Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 194: Inserting Bamboo Thorns

I felt very unhappy, because you have to know that when I became the Taoist priest's disciple, I went through layers of selection and received extremely harsh training before I was finally able to become his disciple.

How come it was so easy for Lu Chuan to become a disciple?

But Yunhua soon put this matter behind her because she smelled the fragrance of the food and was instantly attracted to breakfast again.

"The meal is ready. Everyone go wash your hands and come over to eat." Xu Han shouted loudly.

Today's breakfast is sweet potato rice porridge and egg pancakes.

Xu Han also cooked some eggs and salted duck eggs, and paired them with the chili sauce and pickles she had made earlier. It was also a very rich meal. There were many people with different tastes, so Xu Han specially prepared more kinds of pickles so that anyone could take whatever they wanted to eat.

"This pickled cucumber is delicious!" Yunhua said loudly.

Upon hearing this, the others quickly tasted a piece, and Grandpa Zhao said, "It's crisp and delicious, sour, and has a strong sauce flavor. It's really good."

"If it's delicious, eat more. I've also made a lot of other pickles. I'll let you try them some other day."

"Okay, okay, then can we take some with us when we leave? I won't take it for nothing. I'm paying for it." Yunhua said while eating.

"If you are not afraid of getting diarrhea from eating it in the hot weather, I think the girl will get it for you." The Taoist priest joked.

Everyone else burst into laughter after hearing this. Yunhua thought about it and it seemed to be true. It seemed that he really couldn't keep it in such a hot day, so he had to give up.

Immediately discard the idea that you can't take anything away, and start eating with big mouthfuls. Since you can't take anything away, just eat more now!

Everyone enjoyed this simple breakfast very much. After breakfast, Lu Chuan led Yunhua, the Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao to the outside wall to insert bamboo thorns.

Although the Taoist priest has arrived and his fighting power has increased a lot, we still have to take precautions and we can't just give up halfway!

You have to finish what you start, and it won't take much effort. With so many people here, we can probably finish piercing the bamboo thorns this morning.

They went outside to remove the bamboo thorns, while Xu Han and Zhao Yunyun stayed in the yard to clean up.

Zhao Yunyun had never worked before and didn’t know how to do many things, nor had she ever had the chance to do them, so she just followed Xu Han and learned little by little.

Seeing that she was very interested, Xu Han taught her patiently. They first went into the room, took out the quilts and hung them up to dry, and then brought the clothes that they had washed and dried yesterday into the house.

Then Xu Han took Zhao Yunyun to the backyard to feed the chickens, ducks, geese and corn.

"The drought is quite serious now and there is no green grass, so the corn eats the hay. Just put it directly into its feeding trough." Xu Han said.

After saying that, he went to the water tank to fetch water, added water to the livestock, and cleaned the pen. Then the two of them returned to the front yard together.

There were many people and much to eat, and there was still plenty of time, so Xu Han taught Zhao Yunyun how to pick and cut vegetables. Although Zhao Yunyun had never done it before, she was very willing to learn and did it very seriously, but her speed was too slow.

These are also very simple for Zhao Yunyun. After all, she often helps to process medicinal materials, just with different methods. However, it is still easy to get started with washing and cutting.

The two of them were preparing the food and chatting at the same time. Time passed quickly without them noticing. Just as they finished the meal, they returned from inserting bamboo thorns.

"Why are you working so late today? It's so hot, why don't you come back earlier?" Xu Han asked while serving the dishes.

"Yunhua and Xiaochuan said they were going to hunt in the mountains in the afternoon so they could have some extra food in the evening, so they hurried to finish inserting all the bamboo thorns." Grandpa Zhao replied.

When Xu Han heard this, she immediately complained to Lu Chuan, "What a fool you are! You two are young, so why do you let Grandpa Zhao and the Taoist priest follow you? Why don't you let them come back earlier? The sun is so strong, it will be terrible if they get heatstroke."

Lu Chuan was scolded so much that he didn't dare to speak. He wanted to defend himself, but seeing his wife's expression, he decided to forget it! Don't ask for scolding anymore.

Grandpa Zhao chimed in, "We two old men insisted on coming. Xiaochuan asked us to come back early, but we refused. Even though we are old, this little bit of sun is nothing to us."

The Taoist priest also said, "That's right, our physical fitness is better than yours!"

Okay, okay! Xu Han stopped talking, as if what he said was true. The Taoist priest had better physical fitness than himself. As for Grandpa Zhao, he was a miracle doctor. How could his physical fitness be bad? He was worrying for nothing.

After Xu Han served the dishes, she returned to the kitchen to bring out the honeysuckle water that had been prepared in advance and handed it to everyone, saying, "Let's drink some water and take a rest first! I'll go mix some cold dishes. We'll be ready to eat soon."

When they arrived at the kitchen, Zhao Yunyun was helping to wash the used pots and pans. The two of them worked together for a while before starting to bring the remaining food into the main room.

After lunch, everyone took a nap to rest for a while so that they could go hunting in the afternoon.

Because it was too hot, the peppers at home had not been watered for two days. While everyone was asleep, Xu Han and Lu Chuan hurried to the waterfall outside to fetch water. The Taoist priest heard the noise and followed them out of the yard.

"Master, please go and have a rest first! The two of us can go together. The waterfall is very close to here." Lu Chuan said.

"It's okay. I'll go with you to take a look and learn about the situation."

Then he continued, "Tomorrow the two of them will leave, and then we can use the space to do things freely.

There is no need to avoid Old Man Zhao. I told him before coming here that no matter what he sees, he doesn't need to ask too many questions. Just eat and drink as usual, pretend you don't know anything and don't be curious. "

After a brief pause, he continued, "You two can rest assured about his character. I can guarantee that he is not a meddlesome person.

He should be able to guess some of the reasons, but he didn't ask me much, and I didn't tell him actively. You don't have to say so much when the time comes, just keep everything as usual.

Don't worry about him. If he asks anything, he will ask me, and then I can just give him an answer.

As for my silly apprentice and that girl Yunyun, they are still young after all.

But they are all smart people, even if they see something, they will pretend not to know, so there is no need to be too shy about cooking these two days, as long as it is not too outrageous. "
