, the academy is large, and it's convenient for someone to run errands and do odd jobs..." 。I was thinking that in the village, I should also find one for Jiaren. 。“That’s good!” The village head nodd...Tao Hongying, driving a mule cart, went to another village called Xiaowang Village.

Big Banyan Tree Village is populous, located about four or five miles southwest of Broken Gold Beach. It is clean and prosperous.

This Xiaowang Village was a little farther away, but it was located seven or eight miles southeast of Suijin Beach, near the official road. There were more people in the village who did business.

The Li family's cart bought quite a lot of things here, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, a fresh piece of pork belly, and even a dozen freshly made tofu blocks.

Jia Yin's mouth watered at the thought of fish stew with tofu, and she stealthily moved two more carp out of the space.

Two carp suddenly lost their water, jumping angrily and splashing the old woman in the face with water.

She deftly pulled the rope, stringing both fish through their gills and hanging them on the basket. Only then did she glare at her granddaughter and warn in a low voice, "We're almost home, you better behave yourself."

Jia Yin giggled and ran into grandma's arms, slobbering all over her face.

Li Laotai sighed inwardly, truly feeling both joy and contradiction.

Even though her granddaughter, who is less than two years old, would try to cuddle up to her and even throw herself into her arms, she always knew to avoid her injured shoulder.

Such a well-behaved child, who could not love him/her

It was her uncanny ability that always left people on edge.

My family isn't well-off now and can't help with charitable deeds. I worry if my granddaughter will be harmed by this lack of blessings.

"Hongying, the big fish and tofu we bought on the road just now, go back and stew them with cabbage. Make more to share with everyone, especially Village Chief Zhao and his family, and Dr. Zhang, and the new blacksmith, Han Master. Don't let any of them miss out."

"Understood, mother. Our family has never skipped a meal for our elders." Tao Hongying turned around, glanced at the two large fish, and whipped her whip a few more times.

Seeing that the sun was about to reach its peak, she hurried home to cook.

A thousand rolls of tofu and ten thousand rolls of fish, this dish is not delicious if it's not stewed for a long time.

As expected, all the workers on the mountain had already returned by this time.

Zhao Yuru and Dongmei had cooked glutinous rice porridge together, but they were racking their brains about what dish to make.

Seeing the old woman Li and her daughter-in-law return laden with goods, not to mention the surprise and joy of their own family, even the villagers gathered around.

"Aunty, you must have struck it rich! You bought so many things back"

Grandma Li laughed as she jumped out of the car and replied loudly, "I went all around Dàróngshù Village and Xiǎowáng Village. I was lucky enough to buy two big fish and some tofu. After a while, I'll stew them up, and everyone can have a taste."

"No, no, mother. You keep it for the children to eat. Jiaxi and Ji'an are still recovering, even Funiu was frightened. You should give them more nourishment."

The villagers sincerely declined, and Old Li didn't say much.

But when the truck unloaded the Chinese cabbage and carrots, Li's family kept half of it. The rest was carried by villagers to the big kitchen area.

Soon, just as Old Mrs. Li had finished hiding the basket of eggs, the village head had someone deliver three or four catties of glutinous rice. It was clear he didn't want the Li family to suffer a loss.

Old Mrs. Li readily accepted it and sat resting in the shed.

The usually taciturn Jiahuan was beaming, carrying two large fish. He skipped to the riverbank, tidying them up with glee, then called out loudly to his grandmother.

"Grandma, should we fry the fish a little before stewing it"

Grandma Li couldn't help but laugh and replied, “Don't worry about the oil. Just cook it however you think is best, since we don't get to have big fish often. Besides, I bought two pounds of oil today, so a little more won't matter.”

Jia Yin was sitting next to her grandmother, her little face pressed against the old stove, drooling at the sight of the pot. She wished the fish would cook quickly!

Jia An Jia Xi was originally sitting in the shed, wearing only half a pair of pants, exposing his two legs and bare feet. The blisters on his legs had shrunk somewhat after being treated with medicine, but they were still unsightly.

But outside it was too lively, especially with the big white goose they had just bought tethered to one side of the coop, attracting ten or so children from all over the village who were chattering and laughing.

"Is this a swan My mother said one goose egg is bigger than three chicken eggs!"

"Your mother is lying, look how small its butt is."

"My mother wouldn't lie. Don't you believe me Let Grandma Li take out an egg and show you."

"No, I'm afraid Granny Li will beat people up. Yesterday, even Jiayi got into a fight with her."

Jia An Jia Xi was itching with annoyance, like being scratched by a cat, in that tiny shack.

While grandma was holding the little sister to watch their mother stew fish, they quietly unlatched a hole behind the nest and crawled out.

When the companions saw them, they were all surprised and wanted to call for people but were covered their mouths...

Playful kids together, never expect them to be quiet.

In a moment, a boy brought the white goose up, its bottom facing upwards. Everyone crowded forward, not just to look but also to pry it open for closer inspection.

Doesn't the swan care about face Isn't it ashamed

Then, just as Jia Yin was about to swallow her overflowing saliva, a scream came from beside the shack.

Then, the mischievous little bundles tumbled out, followed by the frantic white goose.

The white goose runs and flies low, specifically targeting the behinds of mischievous boys with a sharp peck.

For a moment, the valley was filled with the cries of ghosts and wolves, startling everyone to their feet, thinking that some wild beast or serpent had entered.

Finally, it was Old Four Li who grabbed the white goose by the neck, saving Home Anjiaxi, who had been attacked the worst.

"What are the two of you doing You should be healing in your den, not provoking the geese!"

Jia'an Jiaxi was overwhelmed with grief and tears. They were just curious...

Villagers rushed to question their own sons. Once they understood the situation, everyone felt both amused and annoyed.

Needless to say, every single one of the mischievous boys got a slap and went hungry.

Just like every other family, Jiaxi and Jian were no exception. They were taken by Lao Si Li to wash their dirty little feet in the hot spring and then thrown back into their hut. The whole family ignored them.

Soon, the fish stew with tofu and cabbage was ready. The elderly villagers all received a bowl, especially the new Korean master chef. His bowl had a large piece of fish meat, which made him very happy and kept thanking them.

Finally, there was still half a pot left. Grandma Li picked a bowl of fish meat for her granddaughter and poured a spoonful of fish soup on it. The whole family gathered around the stove and ate together.

"Fragrant, it's really fragrant!"

"Yes, braised fish should be pan-fried first to remove the fishy smell and improve the color of the fish broth."

"Tofu is still the best, soaking up all that fish broth. Every bite practically drips with oil."

Everyone munched away and showered praise, so much that even Jiā'ān Jiāxǐ at home couldn't help but cry tears of envy.

Jia Yin grinned and crouched at the entrance of their hut, happily eating fish. Seeing her two older brothers crying with snot and tears made her smile ache.

Actually, fish are considered a type of "發物". They have so many water bubbles on their legs, which means they aren't suitable for consumption.

But they didn't know, they really thought their family didn't care about them. Poor things, like abandoned puppies.

Jia Yin wasn't going to tell them, because the two brothers were simply too naughty.

Yesterday, I almost got her barbecued on a flat stone. Today, she dragged herself around with blisters all over her legs and didn't behave herself, causing chaos in the campsite again.

If we don't scare them a little, they're going to cause chaos later.

It's obvious that everyone has this idea, just eat and drink what they should, pretending not to see the mischievous kids. Letting them rub their butts that have been pecked by the goose, then wiping their tears with an empty stomach. thirty-five examination baskets were all prepared together by the academy.After the incident with Wang Sheng and Liu Kui, all the students learned their lesson. They dressed neatly and tidily, and no...
