Reborn in ancient times: I will make my family rich

Jiang Nan gave Gu Yanzhou a thumbs up and said, "You're still the best," with a proud and expressionless face.

"Hurry up and change your clothes quickly to avoid catching a cold," Jiang Bei was already soaked.

Jiang Nan picked up the four fish on the ground and took Jiang Bei home to change clothes.

Looking at the sun in the sky, I estimated that it must be noon now.

The fish was already dead when Jiang Bei threw it to the shore. Jiang Nan took the pot and the fish to the stream to process it and cooked it for lunch.

It's not good to store it now because it's hot.

Jiang Nan squatted by the river and removed all the internal organs of the fish. Among the four fish, there was a big one. Jiang Nan estimated that it weighed at least three kilograms.

After cleaning the fish, Jiang Nan fetched a pot of water from the well on his way back.

The four fish Jiang Bei caught were all carp, which had many bones.

I plan to boil the three small fish into fish soup so that the bones can be cooked more thoroughly.

Jiang Nan planned to grill the big fish.

When he got back, Jiang Bei had already changed into clean clothes and was playing with Jiang Shuang in the yard.

"I'm going to the mountain. Do you two want to come with me?" Jiang Nan asked the two little guys.

The fish soup will take most of the day to cook, so just let Gu Yanzhou watch over it.

"go."

"I'll go as well."

"Then Gu Yanzhou, you stay home and watch over the fish soup in the pot."

"Ah."

Jiang Nan took his bag and kitchen knife and went to the back mountain with the two little ones.

Before going up the mountain, Jiang Nan picked up three sticks and gave one to each of the two children.

"Watch out for snakes later."

"understood."

"Sister, why did Brother Gu come to see you yesterday?" Jiang Bei asked, suddenly remembering what happened last night.

"Looking for me?" Jiang Nan was puzzled by the question.

"Yes, yesterday when we came back from taking a shower, Brother Gu saw that you hadn't come back yet, so he went to look for you."

"Sister, didn't you meet Brother Gu?" Jiang Bei raised his little face with a gossipy look on his face.

“I haven’t encountered one yet.”

Jiang Nan lowered her eyes. Gu Yanzhou went to find her, but she didn't see him at all last night.

Suddenly, an idea popped into Jiang Nan’s mind: would Gu Yanzhou peek?

Judging from Gu Yanzhou's looks, there should be no shortage of people coming to him. She must have been overthinking it.

Jiang Nan shook his head.

"Miss Jiang, come up the mountain!" A middle-aged man met Jiang Nan and greeted her.

"Yes, uncle," Jiang Nan nodded. Now everyone in the village knew her. She felt awkward since she didn't know them very well, so she had to bite the bullet and say hello.

Along the way, Jiang Nan met many people who greeted him. There were many medicinal herbs in the back mountain. Jiang Nan picked wild vegetables while picking them, and also picked the herbs he recognized.

In the distance, Jiang Nan saw a bright red area.

When he got closer, he saw that they were actually chili peppers. At first, Jiang Nan thought they were wolfberries.

Jiang Nan was overjoyed and picked a lot of peppers from nearby.

They also encountered some mushrooms on the mountain, and Jiang Nan picked them up as well.

"Sister, mother once said that colorful mushrooms cannot be eaten." Jiang Bei looked at Jiang Nan who was packing everything into her bag and spoke with concern.

"This is okay, I've eaten it before, don't worry," Jiang Nan patted his little head.

She comes from the land of mushrooms and has seen all kinds of mushrooms.

Jiang Nan picked a lot of mushrooms, including black, white, and red.

It was estimated that the villagers were afraid to eat them, so the place Jiang Nan discovered was full of mushrooms.

Jiang Nan picked a lot of them, and they can be dried in time.

On the way, Jiang Nan also found a field of Solanum nigrum. The fruits were about the same size as wolfberries. They were black when ripe and slightly sweet when tasted.

Jiang Nan picked some for the two little ones as snacks.

"Sister, this is so delicious." Jiang Shuang ate the hard-earned snack, put it in her mouth, tasted it and said happily.

"I'll buy you more delicious food in the future." She touched Jiang Shuang's head.

Looking down at the top of Jiang Shuang and Jiang Bei's heads, their hair was slightly yellow, caused by lack of nutrition.

Alas, the two children are still growing up, and I don’t know when the roads in the village will be accessible.

After returning home, Jiang Nan put the herbs, mushrooms and peppers in his bag in the yard to dry.

"The soup is almost ready," Gu Yanzhou said when he saw Jiang Nan coming back.

"Okay, I'll grill some fish for you later."

Jiang Nan took out the fish that had been marinated earlier and asked Gu Yanzhou to grill it first.

She took out the peppers she had picked earlier, found two branches, picked up the peppers and placed them over the fire to dry.

After being roasted, the aroma of the pepper wafted out, and she really wanted to smell the pepper.

Jiang Nan didn't roast too many, two or three were enough.

Jiang Nan then asked Jiang Bei to find two smooth stones beside the stream, clean them and bring them over.

The stone was placed in the yard for a short while and it was completely dry, with no water stains left.

Jiang Nan crushed the roasted chilies on a stone and placed them in a bowl beside him.

At that time, we bought four bowls per person. If we had known that a mudslide would happen, we would have bought more.

Now one pot and four bowls are not enough, and there are no buckets to store water, so we have to use a pot to wash the vegetables on a daily basis.

There's no use regretting now.

Jiang Nan entered the house carrying peppers.

"Sister, do you want to add chili? Shuang'er is too young to eat chili."

"I ate it myself, don't worry, little adult," Jiang Nan teased Jiang Bei.

This kid really worries about everything and never feels tired. Children of this age should just play and eat and be carefree.

"Let me do it. You take a break. It must be tiring to hold it up all the time." Jiang Nan sat down and wanted to take the grilled fish from Gu Yanzhou.

"It's okay, it will be fine in a moment. I just need to move around," Gu Yanzhou did not let go.

Let her feel comfortable.

At dinner time, Jiang Nan gave the part of the carp with fewer bones on its belly to the two children, and he and Gu Yanzhou divided the back half of the fish equally.

Jiang Nan eats his own dipping sauce, it’s so delicious!

This is the first bite of meat she has eaten since she came here!

God knows how long it has been since she last had meat.

-------------------------------------

For the next half month, Jiang Nan was busy going up the mountain to find food every day. After more than ten days of rest, Gu Yanzhou's body was basically recovered.

"Village head, village head, the road is open." In the evening, Jiang Nan and three others were eating in the room when they suddenly heard someone shouting excitedly.

Jiang Nan was overjoyed, put down his bowl and chopsticks and ran out to check.

If there is no access to the village, they will all freeze to death here.

She was woken up by the cold several times these nights because she had no quilt.

"It's really working." The village head's eyes were red with excitement. This finally gave them some hope.

"If I can pass the test, I can already pass it by. How can I deceive you?"

"Let's go and have a look, let's go and have a look."

A group of people, young and old, men, women, and children were all walking towards the village.

Gu Yanzhou: You watch over them, I'll go take a look.

Jiang Nan hurried to catch up.

Jiang Nan has never been here since the mudslide. On weekdays, villagers would come here to see if they could pick up something useful.

When we re-entered the village, the entire village had basically been flattened by the mudslide.

There is no trace of its previous appearance.

There were also many bodies buried in the mudslide, with only half of them exposed.

The scene before him made Jiang Nan feel cold in his heart. No matter when, natural disasters are not something that humans can overcome.

Fortunately, I didn't bring my two children with me.

When some adults saw this scene, they covered their children’s eyes for fear that they would be frightened.
