Confiscated the property and exiled? I emptied the warehouse and fled the famine.

Sure enough, Ruan Yunsheng was surprised to find that there were water hyacinths in this river. Most people think that water hyacinths are inedible, but in fact, not only the flowers and rhizomes of water hyacinths are edible, but the roots of water hyacinths can also be used in traditional Chinese medicine to clear the lungs and relieve asthma, promote diuresis and reduce swelling, and relieve blood stasis and pain.

She hadn't eaten any green vegetables for several days and couldn't even defecate. Ruan Yunsheng decisively pulled up a piece of water hyacinth and threw it directly onto the shore. When she saw that there were almost enough water hyacinths on the shore, she continued to catch fish with everyone.

This time, with the experience from last time and Ruan Yunsheng's skills, everyone quickly harvested a lot of things. Looking at the full loads of food on the shore, Ruan Yunsheng called everyone to go ashore.

Looking at the fish piled up like a mountain, Ruan Yunsheng had a new idea. They would definitely not be able to finish eating all these fish, so it would be better to make them into dried fish. However, dried fish need to be fried. It would be easy for her to get the oil from the space, but how could she explain to everyone where the oil came from?

"Miss Ruan, do you want some oil? We brought some oil here before and hid it well so it wasn't taken away when we were in Heiling Village."

Ever since Lu Zhizhou and Pei Yan became brothers, he changed his way of addressing Ruan Yunsheng. When Ruan Yunsheng heard that Pei Yan had oil, a hint of cunning flashed across her eyes. She was still racking her brains on how to get some oil, and then someone came to help her solve the problem.

"Yes, more, Brother Pei. I was just having trouble with the oil issue. I think we can't finish all the fish, so we might as well make them into small dried fish and keep them with us for easy eating on the road. It just so happens that you have oil here."

In fact, Pei Yan also had selfish motives. He gave the oil to Ruan Yunsheng because the food Ruan Yunsheng cooked was so delicious.

"Why are you being so polite to me, big brother? I'll have someone bring it to you right away."

Having said that, Pei Yan walked away grinning. When Lu Zhizhou came over, he saw Pei Yan and Ruan Yunsheng laughing and joking, and for a moment he became jealous.

"What did you say to Brother Pei? You look so happy."

Ruan Yunsheng looked at Lu Zhizhou's frowning face and chuckled, "Want to know? I won't tell you."

Ruan Yunsheng walked to the river to clean the water hyacinths she had just thrown up. While Ruan Yunsheng and Pei Yan were talking, the others took the fish and cleaned them by the river. Lu Zhizhou looked at Ruan Yunsheng's back and smiled dotingly, then followed her.

"let me help you."

Lu Zhizhou imitated Ruan Yunsheng in cleaning the water hyacinth, "What is this?" The more Lu Zhizhou handled it, the more he felt that this thing looked like a weed.

"This is called water hyacinth. Its rhizomes and leaves are edible. I haven't eaten any vegetables on this trip. The last time I ate was when I was at the inn. I haven't pooped in a few days."

Lu Zhizhou blushed, "Shengsheng, don't say such vulgar words."

Although those masters said this kind of thing a lot when he was marching and fighting, Lu Zhizhou still felt that it was a little inappropriate when it came from Ruan Yunsheng's mouth.

"What should I say then, go to the toilet?"

Ruan Yunsheng found it amusing to see Lu Zhizhou's increasingly rosy face. He was obviously an old man who had already had close contact with her, yet he was still pretending to be innocent.

"Okay, Shengsheng, let's hurry up and get these water hyacinths done." Lu Zhizhou didn't want to continue talking about this with Ruan Yunsheng, so he had to change the subject.

"Sister-in-law Qi, what are you doing here? We have already dealt with the fish."

Lu Yunruo squatted between Lu Zhizhou and Ruan Yunsheng and looked at the things in their hands in confusion.

"The zucchini will be ready soon. Go and have them hang the fish up to dry. Then find a large tile or bluestone slab with depth so I can fry the fish later."

