For now, we'll use the oil we bought from the supply and marketing cooperative. We'll have to render the lard next time we go deep into the mountains.
Then I found a small bottle and poured some sesame oil from the jar into it, about half a bottle.
Anyway, just a few drops are enough each time you use it, and this half bottle will last a long time.
When she finally got to eat the noodles, Yunxi felt that all her hard work had finally paid off.
The cooked noodles were especially delicious, especially with the drizzle of sesame oil, and then...
I added some chopped green onions, and it smelled amazing.
After finishing the meal, they didn't even leave the soup behind.
Yunxi suddenly realized that she hadn't done enough and should have done more to prepare everything for lunch.
Then I regretted that I hadn't bought enough flour. In three or four days, the market would open, and I would definitely buy more to satisfy my appetite.
After breakfast, seeing that there was still some firewood in the stove, she simply washed the pot again, added some water, and since she usually stored hot water, she didn't need to waste the firewood.
After making breakfast, Yunxi noticed that the kitchen looked messy. Seeing that it was still early, she quickly tidied up.
After cleaning up the kitchen, I went straight to the yard and took out the drying mat and mushrooms that I had put away in the space yesterday.
After arranging everything, I also hung up the clothes that were in the hallway.
After wandering around for a while, he saw the large rocks behind the house, quickly put them into his spatial storage, and then dumped all the wood ash into the vegetable garden.
Once she was sure there was nothing else to do, Yunxi carried her basket on her back, picked up her sickle, and prepared to go cut pig feed.
The loudspeaker at the brigade headquarters outside had just sounded its second time, urging everyone to eat quickly and get ready to work. There would be a third sound, which would be to urge everyone to start taking attendance.
Yunxi felt that the brigade leader, Grandpa Yun Deguang, was really too dedicated. Every day he would get up early to go to the brigade headquarters to play the loudspeaker to urge everyone to get up. After everyone was at work, he would go back to have breakfast and then rush back to work.
It seems like no one is more tired than him, yet he earns about the same number of work points as everyone else. It just so happens that the town gives them a dollar or two in wages every month.
When Yunxi went up the mountain, she took a detour and went to the pig farm first, where she found Grandma Cheng cooking pig feed.
"Grandma Cheng, are you busy?"
When Grandma Cheng heard Yunxi's voice as she approached, she realized it was Yunxi calling her, and a smile immediately appeared on her face. "It's Yunxi! What's the matter?"
"Grandma Cheng, I'd like to ask Sixth Grandpa to make me a few shelves for storing things. Sixth Grandpa, do you have time?"
Upon hearing that Yunxi wanted to help, Grandma Cheng nodded in agreement without hesitation.
"Okay, anyway, your sixth grandfather doesn't have much to do at home, he just likes to tinker with his wood. I'll have him make it for you when I get back at noon. How big of a frame do you want?"
Yunxi's space is boundless in both height and size, so you can build shelves of any size. Things placed on them will remain stationary, and you don't have to worry about them falling down if you put them too high.
"Grandma Cheng, just tell Sixth Grandpa to make it bigger. Add a few more partitions in the middle. Whether it's three, four, or five partitions, I don't mind."
Grandma Cheng didn't ask Yunxi why she was making such a big display. She simply remembered her request and planned to tell her husband when she got back.
"Okay, I'll tell the old man at noon. How many do you want?"
"Make three, Grandma Cheng. How much is one?"
Yunxi originally wanted to make more, but she thought that if she made too many, they would be too conspicuous. If others found out and didn't see the shelves when they entered the house, wouldn't they find it strange?
It seems I have to learn how to do it myself. Once I do, I can make as many as I want. There's so much wood on the mountain, it's impossible to fill the space, but it's still possible to make a hundred or so shelves.
Grandma Cheng was unhappy when she heard Yunxi mention that she wanted money. She said it was just a few wooden frames, why would she need money?
Besides, Yunxi is the only girl in her family. If she doesn't offer to help, does she expect Yunxi to make money off her?
People would be spitting at her family, so she quickly shook her head and refused, "No need, why would I need money? Your sixth grandfather doesn't have anything to do at home anyway, he's just a few figures. Don't mention money, or I'll tell your sixth grandfather not to work for you anymore."
For the peach blossom fairy, she never wanted to owe anyone a favor, and she was also a vengeful demon. Even a wild boar that rubbed against her tree bark was eventually whipped to death by her.
She wouldn't do something like getting several shelves for free without paying anything.
"Grandma Cheng, if you don't want the money, then I won't take it. I can't take advantage of your family."
"Besides, Grandpa Liu has difficulty walking and went through a lot of trouble to fight. How can we not accept his money?"
Yunxi made it clear that if you don't accept the money, I won't take it, leaving Grandma Cheng with no choice.
He sighed and continued, "Okay, then just give me some money for the wood. Fifty cents a frame is enough. The frame will be built quickly, I'll get it done in three to five days."
As soon as Yunxi heard that it was five cents each, she knew that Grandma Cheng was being cheap. "Grandma Cheng, let's make it one yuan each. Let's not argue anymore. To be honest, one yuan for a big frame is already a bargain for me. If it's any cheaper, I won't take it."
Grandma Cheng knew that there was no point in arguing any further, so she agreed to Yunxi's suggestion.
"Alright, Grandma Cheng will listen to you. Yunxi, we're all relatives, so we can't be so polite in the future. It's normal to help each other out."
"Okay, I'll go cut some pig feed now. Grandma Cheng, you're busy."
Yunxi said goodbye to Grandma Chen and headed straight up the mountain. By this time, the work start horn had already sounded for the third time.
Yunxi didn't want to be with the other people gathering pig feed, so she went up the mountain a little faster, hoping to go to a place by herself and not be with the others.
Usually, it's a relatively remote place with little sunshine, so Yunxi specifically goes to those kinds of places.
After finding a place with plenty of pig feed, he directly controlled the vines to wrap around the sickle and cut the pig feed, while he pulled out the useful medicinal herbs that had reached the end of their lifespan.
