Stargirl's guide to life in the 70s

As for poisonous plants such as poisonous mushrooms, Yu Jiang planned to take them back to make some self-defense poison.

Although this era is still very safe for now, Yu Jiang has always been prepared for danger. These poisons, for which there is absolutely no antidote with the technology of this era, are one of her trump cards.

At worst, it could be used as a collection or to scare Lu Beiyuan.

Yu Jiang used his mental power to wander around the mountain seemingly without any clue, but in fact he always found the right one.

There was still a lot of game on the mountain. Yu Jiang selectively put a small portion of it into the backpack on his back, and put more of it into the space on his bracelet.

pheasant?

This thing is pretty good. I can ask Lu Beiyuan to make roast chicken for me when I get back.

Hare!

This is good! Good! Good!

Her rabbit, the soft, furry, numb and spicy little rabbit, was now in her hands. How could Yu Jiang let it go?

As for whether Lu Beiyuan could make these pheasants, rabbits and the like for him after he brought them back, Yu Jiang was not worried at all.

Don't think she doesn't know that after they got married, Lu Beiyuan often secretly learned how to cook behind her back.

To this day, although Lu Beiyuan’s cooking skills cannot compare with those of the chefs in state-owned restaurants, he can still be considered quite impressive when cooking for himself.

Yu Jiang wandered around the mountain leisurely until four o'clock in the afternoon. There was nothing within the range of her mental power that was worth her staying for, so Yu Jiang left this Yangmao Mountain with a little reluctance.

When Lu Beiyuan came back, he saw a pheasant that was dead as hell and a rabbit that had no hope of being resurrected placed on the table by Yu Jiang.

Seeing that the ingredients were still intact, Lu Beiyuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As early as when Yu Jiang sent him a message saying that she had hunted some game in the mountains and asked him not to go to the canteen to get food tonight, Lu Beiyuan had a vague feeling of worry in his heart.

As for hunting in the mountains, he naturally doesn't have to worry about anything with his wife's ability.

But what if Yu Jiang suddenly gets the urge to cook before he gets home...

Maybe that's another story...

Lu Beiyuan took care of dinner, and Yu Jiang ate to his heart's content. As expected, the rabbit he caught tasted better than other rabbits.

After dinner, Yu Jiang took out some of the trophies from today's hunting from his space bracelet: "I got a lot of trophies from going up the mountain today, I'll give you these animals, I can't cook anyway, if I leave them with you you can improve my meals.

By the way, I have some mountain products like mushrooms and black fungus here. I will take some time to dry them these days and send some to your parents later."

Lu Beiyuan was a little curious: "When did you learn all this?"

Yu Jiang waved his hand nonchalantly: "Before I went to the research institute, I went to the mountains with He Zhile all day long. We collected a lot of mountain products, so I learned these processing methods just by looking at them."

Yu Jiang still felt a little regretful as she spoke. It was a pity that her hands were out of her control when it came to cooking-related matters. She couldn't even complete a task like pickling meat.

But now with Lu Beiyuan, who is much more talented than her in cooking, Yu Jiang doesn't have to worry about such small problems.

Although Yu Jiang did not say this out loud, Lu Beiyuan unexpectedly agreed with her and took the initiative to take the job before Yu Jiang opened her mouth.

"Then I'll pick out some of the game you gave me and make it into bacon or something, so that it will be convenient to give it to others or keep it for myself."

Yu Jiang was very satisfied with Lu Beiyuan's idea and immediately gave him an affirmative look: "Okay, but you don't have to worry about not having enough to share. I will have to go up the mountain from time to time during this period. If it really doesn't work, you can buy these things in the time-space exchange machine."

Lu Beiyuan naturally agreed.

Then, Yu Jiang finally forgot about the rumors that she was pregnant, and because of the great harvest in the mountains today, she was in a very good mood.

Lu Beiyuan naturally climbed up the pole and made up for what he had lost last night.

