Chapter 84 Open Fire Yourself



"Well, today's harvest is good, let's go." Yun Siying was not afraid at all. As long as she used her mental power, the night was no different from the day in her eyes, but she still obediently went up the mountain with him.

Nangong Ruochen wants to say that your harvest today is indeed not bad, but a lot. If you sell all the ginseng you dug, you can get at least 10,000 yuan. The current monthly salary of workers is generally 30 or 40 yuan. A worker needs to work for two years to earn so much money.

If the villagers knew that you made so much money just by going up the mountain, they would be jealous of you. Some courageous villagers will definitely go deep into the mountains, and then you don’t know what will happen.

Back at the Youth League Home, Siying used a winnowing basket to dry the mushrooms she had picked in the yard, took out three wild ducks and put them in a wooden basin, and put twenty-six wild duck eggs in a bamboo basket. She prepared to light a fire and cook. This was her first time cooking in her own home. Although it was a rented room, at least she had her own home.

"Nangong Ruochen, thank you for taking care of me during this period. You don't have to cook dinner, I'll treat you tonight." Yun Siying said generously to Nangong Ruochen, who was still drying mushrooms in the yard. She was now an invisible rich woman and could afford to treat him.

"Okay, wait for Han Yuecheng and the others to come, then I'll let them come over." Nangong Ruochen suddenly got used to it. During the autumn harvest, every day when he worked, he would see Siying busy in her room, and he felt like his wife was waiting for him to come home.

Watching Yun Siying prepare to deal with the three wild ducks, 놛 quickly dried the mushrooms in the backpack. Walking into Yun Siying's room: "Leave this duck to me."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you." The two began to get busy.

Guo Dongming and Wang Panpan each carried a basket of mountain products into the yard, and saw Nangong Ruochen processing wild ducks by the well. They asked enviously, "Where did you get the wild ducks?"

"In the mountains." Nangong Ruochen didn't even raise his head and continued to be busy with the things in the house.

"You guys are so lucky, why didn't we meet one? Nangong Zhiqing, can you give us another one?" Guo Dongming wanted to nourish Wang Panpan's body, but unfortunately neither of them had a meat ticket.

Yun Siying, who was in the room, heard the conversation between the two. She stuck her head out of the door and said with a smile, "Okay! Guo Zhiqing, pick one for yourselves."

"Thank you, Yun Zhiqing. How much money do you think is appropriate for us to give you?" Wang Panpan asked happily. She hadn't eaten meat for a long time. It was only before the autumn harvest that she ate wild boar meat, but she only had two bites.

“Just give me three yuan!” This wild duck weighs about four pounds, and the price is expensive. On the black market, a wild duck would cost at least three yuan and a half.

“Brother Dongming, go pick the wild ducks. I’ll go into the house to get the money.” Wang Panpan was afraid that Yun Siying would regret it, so she quickly gave Yun Siying three yuan and a pecan nut.

"Yun Zhiqing, the mushrooms drying in the yard are so fresh. Did you pick them today?" Wang looked at the mushrooms in the large winnowing baskets with envy.

"Well, I think you and your wife have made a good harvest today. Two large backpacks are full of mountain products." Yun Siying said with a smile.

"Well, I count on these few days every year, and I want to store more food to get through the winter." After the two chatted for a while, Wang Panpan went back to cook dinner. Guo Dongming was also a smart guy. He helped Wang Panpan with her meals. The atmosphere seemed very harmonious.

Yun Siying watched Nangong Ruochen chop the wild duck into small pieces, and ordered him habitually: "Nangong Ruochen, get some ginger and garlic, I will need them later... wash some vegetables..." Nangong Ruochen nodded but was not happy, but the corners of his mouth raised a little.

With the cooperation of Nangong Ruochen, Yun Siying made a wild duck into a spicy hot pot, stewed the other wild duck, and cooked a vegetable.

When Han Yuecheng and Chen Banghua came back, they smelled the aroma of meat and their eyes lit up. Since Yun Siying came, they often ate meat, and it tasted better than that cooked in state-owned restaurants. The villagers and other educated youth did not appear to have lost weight after the autumn harvest, but the four of us seemed to have gained weight.

When he saw that Nangong's door was closed, he felt lost for a moment. When his sight moved to Yun Siying's room, he saw the two familiar figures, his eyes lit up, and they quickly walked out of the room.

Han Yuecheng asked: "Siying, what delicious food are you going to make today?"

"I'm going to make two new dishes today, spicy wild duck in hot pot and wild duck soup. I guarantee you'll want more after you try them. Come in and eat."

“It’s spicy and fresh, the meat is tender and smooth, and it leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth. It’s really delicious.” Han Yuecheng praised it after taking one bite. He quickly swallowed the food in his mouth, drank a bowl of wild duck soup impatiently, smacked his lips and said, "This soup tastes delicious, too."

The four of them successfully ate their fill, and Han Yuecheng consciously cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.

"Siying, why did you open the fire by yourself?" Chen Banghua asked doubtfully. Have the few of you always gotten along well?

"When I first arrived at the Youth League House, I started cooking by myself. This is the stove, so I shared it with you first. Then we started the autumn harvest, which delayed us." Yun Siying explained.

"I thought it was something we did well. As long as it's right, that's good." Chen Banghua felt a little regretful. With Siying as his partner, the food she cooked was really delicious. Nangong's cooking skills also had more variety.

Han Yuecheng was anxious when he saw that the two brothers did not force Siying to stay, but he also found a reason to keep her, saying that they would be very busy in the coming time.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Yun Siying put the food into a basket, covered it with a piece of odor-isolating cloth, and quietly left the Youth League Home. She soon appeared in the cowshed and knocked on the tattered and somewhat shaky door again.

The three of them became alert when they heard the footsteps. One of them wondered, "Who is it?" when they heard the unrhythmic knock on the door.

"Old man, it's me, Yun Siying."

Mr. Ming opened the door unhappily: "Girl, why are you here?"

Yun Siying quickly entered the room and said with a smile, "Come and continue to become my disciple?"

"Oh? Girl, what gift are you bringing today?" Mr. Hua became interested. He thought, you might bring a gift back, right?

"I didn't bring any apprenticeship gifts today. It would be too troublesome to bring them with me, so I just didn't bring any."

"Then what's in your basket?" Mr. Hua looked like he was saying, "Look, I trust you."

"This is a gift for the two old men and my future master. You can take it back with you."
