After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive

Yun Jing: Who said he wouldn't pay the consultation fee? Silence doesn't mean no payment!

Li Qingqing, who was completely unaware that she was taking advantage of others with such a clear conscience, had already finished hoeing a row of vegetable fields. She took out two sprouted sweet potatoes from the cloth bag and cut out the sprouting points of the sweet potatoes.

Just as she was about to start planting sweet potatoes, Zhou's mother sent Dashuang to call her, saying that it was Grandma Zhao from the village who was coming.

Li Qingqing had no choice but to put down the work in her hands and call Zhou Yimo to help plant the sweet potatoes in the soil.

Zhou Yimo readily agreed.

Li Qingqing came to Zhou's mother's room. Grandma Zhao was talking to Zhou's mother at the time. When she saw Li Qingqing come in, she greeted her with a smile.

Li Qingqing took a closer look. Oh wow, Grandma Zhao? She knew this person and remembered her clearly!

The last time the Zhou family hosted a banquet, she came with Zhou the matchmaker, and today she came to visit again with a basket of vegetables.

Li Qingqing greeted Grandma Zhao with a smile, and then she learned that Li Qingqing was seen by the villagers yesterday when she ran back carrying four pieces of cloth. When the news reached Grandma Zhao's ears, she took the initiative to come over and ask if she needed help.

When Li Qingqing learned that Grandma Zhao and her two daughters-in-law specialized in sewing clothes, her eyes lit up. She was worried that no one would make clothes!

"Grandma Zhao, my mother is not in good health, and I don't know how to sew very well. Could you please make some clothes for us? How would you like to calculate the wages?"

Li Qingqing took out four pieces of cloth while speaking, pointing at them and continued:

"All this fabric will be used to make clothes. Except for my husband's gown, which is indigo blue, you can use the other colors as you like to make shirts and trousers."

After hearing what Li Qingqing said, the wrinkles on Grandma Zhao's face bloomed.

She pondered for a moment, then said, "We are all from the same village, so I won't quote a price. Regardless of the size, I will charge you thirty-five coins for each piece of clothing. What do you think?"

Li Qingqing thought that the price was fair, so she looked at Zhou's mother.

Mother Zhou said to Li Qingqing, "Qingqing, please don't make my clothes. I can't get out of bed like this, so I don't need new clothes."

Mother Zhou felt bad about it. She was now sick in bed and could only do some small sewing jobs. She didn't have the ability to make clothes.

"Mom, you will get better! Let's ask Grandma Zhao to help!" Li Qingqing said to Zhou's mother with a smile.

Then he looked at Grandma Zhao and said, "It's settled, Grandma Zhao. When do you think we can start?"

"Ms. Zhou, look how filial your daughter-in-law is!"

Grandma Zhao was very happy to accept the job. "We can start now. I'll take your measurements first. Don't worry, the clothes we make are guaranteed to fit you well and look good."

Grandma Zhao was obviously well prepared. She took out a ruler, measured the size of each person in the family, and then left with four pieces of cloth.

Li Qingqing was very happy after she solved the problem of clothes.

Seeing that Zhou's mother seemed a little lost, he said to her, "Mom, if you have time, why don't you help me make a net bag."

Zhou's mother was worried that she couldn't even make clothes, and she was feeling a little depressed. Suddenly, she heard Li Qingqing assigning her a task. She couldn't help but feel happy and asked, "Okay, what net bag?"

Li Qingqing casually picked up some tattered clothes from the cabinet and said with a smile:

"We're almost getting new clothes, and I'd like you to make me a fishing net out of these rags. I see there are lots of small fish and shrimp by the river, so why not get some to try?"

Zhou's mother had never seen a net bag before, and she was a little confused.

Li Qingqing carefully explained the shape and function of the net bag to Zhou's mother. When Zhou's mother heard it, her eyes suddenly lit up. She felt that she could also contribute to the family, so she nodded and smiled, "Okay, okay, Qingqing, leave this matter to mother."

Li Qingqing was delighted to see that Zhou's mother was in much better spirits. She continued, "That's great, Mom. I'll go find some branches and tie them into a circle. You can help me sew the net bag onto the circle later."

