Chapter 26 Be careful



Yun Yan found a deserted place and entered the space. Looking at the supplies in front of her, she was thinking about what to take in exchange.

There was no space for sweet potatoes or potatoes, so I thought about it and made a decision.

Fifteen pounds of rice, ten pounds of flour and five pounds of cornmeal should be enough.

I carried my things in a backpack and went to the place the old man mentioned. When I walked in, I found it was a dilapidated bungalow.

When Yun Yan arrived at the door, she reached out and knocked on it. Three long and two short knocks were the agreed-upon code.

After a while, the old man opened the door. Yun Yan went in and found that the room was also in tatters. There was no furniture except a table and two stools.

After putting down the backpack, Yun Yan took out the things inside and let the old man look at them one by one.

When the old man saw what Yun Yan took out, he thought he was seeing things. After all, he had initially thought she would at most exchange some sweet potatoes or potatoes with him. Who knew she would actually take such precious food as rice and flour?

Yunyan would definitely feel helpless if she knew what the old man was thinking. She also wanted to give you sweet potatoes, but unfortunately she really didn't have any.

"Ahem, ahem, old man, is the delivery person here?"

Yunyan heard the sound coming from the room inside. She kept coughing and must be sick.

"Someone's here to deliver something. Just lie down and don't move. I'll be done soon."

After the old man finished speaking, he immediately took out the cloth bag and opened it in front of Yun Yan.

Yunyan took a look and found that nothing was missing. The old man picked up the things and handed them to Yunyan: "Everything is here, now they are yours."

After Yun Yan took the item, she asked, "Uncle, do you still have this old item? I can trade it with you for medicine."

Medicine! When the old man heard the woman in front of him say that she had medicine, he immediately grabbed her.

"Are you serious? Do you really have medicine?"

"Yes, but I don't know which one you want."

"Can you get some cold medicine? My wife has been sick for a long time and I really need it now."

"Okay, but you have to wait for me."

After going out, Yun Yan found a dilapidated house and walked in. After looking around and making sure that no one was there, she entered the space, found the medicine box, took out a box of cold medicine, removed all the outer packaging, leaving only the capsules, wrapped it in a piece of paper and left the space.

Yunyan returned to the old man's house and gave him the capsule wrapped in paper.

"Three times a day, two pills at a time. This is three days' supply."

After the old man took the medicine and opened it, he found that it was actually a capsule, but where was the capsule packaging?

The old man glanced at Yun Yan and said nothing. Yun Yan knew what the old man was worried about: "Don't worry, old man, this medicine is definitely effective. If you don't believe it, you can just withhold it and come back in three days."

After making an appointment with the old man to meet again in three days, Yun Yan left and left a bottle of medicine for the old man.

I looked at the time and it was almost twelve o'clock. I had already told Hu Zi and the others yesterday that I would deliver the loach in the afternoon, so there was no rush to go back.

After having lunch at the state-owned restaurant, Yun Yan went to the pharmacy to buy some medicinal herbs, and then rode her bicycle back to the Red Flag Brigade.

When I got back to the brigade, it was time to go to work, so I didn’t meet anyone else on the way.

After arriving home, I immediately took my backpack and went to the back mountain. Today’s task was not yet completed.

When they got to the mountain, they happened to meet Qian Qian again. They cut grass for pigs together. After handing in the grass and asking the scorer to record the work points, Qian Qian proposed to go to Yun Yan's place.

"What? You want to come to my place for a free meal again?" Yun Yan teased her with a smile.

"Yes, it's because the food you cook is so delicious and unforgettable."

"Then let's go, but I have to remind you that if you want to eat for free, you have to help with the work."

"Just do it. It's not like we haven't done it before."

The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked down the mountain and went to Yunyan's home together.

The two were processing loaches when they heard the voices of Hu Zi and others outside the door. Yun Yan knew that they were here to deliver the loaches.

After paying the bill for Hu Zi and the others, they left. Yun Yan sat down and continued to clean the loaches with Qian Qian.

"Yun Yan, why did that little girl leave her money with you?"

"Her name is Pan Di. Just by hearing her name, you can tell that her family favors boys over girls. If she takes the money home, do you think she can use it?"

"That little girl is really smart. She knows how to keep the money this way."

"Yun Yan, I don't know what you're going to do with all those loaches, but you'd better be careful."

After hearing Qian Qian's words, Yun Yan was suddenly stunned, but she quickly came to her senses: "Don't worry, I know my limits."

In the next two days, after Qian Qian finished cutting grass for the pigs, she came to help Yun Yan process the loaches and help her light the fire.

On the third day, Yunyan rode her bicycle to the county town early in the morning and went to the black market in disguise.

Not long after entering, she was surrounded by several old customers: "Sister, you are finally here. How many of those spicy eel slices did you bring today? I want to buy two more bags today."

"I want two packs too."

"And me, and me, leave three packs for me."

The last seventy-five bags of loaches and thirty-six bags of eel slices were sold out in less than an hour.

After leaving the black market, Yun Yan went to the old man’s house.

She knocked on the door, and it was just a few knocks as usual. After a while, the old man opened the door and let her in.

"My dear, the medicine you gave me is really effective. My husband got better after only taking it for two days."

"Really? Then congratulations, sir."

After exchanging a few words with the old man, he took out the reward for Yunyan, which was a sapphire necklace.

After taking the things, Yun Yan left and put a pound of brown sugar on the table before leaving.

Then he went to the pork shop and bought a set of pig intestines. This was the new dish he had promised Qian Qian, the foodie, to make for her.

First take the pig intestines to the river and wash them thoroughly with salt and flour.

After returning home, take out the cleaned pig intestines and put them in a pot, add cold water, ginger, green onion, rice wine, etc., boil the water, and then take them out after the intestines change color, take them to the well and wash them with water.

After cleaning the large intestine, take it back to the kitchen. After brushing the pot clean, pour a handful of intestines into the pot. First put a few rock sugars and then put dried chili peppers, grass fruit, fennel, cinnamon, ginger, star anise and other spices.

Cover the pot, bring to a boil over high heat for ten minutes, then simmer over low heat. Then boil twenty eggs in a small pot. When the pig intestines in the large pot are almost cooked, add the peeled eggs, add salt and simmer for another twenty minutes.

After an hour and a half, the braised pork intestines and braised eggs were ready. After Yun Yan lifted the lid of the pot, a fragrance hit her face, it was still the same smell. Then she put the braised pork intestines and braised eggs into the pot and let them soak for a while to make them more flavorful.

In order to go with the braised pork intestines, Yun Yan decided to make rice today. As soon as the rice was ready, Qian Qian and Hu Zi, two big foodies, came and knocked on the door.

"Sister Yun, what did you make? It smells so good! My mouth is watering." Hu Zi smelled the fragrance as soon as he entered the door.
