Chapter 848

"We're going to do farm work tomorrow, I hope it won't be too hard."

He was still talking, but the sound of snoring had already begun to come through in fits and starts.

Ning Chen looked over, only to discover that Lin Yi had long since fallen fast asleep.

To be honest, Ning Chen was truly a little envious of Lin Yi's quality of sleep.

Sleep when he wants, wake when he wants.

Carefree, without a single worry.

He didn't know when he'd fallen asleep, and by the time he opened his eyes again, Lin Yi had already gotten up beside him.

"Oh god, I really don't want to get up, I'm way too sleepy?"

At this moment, the two of them suddenly regretted signing up for this show.

So drowsy now that he had no awareness of anything, but he still had to get up and film the show.

Forcing himself to get up, the two of them went to wash up and then headed out.

Teacher San Lei was always the earliest to rise.

Every day he had to get up at the crack of dawn and then make breakfast for everyone.

One had to admit, this kind of persistence also made Ning Chen feel a touch of emotion.

Most ordinary people probably don't have this kind of spirit; just the matter of waking up early is something no one can manage.

"Oh my, why are you up so early? You could have slept a little longer."

Hearing Teacher San Lei's question, Ning Chen also walked over toward that spot.

"Come over and see if there's anything that needs help? How can you manage it all by yourself?"

Hearing Ning Chen's words, Teacher San Lei also laughed.

"That little brat Pengpeng has never once had this idea."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a voice of protest came from behind.

Looking over, he discovered that Pengpeng had already come downstairs rubbing his eyes.

"Teacher San Lei, I heard everything you just said!"

Hearing Pengpeng's words, Teacher San Lei laughed again at this point.

Everyone came downstairs one after another, and their task for today was even more arduous.

Buy the ingredients needed for today, and also go to the fields to help with planting.

Not only that, the peach blossom wine also had to continue being sold.

And this time, the remaining people would split up into groups to act.

"Today Ning Chen comes with me to buy the ingredients we'll need for today and tomorrow, how about it? Or would you rather go sell the peach blossom wine?"

Pfft!

Upon hearing the four words "sell peach blossom wine," Ning Chen was already getting a headache.

Since Teacher San Lei had already called him out by name to go along and buy ingredients together, he naturally couldn't refuse.

"Then it's settled, the rest of you can arrange things yourselves, go wherever you want to go!"

Lin Yi was the first to raise his hand and volunteer for the farm work.

He was extremely curious about what they would be doing; once the others were assigned, they all began their breakfast journey.

And today was another beautiful morning.

After finishing breakfast and tidying up, Ning Chen left the Mushroom House with Teacher San Lei.

Ning Chen had assumed they would drive to a spot outside the village.

However, upon noticing that Teacher San Lei was leaving on foot, he was also a little surprised.

Seeing Ning Chen's startled gaze, Teacher San Lei suddenly burst out laughing.

"What is it? Are you a bit shocked? Thought we were going to a supermarket outside to buy ingredients?"

Hearing Teacher San Lei's inquiry, Ning Chen also nodded subconsciously.

Isn't that the case?!

Seeing this, Teacher San Lei also waved his hand dismissively.

"The things here all need to be bought from the nearby villagers, or bartered for."

"Or we go up the mountain to pick things, or there's plenty in the river around here—we can get some crayfish or fish from it."

After hearing Teacher San Lei's words, Ning Chen finally nodded.

He and Lin Yi had been drifting around outside all along, but neither of them had ever mentioned living a life like this.

But this is the most primitive kind.

【Ning Chen is too cute, he probably never imagined that buying ingredients just means trading for things around the village!】

【One look and you can tell he doesn't know the tricks of the trade here.】

The two of them kept walking, and soon saw a few free-range roosters.

"How about we braise a scallion-oil chicken today?"

Ning Chen was still observing his surroundings; upon hearing Teacher San Lei's words, he also nodded subconsciously.

He quite liked this dish, and the preparation wasn't that taxing either.

Noticing Ning Chen's reaction, Teacher San Lei also laughed out loud.

"Granny!"

Hearing Teacher San Lei's call, Ning Chen also looked over subconsciously.

Only then did he discover that an old granny was actually sitting next to the roosters.

She looked remarkably hale and hearty.

After meeting Teacher San Lei, they also walked over.

"What do you need today?"

It was clear they usually bought supplies here.

Teacher San Lei pointed at the heaviest rooster.

When the rooster was in his hands, Ning Chen still felt somewhat confused.

At the same time, he controlled its two wings, trying to keep it from running away.

After all, he had paid money to buy it.

And the money spent was earned by them selling peach blossom wine desperately yesterday.

"Do we still need to buy anything else now?"

Hearing Ning Chen's question, Teacher San Lei also looked around.

Today's main dish is scallion oil chicken, so naturally we cannot serve just this one dish.

"In a while, let's go into the water to catch a fish or a crayfish; today I'll make something spicy and refreshing for you."

Holding the rooster, Ning Chen also nodded subconsciously.

【I feel Brother Shiguang has always been in a rather dazed state.】

【If you ask a Grand General to wash his hands and cook, he would definitely look just as dazed.】

【This description is too fitting; usually they fight and kill to help catch bad guys, but now they actually have to worry about the food they eat.】

After placing the rooster inside the Mushroom House, Ning Chen and Teacher San Lei also went to the riverside.

Along the way, they met Lin Yi and the others, who were playing and laughing in the fields.

It looked like they were having a wonderful time.

"Teacher San Lei, Ning Chen, what are you going to do?"

Facing Pengpeng's question, Teacher San Lei also pointed toward the riverside.

Everyone understood this, since they usually went to the riverside to get some ingredients.

At the same time, they also arrived at the riverside location.

Lin Yi was quite curious, so he ran over along with them.

"Are you going to dig for crayfish?"

Ning Chen nodded, and immediately placed the small bucket aside.
