In the years of famine, in troubled times, the koi sweet wife is omnipotent

"We support you because of your change, not because we are greedy. You can't take this rice."

When Aunt Wang heard this, she immediately waved her hand to indicate that she refused.

"Second sister-in-law! We still have some food at home, you can keep this rice for your family!"

Gu Baozhu was even more embarrassed to ask for it.

Moreover, my sister-in-law's family has three children and a mother to support, which is much more difficult than her family.

"Host, host! Another mission has arrived. Give each of these villagers half a pound of pork. Each family will receive 10 points for their achievement."

At this moment, the system suddenly appeared and issued a task, which was exactly what Xia Wanwan had in mind.

"I'll take it."

After hearing this, Xia Wanwan laughed so hard that she could hardly close her mouth.

In fact, she didn't need the system to issue tasks. She was also prepared to give half a pound of pork to each family present.

"Just take it. I don't have anything extra, so I'll give each family ten pounds of rice and half a pound of pork!"

Xia Wanwan was very touched by everyone's actions. They were able to resist the temptation of rice in this hungry age.

You know, in order to avoid starvation, some people eat porridge soup all year round and dare not even think about eating white rice.

Not to mention meat, I wouldn't have a meal for a year or two. Most of the time I could only buy some pork skin, pickle it and dry it, and then I would only dare to cook it once a month or so.

"And pork?"

When everyone heard this, their mouths watered with greed.

Pork, that’s only during the Chinese New Year, when the whole family will buy about a pound of it as New Year’s goods.

Xia Wanwan watched everyone swallowing their saliva, covered her lips with her hands and chuckled, urging them, "Everyone, hurry home and get some food to pack up rice and meat. Gather in my yard tomorrow morning. I'll teach you how to catch fish in the river, so you don't have to worry about running out of meat."

"Fish? That thing is so fishy and disgusting, I can't even swallow it."

"Yes, Second Aunt, we've caught and cooked that thing before when we were hungry. Not only is the skin tough, but the smell is incredibly strong. Not only can you not swallow it, you'll actually vomit. You'll even vomit up the last bit of food in your stomach, which will only hasten your starvation and death."

Gu Baozhu was afraid that what she said would cause misunderstanding, so she quickly grabbed her hand and explained carefully.

Xia Wanwan smiled sweetly, patted her hands gently, and said softly, "That's because you're handling it incorrectly. Fish is actually a very delicious thing. After we catch the fish tomorrow, I'll teach you how to cook it so you can enjoy delicious fish. You can call other villagers. Anyone who wants to come can come, and those who don't want to come won't be forced."

"Are we doing something wrong?"

Everyone thought about it seriously and felt that there was nothing wrong with their approach.

Isn’t it just about washing the fish and frying it in a pan?

I have also tried boiling it in water.

The result is even more fishy.

"Of course. If you don't believe me, ask Huai Jin and my children. They have already eaten the fish I cooked."

When Xia Wanwan said this, she suddenly realized that the mother-in-law had not returned home yet. She tugged at Gu Huaijin's sleeve and asked, "Where's mother? It's almost dark, why hasn't she come back yet?"

"Mom went to the mountain to move corn. I just got back. She said she would come back after moving the last basket. I was just about to go out to pick her up when you came back. I have nothing to do now, so I went to pick up Mom."

Gu Huaijin was worried about his mother's safety and planned to run over quickly to pick her up.

He was afraid that his mother and daughter-in-law would be tired after he left, so he did his best to move the corn from the farthest hillside back home first.

"Mom is old, and it's getting darker now. I'm afraid it will be completely dark soon. You should hurry and bring her back now."

When Xia Wanwan heard what he said, she subconsciously glanced at the main room and saw that there was indeed a pile of corn. She immediately told him to go and pick up her mother.

When Gu Huaijin left, he didn't forget to tell everyone, "The fish my wife cooked is really delicious. I've never eaten such delicious fish in my life."

"Yes, the fish my mother cooks is delicious."

"And my mother discovered something called chili peppers. Cooking them with fish can eliminate a lot of the fishy smell. It's really delicious."

"On the first day I ate fish, I ate two big bowls of rice. If the rice hadn't run out, I would have eaten another bowl."

The three little guys started drooling when they mentioned how delicious the fish was.

When everyone heard this, they all went home happily, took the rice jars and baskets to divide the rice and meat.

After Xia Wanwan had made the distribution, only Gu Baozhu's was left. At this time, Gu Huaijin had already taken Tang Guifang back.

"Wanwan! Mom is going to cook."

When he saw Xia Wanwan come back and found that she was fine, and heard his son say on the way that she brought back more than a dozen people, he prepared to go to the kitchen to cook.

"Mom! Go cook the rice first and chop the meat. Huaijin and I will go to the back mountain to pick some wild peppers. We can cook after I come back."

After giving all the instructions, Xia Wanwan began to distribute rice to Gu Baozhu.

"Second sister-in-law! Ten kilograms of rice is enough, stop dividing it."

Seeing that she had no intention of stopping, Gu Baozhu quickly stopped her from going any further.

Xia Wanwan looked nonchalant and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the prescriptions my second sister-in-law sold in town this time earned her a full twenty taels of silver. She also bought two large bags of rice. One bag was distributed to the villagers, and this bag is for our two families to eat, so I'll give you a little more."

In fact, she bought more than two sacks of rice, but three sacks. In addition, Gu Baozhu had been supporting the children's lives before, so she had to give her more no matter what.

When she had been given 20 kilograms of meat, Gu Baozhu refused to let her get any more, and in the end she was given two more kilograms of meat.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. The reward points are fifty, and the current total points are 220."

After distributing rice and meat to Gu Baozhu, Xia Wanwan completed her task. After the system finished speaking, she returned to the bracelet to rest.

220 points?

Wouldn't that mean I can exchange it for three and a half hours of time to go to modern times?

If possible, tonight after everyone falls asleep, I will use my points to exchange for some time and go back to China first.

"By the way, Baozhu, our family has never really had a meal together. Don't cook when you go home tonight. Bring your mother-in-law and Dazhuang to my house for dinner."

After Xia Wanwan distributed rice and meat to Gu Baozhu, she thought of the ridiculous things the original owner had done over the years, and how her closest relatives had never even had a meal together, so she thought of inviting her sister-in-law and her family as well.

"You've already given me so much, so there's no need for dinner."

Gu Baozhu waved her hand, indicating that no one could take advantage of her family.

"You have to cook for so many people anyway. It's a rare occasion for you to have fun, so don't refuse. Try to taste your second sister-in-law's cooking skills."

Xia Wanwan patted her shoulder gently, took Gu Huaijin's hand, and hurried up the mountain to look for chili peppers before it got completely dark.

They were very fast and in about half an hour they arrived at the pepper tree on the mountain. There were many small pepper trees next to it, so they couldn't pick all the peppers.

A basket was quickly filled.

"With so many peppers, I think we can dig a few and plant them back in the village. Then you won't have to travel so far in the future."

Before leaving, Gu Huaijin prepared to pull a few pepper trees back and pick them in his own vegetable garden.

Xia Wanwan stopped him from pulling at the chili tree and whispered, "No need. Once it turns red and gets old, take out the seeds inside. When the season is right, spread them in the soil and they will grow on their own. Now is not the season for planting chili peppers. Even if you take the chili tree back, it won't survive."

"Who is there?"

Just as Xia Wanwan finished speaking, she suddenly felt two pairs of eyes staring at them from behind.

Gu Huaijin: "..."

Oops.

These two auras belong to him.

They are all top masters, how could this be discovered by my wife?
