After the problem was resolved, Cao Yin left a dozen villagers to watch over the wildfire that had not been completely extinguished, and sent everyone else back.

After the people dispersed, Aunt Li and others hurried over.

"Ning girl, the Jiang family has so many good fields, what do you want these useless mountains for?"

"Well, thinking back, it's better to have firewood than nothing." Aunt Zhang said, "There are still so many trees on the mountain. Haha, your family won't have to worry about running out of firewood in the next few years."

"How about we help you build two more sheds this afternoon?"

"Thank you, Auntie. That's not necessary." Jiang Sining said, "The weather is good now, so we can just make do with whatever we have."

"Then let's go back first," Aunt Li asked, "By the way, do you still want the grass you mentioned?"

"of course yes."

"Okay, we'll go in the afternoon."

"Also," Jiang Sining said, "I want to ask the aunts to help me cut down trees. I will provide meals and pay the wages."

The aunts were so happy to see that not only was the grass-cutting job not in vain, but they could also help with tree-cutting.

"I don't need wages, just meals."

After the aunts left, only Jiang Sining's family of four were left on the hillside.

There were still wisps of green smoke rising sporadically in the woods.

But the open flames are almost gone and will soon be extinguished.

"Sister, what should we do now?" Jiang Yan looked at the shack that had been reduced to ashes and sighed, "We worked so hard to build this. It's a pity to burn it down."

"What's so regrettable?" Jiang Sining pointed at the large forest in front of him and said, "Two straw huts in exchange for so much forest, don't you think you've lost out?"

When Jiang Yan heard this, he immediately became happy again: "Not a loss, not at all. From now on, we are also a family with a mountain! Hehehe..."

"Go wash your face quickly, you've turned into a tabby cat."

Jiang Yan took Qianqian to the stream at the foot of the mountain to wash her face, while Jiang Sining started to make lunch.

Si Chenan had no shelter to lie in, so he could only sit quietly aside, looking at Jiang Sining with his black pupils.

He realized that he had underestimated this young lady before.

She handled today's incident so beautifully.

Even if Qingyu, the most skilled among the secret guards, came, he might not be able to handle the situation so brilliantly.

"Miss."

"what's up?"

"I dare to ask," Si Chen An said, "how did you come up with such a brilliant plan?"

"It's just a trick of the enemy being tricked," Jiang Sining said, "at most it's a bit of a self-torture tactic, then playing hard to get, and finally taking advantage of the situation to rob. It doesn't seem that clever, right?"

Si Chenan:......

Three of the Thirty-Six Strategies were used, and they were connected seamlessly!

If this isn't clever, then tell me, what kind of strategy is clever?

By the way, my wife grew up in the Jiang family and probably has never been to school.

So how did she know the art of war?

I can’t see through it. I really can’t see through it.

Jiang Sining didn't know that Si Chenan wanted to see through her completely, and she concentrated on making lunch.

Although Xia Shan is only 15 years old, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and has a very strong physique. I believe he also has a big appetite.

Besides, the acquisition of the mountain forest was worth celebrating, so she decided to make a grand feast.

First, I cooked a bowl of braised pork, then boiled two pig ears in water and mixed them with cucumbers to make red oil ear slices. I also took a tomato and made tomato and egg soup.

She hadn't seen any tomatoes for sale at the market in Gaochuan County, and no one in the village grew them, so she didn't know if there were any tomatoes in the world.

If not, after you finish the few in the refrigerator, you will have to grow your own to have something to eat.

She doesn't like steamed buns very much, so her staple food is still white rice.

Of course, I didn’t forget to cook rice porridge for Si Chenan.

This poor guy, he had to look at their delicious food while he could only drink porridge. I don’t know if he would become mentally unbalanced.

The meal took nearly two hours, and by the time she had laid it out on a large rock, she was nearly fainting from the heat.

"Jiang Yan, Qianqian, wash your hands and eat."

"coming!"

The two little guys ran over quickly, picked up the bowls impatiently, and were about to raise their chopsticks to pick up some food when they suddenly put them down again.

