After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 54 Life is not easy, the baby sighs

The eight chickens Lin Chunniang bought back then have now grown up. She killed one and made soup to send to Mr. Lin’s second uncle. Among the remaining seven, one was a rooster, and the other six hens were laid down one after another. Egg.

Yuniang picked up six warm eggs today, but she was very happy.

She would share the good news with every person in the family who came back.

Lin Dayou was very pleasantly surprised: "It's great. We can eat eggs laid by our own chickens in the future." There is no need to ask others to buy them.

Lin Chunniang came out of the small hut with a large bowl of steamed eggs and called to the two of them: "Go and wash your hands and eat."

Lin Dayou put down the bamboo basket and took his little sister's hand to the stone trough to wash her hands.

Today's dinner was very sumptuous, including egg and mushroom soup, steamed eggs, and water chestnut chicken cooked slowly in a clay pot over low heat.

Stone chicken is a frog that lives in springs in the mountains. It tastes a bit like chicken, so it is called "stone chicken", but it is far more delicious than chicken, and even has a hint of sweetness when you taste it carefully.

It had been raining for several days recently, and the springs on the mountain had also surged, causing pheasants to emerge from the cracks in the rocks.

After the rain stopped and the water gradually receded, Lin Dayou went to the mountains to search, and sure enough he caught a lot of pheasants.

Most of it was sold to restaurants, and a small amount was kept for home consumption.

He specially picked out the remaining part and sent it to a separate courtyard on the mountain.

Lin Chunniang served a bowl of water chestnut chicken to her younger sister, "Be careful not to burn it and eat it slowly."

Yu Niang ate without raising her head, "Yeah."

Lin Chunniang couldn't help but smile when she saw her cheeks bulging from eating, and started eating herself.

The water chestnuts soaked in soup taste crunchy, sweet, and have a meaty taste, which is more delicious than meat.

"Fortunately we found the boat after the water receded, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to collect such delicious water chestnuts."

Every year in early summer, large areas of wild water chestnuts grow in nearby ponds and lakes. Unfortunately, in the past, the Lin family did not have a boat and could not go into the water. They could only watch the villagers go to pick water chestnuts in groups, and they were so greedy.

This year they also joined the water chestnut harvesting team and gained a lot.

Lin Dayou: "Yeah, luckily the boat was recovered, otherwise I wouldn't be able to fish. It would cost a lot of money to buy a new boat."

What the Lin family didn't know was that the boat they recovered was not the original one.

Instead, Lin Wushang had someone put it there specially for them to pick up.

The new boat and the old boat were of the same style and had the same appearance, so they did not recognize them.

As for the old boat, Lin Wushang sent many people to find it after a lot of effort. The reason why it was not returned to the Lin family was to find out her life experience through the boat that carried Lin Xi.

Perhaps we can also find some clues about the Black Eagle Sect through the boat.

Lin Chunniang asked Lin Dayou: "Have you met Mr. Lin's second uncle?"

Lin Dayou shook his head, "I didn't see him. I only saw a servant in the other courtyard. He said that the young master didn't want to see anyone and asked me to take the things away. I thought that I couldn't live up to Young Master Lin's instructions, so I still Put your things down.”

Lin Chunniang: "It's right to leave things behind. Young Master Lin saved our lives. Compared with our lives, the food is nothing. No matter how they deal with it, our wishes will be fulfilled."

"Yeah."

A milky cry came from the bed. Cui Niang quickly put down her chopsticks and picked up Xi Bao who woke up.

He rubbed his cheek against her forehead and said, "Xibao is awake, do you want to pee?"

Lin Xi shook her head. She had no intention of peeing at the moment. She was awakened by the smell of food.

After drinking milk for several months, she was tired of it and wanted to eat meat crazily.

I can't help but drool when I see the meat. I can't stop it.

Her big, bright eyes were staring straight at the dishes on the table, and her little hands were reaching over there, with five pink jade insect-like fingers constantly grasping, as if she could grab the dishes from the air. .

The Lin family were all struck by how cute she looked like a greedy little cat.

Lin Chunniang: "Xibao, do you want to eat meat? You haven't grown teeth yet. We will feed you when you grow teeth. Come on, let me try some egg custard first." She dipped her chopsticks into some egg custard and fed it to her. To Lin Xi.

Lin Xi couldn't wait to suck it. Ah, she finally tasted food other than milk.

She still wanted to eat, but Lin Chunniang was afraid of damaging her belly and didn't dare to feed her more.

Lin Xi clenched her fists and kicked Cui Niang's legs with her little feet.

Ah, when will she be able to grow teeth, speak, and grow up!
On the painting boat in the center of the lake.

Lin Wushang breastfed Lin Xi, but she turned her face away, showing her disdain for milk.

He looked at her chubby face and felt his teeth itching, wanting to bite her.

Of course, I was just thinking about it, and I never dared to put it into practice, otherwise she was afraid that she would slap her in the face.

"I do not want to eat?"

Lin Xi turned around, stared at him with burning eyes, and said silently: "I want to eat meat."

Lin Wushang was amused by her, and in her angry eyes, Shi Shiran said, "I remember, you haven't grown teeth yet."

This sentence is simply heartbreaking.

She spat out words like she was cursing, but what came out were just some meaningless syllables, with a milky voice and no lethality.

Moreover, there was a string of crystal saliva flowing from the corner of her mouth, which further damaged her image.

Lin Xi: "..."

Lin Wushang tried his best to hold back his laughter until his cheeks became stiff.

He turned away from her and coughed for a while before returning to normal.

"When you get older, I'll have someone cook you minced meat porridge, okay? Make it soft and mushy, and the minced meat will melt into the porridge..."

While coaxing her, he took out a handkerchief to wipe her saliva.

Lin Xi also knew that she couldn't eat meat now, but knowing that was one thing, she couldn't control it rationally.

It's all because the baby's body and brain are not fully developed yet, which affects her mind.

Life is not easy, the baby sighs.

The little man sighed seriously, and Lin Wushang couldn't help but laugh again.

Lin Xi slapped him in the face and smiled, what's so funny.

Um?Why does the handkerchief he used to wipe her saliva look familiar?

It seems to have been embroidered by Cui Niang.

Lin Wushang noticed her gaze and confirmed her guess: "This handkerchief was embroidered by Lin Cuiniang, and Lin Erxi sold it to an embroidery shop, which is my family's property.

"The embroidery ladies in the embroidery workshop said that many of the stitches on the embroidery were new to them."

He met her eyes and said, "You asked me to make a set of embroidery toys before, just to teach Lin Cuiniang embroidery stitches, right?"

Lin Xi: "What do you want to say?"

Lin Wushang: "Didn't you say before that many things in later generations have been mechanized? Clothes are no exception, but why are you proficient in embroidery skills?"

Lin Xi: "Is this your first question today?"

There were only three opportunities to ask questions each time, so Lin Wushang naturally didn't want to waste it on such questions.

"Just say it if you don't want to. Come on, drink this bowl of milk."

Lin Wushang picked up the milk and fed her. He found that after she was full, she would become easier to talk to.
