The next day, Yun Xueyin got up in the middle of the day, and wanted to steam the cakes in the morning. Yunxue doesn't like to eat dead noodles very much, and when she is at home, she always makes noodles. Last night, she used a big basin and made a large basin of noodles. In this way, it can be a little more convenient in the morning.

Yun Xue looked at the basin placed on the pot table, it was not bad, the noodles were open. At this time, there was no yeast, but fortunately, when she left the house, Yun Xue thought of these and brought out a piece of old noodles from home, which really came in handy.

After washing your hands, you will burn the bottom of the pot and put the curtain into the pot with a straw mat on top. I think it's because there is no drawer cloth, so I use this. With some water on my hands, I put the dough in the pot and put it in the pot. For more than 30 people to eat, they have to steam two pots to be enough.

The pot was full of dough, and Yun Xue covered the pot with two stones pressed on it. Then it's over, just pay attention to the fire at the bottom of the pot.

Taking advantage of this, she first went to get two cabbages, chopped them with a knife, and then mixed them with salt. There are no pickles on the mountain, so that's all you can do. This one takes a while to get in and the salty taste, and it's just right when it's time to eat.

Another pot was also lit on the fire, and water was added to it, and rice was added to it, and porridge was cooked. Yun Xue only took a slight break at this time, so many people eat, just cooking is tiring enough.

The first pot of cakes over there was cooked, and Yun Xue hurriedly took the cakes out of the pot. Then add some water to the pot and continue to steam on the second pot.

When the porridge was ready, I heard someone coming this way. Yun Xue hurriedly opened the door, "The meal is ready, come and eat." Yun Xue shouted loudly.

"Gee, it's nice to have someone who specializes in cooking. Otherwise, I used to cook in shifts, and the rice was either mushy or undercooked, which was really a sin. Everyone went into the house, and each of them took a bowl of porridge, and then one of them took a cake and ate it.

"Well, this cake is delicious, it's enough to be delicious. Don't say it, let's Xiaoyu, we really have a good craft. As soon as the men took a bite of the bread, their eyes widened. Good guy, this craft, even if there is a mother-in-law at home, may not be able to catch up.

Yun Xue smiled and watched these people eat, "Let's eat them all, there is still porridge, and it is not enough to serve it again." "It's actually fun to see other people like to cook their own food. Yun Xue knows that in fact, the skill of cooking by herself is average. It's just that half of these people have never got married, they are all singles, where have they eaten any serious meals?

"Okay, Xiaoyu, you can sit down and eat too. It's up early in the morning, but it's enough for you to get tired. Take time to rest during the day, you're still a kid. Sun Changhai was also very satisfied with Yun Xue's performance. He knew that this girl was indeed capable at home, being both a father and a mother. Sun Changhai looked at Yun Xue, and then at his son, if Yun Xue could become his daughter-in-law, it would be very good.

Yunxue is really busy this morning, and her feet don't touch the ground. I was tired and hungry at this time. I couldn't care about anything, so I sat there and ate a lot.

"Today, let's clean up the trip to transport wood out, and this year we have to go inside to get good wood. In this case, the trip will have to be longer. When all the trips are cleaned up, let's find a good day, worship the heavens, earth and the mountain gods, and then start putting wood. "Sun Changhai is the leader this year, and he has to arrange these jobs.

The people present are all familiar with it, and they can do these jobs well with their eyes closed. So there was no need to say anything, everyone nodded, and after eating, they went back to get their tools to work.

When these people left, Yun Xue cleaned up the house, and then went into the house to rest for a while.

In winter, the days are short, so it's just two meals. In the afternoon, it is generally the middle of the unitary hour, and the morning is the beginning of the morning. In between, Yunxue can arrange it freely. However, it has only been up the mountain for a few days, and the big guy has not changed his clothes yet, waiting for these people to get their clothes dirty, and Yun Xue will have a job to do. The clothes of thirty or so people were enough for her to wash.

In this way, after three days, the forest was almost cleared. Sun Changhai said that when the winter moon is twelve, you can pay tribute to the gods of heaven, earth and mountains, and then you can start work.

On the eleventh day of the winter month, Qian Mingyuan went to the bottom of the mountain and bought a lot of things, all of which were used as sacrifices. And at the same time, there was an old man. This old man, probably seventy years old, was a little rickety, and his hair and beard were gray. But the eyes are very sharp, and at first glance he looks like a weather-beaten, but also experienced person.

