Quickly checking inside the space, the next moment, she was utterly disappointed.
The eggs were still just eggs, not even a shadow of a chicken feather, let alone a chick.
Gu Nian disappointingly took the eggs out of the space and quietly went out to put them back in the kitchen, then returned to bed to continue her nap.
She thought about it, the reason the eggs didn’t hatch was probably because there was no hen!
But all the chickens at home were accounted for, her small hands and feet couldn’t catch any of them.
She slept until the sun was high, and by the time Gu Nian got up, Mrs. Jiang had already returned from the fields and was in the kitchen preparing a meal, "Niannian, do you want to drink pea porridge? Mama will cook it for you, okay?"
Gu Nian was startled into a shiver, "Mama, no, I bought those peas for a reason."
"For what reason?" Mrs. Jiang had already taken the peas out and was about to wash them to put in the pot.
Gu Nian saw that her peas were unharmed, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, "Mama, these are for making money. If it works, our family’s livelihood won’t be a problem anymore."
"You silly girl, what’s so special about peas? They are just good for cooking porridge, though they are a bit hard to cook. Are you planning to sell pea porridge?" Mrs. Jiang said.
Gu Nian shook her head playfully, "I can’t say for sure right now, just wait and see, Mama. When I make it, you’ll know."
"Alright, Mama will see how you make money with peas!" Mrs. Jiang patted her on the head and turned to continue with her tasks.
Lin Sanshui drank last night. Although he wasn’t drunk, after a night’s sleep, his head was still a bit dizzy.
Dahu also indulged in a rare sleep-in, and no one went to disturb him.
When he got up, the family had already had breakfast. Gu Nian quickly went over to Dahu, "Big Brother, will you come with me to grind the peas into powder?"
Actually, she could operate directly in the space with her mind, but in real life, living under the watchful eyes of others, it wasn’t good to make things appear out of thin air in front of others.
Dahu never knew what could be made from ground pea powder, but after yesterday, he had already developed a trust in Gu Nian’s cooking skills.
So, even though he was full of questions, he didn’t say much and decided to listen to Gu Nian. Maybe, while spending the next couple of days at home, he could learn a few more dishes from this adopted little sister.
After they ground the peas into powder and came back, Lin Sanshui also got up.
The weather outside was hot, and Mrs. Jiang was doing needlework inside the house.
Gu Nian had Dahu boil water and adjust the ratio to mix the pea powder into a paste, stirring it all in boiling water until it became thick, then poured it into a basin.
"Alright, Big Brother, let’s go out." Gu Nian looked at the paste in the basin with satisfaction and said.
"This is... done?" He thought his little sister was going to make something delicious, but it turned out to be just a basin of paste.
How was this supposed to be eaten?
Taking it out to glue shoe soles for Mama would make more sense.
"Yeah, let it cool here first. It’ll be ready when we come back."
Gu Nian didn’t notice Dahu’s doubts and skipped outside.
"Sister, let’s go play up in the mountains." Little Hu pulled her and said.
"Okay, is Dad and Big Brother going?" Gu Nian thought about it, she had nothing else to do, maybe she could try her luck in the mountains. Thɪs chapter is updated by NovᴇlFire(.)nᴇt
Moreover, she was also thinking about bringing out the ginseng from her space.
"Dad wants to take us into the mountains to pick peaches. I’m not sure if Big Brother is going."
As Little Hu finished speaking, Gu Nian’s expression involuntarily stiffened for a moment.