Yu Jiang originally thought that Lu Beiyuan would use the method used by Yu's mother and the others to pickle the game, and thought that it would need to be dried in the sun, so he didn't take out so much at once.

Unexpectedly, Lu Beiyuan bought a very convenient machine directly from the time-space exchange machine, and then, the whole process was efficient and smooth...

"Can the taste of what you make be the same as the traditional way of making it now?"

Yu Jiang, who knew nothing about kitchen matters, was still a little worried about this issue.

After all, their game will be given as gifts, and if it is too different from the common pickled meat today, it may cause some unnecessary trouble.

Lu Beiyuan didn't have this worry. After all, the method he came up with naturally had an expected result for the finished product.

"Don't worry, I will control it. The taste won't be much different."

After saying this, Lu Beiyuan was afraid that Yu Jiang would be worried, so he continued to add: "When it comes to pickling, the taste varies from person to person, and no one can tell the difference."

Yu Jiang watched and couldn't help but laugh at his own thoughts.

Yes, Lu Beiyuan has always been a person who plans carefully, so naturally he doesn't need to worry about things in the kitchen.

However, since Lu Beiyuan had a better solution, Yu Jiang didn't plan to be stingy anymore and just took out all the animals he had killed today.

"Just rest assured, I'll take care of the game for the time being!"

Hearing this, Lu Beiyuan suddenly had a bad feeling: Why did it feel like his wife wanted to squeeze him dry to make these pickled meats?

As expected, Yu Jiang stayed at home for a short while the next day before going up the mountain again with his backpack.

After some free shopping, Yu Jiang set out on his way home with a basket full of mountain products and a pheasant in his hand.

Well, today I specially went for a run deep into the forest and gained a lot.

In other words, the mountains in Province Y are a natural treasure trove. Some medicinal herbs that cannot be bought outside no matter how much money you spend can be found in the mountains from time to time.

After all, not everyone is like Yu Jiang, who can know what is in the mountains with just a scan of his mental power.

Even if there were plants that Yu Jiang didn't recognize on the mountain, he could use his plant-related abilities to give a general definition of the plants, whether they were edible or not, whether they were poisonous or not, all of which were clear to Yu Jiang at a glance.

In particular, when he reached the depths of the mountains, Yu Jiang discovered many wild fruit trees, each of which was full of fruits, just waiting for Yu Jiang to pick them.

I thought that although this thing would still be eye-catching, it would not arouse jealousy as easily as meat.

In addition, Lu Beiyuan discussed with him yesterday that he would cook a meal at home before they left, and then invite Lu Beiyuan’s comrades and partners to dinner.

As a result, I have to bring things home from time to time during this period.

Well, I have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the nearby county in a few days.

Yu Jiang walked towards home while planning how to entertain Lu Beiyuan's comrades.

"Comrade Yu?"

Suddenly, a slightly surprised voice came from behind.

Yu Jiang turned his head and saw a slightly familiar face.

That face was bright and full of vigor of a young person under 20 years old. Even Yu Jiang, who had experienced the aesthetic fatigue of the interstellar era, could describe her as beautiful.

Yu Jiang continued to dig into his memory and finally remembered that he had seen this man when he last came to the army.

Her name seems to be Xin Qin, and she works in the logistics department of the army.

The reason why he could remember all the information about Xin Qin so quickly was mainly because when Yu Jiang first came to the army, he only knew two or three women of their age.

Among these people, Xin Qin is one of the few who left a good impression on Yu Jiang.

"It's you, Comrade Xin. What are you doing?"

Seeing that Yu Jiang remembered her, Xin Qin took a few quick steps to catch up with Yu Jiang.

However, she was also very sensible and did not reach out to take the things in Yu Jiang's hand.

It’s not that she didn’t know etiquette, but food in this era, especially meat, was extremely precious.

Although my original intention was to help others take it home with kindness, after I have helped them, would they like to share some food with me as a thank you gift?

This is an embarrassing situation for both parties.

Therefore, Xin Qin just walked to Yu Jiang's side and continued walking forward, and the two of them naturally started chatting.
