A farmer's daughter travels through time, farming and dividing the family to fight for the best

Li Laosi would never agree to go and see, as he knew best whether there was anyone at Li Quanfu's house.

"Old Four, do you have anything else to say?" The head of the village finally understood that the Li family was trying to extort money from the Xiao Xiao family. This had never happened in their Qinghe Village. It was really corrupting the morals of the people.

Faced with the questioning of the village head, Li Laosi felt ashamed. How arrogant he was just now, how embarrassed he felt now.

When Mrs. Li saw her beloved son being bullied, she was about to argue when she heard the voice of Ergou's grandmother from the same village.

The villagers consciously made way for Ergou, and Ergou's grandmother came quickly and grabbed Ergou's ear.

"You naughty child, you are such a worry-inducing child. I raised you with great difficulty. Now you have grown up and become capable. You can lie and cheat people. You didn't go anywhere last night and went to bed early. How could you see Xiao Xiao stealing things? Tell the head of the village what happened. " Grandma Zhang looked very disappointed in her grandson, but her eyes were full of love. She didn't expect her grandson would do such a thing.

"Grandma, it hurts, it hurts, I know I was wrong," Ergou cried out in pain.

Only then did Grandma Zhang let go of her hand.

As soon as he was free, Ergou touched his red and hot ears and told the whole truth.

It turned out that Li Laosi came to him and asked him to do a favor for 20 cents. He gave him 10 cents at first and was told that he would give him another 10 cents after the favor was done. Later he found out that Li Laosi wanted him to give false testimony. He did not agree at first, but Li Laosi threatened him, saying that if he did not help today, he would have no brotherhood in the future. Ergou had no choice but to agree.

The villagers who were watching the fun suddenly realized that Li Xiaoxiao stealing the reed stems was just a play directed and performed by the Li family themselves.

"Fourth Uncle, the truth is out, give me the money." Li Xiaoxiao stretched out his hand, palm facing up. His hands were full of marks left by years of labor, and his eyes were filled with contempt and provocation.

Faced with the pointing and criticizing of others, Li Laosi felt ashamed and embarrassed, and at this moment he wished there was a crack in the ground for him to crawl into.

"Why give me money? I didn't steal it, it's not a big deal." This was the first time that Old Mrs. Li had encountered such a thing in her life. She felt ashamed and just wanted to leave here as soon as possible.

Li Dahai felt heartbroken when he saw that his own mother not only did not blame Li Laosi, but also defended him.

"Fourth brother, give me the money." The head of the village ignored the old lady Li's unreasonable demands. Today's incident was obviously a case of the Li family wrongly accusing someone. If he couldn't handle it well, how could he be the head of Qinghe Village? At the same time, he secretly felt lucky that the little girl was smart, otherwise she would have suffered a great loss today.

Li Laosi knew that if he didn't pay, the matter would not be resolved, so he had to let Li Laotai pay.

Old Mrs. Li had no choice but to take out two cents and throw them on the ground reluctantly.

"Fourth Uncle, you are sending away beggars." Li Xiaoxiao glanced at the ground and then looked at Li Laosi.

Old Mrs. Li's eyes were about to spit fire, and she took out another eight cents from her bosom and threw them on the ground.

"I won't acknowledge the money until it reaches me."

Li Laosi just felt that Li Xiaoxiao was more difficult to deal with than before. Feeling angry, he bent down to pick up the ten cents on the ground and put it in Li Xiaoxiao's hand.

"Just wait for me." After saying these harsh words, he turned around and walked away in shame with his mother.

After the farce ended, everyone dispersed with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

Li Dahai sighed heavily. Li Quanfu didn't know how to comfort him. He patted him on the shoulder and continued to work. Due to the delay, it took a whole day to finish what could have been completed in the morning.

It was almost noon, Li Xiaoxiao and Sun were discussing what to cook, and the stove had already been set up.

