Chapter 2 Cooking in a cow and horse shed
Tan Qingqing has no younger siblings and is an only child.
She watched her classmates "bully" her younger siblings when they were fine, but she was envious.
Now that I picked up these three babies halfway, they are not pro, and they are "bullied", so there is no psychological burden, okay!
It's the one in my arms, the smallest, the most ghostly, and the most delicious.
Chen Hua touched her hungry stomach and muttered pitifully, "But slippery and hungry." ”
Chen Shi immediately saw the stitches.
"It's a flower, not a slippery flower! And I can't help it if I'm hungry. If there is food to eat, can Tan Qingqing sell us? ”
"Of course, I waited until I got to the city and thought about it!"
And speaking of Tan Qingqing, a girl, it is also strange that she dares to bargain with human traffickers.
Ordinary girls are in the boudoir, and the big deal is to embroider and practice calligraphy.
But Tan Qingqing is different, Tan Qingqing has had martial arts since he was a child.
Tan Qingqing's father is a martial artist, and he never treats Tan Qingqing as a girl.
Whenever he came back, in addition to handing over the money to Tan Qingqing's mother, Tan Qingqing's father's favorite thing was to teach Tan Qingqing to learn kung fu.
It's just that a few years ago, when Tan Qingqing's father and mother went out to walk darts, it was a war, and several dart routes were cut off.
So much so that now, she doesn't know whether her father is dead or alive.
Chen An also took a fancy to Tan Qingqing's martial arts, and he had a household registration and a road guide, so he took his younger brothers and sisters to "commit" Tan Qingqing.
"But Slippery is really hungry!"
Chen Hua, who is a small ghost, has a deflated face.
Chen An and Chen Shi didn't expect Tan Qingqing to take out the stored grain to eat, not to mention that Tan Qingqing didn't have the stored grain at all.
Who knows, this time, Tan Qingqing frowned, stopped, and dragged them away from the army.
Faced with the confusion of the three faces, Tan Qingqing had no choice but to speak coldly and pretending to be indifferent.
"If you're tired of walking, find a place to rest, rest, and walk again tomorrow."
The four or three of them did not enter the Chenghuang Temple at the entrance of the southwest village, but randomly found a broken cow and horse shed to live in temporarily.
This is a shed that has been dilapidated for many years.
The earthen house on the edge of the shed has long been in disrepair and has not been taken care of.
Even the tiles on the earthen houses were picked up by passing refugees.
There were no pots and pans in it, only a little black smoke on the wall of the stove, which proved that the adobe house had been inhabited before.
The sunset is remnant, and the wall is broken. Desolate, dead and lifeless, this is the scene of the famine years.
"Are we really going to stay here for one night?"
Chen Shi was a little afraid.
After all, a few days ago, when he didn't want to leave, Tan Qingqing scared him and said that there were wolves at night.
If you can't catch up with the big army before dark, you will be captured and eaten by the gray wolf.
When Tan Qingqing wanted to rest, he couldn't care about it so much, and he didn't have the strength to deliberately scare Chen Shi a few days ago.
"Yes, stay here for one night today."
Chen Shi's face suddenly became bitter.
But in these ten miles of land, there are only four of them, what if they are caught by coyotes at night as rations?
And Tan Qingqing couldn't care about Chen Shi's panic, because the system information jumped out again.
Post Quest 2: Let's cook a meal for the three Chen siblings! Reward +1 Barren Land, +3 Wheat Seeds, +3 Quick-Ripening Spring, +5 Copper Coins!
Finally, a new mission has been released.
It's just that the reward for this task is really small, if you continue to do this, when will you be able to become the landlord of Yuzhou City?
Tan Qingqing clicked on the interface bar many times, but there was no response. In the coin column, there are still only 10 copper plates.
After refreshing it more than a dozen times, Tan Qingqing finally accepted the fact that he only had 10 copper plates.
