Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

the next day.

Chang Dashan woke up early and, upon learning that he had almost become sworn brothers with Cheng Rongjiang while drunk the night before, felt embarrassed and immediately ran up the mountain to cut grass to feed the chickens.

The marriage proposal fell through, and instead, she and Cheng Rongjiang got drunk together, causing quite a stir...

As Chang Kun was washing up in the yard, Liu Meilin walked in carrying a burlap sack.

"Uncle, so early."

"What do you mean 'early'? Those who went to the fields have been working for half a day." Liu Meilin held up the bag in her hand: "I brought over the pig's head that your aunt cooked."

"Uncle, this is for you, keep it and eat it."

"No, the fatty meat and pork leg you gave me are still plentiful, enough to last for a while." As she spoke, Liu Meilin walked into the main room, opened the bag, and revealed the pork head meat wrapped in taro leaves.

Hearing the commotion, the little girls all got up and called out "Uncle" and "Father".

Liu Meilin smiled and looked at the girls, then tore off a few pieces of meat from the pig's head and gave them to them to eat.

"Xiao Shui, come home with Daddy."

Xiao Shui bit into the pig's head meat, turned her head to one side, and shook it like a rattle drum.

My aunt's family has many sisters, lots of toys, and even more delicious food.

Go home? What for? To eat wild vegetable porridge?

Only a fool would go back!

What do seven- or eight-year-old girls know? They just like to stay wherever there are fun things to do and delicious food, without thinking too much.

Moreover, her aunt, brother, and sisters all treated her very well. In just two short days, she experienced the joy of this place and didn't miss it at all.

Liu Meilin glared at Xiao Shui, but seeing that she was just eating meat with her head down and ignoring her, she was about to go up and scold her for not wanting to leave her aunt's house.

At this moment, Liu Meifen walked in: "Meilin, Xiaoshui likes to stay here, so let her stay for a few days and let the sisters get to know each other better. It will be more inconvenient to visit each other after we move to the city in a couple of days."

"But we eat this every day..."

"Don't think about anything else. When has your nephew ever lacked food?" Liu Meifen interrupted her brother, raising her hand to indicate the eggs in her hand and the pig's head meat on the stove.

Liu Meilin looked at Xiao Shui's oily lips, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded: "Alright, she's living a good life with her aunt."

"Xiao Shui, behave yourself here, okay?" He turned to his daughter and instructed her.

"I've also learned several words, all taught to me by Xiaoqing." Xiaoshui grinned. Her aunt's house was fun and delicious, as long as she didn't have to go home.

"Alright, remember to help your aunt with some chores."

"Yes, my aunt bought me new shoes." Xiao Shui lifted her foot to show her father her new shoes.

"Big sister, what kind of shoes are you buying for the child? She still has some new shoes that Xiao Kun gave her." Liu Meilin squatted down and touched Xiao Shui's new shoes. They felt soft and were obviously made of good quality material.

"Stop nagging, let me try the pig's head meat." Liu Meifen didn't want to talk about these things with her brother, so she picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth.

"How did Xiaoshui's mother cook this? It tastes bland! I should have cooked this pig's head myself..."

After chewing a few times, she curled her lip in disgust. Her cooking skills were terrible, not even as good as hers.

Upon hearing this, Chang Kun picked up a piece of pig's head meat, tasted it, and indeed, it really didn't have much flavor.

My aunt and my mother are probably about the same in terms of cooking skills.

"Never mind, I'll go ask Old Zhu across the street for some seasoning packets and put them in the pot to stew again." With plenty of meat at home, Liu Meifen has started to pay more attention to the taste.

Upon hearing this, Chang Kun immediately perked up. He had been wanting to find someone to buy some hot pot base packets, as the argali sheep in his spatial dimension was waiting to be used in hot pot.

"Mother, who are you asking for the ingredient packet from?"

"The state-run restaurant across from the supply and marketing cooperative, the head chef, Old Zhu, I heard his cooking skills are superb."

"Is that the tall, fair-skinned, skinny guy?" Chang Kun remembered that when he went to the supply and marketing cooperative, he would occasionally see a skinny guy standing in front of the state-run restaurant across the street.