Zhou's mother agreed with a smile on her face. She took the rag and began to sew it stitch by stitch.

Li Qingqing tied the branches into a circle, said something to Zhou's mother, and then continued to plant vegetables in the vegetable garden.

Seeing that Zhou Yimo had almost finished planting that row of sweet potatoes, Li Qingqing checked it over. It was good! The rows were straight and evenly spaced.

She was very satisfied and said to Zhou Yimo: "Not bad."

Zhou Yimo blushed a little but said nothing. The pit was already there, so he could still copy it.

After he finished helping Li Qingqing plant the sweet potatoes, he walked into the house. He still had to teach Xier and the other three to read later, so he got ready first.

Not long after, Zhou's mother finished making the fish net and Li Qingqing's vegetable garden was also hoeed.

Li Qingqing happily tied the net bag to a long tree pole, and a simple fishing tool was ready. She excitedly carried the fishing tool and a wooden bucket and walked towards the river.

There were some small fish swimming around on the river. Li Qingqing held up the net bag and tried it, but found that the cloth bag was too light and floated on the water and could not sink.

She thought about it, found a few small stones and threw them into the net. The net finally sank to the bottom of the water. She slowly moved the net towards the pile of small fish. The small fish followed the flow of water and swam towards the net involuntarily.

Seeing the small fish successfully enter the net bag, Li Qingqing suddenly lifted the tree trunk and lifted the net bag out of the water. After the river water quickly flowed out of the net bag, she saw that the net bag was filled with many lively small fish and shrimps, which were still twisting their bodies and struggling to escape.

Li Qingqing happily threw them into the wooden barrel and followed the same method. It didn't take long before she had prepared the quantity she needed.

She put the net bag aside, cleaned the small fish and shrimps with river water, and brought them back to the kitchen.

Li Qingqing came to the kitchen and started cooking lunch.

Mix small fish and shrimp with flour, pat them on the edge of the pan and fry them into golden shrimp cakes.

I also used the basket of vegetables that Zhao's grandmother brought over to stir-fry a large plate of garlic water spinach. I added fresh minced garlic to the water spinach and stir-fried it quickly with hot oil. The stir-fried water spinach was particularly delicious.

I also picked some vegetable leaves and made a bowl of vegetable egg drop soup.

Of course, I didn’t forget to make a bowl of rabbit meat that Xier, Dashuang and Xiaoshuang like to eat.

Xier was very happy. She finally ate a real cake. Although it was not filled with sesame, it tasted much better than the one with sesame filling.

After lunch, Li Qingqing told Zhou Yimo that she planned to build a bamboo fence around the open space in front of the house. Zhou Yimo agreed as well. Her two younger sisters were still young and it would be safer with a bamboo fence.

Seeing Zhou Yimo's agreement, Li Qingqing smiled and said, "I'll go cut bamboo this afternoon. I've already dug the vegetable patch, so I'll give you the vegetable seeds. Plant them soon. Whether our family can eat fresh vegetables depends on you!"

"Okay, my lady!" Zhou Yimo agreed and continued to clean up the dishes and wash them.

There is a large area of ​​dense wild bamboo on the back mountain of Lihua Village, which was discovered by Li Qingqing when she set the trap last time.

Although we don’t have the conditions to build a house at home now, it’s still okay to build a yard.

At this moment, Li Qingqing was busy felling the bamboo. After felling the bamboo, she removed the branches and leaves, leaving only the bamboo segments, and then threw them into the space. She was very skilled and strong, and by the evening, she had collected all the bamboo segments she needed.

But all these bamboo segments were in the space. Even if she was very strong, it was impossible for her to carry all the bamboo segments back home at once. Li Qingqing was a little worried. She didn't dare to let others know that she had a space on her body.

Li Qingqing had no choice but to chop some rattan, make a rope out of it, tie a bundle of bamboo strips together and throw it into the space. When she was almost home, she took the bundle of bamboo strips out of the space and put it on her back, pretending to have carried it down from the mountain.

When she came back, she found herself doing unnecessary things. There was no one outside the house, and Xier and the others were not playing outside. The door of the main room was half-open, and it was quiet outside the house.

Li Qingqing felt strange. How could Xier, who was always crazy, also have quiet moments?