The neighbor on the right is Aunt Hua. Aunt Hua has a bad reputation in the village. It seems that she is not at home today. She was not seen despite the big commotion just now. Li Xiaoxiao does not want to deal with her. On the left is Aunt Wang's house. Aunt Wang is kind and is a famous good person in the village.

Li Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said, "Auntie Wang may have some bacon at home. I'll go buy some and ask my elder sister to dig wild vegetables. We can cook them at noon, stir-frying wild vegetables with bacon."

Li Quanfu has a lot of bacon at home. If Li Xiaoxiao goes to his house to buy some, Aunt Zhang probably won't charge her. So she doesn't want to go, after all, it's hard to repay a favor.

Although she has all kinds of meat in her space, there is no legitimate opportunity to take it out. It is unrealistic for it to appear out of thin air.

Sun agreed. People worked so hard for a long time and didn't ask for any wages, so it's impossible not to give them decent meals.

Thinking of this, he told Li Ruolan to go and come back quickly.

In ancient times, there were no refrigerators at home, so some families would make bacon. The bacon is long-lasting and people would cut a piece of it to improve the meal during festivals or when relatives came to visit.

Aunt Wang's family was no exception. They had several kilograms of bacon. Li Xiaoxiao explained the purpose of their visit and Aunt Wang readily agreed.

Li Xiaoxiao bought 2 jin. Bacon is more expensive than the usual pork, 14 wen per jin. Pork is 10 wen per jin. Aunt Wang charged her 12 wen per jin. Li Xiaoxiao thanked her and asked for a handful of chili peppers. With so much meat mixed with some wild vegetables, it was considered a very rich meal.

When Li Xiaoxiao came back, Sun had already cleaned the pot, Li Ruolan was washing the vegetables, and Li Xiaoxiao washed the bacon and cut it into slices.

Sun made a fire and Li Xiaoxiao cooked. The Li family did not give them any oil, but fortunately the bacon cut by Aunt Wang had a lot of fat, so some oil could be fried out. When the pan was hot, they poured the bacon into the pan, which immediately made a sizzling sound.

There were no seasonings at home, but in that era there were actually some commonly used seasonings, such as onions, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers, which were all available in the Li family's vegetable garden. But Li Xiaoxiao couldn't pick them. There was no need to go in front of Old Lady Li for such a small matter.

While Sun was adding firewood, Li Xiaoxiao quickly took out the soy sauce from the space and poured it into the pot. He didn't dare pour too much, for fear that the color would be wrong. He also added some MSG and other seasonings. Soon the meat was cooked and the aroma wafted out of the pot. Li Xiaoxiao then poured the prepared wild vegetables into the pot and stir-fried them a few times.

When Li Quanfu finished his work, Li Xiaoxiao had already cooked the dishes and the multi-grain pancakes in another pot were also steamed.

Li Xiaoxiao filled each bowl with food and hurriedly invited Li Quanfu to come for dinner. Li Quanfu knew that Li Xiaoxiao's family was in financial difficulty and he didn't want to eat at her house, but the food was ready and he couldn't refuse.

The villagers didn't care much about eating. In the newly built straw shed, they randomly found some hay to pad the ground and sat on the ground, each holding a large bowl of food. Li Xiaoxiao added a lot of chili peppers and the aroma of meat, and they ate with great pleasure, their mouths full of oil.

Li Quanfu praised: "Xiaoxiao's dishes are really delicious. The taste is as good as that of the chefs in the county."

"No, it's just that I cook a lot every day, and my skills have improved naturally over time." What Li Xiaoxiao said was true. In the Li family, cooking was taken turns between her family and the third wife. Old Mrs. Li favored the fourth wife, and the fourth wife didn't even have to wash the dishes. She would eat at the appointed time and leave after eating. When their family cooked, the three of them would cook together.

"You are great, girl. With this skill, whoever marries you in the future will be blessed." Li Quanfu said with a smile.
