Chapter 449

Tiezhu ran into the house in a hurry, pulling on his mother's clothes.

Tiezhu's mother rubbed her eyes for a long time before realizing that the person standing in front of her was the real Chen Mo!

"Oh my god, a big star has come to our house!"

Tiezhu's mother was dumbfounded.

If other stars had come, Tiezhu's mother might not have recognized them, but Chen Mo was different.

He was definitely a household-name big star!

"Hello, Auntie, we are from the *Longing for Life* production team, currently recording in Taoyuan Village. We were wondering if we could exchange the radishes we have for some other vegetables."

Yang Mi returned to normal and smiled, stepping forward to explain their purpose to Tiezhu's mother.

Tiezhu also stepped forward to tell his mother how he and Chen Mo had met.

Tiezhu's mother listened in a daze.

After hearing Yang Mi's explanation, Tiezhu's mother finally reacted.

"Yes! My vegetable garden has plenty of vegetables; take whatever you want. We also have homemade cured meat and sausages; you should take some back to taste."

Tiezhu's mother greeted Chen Mo and the others quite enthusiastically.

She didn't care what Chen Mo and the others wanted and immediately turned to her own courtyard.

She picked a large basket of fresh vegetables.

That wasn't the end of it; she also took several jin of cured meat, sausages, and spicy pork ribs.

Finally, she brought out a jar.

"This is the white liquor we brewed ourselves; you should take some back to taste too."

Originally, the three of them had only brought one basket of radishes, but now their hands were filled with food by Tiezhu's mother.

And the process was very fast.

The three of them hadn't even reacted.

"Auntie, we can't take so many things for free; we only need to exchange for something of equal value to the radishes."

When they finally reacted, Chen Mo said with a bitter smile.

"What's the matter with that? Auntie likes you children; take it back to eat, no need to be polite with Auntie."

Tiezhu's mother was very enthusiastic, fully displaying the simple and honest side of rural people.

"If you don't take these things back, you're looking down on Auntie, and Auntie won't be happy."

Fearing that Chen Mo and the others wouldn't accept these things, Tiezhu's mother spoke again.

There was no other way.

Unable to refuse such hospitality, Chen Mo and the others could only take the things back.

However, before leaving, Chen Mo told Tiezhu's mother that he would come back tomorrow to help them work in the fields.

That would count as exchanging for these ingredients.

……

Mushroom House.

Gege and Mei Yanfang were already familiar with how to start a fire and cook; the two were processing ingredients while waiting for Chen Mo and the others to return.

"I wonder if Mo and the others were able to exchange for vegetables."

Gege looked at the door.

If they didn't exchange for vegetables, their side dish for today would only be radishes.

"They should be able to exchange for some small vegetables; potatoes and carrots should be exchangeable."

Mei Yanfang didn't have a clue either.

Every household here grew vegetables; if people had radishes, they might not necessarily exchange them with Chen Mo.

Gege and Mei Yanfang didn't understand, and Taylor understood even less.

They could only wait for Chen Mo to return to know what they would be eating tonight.

"We're back."

Just as Gege and Mei Yanfang were discussing, the voices of Chen Mo and the others sounded outside the courtyard.

Immediately after, they saw Chen Mo, Yang Mi, and Avril enter the house, each holding a large armful of things.

"What's the situation with these?"

Gege and the others were dumbfounded.

This wasn't going to exchange for vegetables; it was basically going to restock.

There were several different types of vegetables alone.

Not to mention the cured meat and sausages.

The most outrageous thing was that Avril was holding a jar of white liquor!

"Did you go to rob someone?"

Taylor looked at the things they brought back in disbelief.

"My god, with all these things, we won't have to go work for the next few days."

Mei Yanfang sighed.

Indeed, the things Chen Mo and the others brought back this time were really too many; not working for a few days would be no problem.

Director's team: ??????

"It's a long story; let's cook first, and I'll tell you after dinner."

Chen Mo laughed, carrying the things into the kitchen first.

The others also followed into the kitchen to help Chen Mo.

Because there were many ingredients today, Chen Mo made several large dishes; besides crayfish, there were dishes like cured pork ribs, which were very sumptuous.

"Taylor, help me watch the fire; add some yellow wine in about 15 minutes."

Chen Mo couldn't watch several pots at once, so he left the fire to Taylor.

"Okay! You can leave it to me."

Taylor nodded, a look of "no problem" on her face.

Seeing that Taylor had no problem alone, Chen Mo hurried to cook other dishes.

15 minutes later.

Taylor lifted the lid.

The overwhelming aroma of crayfish surged out.

"Wow, I didn't expect crayfish could really be this fragrant."

Taylor was greedy, and drool almost flowed out.

"But what did Mo say to add just now? Wine? White liquor?"

Taylor was only focused on looking at the crayfish in front of her and had forgotten what Chen Mo told her to add.

She set her sights on the jar of white liquor that Chen Mo and the others had brought back.

"It must be this; otherwise, Mo and the others wouldn't have brought the white liquor back with the food. Bringing it back means it's also an ingredient."

Hearing her own analysis, Taylor felt she was quite reasonable.

Just after lifting the white liquor, Taylor was in a dilemma again.

How much should she pour?

Looking at the water that was about to dry up, Taylor thought for a moment and simply poured most of the white liquor in, until the white liquor covered the whole pot of crayfish.

"So fragrant, I'm really a little genius."

Taylor happily smelled the crayfish in front of her.

The more she thought, the more she felt she was amazing.

After letting the crayfish simmer on low heat as Chen Mo said, Taylor ran to the other side to help.

About half an hour later.

"Okay, the food is all ready; everyone come and eat."

Chen Mo finished stir-frying the last dish, garlic sprouts with cured meat, and called everyone over to eat together.

"So fragrant."

Everyone smelled the aroma of the food on the table, and their stomachs had long been growling.

"Wait a minute, there's still the crayfish."

Chen Mo suddenly remembered that the crayfish hadn't been served yet, so he quickly scooped it out.
