Farming in the beast world starts with the cub learning system

Chapter 580: Emptying the Master's Cellar

Zhu Yuanyuan was busy the whole afternoon and had no time to go next door to see the two cubs. She finally managed to prepare a sumptuous dinner before the sun set. All the dishes were specially ordered by the master. She felt a great sense of accomplishment and gained more confidence in what she wanted to discuss.

Considering all these delicious foods, the master will definitely agree to her little request, right?

Hu Yin, who was summoned by her apprentice to have dinner, said, "Yes, these are indeed the dishes I want to eat."

I just don’t really want to eat the steamed potatoes left over from lunch.

Zhu Yuanyuan knew what her master meant. She thought for a moment and said, "My mother said we'd have corn pancakes for dinner. I'll go get some potatoes in exchange for some."

In fact, I went home to get it from the space and brought A Niang out to make her presence felt, so that it would be easier to talk about the next thing.

The two families had worked together before, so Hu Yin was not polite and nodded in agreement, "Okay, in addition to potatoes, add some fish fillets and hand-pulled lamb."

Since there wasn’t much steamed pork, he didn’t give it to him. He planned to save some for tomorrow morning’s meal. After all, the witches’ cooking skills were average.

Zhu Yuanyuan went home and walked around. The few steamed potatoes in her hand turned into a small bowl of corn tortillas. There were many dishes in the evening and she didn't plan to eat them for free. The master could eat more meat and less tortillas.

"This pancake is good," Hu Yin nodded in satisfaction as she looked at the corn pancake and invited him, "You cooked a lot of dishes tonight, so don't go back to eat."

"No need, Brother Shi has already prepared dinner at home, I'll go back and eat it," Zhu Yuanyuan said with a smile, "Master eats a lot of meat, if you can't finish the pancakes, put them in the cellar and heat them up tomorrow morning before eating."

Hu Yin didn't force it. "Okay, then go back early. Someone will clean up the kitchen later."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered what he had told him yesterday, and frowned slightly, "When are you free to go into the mountains to collect herbs?"

The young apprentice just came back to work after recuperating. He still has two little kids at home who need to be taken care of. Plus, he was greedy and ordered a lot of dishes in the morning. It’s no problem that he didn’t go into the mountains today, but he still has to ask what he should ask. There has to be a deadline, right?

"Ah," Zhu Yuanyuan blinked and answered obediently, "I'll go tomorrow."

Hu Yin responded, "Well, you should be careful. You haven't been in the mountains for a year, so it's hard to say whether your strength has recovered."

"Yes!" Zhu Yuanyuan's eyes widened, "Master, you have to believe in my ability."

Hu Yin agreed casually, "Okay, I believe it."

The attitude was extremely perfunctory.

Zhu Yuanyuan was very depressed. "Master, I feel like you don't think highly of me as much as before. Did you have another disciple while I was pregnant?"

"No," Hu Yin denied quickly, "I wouldn't hide it if I accepted a new disciple."

"That means he has an idea but hasn't accepted it yet," Zhu Yuanyuan guessed, "He's still in the observation period?"

I'll go find Uncle Yuan later and ask if there's any free labor during this period. Even though she didn't see it, it doesn't mean there isn't any. Maybe she was too busy to notice it.

"What observation period?" Hu Yin was puzzled.

"Just like when I was a child, you didn't accept me as your disciple right away. It was only when you saw me often helping to clean and dry the herbs and found that I was doing a good job that you agreed to accept me as your disciple," Zhu Yuanyuan explained.

Hu Yin's expression instantly changed to one of disgust. "I didn't find that you did a great job. I just found you chattering around me all day long and it was very noisy. I just happened to not meet a suitable candidate for disciple, so I reluctantly agreed to accept you."

The voice of the little female, who was a few years old, was sharp and thin. He did not think it was a big deal, but it tortured the great witch who was used to a quiet life. He always felt a headache, so he had no choice but to accept the girl and taught her to listen more and talk less.

I have to say that this trick is quite useful. He has more opportunities to speak when teaching, while his apprentices are busy studying and don't have much time to get close to him and chat.

Zhu Yuanyuan: "..." So the reason she became a disciple successfully was not because of her intelligence, but because of her ability to make noise?

No, it was not what she thought.

"Okay, hurry home and have dinner," Hu Yin waved her hand to send him away, "I asked you to sit down and eat but you didn't. Instead, you kept talking and making me lose my appetite."

Zhu Yuanyuan's face fell, and she protested with a long tone, "Master, you should have spoken to me first, why do you think I'm noisy now?"

Ah, it seems that he really started it. Hu Yin felt guilty and could only say, "I was wrong. I remember you like to eat beef and mutton. Go to the cellar and get two pieces."

"No, no," Zhu Yuanyuan quickly refused, "I have something I want to discuss with Master."

"What's the matter?" Hu Yin asked.

"It's like this, my mother is helping me take care of the two kids and it's not convenient for her to cook lunch, so I thought of bringing some meat and vegetables here every day to cook together, and then sending mother's portion back home after it's done," Zhu Yuanyuan said seriously.

Hu Yin agreed without thinking, "Okay."

After receiving a positive answer, Zhu Yuanyuan showed a happy smile on her face, "Then I won't disturb Master from having dinner. See you tomorrow."

He turned around and prepared to leave with cheerful little steps.

"Wait a minute," Hu Yin called to the man, "You haven't received your food for today yet. Take what I promised you just now. I can't finish it anyway."

The Great Witch doesn't like to meddle in trivial matters of life. The rewards of the witches were previously distributed uniformly by Zhu Yuanyuan, who selected part of the daily rewards. It was not until she became pregnant that she gave it to Tu Yuan to take care of it. She had to go to the cellar to pick her share herself, and she hasn't gone there today.

Zhu Yuanyuan slapped her forehead and said, "Oh, I almost forgot."

She has done a lot today, so she must take what she deserves, and there is also compensation from her master. Hehe, it would be a waste not to take it.

After running around the cellar, he finally picked out the most mutant wild boar meat and took two large pieces, and also took the extra beef and mutton that his master wanted to give him, and went home happily.

It was already past seven o'clock in the evening. Zhu A'niang had left long ago. Bai Shi was sitting in the main room teasing the two kids who had rarely fallen asleep. Dinner for the two was placed on the table next to them. The scene was very heartwarming.

"I'm back~" Bai Shi smiled and stood up to take the meat from Banban's hand, "Wow, why are there so many meats today? Did you empty the master's cellar?"

"How is that possible? There are so many patients today, no, I should say injured, that the cellar is almost full. The witches who stayed behind tonight may have to clean up until midnight," Zhu Yuanyuan said a little exaggeratedly, "The extra things I brought back were what Master insisted on giving me."

It's hard to refuse such kindness~

The weather was hot, and even if the temperature in the cellar was slightly lower than outside, it was difficult to keep fresh meat overnight. There was not much work to do at night, so the witch on duty was responsible for processing the meat.

Whether to make dried meat, jerky or smoked meat depends entirely on the witch's wishes.

When there was no witch, Zhu Yuanyuan would do this work when she had time. After the witch appeared, her burden was reduced.

Bai Shi was surprised, "A lot of people were injured today?"

"Yes," Zhu Yuanyuan sighed, "There was a hunting team that was unlucky. They actually encountered a pack of mutant wolves. They couldn't fight them, and they couldn't outrun them. They had to fight and run at the same time, so many people were injured."

"How could that be? I remember there were no mutant wolves nearby," Bai Shi's face couldn't help but become serious.