Lu Yunruo couldn't understand these things either, so he just went to find the things according to what Ruan Yunsheng said, "Okay, I'll go right away."

After Ruan Yunsheng and Lu Zhizhou finished dealing with the water hyacinths, they found that they were already grilling fish. However, they were not grilling fish like Ruan Yunsheng did last time. Instead, they burned a pile of firewood and grilled the fish one by one directly over the fire.

Ruan Yunsheng used a leaf to brush some oil on each fish, then took out his secret weapon from his arms and sprinkled some on each fish. The aroma instantly filled the air. Anyone who has eaten Ruan Yunsheng's grilled fish knows how fragrant this thing is, and their saliva was flowing at that moment.

"Okay, the fish is almost done, everyone eat first."

Ruan Yunsheng gave the grilled fish to Lu Yunruo and asked her to distribute it to everyone. She skewered the fish again and grilled it over the fire. Then she took the bluestone slab and a larger leaf that Lu Yunruo had found and went to the river to wash them. The surroundings here were desolate, unlike before, so it was not easy to find a bluestone slab. The most she could do was to fry it instead of deep-frying.

Lu Zhizhou walked to Ruan Yunsheng's side and took the bluestone from her hand, "I'll do it."

Ruan Yunsheng didn't let go, "I can do it myself, you help me light a fire, I don't know how to do that."

Ruan Yunsheng really couldn't learn how to make a fire, and she didn't want to learn it. Since Lu Zhizhou was with her, she didn't need to learn it.

"it is good."

"Oh, by the way, find some stones to pile up the firewood. Don't pile it higher than the stones. I'll put the bluestone slabs on top later."

"okay, I get it."

Lu Zhizhou built a firewood pile according to Ruan Yunsheng's request, and took some hay and put it on top of the firewood. When Ruan Yunsheng came over, the fire was already very big. Seeing Ruan Yunsheng coming, Lu Zhizhou took the bluestone slab from her hand and put it on the stone. He had reinforced the stone, so as long as he didn't touch it, there would be no problem putting the bluestone slab on it.

Ruan Yunsheng poured some oil on the bluestone slab and waited for the oil to heat up before frying her water hyacinth on it. She took out a large clean book page and put the dried fish on it. The oil splashed instantly, and Lu Zhizhou quickly hugged Ruan Yunsheng and used his back to block the oil for her.

"That's enough. Let me go. There are so many people watching us."

It would be fine if it were just the two of them, but now the place is full of people, and Lu Zhizhou's actions were so obvious that everyone was looking in their direction.

"I have nothing to fear when I protect my wife."

Ruan Yunsheng lowered her head and the curve of her lips showed her current mood. Then Lu Zhizhou was worried that Ruan Yunsheng would be splashed with oil, so he asked her to guide him how to operate it and didn't let her touch it anymore.

Ruan Yunsheng was happy and relaxed, giving instructions here while turning the fish over there, brushing it with oil and sprinkling it with cumin and chili powder.

Ruan Yunsheng took a fish and sat next to Lu Zhizhou. She tore a piece of meat from the fish and placed it next to Lu Zhizhou's mouth. Seeing this, Lu Zhizhou opened his mouth and held the piece of fish. His slightly cool thin lips touched Ruan Yunsheng's fingertips, and an electric current ran from her fingertips to her heart.

"Just enjoy the fish, why are you pretending to be angry?" Ruan Yunsheng tore off another piece of fish, blushed, and stuffed the fish meat into Lu Zhizhou's mouth.

"Hmm? What are you talking about, my lady? How can I not understand what you are talking about, my lady?"

There was a smile in Lu Zhizhou's eyes. He found that his young lady was very funny, especially when she was shy. This made him unable to help but tease her from time to time.

"Lu Zhizhou..."

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. You asked us to collect so much firewood because you were worried that the temperature would drop suddenly at night and we wouldn't be able to bear it."
