Raising Cubs in Another World

"Brother Song, my mother said that there will be a sacrificial ceremony next month, do you want to go?"

Yang Xiaoyi, who took the initiative to clean up the dishes after eating, asked Song Ning.

Song Ning was supervising the little wolf cub swallowing the last mouthful of foreign bamboo shoots. Hearing this, he raised his clear and bright eyes to look at him, and said gently, "I'm going. The sacrificial ceremony held every three years is quite lively. Why don't you go and see it?"

"Then will you go there to set up a stall?" Yang Xiaoyi asked curiously, "Aunt said you have a lot of novelty things here, and you don't show them out on weekdays. Will you show them out at the grand ceremony?"

Song Ning thought for a while, but he didn't think he had anything new, so he didn't agree clearly, "I'll see it later, but why don't you go to school, or be careful of the teacher's criticism when you are late."

Yang Xiaoyi was most afraid of that goat-bearded teacher with a stern face all day long, as long as a student was disobedient, he would be punished to stand and beat his hand, and he would be punished to recite his words and write "Three Classics for Children", which was scary.Hearing Song Ning's words, he immediately waved his hand to leave without delay, and before leaving, he did not forget to ask Song Ning: "Then can I find you on the day of the sacrificial ceremony?"

"Okay, remember to dress warmly that day, and you can come to me as soon as you tell your mother, or she must be anxious if she can't find you." Song Ning agreed with a gentle smile. During the last sacrificial ceremony, Yang Xiaoyi still Xiao, Song Ning just walked around in Yang Xiaoyi's animal form, satisfying the desire to pluck the fur in his heart.

But this year there are little wolf cubs, maybe it will be different.

Song Ning lowered his head and looked at the little wolf cub obediently lying on his stomach looking outside, his heart warmed, he must be looking forward to what's going on outside.

But now—he had other things to attend to first.

Bo Le put one paw on the other paw, watched the man pass by him, and when he passed by, he still touched his head with his hand. I don't know where the man learned this bad habit.

Without much thought, Bo Le saw the man brought back a round dustpan from the bamboo stand outside the kitchen, and the dustpan was covered with a layer of white things.

Bo Le raised his head and looked closer, and saw a thing with a pointed head and a tail that was bigger than a soybean, but he didn't recognize it.

Song Ning put the dustpan on the table, picked up the pumpkin seeds, looked at the little wolf cub with a puzzled face, and said calmly: "These are called pumpkin seeds, they are dug out from pumpkins, washed and dried Afterwards, it can be fried and eaten as a snack.”

Are pumpkin seeds still edible?It can't be blamed that Bo Le didn't hear about it when he was young. Before Song Ning came here, the islanders on Buki Island processed pumpkin seeds except for saving the ripe ones for the next year's seeds, and throwing away the rest.

Song Ning raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Don't believe me, when did I ever lie to you?"

After picking, Song Ning took out five seasoning jars and put them in front of the little wolf cub, pointing to them one by one, "This is five spice, this is rattan pepper, this is spicy, brown sugar, and chicken, what flavor do you want? "

Bo Le didn't expect Song Ning to ask his opinion, so he was stunned for a long time before he stepped forward to sniff, but he didn't make a decision after sniffing. He was only familiar with these smells, which the cook used to like to give him. Every time he makes stewed pork, it's a big plate, which makes his stomach bulge.

It's so confusing! ! !He kind of wanted to have all five, but that would be too greedy, and the man would definitely be dissatisfied when he saw it.Now that I'm living under the fence, how can I be more understanding.

Seeing that the little wolf cub hadn't moved for a long time, Song Ning was about to say that he might as well have a portion of all five flavors, when he saw the little wolf cub finally stretched out his short, fluffy paws, and pressed it hesitantly. Served on a crock pot filled with spiced spices.

After pressing his eyes, he stared at the earthen pot next to him without moving, and then glanced at himself uncertainly, then stretched out his other paw, and pressed another pot.

That cute look caught Song Ning's eyeballs, and Song Ning screamed "so cute" in his heart, and nodded with a calm face on the surface.

"Good eye, both flavors are good, especially the rattan pepper."

After speaking, he took the opportunity to pat his fluffy little head, and after rubbing his snow-white hair with his hands, he picked up the jar and stood up contentedly.

But if Bole knew that he could eat five flavors of pumpkin seeds one step later, he would definitely hate himself for making his claws so fast! !

Stir-fried pumpkin seeds are very simple. He prepares some every year to send to his neighbors, prepare snacks for guests, or when someone visits him to chat and drink tea during the festival, he grabs a handful of pumpkin seeds and crosses his legs.

He first fried the five-flavored one.

Although it is five spices, there are not only five kinds of spices prepared. In addition to the common star anise, cloves, cumin, cinnamon and fennel, Song Ning also added grass fruit, peppercorns and licorice this time.

First put in the spices and stir-fry for a strong aroma, then pour the full-grained pumpkin seeds into the pot, and turn the shovel back and forth orderly and evenly.

The most difficult thing to control when frying pumpkin seeds is actually the heat.Song Ning had already extinguished the firewood before pouring in the melon seeds, leaving only the last few charcoal fires still hanging red. The pumpkin kernels will have a bitter taste.

