Wen Yao almost blurted out "Dad", but luckily she turned a corner when she reached her mouth.

"Dad, you're back." Wen Yao was the first to run up. He had already stood up. He seemed to have thought of something and stood still.

Wen Xiuyi and Wen Yao saw the child's reaction in their eyes. Just when Datou was at a loss, he suddenly jumped into the air.

"Son, do you miss your father?" Wen Xiuyi said with a smile while holding his thin and small head.

Datou seemed a little overwhelmed by his sudden move. His whole body was stiff and he didn't even dare to move.

Seeing the frightened and contradictory look in his eyes, Wen Xiuyi felt distressed, so he simply held the big head with one hand, reached into his clothes with the other hand, and took out a small clay doll.

Datou's eyes lit up.

"Do you like it? Dad bought it specially for you." Wen Xiuyi handed the clay doll to Datou.

Datou looked at it carefully, and the look of wanting to take it but not daring made Wen Xiuyi laugh for a while, and he stuffed the clay doll directly into his hand.

Seeing the joy in the child's eyes, Wen Xiuyi felt a little relieved, then turned around and silently gestured to his two children:

He is still young. When dad earns money, he will also buy toys for you.

The brother and sister were speechless for a while. They were not really 16 and [-] years old, so how could they be jealous of a baby with milk.

Wen Xiuyi sat down with his head in his arms and pointed at the thing in his hand that Wen Jun had just taken.

"I bought one catty of meat and two catties of flour. Yaoyao, please watch and do it."

When Wen Yao heard that there was still meat, his eyes lit up.

"Dad, did you make money today? Did you find a job?" Wen Yao asked.

Wen Xiuyi smiled awkwardly: "What? Dad's reputation was not good before, and many shops did not hire him, so he went to work as a porter at the dock for a day. It was okay. I earned fifty cash today. I will leave at noon. I bought two steamed buns for two cents, a pound of meat for twelve cents, a pound of flour for six cents, and a clay figurine for Datou for two cents. There are still 22 cents left, all here. Yes, here you go."

After saying that, he took out dozens of copper coins from his bag and handed them to Wen Yao.

Just as he was about to take his hand back, he was caught by a pair of small hands.

I saw Datou carefully opening Wen Xiuyi's hand. When he saw the blisters on the palm of his hand, he was stunned for a moment. He just stared at Wen Xiuyi's hand, looked at it and then at him, and soon his eyes were filled with circles. It's red.

Wen Yao and Wen Jun also saw it.

"father!"

Wen Xiuyi smiled and took his hand back, and touched his youngest son's head distressedly, and then said: "It's inevitable to move, it's inevitable. It'll be fine if you get used to it, but once you make money, you can still be regarded as a father." It’s a waste of time, Yaoyao, hurry up and cook, we’re all starving to death.”

Listening to his seemingly cheerful tone, Wen Yao's nose felt sour. She took the ingredients from Wen Jun's hand and started to process them.

"Brother, help me cut a piece of bamboo, and I'll make noodles for you to eat."

Wenjun exclaimed and left.

With her back to Wen Xiuyi and the others, Wen Yao dared to quietly raise her hand to wipe away the tears that fell from her eyes.

Her father had been a professor all his life. Although he also had to work in the fields, farming at that time was completely different from what it is now. What's more, he had to work hard for a day, which made Wen Yao feel sad when he thought about it.

A pound of meat is not much, both fat and lean. Wen Yao trimmed off the fat and fried it in an iron pot. Although it was small, it was still oily and meaty. He also cut the lean meat into strips. There were also a few cabbages in the cellar behind the house. , Wen Yao took it, washed it and cut it into pieces.

Stir-fried the shredded pork and added water. Fortunately, I exchanged achievement points for some salt today. When the water boiled, I put the chopped cabbage down. A fragrance soon spread in the small courtyard, and even the big head was He sniffed hard, trying to retain the smell.

After preparing these, Wen Yao began to knead the dough. Fortunately, the noodles were easy to make. When the water in the pot boiled, the dough was ready.

I saw Wen Yao holding the dough in one hand and the bamboo slices in the other hand and starting to peel it. Datou was stunned by this neat technique.

First he was confused, then he was surprised, and finally he looked at Wen Yao with admiration in his eyes.

Wen Xiuyi saw his youngest son's reaction in his eyes and did not explain too much. No matter what, this child will live with them in the future, regardless of whether he is precocious or not, and regardless of whether he sees it or not. After all, he must learn to get used to it and adapt.

Soon a pot of shaved noodles was cooked, and it was paired with the broth Wenyao had cooked previously. It was so delicious.

If it weren't for the limited ingredients and seasonings, Wen Yao, a gourmet anchor with hundreds of thousands of fans on a certain channel, would definitely make them a bowl of noodles that would make their tongues devour it.

"Eat slowly, be careful not to burn it." Wen Yao filled a bowl for Da Tou, and then some for the three of them. The family of four sat next to the fire and ate the noodles.

It only has the aroma of salt and meat. Although the taste is simple, it is the best shaved noodles that a family of three has ever eaten.

"There is a river called Pingjiang next to Yunwu Town. There are quite a lot of merchant ships coming and going. There are a lot of people working at the dock. Yaoyao, you can use the remaining noodles to steam some steamed buns in a while. I will bring them with you tomorrow, so there is no need. Spend money to buy food." Wen Xiuyi told Wen Yao while eating.

Wen Yao asked, "Dad, is the pier big? Are there many people?" She suddenly had some ideas.

Wen Xiuyi nodded: "It's quite big, with a lot of merchants and workers coming and going."

Wen Yao's eating speed slowed down, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

After eating the noodles, Wenjun consciously went to wash up. The big eyes looked at his elder brother washing the dishes with surprise. He was curious about the baby's daily life. Everything he saw was really strange.

Wen Xiuyi also found out about Wen Yao and the others who went up the mountain to dig up Tianmendong.

"I do know about this thing. I have heard people say it is a good thing before. How are you going to get it?" Wen Xiuyi almost let it slip and quickly made up for it.

Wen Yao said: "Dad, we will go to the city with you tomorrow. Firstly, we will see how much Mendong can be sold for today. Secondly, I want to go to the pier and have a look. I have an idea and I need to go shopping first."

Wen Xiuyi raised his eyebrows: "Oh? How to say it."

Wen Yao quickly said: "Dad, did you go to the pier today and see anyone setting up a stall there?"

Wen Xiuyi nodded: "Yes, it's quite lively, and there are quite a lot of food and supplies for sale, you mean?"

Wen Yao subconsciously snapped her fingers: "Yes, it's what you thought. Anyway, let's see if it works first and then think of a solution."

She had wanted to find a job as a cook, or just follow the example of the protagonists in time-travel novels and sell a recipe or something, wouldn't it make money?

But this idea was rejected by Wen Xiuyi as soon as it was proposed. There were no ten-year-old girls here to serve as cooks. It would take at least ten years for a master chef to lead an apprentice before he could do it alone, or it would be those who A kitchen girl bought by a wealthy family.

It was impossible for him to sell Wen Yao to someone as a maid, so he naturally disagreed.

As for selling formulas, the idea is good, but they have no foundation and no financial resources. To put it bluntly, they don’t understand the principle of harboring a treasure, so they have to take it step by step and act steadily.

Since Wen Xiuyi said that a stall could be set up at the pier, why don't they set up a stall?As far as Wenyao's cooking skills are concerned, no matter how affordable they are, they won't have to worry about running out of business.