"That's Old Zhu's brother. He's the manager of the state-run restaurant. Old Zhu is a big fat man with a shiny face. Anyone who sees him knows he's a cook."

Chang Kun chuckled and turned to Liu Meilin: "Uncle, I'll steam some egg cakes for you. Let's eat some together before I take you to work."

He remembered that Xiaoqing didn't like eating egg yolks yesterday.

Liu Meilin shook her head: "It's good enough that they have eggs to eat, let alone making sponge cakes. You really spoil them."

"If we don't spoil our own little sisters, who will?" Chang Kun patted the heads of the little girls; each of them was so adorable.

I cracked eight eggs, divided them into four bowls, beat the egg mixture with chopsticks, poured in cooled boiled water, and added a little salt.

Several little girls watched with great interest.

Chang Qing spoke up: "Big brother, this feels so simple."

"It's simple to begin with. If you study hard, you can show off your skills when you grow up and marry into your husband's family."

"Go to my in-laws' house? Like my older sister, having to stay there every day? No way! We want to live in our own home!"

The other little girl chimed in, "Living in our own home!"

The others laughed heartily, saying that these young girls would understand once they got married; no matter how close they were to their parents' home, they could never live there year-round.

Once the water in the pot boiled, Chang Kun turned down the flames in the stove, placed several bowls of egg mixture on the pot sill, covered the bowls with taro leaves, and put the pot lid on to steam them slowly.

"You need to wait for the water to boil before putting the egg mixture into the pot. The flame shouldn't be too high, and it will be done after steaming for a while."

Chang Kun taught the group some simple tips.

The others, including women like Liu Meifen and Chang Mei who were in charge of cooking, had never made steamed eggs before and had no idea how to do it.

Liu Meilin patted Chang Kun on the shoulder: "I've really learned something today. My nephew is not only good at hunting, but he's also an exceptional cook."

After turning off the heat and opening the pot, the little girls stared at the white and tender steamed cake, which was steaming hot. They couldn't help but lean closer to smell it, and the faint aroma of eggs was extremely tempting.

The food was served on the octagonal table. Chang Qing and Chang Xiu ate one bowl, Chang Mu and Xiao Shui ate one bowl, and the little girls picked up a small piece with their chopsticks and carefully put it into their mouths.

No chewing is required at all; it melts with just a slight touch of the tongue, and the sponge cake slides down the throat into the stomach.

Chang Qing took only one bite, then her eyes widened, and she turned to shout, "Uncle, Mother, Big Brother, eat up! It's delicious!"

Liu Meifen and Liu Meilin simply declined, saying, "You guys eat first, we'll wait."

This is a basic practice for parents: when there's something delicious, they let the children eat it first, and only then do they get to eat what's left over.

"Uncle, Mom, eat quickly, they won't taste good if they get cold. We have enough eggs, we can just steam more if we need more," Chang Kun urged.

And so, Liu Meifen and her brother shared a bowl.

While eating, Liu Meilin loudly praised, "Xiao Kun, your cooking is excellent! Whoever marries you is truly blessed!"

Liu Meifen smiled to herself, her son's actions bringing her, his mother, great pride.

After finishing the sponge cake, Chang Kun noticed that his father hadn't returned home yet, so he rode his bike to take his uncle to work in the city.

On the way, Liu Meilin chatted with Chang Kun: "Xiao Kun, I heard that something strange happened at the Miyun Reservoir in the north, which is more than halfway done. Do you know about it?"

"Miyun Reservoir?" Chang Kun thought for a moment, "Uncle, are you talking about Bailong and Heilong?"

"That's it! The rumors are so true, I heard some people even saw dragon sons and grandsons! That dragon ate the old ox that was hauling soil!"

Chang Kun chuckled. These legends are far-fetched.

As a tourist attraction in later generations, Black Dragon Pool has many flaky marks on the rock walls around the pool, which tour guides have described as dragon scales shed by a black dragon.

If dragons really existed, they would have been captured on high-resolution satellite images long ago.
