After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive
Chapter 24 Who was rescued again?
In fact, Yun Jing misunderstood. Li Qingqing's current internal strength was not enough to last for too long. It was just enough for her to carry the wild boar from the back mountain to her home.
It is afternoon now, and there are still three or four villagers pulling weeds in the fields.
She asked Yun Jing to stay in the back mountain for a while because she didn't want the villagers to see her walking with another man. She was too tired to explain.
Li Qingqing carried the wild boar all the way down the mountain and headed straight for the Zhou family.
At home, Zhou Yimo was copying books in the study, while his mother was resting.
Da Shuang, Xiao Shuang and Xier were pulling weeds in the vegetable garden behind the house, and their laughter could be faintly heard.
Li Qingqing put the wild boar on the ground in front of the house and went to find Zhou Yimo.
"I am back!"
As soon as he heard the sound, Zhou Yimo immediately looked up at the door, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
finally come back!
Zhou Yimo's heart finally settled down. He quickly walked out of the study and went to meet Li Qingqing.
"Madam, I left some food for you. It's still hot. Can I bring it to you?"
"No hurry!" Li Qingqing stopped him, "I rescued someone and he's still in the back mountain. Go and bring him down!"
Zhou Yimo: ...
Who was rescued again? The big one or the small one?
If I stay up late to copy books starting tonight, will the money I earn be enough to support one more person?
"Don't worry, he will give the money!" Li Qingqing wanted to laugh when she saw Zhou Yimo's slightly nervous expression.
She simply told Zhou Yimo about Yun Jing's situation, and Zhou Yimo had no choice but to walk out the door.
As soon as he reached the door, he was almost scared to death.
I saw a fat and round black wild boar lying in front of the house!
"Mom... Madam, you're back after hunting the wild boar?!" Zhou Yimo was shocked.
Didn’t you say you were only going to hunt small prey?
Zhou Yimo quickly turned around and carefully checked Li Qingqing. Seeing that she was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, this wild boar should be enough for tomorrow's banquet." Li Qingqing smiled and urged:
"Go and fetch them quickly. We need someone to kill the pig later!"
Zhou Yimo had no choice but to hurry to the back mountain to look for someone.
Da Shuang, Xiao Shuang and Xier from behind the house heard the sound and knew that Li Qingqing had returned, so they quickly ran out with a smile.
"Miss!"
"Sister, you're back!"
The three little ones rushed to call Li Qingqing. Xier was now familiar with Dashuang and Xiaoshuang, so she followed them and called her "Big Sister".
"Sister, look, this is what I just found in the vegetable garden!" Xier ran to Li Qingqing proudly.
He held up a fist-sized emerald ball and gestured to Li Qingqing, "Look, does this look like an emerald ball?"
Li Qingqing took a closer look. Oh my goodness! Isn't this the pumpkin she couldn't bear to eat that day?
Li Qingqing looked at Xier helplessly. Could this child's family be very rich?
"Sister Xier, this is a pumpkin, you can eat it!" Dashuang stretched out his hand and wanted to grab it to take a look.
"Can this be eaten?" Xier's curious voice continued to sound behind her.
Li Qingqing had already quickly run towards the pumpkin vine in the vegetable garden, wanting to see if the remaining pumpkins were still there.
When she found the pumpkin vine, she discovered that it had been turned over to the side, with two smaller pumpkins growing on it.
Li Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and was about to tidy up the turned-over pumpkin vine, but when she lifted it up, she found that the pumpkin vine was torn!
Li Qingqing: ...
Tonight's dinner is settled: stir-fried pumpkin shreds and rice porridge with pumpkin leaves!!
Li Qingqing put away the pumpkin and pumpkin leaves, and confiscated the pumpkin from Xier's hand.
Turned and walked towards the kitchen.
She hadn't eaten anything all morning and was a little hungry, but she wouldn't get angry with the child.
When they arrived at the kitchen, the rice and flour that Zhou Yimo had been asked to buy had already been bought, and some newly bought ginger and garlic were also on the table.
