She walked to the snack area and found it difficult to move her feet.

"Pickled chicken feet, beef jerky, spicy chips...Oh my god, they're all her favorites."

Saliva was secreted uncontrollably from her mouth and she kept swallowing it.

Suddenly her eyes lit up.

"Cola!"

Woohoo, I really want to drink.

Her throat was so dry that it felt like it was smoking and burning with pain.

She stretched out her hand, but she controlled herself and didn't buy it. She just touched the bottle of Coke.

She only had one chance to buy something today, and she had to buy something cheap and filling that wouldn't make the whole family suspicious.

Now she, Xiao Yunfei and their five children are a family, a whole. If one dies, all will die. They have to think more about everyone in everything.

So she made up her mind and walked to the vegetable area with the remaining 25 coppers.

Now she could only make sure that buying potatoes and sweet potatoes would not arouse suspicion.

Potatoes cost one copper coin per pound. Considering that she could only buy goods from the mall twice a day, she planned to buy more each time.

She wants to buy 10 kilograms.

Unexpectedly, the system prompted her that she could only trade a maximum of 3 kilograms of potatoes at a time.

The system limits the transaction amount, probably because it is afraid that people like her will take advantage of loopholes.

Fine.

She followed the rules, bought three pounds of potatoes, spent three copper coins, and had 3 copper coins left.

I have used up my shopping quota today.

She came back to reality and looked at the potatoes and the packed rabbit in her hands. After thinking it over, she decided to put the potatoes in the weeds next to the stone.

Let the children discover the potatoes themselves later, otherwise it would be difficult for her to explain.

Su Miaomiao hid the potatoes and carried the rabbit back to the cave.

The eldest brother was squatting on the ground, drilling wood to make a fire. When he saw her come back, he spoke.

"Mom, the fire has been lit."

The second child also raised his hand and said.

"Mom, the pit has been dug."

Su Miaomiao walked over and saw that everything was indeed done.

She couldn't help but praise these two young children for being so efficient in their work.

"You guys are awesome for getting it done so quickly."

As she spoke, she put the firewood picked up by her three youngest sons into the pit dug by the second son, and then brought the fire over.

The wood was dry and the fire started quickly.

She first roasted the rabbit over the fire.

This was her first time grilling food outdoors, but she was not at all nervous.

In her previous life, she went from elementary school to college. Although she spent most of her time in class, she watched videos frequently.

There are a wide variety of teaching videos on certain platforms.

Not only did she learn how to cook and embroider, she also learned how to farm and raise pigs...

She even learned how to operate an excavator and how to repair donkey hooves.

She loves to learn. She learns whatever she can find. What she learns is very diverse.

So even though she hasn't done many things, she knows a little bit about everything.

She is a person from the 21st century in the future world, but she is quite confident about living in ancient times.

Su Miaomiao set up the rabbit, then looked up at the three children who were still picking up firewood not far away, and pointed in the direction where she had hidden the potatoes before.

"Third brother, fourth brother, fifth brother, we have almost finished picking up all the dry branches over here. Go over there and pick up some more."

When the children heard this, they immediately responded and walked in the direction she pointed.

Seeing this, the eldest brother next to her looked at her secretly and asked timidly.

"Mom, do you need us for anything else? If not, we two can go collect firewood."

Su Miaomiao couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw her eldest daughter being so cautious.

She nodded.

"Go."

When the second brother saw that she agreed, his eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly raised his hand and said.

"Mom, I want to go too."

"Go ahead, you all go together, keep an eye on the brothers, just pick up the items around you, don't go too far."

"Ah."

Su Miaomiao looked at the two children who quickly slipped away from her and couldn't help but sigh.

She knew that the children would rather work than stay with her.

She watched the fire, and when it was almost lit, she set aside some red-hot charcoal and put the potatoes and sweet potatoes on it.

These potatoes and sweet potatoes have not been modified and are too small. The five of them put together are not enough to fill her teeth.

Thinking this, she covered the potatoes and sweet potatoes with another layer of charcoal.

As far as she could remember, she had seen a video blogger on a certain audio platform grilling like this before.

Look forward to seeing the results in a while.

Su Miaomiao secretly glanced at the children while grilling food.

At this moment, she saw the fourth and fifth brothers holding firewood in their arms, and they just walked to the place where she had hidden the potatoes just now.

"Wow! Mom, we found... um."

The fifth brother exclaimed, "I've found a treasure!" But before he could finish his words, his mouth was covered by the fourth brother.

"Shh, don't shout."

When he saw his third brother winking at him, he quickly shut his mouth.

Su Miaomiao saw this scene, and a hint of bitterness flashed in her eyes.

The original body always gave Ji Baiqing the good things at home, so it was normal that the children didn't want to tell her when they found something to eat.

Moreover, food was very precious during their exile, and the children were almost starving to death because of her. It would be foolish not to be more careful at such a life-and-death moment.

She didn't blame the kids, she just felt a little sad.

I don’t know when the children will be able to trust her.

Lao Wu shouted so loudly just now, she couldn't pretend not to hear him.

So she asked, straining her neck.

"what happened?"

The fourth and fifth brothers both shuddered, and then the fourth brother said.

"It's okay."

At this point, Su Miaomiao did not continue asking questions, but turned around and turned her back to the children to give them space.

When the fourth and fifth children saw that their stepmother had turned her back, they quickly ran over secretly to look for their older brothers and sisters.

"Big sister, come quickly, we found a treasure."

"What baby?"

"Hush, big sister, follow me."

Soon, the five siblings gathered together.

They were stunned when they saw the pile of potatoes on the ground.

The eldest sister covered her mouth in shock and dared not make a sound. She spoke before her younger brothers could scream.

"Hush, be quiet, and squat down."

After hearing this, the younger brothers shut up and squatted around a pile of potatoes on the ground.

The eldest sister is like a mother.

Their father was not at home for the past five years and their stepmother was not nice to them, so they had to rely on their eldest sister to take care of them.

It was the eldest sister who raised the four younger ones. She is their backbone and they trust her as much as they trust their father.

The eldest brother picked up a big potato, looked at it left and right, frowned and asked in disbelief.

"Is this a potato?"

The brothers nodded in unison.

“It looks like a potato, but it’s not.”

"This potato is too big. I have never seen such a big potato."

"Great! We found so many potatoes. Do we have something to eat?"

"Old Fifth, you think too much. No matter how much food there is, there is no share for us. Stepmother has to send it all to Ji Baiqing."

"I'm so hungry. I really want to eat potatoes."

The eldest sister watched her four younger brothers gulping down their saliva on the raw potatoes, and she couldn't help swallowing her saliva too.

She glanced at her stepmother not far away with some worry, then spoke in a low voice.

"If mother knew we found so many potatoes, she would definitely send them all to Ji Baiqing, so let's not tell her yet."

The eldest said this with tears in her eyes, she sniffed and said.

"Dad hasn't eaten for two days. Not only does he have to lead us on the road on an empty stomach, but he also has to look for food for us when we are resting. I want to save these potatoes for Dad. Do you agree?"
