In the book, I was fed by my sister

Song Li carefully held the black pill, her eyes full of confusion and helplessness. She sniffed it and her brows knitted into a small knot. The smell was simply unbearable.

She turned to look at the elder sister next to her and whispered, "Why does this pill smell so bad?"

"Good medicine tastes bitter, just swallow it in one gulp. It will be fine if you eat a piece of candy." Song Ran thought the child was afraid of the bitterness, so he comforted him softly and handed him a glass of water.

"It's not bitter, I just feel it's a bit stinky." Song Li replied hesitantly.

"Smelly?" Song Ran heard it and sniffed it curiously, frowning slightly: "It seems to be a bit..."

Seeing this, Grandma Gu at the side slowly said, "Maybe they added some medicinal herbs that we have never heard of, otherwise why would they directly rub them into medicinal pills and sell them."

Song Ran felt that what Grandma Gu said made sense. In their place, when people got sick, they usually tried folk remedies first.

Only if folk remedies are ineffective will people go to see a doctor.

The doctor would write a prescription based on the patient's condition, and then the patient would go to get the medicine. If a certain medicine in the prescription was common, the doctor would specifically tell the patient not to get it, because they might be able to find it at home.

For example, for cold and no sweat, the prescription usually contains ginger, licorice, tangerine peel, etc., which are easy to find at home. The doctor will specially outline them and tell them that they don’t need to take these ingredients, just add them when boiling the medicine.

This time, the doctor directly gave the medicine pill, which must be made of various hard-to-find medicinal materials.

Song Li met the gazes of the two men, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and swallowed the pill.

The moment the pill slid down her throat, she felt nauseous and almost couldn't help vomiting.

"Ugh~" She covered her mouth. It had been a long time since she had eaten something so disgusting. But thinking that this might be a tael of silver, she resisted the discomfort and tried hard to swallow it.

As Su Xiaoxiao stepped into the yard, a strong aroma of meat hit her in the face. The whole air was filled with the mouth-watering smell, and she couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Meat!

Meat!

She hasn't eaten meat since she came here!

"Ranran, here I come!" she called excitedly.

Song Ran came out from the house upon hearing the voice, and greeted with a smile: "Come in quickly! I was wondering why you haven't come yet, the meat is just stewed till tender."

Su Xiaoxiao was carrying a basket with four bowls of ice jelly in it, which she prepared specially for today's dinner. Fortunately, she prepared an extra bowl, because she estimated that the old lady next door would also come to Song Ran's house for dinner.

"I've made a new version of the ice jelly. I added a little mint and brown sugar. You guys can try it."

The ice jelly made this time was praised by Lin Shibo and others. Ever since their eldest brother explained her origins, that boy has always disliked her.

But she didn't blame them. After all, she had spent their money and now she was living in their house and eating at their food. It was inevitable that she would feel uncomfortable.

Su Xiaoxiao once proposed to Lin Shijia that she wanted to leave Lihua Village and find a job in the city, as long as she had a place to live.

But Lin Shijia gave her a thorough explanation that she, who now had no household registration, could not run around.

She seemed to have re-understood the meaning of "obey your father at home and obey your husband after marriage". They can be said to be the people who directly control women's household registration!

Without a household registration, she even found it difficult to leave the city and stay in a hotel, which undoubtedly poured cold water on her dream of becoming a female knight.

Therefore, she can only make a living under the roof of the Lin family and must not be disliked anymore.

Song Li took a bowl of ice jelly, and the cool feeling instantly spread from her fingertips. She drank it all in one gulp, and a satisfied expression appeared on her face.

This bowl of ice jelly was made with spiritual spring water. She could feel it when Su Xiaoxiao brought it out.

Every bite was filled with natural sweetness and coolness, and her body and mind were fully nourished.

It’s another moment of being nourished by the spiritual spring.

“Delicious!”

Song Ran and Grandma Gu also took a sip each, and both showed a look of surprise on their faces, "It tastes much better, it can be considered a cold drink."

Su Xiaoxiao was very happy to see everyone's reaction. She said excitedly, "Really? I plan to sell it to someone who owns a store in the city. I will go to various restaurants in the city tomorrow."

"Sell it to someone who owns a shop?" Su Xiaoxiao's suggestion hit Song Ran at once.

She had always been worried about not being able to find a market for her mushrooms, and Su Xiaoxiao's proposal seemed to have opened a new door for her.

Why should she worry about not being able to sell the mushrooms!

"Xiaoxiao, thank you so much!" Song Ran hugged Su Xiaoxiao excitedly.

Having been busy with farm work all my life, the way to make money seems to be fixed on the land. If I am tied up, I may just lack a little bit of strength.

"What's wrong?" Su Xiaoxiao asked in confusion.

Song Ran took Su Xiaoxiao's hand, sat down, and said, "Let's talk about it later, let's eat first!"

Su Xiaoxiao sat down and saw the four dishes on the table. At first, she was not attracted by the meat dish, but was attracted by the three vegetarian dishes.

In this ancient time without pesticides and chemical fertilizers, she was amazed by the appearance and color of these dishes, which were in no way inferior to the vegetables she bought through grocery shopping apps in the modern world.

The vegetables grown by Lin Shibo’s family are of different sizes, shapes, and have worm holes, but they have the flavor of vegetables! It is the flavor of the vegetables grown by her grandmother when she was a child.

She picked up an eggplant with chopsticks, put it in her mouth, and was immediately conquered by the delicious taste. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow! Ranran, you are really a great chef!"

What surprised her even more was that the flavors of these dishes seemed to take her back to her childhood, when she often tasted the freshness and sweetness of the vegetables grown by her grandmother.

"Don't make fun of me. Don't just eat vegetables, eat meat."

Su Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "What's the name of this dish?" She felt that this stew seemed very similar to a dish she had eaten before, except that it lacked the garnish of tiger skin green peppers.

"This is pork belly." Song Ran replied.

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect to encounter dishes with the same names in this different time and space. She didn't know if she would be lucky enough to eat those famous historical dishes in the future.

She picked up a piece of pork and placed it on the rice. The gravy immediately seeped into the rice. She took a bite and found the meat fragrant and not greasy. It was cooked just right and tender. She mixed the meat and rice evenly and put the whole thing into her mouth.

"Ran...Ran, Kes...it's so delicious!" Su Xiaoxiao praised it endlessly while eating.

When someone praised him, the cook was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

Song Li's mouth was full of oil. She looked at her sister and then at Su Xiaoxiao.

You really know how to make your sister happy~

"Sister, I have never eaten such delicious meat!"

At night, the stars twinkle.

Song Li looked at the bottle of medicine on the cabinet and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
