Jiang Li first taught Lin Xuan how to make a fire.
Nowadays, most people in rural areas use earthen stoves and cook with firewood.
In fact, some families in the city use wood stoves, but most families use coal stoves. Burning coal is much more convenient than burning firewood.
Jiang Li also has a coal stove here, but she still prefers to cook with firewood, as the food tastes better this way.
Jiang Li taught Lin Xuan how to use a firewood stove to cook, as burning firewood is also a technical job.
First you have to start the fire, and then add firewood little by little.
The fire was started by something flammable, such as straw or pine nuts.
After these flammable things are burning, add some dry branches.
When the dry branches are burning, slowly add some hard wood and the fire will burn brighter and brighter.
What Jiang Li said was simple, but when Lin Xuan actually did it, it was very difficult.
Following Jiang Li's instructions, Lin Xuan started to make a fire.
After fiddling with it for a while, he still couldn't light a fire and his face was covered in ash.
Seeing Lin Xuan's face turned black from making a fire, Jiang Li felt a little embarrassed to watch.
Lin Xuan, the delicate young lady, didn't care much about her image at this moment. She wiped the dust off her face and continued to practice making fire.
Fortunately, after trying a few times, the girl gradually mastered some skills and was able to start a fire.
She just didn't control the step of adding hard wood well and easily put out the fire.
Jiang Li asked her to take it slow, not expecting her to learn everything at once.
After the fire is lit, the next step is to cook.
Jiang Li didn't let Lin Xuan take part in this step for the time being. If she were to do it right away, it would be a sheer waste of ingredients. It would be better for her to learn some theoretical knowledge first.
While cooking, Jiang Li explained the specific methods to Lin Xuan.
After Lin Xuan observes for a while and has acquired more theoretical knowledge, we will let her do it.
After working for an hour, Jiang Li prepared dinner.
Lin Xuan asked Jiang Li with a smile, "Master, can I stay for dinner tonight?"
Lin Xuan felt that Jiang Li’s cooking skills were good, and eating with Jiang Li was definitely better than eating the food cooked by Zhang Lai Di.
Considering that there were several children eating together, it was not impossible for Jiang Li to cook a few more dishes and add an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks in the evening.
"Okay, you stay and eat with us."
When Lin Xuan saw Jiang Li agreed, she immediately smiled happily.
Jiang Li brought the food to the table and then invited the children to eat together.
These children were all abandoned by their families. They named themselves "Xiaoyi, Xiaoer, Xiaosan, Xiaosi and Xiaoyi" according to their age.
Because Jiang Li took them in, these kids just decided that from now on they would follow Jiang Li's surname and take Jiang.
Seeing the sumptuous meal on the table, the children couldn't help swallowing their saliva and couldn't believe that the meal was for them.
When Jiang Li invited them to come up for dinner, they subconsciously didn't dare to come closer.
Seeing that they didn't come over, Jiang Li asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Don't you want to eat? Aren't you hungry?"
Jiang Yi asked, "Sister Jiang, can we eat these things?"
"Yes, I invited you to come and eat, so of course you can eat."
