Once home.

Xie Lingai flew towards her like a little butterfly: "Sister, you are finally back!"

"Miss me?"

Xie Linghe hugged her gently and took out a big steamed bun: "Big meat bun, it smells so good, try it quickly."

"Wow!"

Xie Lingai was pleasantly surprised and took a bite: "Delicious~"

The next second, he handed it to Xie Linghe: "Big sister, you eat too."

Xie Linghe felt warm in his heart and shook his head: "Big sister has eaten, you can eat it."

She withdrew her hand: "Okay."

Xie Zhongji and the other two surrounded Xie Boyuan.

Xie Boyuan gave them the gifts without saying a word, and cheers immediately broke out.

Xie Shuze: "Ah! It's a folding fan, brother, how did you know I wanted this?"

Xie Jijun couldn't let go of the Cuju: "Brother, you are so awesome. You know what I want without me even telling you~"

Xie Zhongji held the pen with great care, and looked at Xie Boyuan with a look of jealousy, but more of admiration and worship.

……

Had lunch.

Everyone went back to their rooms for lunch break.

Xie Linghe got up early and fell asleep as soon as he got into bed.

get up.

Xie Boyuan was reading in the room.

The three brothers Xie Zhongji and Xie Lingai went to work in the fields. Xie Linghe checked the bamboo shoots drying outside and went up the mountain carrying a basket on his back.

Today, she plans to pick ferns and dry them into dried ferns.

There are many wild vegetables, and bracken is suitable for all ages. Its crisp taste is loved by everyone.

The mountains are covered with ferns in spring.

Xie Linghe only wanted the tenderest part, and it broke without even using any force.

It only took half an hour.

She picked enough to fill a basket.

Before going down the mountain, she walked towards the bamboo forest to see if the mousetrap had any catches.

My luck is average today.

There wasn't a single bamboo rat.

Xie Linghe sighed: "Sure enough, meat is not that easy to get~"

next moment.

She found a nest of wild duck eggs.

A smile flashed across his face, "As the ancients said, 'A lost horse in a storm may be a blessing in disguise.' They were right!"

"I haven't eaten wild duck eggs for a long time. I'll make some scrambled duck eggs with fern and some fern salad tonight."

Dinner is also available.

Xie Linghe was in a good mood. He carefully picked up the duck eggs and counted them. There were twelve in total.

Wild duck eggs are not big, but they are enough for a meal.

Come back home.

Put the duck eggs in the kitchen.

Then, she poured the bracken on the floor of the main house and went into the mountains again.

Three round trips.

Finally stopped.

Xie Linghe sat on the stool, breathing heavily, drinking hot water in small sips, looking at the ferns piled up like a small hill on the ground, his eyes full of satisfaction.

This is a paradise for hoarders.

There are about 400 kilograms of bracken here.

Thirty kilograms of bracken can produce one kilogram of dried bracken. It looks like a lot here, but after deducting the few kilograms to eat at night, there will only be thirteen kilograms left after drying.

But it can be eaten for a long time.

……

Rested for ten minutes.

Xie Linghe: "Xiao Xi, what time is it now?"

System: "Replying to the host, it is now 5:30 pm."

"Neither early nor late."

Xie Linghe pondered, "Then let's make dinner early today. I'll make some fern salad and fern scrambled eggs, which will be perfect for making porridge to go with it."

Get up.

I grabbed about five pounds of bracken and brought it into the kitchen.

Bracken is very tender and does not need to be processed in any way, just blanch it in water.

While waiting for the water to boil.

Xie Boyuan began to become restless again.

"System, are you there?"

Xie Linghe connected his mind to the secondary system and responded, "What is it?"

I saw.

Xie Boyuan sat at his desk, smiling sweetly as he said, "You promised me the other day that you would reward me with a miscellaneous book for completing my daily tasks. You're not going to let it go, are you?"

Xie Linghe was speechless.

She thought it was something important, but it turned out to be just this?

If I put this energy into studying, I would probably be able to pass the college entrance examination without cheating.

Xie Boyuan was anxious when he saw the system didn't respond for a long time, but he didn't dare to curse, so he flattered it with a fake smile: "I was wrong, the system knows everything about astronomy and geography, it's a supernatural being from outer space, so it naturally won't go back on its word, hehe~"

Xie Linghe: “…”

Didn't see it.

She: "Xiao Xi, give him a copy."

System: "Okay, host."

next moment.

"Ding!"

"The host completed the task yesterday and was rewarded with a copy of 'General Knowledge of Chinese Calligraphy'."

"It has been sent, please check it carefully."

Xie Boyuan was delighted at first, then stunned: "'General Knowledge of Chinese Calligraphy'? What kind of book is this? Why does the name sound so strange..."

I really want to read the storybook!

Humph, the fox’s tail can’t be hidden anymore, right?

While secretly complaining, Xie Linghe was also a little curious: "Xiao Xi, what is this book about?"

System: "This is a book about the evolution of Chinese calligraphy. It includes the great calligraphers in Chinese history and their representative works."

"That sounds great~"

Xie Linghe nodded, then asked worriedly, "But is this suitable for Xie Boyuan to read? This isn't Blue Star, this is a book."

System: "Host, don't worry. Although this is a book, it is based on Blue Star. Basically, all the famous people in history also exist here."

Xie Linghe understood: "Oh."

This book is a romance novel. Its world view is inherently imperfect and can only be improved by the world itself.

Then she would be relieved.

At this time.

Xie Boyuan flipped through a few pages and protested, "What is this?! This isn't the book I want!"

Xie Linghe: "This storybook is a banned book. The host is not allowed to read it."

"This is a biography. If the host doesn't like it, he can choose to return it."

"Do you want to return it?"

"three two……"

Xie Boyuan quickly hugged the book tightly in his arms and shouted, "No, I won't return it!"

Biographies are just biographies.

It’s better than reading those boring Four Books and Five Classics, right?

Xie Linghe fell silent.

Xie Boyuan breathed a sigh of relief, sat back at his desk, and began to flip through "General Knowledge of Chinese Calligraphy".

Xie Linghe disconnected.

Cook seriously.

Youshi (7pm).

Have dinner.

Xie Zhongji and the other two transformed into the Kua Kua Party.

Xie Zhongji: "Sister, you are amazing! You found some meat from the mountains again~"

Xie Shuze: "That's right."

Xie Jijun: "Chop the bracken and mix it with the duck egg liquid. Stir-fry them together in a pan. It's so delicious. The bracken is crispy and the eggs are fragrant and tender."

Xie Boyuan nodded in agreement.

My eldest sister's cooking skills are getting better and better~

After eating for a few days, he could no longer eat the food prepared by the school cook.

Xie Lingai nodded heavily: "Big sister is the best!"

Xie Linghe immediately responded: "As long as Xiaoai likes it."

Extremely double standards.

Xie Zhongji and the other three looked at each other, their faces full of helplessness.

……

after dinner.

Xie Boyuan washed up in a hurry and went into the house to read "General Knowledge of Chinese Calligraphy".

At first he looked down on them, but after taking a closer look, he was completely impressed by the calligraphy masters.

Wang Xizhi, Yan Zhenqing, Su Shi, Li Yu...

among them.

His favorite was Li Yu's Slender Gold style, which was elegant and graceful, and had a noble air.

Xie Boyuan murmured to himself: "If only I could also do the Slender Gold Body Style..."
