Chapter 1 Dumplings
Song
The fifth year of Qingde, summer.
The sun bakes the earth, and the hills are covered with gray areas. The bark of a few big trees has been peeled off, struggling hard half-dead.
The light in the kitchen was dim. Gu Xiang stood in front of the stove, numbly raised his hand to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his chest.
The heart is still beating.
She is still alive!
Gu Xiang took a deep breath, as if he heard the ticking of the second hand.
I raised my eyes slightly and hung from the top of the system interface in front of the side. The red mark was trembling slightly.
[Countdown to life: 15 days 09:59:50, 15 days 09:59:49...]
This is not the sound of the second hand? It is clearly the King of Hell who is urging his life.
Gu Xiang had brain cancer as soon as she graduated from college. In the late stage, just when she was about to eat and drink and wait for death, a system came to her.
This system is called 'only life and food cannot be disappointed'.
Although the name is quite literary, it is not smart at all. Gu Xiang studied it for a long time before he understood that this system can earn food spots through the satisfaction of diners after enjoying the food. Food spots can be exchanged for health points to extend their lives to the host, and can also shop from the system mall.
There are all skills, recipes, cherished ingredients, and unique cooking utensils in the system mall. Of course, Gu Xiangquan dares not think about it now. As long as he has the opportunity to continue to live, he is already grateful.
At a young age and youthful manner, how could you want to die?
On the same day, Gu Xiang emptied his bank card and bought a multi-purpose cooking car, planning to set up a snack stall at the night market.
Although she only has the skill of making home-cooked dishes according to the recipe, as long as she uses the ingredients affordable, cheap, clean and hygienic, it will surely be satisfactory.
If you accumulate a lot, you will live a hundred years without hope.
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. She was so excited that she fell into the book when she opened her eyes.
Unfortunately, she was wearing a dead body, so she still had to prolong her life to survive.
"Why!"
I came to an ancient remote mountain village without any preparation, and was probably the little cannon fodder in a book, which was a hellish start.
She is now poor and has nothing but a snack cart she bought herself, but also a bunch of seasonings for making spicy hot pot.
Judging from the information I found out, this place is the Song Dynasty, and Zhao was surnamed Qingde.
Although the original owner's grandfather had never read a book, he worked in a wealthy family when he was young. He often showed his own knowledge and was good at talking about the past. When he was free, he often told his family some interesting gossips about the court and the country that he didn't know the truth or the fake. From the emperor to the famous generals and ministers, he said it was lively and the family was fun, but Gu Xiang heard some familiar or strange things from it.
This should be an overview version of the Song Dynasty.
It is said that the Northern Song Dynasty was prosperous, but it is estimated that the only place in Bianliang is located in the prosperous place.
She is currently located in Guzhuang, a mountain village in Shouling County. It is a remote village. Every family is poor and has a low news. It is rare for the villagers to have enough water every day, so it is impossible for them to go out to buy food. If you want to enter the county town, you have to walk over mountains and hike for two days.
The original family was an authentic farmer family, with three acres of thin land. The whole family relied on the ground to make a living. She dared to say that she wanted to make some food and sell it. Maybe the next day, her cheap mother would invite the witch to come and exorcise her evil spirits.
White air was gurgling from the stove.
Gu Xiang came to his senses, took the chopsticks and picked up wild vegetables from the steamer, put five large bowls into the basket, scooped a can of wild vegetable soup, and then picked up the basket and went out.
Just as he locked the door, Wang, next door, pushed the door out and said with a stern face: "Brother Jun is studying, just give it to me, don't disturb me..."
Gu Xiang glanced around and didn't see Wang talking to anyone. He nodded politely, and before she could finish her sentence, she walked straight to the river bank at the east end of the village.
Wang reached out to take the sky and couldn't help but be stunned. He came back to his senses and looked again. Gu Xiang had turned around and only had the blue skirt left. His face changed and he quickly followed him two steps: "Hey, you forgot to give me the food box!"
Gu Xiang took a few steps and vaguely heard a slightly impatient male voice behind him shouting - "I'm just Wenshu, mom, just take the food for me, don't let Sanniang come in and mess around." She suddenly remembered that the original girl seemed to have an engagement with Li Zijun, a scholar from the Li family next door.
The so-called engagement was just a verbal agreement between the elders of the two families back then. Now no one takes it seriously, and the Li family even disagrees.
The little girl does care a lot and takes good care of Li Zijun. In the past two years, she has to cook more every time she cooks and saves her own rations for the other party to eat.
A few days ago, Gu Xiang had just arrived. He was thinking about this in his vague memory. He thought that someone could pull some wool and not break it, so he gave him a meal, but in the end... he had no gains at all.
Gu Xiang's own life is hanging on the line, but he dare not make ends meet.
She quickly put Li Zijun and the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion behind her. If she was worried about what hadn't happened every day, she wouldn't have lived a life?
Now it’s still the thing in front of her is more important - she wants to deliver food to her parents, grandfather and uncle.
This is not an ordinary meal, it is clearly a life-saving meal.
A few days ago, the county issued an order to recruit labor to build river embankments and dig water canals, which is considered as labor-for-relief.
The Gu family has been entrusted with favors and was arranged to work in the east end of the village. They are used to working for their own village, and they are used to working hard. They can still get more than a dozen children in one day, so they are not aware of the heavy burden.
Carrying a basket, Gu Xiang was walking along the way in the scorching sun. From a distance, she saw someone sweating profusely under the sun. She quickly accelerated and walked as fast as she flew.
Halfway through, Gu Xiang's feet were tilted, and the clay pot containing the soup cracked into cracks. The faint sweetness slowly rose with the breeze, and soon it blew up the river bank.
Almost instantly, the laborer who was working hard to move the stone felt the greedy man in his belly and couldn't help but start to drool upwards in his throat.
Many children resting under the shade of the trees next to them could not control themselves. They stared at Gu Xiang with their little noses twitching, and they couldn't help but step forward and chased behind her. For a moment, Gu Xiang seemed to have a bunch of small tails.
Uncle Gu, uncle, Gu Xiang's father, mother, and grandpa Gu, had no intention of working early in the morning. When he heard a clapper, he quickly patted the soil in his hand and looked at his third wife.
Gu Xiang hurriedly stepped on the muddy gravel on the ground and took out the bowls and chopsticks from the basket, one by one: "Grandpa, you have bad teeth. I beat this bowl of dish dumplings softly."
"well."
Grandpa Gu didn't even bother to burn it. He ate half a dumpling of vegetables in one bite. He couldn't bear to swallow it for a while, and chewed it carefully, making his eyes narrowed when he enjoyed it.
Gudu!
There were sounds of swallowing saliva all around.
The rest of the Gu family quickly became obedient and felt satisfied.
"Why is the Gu family's food so delicious?"
"Gu Laoshi is so lucky. Their Sanniang's craftsmanship is really amazing!"
The Gu family eats sweetly, but the several laborers next to the Gu family are restless, which is very difficult to deal with.
If the Gu family eats delicacies, it would be fine if they smell it and are greedy. There are countless delicacies in the world that are not something that people like them can enjoy, but the Gu family’s food is not good.
This year, the scenery is terrible. Every household's food is precious. Usually, it's all about half soup and half a vegetable to make it full. The Gu family is no exception. However, they all eat wild vegetables, so they can't make the taste of others.
They can't tell what it tastes like, but they can smell it anyway, it's so greedy that it's completely different from the wild vegetables in their homes.
