Traveling through time with billions of supplies to become a farmer's little fortune
Chapter 45: Going up the mountain to find salt mines
Su Muyao took the red envelope and put it in her pocket happily.
Although she knew that the family was in financial difficulty, my mother still specified that she would give red envelopes to those cousins.
If I don't accept it, they will definitely feel embarrassed to accept it, so of course I have to accept it.
"Hey, grandma's sweetheart, come and eat."
The old lady held Su Muyao tightly in her arms and refused to let go. The old lady scooped the egg custard with a spoon and put it into the little milk ball's bowl.
"My dear, come and try it, it's so delicious."
As he spoke, he scooped a spoonful from the bowl and handed it to Su Muyao's mouth.
The smooth and soft texture of the egg custard made Su Muyao's eyes light up.
It’s no secret that the eggs from ancient times were delicious, fragrant and without any fishy smell.
Pure natural food tastes different.
There were also green vegetables in the pot, which looked like cold wild vegetables. I took a piece with chopsticks and put it in my mouth. It tasted a bit bitter but not the bitterness of the vegetables.
Su Muyao was chewing and muttering in her heart that this taste was very similar to the slight bitterness that her grandmother had put in the oil residue before.
Looking at another pot, it turned out to be a soup made of radish and cabbage.
I picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in my mouth. It was just boiled in plain water. It had no taste except a little salt, and the salt seemed to be a little bitter.
I carefully recalled the large grains of coarse salt with a slightly yellowish color in the salt jar of Old Mrs. Su when she was at home.
But it is obvious that the impurities in the salt here are more turbid, otherwise it would not taste so bitter.
Everyone finished the meal in no time.
All Su Muyao is thinking about now is going back to start refining refined salt.
Although the salt used at home now is taken out from the space, the salt used in the village and in the homes of my grandparents is still coarse salt with a lot of impurities.
No wonder the average life expectancy of ancient people was so short. It seems that salt was largely the reason.
I had fun with my cousins in the village for the whole afternoon. Dinner was also simple, with only wild vegetable soup and pancakes on the table.
Similarly, I have a small bowl of egg custard that belongs to me alone.
Except for himself and Su Mingxuan, everyone else was eating the wild vegetable soup on the table with pancakes.
Even my third aunt's youngest son was eating the pancake in his hand obediently.
Su Muyao broke off a piece of the cake from her mother's hand, took a bite, and found it hard and sour on the throat.
The cakes are probably made from sorghum without being shelled but ground directly into powder to form dry food cakes.
The food provided by the Wang family is considered normal in this village. Some families cannot even afford this kind of cake.
Many people still eat wild vegetable porridge, while those who are slightly better off eat whole grain porridge.
But this family seemed to be accustomed to the meal. The children ate it so voraciously, as if it were some extraordinary delicacy.
Looking at the small bowl of egg custard in front of him, his eyes turned red.
"My dears, this is for you. You are too young to eat the pancake or the eggs."
As she spoke, the old lady of the Wang family handed Su Mingxuan a boiled egg.
He knocked the other one on the table, gently removed the shell, and then handed it to Su Muyao who was sitting in front of him.
Everyone saw Naituanzi looking at the peeled egg in his hand and was hesitant to take any next move. No one knew what was wrong with Naituanzi.
Su Muyao then broke the peeled eggs into two halves and placed them in the bowls of her grandparents respectively.
When the old couple saw that this wasn't going to work, they picked them up and put them back into the bowl of milk dumplings.
"Grandpa and grandma, you eat this. I can eat this every day at home."
The old lady touched the baby's soft hair kindly.
"That's good. Our darling needs to eat more so that he can grow taller and look at his little face." As he said that, he kissed the little baby's face.
The old couple looked at the little girl and loved her very much. They also learned from their daughter that this was the baby their son-in-law brought back from outside.
Although she was adopted, everyone in Lao Su loves this little girl.
Looking at it this way, not only them, but I like it too. This chubby little face looks just like the big fat baby holding a carp in the painting that year.
During this dinner, Su Muyao felt some pain in her chest until midnight. It was because the pancake was too hard.
The meal she had here made her fully realize the hardships of life for ancient farmers.
In the Su family, I have been secretly buying all kinds of things from outside since I was born, and the food at home has basically been getting better and better, so I have never suffered any hardship.
It was a dreamless night. In the morning, his father got up early and busy himself before taking Su Muyao and Su Mingxuan home.
After returning home, Naituanzi insisted on taking Su Laosan to the mountain.
I still remember the salt gizzard that White Wolf gave me. Wherever there is that thing, there must be a salt mine nearby.
Su Sanlang wandered around the edge of the mountains with his little baby. He really didn't have the courage to go inside. Although he had been there once before, that was because there were two tigers leading the way.
Who knows if there are other wild animals in this deep mountain? Not all wild animals recognize their little daughter. Looking at his daughter who kept urging him in his arms, he was in a dilemma. What should he do?
After a while, Su Muyao waited for a little wolf to come.
It looked like it was only one or two months old. She picked up the wolf cub from the ground and held it in her arms.
Not to mention that this little wolf cub is plump and heavy from all the food he eats.
Soon, the wolf king came up to him. After understanding, he realized that this was his cub who had escaped without knowing how.
When I came here early by smelling the cub's scent, I found that the cub's scent was actually the same as that of a human cub.
"Ow"
“Awooo~Awooo~Awooo”
When Su Sanlang heard the big wolf and the little wolf barking at each other, he quickly took the little wolf out of his daughter's arms and returned it to the wolf king.
As soon as she put the little wolf cub in front of the wolf king, the little wolf cub ran to Su Muyao again.
"Since you like me so much, then follow me in the future."
When the wolf king heard this, he could only secretly envy his own cub.
Following the human cub, you will never have to worry about food and drink. The most important thing is the delicious magic water, which is probably the greatest fortune for your cub in the future.
"Do you still remember the location of the two big mushrooms you gave me last time? Take me there to see them."
The white wolf nodded, and Su Muyao followed behind him slowly into the mountains.
After walking around for a long time, I finally saw the destination I came here for on a high place.
The most important thing is that we actually found four or five more salt mushrooms.
