The man's clothes were old and washed white, and his slender figure was shrouded in the shadow of the bamboo forest.
His handsome features were filled with a soft light, and his deep eyes lit up slightly when he looked at her.
Both in appearance and temperament, he is more like a noble and wealthy kid in a costume drama.
But, he is the bandit leader in a bandit den? !
A sense of disharmony full of contradictions.
"Boss, are you here to dig bamboo worms too?"
Goudan's voice brought Ruyi out of her infatuated state, and her face turned slightly hot. Fortunately, she was relatively dark-skinned now, so it was not easy to tell that she was blushing.
He turned his back and picked up the bamboo shoots dug out from the ground.
Su Chengyi raised the corner of his mouth and squatted down in front of Ruyi, "Madam, do you want to eat bamboo shoots?"
God damn lady!
Ruyi paused and rolled her eyes at Su Chengyi.
Never mind, considering his looks, she didn't lose out.
They got about a dozen bamboo shoots and each took a few and went back.
There is no time to soak the bamboo shoots to remove the bitterness before eating them at noon.
Goudan helped to boil water. Ruyi rinsed the water several times before cutting it into strips and cooking it in boiling water.
When it was cooked, she tasted it. The bitterness was not as obvious, but she could still taste it.
There is definitely no cooking oil.
Preparing to eat it cold.
The bearded third in command walked into the kitchen, holding a hare in his hand.
Seeing Su Chengyi was there too, he called out "Big Brother".
Ruyi secretly glared at the third in command. She still remembered that a dirty and smelly cloth was stuffed in her mouth.
A smile flashed in Su Chengyi's eyes. As expected of him...he is narrow-minded.
There was a wild rabbit to eat, and Ruyi had already thought of how to stew the wild rabbit with bamboo shoots.
The third in command packed up the rabbit, Goudan started the fire, Ruyi cooked, and Su Chengyi took out half a bowl of fine salt.
Ruyi couldn't help but complain when she saw it. It was because they had some fine salt but were reluctant to give it to her.
Hearing this, Su Chengyi narrowed his eyes slightly, and his deep eyes seemed to darken a few shades.
When she added salt, as if it was free, the two adults and one child in the kitchen stared at her blankly.
"Sister, there's too much salt, what a waste..." Goudan said while swallowing his saliva.
"Sister?" Su Chengyi stared at Ruyi with a smile.
"What's wrong with calling me sister? I'm only eighteen years old..." Ruyi rolled her eyes at him.
Although, I was already thirty years old in my previous life, now I am a dozen years younger again, so what's wrong with calling me sister?
Thirty years old...
Su Chengyi's mouth twitched. This woman was actually three years older than him.
But fortunately it wasn't too serious, otherwise he wouldn't know what to do with her.
"It's better to add more salt to the rice. Otherwise, how can we divide a rabbit?"
Ruyi used a spatula to stir the pot. Most of the contents in the pot were white bamboo shoots. There were few pieces of rabbit meat stir-fried with the bamboo shoots.
In her previous life, when she was a child, her family was poor, and her grandmother would cook the dishes very salty so that she could eat less rice.
"That requires food..." the third in command muttered.
Ruyi didn't hear it. As the food was stir-fried, the aroma became more and more intense, and her stomach rumbled along with Goudan's.
At the end of the meal.
She and Su Chengyi shared half a bowl of rabbit meat and a bowl of pure bamboo shoots.
She also made a cold dish of bamboo shoots and simply added some salt.
The third in command distributed the rest to other families in the village.
The bamboo shoots are no longer so bitter. Everyone asked how she did it. It’s such a simple thing and Ruyi didn’t hide it.
only……
During the meal, Su Chengyi gave in to her and most of the rabbit meat went into her mouth.
However, the original owner hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and her body couldn't take it. In the afternoon, her stomach was rumbling and she had diarrhea.
Ruyi's face turned black.
The diarrhea pain is nothing, she has no paper!
Uh, the old fashioned way…leaves.
After all the trouble, she almost died of depression.
Paper!
She doesn't want to live without paper.
Wipe your ass...
She sat in the yard, feeling depressed, thinking about her paper and recalling how paper was made.
It is not difficult to make paper, but it is difficult to make paper that is soft and safe to use.
How does she sterilize in this day and age?
What you end up with is just paper that can be written on.
On the side, Su Chengyi listened silently. It was the first time he heard of paper.
The method of making paper is a secret method passed down through generations in the noble families of Tiannan Kingdom. How could she know how to make paper?
I also know how to process bitter salt blocks into fine salt.
What kind of world does she live in?
He was once again full of curiosity about Ruyi's world.
"Alas~"
Ruyi sighed softly. No matter how she managed to get the paper out, the workload during the semester was not something she could do alone.
Besides, she has only been here for two days, how can I believe what she said?
Looks like I have to find a way to integrate it first...
Su Chengyi was about to speak, but when he heard Ruyi's thoughts, he swallowed his words back.
Anyway, he is not in a hurry about the paper.
…
Night falls.
Ruyi was lying on her side inside, and heard Su Chengyi pushing the door open, and then his footsteps walked to the bed.
She was still a little nervous. Suddenly, Su Chengyi blew out the candle and lay down beside her with moisture in his body.
Wrapped in a strange scent, Ruyi touched her nose and thought: I didn't even see what kind of shower gel he used, why does he smell so good?
These two days she has been using pure natural soapberries to wash her hair and take a bath, and it’s the same as not washing at all.
Next to him, Su Chengyi's face turned red in the dark when he heard Ruyi's voice.
"Cough cough" an uncomfortable cough scared Ruyi.
Ruyi froze for a moment, staring at the faint moonlight through the window.
Can she really never go back?
