Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 198 Daily Life of Four People

After they left, the originally bustling courtyard suddenly became quiet. All the housework in recent times had been completed and there was nothing else to do.

Everyone chatted briefly in the yard, and then Xu Han went back to her room to sleep.

I got up early this morning and now I feel so sleepy that I can hardly open my eyes. I'd better take a nap and have some rest!

It was already past three in the afternoon when Xu Han woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw that the sun outside was setting, so she hurriedly got out of bed.

After hearing the noise in the yard, Lu Chuan looked back and said, "Wife, you're awake. Are you hungry? There are steamed buns in the pot. Go wash your face and I'll bring them to you."

"Have you had lunch? Why didn't you wake me up? Where are the Taoist priest and the others?" Xu Han asked.

"We did. Grandpa Zhao made noodle soup at noon, and we also had steamed buns. Seeing that you were sleeping soundly, the Taoist priest didn't let me call you."

Then he continued, "The Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao went for a stroll nearby. They were out for a short while and should be back soon."

After Lu Chuan finished speaking, he went into the kitchen and helped Xu Han get out the lunch.

Xu Han went to the backyard and washed her face with cold water to wake herself up.

"Let's water the vegetables first while they are not at home!" said Xu Han.

"Okay, put the water tank next to the chive field for me, and I'll water the chives and shallots first."

After the Taoist priest said those words last time, Lu Chuan and Xu Han agreed that they should try not to use the space in front of Grandpa Zhao, and try to avoid Grandpa Zhao when doing things.

After all, the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better. It’s not because I don’t trust Grandpa Zhao, but because I feel there is no need to do so.

The space is originally used mainly to store things. In daily life, some food can be taken out of the space, but the necessary demonstrations still need to be done.

Xu Han and Lu Chuan have already agreed that next time they take things out of the space, they should try to go to the warehouse to cover it up.

It's better to develop a habit. After all, we can't be as comfortable as before when we lived together. It's better to cover up when necessary.

Although the Taoist priest has said that Grandpa Zhao will not ask anything, something is bound to happen over time, so we should try to control it!

By the time Xu Han finished lunch, Lu Chuan had finished watering the vegetable garden.

The two of them went to the waterfall to fetch water. After fetching water and watering the peppers and sweet potatoes, the Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao had not returned yet.

"It's getting dark, why haven't the Taoist priest and the others come back yet?" Xu Han asked.

"Maybe something delayed him! Don't worry! The Taoist priest is so skilled, no one can hurt him, and Maodou and Huasheng also went with him."

Ever since Maodou was suppressed by the Taoist priest with force last time, he started hiding whenever he saw the Taoist priest. Later, the Taoist priest used some unknown method, but Maodou has been following him closely since yesterday.

It goes wherever the Taoist priest goes, just like a follower.

After hearing what Lu Chuan said, Xu Han didn't care anymore. Seeing that it was getting late, she decided to go and make dinner first!

They had all been having big meals these past two days, and suddenly they wanted to eat some light meals.

So Xu Han made corn porridge for dinner, fried a plate of scrambled eggs with peppers, and made a cold cucumber salad, which she paired with pickled bamboo shoots. It was simple and delicious.

It was not until Xu Han finished cooking dinner that she heard Maodou's voice coming from a distance. Then she saw Maodou rushing in and pounced directly on Xu Han who had gone out to check the situation.

Xu Han staggered and almost fell down after being pounced on. This scene happened to be seen by Lu Chuan who came out and started chasing Maodou with a stick in hand.

Seeing this, Maodou turned back and started running outside, while Lu Chuan chased him for a few steps and then came back.

"This Edamame just can't change this bad habit. Have you forgotten how you two fell last time? Can't you just stay away from it when you see it?" Lu Chuan said helplessly.

"Uh, isn't it too late?" Xu Han suddenly remembered that time when Maodou pounced on her, Xu Han just didn't stand firmly, and the man and the dog fell directly to the ground. Xu Han's butt hurt for a long time, and her butt still hurts when she thinks about it now!

After a while, the Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao came in together, followed by Maodou who was hiding carefully behind Grandpa Zhao.

Maodou really thought that Grandpa Zhao was blocking him! Little did he know that his fat body had already exposed him.

"What's wrong with this child! He just came back happily! Now he hides behind me again in a flash." Grandpa Zhao asked with a smile.

"It deserves a beating. You don't know, it always likes to pounce on Xiaohan. Once, Xiaohan didn't stand firmly, and the man and the dog fell down. Xiaohan's butt hurt for several days and it didn't heal. It hasn't been long since I took care of it, and it started to pounce on Xiaohan again. It won't change no matter how much I beat it." Lu Chuan said angrily.

"It's time to teach him a lesson." After Grandpa Zhao said this, he stepped aside, revealing Maodou, who was left looking at everyone with a wronged look on his face.

Finally, Xu Han couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Forget it, forget it. It didn't fall. It's okay. I'll talk to it again. If that doesn't work, I'll beat it up."

Xu Han said this deliberately. Xu Han knew that Maodou had a very high IQ and could understand many words generally.

Just as Xu Han finished speaking, Maodou came and rubbed Xu Han's legs.

"Master, where were you doing today? Why did you come back so late?" Xu Han changed the subject.

"Didn't I see a lot of fish in the river last time? Today I went fishing with Old Man Zhao. Look how big these fish are."

"Wow, you caught so many fish! Keep them first and I'll make fish soup for you tomorrow." Xu Han said while looking at the big fish in the two buckets.

"Okay, I'll put it in the kitchen first." The Taoist priest said, and happily carried the fish into the kitchen.

Lu Chuan and Xu Han were responsible for bringing tonight's meals to the main room.

During this period, we eat in the main room. Although ice is no longer made in the main room, it is still very cool at night.

It is now the end of August and the weather is gradually getting cooler. It is no longer as hot and humid as before. It is cool in the mornings and evenings, but it is still very hot at noon.

After washing their hands, everyone sat at the dining table in the main room to eat dinner.

"This porridge is really delicious. After being tired of eating big fish and meat, drinking a bowl of porridge is really comfortable." The Taoist priest said while drinking porridge.
