The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 693

Chapter 693: Chapter 689: Too Unfair

"Sister Xiao Li, I’m going to head back now."

Gu Jiaojiao picked up her back basket, placed the medicinal herbs she had gathered inside, and said goodbye to Chen Xiaoli before leaving.

When she got home, she went to the cellar to check her stock.

Over the past six months, Leng Yuan had gone up the mountain quite a bit. They basically kept whatever he caught for themselves to eat and hadn’t sold any of it.

She took a look and saw there were two pheasants, one wild rabbit, and some eggs.

Their hens were now laying four eggs a day, but it still wasn’t enough. With everyone eating one boiled egg each morning, there were none left over for cooking. Leng Yuan still occasionally traded for some eggs to bring home.

He had brought back half a basket last time, and there were still quite a few left!

Gu Jiaojiao decided to stew the pheasants.

During the winter, she had stored a lot of wild mushrooms from the mountain. Those mushrooms tasted great, and the dried ones had an even richer flavor than fresh ones. Stewing the pheasant with dried mushrooms and adding some sweet potato noodles would be absolutely divine.

She would make the wild rabbit spicy.

With two meat dishes planned, she could also scramble some eggs with the chives from her backyard, which would be wonderfully fragrant.

The food back then was all about being purely natural. The eggs were all free-range, so they already tasted good on their own. Frying them with a spoonful of homemade lard would make them even more delicious.

Then she could pick a tomato for a cold salad, stir-fry some green vegetables, and make a soup. For the main course, they would have white rice!

These dishes would go perfectly with rice.

While Gu Jiaojiao was busy at home, the village outside was in an uproar.

Leng Yuan was walking along the edge of the fields with a stranger. The man was well-dressed and had a powerful presence; he was clearly not an ordinary person.

Just as everyone was guessing the man’s identity, the production team leader walked up from behind.

He eagerly explained the planting situation and the growth of the crops to the visitor.
