a swing on a branch of the date tree, with a hollow basket at the bottom made of vines.

The intertwined vines are dotted with small white flowers.

There are also a few bunches of small grapes sponsored by Da Teng, each of which is as small as a sugar bean.

Little Tuanzi took a look and fell in love with it at first sight.

"Wow! What a delicious brew!"

Little Tuanzi decisively abandoned his father and threw himself into Er Teng's arms.

Seeing that Tuanzi's attention was successfully diverted, Lu Changge hurried out with the tools.

It takes time and effort to slaughter a sheep alone.

Lu Changge pressed the sheep to the ground, tied up its legs, and prepared to bleed it.

After bleeding, the next step is to skin the sheep.

"Land Hunter, what are you doing?"

A strange voice was heard. Lu Changge looked up, then lowered his head to continue peeling the sheepskin.

"Um."

The people who came were a group of middle-aged ladies carrying vegetable baskets. Lu Changge had never seen them before.

To be precise, he only recognized a few people in the village.

Coincidentally, among the ladies who came, there was one whom Lu Changge was familiar with.

Mrs. Lin, the midwife who delivered his daughter-in-law.

Seeing that Lu Orion had a cold look on his face, one of the ladies nudged Mrs. Lin with her elbow.

Motioned for her to say a few words.

"Um... Lu Hunter, your husband will give birth in a few months, right?" Mrs. Lin hesitated for a moment, but still spoke.

"Well, four months. I'll have to trouble Auntie Lin to come over then."

Lu Changge has always been concerned about his daughter-in-law.

Even if Mrs. Lin didn't come today, he would find time to go over and say hello to her.

"No trouble, no trouble!" Mrs. Lin waved her hands.

Mrs. Lin was somewhat flattered by the politeness of the hunter.

"That is... Land Hunter, do you have any extra food at home?"

"Auntie Lin, you can just speak frankly." Lu Changge threw the peeled sheepskin into the basin and looked up.

Just then, a few drops of blood splashed on his face. Lu Changge raised his head with an expressionless face.

Several ladies were frightened and took a step back.

Inside the house, Su Qingyun finished sewing the last stitch, tied a knot and cut the thread.

He stood up, lifted his trousers and shook them, and the second pair of underpants was sewn.

There is also a sewn lining next to it.

In the yard

The little boy was nestling in the swing basket. After eating some popcorn, he went to pick up some sugar beans and grapes next to him.

The swing he was sitting on was moving by itself without any wind.

The little dumpling couldn't help but eat the jelly bean-sized grapes, and they were quickly eaten up by him.

"No more..."

[It's over, little master. How about we try something exciting?] Er Teng suggested.

"Is it fun?" Little Dumpling asked curiously.

[That is a must!]

"Okay!" Hearing that it was fun, the little dumpling immediately agreed.

[Then hold on to me, little master.]

As Er Teng spoke, he stretched out a thick vine from the side of the cradle and stretched it across in front of the little dumpling.

The little girl dropped the bag in her hand, grabbed the cane in front of her with both hands, and said excitedly, "Hold it!"

[Ok! Now let’s take off!]

Before Er Teng finished his words, the swing swung high.

"Ah...hahaha!" The wind blew the little bun's hair back, revealing his sparkling eyes.

"Two, two! Fly higher!!"

The little dumpling grabbed Er Teng tightly and shouted excitedly.

[Okay! Fly higher!]

As Er Teng said this, the cradle swing swung to its highest point again.

Of course, it also did not forget to stretch out a few thin vines to fix the little master tightly in the cradle.

The little girl was so excited that she forgot to lower the volume.

Er Teng, who was also having so much fun, didn't even remember the incident.

At this moment, there was a "creaky" sound, and the door of the main house opened from the inside.

The author has something to say:

Modify the words.
