No matter what Hu Ye said, she was excluded from the job of moving firewood. Zhu Yuanyuan led a dozen witches and rushed to the second floor in a threatening manner. Each person carried a bundle of firewood, and soon they moved all the firewood to the two kitchens on the first floor.

Oh, no, there is actually one more person. When there was only one bundle of dry firewood left, Tu Yuan quickly grabbed it and said, "Yuanyuan, I'll leave the sweeping to you~"

Zhu Yuanyuan tried to steal the work, "Let me do it, Uncle Yuan, you are older, you should do less physical work."

"Shut up!" Tu Yuan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "I am in my prime, I am in good health and strong, I am no worse than a little female like you."

After he finished speaking, he walked away carrying the firewood.

Zhu Yuanyuan could only pick up the broom and sweep the floor. Although it was a good thing to have someone to help, she would look useless if she let others do all the work.

The floor was not even swept yet, but the half-grown orc who was anxious to get his meat had already carried the firewood to the second floor. He bared his teeth and said with a smile, "Little witch, where do you put the firewood? I'm not exaggerating, but the firewood I have is just the right size and is well dried, so it's best to burn it."

"Really? Then I'll have to try it. If it burns badly, I'll ask you to change it next time," Zhu Yuanyuan pointed to the cleaned area and said, "Put it there and arrange it neatly."

"Okay~" The half-grown orc who arrived first stepped forward swiftly and placed the firewood next to the corner.

Zhu Yuanyuan picked up a wooden board and took out a charcoal pencil wrapped in leaves from her pocket. "What's it called? Tell me when you send me more firewood. I'll remember the quantity for easy settlement."

"My name is Tu Baobao," the half-grown orc touched the back of his head and grinned foolishly.

"Oh," Zhu Yuanyuan wrote down the name and wrote a 1 at the end. "Bao Bao is a good name. Wait, are you the child of Uncle Yuan?"

She and Uncle Yuan were good friends regardless of age difference, but she seldom saw Tu Yuan's companions and cubs, so it was normal that she did not recognize them. She only knew that the youngest cub was called Bao Bao.

"Yes, my father is Tu Yuan," Tu Baobao nodded.

Zhu Yuanyuan was surprised, "I don't think I saw Uncle Yuan coming home just now?"

"Maybe you were sweeping the floor and didn't notice," Rabbit Baobao guessed reasonably, "You know my house is quite close."

Zhu Yuanyuan thought it made sense. The second floor of her master's house was twice as big as hers, and it would take a lot of time to sweep it, so Uncle Yuan would have to go back several times.

After the first one, there was the second one. In addition to the families of the witches, other orcs also heard the news and sent firewood. She accepted them all and only called a halt when the second floor was most full.

"Put down the firewood that has been delivered and count it. You don't need to deliver more firewood later. I don't want any more," she said. "Please tell each other."

Rabbit Baobao responded positively, "I know~"

Some orcs also asked curiously, "It's not even full yet, why don't you want it?"

"Because there are still people delivering firewood here on the road," Zhu Yuanyuan explained, "by the time everyone has delivered the last bundle, this place should be almost full."

The orcs suddenly realized.

In the busy chatter, the whole morning passed by. Zhu Yuanyuan secretly took out her mobile phone and glanced at it, "Emma, ​​it's almost 12 o'clock, and I haven't cooked lunch yet."

It’s okay for her to eat later, but that’s not the case with the master. He can only keep it simple and cook some spicy hot pot with hot pot meatballs. He will go home and get some bone soup later. If anyone asks, he will say it’s what’s left over from the morning.

Hehe, she is really smart.

Arriving at the kitchen, the witch on duty grinned and said, "Little witch, I'm almost done here. How about you and the witch share some food?"

Zhu Yuanyuan shook her head, "No, I can just make something simple."

Although there is no restriction on lunch for the witches, the amount to cook is up to the witch on duty that day. However, everyone knows their limits and will not cook as much as the wealthy. Instead, they will estimate the appetite of everyone. If they eat as much as the wealthy, the witches will not be full.

It’s not like there’s no meat at home, so why bother?

The witch on duty did not try to persuade him much after hearing this, as they all knew that the big witch was not used to eating from a big pot, and if he said too much, people would definitely misunderstand that he had bad intentions.

Zhu Yuanyuan soaked some dried mushrooms, peeled a few potatoes and radishes, and went home to bring back a pot of bone soup, a basket of hot pot meatballs, and the most important spicy hot pot base.

Put the bone soup and chopped radish into the pot first, then go to the cellar to get some beef and mutton, cut them into rolls, and finally get some tender wild vegetables.

After the snow melted, wild vegetables stubbornly broke out of the ground. Some impatient orcs had already gone to dig them up and sent them to the Great Witch, under the pretext of "letting you taste the freshest wild vegetables."

Although the Great Witch doesn't like to eat it, he appreciates the kindness.

Zhu Yuanyuan decided to put some wild vegetables into the spicy hot pot before serving. It has both meat and vegetables, which is rich and comprehensive in nutrition!

It was a good idea, but the Great Witch didn't like it very much. When he saw the wild vegetables on top of the spicy hot pot, he felt terrible and said with a dark face, "Next time, take out my portion first."

"Master, how could you do this?" Zhu Yuanyuan's eyes were filled with condemnation. "The wild vegetables were specially sent to you by everyone to try. I can just eat a few bites, but I can't eat them all by myself."

She took a chopstick and handed the wild vegetable to her master. "It's quite tender. It must taste good."

"That's good," Hu Yin sneered, "You use your chopsticks well. You picked up all the wild vegetables with one chopstick."

"Almost," Zhu Yuanyuan smiled modestly, "I'll finish the rest."

As he spoke, he stretched out his chopsticks and scraped a few times, picking up the only three or two remaining wild vegetables and putting them in his bowl.

Hu Yin wanted to overturn the table, but was concerned about the untouched spicy hot pot on the table. In the end, she clenched her fists and endured it. She picked up the chopsticks and shared most of the wild vegetables in her bowl. "Hand over your bowl."

"Not good," Zhu Yuanyuan picked up the bowl and shrank back, "I've only heard of disciples being filial to their masters..."

"Hehe, as a master who cares about his disciple, isn't it wrong for me to let you eat a few more bites?" Hu Yin asked.

Zhu Yuanyuan replied with a bitter face, "Okay, of course."

She had no doubt that if she refused this half bowl of wild vegetables, the consequences would be serious.

"I'm not talking about weeds, ugh, wild vegetables are fresh and tasty," Hu Yin urged calmly, "Eat quickly, if you're not satisfied, I have more here."

"That's enough," Zhu Yuanyuan didn't dare to make trouble anymore and smiled apologetically, "Master, eat too. I put a lot of meat rolls and meatballs in it today. You should eat more."

Hu Yin's timely cooing reminded him that it was time for lunch, so he had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​arguing with his apprentice and picked up the spoon to scoop himself a full bowl of meat rolls and meatballs.

No matter how angry you are, you still have to eat and can't starve yourself.

My own disciple said something right: you have to be nice to yourself at all times. No matter how nice others say, it will be useless if you can't do it.

So he picked up the bowl and started eating. He quickly finished a large bowl and then went for a second bowl.

Zhu Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. As long as she could eat it, it would be fine. Her master never gave the food he had eaten to others. She could finally eat with peace of mind.

After lunch, she reported to her master the amount of meat she had used to collect firewood in the morning. "In total, I collected..."

"Stop!" Hu Yin said impatiently, "Just make the decision yourself, no need to tell me."
