Picking Up a General is Good For Farming

Chapter 38 - Mushroom White Rice



   “Sister, what do we have for lunch?” Han Yingxia asked.

   She still doesn’t know how to handle the food, and the cooking is not as good as her sister’s. So I can only ask Han Yingxue.

   “Let’s fry some mushrooms at noon, and sister will cook rice for you!” Han Yingxue said.

“good!”

   Several children were happily busy.

  The delicious taste of mushrooms makes them drool just thinking about it, and it is perfect when paired with fragrant white rice.

  Because the mushrooms are not directly used as meals, this time Han Yingxue did not cook much.

   There are two pots on the stove, one is stuffed with fragrant rice, and the other is slowly stuffed with mushrooms over a small fire. After a while, the smell of mushrooms and rice filled the kitchen.

  The last egg left in the house. Han Yingxue made egg custard with some mushrooms and rice for Zhao’s lunch. When the game is sold tomorrow, you can exchange some money and buy some eggs back. In this way, Zhao Shi’s body can be repaired more.

   Lunch will be ready soon with a few people busy.

  Han Yingxue asked her younger brother and sister to eat first, and she walked into the house with the food. Hand it to Mrs Zhao to eat.

   “Xue’er, I just heard you talking outside, have you come back from hunting?” Zhao asked.

   She didn’t hear what was said outside, and now she’s lying on the bed again, or she can get out of bed and take a look.

   “Yeah. We caught five hares and three pheasants!”

   When Mr. Zhao heard this, he opened his mouth in shock. Xueer had only been out for a while, and came back after hunting so many things?

   “Mother, tomorrow I will go to town with Brother Dalei and buy these for some money.”

   “Da Lei is going too?”

   “Well, Brother Dalei accompanied me to the mountain today!”

   Mrs. Zhao nodded when she heard it. She was relieved to have the child of Dalei accompanying Xueer. Going into the mountains is still very dangerous. She was worried about Han Yingxue in her heart. She couldn’t stop Han Yingxue in the current situation at home. Wang Dalei often goes into the mountains, and he accompanies Han Yingxue, so there should be no accident.

   “Da Lei’s boy is a good boy!” Zhao sighed.

  Han Yingxue also nodded in agreement. Wang Dalei is honest and has a good heart. Such a person is suitable for living. This is what girls should look for when they are looking for a home.

   “Mother, you eat first! When I change the money tomorrow, I’ll weigh you and Yingwen some pork back to make up for it.”

   Zhao holds a rice bowl, and the food is not bad in the farmhouse. A bowl of egg custard, and a bowl of mushrooms.

   “Xue’er, this egg custard, you can give it to your younger siblings, mother can eat mushrooms!”

  There was only one egg left at home, and Han Yingxue even brought it to her.

   “Mother, you are in confinement, but you can’t eat too badly. Can I buy something delicious for my younger brother and sister tomorrow if I change the money? Hurry up and eat it!”

  Han Yingxue waited for Zhao to finish eating. After finishing the dishes, I went back to the kitchen.

   After a simple lunch, Han Yingxue took the scale and supported the weight of the game.

   A pheasant weighs seventeen catties in total, and if a catty is twenty cents, it can be sold for three hundred and forty cents. A total of 30 catties of hares, 25 cents a catty, can be sold for 750 cents. So a total of 1,090 coins can be sold.

   In ancient times, one thousand coins was equal to one car of silver. Pork is about fourteen or five cents a pound.

   Therefore, selling these wild animals can be regarded as a small amount of income.

  Han Yingxue looked at the game on the ground and finally decided to keep the smallest rabbit. Tomorrow I will make a pot of rabbit meat for my younger siblings. It’s good to satisfy their hunger.

   At present, there are too few condiments at home, and the rabbit meat that is made may not taste good. When I go to town tomorrow, I will make a pot of delicious rabbit meat with some soy sauce, pepper, star anise and so on.
