lie took the water bag in relief.” Okay, good girl.”
The village chief also asked about the situation on the mountain. In fact, the people hadn’t seen the wolf pack, because they didn’t dare to go too deep into the mountain. They stopped beside the small wooden house built by Jiang Chuan’s family on the mountain. They found a relatively safe location and left the recovered wolf cub there before they left.
When they were halfway down the mountain, the villagers heard the howling of wolves and were afraid. They worried that the scent of the wolf cub would attract the pack, so they changed their route to avoid potential danger, which delayed their descent.
Learning that no one was hurt, the village chief was relieved and organized everyone to return to the village.
When they returned to the village, the sky was completely dark and the temperature had dropped. Everyone was huddled against the cold as they made their way home.
Tonight, the village was devoid of the warm lights and smell of cooking that usually greeted them. Almost everyone had been busy up on the mountain today, so nobody had been at home to prepare food.
Exhausted, people were dragging themselves back to their own homes, each thinking about what they would eat tonight.
The best meal would be a porridge made from the shepherd’s purse they had picked today, but Jiang Chuan’s family was going to have a much more luxurious dinner.
By the time they returned, Jiang Xia had already planned that they would definitely eat the lamb they had, no matter what.
They chose the tenderest meat to stew with white radish, perfect for warming themselves after spending a whole day on the mountain and returning so late in the cold night.
They also selected a portion of the lamb meat to make dumplings, as they had been craving this meat for days and today they were finally going to satisfy that craving!
As soon as they arrived home, Jiang Xia securely closed the door, then led the lamb out of the yard and, on a whim, pulled some white radishes from the ground, explaining her plans for the evening meal.
After listening to Jiang Xia, Zhou Lan had a rough idea of how to cook it. She looked at Jiang Xia with a smile and said,” It would be great if I could add a scallion to the soup to enhance the taste.”
Jiang Xia immediately understood. They had gotten many seeds while on the mountain, including scallion seeds that were now flourishing. She quickly went to pull a large scallion from her interspace, along with a piece of ginger that was growing beside it.
Seeing this wasn’t enough, Zhou Lan said to Jiang Chuan, “Dear, do you remember the bag of goji berries in the car? Bring them out and put them in the soup, it will be nutritious.”
Jiang Chuan, composing himself, magically produced a bag of goji berries from his hands.
Jiang Xia praised, “Wow, Dad, it’s becoming increasingly convenient for you to take things from the car. With a blink of an eye, you can get whatever we need from it. That’s amazing!”
Hearing his precious daughter’s praise, Jiang Chuan smiled proudly and replied,” It’s a piece of cake!”
Not only did he bring out the goji berries, but Jiang Chuan also produced a bag of Thirteen-spices seasoning and a jar of Lao Ganma chili sauce.
Using the Thirteen-spice as a barbecue seasoning for grilling the meat was Jiang Chuan’s exclusive secret recipe. Now, they planned to add it to the dumplings, which would surely make them incredibly delicious.
The Lao Gan Ma chili sauce would be perfect for mixing with vinegar as a dipping sauce for the dumplings, making them extra tasty.
Zhou Lan looked at the condiments and said to Jiang Xia in satisfaction,” Alright, go and fetch your sister. Dinner will be ready when you two come back. Dear, help me!”
The last part, of course, was addressed to Jiang Chuan, who happily agreed.
Looking at the atmosphere in the courtyard, Jiang Xia felt more and more the warmth and sweetness of home, just like in modern times.
Without wasting any more time, Jiang Xia hurried to the village chief’s house to pickup Jiang Gu.
In her mind, she imagined Jiang Gu’s big round eyes staring longingly down the road towards their home, waiting for Jiang Xia to come and fetch her.
When she arrived at the village chief’s house, seeing that the entrance was empty, she was puzzled as to why Jiang Gu was nowhere to be seen.
Because Jiang Xia had been delayed on her way home, all the other children had already been picked up by their families, leaving only Jiang Gu. Knowing Jiang Gu’s personality, she would have been waiting anxiously at the door..
