Chapter 16 Not One Place
Not long after, Tong's mother and son came back with their clothes full of taro.

Someone started it, and Qiu and the others couldn't bear it any longer. It didn't matter whether he could really eat it or pretended to be able to eat it, as long as someone ate it, they would eat it too.

Fearing that they would not be able to grab the taro, they hurriedly led the children up the hillside, swarming towards the place where Xu Yue and the others had gone before.

But they came late, and the two best-looking places had been dug up by Tong's, but the mother and daughter couldn't take much away, and there were some left.

Qiu Shi and another woman were bloodied in the fight, and the other two looked at the posture, and hurriedly dispersed to search around.

I was lucky, although I didn't find as many as Xu's family, but I got some of them, and I finally got something.

As for Tong's mother and daughter, they brought taro but didn't know what to do with it, so they did as Xu's family did.

Seeing them wash the taro and put it in the pot for cooking, or stuff it in ashes and roast it, I learned how to do it.

Not long after, a scent spread across the open space, and Mrs. Wang stared at the tumbling taro in her mother's pot, and swallowed hard.

But she didn't move, but stared eagerly at Xu Yue and the others not far away.

Xu Yue inserted a taro with chopsticks made of branches, peeled off the outer skin, and opened her mouth wide to take a bite first.

The mouth is soft and slightly sweet, not as soft and sweet as the taro of later generations, but for Xu Yue who has been eating rice bran for many days, the taro in her mouth is the top delicacy.

"Guru~"

Seeing Xu Yue's enjoyment, the stomachs of Xu Da, Xu Dalang, Xu Erniang and his son cried out at the right time.

Different from Xu Da and Xu Erniang's etiquette and elegance engraved in his bones, Xu Dalang reached out to the taro in the pot regardless of the boiling water.

Fortunately, Xu Yue found out quickly, opened his hand with a chopstick, and hurriedly handed him the taro in her hand, so Xu Dalang's hand was saved from being burned.

"Brother, you need to use chopsticks to eat!" Xu Yue reminded with a stern face, "Boiling water will burn your hands, do you understand the burn?"

"."

Xu Dalang buried his head and gnawed furiously, swallowing the fist-sized taro whole, staring at Xu Yue eagerly, his big watery eyes filled with: More!

Xu Yue raised her head and took a deep breath before she let down the pent-up air pressure in her throat, angrily used chopsticks to pick all the taro out of the pot.

A total of twelve taro, three per person.

Xu Daya brushed aside the obstructing bangs, took the three taro in his arms, tore off the skin, chewed slowly one bite at a time, his eyes were slightly squinted, with tears flickering inside.

This is what people eat!
Xu Erniang didn't say a word, she ate three taro in silence, rubbed her open stomach, lay on the semi-finished straw mat made by Xu Da, looked at the hot sun in the sky, so happy that she wanted time to stop at this moment forever.

Xu Yue was small, so she didn't dare to eat too much at once, so she only ate one taro, and the remaining two were given to Xu Dalang who was reincarnated like a starving ghost, and the other was used as surplus food in her arms.

Looking at the family lying down together after eating, Xu Yue puffed up her bun face and sighed, walked to the pond, dug a hole to divert water, let her hair out in a bun, and washed her hair comfortably.

By the way, I also washed my dirty little face.

The six-year-old girl has a round head, shallow eyebrows, big eyes, a small nose and a small mouth, her skin is tanned, her cheeks are bulging, and she has a little baby fat.

Compared with other skinny children, she looks much better.

Xu Yue looked at the completely unfamiliar little face in the water, a little dazed.

Everything yesterday seemed to be close in front of my eyes, and it seemed to be just a distant dream. When I woke up from the dream, it was the cruel reality.

But... still have to live well.

Xu Yue, come on, you can do it!

In the evening, Wang and others who had gone hunting came back.

As soon as I came back, I could smell the sweet aroma of the food, and I was shocked to see the black bumps.

Those who had their wives and children all got the hot taro that their wives and children handed over happily. The rustling and soft powder taste, and the slight sweetness, surprised everyone who was hungry.

As soon as they heard that the baby from the Xu family had found it on the hillside, those Dawang Villagers who went hunting but returned empty-handed immediately went to the hillside to look for it.

Even if the sky is getting dark, there will be wild beasts coming and going, and I am not afraid.They wished that a few beasts would bump into them, and they would be able to fill their stomachs by then.

Wang looked at the joyful faces of Tong and the others, and then at the three children of his own family who were in front of him, and was stunned.

She didn't expect that the children in the family could be so capable.

"Aniang." The two sisters Xu Yue called her, their eyes were shining, and they looked like they were waiting for praise, which melted Wang's heart.

She responded with an "ah", and then came back to her senses, and called the three children to walk to the fire, and put down the prey on her back.

The other Dawang Villagers returned empty-handed, probably because their prey had all come to Mrs. Wang, three pheasants and four rabbits, three of which were still alive.

You can tell at a glance that the rabbit family has been taken over by one pot.

Xu Da used the wrung-out handkerchief to let Wang wipe her sweat and hands, Xu Erniang brought cold boiled water to quench her thirst, and Xu Yue handed her the boiled taro with anticipation in her eyes.

This seems to be the treatment of the head of the family for Mrs. Wang.

"Stew a pheasant for the children's nourishment." Mrs. Wang handed the dirty sweat towel to Xu Da, and ordered by the way.

Xu Yue laughed immediately.

Thinking about the delicious chicken soup, Xu Da endured his disgust and took the sweat towel, chose the fattest pheasant, picked up the kitchen knife and went to the pond.

Only then did Wang pick up the new food that her daughter handed over to taste. The soft taste is similar to eating potatoes, much easier to swallow than rice bran rice balls, and the feeling of fullness is very strong.

After only eating one, Wang felt that her hungry stomach was greatly relieved.

With the water given by the eldest daughter, Wang ate three taro in a row. For the first time since crossing, she felt the happiness of being full.

"How did you find this?" Mrs. Wang asked Xu Yue curiously after eating.

Xu Yue pointed to the surrounding hillsides, "I accidentally saw it on the hillside, it's called taro, don't you know, Aunt?"

Xu Yue has always felt that the members of the family, A Niang, have similar behaviors and views to her own, and she thought they were from the same world.

But obviously, from the taro incident, it can be seen that Wang and her are not in the same world.

Otherwise, how could the people of the Great Heavenly Dynasty, who ate everything, not know about taro!
Wang shook her head, she had never seen a plant like taro.

To be honest, in her eyes, the animals and plants in the world in front of her are all extinct species in the history textbooks, which are too old to be verified.

If it weren't for the memories left by her original body and the survival experience she accumulated from fighting around, she wouldn't be able to adapt to this ancient world so quickly.
