It is very tiring to prepare three meals a day during the busy farming season, but even so she would appear in the kitchen on time. However, it was impossible for her to cook.

She was responsible for supervising Chen Li, preventing her from secretly taking away food to feed that unlucky star and the two sickly people who were reincarnated from starvation.

By this time, she had already divided the food for the morning.

Two bowls of millet and two bowls of sorghum rice, a wicker basket filled with cornmeal steamed buns that had been steamed the previous night, and a large bowl of salted radish strips.

Chen Li took a look and saw a white flour steamed bun in the wicker basket, which stood out among the pile of corn flour steamed buns, like the moon surrounded by stars.

She knew that it was prepared for her second brother's second daughter, Shen Baozhi.

She is deeply loved by Old Lady Shen and is the apple of her eye.

When she thought of her two daughters, Chen Li's eyes became a little dim.

As if she had noticed her gaze, Old Lady Shen's face changed instantly, and she cursed angrily, "What are you looking at? You raised a jinx. If it weren't for my lucky girl Bao Zhibao, your whole family would be doomed..."

Chen Li didn't dare to talk back. She started to wash the rice and cook the porridge swiftly. She stirred it carefully a few times and put a wire cover on it. Then, she placed the steamed buns and corn bread in the wicker basket one by one.

Old Mrs. Shen snorted complacently.

Chen Li covered the big iron pot and started cutting pickles without stopping.

After cutting the pickles, she started to light the fire. After doing all this, she moved her lips a few times and whispered in protest, "Mom, Xiaoxi is not a jinx..."

Old Lady Shen's triangular eyes suddenly glared at Chen Li like a cobra. She rushed over and was about to slap Chen Li in the face as usual. But Shen Mingxi was hanging clothes. She was shocked and angry, and pointed at Old Lady Shen, "Stop it!"

The moment she shouted, she felt a sharp pain in her wrist, and then Mrs. Shen's hand began to tremble as if it had been electrocuted.

Shen Mingxi then rushed into the kitchen, pulled Chen Li over, and stared at Old Lady Shen with a cold gaze. A flash of surprise flashed through his heart. What happened to Old Lady Shen? But no matter what, the slap did not go down.

With all the things that happened in the past, it was as if their eldest wife's mind was controlled by someone.

Work hard and accept whatever comes your way.

She worked like a slave for this big family, but when she finally understood what was happening, her loved ones had left her one by one, and she was just trying to survive.

Now that she is back, she will naturally not let them bully her relatives anymore.

"Grandma, there are gods above us. Don't be too vicious, or you will be punished." Shen Mingxi's eyes were cold. "Also, the meal is ready. If you want to quarrel, I, the unlucky star, will take a leave of absence to accompany you to quarrel to your heart's content..."

"You!" Old Mrs. Shen still had her hand raised, unable to move as if she had a cramp. She wanted to curse, but for some reason, the words "there is a god above your head" made her heart skip a beat.

This unlucky person was the most undisciplined and sharp-tongued, always leaving her speechless.

However, she didn't resist when she called her a jinx, but when she scolded Chen Li, the dead girl would jump out and talk back.

Chen Li is such a lazy girl, but she gave birth to a daughter who is filial.

"Why don't you go wash your clothes!"

She scolded fiercely.

Then, slowly, I let go and felt much better.

Chen Li was lucky, because when she was about to hit her, her hand cramped. According to Bao Yatou, it might be due to calcium deficiency. She would go buy some big bones to supplement it.

Then, he glared at Shen Mingxi fiercely, snorted coldly, and turned away.

Shen Mingxi patted the back of Chen Li's hand and said, "Mom, I'll come and help you later."

After saying that, he left the kitchen.

She wrung out the clothes in the basin and hung them on the wire in the yard. Unexpectedly, she saw the birthmark of a small fish on her right wrist. It could not be seen unless you looked closely.

At this moment, a strange feeling arose in her heart.

An incredible thought suddenly came to my mind.

Could it be that... there is something magical about this little fish?

Shen Mingxi was stunned for a moment, staring at the little fish, but unfortunately, there was no reaction or abnormality, and he could not sense anything.

She thought, maybe it was her illusion or coincidence! At this time, the big pot in the kitchen was steaming, and the aroma of rice porridge came from it.

The Shen family’s breakfast is ready.

Old Mrs. Shen began to share the food. This was her favorite thing to do. She felt that this symbolized her supreme power in the Shen family.

Same as usual.

The dry part of the porridge was taken away by Old Lady Shen, while the eldest wife got the rice water which was so thin that you could see a person's reflection in it.

Next, Chen Li put half a pot of water in it, and added the rice bran that Old Lady Shen brought and the gray vegetables that had been cut and placed at the door last night. This was pig feed for the two pigs.

After the pot boiled, she took the thin rice porridge to the woodshed.

When she came back, she took the cornmeal steamed buns that Old Mrs. Shen had put in the basket viciously.

At Old Lady Shen's place, there is a large basket full of steamed bread and a large white flour steamed bun on top.

This is the breakfast for the second and third rooms, as well as her and Old Man Shen.

Chen Li took the basket of steamed bread and quickly left the kitchen.

Old Lady Shen watched her leave and looked at her right hand. At this time, her hand had returned to normal. She walked out with a gloomy face and stood in the yard, shouting angrily, "Everyone, get up. It's time to eat."

Then, noises were heard coming from various rooms in the main house.

The quiet little courtyard suddenly became lively.

Old Mrs. Shen went to the chicken coop and took out two eggs as usual. She felt much better and locked the eggs in the cupboard with a smile on her face before going out to wash her face.

At this time, Shen Mingxi was hanging clothes.

The noise from each room became louder, and people came out one after another to wash their faces in the west corner of the yard.

The sun finally broke through the clouds, and the world suddenly became bright.

Fifteen-year-old Shen Baozhi opened the window while yawning, but immediately saw her cousin Shen Mingxi hanging clothes to dry.

Shen Baozhi stopped moving.

Although she had been malnourished for a long time, Shen Mingxi's hair was still black and shiny. Facing her now, she could see her beautiful eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, a high nose bridge, petal-shaped lips, and a typical oval face.

She remembered that Shen Mingxi had started working in the fields at the age of ten. It had been six years now, but her skin was still fair, with a faint glow in the rising sun.

The only drawback is that it is too thin.

You can see the blood vessels on the back of your hands when you hang clothes.

Shen Baozhi's eyes flickered and she thought jealously, this heroine is really different. Even in such a bad day, she is still as beautiful as a winter jasmine.

That’s right, she is a time traveler.

The world she came to was actually a book.
