Traveling through time and encountering war, I took the whole village to escape famine

When Li Xiuxiu learned that she was going to invite Mr. Cheng for dinner in the evening, she asked someone to set up the three large pots she had brought from home.

A pot was used to steam buns. There were three steamers on the pot, one with pure white flour, and the other two with mixed flour. The flour was fermented before leaving at noon. The plan was to steam the two kinds of flour together, but in order to entertain guests in the evening, a separate pot of white flour steamed buns was steamed.

A pot of fragrant deer bone soup was boiled, and a pot of delicious head and trotters was braised. The aroma of the braised meat accompanied by the aroma of roasted meat wafted for miles.

Yun Duo thought, it’s a good thing this isn’t a deep mountain, otherwise the fragrance would definitely attract large wild animals.

The aroma of the barbecue made many children cry, and even the adults were drooling with greed. Many villagers had to stew the bacon of chicken and duck that they had saved for when they were on the road.

Even so, there were still some children crying and making a fuss, which led to a round of scolding and beating. This round of scolding and beating made the small lotus pond as lively as if a pot of boiling water had exploded.

Yun Duo had not expected that a simple barbecue would make so many little kids cry. She couldn't help but feel that this was not a very kind thing to do. At this moment, she regretted having this barbecue.

Yun Duo looked at the hundreds of skewers of meat that the children had prepared, each with six pieces of meat. The pieces of meat were also much larger than the lamb skewers sold on the market today. She called Yun Xiang, who was helping her, and said softly, "Brother Xiang, go tell Second Grandpa that our family will give a skewer of meat to all children under the age of twelve. When they hear the eldest brother blow the whistle, ask them to come and claim it. In addition, every household in Yunjia Village can come and claim a bowl of deer bone soup."

The village chiefs of Yunhe and Chujia villages were arranging people to patrol and dividing the patrol areas. After what happened at noon, every household with an adult male sent one person to join the patrol team. Even the families from outside the two villages who followed along sent people to join the patrol team temporarily.

After making all the arrangements and just when they were about to disperse, they saw Yunxiang running over. He looked up at Yunxiang and after Yunxiang finished speaking, Yunhe laughed heartily, "Your sister is worried about those little ones. She's afraid that if they cry again, they'll get spanked by the adults."

The head of Chujia Village said to the patrol team members who had not yet disbanded: "Duo'er is such a beautiful and kind girl. She will be blessed in the future!" Others also echoed.

Village Chief Chu interrupted everyone's chatter and said, "Did you all hear that? Go back and tell your children that when you go to the Yun family to get the meat skewers, remember to tell them not to fight over them and to line up properly, okay?"

Everyone went home happily to tell their families about the good news. Even those who didn't have such a small baby at home went back happily to tell their neighbors about the baby.

The villagers of Yunjia Village were so happy that they went home and told their families that they would take their bowls to get the deer bone soup. They heard that deer bones were very nutritious. If the village chief's family hadn't given it to them, they might never have been able to drink such a good thing in their entire lives.

Yun Duo asked her eldest uncle to help build a barbecue stove with stones that was more than two meters long. She could grill hundreds of skewers at a time. Yun Duo had marinated the venison skewers in advance. The task of turning the skewers was given to the boys. After they were grilled, they were placed on a large lotus leaf, and Yun Ru and the girls sprinkled barbecue seasoning on them. Yun Duo prepared two kinds of barbecue seasoning, one spicy and one not spicy.

The children were all busy. Xiaoyun was so happy that he was drooling. His brothers and sisters kept him away from him because they were afraid that his saliva would drip onto the skewers.

As for the roasted whole lamb and roasted deer legs, everything was done according to Yun Duo's instructions. The already roasted meat was cut and placed on a plate, and the rest was spread with honey sauce and continued to be roasted.

Both adults and children were busy and having fun.

Old Madam Cheng was also invited to sit next to Old Man Cheng. On the road of escape, there was no need to be so particular. The maid Qiuju spread a cotton mat on the oilcloth for the old woman to sit on the ground.

Yun Qingsong came over with Li Xiuxiu and the four children, then knelt respectfully in front of the Cheng couple and said sincerely: "Song, bring your wife and four children to pay your respects to the teacher and the teacher's wife."

"Disciple's wife Li pays homage to the teacher and greets the master's wife." Li Xiuxiu said immediately.

Yun Chenyang, Yun Chenxi, Yun Duo, and Yun Chenxing said in unison.

"Disciple"

"Yun Chenyang"

"Cloud Morning and Evening"

"Clouds"

"Cloud Morning Star"

"Meet the Grandmaster; Meet the Grandmother,"

The old lady said kindly: "Get up quickly, we should keep things simple outside, there is no need to perform such grand ceremony."

After saying that, he stood up and helped Yun Qingsong and his wife up.

Old Lady Cheng was also stunned for a moment when she saw Li Xiuxiu's appearance, then she held Li Xiuxiu's hand tightly and asked in a gentle voice: "Is Li a local? Old Shen thinks you look familiar, and you look like the daughter of my old sister."

Old Lady Cheng thought to herself, "Why does this disciple's daughter-in-law look so much like the lost daughter of my old sister? Or maybe they just look a little bit alike. That child knows Old Shen and my master. Even if they haven't seen each other for almost 20 years, she shouldn't see us as such a stranger."

Li Xiuxiu replied, "In reply to Master's wife, Xiuxiu is not a local. She fell off a cliff and was picked up by my husband. My father-in-law helped me heal my wounds. Since I lost my memory and didn't know where my home was, and I fell in love with my husband, I stayed and married him. I thought that if I had a chance to recover my memory in the future, I would look for my family. Unexpectedly, seventeen years have passed and my memory has not been restored. There is no way to find my family."

After listening to Li Xiuxiu's words, Old Lady Cheng became more certain of her guess. She held Li Xiuxiu's hand and trembled with excitement: "Master, take a look at this child and see if he looks like Jinxiu."

Cheng Zhiyuan thought for a moment, "I also feel that this child looks familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen her. After Madam's suggestion, I also feel that this child looks exactly like Jinxiu. If that girl is still alive, she would be about thirty-four or thirty-five years old! Disciple's wife? How did you know her surname and maiden name when you lost your memory?"

Old Cheng still asked about his doubts. His old friend had been looking for his lost daughter for many years. Now that there was a clue, he must help his old friend find out clearly, so as not to be disappointed.
