“Sister-in-law, I’ve brought what you wanted.” Xiang Ling’er came over with a large round wooden basin. At the same time, the fire in the kitchen began to burn.

“Wash the wood ears first.”

Ye Muyu squatted down and was about to roll up her sleeves.

With a pair of hands beside her, Chu Heng silently squatted down and gently rolled up her sleeves. His movements were gentle and rigorous.

“Why are you looking at me?” Chu Heng looked up. His good-looking eyes were full of smiles as he looked deeply into her eyes.

Ye Muyu’s ears turned red and she coughed lightly. “I’m just looking.”

“You didn’t expect me to do such a small thing?” Chu Heng raised his eyebrows.

“I didn’t expect it, but I know now. Thank you,” Ye Muyu said seriously.

“Naughty.” Chu Heng’s thin lips parted slightly, and he extended his slender fingers to tap her forehead. Without saying anything, he got up and found a small bamboo stool. He placed it behind Ye Muyu and let her sit down.

When the men of the Xiang family saw this, they were a little surprised.

When Du Heng saw this, he was inexplicably envious. Brother Heng was really blessed. After marrying Ye Muyu, everything he did was justified. On the other hand, even the girl he valued did not have any evil thoughts about him.

While Du Heng was discouraged, he also had deep doubts about his own charm.

“Young Master Du, please sit.” Xiang Laoer quickly brought a stool over.

Du Heng pushed the stool to Xiang Ling’er. “Girl, sit down. Learn from sister-in-law. If you learn this skill, your whole family won’t have to worry about going hungry in the future.”

“Then… Can we learn?” The three daughters-in-law of the Xiang family could not help but ask quietly. They were all restless. Now that there was a job to earn money, they naturally fought to do it.

Du Heng saw that their conversation had diverted their attention, so no one noticed that he had given the stool to Xiang Ling’er. He was in a good mood and curled his lips. “Of course you can. Today, Sister-in-law will teach you how to dry the fungus. If you don’t dry it and eat it directly, you will die, so you must be careful.”

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll learn it now.”

They were frightened, but they trusted Chu Heng, Ye Muyu, and Chu Xingjun. They were already told about the wood ears when they returned. Although they were worried, they did not panic.

Ye Muyu explained to them carefully.

The women listened attentively, and Ye Muyu naturally taught them everything she knew.

Usually, they would use a stove to dry meat and so on. When it came to drying the wood ears, they did not find it strange. The difficulty was in controlling the temperature.

Ye Muyu had already prepared for this without a thermometer. She had already bought some clay from the pottery workshop.

Clay was used to determine the temperature of the fire in the furnace in the pottery workshop of this era.

There was a requirement for the temperature when baking the fungus. The more precise it was, the better the results. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

It took a long time to bake the fungus.

Ye Muyu followed the three daughters-in-law of the Xiang family, Chu Xingjun, and Xiang Ling’er into the kitchen to talk.

Her body was cold to begin with. She was not afraid of heat, but she was afraid of the cold. Therefore, she did not feel uncomfortable when she stayed in the kitchen to bake.

“Ah Yu, have you been busy recently?” Chu Xingjun’s face was filled with kindness as she was making clothes.

This time, Ye Muyu had given them many gifts, including fabric.

Usually, the villagers would buy their own fabric and make their own clothes. They rarely went to buy ready-made clothes. At this moment, the women were sitting in the house and chatting. Other than paying attention to the heat, they were doing some manual work.
