Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo

"Really?!" At first, Xu Feng was really afraid that his second sister was playing a prank on him. He had been scared by her tricks recently. He didn't expect that such disgusting-looking porridge could actually be delicious!

"Yeah." Jiang Yan nodded and recommended that he try it himself.

Xu Feng immediately stuffed the fried dough stick into his mouth and swallowed it in a few bites. Then he mixed a bowl of the same porridge. He tasted it carefully at the first bite. After eating it, he found that it was really fragrant and sweet, and it was no different from the one mixed with crab roe.

Xu Feng was immediately excited. He peeled a few more eggs and made a big bowl of egg yolk porridge. He ate it with fried dough sticks and found it tasted good. In the end, his stomach was bloated.

"Oh, I'm a little full." Xu Feng slumped in the chair after eating, while Xu Ning was eating dried fruits opposite him.

"Eat some plums to help digestion."

"No, second sister, the porridge is in my throat now, I have to hold my breath before I can speak."

"Who told you to eat so much? No one is competing with you for it." Xu Ning said with disdain.

"Isn't this new way of eating recommended by Sister Bu Er so delicious?"

"There are many other delicious ways to cook it. The egg yolk can also be used to stew prawns, which is really delicious!"

"Really? Then let's make prawns for lunch?"

"What are you thinking? This place is not near the sea, where can we get fresh prawns?"

"Yeah, then can't we make dried shrimps?"

"I haven't tried it. How about asking grandma to make a plate for lunch?"

"I think it's okay."

Xu Feng suddenly felt less full and pulled Xu Ning to go to the kitchen to find Old Lady Xu.

The weather was so cold and we were not allowed to go out, so everyone either stayed in their rooms, warmed themselves by the fire in the hall, or stayed in the kitchen.

When Xu Ning and Xu Feng arrived at the kitchen, they found that Old Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Zhang were already discussing what to eat for lunch.

The servants' meals were also prepared together, and the quantity needed to be prepared more. After half an hour, Old Lady Xu and Zhang brought people to the kitchen to prepare.

The servants would prepare the ingredients, and someone would keep the fire burning. All Old Lady Xu and Zhang would do was cook the dishes or give orders from the side.

The Xu family’s kitchen was not big, and it seemed even more crowded when Xu Ning and Xu Feng came in.

"Why are you two running in here? Make way, there's a bunch of people blocking the way."

"Grandma, we want to cook something delicious too."

"There's no place for you here. If you want to eat, go to the kitchen next door." Old Mrs. Xu waved her hand to send them away. The main reason was that Xu Ning said she was the one who cooked, but in fact she was ordering others to cook.

Either the food she cooked was not tasty, or some of the cooking was a bit wasteful, like the mooncakes she made before going ashore.

Old Mrs. Xu was afraid that she would waste the food she had prepared, so she decided to let her go next door.

The kitchen in Li the Hunter's original house was big enough, and they kept a fire burning there every day, mainly for boiling water. It was also clean, so they could just move the raw materials they needed over there.

Xu Ning asked where the rice, flour and seasonings were, and ordered a pound of dried shrimps and a dozen eggs.

Xu Ning still wanted to take Zhang away, after all, Zhang's cooking skills were excellent. Unfortunately, Old Lady Xu said that she still had to rely on Zhang to help with the lunch dishes, so Xu Ning had to settle for the next best thing and find Nineteen.

Nineteen is a treasure girl. She can fight, cook in the kitchen and entertain guests, but she can eat a little. Xu Ning is mainly worried that the food he makes may not be enough for her alone.

"Xiaobao, call Jiang Yi and the others to come with us. Let's make more. We have more people, so we won't be afraid of not being able to finish the food."

After Xu Ning finished making the arrangements, he asked Nineteen to go back to the Xu family's kitchen and bring back five pounds of dried shrimps and a basket of eggs.

The eggs were all boiled, the yolks were scooped out with a spoon, and the egg whites were cut into petal shapes and arranged on plates, making several large plates of cold dishes.

The dried shrimps were soaked in hot water for an hour. While waiting for the hot water to soak, Xu Ning began to study how to make snacks such as French fries and fried chicken.

Xu Ning was directing all of this, and Nineteen did everything according to Xu Ning's instructions.

In fact, many snacks have been arranged by Xu Ning to be produced in Happy Valley. Everyone has eaten them, but no matter how much they eat, they all think that the ones made by Xu's family are the most delicious.

At lunchtime, Xu Ning brought a plate of steaming dried shrimps braised in egg yolk. The dried shrimps had been soaked to soften, and the shelled shrimps were covered with egg yolk. The first bite was full of the rich aroma of egg yolk, followed by the fragrance and sweetness of the shrimps. The shrimps were firm and chewy, and the more you ate, the more delicious they became.

The braised shrimp with egg yolk received unanimous praise.

Finally, because of lunch, French fries were used as afternoon snacks, most of which were fed by Xu Ning to the hard-working Nineteen.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day before New Year's Eve. Xu Ning and his friends studied food or played new games from time to time every day and didn't feel bored. Even Xu Feng didn't make a fuss about going out to play.

Jiang Yan has also joined in the fun several times, and now Xu Feng dares to put his arm around his shoulders and chat with him like a brother.

The Chinese New Year was approaching and the weather was very good. The snow had completely melted on the day before New Year's Eve. Xu Xiaohu came over early in the morning and asked Xu Da if he wanted to go up the mountain to catch some fresh meat.

Xu Xiaohu didn't know what was happening on the other side of the border, and he planned to sell some of the prey he caught in town if the weather was good.

Xu Da couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he went to find Old Lady Xu. It happened that Old Lady Xu was talking to Jiang Yi. After hearing Xu Da's concerns, Jiang Yi asked Jiang Yan for instructions and personally accompanied Xu Da and Xu Xiaohu on the trip.

With Jiang Yi around, hunting became an easy task. In just half a day, the prey caught by the three of them had piled up into a small mountain.

Xu Xiaohu was very happy. After discussing with Xu Dajiang, he kept a few of them to eat at home and prepared to sell the rest in the city.

The Xu family had many people in their family and did not plan to sell it. Originally, he planned to buy the piece from Xu Xiaohu, but unfortunately Xu Xiaohu said that he had promised an old customer in the city a long time ago that if he caught any prey before the New Year, he would send it to him.

"Brother Dayong, this old customer has helped me many times. I promised him before, and I have to keep my word."

"Okay, then you must be careful on the road. I will tell Auntie when I get back."

"Okay, thank you Brother Dayong!" Xu Xiaohu was very grateful. He got a great deal by getting so many prey this time. He planned to buy some snacks in the city and bring them back for Xu Ning and the others.

Xu Da had no choice but to watch Xu Xiaohu walk away with the backpack on his back.

"Bao, has there been any special situation nearby recently?" Xu Er has not appeared since the last time they met in the city. Also, the treasure chest at the beginning revealed that there is instability on the border, and I don't know if those barbarians have really sneaked into Qin County.

"Hello, player. Xu Er and his family have been staying at home recently. As for the barbarians from the border, they have already arrived in Qin County. They are trying to get news about you from the people in the county."

"what?!"
