13 Not poisonous?
The three ladies then moved their chopsticks.
"Here, let's share a roasted bird first. There's not enough seasoning, so I just added some salt. I don't know how it tastes." Qin Xiaoyao said quickly.
Immediately, the four roasted birds on the table were distributed to everyone.
Song Ye's little face was filled with joy, and he kept thanking Qin Xiaoyao, which made Qin Xiaoyao feel happy.
Liu's and Song Yun's voices were much softer.
But Qin Xiaoyao didn't mind either, and just told them to be polite and just let them eat tonight.
At first, the three ladies were a little cautious.
Soon, after seeing that Qin Xiaoyao really didn't care about them, he became bolder.
Eat slowly and confidently.
On the dinner table tonight, there is both meat and pancakes.
The Song family has never had such a meal in the past year.
Qin Xiaoyao also ate happily.
Compared to this poor family, her life in the last days before time travel was not much better than theirs.
However, those bitter days are over, and she has escaped the apocalypse.
With her own strength, she is confident that she can lead her family to live a good life.
A quarter of an hour later, Qin Xiaoyao finally felt full in his stomach after eating five cakes.
"I'm afraid the pheasant meat is not cooked well, but the yams should be edible." He said in his mouth.
Immediately, he stood up.
"I'll get a bowl of yam."
Liu's complexion immediately changed.
Then he looked panicked and immediately looked at his daughter and youngest son, warning them both with his eyes.
The daughter-in-law really has bad intentions.
Just letting them eat bread and meat was all in preparation for poisoning them next.
After receiving their mother's warning, Song Yun and Song Ye's eyes changed.
The relaxation I felt just now was gone, and I became nervous and scared.
But Qin Xiaoyao didn't know this.
When I got to the stove, I took the only big bowl left at home and scooped the yams into the pot.
As soon as he opened the lid of the pot, the aroma of chicken soup hit his face, making Qin Xiaoyao swallow a big mouthful of saliva.
Qin Xiaoyao didn't waste much time and quickly used a spatula to press the yam in the pot to check whether the yam was cooked.
After confirming that the yam was cut off by the spatula with a little force, Qin Xiaoyao knew that the yam was cooked.
I was so happy that I immediately scooped out a lot of yams.
At the same time, when I scooped out the yams, I also brought out two pieces of pheasant meat.
Without putting the pheasant meat back into the pot, Qin Xiaoyao covered the pot lid and returned to the table with a large bowl full of yams.
"Try it, it's good stuff." Qin Xiaoyao said while sitting.
But as soon as he sat down, Qin Xiaoyao noticed something unusual.
None of the three mothers moved.
Not only were there no yams to eat, but the rabbit meat and pancakes were also gone.
They all put down their chopsticks and sat down obediently.
"I - we are all full." Seeing Qin Xiaoyao looking at her, Mrs. Liu quickly said.
Qin Xiaoyao frowned.
His eyes looked at Song Yun and Song Ye again.
Both children lowered their heads and pretended to be ostriches.
Qin Xiaoyao couldn't help but frown.
Are you full? When she was eating just now, she paid a lot of attention to these three women.
They didn't eat as fast as she did, and they didn't eat much.
In addition, it’s hard to have a good meal at home. Even if I was really full just now, I shouldn’t put the bowl away so quickly.
Turning his head to look at Mrs. Liu again, he saw Mrs. Liu looking at the yam in front of him with strange and frightened eyes.
Qin Xiaoyao seemed to understand at this time.
He was speechless in his heart, and then Qin Xiaoyao didn't speak.
Instead, he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of yam, and put it into his bowl.
Then, with Liu's shocked expression and hesitation to speak, he picked up the yam and blew it.
Then, he put it in his mouth.
Because the cooking time is not long enough, although the yam is cooked, it is not soft and glutinous enough.
Qin Xiaoyao chewed it and found that despite this, the yam tasted very good.
So, I stretched out my chopsticks to pick up the second piece.
"Well, it's delicious!" he muttered.
As soon as these words came out, the three mothers looked at Qin Xiaoyao.
Especially Song Ye.
Watching Qin Xiaoyao eating yam, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Song Yun couldn't help but look at the food on the table, her eyes full of reluctance.
Mrs. Liu now realized that she had misunderstood her daughter-in-law.
Blushing, I wanted to say something, but couldn't.
Qin Xiaoyao glanced at the expressions of the three mothers and felt quite happy.
"There are still so many dishes on the table. Let's eat some more. I'll wash the dishes after you eat." He finally said.
The two children looked happy, but they looked at Mrs. Liu and did not answer Qin Xiaoyao's words.
"Eh-" Ms. Liu responded quickly and picked up the chopsticks again.
His face was red and he didn't dare to look at Qin Xiaoyao anymore.
She had a feeling that her daughter-in-law might have guessed her thoughts just now.
This made her feel ashamed.
Song Yun and Song Ye didn't think so much. They picked up their chopsticks and started eating happily again.
"Come, try this yam. It strengthens the spleen, nourishes the lungs and strengthens the kidneys. Eating it is good for your health." Qin Xiaoyao suddenly stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of yam for each of the siblings.
Seeing Ms. Liu looking over, she then took a piece of it for Ms. Liu.
"Mom, please eat more."
"Hey, okay!" Mrs. Liu quickly agreed.
Then, he picked up the yam in the bowl, blew it to cool down, and put it in his mouth.
Originally, she didn't have much hope and thought the yam would be delicious.
But as a result, I discovered that yam tastes really good.
Accepting two more yams from her daughter-in-law, Ms. Liu quickly ate all the yams in the bowl.
Then, I couldn't help but stretch out my chopsticks and pick up a piece.
"Is this yam really found in the mountains?" Soon, Mrs. Liu finally couldn't hold it back and asked Qin Xiaoyao.
She had occasionally taken her two children into the mountains to dig wild vegetables before, but she had never seen yams.
People in the village have never heard of any family eating yams.
If this thing really comes from the mountains, why wouldn’t anyone dig it up and eat it? After all, this thing is so delicious.
"Yes." Qin Xiaoyao replied happily.
After understanding Liu's expression, he smiled.
"Maybe it's because this thing looks like a firewood stick before it's peeled, so people don't dig it up and eat it."
Wild yams are indeed very thin and do not look much different from firewood sticks or tree roots.
Besides, after all, this thing grows in the ground, not on trees like wild fruits.
The villagers didn't notice it, or they didn't know it could be eaten after they discovered it, which is normal.
"Oh." Ms. Liu nodded thoughtfully.
"Are there many of these things in the mountains? Are there any?" Then he asked Qin Xiaoyao.
This yam is more delicious than those wild vegetables, and it can fill your stomach much more.
If there is still more, she can go into the mountains to dig, and the family's food rations will be secure.
Qin Xiaoyao looked at Liu with a smile.
"Don't worry, mother. And..."
"When I came back, I found a large yam field. I guess it would be okay to dig six to seven hundred kilograms."
