Rebirth: Peasant Girl is Good at Farming

Furthermore, Mr Xue often brought Ah Mu to eat together with his. Every time the old granny cooking at Mr Xue's house saw Ning Yan, he would reveal a hidden bitterness in his eyes.

This made Ning Yan guilty, and she almost gave up her cooking method.

With regards to the Mr Xue s that were uninvited, what could Ning Yan do? She continued to walk towards the kitchen and cook some more noodles.

Since there was still a lot of bone soup at home, after feeding Mr Xue, Ning Yan sat down and continued to eat.

Mr Xue wandered around the courtyard and saw that there were many cows in the stable.

"Girl Ning, you want to be a big shot who raises cattle?"

"No, I've been thinking about making some milk for you to drink and replenishing the calcium."

"…" Mr Xue did not understand what calcium was, but he did not want to recall what milk tasted like.

When he was young, he drank this stuff to satisfy his hunger. The taste... Mr Xue looked at Ning in pity.

Looking at Mr Xue's expression, Ning Yan could guess that Mr Xue had drank pure milk without any additives. Milk needed to be repeatedly heated, but could not be heated up or the nutrients would go bad.

It's best to add some sugar or honey to help reduce the fishy smell.

Ning Yan's thoughts did not tell the Mr Xue, but, how should he deal with honey?

"You need honey?" Mr Xue's eyes and ears were sharp, he directly asked after hearing Ning Yan's mutterings.

"Yes, honey is a good thing."

"If you want honey, you can trade it with the mountaineers, but you have to be careful not to get discovered."

"Mountain folk?" Ning Yan immediately reacted.

The villagers were the underlings of this era. For various reasons, there were a lot of people who could not pay taxes and hid in the mountains to avoid taxes. As time passed, a lot of people would gather.

These people had dug up their own land in the mountains. Even if they made a harvest, they would not have to pay taxes. They could live on with their lives.

Other than being unable to appear openly and be unable to take the examinations, he seemed no different from any other person.

However, there were ferocious beasts in the mountains, and the environment was even worse than the beasts.

However, once they reached the mountain, there was no room for them to descend. No matter which dynasty they came from, any officials who met the villagers would be treated as bandits.

Therefore, one had to be careful when dealing with mountain people.

"I will pay attention. Does Mr Xue know this much about mountain people?" Ning Yan saw that Mr Xue's face was a little unnatural and immediately understood what was going on.

The old man had certainly not dealt with the mountaineers twice.

It was time to stop asking.

"The mountain people live on the mountain, and almost every adult male can hunt. The land on the mountain isn't too good, so they don't lack meat or food. If you want to trade with the mountain people, you can use books or food."

"I know." Ning Yan nodded.

She was not lacking in food at all.

Although she had no land of her own, shesheould buy land like this, so she had to buy it. Next year, she had to expand her cotton crop, and he could not lack chili peppers. Thinking about it this way, Ning Yan immediately became full of energy.

After the Mr Xue left, Ning Yan carried a sack full of food and walked up the mountain. The mountain people lived deep in the mountains, and they couldn't find them just by looking around.

After finding the place the Mr Xue was talking about, Ning Yan could already see the scattered mountaineers dressed in tattered clothes.

When they saw Ning Yan, they fled as if they were mice that had seen a cat.

Especially for children, their speed of escape was even faster than monkeys. It was probably because they had been taught a lesson many times by their families, and when they saw outsiders, it was as if they had seen a ferocious beast. From this, it could be seen that the mountain people's living environment wasn't very good.

After a long while, four to five men holding onto firewood knives walked over and surrounded Ning Yan.

Ning Yan threw a sack of food on the ground, then extended her hands out in a sign of surrender, one of the men with a scar on his face stepped forward and opened the sack, seeing the food, he turned and gave his comrade a look.

"What are you doing here?"

"Exchange for something." Ning Yan said in a very frank manner.

However, the mountain villager who was no different from a frightened bird did not trust Ning Yan just because of this reason. He continued to ask Ning Yan: "Who told you to come?"

"Mr Xue."

"…" Ning Yan did not try to hide anything. Since the Mr Xue dared to tell her about the villagers, she must have a reason.

The Mr Xue guy had a purpose for saying anything.

Talking to this person required one's brain to be extremely tense at all times, otherwise, one would be tricked.

When the mountain villager heard the words' Mr Xue ', the defenses on his face lessened. He retracted the machete in his hand.

How could the Mr Xue be so influential amongst these villagers? Ning Yan was deep in thought.

"What are you exchanging here?"

"Honey." With milk at home, honey was something that couldn't be taken away from. Otherwise, the taste would be much worse.

"Just you wait." The man with the scar on his face winked at one of the men.

The man withdrew.

It was nearly an hour before the man came back with a jar.

Opening the jar, Ning Yan saw the honey inside.

"Then I'll go back first."

After Ning Yan finished speaking, the mountain people did not stop him and watched Ning Yan leave from afar.

Ning Yan carried the jar for a while and glanced behind him from the corner of her eyes.

Why are you so worried?

This was a worrisome situation!

Ning Yan suddenly remembered that Zhao Liang had followed the constables to kill the Mountain Bandits.

Throwing the thought to the back of her mind, Ning Yan pretended not to notice anyone behind him.

Ning Yan continued to walk down the mountain until she reached the foot of the mountain. It was already dark, and Ning Yan was still moving forward calmly, but the Qi of the people following him had already become chaotic.

After hesitating for a while, Ning Yan did not pick him out. Ning Yan walked towards the foot of the mountain, but instead walked towards Mr Xue's home.

Who knows if these villagers are good people or not. Even if there's Chen Huo at home, they wouldn't let down their guard, right?

When she arrived at the entrance of the Mr Xue's residence, Ning Yan realised that the person following him had already left.

As he knocked on the door, a few lanterns were hung in the yard, illuminating it.

Ah Mu squatted in the pharmacy as he put something unknown into his mouth.

Perhaps the medicine was too bitter, Ah Mu frowned.

Seeing the Mr Xue drinking tea by the side, Ning Yan directly asked, "Is he trying to taste a hundred herbs?"

"The only way to distinguish the herbs is to identify them. You can try it now. In a few years, I'll use their smell to identify them."

"…" Ning Yan suddenly felt that a calm future would not be easy.

Isn't the taste of medicinal herbs always bitter?

"Did you get the honey?"

"Yes." Ning Yan refused to part with the jar in her hands, and facing the Mr Xue's gaze, Ning Yan took a step back: "Don't think about honey, at most, I can bring two bowls of milk over everyday."

"…" Mr Xue waved his hand and chased Ning Yan out. Milk, not to drink, not to eat anything related to milk for the rest of my life.

Ning Yan walked out of the Xue Family courtyard with a mischievous smile in her eyes. Mr Xue had been slapped so many times, why didn't she have a good memory?
