The daily life of Yu Baibai's family after traveling through time

"Let's walk more today. Look at the dark clouds ahead. It's probably going to rain."

Qiao Qingfeng was holding a bowl, eating and talking to a few people.

Farmers like them don't have the rule of not talking while eating or sleeping.

Qiao Mu nodded and said, "I'll sew a few raincoats on the way. We don't have enough."

"There are two umbrellas in the oxcart in the forest over there. Take them out later. There's also some oil paper. I'll sew the oil paper inside the raincoat later to make it better."

"it is good."

"Don't lean over to listen, just eat."

Everyone in Yujia Village is now starting to eat and make breakfast.

Some of those who had finished eating seemed to be packing up.

They still had to travel a few days to reach the nearest registration place.

The path they took was the one suggested by Mr. Zhuge and Mr. Qiao.

Mr. Zhuge was afraid that the old man would not remember it, so he roughly drew a route.

As for Mr. Zhuge, he is still doing follow-up work in the city.

After dinner, Mr. Qiao studied a piece of tattered paper. The more he looked at it, the more his brows furrowed. Finally, he gave up and waved his hand:

"Yu Lao San! Come here!"

Yu Yaozu, who was feeding the mule at the side, was shocked. What happened to his father-in-law? It was the first time he saw him so angry.

Drop what you are holding and hurry over:

"Hey! What's wrong, Dad?"

Qiao Qingfeng pointed at the paper and said, "Come and take a look. This is the route Mr. Zhuge drew. Why can't I understand it?"

Yu Yaozu looked down: "..."

How can I tactfully tell my father-in-law that he held it the wrong way around?

Yu Yaozu scratched his head and said with a smile:

"Dad, you're holding this picture upside down."

He took the blueprint and turned it over: "Look, isn't it much clearer now?"

Qiao Qingfeng's old face flushed, and he muttered:

"I was wondering why I didn't understand it after reading it for so long."

He looked at the map carefully and nodded: "I'm not wrong, San'er, you have been smart since you were a child."

He patted the ox cart and tightened the rope tied to it:

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Everyone packed their luggage and continued on their journey.

The ox cart was shaking, but the road became smoother as it went forward, and it was obvious that someone was always taking care of it.

They followed the instructions on the map.

The scout team has also set out to explore the way.

It was not until around three o'clock in the afternoon that the scout team returned with sad faces.

Yu Yaozu, who was at the front, knew what had happened and asked quickly:

"What's wrong? What happened up ahead?"

The scout team came running over and replied:

"About a mile ahead, the bridge collapsed."

"make life difficult for?"

"The bridge is two or three meters long, and the river is rushing. We can't cross it, so we have to take a detour. I see someone is repairing it on the other side, so it will probably take two or three days."

Yu Goudan watched carefully and saw that some people on the opposite side wanted to come over, but when they saw that the bridge was broken, no one turned around and they all walked west along the river.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "I saw someone walking west along the river on the other side. Maybe they were going that way. There might be a way around it."

"What should we do? San'er, we'll listen to you!" Li Zheng was more inclined to take a detour.

Yu Yaozu lowered his head and opened the blueprint in his hand, taking a look at it: "Let's take a detour! Waiting here is not a good idea, it's really anxious."

"it is good!"

The aunts were all saying, "It's a good thing we came late. If we had come earlier, if the bridge had collapsed while we were walking on it, it would have been terrible."

"God loves fools!"

"Yes! Thank God!"

As he said this, he put his hands together and worshipped while sitting on the ox cart.

Yu Yaozu took a quick glance and then looked away.

The village head turned around and said to the scout team, "You guys are tired too. Let someone else go ahead and scout the way."

"Everyone else get in the car and continue on. We are on the main road now, and we can go a little further with the torches."

After walking around for five hours, it was around eight o'clock in the evening when we finally arrived at a stone bridge.

"I'm afraid the bridge is not strong enough. There are so many things in our car, and it might collapse again." Yu Yaozu said after getting out of the car and looking at the bridge.

The village head waved his hand: "One family after another, it's better to be safe."

"Is Baibai asleep?" Yu Yaozu looked back and asked Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu nodded: "She slept. She ate the roasted sweet potatoes her grandfather gave her at noon, drank some sugar water, and then fell asleep."

"Baibai has suffered so much. Put some more straw under her. This road is not easy to walk on. Don't let her bump into anything."

Sitting on this wobbly mule cart, you're almost shaken to pieces.

Qiao Mu stretched lazily: "Don't worry, your precious daughter can't bear it anymore. We've already taken the cushions off the sofa and put them underneath."

"My daughter is so smart!"

Yu Yaozu didn't think Yu Baibai was greedy for enjoyment at all, he was just a little envious. He was sitting on a wooden board, and his butt was almost broken from the pain.

However, Yu Yaozu was also very satisfied. After all, they still had a livestock to travel with. Other people who fled famine could not even get enough food, let alone livestock.

Well.

It seems that they don’t have much food left outside, so the important thing is to hurry into the city to get some food.

……

Fortunately, nothing went wrong and everyone crossed the bridge and decided to move forward.

After walking for an hour, we were all exhausted.

Everyone stopped to rest.

Qiumu was already rolling the dough in the car and didn't stop.

I worked for two hours and made a lot of steamed dumplings.

I also used the yeast powder that Yu Baibai brought out to make two large bowls of dough.

Just wait until it stops and steam it before eating.

It's late now and everyone is exhausted.

The aunts and sisters-in-law had been sitting all the way and were not very tired to begin with, so they were now busy preparing their own meals.

The children had already fallen into a deep sleep, just like Yu Baibai.

After the two brothers of the Qiao family set up the pot, Qiao Mu put seven or eight sweet potatoes into the pot, put a grate on it, put corn husks on top and then put the steamed dumplings in to prevent them from sticking.

Corn husks are very useful. You can just throw them away after use. Her daughter has a lot of them and she has kept them.

Qiao Sen looked at the plump steamed dumplings and was so greedy that he volunteered to help light the fire.

Steam in two pots together and it will be ready in one go.

Yu Yaozu was kneading the dough on the other side. After the dumplings were steamed, he could start steaming the buns.

I didn't eat any leavened buns along the way. I only ate hard and crusty flatbreads.

Yu Yaozu couldn't resist the thought of the soft and fragrant steamed buns made from leavened dough.

Yu Yaozu: I've been craving this for a long time! It would be even better if there was also stir-fried soybeans with fermented soybeans!

The steamed dumplings were ready in just over ten minutes.

Qiao Mu took the steamed dumplings out of the pot and put them on a wooden plate to dry.

Take out the sweet potatoes below, add some water, and put the prepared steamed bun dough in.

Start both pots at the same time and they will be ready in twenty minutes!

Qiao Mu took out three bowls of steamed dumplings and gave one to Qiao Lin first: "Go take it to the village head."

He took another bowl and gave it to Yu Yaozu: "This is for the old man."

Then, he took a bowl to Aunt Zhang.

After everyone came back, Qiao Qingfeng said, "Stop it, let's eat. We've been tired all day, let's just have some hot water and eat..."

“Steamed dumplings.”
