The rural doctor bought a husband who was very treacherous
Chapter 63 Exploring the Valley
After the stove was set up, the women began to work at the stove, preparing lunch.
Su Tang led Su Nanxing and a few men to the valley again to fetch stream water for cooking.
"There is a stream in this valley. We have never discovered it before." A villager said in surprise.
The stream in the valley was not discovered by the villagers because the terrain here is so strange.
The source of the stream should be connected to the deep pool in the valley. Then it winds around in the valley and flows into a hidden stream, but suddenly turns into an underground river at the mouth of the valley. It is unknown where it flows to next.
"Well, we bought the mountain and came here for a stroll before discovering it." Su Nanxing explained to those people, but this was just his excuse to deal with everyone. This was also his first time in this valley.
Several people carried the water back to the simple stove, where a wooden shed to shelter from the rain had been built, and a wooden wall had been erected on the side where the wind blew.
"The water is here, just in time. I can wash the meat and then stew it." Aunt Zhang came over with a wooden basin, intending to scoop some water to wash today's meat and vegetables.
Today we have pork belly slices stewed with cabbage, and Su Tang brought a lot of seasonings.
Sun had already fried all the seasonings just now. The aroma had spread far away, distracting the people working nearby.
Many people came to take a look at the stove, just to see what was cooking here and smelled so good.
"Sun, what are you cooking that smells so good?" When farmers cook, they usually just cook until it's done; no one cares about the taste of the food.
At most they would add some salt, but that was only to give them strength to work in the fields the next day. Even so, because salt was expensive, they only added very little salt.
Normally, they would not even look at the seasonings that Su Tang bought, and no one would have thought that they could be used for cooking.
"It's just some Titian seasoning." Su Tang had already ground all these seasonings into granules. Now that they were brought up the mountain, no one could tell what they were, and they were all mixed together.
"Do you use this for cooking at home?"
"Yes." Sun greeted and served all the seasonings fried in the pot.
Aunt Zhang and the others have already prepared the meat and cabbage.
The wooden basin was filled with slices of white meat.
"I'll cook the dishes later." Aunt Zhang put down the wooden basin containing the meat and wiped the water on her hands on her clothes.
The eldest and second daughters-in-law of the village chief have already washed the brown rice. Today, they built two stoves to cook rice first and then stir-fry the vegetables.
Soon, the food was ready. The villagers who had been waiting for the whole morning heard the village chief shout that it was time to eat, and they all gathered around the stove.
"Everyone line up, don't stand there like you haven't eaten before, line up, line up." The village chief was standing next to the stove. He was close to the pot and could smell the aroma of the stewed meat and he was so greedy.
But as a village chief, he still tried his best to maintain order.
"Oh, village chief, you are right. We have never eaten such delicious food. I didn't have the energy to work just now after smelling the fragrance of the food." The man at the front of the line wiped the branch in his hand and swallowed his saliva cooperatively.
"Haha, you are really good at talking." Village chief Liu glanced at the man. He could run so fast and be in the front, but he still said that he didn't have the strength.
When Sun lifted the wooden lid on the food, the aroma of the food instantly filled the entire valley.
In order to prepare this meal for everyone, the Su family made a lot of preparations. They bought nearly a hundred ceramic bowls alone, and several villagers helped carry these bowls up the mountain.
Sun filled the first bowl and handed it to the village chief.
The next one came was Old Man Su. After the two of them walked aside with their bowls, the villagers who were queuing up came next.
A large bowl of brown rice, topped with Su's pork belly slices stewed with cabbage and spices.
The man at the front of the line took the bowl, walked carefully to a nearby place, squatted down, picked up the branch he had just rubbed, and started eating.
"Hmm, it smells so good!" The man couldn't help but start praising her before he even swallowed a mouthful of food.
Then, he started to talk without saying a word, shoveling rice into his mouth fiercely, looking like he hadn't eaten for a long time.
"You know what, the food you cook tastes really good. No wonder these people are silent." Village Chief Liu ate half a bowl of rice before he started talking to Old Man Su beside him.
Everyone ate the meal very quickly and finished today's lunch in no time.
After the meal, everyone rested for a while and then started working again.
It was not until the sky gradually darkened that everyone returned down the mountain.
The periphery and entrance of the valley have been cleared today. As for the big rocks at the entrance of the valley, Su Tang did not let everyone go through the trouble of clearing them.
Su Tang discovered that the big rock was connected to the mountain below, so there was no need to chisel it further. It could serve as a natural barrier at the entrance to the valley.
The next few days.
People who came to help with the work would gather behind the Su family's yard early every day.
Although everyone is tired every day, they still look forward to lunch.
After checking the number of people, the village chief also followed them up the mountain.
The village chief's wife also advised him to rest at home every few days. After all, he was just helping to keep count and there was no need to run up the mountain every day.
But the village chief was also thinking about the Su family's lunch, so how could he not go? Even if he had to let his own son carry him, he would still follow them up the mountain every day.
On this day, everyone began to advance into the valley. Under the guidance of Old Man Su, they would turn over the land in some arable areas to facilitate farming in the spring of the following year.
"I'll go over there and take a look." Su Tang would look around the valley every day and plan what everyone would do tomorrow.
She is a woman, and if she directly tells the villagers what to do, some of these men will definitely not accept it.
Therefore, Su Tang had to look at the terrain first and then tell Old Man Su what to say tomorrow.
Su Tang has been wandering around the valley by herself these past few days. Old Man Su originally wanted to let Su Nanxing and the others follow her, but Su Tang was too stubborn and Old Man Su couldn't do anything about her.
Besides, Su Tang has returned safely these days.
There was only one exit from the valley, and they pushed forward from the exit. If there were any wild beasts in the mountains, they would have been scared out by so many people.
Su Tang was digging in the grass with a long stick. Although there were no wild animals, it would be troublesome if she was bitten by a poisonous snake.
After walking for a while, Su Tang came to a high ground.
At this time she had gone deep into the valley and could no longer hear the villagers' voices.
The reason we walked so far today was because Su Tang discovered a high slope here yesterday, and she wanted to see whether the geology here was soil or rock.
If there is rock underneath, it can be used to build a house later.
Someone must be left here to guard the medicinal fields.
"Shashasha..."
Suddenly, there was the sound of small stones rolling down in front, accompanied by the sound of branches being broken.
what's the situation?
