After the house has been arranged and decorated,  the baby dolls were brought back and placed into the  cradled that  jun bizhen bought after some modifications were made by jun bi .

There are still alot wild boar pork which jun bizhen most deal with as soon as possible.

Although the weather is cold,  so the pork meat will not spoil in a short time,  but the taste of the meat will change and become worst.

The most of the rest of the meat are lean meat picked by jun bizhen herself and some ribs .

The ribs will be there food for the next few days so she keeps it aside.

The lean meat was all peeled,  she then used a knife to turned it into a meat sauce. She added salt , sugar, soy sauce , a small amount of oil  her secret  chili powder.  She mixed them well and put in a pot .

What jun bizhen intended to do is pork chop .the pork chop can be kept for a long time and it will not spoil . It can also be used as a main dish or snack . The flaws in the ancient tools make her change it slightly.

A fire will be rise , when the pot become red , the simmered pork porridge will be put into  the put and a spatula will be used to flatten it little by little and as thin as possible.

When making pork ripe , the thinner it is the better.  Jun bizhen fore head oozes with a little sweat , but she did not dare relax .

Because there are no modern appliances,  the pork can only be madecin a pot . In order for it to be better,  it must be turned over and over till it turns to golden ,  she remove it cos  its  done .

Although it looked worst than the modern one , it taste is not bad .

After completion,  jun bi picked the pork then sipped the heat and she sprinkled some sesame seeds which she bought on the surface and put a piece of pork simmer on the side to cool it .

With the first experience,  it will be alot easier to do it later . The few ten pounds of pork where done which spent alot of time to make them .

Taking a breath and watching the result of her labour,  jun bizhen's couldn't help but bend her mouth.

After the pork chop was done , it can be stored for a long time as long as it is sealed in a dry pot .

Moreover,  the new store that she will open will be ready soon , at that time,  she will also placed the pork chop in her shop to sell.

As long as she thinks of the days when her future will be booming,  the smiled on jun bi's face cannot be concealed.

After leaving apart some part for tonight dishes , she put the remaining pork chop in a pottery jar and keep aside .

The sky will soon turn dark so both lin xiuxiu and lin dasheng who went to the field will be back soon.

Jun bizhen plans to make a peanut and pig hand in the evening,  and then make a sweet and sour pork ribs as the appetizer , and she will finally make a three fresh soup .

The rest of the meat can only made into bacon .
It's already the end of december and the weather is getting colder and colder.  The wild vegetables on the mountains are almost  been picked,  and if she continues to goes deeper into the mountains she will be in danger.
She has also some mushrooms and fungus in the house but there number is not that much .

When jun bizhen is handling the ingredients,  lin dasheng eldest daughter,  ying er came over to help her .

The 12 years old girl is thin and weak but very capable.

While brushing the pot and making fire , she talks to jun bizhen " sister bixi , the food you make are delicious,  i have never eaten such a delicious thing , will bixi sister also make us a delicious meal later ?

Jun bizhen listened to her and smiled then used her hand to pat h yang er head and said "well if yang er want to know how to cook good food,  you sister will teach you if you want ".

When she heard it she become happy and quickly nodded her head then stood at jun bizhen side to watch her cook .

Some ingredients need jun bizhen to prepared them by herself.

As there are many pepper corns in the mountains , when jun bizhen took it back she puts it in a small separate pottery jar .

When making peanut and pig hands  star anise is needed to be added.  She also introduced the spices to yang er .

It is not that difficult to make this dishes . The pigs hands need to be cut and keep till the water dries .then  picked out  and put into a pottery basin .

After the oil and ginger slice were sauteed and sauteed , the pigs hand are put into the pot and stir fry .

She then added soy sauce , salt ,sugar ,peanut, star anise ,fennel and other ingredients into the put , she add adequate amount of water and leave to cook for some time , till the pig hands and peanut become soft and delicious.

Yang er at her side has become serious as if she is memorizing everything to her heart.

After she finished that one , she started to make the sweet and sour ribs.  There are different method of how the sweet and sour ribs are made . Jun bizhen thought about it before she decide which method to use .

The ribs were already been smashed and they are scalded to blood,  then a little ginger,  garlic and cooking wine are added to remove the smell.

While taking the advantage of time , jun bizhen also began to prepare the sauce . As there are limited amount of ingredient,  she only added soy sauce,  salt and vinegar,  and small amounts of white sugar and raw powder and stir fry well.

She then remove the cooked ribs and added it to the sauce.  Boil the oil ,then  boil and fry the marinated ribs in the boiled oil . Till the ribs are fried to golden colour before she fished them out and placed them into a pottery basin.

After that,  the oil is put back into the basin only leaving a small amount of it in the pot , then ginger onions and the ribs that have just been fried are added into the pot to stir fry.

The sweet and sour ribs that she makes are delicious and crispy.

After the two dishes were made , jun bizhen cook the three fresh soup  .she cut the meat , wash the mushrooms,  wild vegetables which is simple and delicious.

When lin dasheng and li  xiuxiu come back, they went to jun Bi's house.  As soon as she entered the kitchen,  she couldn't help but drool.

Hey your cooking skills are first class, it will be a mans blessing if he marries you . After she said that she thought about something and then she shook her head and sighed.

Lin dasheng gave her a blank look and motioned her to stop talking.

Jun bizhen did not really care as she brings out the food she said  hey danshu , i know you are really hungry come let's eat .

When is bixi going to move out  ? Lin dasheng asked with a farm hoe on his hand .

We have already packed out , we will sleep there tonight,  if you want to eat you can tell me or come to my house for dinner.

"I really can't bear to go " lin xiuxiu said with a sigh .

Jun bizhen just smiled and put the dishes on a small wooden table .

After the dinner,  jun bizhen take the bacon and hung it on the eaves of the house with a string.

When she returned to her house,  the two little buns  were already asleep.  Cui wei is preparing the bed when she saw jun bizhen come in , she smiled and greeted her . 

" miss we finally have our own house " Although its not that big it is enough for them.

Jun bizhen smiled and looked in the dark and then said in a whispered voice