Halfway through the stir-fry, Song Ning poured in a large bowl of coarse salt that he had prepared earlier, rustling, the coarse salt made a pleasant sound during the stir-fry, bringing with it a rich, salty and fresh taste that danced in people's hearts.

The little wolf cub couldn't help poking his head to check it out. Neil had short legs, and the whole wolf body stood upright on his two short hind legs, but he still couldn't see what was going on inside the pot.

Grinning his teeth in anger, he yelled a few times, then leaned back on the chair unwillingly.

Song Ning was amused watching this scene, but now is the critical moment, he didn't pay much attention to checking the color of the coarse salt, and when the coarse salt turned reddish yellow, he took the pumpkin seeds and the coarse salt with a shovel Scoop onto a large platter.

So now, it's rattan pepper.

The rattan pepper is different from the five-spice. Instead of frying the spices first, you need to fry the melon seeds first.

After adding firewood, pour the coarse salt and pumpkin seeds into the iron pot, and stir them quickly and evenly. After the coarse salt and pumpkin seeds began to change color slightly, Song Ning skillfully took out the unrefined oil with iron clips. Burnt firewood.

Immediately afterwards, he threw the green rattan peppers that had been washed and drained into the frying pan, then the garlic, ginger slices, and dried chilies that he had prepared in advance, and with a twist of his wrist, he scooped up a spoonful of cooking wine, "Zi La" Drizzle, the other free hand picked up a rag to hold the side of the pot, and began to flip it quickly.

Bo Le watched him operate in a daze for a while, and secretly admired "it's amazing" in his heart.

In the past two days, he got to know this man more or less from the few people he came into contact with.

The man's name is Song Ning, and he owns a farmhouse, and the business is not doing well. It can be imagined that he hasn't seen a single customer since he's been here for so long.Although he hasn't been to other places except the inner house, the front yard, and Ruoda's kitchen, since he picked so many fruits and vegetables from the backyard in different ways, he doesn't have to worry about eating.

It is indeed a good choice to heal and lurk here.

Gathering his thoughts, he saw that Song Ning had poured the pumpkin seeds and stir-fried ingredients into the plate.Song Ning took out a mesh dustpan, shook the seasonings, and picked out the ones that couldn't be shaken.Finally, separate the pumpkin seeds of different flavors, put them in a clean cotton bag, sew a hemp rope on the edge of the bag, and Song Ning tie it tightly, leaving two bags, and put the rest in the cabinet inside.

Bo Le couldn't see clearly, so Song Ning had already returned to him.Will specially pick out large plump ones and put them in front of him, and start peeling them one by one.

The peeled melon seeds were placed on a small plate by him. This plate was very delicate, the color of pear blossom wood, and the body of the plate was carved with pear patterns, which looked elegant and noble.Bole's eyes shifted from the plate to the melon seeds, they were so small.

He secretly complained, staring at Song Ning's non-stop fingers.This is the first time he has looked at it so carefully. The man's hand is unexpectedly long and beautiful. The fingers are slender but not thin. The bones are distinct, and the palm is thick and calloused. It looks strong and tough, which does not match his gentle and clear face. .

After a while, the pumpkin seeds were peeled, which just filled two small dishes.

Song Ning pointed to one of the plates and said, "This is five-flavored, and the other is rattan pepper. Which one do you try first?"

This... is naturally five-flavored.

For flavors that he has never tried, Bo Le will not try them easily, otherwise they will not always be really delicious. He carefully pawed the plate with his paws, stretched out his small head and leaned over to take a mouthful.I ate half of the dish in one bite.

"chachacha~"

The crisp sound came from the sharp teeth, the little wolf cub grinned his teeth after eating, and the pumpkin seeds were small, and some small pieces fell on the table. The appearance of this eating was similar to that of a naughty kitten. Bundle.

Song Ning endured it and didn't reach out, because the little wolf cub ate really delicious, and when he saw the scum that fell on the table after eating, he scratched it with some pity, as if he was thinking about whether to roll it up and eat it, and then looked at it Song Ning was looking at him, shrinking her paws in embarrassment.

Turning to the plate, he ate happily.

The taste of this pumpkin seed is very similar to the nuts he used to eat, but it is very fragrant, very crunchy, and tastes salty and fragrant. Although it is a snack, it is unstoppable.

The dish was not big, and the five flavors were swept away, and the little wolf cub turned his attention to the dish on the side.

The scent of rattan pepper is too strong, even if I ate the five-flavored one just now, my nose has been lingering with the smell of rattan pepper, and the smell stimulates the taste buds, I don't know if it is good or not.

The little wolf cub didn't gulp like the five-flavored food, but carefully rolled two pieces with his tongue into his mouth and chewed slowly, chewing hard, his big sapphire blue eyes became brighter and brighter.

This rattan pepper-flavored melon seeds are delicious!

It is more delicious than the spiced one, and it is a different taste experience.

Tasting the sweetness, he immediately put his head down and ate it...

"Ahhh!!!"

Halfway through eating, the little wolf cub sneezed without warning, a string of drops of water hung on his small black nose, and felt that his tongue was numb and spicy as if he didn't realize it.

hiss…………

It's even worse!

The little wolf cub stuck out its pink tongue pitifully and whined in a low voice, its big eyes gradually misty, looking very aggrieved.

Seeing this, Song Ning said in a low voice with evil taste, "I forgot to tell you, rattan pepper is spicy."
