The Leisurely Life of Farming and Raising Cubs After Time Travel

Chapter 26-30

Chapter 26: Up the Mountain

"Also, it's best to raise it about ten days after transplanting seedlings."

This is the season for raising seedlings. The seedlings have not been planted yet, and it will be about half a month before we can buy fish.

After Father Qin and Mother Qin heard this, the hesitation in their hearts disappeared. The situation at home is really bad. Try this rice field fish farming, maybe life will be easier.

"Auntie, I'll go back first, remember to eat the dumplings."

Although it's not hot yet, but without a refrigerator, there's no way to preserve food.

Qin Qingmu lit the fire in the kitchen, she was in charge of cooking the dumplings. Each person could have 20 dumplings, which would definitely not be enough for Qin Nanshan and Qin Yunli.

Mother Qin threw a few sweet potatoes and buried them in the fire, and asked Qin Qingmu to go to the backyard to pick a handful of green vegetables to boil them in dumpling soup. After the food was cooked, they put dumplings and green vegetables into a bowl, and when they were about eaten, the sweet potatoes are also roasted.

Qin Nanshan and Qin Yunli ate two more sweet potatoes, and only then did they feel full.

When Mother Qin was went to bed at night, she said to Father Qin: "Zhizhi is really a good girl, but she is alone and helpless."

"For chopping firewood, ask the eldest and the second to help more," Father Qin said.

They had experienced famine, and they were more interested in food, but Song Zhizhi generously gave them so much food, Father Qin remembered it in his heart.

"I don't know if Zhizhi likes the Eldest." Mother Qin said quietly.

"Don't mess with the mandarin ducks. The girl looks like a lady from a rich family. Our family is not good enough."

(A/N: Mandarin ducks are said to be mate for life, these ducks cannot live long if separated and usually remain alone, hoping for their mate to return. In Chinese culture, Mandarin ducks are believed to be extremely faithful to their partner, and are symbols of love, devotion, affection and fidelity. So basically, Father Qin was saying 'do not mess with their relationships'.) 

Mother Qin also sighed.

Song Zhizhi ate ten dumplings, and the remaining ninety were put in the space, so it would be convenient to eat dumplings later.

Remembering that she collected a lot of fruits before she travel through time, so she washed a bowl of strawberries and ate them while reading a storybook, which was very pleasant.

"Aww—" Master, I want to eat too!

Song Zhizhi glanced at Xiaobai, wolves are carnivores, why would they want to eat strawberries?

Song Zhizhi's mouth twitched.

This wolf is fake!

After reading for a while, she washed and went to sleep..

*****

Song Zhizhi decided to go treasure hunting on the mountain the next day.

She woke up before dawn, and prepared ten dumplings. She will go to the mountain later, it will be physical work, and can digest quickly.

She watered the vegetables and fruits, fed the chickens and ducks, and took Xiaobai out with confidence.

She thought to herself, she can go to the mountains a few more times in the next few days, and then stay at home after that  to wait for the furniture to be delivered to her door in a few days. At that time, she will have plenty of time to copy books.
