Su Binglan diced green onion and sliced ginger, then poured some wine into the water in the pot.

Fortunately, there was wine in the kitchen. She used it instead of what she had brought in her pocket dimension. Immediately after, she added the sliced ginger to the pot and covered it with the lid.

After starting the fire, Lin Zheng could not help but say, “Master, the firewood here is much easier to burn.’

Su Binglan looked at the weather outside and said, “The wind is more robust in the north, making it easier for firewood to dry outside. However, it’s also easier to start snowing here. The firewood will have trouble drying if there’s a blizzard.

After some consideration, Lin Zheng said, “So, should we get more firewood, Master?”

He knew it snowed much more in the north. The further north he went, the colder he felt this place was compared to Tenghe Town.

Su Binglan nodded. “Yes, we do need more firewood.”

She had brought many things here except for firewood. She suddenly thought she should have brought charcoal. However, she did not expect it to be this cold.

She only considered bringing food, clothes, and other necessities, not charcoal. That was mainly because she had never placed charcoal in her pocket dimension.

‘We wouldn’t need more firewood if I had brought charcoal.’

Lin Zheng said, “l saw many trees near the mountain, Master. The mountain looks big, so I can go there to chop wood since I have nothing to do.”

He knew his grandmaster was not in good health and that his master would probably be staying here for a while. He could not just sit and eat since he had followed Su Binglan here. He had to pull his weight and help them.

Lin Zheng felt he had a significant role to play here. That way, his master would bring him along on future journeys. He had always wanted to travel but knew his abilities were limited.

However, he had learned much from following his master. Moreover, he could experience many things and hone his abilities. He was thrilled to follow his master everywhere.

Li Shi and Zhou Shan were envious of Lin Zheng when they discovered he would travel with Su Binglan. Even Su Wenzhe, Su Wenxiu, and Su Wenwu looked envious of Lin Zheng.

Therefore, Lin Zheng felt he should help as much as possible. If he helped his master do more things, she could relax a little.

Previously, Su Binglan had warned Lin Zheng, Zhou Shan, and Li Shi about the earthquake before it happened. Back then, Lin Zheng hurried home to tell his parents and siblings.

His parents also warned the relatives around them to prepare for it. Knowing that Su Binglan had said this, everyone believed her and stayed safe during the earthquake.

Therefore, Lin Zhengs parents wanted him to do his best for Su Binglan. His parents knew he would get lazy if he stayed home and had nothing to do. Even his unsmiling elder brother would force a smile whenever he saw Lin Zheng.

Lin Zhengs sister-in-law was polite to him, and his nephew liked staying by his side. Lin Zhengs smile grew wider at the thought of this.

Su Binglan looked at the weather outside and said, “No need to rush. There shouldn’t be any snow here for the next few days. You must be tired from our journey, so rest for two days before chopping wood, okay? I’ll go with you and see what the forest looks like.’

The area they lived in was at the foot of a mountain. Su Binglan looked at the scenery on the mountain when she arrived and suspected it was an ancient forest. Perhaps there was something worth finding there.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, many people should live in such a primitive forest. However, Su Binglan noticed only a few families in this village. She also discovered that the few families here were members of the Wei family after talking to Luo Jin’an earlier.

Some were surviving members of the Wei family’s army, while others were people the family had saved. Some even scattered themselves throughout the border. They could not live together, as it would be too obvious a target or make it easier for outsiders to find clues about their whereabouts.

Lin Zheng was excited when he heard his master would follow him to the mountain to see if there were any treasures.

When the water started boiling, Su Binglan put in the ribs and blanched them before removing the foam at the top. Afterward, she washed the blanched ribs and placed them back into the pot.

Then she added water, diced onions, and ginger slices before cooking them over high heat. Soon after, she added the winter melon and continued to boil the soup.

When Su Binglan had almost finished cooking, she added the tofu and some condiments she had brought to season the soup. She wanted to ensure the soup was fresh and delicious.

Sometimes, soup could easily taste bland, making people lose their appet.i.te.

Still, Su Binglan had to ensure her soup was not too thick or light. It had to be tasty and appetizing. That meant there was a need for fire control and seasoning.

After mixing the ingredients, Su Binglan smiled. “This is perfect.”

Lin Zheng smelled a light fragrance and looked at the pork ribs, winter melon, and tofu in the pot. “Master, I can smell how delicious it’ll taste.”

“You’ll know if you’re right after tasting it later. Although the ribs are nutritious, you’ll quickly get hungry again. You need some staple food. If you need a light main dish, make an omelet.” Su Binglan felt it was nutritious enough and easy to digest.

Lin Zheng looked around the stove and asked, “Master, do we have eggs?”

However, as soon as he asked that, he noticed a few eggs on the stove. He blinked and felt like Su Binglan had conjured the eggs like a magic trick. He thought he might be hallucinating.

Lin Zheng could not suppress his words in front of his master. He wanted to express his thoughts but hesitated.

Su Binglan understood her disciple well, saying, “Just speak your mind.”

“M-Master, did you just conjure those eggs?”

Su Binglan raised her brows. “Would you believe me if I said I conjured them?”

She did not look at Lin Zhengs expression as she spoke. Instead, she put the eggs into a bowl and beat them with chopsticks. She used chopsticks because there were few things in the kitchen, not even a whisk.

After beating the eggs, she sprinkled some flour evenly and added water and chopped scallions to stir the mixture.

Lin Zheng nodded blankly.

“All right, don’t be too curious. I didn’t conjure them. I brought them from home. However, I have something special for these.”

Lin Zheng did not quite understand what Su Binglan was saying. After stirring the mixture evenly, Su Binglan said, “Don’t just stand there. You can start preparing the fire.”

“A-All right, Master.” Lin Zheng sat down again and prepared to light the fire.

Su Binglan poured oil into a pan, poured in the mixture, and spread it into an omelet. She felt the heat rising too quickly and said, “Lower the fire, please.”

Lin Zheng hurriedly used an iron rod to poke the firewood in the furnace and kept the fire low. After cooking the egg, Su Binglan scooped it out of the pan with a spatula.

Then she placed it flat on the board and added more ingredients before rolling it up and cutting it into pieces..
