I traveled through time, this is unscientific

Chapter 140 Dumplings

140 Dumplings

"Change!"

Zhou Xiaozhou said it with absolute certainty.

You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing your child.

Besides, what good stuff is this flour?

"Third sister, why don't we use this bag of flour to make dumplings for lunch today!"

Wu Sanmei was shocked: "This is not good!"

This is before we give them anything to exchange for food! They eat the food first.

Wu Xiaobao and Zhao Xiaoer clapped their hands and laughed: "Let's eat dumplings, let's eat dumplings!"

"What's the big deal? Eat it for lunch today. If you like it, you can exchange it for fruit later!"

Zhou Xiaozhou said this generously, and turned to Li Dahu and Zhao Danniu and said, "Dahu, Danniu, you guys can eat dumplings here today too. Come and exchange with me if you have something in the future."

Chen Dahe watched Zhou Xiaozhou coaxing the child and smiled without saying anything.

The people from the Wu family did not come back at noon as they were all busy in the fields. Only Zhang returned home to get food.

She was also very happy to see Zhou Xiaozhou, and her face was full of smiles towards Chen Dahe, who was the first to find her 'husband'.

But when he saw that the food prepared for lunch was dumplings, he was shocked and kept scolding his third sister.

This is a waste of money.

It was Zhou Xiaozhou who explained that it was she who asked her third sister to do it.

Zhang then stopped scolding, but her expression was still unhappy.

"Master Zhou, I don't mean to scold you, it's just that this grain is so precious."

How could a family like them eat snow-white flour? They couldn't even eat mixed flour.

The price of food in Kuching County has increased.

The summer grain has not yet arrived and famine is imminent.

"It's okay, Mrs. Wu. I can still give you this little bit of food. Don't worry about not having food to eat. I'm still waiting for you to come and exchange things with me!"

Zhang was speechless then.

Carry the things and go to the field.

The fields are really busy. The weather has been really bad these past few days. The water that was just poured into the fields has dried up immediately.

My husband and father-in-law are almost living and eating in the fields.

Old Wu, Wu Wen and Wu Wu from the local village were also surprised when they saw the food Zhang brought.

But when he heard that it was Zhou Xiaozhou who asked Wu Sanmei to do it, he couldn't say anything more.

I'm just a little curious about my 'husband' Zhou Xiaozhou.

But the fields really cannot be left without people, otherwise I would definitely go back to check.

The weather this year is really weird.

It's really not right that the weather in April and May is so hot.

The land, which had been watered a few days ago, has dried out again.

If the wheat is not filled well, there will be no harvest.

Old Wu was so anxious that big bulges appeared at the corners of his mouth.

Although we had captured an elephant tiger before, which could be exchanged for some silver and used to buy some food for emergency use, firstly, the elephant tiger had not been sold yet, secondly, the price of food had risen, and thirdly, this emergency measure was just an emergency measure and could not last long.

Master Zhou said that he could exchange food with her, but the harvest in the fields was not very good, and the mountain was dry, so what kind of fruit could it produce?

You should know that the fruits on the mountain are also edible.

Who would want to exchange this edible thing for something? It has already entered the stomach.

Therefore, Old Wu actually didn’t take Zhou Xiaozhou’s words to heart at all.

He didn't think so. He thought Zhou Xiaozhou just wanted to express his gratitude and had no intention of fundamentally solving the food shortage problem in Lai'an Village.

His mentor underestimated Zhou Xiaozhou's determination.

Is Zhou Xiaozhou really asking Wu Sanmei about this?

Everyone was eating dumplings and talking about these things at the table.

"You said your grandfather didn't tell everyone about this?"

"Well, Grandpa is not sure what you mean, Sister Zhou. I thought you were just joking!"

Zhou Xiaozhou was a little depressed!

"It was all just a joke." Chen Dahe helped to testify.

"Xiaozhou likes you kids very much. When he went back home, he kept praising you kids for being smart!"

"Really?" Wu Sanmei smiled happily after hearing this.

She didn't expect that Sister Zhou would still think about them after returning home.

"Really? You are the smartest students I have ever taught."

Zhou Xiaozhou did not lie about this, but she had only taught a few students.

Who doesn't want to hear nice words? These words made the people who were eating dumplings very happy.

Chen Dahe continued to exaggerate: "Xiaozhou was thinking that such a good student is about to have no food to eat, so he wanted to help you."

"But a gentleman will not accept food given out of pity."

"That's why I want you to exchange things for me."

"Xiao Zhou said that you are all hardworking, so picking some wild fruits and digging some medicinal herbs is not a difficult task for you."

These words were much better than what she had said. Zhou Xiaozhou gave Chen Dahe a thumbs up in his heart.

"That's true. Third sister is the one who finds the most wild vegetables and fruits in our village."

Li Dahu had been eating non-stop, and finally stopped to praise his sweetheart.

What he said made Wu Sanmei feel embarrassed.

"Just eat your food. Even such a big bowl can't stop your mouth."

Li Dahu chuckled and continued to eat. He had never eaten so many dumplings before.

Dumplings, the kind that's enough to fill you up. Where can you find such a good thing? He must eat his fill.

"The big girl is really amazing! She can also catch a lot of animals in the mountains."

After hearing Wu Sanmei's praise, the executor remembered that when they were crossing the woods under Huluyao that day, Zhao Danv and Li Dahu each caught a rat as big as their arm.

"Big girl, big tiger, did you eat the tiger we caught last time?"

If we dissect a rat that big, we should be able to reveal a lot of secrets!

It would be nice to figure out why the animals here are so huge.

"have eaten."

"Nope!"

The one who ate it was Li Dahu. As soon as the forest rat was brought home that day, his mother chopped it up and made it into a dish. His father Li Jinniu ate the most.

Zhao Danniu's family didn't eat any, as her family was not short of meat.

The big forest rat was cleaned up by her father and dried by her mother.

It is still hanging on the wall of her kitchen!

"Is it tasty?"

This is the core question Zhou Xiaozhou wants to ask.

"Sister Zhou, do you want to eat woodrat? How about I ask my eldest brother to go to the woods and catch one for you?"

Zhou Xiaozhou waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no."

It’s better not to let her eat that stuff. She’s not that self-destructive. She’s just a little curious.

"Xiaozhou doesn't eat those things. But I heard that he likes crispy duck very much. Today was a bad day. We will bring it to you when we come up tomorrow."

Chen Dahe helped to smooth things over and the matter of the mouse was finally brought to light.

It’s just business, Zhou Xiaozhou has never forgotten it.

"Third sister, big girl, big tiger, please help me talk to the children in the village today. The school will resume classes tomorrow. Tell them that if they have wild fruits or beautiful stones from the mountains, they can bring them to the school to exchange them for food."

Since the adults' way didn't work, Zhou Xiaozhou had to find another way and follow the path of a villain.

She still couldn't believe that she couldn't get anything from the village even with the food.
