After a busy period, a pot of steaming hand-rolled noodles came out of the pot.

Although the only seasoning is salt, there is no other seasoning such as sesame oil and chopped green onions to enhance the flavor.

But the hunger in his stomach still made Chen Xiangdong swallow his saliva.

After filling two large bowls with noodles, Chen Xiangdong walked out of the kitchen.

"Youyou is here for dinner."

Youyou, who was originally sitting on the bench in a daze, immediately turned around and looked at her brother when she heard him calling her to eat.

Seeing his brother holding two bowls of steaming hand-rolled noodles, his originally lifeless eyes suddenly brightened up.

"Brother, it's hand-rolled noodles!"

Youyou happily jumped down from the bench, trotted all the way to her brother's side, tilted her little head and watched her brother put the hand-rolled noodles on the table.

At this time, Youyou's mouth was already full of saliva.

She was very hungry. She hadn't eaten anything for several days. She and her brother drank salt water every day. In summer, she could eat some wild vegetables, but in the winter in the north, there were no wild vegetables to eat.

Chen Xiangdong put the hand-rolled noodles on the table and handed the chopsticks to Youyou.

"Come and eat it, my brother just made it, it smells delicious."

Youyou took the chopsticks and nodded in agreement. Just as the chopsticks touched the noodles, Youyou stopped.

Although the noodles smelled delicious, Youyou still resisted the urge to eat them.

Before her parents passed away, they often taught Youyou that she should not steal anything from others, as it was wrong to do so.

So at this time Youyou was a little suspicious, wondering if her brother had taken the flour from someone else's house.

After all, the family had run out of food a long time ago, so how could they still have white flour to eat?

"Brother, Mom said that we can't eat from other people's homes..."

Chen Xiangdong felt an inexplicable soreness in his nose when he heard this.

"Silly sister, why would you steal from someone else? I've already found a job. I'm just borrowing flour from my colleague."

"Really, brother? You found a job?"

"Several brothers from my second uncle's family and several brothers from my third uncle's family have not found a job. I didn't expect that you, brother, have found one."

"Brother is indeed the best. Once he finds a job, we won't be hungry anymore."

Upon hearing the news, Youyou danced with joy.

Chen Xiangdong whispered to Youyou not to say anything, in case the beasts in the courtyard heard it, they would inevitably become jealous.

Although I'm not afraid of them, I'm eating right now and it's bound to affect my mood.

Then Youyou happily ate the hand-rolled noodles in big mouthfuls, mumbling something to herself.

"Brother, hand-rolled noodles are so delicious. Let's not eat them anymore. Let's eat cornmeal steamed bread instead. They're cheaper..."

Chen Xiangdong nodded, didn't say anything else, and started to eat with the bowl in his hand.

After all, now that I have the system, I won't have to worry about food and drink in the future. Now I am planting an acre of wheat that is about to mature in the space. When it matures, I can also plant some other fruits and vegetables...

..............

outside the house.

Banggeng took out a steamed bun from home and started eating it.

It is winter vacation now and there are not many children of my age in the courtyard, so unlike in school, I can have fun every day.

So, since the winter vacation, Banggeng has liked to bully Youyou who lives in the same courtyard.

In the yard, Jia Zhang and a few middle-aged women were sewing shoe soles.

Seeing Banggeng coming out with the steamed bread, Jia Zhang began to give some instructions.

"My dear grandson, why are you carrying the steamed bread with you? Be careful that little beast Youyou might snatch your steamed bread away."

Upon hearing this, Bang Geng put his hands on his hips and said arrogantly.

"Youyou can't beat me. I'm the one who usually bullies her. If she dares to steal my steamed bread, I'll just slap her."

"My dear grandson, you are really awesome. Next time you see her, beat her up severely. She deserves to be beaten to death."

"Sister-in-law, please speak softly. It would be bad if Youyou's brother Chen Xiangdong heard it." An aunt advised in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang twisted her head and threw away the sole of her shoe arrogantly.