"Little sister, eat later," Jiang Yan leaned close to Qianqian's ear and whispered, "Tell that guy to come over too."

"Yeah!" Qianqian turned around and said to Si Chenan obediently, "Brother-in-law, come here and have dinner!"

"coming."

Si Chenan leaned on a wooden stick and moved step by step.

Seeing that he was walking like a turtle, Jiang Sining went over and held his arm. Suddenly, a fresh fragrance filled his nose, which made Si Chenan slightly stunned.

Can a lady who is sweating all over smell so good?

"What are you doing standing around? Let's go."

"Ahem," Si Chenan came back to his senses. He felt a little uneasy for some reason. His heartstrings seemed to be randomly plucked by an invisible hand. His usually stable mood was slightly confused at this moment. "Thank...thank you, my lady."

Jiang Sining frowned and looked at him. Judging from his performance today, this guy should be as thick-skinned as the corner of a city wall. Why did he suddenly blush?

Could it be that the condition has worsened and the fever has started again?

So she reached out and touched his forehead, but it was cold, which was a bit strange.

So he asked, "Why is your face so red?"

When she asked him this, Si Chenan became even more embarrassed. "It's a bit hot. I'm sweating."

Jiang Sining looked at him, helped him sit down in front of a big rock, and handed him a bowl of rice porridge: "You can only eat this now, you can't eat anything else."

"Thank you, madam."

Jiang Sining also picked up his bowl, only to find that no one had touched their chopsticks.

"Why don't you eat? Aren't you hungry?"

"Madam, have you forgotten again?" Si Chenan said, looking quite polite, "You are the head of the family now. We can't eat unless you pick up your chopsticks first."

"Big sister." Jiang Yan looked eagerly at the braised pork in the bowl, then looked at Jiang Si Ning, "Eat it quickly."

Qianqian also said: "Big sister, eat."

Jiang Sining sighed lightly and said, "So let her be the mistress."

A family must have a backbone. Now that her children are too small and too disabled, she is the only one who can shoulder this responsibility.

So she picked up some food and put it in her bowl, saying, "Okay, let's eat."

Jiang Yan chuckled and immediately reached his chopsticks into the bowl of braised pork. He first picked up a piece for Qianqian and then started eating it in big mouthfuls.

Si Chenan also picked up the bowl of porridge and took a small sip.

The aroma of the food drifted away with the wind, and Xia Shan, who was hiding in the distance, was very anxious.

He didn't expect that his wife could cook so well. Her food was even more delicious than that of the chef in the general's mansion. It made his mouth water, but he could only watch.

God can testify to this, what a torture this is!

He did a lot of things today, collecting tea seeds, picking firewood, chopping trees... He was so hungry that his stomach was sticking to his back.

I hope the young lady hasn't forgotten him and could leave some soup for him to go with his rice.

Forget it, I won’t watch it anymore. The more I watch, the hungrier I get.

Xia Shan leaned his head on the cloth bag of tea seeds, ready to pretend he didn't see it, but not long after, the aroma of the food seemed to become even stronger, so strong that it seemed like it was right in front of his nose.

Just as he was about to find something to plug his nose, a voice rang out beside him: "Eat."

Xia Shan opened his eyes and saw the young lady coming towards him at some point, holding a steaming meal and a small bowl of egg drop soup in her hands!

"Thank you, madam!"

Xia Shan quickly stood up and took the food, feeling inexplicably moved.

After cleaning up the dishes, it was already the hottest time of the day.

All the leaves in the mountains were burned, and there was not even a place to hide in the shade. Jiang Sining supported Si Chenan and walked for a while, then went to rest in someone else's forest.

After a short nap, Grandpa Wu came back carrying a few large jars.

More than 15 kilograms of tea seeds can be used to produce 11 kilograms of tea seed oil. In a world where productivity is underdeveloped, an oil yield of % is considered acceptable.

With tea seed oil and herbs, the production of cooling oil and wind oil can be put on the agenda.