This person is also from the mountain field, but it is a special case. He is not just a wooden gang, but a person who is very respected in the entire mountain field. No matter which wooden gang wants to start worshipping the sky, he must preside over the memorial ceremony. All the wooden gangs must pay tribute to this old man, he is very authoritative in this mountain field.

These, Zheng Song secretly said to Yun Xue, "It is said that this old man is a figure who can communicate with the gods." And the old man has a good kung fu, someone has seen it before, it is really a cornice walking wall, and his body is as light as a swallow. It's just that this old man has a very strange temper, and no one cares about it. In the past, your father could still talk to him a few words, but the rest of the people couldn't. ”

In Zhengsong's tone, there was a touch of envy and a little frustration. He has always wanted to worship this old man as a teacher, but unfortunately this old man is very stubborn and ignores himself.

"In the entire Hengshan Mountain Field, there must be no less than twenty wooden gangs. Each of these wood gangs has its own territory, and no one else can come to cut wood. But some of the wood gangs, the wood in their own territory is not as good as others, there will be some disputes, and it is all this old man who settles these things. All the wooden gangs, to this old man, are very obedient. Masomatsu continued.

Yun Xue was curious about this old man, but she hadn't heard her father mention it. I didn't expect that there would be such a character. However, curiosity is curiosity, and dinner still has to be made in the evening. Yun Xue looked at the sky, then turned around and went into the house to cook.

"Xiaoyu, you can get these together in a while and fry two dishes separately. This is prepared for Old Man Dong, and Brother Sun and I have to have a few drinks with the old man in the evening. As long as the old man can stay with us for a while more this year, no one will come to trouble us this year. Qian Mingyuan carried some chickens and fish and other things in his hand, and asked Yun Xue to make them alone.

This is not difficult for Yun Xue, "Okay, I'll do it, Uncle Qian don't worry." Yun Xue took the things and began to deal with them with her hands and feet neatly.

"Well, you have finished the meal that the big guy eats first, this is in a hurry." Qian Mingyuan instructed a few more words. "The main thing is that it has to be delicious, this old man, I heard that he likes to eat the most. It's a pity that we didn't have anyone who could cook in the mountains before. This time, it's up to you. ”

Yun Xue understands that this is related to whether they can go smoothly this winter in the mountain field. So I solemnly agreed. "Cheng, I see. For the evening, I just try my best to make it. ”

In the evening, everyone came to eat, but Qian Mingyuan and Sun Changhai did not come. When everyone had finished eating and left, the two of them accompanied the old man Dong.

Yun Xue looked at it, and quickly brought up all the prepared dishes, braised carp, chicken stewed vermicelli, scrambled eggs, and a braised pork.

"Come on, old man, come and try these dishes tonight. Don't look at our little Han Yu's young age, he really has two skills in cooking. Tonight, let's have a few drinks. Sun Changhai hurriedly said.

When the old man Dong looked at these dishes, a smile appeared on his face, "I really didn't expect that you would be such a capable person." Well, since we have good food, we have to have two drinks in the evening. The old man was also interested and happy.

When Qian Mingyuan saw this, he quickly got up and poured wine for the old man. "Come, old man, boy toast you."

The three of them took a sip of wine, and then they all began to eat. The old man took a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, "Well, it tastes really good." Okay, boy, there are two hits. Wrong? Where's this kid? This is clearly a girl. Xiao Qian, Xiao Sun, what are you doing here? Which one is the whole one? ”

The old man didn't pay attention to Yun Xue at all just now, and now he felt that the food tasted good, so he couldn't help but look at Yun Xue twice. Just like that, he saw it.

Yun Xue was shocked, so many people haven't seen a flaw for several days. Why did the old man only look at himself twice and see through it? Yun Xue looked up at Qian Mingyuan and Sun Changhai, not knowing what to do with it.

"Old man, don't be angry first, we can't help it. This is the former leader, the eldest daughter of Han Yong's family. Han Yong was gone when he released the platoon this summer, and his daughter-in-law also died, leaving him with seven children. This child is at home, and he is a father and a mother pulling several younger siblings. My grandson and I also pity her, seeing that their family has no income, I am afraid that we will not be able to support those children. That's why I wanted her to come here and do some odd jobs to earn money. Old man, for the sake of Han Yong's face, let her stay. Qian Mingyuan hurriedly explained.

After listening to this, the old man Dong looked at Yunxue carefully a few times, and then smiled. "You two, you really don't know gold and jade. This girl clearly has a good kung fu, but it's a pity that you let her do chores here. Girl, the old man wants to take you as an apprentice, what do you think? ”

Old Man Dong's words suddenly stunned all three people in the room.
