Exile with Storage Space: Family Fortunes in the Barren Lands Chapter 36 - 036 The Most Lavish Meal

A cylindrical object without a top and hollow inside, with two openings on the side.

The top opening is large, used for putting in firewood, and the bottom has a palm-sized hole for removing wood ashes.

Li Yuzhu struck the fire stone, creating sparks, and quickly ignited the fine dried grass.

The dried grass imdiately lit up other small pieces of wood, and soon ignited thicker pieces.

Once the fire burned robustly, Li Yuzhu slowly added more firewood one by one.

Li Xing’an patted his forehead, "So that’s how it’s done."

Li Yuzhu glanced at him amusedly, "Got it morized?"

"Of course, I’m a genius, I learn things quickly, hehe." Li Xing’an nodded.

The Second Young Master Li, who was tending the fire nearby, threw him a mocking look.

With the stove lit, Li Yuzhu put a small cleaned clay pot filled with water on the stove and added the prepped pork ribs to boil.

With everything scarce now, no oil or condints, she didn’t bother with the dish’s flavor, as long as it’s cooked and edible.

Once the ribs were cooked, she added rice and a bit of salt to make bone porridge.

Though the thod was rough and simple, it was very nutritious and easy to digest, suitable for all ages.

As for the half-year-old Li Guoguo, simply cooking so rice paste was good enough; this kind of greasy bone porridge wasn’t suitable for Guoguo, it might cause diarrhea.

This little niece has suffered, being weaned so early.

Xue Family is the Heir’s wife, according to custom, noble ladies of her status don’t need to nurse their own children.

In the Prince Mansion, the little niece had two wet nurses.

But as the family was punished to labor, how could wet nurses accompany them?

Thus, five-month-old Li Guoguo was forced to wean, and was fed mashed mantou mixed with hot water daily like adults.

Li Yuzhu suddenly discovered sothing strange at this ti; ordinarily, a newly weaned infant would cry incessantly, but this little niece had not cried at all since the edict arrived!

When she’s hungry or needs a change, she would whimper to make sounds, but never cry!

Instead, she often smiled at people.

She’s unusually obedient and sweet!

Li Yuzhu thought secretly, after dinner, she must find ti to use space instrunt equipnt for a thorough examination of the little niece.

After the family’s massive upheaval, may this child not be scared silly!

As they studied the stove here, the Great Princess and Second Princess also ca to watch the fun.

The Second Princess even learned to build a fire and played by stuffing firewood into the stove.

The whole family was bustling, everyone busy with their own tasks.

At a distance of several dozen steps, soone was hurriedly running over.

In his hand he carried a large wooden bucket filled with water.

In a hurry, water splashed all along the way.

Tired from running, he leaned on a tree trunk, breathing heavily.

Seeing the quietly burning little stove, and Li Xing’an, who was being reprimanded by the little girl and was a face of ash, he instantly realized his worry was unnecessary.

Mu Yuanxiu chuckled to himself, poured the bucket’s water quietly into the grass, and carried the empty bucket towards the South Mountain Slope.

When coming, he felt the mountain slope was full of thorns, a terrain of pits, endless and very difficult to navigate. But returning, everywhere were spring flowers in bloom.

This dinner was the most sumptuous Lu Ruan Wang’s family had eaten in a month, each person with a bowl of rib porridge.

Li Jing finished eating and continued to nibble on the bone for a long ti.

After eating, cleaning the pots and bowls was next.

Li Yuzhu looked at the eleven bowls and the small clay pot that had cooked porridge, frowning.

She was the one who lit the stove, washed the at bones, and cooked the porridge, and most importantly, it was she who hunted the leopard!
