My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.
Chapter 22 Shared Hatred
That evening, after Ji Yunshuang and the others finished processing the mountain goods they had collected, they lit a fire as before and rested in the wild.
The next day, the group went into the forest to search for mountain products as usual.
This time, however, the Hu family did not go with Ji Yunshuang to search for mountain products.
When the Hu family returned home last night to sort through the mountain produce, they realized that the produce they had collected with Ji Yunshuang was less than what they had collected on their own in the mountains.
They felt that Ji Yunshuang treated the Mu and Zhou families more closely and did not give them special treatment, so they were quite dissatisfied with Ji Yunshuang.
In addition, Ji Yunshuang didn't find any wild yams yesterday, so after discussing it, the family decided not to go with Ji Yunshuang to look for mountain products today.
Ji Yunshuang was pleased that the Hu family wouldn't join them in searching for mountain goods.
Last night, Ji Yunshuang secretly entered the space and planted sweet potato seedlings in the black soil, creating a large area of sweet potatoes.
After growing overnight, the sweet potato seedlings planted in the black soil have already sprouted many vines.
The sweet potatoes that grew weren't very big, but mixed with the sweet potatoes in the warehouse, they could be mistaken for wild potatoes from the fields, which was enough.
Ji Yunshuang found a suitable spot and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, moved a few sweet potato plants from her spatial storage to the wasteland.
At the same time, he used his telekinesis to bury some sweet potatoes underground.
Then she called to Niu Dahua and the others, saying that she thought she had found wild potatoes.
When she called everyone over, she pretended to be excited and started digging in the surrounding soil, but no one noticed anything was wrong.
That day, everyone dug up a large bag of sweet potatoes and took it back, and everyone was very happy.
Seeing the things that Ji Yunshuang, Niu Dahua, and the others were carrying, Liu Shi and all the wives of the Sun family were green with envy.
The Hu family, on the other hand, were filled with deep regret.
They all regretted not going to look for mountain products with Ji Yunshuang today.
Sister-in-law Hu secretly nudged her sister-in-law's arm and whispered, "Go and say a nice word to Lu Erlang and ask him to bring you some wild potatoes."
Hu Chunjiao already looked down on Lu Wuzheng, this country bumpkin, and now she was being asked to act subservient to him? She had no intention of doing so.
She said, "We're not married yet, what kind of image would I project if I were to chase after her like this?"
Sister-in-law Hu was furious and secretly complained to her husband, "Look at your sister. It was one thing for her to be lazy and good-for-nothing in the village before, but now she's acting all high and mighty. Who does she think I'm doing this for? I'm doing this for the whole family."
Brother Hu regretted not trying to dissuade his wife last night when she said she wouldn't go with Ji Yunshuang to find mountain produce today.
He sighed and said, "What the girl said is right. They are not married yet. If they are so eager to ask people for things, they will only be looked down upon."
Sister-in-law Hu spat in his face instantly, "Yes, yes, your sister is a precious gem, she can't be looked down upon. Your family is so noble, if there's no food at home, you'd better find a way to get it yourself!"
After saying that, she turned away and sulked.
Unlike the somber mood at the Hu family's house, the Mu and Zhou families were overjoyed, as if it were Chinese New Year.
With so many wild potatoes, plus other mountain products, and the remaining grain, they had enough to last them until they reached Jiangzhou.
After learning from Ji Yunshuang how to cook wild yams and discovering that they could be made into food, both families got busy preparing them.
They decided to steam the wild yams, mix them with chestnuts, coarse grain flour, wild vegetables, and other ingredients to make steamed buns.
The sweet potatoes that Ji Yunshuang took out from her space were genuine honey sweet potatoes.
The cooked sweet potatoes exude a rich, sweet aroma. When mixed with chestnuts, multigrain flour, and wild vegetables, the resulting steamed buns are even tastier than the ones they used to make.
The Mu and Zhou families were overjoyed and thanked Ji Yunshuang for leading them to find so much delicious food.
Smelling the sweet aroma in the air and seeing the steamed buns coming out of the oven one after another from the Mu and Zhou families, Liu was so angry that she felt dizzy and started throwing things around and scolding her daughters-in-law.
Even if Ji Yunshuang is all show and no substance, she can still lead people to find wild potatoes in the mountains, so why can't they?
She berated her daughters-in-law mercilessly, but they dared not utter a word of complaint.
The Sun family blamed Sun Meixiang, and the Sun family's daughters-in-law kept making veiled insults at Sun Meixiang to vent their resentment.
Unlike the Sun family and Lu Bingchun's family, the Hu family was not throwing things around and was full of anger.
But the Hu family was more heartbroken than the other two families.
The Sun family and Lu Bingchun's family were at odds with Ji Yunshuang. Even if they wanted to shamelessly curry favor with her, Ji Yunshuang refused to take them to find wild potatoes.
But they are different.
They deliberately pushed away the opportunity that was placed right in front of them.
Ji Yunshuang didn't pay much attention to the families.
She was looking at the mountain produce she had gathered from the mountains, secretly wondering what delicious food she could make to satisfy herself.
She looked at the mushrooms she had picked that day, then at the pheasants that Lu Yinheng and his brothers had caught, and an idea suddenly came to her mind.
She asked Lu Zilin to wash the mushrooms while she went to slaughter the pheasant. However, while slaughtering the pheasant, she secretly took out a few more domestic chickens from her spatial storage.
She wanted to make a meat sauce with the mushrooms and chicken she had picked that day.
To make meat sauce, you need more oil.
In the middle of nowhere, with so many villagers with her, it wasn't convenient for her to take out the oil from her storage space to use.
The only solution is to try and find a way out with the chickens.
She killed four domestic chickens, kept two of them, chopped them up, and mixed them with pheasant meat.
The other two were put into the space, leaving only the chicken fat.
Home-raised chickens have a lot of fat.
The fat cut from the four chickens weighed a good two or three pounds.
Although Ji Yunshuang added two more chickens, the chicken meat had already been prepared in advance, and the chicken feet and heads that would reveal any problems had already been placed in her spatial storage.
Now that they were taking the chicken and chicken fat back, although Gu was amazed by how rare the pheasant was and how much chicken fat it contained, she didn't have any major suspicions.
Ji Yunshuang heated the cauldron until it was red-hot, then put the chicken fat inside to render the oil.
The aroma that fills the air when chicken fat is rendered is something that sweet potato buns simply can't match.
As soon as the fragrance wafted out, almost everyone in the wasteland turned to look in her direction.
Simply put, it smells amazing.
Fortunately, they are now deep in the mountains, where there are no other refugees.
Otherwise, this aroma alone would surely incite a riot among the refugees.
Although it did not cause a riot, a sinister hatred flashed in the eyes of both Ma Lan and Sun Meixiang.
Ma Lan resented Ji Yunshuang's family. Even though they had all fled, they were still able to eat meat and lived a life no worse than they had in the village.
Sun Meixiang, however, was filled with hatred for Ji Yunshuang.
She felt that Lu Yinheng should have been her husband, and that the chicken should have been hers too; it was Ji Yunshuang who stole her good life.
She stole her good life and humiliated her; she deserves to die!
