Chapter 42 Striving to Stay (1/2)



Chi Yu quickly replied, "Sister, I didn't underestimate them."

I figured these were all fresh vegetables, and if I asked my older brother for help, I should be able to manage.

Since you don't like it, then forget it.

Chi Qiao reached out and patted her head.

Facing his younger sister, who hadn't yet truly experienced the ups and downs of modern society, he spoke earnestly:

"I'm not saying you can't use these dishes; you can use them as you like."

For example, these bean sprouts, we sprouted them after we came back.

There are also scallions. Although they were taken from the space, we sprouted them in the wasteland of the space before we came back.

Now, seedlings have sprouted beside the heated kang (a traditional Chinese bed). We have something to show for it, so if we insist on explaining it, it's plausible.

These scallions are excellent for stir-frying bean sprouts or making omelets.

Chi Yu nodded in agreement and asked, "Sister, then there won't be enough vegetables!"

"How is that not enough? Cabbage, radish, bean sprouts, aren't these all vegetables?"

As for the soup, I reckon things will be busy outside for a while. I'll go see if anyone has chicken for sale.

Whether it's a wild pheasant or a domesticated one, I'll buy two and you can stew them with dried mushrooms.

Oh right, we have some dried salted fish in our fridge.

"Take out three large ribbonfish, wash them in hot water, remove the heads, tails, and intestines, then cut them into sections and pan-fry them."

Chi Yu nodded upon hearing this: "Okay, then go and come back quickly, sister. By the way, do you still have any silver? If not, I have some."

"Yes, don't worry. If we really need anything, we'll definitely ask you. We're like family, I won't stand on ceremony with you."

I'm going to buy chicken, and while I'm at it, I can also tell you that the general store is opening soon.

Without waiting for a reply, Chi Qiao left the kitchen.

But as soon as she stepped out of the kitchen, she turned back.

Seeing this, Chi Yu raised an eyebrow.

Chi Qiao went back into the kitchen and said in a low voice:

"Little Fish, I almost forgot, I came here to ask you for tung oil."

The oilcloth that Qin's younger brother brought was all cut too small, and your two nieces-in-law are sewing it right now.

With the rain so heavy outside, even if the stitches are sewn tightly, some water will inevitably seep through.

I want to take tung oil and brush a layer onto the sewn area.

I remember you bought some before and said you still had some left over?

Upon hearing this, Chi Yu gestured for her sister to stay in the kitchen while she went into her spatial dimension to search.

Fortunately, she knew exactly where she put her things, so she was out in just three minutes.

"Sister, this bucket hasn't been opened. But this packaging can't be used; you'll have to find something else to pack it in."

And this brush, um, it's what we use to brush on the seasonings when we eat barbecue.

But don't worry, sis, everything's been washed clean..."

As Chi Yu spoke, she shoved all the things into Chi Qiao's hands.

Chi Qiao opened the unopened tung oil container and poured half of it into a wooden basin.

"Keep the rest of this; I'll just take these and the brushes with me."

After saying that, she hurriedly left with her things.

After confirming that she had gone far away, Chi Yu looked at the vegetables that had already been washed and chopped.

Finally, they were all put back into the space.

At this moment, she felt somewhat fortunate that time had stood still in the room.

In this way, you don't have to worry about things getting damaged when you put them in.

When you want to eat it again, just take it out and stir-fry it directly.

As soon as Chi Qiao left, Qin Mu and the others had already moved the things.

Seeing this, she said, "Does Brother Qin want to rest for a while? You can let A-Ye and the others take care of setting up the tarpaulin shed."

"You guys, I'll take you to rest first. I'll call you when it's time to eat, okay?"

Qin Mu and the others were exhausted after driving for several days in such heavy rain.