I had to settle down and give priority to making money by doing tasks.
However, Chen Shi was on the side again, making a fuss uneasily, "But Tan Qingqing, it's like a ghost village here at night, there is not even a figure, won't we be captured by ghosts?" ”
Who knew that Tan Qingqing directly rewarded Chen Shi with a violent shudder, "What is Tan Qingqing, Sister Qingqing!" ”
Under the pain, Chen Shi pursed his mouth aggrievedly, and corrected the name dissatisfiedly, "Sister Qingqing, let's go, it's too scary here, I'm afraid!" ”
Tan Qingqing sighed, and said viciously.
"Are you afraid? Your eldest brother and third sister are not afraid, but you are afraid of this monkey? No matter how scared you are, put up with me! Stay here today! ”
After "bullying" Chen Shi, Tan Qingqing picked up two broken bricks that no one wanted.
She went into space and harvested two handfuls of ripe wheat.
As soon as the wheat is freed from the space, the ears are automatically separated and become very dry and ready for the grinding process.
In order to let the three Chen brothers and sisters eat as soon as possible, Tan Qingqing went back to the cow and horse shed and picked up two stones, one large and one small.
And the big stones were laid on the ground, and the ears of wheat were spread on the faces, and the little stones were laid on the big stones and grinded.
Since there is no grinding stone and grinding plate, Tan Qingqing can only operate manually.
Tan Qingqing grinded for a long time before grinding out a thin layer of white noodles, which swept into the palms of people's hands, and even the palms of their palms were not enough.
Immediately, Tan Qingqing angrily threw the stone in his hand.
Just at this rate of grinding flour, still cooking?
Starve to death!
Chen An glanced at Tan Qingqing, looking at Tan Qingqing's anger at the stone, he actually showed a mocking look that seemed to be smiling but not laughing.
But soon, he was relentless.
After all, in order to survive, the three of them had to rely on Tan Qingqing's guidance.
"If you grind flour like this, even if you grind it until tomorrow, you won't be able to grind it."
Although Chen An didn't know why Tan Qingqing's cloth bag had a few more handfuls of wheat.
But since there is something to eat, Chen An naturally doesn't think about it so much.
"Give me how much wheat you have."
However, as soon as Chen An finished saying "leave it to me", he was already shocked and regretted.
Along the way, although Tan Qingqing was "close" to their three Chen brothers and sisters.
But in fact, Tan Qingqing never told them the details of his food.
Every time Chen Shi and Chen Hua asked if there was anything to eat, Tan Qingqing only had three answers.
"Nope."
"I can't kill you."
"Shut up."
If the second brother and the third sister ask ruthlessly, Tan Qingqing often threatens with the words "I will throw you away if I ask again".
Now, he directly "grabbed" wheat from Tan Qingqing's hands, would Tan Qingqing be angry and secretly leave the three of their brothers and sisters here in the middle of the night when it was dark?
But this time, Chen An secretly observed Tan Qingqing's face, and Tan Qingqing didn't seem to be angry.
Instead, he put his hand on his waist, threw the job to Chen An, and said, "Come on." ”
Chen An breathed a sigh of relief speechlessly, it seems that this time, he did not step on Tan Qingqing's minefield.
The two handfuls of wheat were in Chen An's hands, and they were ground and crushed in a short time.
It's just that because it is coarsely processed, the wheat flour is not finely ground, and it is still a little obstructive to pinch in the hand.
Luckily, none of them are sophisticated, as long as they have food in their mouths.
There was a well next to the earthen house, and Tan Qingqing brought a bucket of water up.
Although the wooden barrels used to draw water are still broken, and when the barrels squeak and are rolled up by the ropes, there is not much water left, but it is better than nothing.
In the end, everyone worked together to wash the broken pot on the stove.
The next step is to cook over the fire.
There wasn't enough dry wood on the kitchen stove, so they had to go to the edge of the hill to collect some firewood.
