When Yao Zhi walked out of the backyard, she saw Yang Dalang and his brothers busy unloading the materials. She walked over and asked, "Brother Dalang, why not carry the materials to the backyard?"
"Sister Yao, the cart is too big. We can’t push it past the gate. We will carry the materials later."
Hearing this, Yao Zhi nodded and said, "I want to build the room at the back, near the wasteland."
"Can you show the place?"
"Sure, this way, please."
While they went to the backyard, the rest of the Yang brothers continued to unload the materials.
Yao Zhi brought Yang Dalang to the area near the mud oven and pointed at the empty land. "Brother Dalang, can you build the house here? Since Shi’er will be responsible for guarding the land, it will be more convenient for him to stay here."
Yang Dalang looked at the area and nodded. This place was 20 ters away from the kitchen and quite far from Yao Zhi’s room. Even if Ling Shi’er stayed here, it wouldn’t tarnish their reputation.
The empty land was also large enough to build one big room and a side room. The side room could be used to store things later.
"No problem."
"Then thank you for your help in advance, Brother Dalang," Yao Zhi said with a smile.
"We receive paynt, so this is what we should do."
After telling him the requirents she wanted for the room, Yao Zhi returned to the kitchen. Although she didn’t provide lunch for them, she still boiled several pots of drinking water.
The weather was cold and dry, so besides plain water, she also prepared two pots of ginger licorice tea. When the tea was ready, she called out, "Shi’er."
Soon after, Ling Shi’er walked into the kitchen and asked, "Master, what’s your order?"
"Help bring this pot of tea to the Yang brothers. The weather is cold and dry, so you should drink so too. Don’t catch a cold."
While saying this, Yao Zhi scooped a big bowl for him, a bowl for herself, and a bowl for Xi Qi. Then she filled a waterskin with ginger licorice tea for her husband. The rest was given to the Yang brothers.
After he finished the tea, Ling Shi’er brought the pot of tea to the backyard and distributed it to everyone.
After he left, Yao Zhi stored the waterskin in her system’s storage and started making jianbing in the kitchen. She used turkey eggs from her system’s husbandry.
Compared to chicken eggs, they have a richer, creamier, and more intense flavor due to the larger yolk. One turkey egg offers nearly double the calories, fat, and protein of a chicken egg.
Since they had harder shells and mbranes, she had to crack them open using the back of a cleaver. She cracked 3 eggs into a large bowl and whisked them loose.
For the sauces and fillings, she bought them from the system shop for 15 points per package. One package was enough for 20 portions of jianbing. She bought 2 packages and spent a total of 30 points.
The sauces were soybean paste and chili sauce. As for the fillings, they included scallions, cilantro, minced pork, pork floss, diced pickled radish, sausage, hot dog, and lettuce.
Using the flat iron pan, she worked efficiently. Soon after, the aroma of fragrant jianbing filled the air. As the wind blew, everyone in the backyard couldn’t help but salivate.
Using two flat iron pans, she managed to finish cooking in one hour. Thanks to the stove keeping the kitchen warm, although the temperature was cold, the jianbing was still warm even after being put aside for a long ti.
Yao Zhi divided the jianbing into two portions. One portion was for her, Xi Qi, and Ling Shi’er’s breakfast and lunch. She and Xi Qi didn’t eat much, so she only kept 10 pieces for them.
The rest was wrapped in oil paper and placed in a bamboo basket. She stored the bamboo basket in her system’s storage before she called out, "Shi’er, co and have breakfast first."
Hearing this, Ling Shi’er stopped what he was doing and went to wash his hands. When he entered the kitchen, he saw his master putting sothing into the bamboo stear on top of the stove.
"Your portion is inside the bamboo stear. After breakfast, I will go visit my husband. You stay at ho and supervise the workers. I will bring Xi Qi with ."
Ling Shi’er nodded and said, "Understood."
Yao Zhi brought the ginger licorice tea and jianbing into her room. When she entered the room, she saw Xi Qi snoring while leaning on Ye Ying’s stomach.
Seeing this, she smiled and said, "Both of you did a good job."
She placed the food on the table, closed the door, and poured water into two bowls. Afterward, she added two drops of spiritual spring water into each bowl and said, "This is your reward."
When the wolf cubs heard this, their eyes lit up instantly.
The amount of spiritual Qi in this world was too thin, almost nonexistent. As spiritual beasts, they needed a large amount of spiritual Qi to grow up healthy.
Besides the food given by their master, the only thing that could help them was the spiritual spring water. Therefore, as long as they could get the water, they would do anything.
After Yao Zhi added another spiritual vein fragnt into her spiritual spring water, the amount of spiritual Qi contained in it had increased. One drop of spiritual spring water now was comparable to five drops from the ti she first obtained it.
While she didn’t notice it, Ye Ying and Bai Xue could feel the difference. With such a delicacy in front of them, they abandoned Xi Qi instantly.
Suddenly losing the soft, fluffy pillow, Xi Qi opened his eyes groggily. Seeing his master smiling at him, he sat up and gave her a big grin.
