Xu Han quickly took out a thermometer from her spatial storage and was about to place it under Lu Chuan's arm when Lu Chuan woke up.
She asked softly, "What's wrong?" and immediately heard her own hoarse voice, and roughly guessed what was going on!
"You might have a fever. Let me take your temperature!"
38.5 degrees Celsius is alright! Lu Chuan also looks to be in good condition; there shouldn't be any major problems!
So he said, "Let me get you some porridge from my space first. Drink some first, and then I'll give you your medicine!"
After taking his medicine, Lu Chuan went back to sleep and slept until the afternoon. When he woke up again, it had stopped raining outside.
The fever has subsided, and there's no runny nose or cough anymore!
It must be said that Lu Chuan has always been in good physical condition and has almost never been sick.
This illness was probably due to the constant mental strain in the mountains, followed by continuous travel and getting caught in the rain, which caused me to suddenly fall ill!
But when he got sick, he recovered quickly. It was unclear whether Xu Han's medicine was effective or Lu Chuan's immune system was strong! In any case, Xu Han was incredibly envious…
In the evening, because she hadn't cooked for a long time, Xu Han decided to cook a big meal. She started working in the afternoon and didn't finish cooking a large table full of delicious food until evening.
There's pheasant soup, braised chicken with mushrooms, stir-fried wood ear mushrooms with chili peppers, cold purslane salad, steamed acacia flowers, braised mutton, stir-fried leeks with eggs, stir-fried wild amaranth, spicy rabbit meat, and today's main dish, spicy lamb trotters!
Each portion is more than enough; the extras can be put away to replenish the food we've been eating lately.
The staple food was still fragrant white rice.
Lu Chuan looked at the table full of food in front of him, which was even more lavish than the New Year's Eve dinner! It made his mouth water just looking at it.
After finishing dinner in silence, Lu Chuan began to tell Xu Han about his experiences on the mountain, which brought tears to Xu Han's eyes.
Lu Chuan quickly kissed away Xu Han's tears and said to her with heartache, "It's all my fault, I made you worry!"
A night of passion...
The next day, the two of them, unusually, did not get up early. They stayed in bed until the livestock outside kept barking, and only then did they get up!
The ground was still a bit damp today, not suitable for mushroom picking. Xu Han stayed home to do housework, while Lu Chuan went to deal with the tiger.
Prepare tiger penis, tiger bone, tiger skin, etc., and sell them separately later!
With this tiger, the family will have a large income.
After finishing everything, the two decided to go mushroom picking tomorrow!
For dinner, I made a simple beef noodle soup! I cooked it until it was thick and sticky, and it smelled amazing. Xu Han ate two bowls!
That evening, Lu Chuan was weaving bamboo baskets while watching the girl in front of him, telling her what she had been doing these past few days. Xu Han even took out the clothes she had made and proudly showed them off to Lu Chuan!
Lu Chuan also looked at Xu Han with a doting expression!
The next morning, the two finished breakfast early and went up the mountain together!
It's time for Xu Han's favorite mushroom picking time again. Without saying a word, she rolls up her sleeves and gets to work!
These past few days, I've been busy picking mushrooms and digging bamboo shoots, never stopping.
Before we knew it, it was already mid-April.
Lu Chuan returned that day after collecting the traps.
Xu Han suddenly asked, "I wonder if there are any wild fruits on the mountain now, like mulberries or something?"
“You want to eat some? I’ll take you to see them. I know there are mulberry trees there, and they should be ripe right now!” Lu Chuan replied.
The two were also action-oriented, and taking advantage of the early hour, they immediately shouldered their baskets and set off.
After walking for about half an hour, in a place Xu Han had never been before, she looked around curiously as she went. Since Lu Chuan was with her, she figured she wouldn't fall, so she paid even less attention to where she was going!
We've finally arrived at a mulberry grove! There are many mulberry trees of all sizes and shapes here!
The fruit on the tree is ripe, some black and some red, it's quite a sight!
Many small birds were enjoying their food when they saw the two approaching and flew away in fright!
Lu Chuan climbed up the tree and started picking the fruit. He broke off branches with lots of fruit and Xu Han would put them into her spatial storage!
After all, the fruits were too small to pick easily, and Lu Chuan's patience didn't allow him to pick them one by one. Xu Han kept laughing at him, but Lu Chuan wasn't annoyed. Instead, he happily let Xu Han tease him.
They picked fruit until sunset before heading home.
The next day, Lu Chuan brought Xu Han to the mulberry grove, leaving Heidian to accompany Xu Han while he took Hei Feng hunting!
Xu Han started picking mulberries by herself. It turned out that Lu Chuan had been picking mulberries all day yesterday and found it incredibly boring.
And the mulberries rotted if you used even a little force while picking them, which was so frustrating. So I'm just going on strike today.
Xu Han didn't insist. Everyone has their own strengths, and it would be too much to ask a big man who hunts and does physical labor every day to pick mulberries.
I'll have to pick them myself today, but thankfully I have Black Spot to keep me company. It's not boring at all!
They picked mulberries for another day, filling three large bamboo baskets. The mulberries were just too small to pick easily.
Xu Han plans to come back to pick mulberries when she has time. They're sweet and sour, and delicious!
It would be great to make mulberry wine or dry mulberries for tea.
At the same time as yesterday, Lu Chuan returned to the mulberry grove to pick up Xu Han and take her home!
The two walked home hand in hand, bathed in the setting sun!
Upon arriving home, Lu Chuan, as usual, prepared the game, while Xu Han went to the backyard and picked two fresh cucumbers.
This was the first time Xu Han had eaten vegetables from the backyard. She hadn't had cucumbers in a long time, so she was quite looking forward to it. She washed them and ate them right away. Crisp, sweet, and refreshing—definitely delicious!
There are many vegetables in the backyard that can be picked. Tomorrow I'll find some time to pick all the edible ones and make them into pickles or something!
I turned around and cut another bunch of chives. I plan to make a chive pancake tonight. I haven't had it in a long time and I really miss it!
First, clean and wash the chives, then wash some scallions. Chop them finely, add a few eggs and seasonings, and it's ready.
Roll out the pre-mixed dough into a thin sheet, pour the filling onto the dough sheet, and fold it from one side to the other.
When you fold it to the end, press the edges together to prevent the egg mixture inside from leaking out!
Make two more small ones using the same method. Steam them together in a pot until cooked, then they're ready to eat.
In no time, the chive pancakes were ready. Paired with delicious rice porridge, it made for a wonderful meal!
After dinner, Xu Han sat in the house and continued picking mulberry branches that she had previously placed in her space.
Lu Chuan continued weaving bamboo baskets and carrying baskets, as there was a high demand for both. The trash bags in Xu Han's space couldn't hold everything; they were prone to rotting.
