After Her Divorce, She Escaped With A Strong Man To Farm

93 Chapter 93

Aunt Qiu and aunt Li went back to contribute their family’s jars. Ji Xiaoying and Li Shuang’er brought the children to help Su Qing start the fire. The wood crackled, and sparks flew. The pork in the big pot was turned over loudly, and the fragrance wafted into the nose. The Peach Blossom Cove villagers were so excited that their eyes lit up. They were waiting for a big meal to satisfy their cravings today.

The two wild boars had made two jars of lard. Su Qing asked Li Daniu to place the lard jars further away so the children wouldn’t get scalded.

The children of Peach Blossom were educated very well. No one made a fuss about food. The adults didn’t say anything, and they all waited obediently.

Su Qing filled a few bowls with the remaining oil residue and asked Ji Xiaoying to take the children to the side to eat.

Su Qing cut the meat in the front and back into large pieces and marinated them with salt. This way, it could be left for two more days. Otherwise, it would stink in such hot weather.

Su Qing made tiger skin pork legs from eight pork legs.

The two ribs were cut into pieces using the red braised method, and the three kidney layers were made into fragrant red braised meat.

The eight pig’s feet and two tails were cooked in a big pot. She rolled the noodles with some wild garlic and salt and mixed them. She then added a little sesame oil and ate them.

The pig in the water was an excellent dish to go with wine. Su Qing asked Li Shuang’er and the others to clean and cook it in a big pot. When it was 70% done, she took it out, cooked it with green onions and salt, and braised it.

Today, she had satisfied her craving for cooking. She had used more than half of the cooking methods in the recipe that Xiao Qi had given her. The villagers of Peach Blossom Cove were eagerly waiting for this all-pig feast. The descendant of a royal chef was not simple after all. Look at the variety of dishes she had made. This fragrance was too alluring.

Su Qing was busy cooking while aunt Qiu and the other girls helped her. The other girls also came to help. This was a rare learning opportunity.

They would get married in the future, and as long as they cooked well, they could tie down their husband’s heart.

Ji Shuisheng brought people back and forth to get water. He was also exhausted. Every time he came back, he could smell the fragrance and see Su Qing’s focused expression on cooking. It was a pleasing thing to the eye.

Two hours later, the dishes were all ready. There was a big pot of red braised meat, eight big pork legs, and the mouths of the villagers of Peach Blossom Cove were covered with oil. Because there was too much meat and they couldn’t finish it, they didn’t waste any food, and everyone ate to their heart’s content.

Zhong Yong didn’t want to eat it, so he first sent it to his mother. After Madam Li ate Su Qing’s food, she was stunned. It was too delicious. She hadn’t eaten such delicious food in more than ten years. She recalled the time when she was pregnant with Yong’er. Yong’er’s father had brought her to a restaurant, giving her all the delicious food. Just because she had said the pork shank was delicious, he had left all the food for her without eating a single bite.

Madam Li’s tears could not help but fall again. Ji Xiaoying saw this and quickly wiped her tears away.

“Godmother, why are you crying?”

“It’s so delicious. I’m so happy that I’m crying.”

Madam Li wiped her tears with her sleeve and explained in a low voice.

Su Qing had been busy for a long time and felt sore in her arms, legs, and waist. She looked at her without saying a word. When she heard Madam Li’s sigh, she knew she was thinking of her.

Su Qing didn’t hold back and immediately sat down to eat the meat. This body was lacking in meat, and she would salivate when she smelled the meat. She was delighted with her cooking. As expected, the system’s voice rang in her ear.

“Congratulations to the host for making the all-pig feast and receiving good reviews from the entire village. The reward is that the host’s cooking skills have risen by two levels. The host’s cooking skills have risen to level five, and the host’s physical strength, mental strength, combat power, and god of war abilities have risen to level 23.”

Su Qing was delighted with this growth rate, but she also understood that it would be easy to level up initially, but it would not be easy once the level was high. However, she did not have high expectations and just wanted to level up the god of war ability to level 50 as soon as possible.

With half the abilities of her previous life, she could do whatever she wanted in this ancient world.

The system’s voice rang in her ears again,

“The host has worked hard on the mission. The reward is a soy sauce recipe.”

The corner of Su Qing’s mouth twitched. The system must have heard her inner voice just now. It was a surprise. She could become the wealthiest in the great Xia Kingdom by making soy sauce.

There was still a lot of meat left after everyone had eaten their fill. Old master Qiu asked aunt Qiu to distribute it to everyone. When they were hungry on the way, they would eat it themselves.

The two jars of oil were placed on the carriage. Su Qing took the time to rest and made two lids to cover the jars to prevent dust from falling in.

As for the meat marinated in salt, she put it all into the basket and placed it on the carriage.

Old master Qiu was pleased. When he had escaped from Peach Blossom Cove, he had been worried that he would starve to death on the way. Now, he had three carts of food, so much meat, and two jars of meat oil. His life was even better than it was at Peach Blossom Cove.

“Pack your things and hurry on.”

It was still early after dinner, so Ji Shuisheng called for them to hurry on with their journey. They had to find a place to camp and sleep before dark.

The villagers had eaten their fill and had the strength to walk. The women now learned from Su Qing when they walked. Each held a straw and weaved straw shoes as they hurried on.

Su Qing was not hurrying to get into the carriage and leave. She had just eaten so much meat, and she could not digest it in the carriage. Not only did she not want to take the car, but she also asked Xiaoying to walk with her. When the children saw that the two of them did not want to take the carriage, they also did not want to. They ran behind them, chasing butterflies when they saw butterflies and chasing dragonflies when they saw dragonflies. They had a lot of fun.

The adults wouldn’t scold them as long as they didn’t run far. Su Qing could hear the children’s tender laughter along the way.

None of them sat in the carriage, leaving Madam Li alone. She felt a little uneasy, thinking she had done something to make Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying feel repulsed and unwilling to sit with her.

“Master, Xiao Qi has been revived with full health.”

Su Qing was weaving straw sandals as she walked. Suddenly, she heard Xiao Qi’s cheerful voice. In the system, she had returned to her fair and chubby appearance. Her beautiful big eyes were like the blue sea, and her long eyelashes were charming when they blinked.

“Okay.”

Su Qing snorted. She still looked cold on the surface, but Xiao Qi knew that her master was worried about her.

Seeing that Xiao Qi had woken up, Su Qing stored the herbs she had picked with Ji Shuisheng in the system. Xiao Qi was happy when she saw the herbs and started to blow pink bubbles again,

“Master is so awesome; you picked so many herbs again. Xiao Qi is so happy.”

The corners of Su Qing’s mouth lifted slightly. She was happy and relaxed because Xiao Qi had woken up.

The progress of weaving straw sandals was too slow, and they were uncomfortable on the mountain roads. Su Qing ordered Xiao Qi to find her the blueprint and method of making riding boots, and she was ready to make them herself.

Xiao Qi happily received her master’s order and went to the screen to look for the blueprint.

Su Qing brought the cooked horse skin into the carriage. Ji Shuisheng saw her and stopped the carriage. Once Su Qing got on the carriage, Ji Xiaoying and the children got on. The quiet carriage instantly became lively again.

Hearing that they had returned, Madam Li’s restless heart finally relaxed.

Ji Xiaoying saw Su Qing holding a pair of scissors, ready to cut the horse’s hide. She couldn’t help but ask,

“Sister, what are you doing?”