"He dares!!!"

"What's wrong with hearing it? He's going to starve to death sooner or later anyway, so what's wrong with saying a few words to him?"

"If he dares to touch me, my Dongxu will not let him off easily."

"My Dongxu is about to be promoted to level three fitter. Who in the whole courtyard is as good as my Dongxu?"

"Chen Xiangdong doesn't have a job, and he can't even afford to eat. How can he compare with my Dongxu?"

In her words, Jia Zhang kept bragging about her son.

The two middle-aged ladies at the side also responded.

Only an auntie knows best.

It is true that Jia Dongxu is Yi Zhonghai's apprentice, but whether this apprentice is smart or stupid, probably only she and Yi Zhonghai know.

Not to mention how many products were scrapped, it took several years just to upgrade to a second-level fitter. There was no one as stupid as Jia Dongxu in the entire steel rolling mill.

Because of this incident, Yi Zhonghai was often ridiculed at the steel mill, and people said that he had accepted a stupid apprentice.

Although no one dared to say it to his face due to Yi Zhonghai's identity as an eighth-level fitter, many people laughed at him behind his back.

Because of this, the aunt often sulked with the uncle at home.

But the uncle always brought up the issue of retirement, and the aunt had no choice but to endure it.

After all, she is infertile, and her uncle doesn't despise her, so what else can her aunt say?

At this moment, Jia Zhang was bragging about Jia Dongxu. The aunt felt very uncomfortable and went home with a random excuse.

"Sister-in-law, you guys can chat first. I'm going home first."

Seeing the old lady coming home, Jia Zhang glanced at her coldly.

"Humph! I'm afraid this old man is jealous. He sees that my Dongxu is so outstanding, but he himself can't have children."

The other aunts smiled awkwardly.

Banggeng was chewing on a steamed bun and was bored when suddenly an idea came to him.

I just want to go and have some fun, but I won't give her any food.

Thinking of this, Banggeng trotted all the way to Youyou's house.

He ran to Youyou's house, kicked the door open and shouted loudly.

"Youyou, come here quickly. Do you want to eat steamed bread? Kowtow to me a few times, and maybe I'll let you have a bite."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bang Geng regretted it.

At this time, Chen Xiangdong and Youyou were eating the delicious hand-rolled noodles, and then looking at the cornmeal steamed bread in their hands.

Suddenly, Banggeng felt that the steamed bread in his hand was no longer fragrant.

When Youyou saw Banggeng coming, she felt a little scared. She protected the noodles in the bowl with both hands and whispered to her brother.

"Brother...I'm a little scared."

At this time, Chen Xiangdong's face was terribly gloomy.

I was just eating noodles at home, and the beast in the courtyard came to bully me?

Do you really think time travelers are just here to eat?

"You bastard, you dare to kick my door, I'll skin you alive today!"

"Youyou, stay home and close the door. Don't come out."

After saying that, Chen Xiangdong rushed to Banggeng's front in one step.

He had just taken the Body Tempering Pill in the kitchen, and his physical qualities had already surpassed those of ordinary people.

Let's not talk about others, just take Siheyuan War God Sha Zhu for example. Chen Xiangdong can easily beat five or six of them.

At this time, Banggeng didn't notice Chen Xiangdong at all. His eyes were completely attracted by the hand-rolled noodles on the table.

The useless Bang Geng was drooling at this moment. In their family, Jia Dongxu was the only one who worked, and the whole family depended on his salary. They seldom ate white flour on weekdays, and only made a few white flour buns during the New Year and other festivals.

At this moment, Banggeng was so greedy when he saw the Youyou brother and sister eating hand-rolled noodles.

"Youyou, bring the hand-rolled noodles over here quickly, or I'll beat you up."

As soon as Bang Geng finished speaking, Chen Xiangdong grabbed Bang Geng's ear and lifted him up.

"Still want to eat hand-rolled noodles? I'm going to teach you a lesson today!!"

"How dare you kick my door!!!"