Li Qingqing opened the lid of the pot and saw a bowl of porridge and a large bowl of rabbit meat on the steamer.
Li Qingqing was a little touched. Zhou An was thoughtful enough to leave some food for her.
But there's no need to leave so much rabbit meat for her; a small bowl is enough for her.
While Li Qingqing was thinking, she picked up the bowl of porridge, picked up a small piece of rabbit meat and put it into her mouth.
In an instant, a salty and bitter taste quickly spread and filled the entire mouth.
She quickly spit out the rabbit meat.
Wow! Has the price of salt dropped in Qiushui Town? It's so salty!
No wonder they left her such a big bowl of rabbit meat. I guess no one else ate much of it! ?
Li Qingqing simply didn't want to eat anymore. She decided that the whole family would have early dinner today.
Li Qingqing called Dashuang to help light the fire, and she first washed the rice and cooked.
Then start washing the vegetables, pick and clean the pumpkin leaves, chop them into small pieces with a knife and put them in a large bowl for later use.
Cut three tender pumpkins of different sizes into shreds and set aside.
I also peeled a few garlic cloves and cut a small piece of ginger.
After completing these preparations, she began to pour the rabbit meat into the pot, add appropriate amount of water and boil it to blanch the rabbit meat again.
At this time, the pot for steaming rice began to overflow with fragrant rice soup. Li Qingqing took a bowl from the cupboard and scooped some rice soup into the bowl with a spatula. She would need it when making pumpkin leaves later.
After the rabbit meat is blanched, drain the water and scoop out the salty water in the pot.
Add oil to the pan again and start stir-frying the rabbit meat.
After Li Qingqing prepared a table of food, Zhou Yimo also took Yun Jing back.
Because there were outsiders present, they ate in the main hall, and Li Qingqing brought her mother Zhou's meal to her room alone.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much, especially Xier, who complained to Li Qingqing that if she didn't come back, she would starve to death.
Zhou Yimo blushed a little: He just accidentally added a little more salt, it's not that exaggerated.
After dinner, Li Qingqing and Zhou An discussed how to explain if someone asked about Yun Jing.
The population movement in Dayuan State is strictly managed. If there are outsiders in the village, they will inevitably ask questions.
Zhou Yimo blinked, looked at Yun Jing, and after a moment of thought, he said, "If outsiders come, we can say that Yun Jing is a relative from my mother's side of the family and our cousin."
"Okay!" Li Qingqing thought this was a good idea.
Yun Jing said nothing, indicating his agreement.
"How will you explain if someone asks about Xier?" Li Qingqing asked again.
Zhou Yimo looked at Xier. When Xier heard that he was talking about her, she quickly opened her big eyes and stared at Zhou Yimo closely.
"If outsiders ask, just say Yun Jing is Xier's father." Zhou An continued.
"No! He is not my father!" Xier was unhappy when she heard that. How could she be given a father casually?
"It's fake, fake!" Li Qingqing coaxed her.
"Fake ones won't work either, he's so ugly!" Xier started making a fuss again.
"If you don't agree, I will send you back to Qiu Shui Town." Zhou Yimo threatened.
You called him "Dad" so smoothly before, why are you unhappy now?
"Xier, if you agree, I will make delicious food for you every day!" Li Qingqing had never taken care of a child before, and she didn't expect that this half-grown child would make such a big fuss.
Yun Jing: ...
I'm not even married yet!
You said this to my face, but did you ask for my consent?
In the end, Zhou Yimo and Li Qingqing used coaxing, deception and threats to finally get Xier to agree to the existence of a fake father.
Everyone agreed on the same story: because Zhou Yimo was getting married, the cousin hunted a wild boar to congratulate him. During the hunting process, the cousin was injured and the ivory card was lost.
Yun Jing: ...
Whatever you say is what it is.
Yun Jing didn't say a word throughout the whole process, just listened quietly.
After discussing this matter, Li Qingqing asked Zhou Yimo to find a butcher and ask him to help slaughter the pig early the next morning.
She cleaned Yun Jing's wound again, applied herbal medicine and bandaged it again, and asked him to go to the room to rest first.
