Little Tribe's Notebook

Chapter 26 Preparing Food

I went around a few times in the afternoon, and in addition to looking for rice crackers, I found a few slices of sweet potato and cucumber vines, a large piece of dark green leaf vines lying among the weeds, it was hard to find.

Going around for almost dusk, Qin You and Xicai had almost collected enough food, dragged the animal skin bag and returned to the original gathering place exhaustedly, seeing that few people had arrived, they couldn't help but sat on the ground directly, Then he picked up another cucumber and started to chew.

The two of them were probably exhausted, they gnawed on the cucumber without making a sound, and stared at the fiery red sun slowly sinking.

After eating the cucumber in his hand, Xicai seemed to be slowing down, stretched out his arms and legs, lay down on the grass, and began to close his eyes to rest his mind, but before he had a rest, the sub-orcs began to come one after another. , hearing the rustling sound, she could only complain and get up slowly, shouting: "I'm exhausted!"

Qin You was still sitting on the ground gnawing on cucumbers in a daze, but he didn’t bother to answer. He was really tired and flustered today. Counting the days, the number of beasts will be greatly reduced tomorrow, and it’s time to start migrating again, so we have to store them well today. Enough food, and then he and Xi almost ran all over the small half of the mountain.

Cucumbers were hard to find, and not many were picked. Thinking that sweet potatoes would also fill their stomachs, Qin You and Xi dug more. However, most of the afternoon was spent looking for rice crackers. It is easier to carry and full, but more importantly, Qin You likes rice...

After almost all the sub-orcs came, they began to return to the tribe.

After returning to the tribe, Qin You’s body seemed to be falling apart, his legs and feet were so sore, Qin You lay on his back on the stone bed, thinking that he had almost adapted to the constant climbing in the previous few collections, in order to pick more A little more food, I really walked a little far today, and except for the lunch time at noon, I basically didn't rest.Her legs were sore, and there were huge blisters on her feet.

"Are you tired today?" Lear looked at the two lying on the stone bed sprawled with some distress. "Fortunately, there is no bonfire feast today, otherwise you will be even more tired."

Qin You and Xi nodded in agreement.

Lear looked amused at the way they hadn't calmed down, so he pulled the animal skin bags to tidy them up.

Qin You and Xi were lying on the ground, and fell asleep because they were too tired.When I woke up again, it was already dark, and I could still hear the chirping of various insects at night from the window. The dinner had been wrapped in soft leaves and put aside, but it seemed to be a little cold already.

Lier was peeling rice crackers on the side, and Qin You saw that the animal skin bag had already peeled a small bag.

Qin You and Xi's stomachs were already empty, and they were gurgling sonatas. Although the food was a bit cold, they still ate voraciously.

Lear glanced at them upon hearing the sound, smiled and poured them two glasses of water.

After filling their stomachs in a hurry, Qin You and Xicai began to help Lille tidy up in a mood.

Seeing that they had finished eating, Lear said, "Ser and Ya came here just now and sent some eggs and the meat of Guji Beast, but you were still sleeping at that time."

Hearing this, Xi slapped his head and said, "Oh, I haven't talked to Ya today!" Then he stood up and rushed out the door.

Lear quickly grabbed his hand, "Don't go, don't you look at how late it is, you must have fallen asleep, go tomorrow, we should go to bed too."

Xi had no choice but to nod reluctantly.

The three of them peeled some more rice crackers, filled a animal skin bag, and then began to wash and go to sleep. However, after all, they had only slept not long ago, and it took Qin You and Xi some time to fall asleep.

***

At dawn, perhaps due to too much fatigue, when he woke up, his mind was clear and his physical fatigue was relieved a lot. Qin You washed up by the river refreshedly, and walked back to the stone house.

Qin didn't prepare much for breakfast. He cooked a pot of porridge, fried a bowl of wild vegetables, and steamed half a piece of salted fish. For three people, it should be enough.

The porridge is very soft and glutinous. After cooking for a long time, it is thick. There are also some dried shrimp-flavored herbs in it. The porridge has a familiar rice fragrance and the umami taste of shrimp-flavored herbs. The salted fish is fresh and salty, the meat is tender and melts in the mouth, and the taste of wild vegetables is crisp and fresh.

The appetite was very good early in the morning, and the three of them almost finished a pot of porridge.

Stomach was full, Qin You put down the bowl and chopsticks, and belched contentedly.

After drinking and eating, the three of them began to organize the food.

The most important thing in the food is rice, and there are rhythmic friction sounds in the small stone house, as well as the small sound of rice grains scattering.

"This rice cracker is really delicious. The rotten ones are delicious, and the hard ones are also delicious. They are delicious." Xi Bian said while rubbing the rice grains.

Lear nodded, "It's delicious."

Qin You grinned.

Before they rubbed for a long time, Ya and Se also entered the stone house. Today they will not go out to hunt, and they will recharge their batteries for tomorrow's migration.

"What are you rubbing?" Ya stepped into the room and asked curiously as she watched the three people vigorously rubbing the fruit.

"Migo." Xi was not very angry, for some reason the two had an awkward fight in the morning.

Hearing this tone, Ya could only laugh along with her. Seeing Xi rub's red hands, she hurriedly grabbed a handful of rice crackers, sat next to Xi and began to rub them.

Seeing Ya sitting next to her, Xi got up and walked away unhappily, and began to organize the food in another animal skin bag.

Se also sat down and began to help. Qin You saw that the two of them were patting each other very quickly, and a small lump of rice grains gathered in a short while.

It is also possible that because of the weird atmosphere between him and Se, Qin You also got up and began to help Xi start to organize the food.

The two orcs had no choice but to pat the rice crackers in their hands in a daze, unable to hold their breath.

Another animal skin bag contained some sweet potatoes and cucumbers. Seeing the cucumbers, Qin You thought that making a cucumber mixed with sugar would be a good snack to satisfy his cravings.

Thinking about it, I washed a few cucumbers and cut them into slices.

Xi might be still angry, so she didn't come up to ask.

Qin You shook his head helplessly, put the sliced ​​cucumber into a large bowl, sprinkled it with powdered sugar, and mixed it.Qin You doesn't like vinegar, and naturally he doesn't like cucumbers mixed with vinegar. The only thing he likes is raw or candied cucumbers.

Qin You tasted a few slices first, the cucumber was raw and crisp, and the taste became even sweeter after being sprinkled with powdered sugar.

Put the mixed cucumbers on the small wooden pier placed on the bed, and greeted Xi who was still arguing to come and eat. This time, he was not hypocritical, and he probably smelled the faint fragrance of cucumbers in the air.

Xiyi sat down on the edge of the bed, snorted lightly at Naya, and stuffed a slice into his mouth, but the angry expression didn't last long, and he was soon attracted by the taste of cucumber mixed in his mouth past.

While bragging about its deliciousness, his subordinates kept eating it.

"I didn't expect this green melon sprinkled with powdered sugar to taste so special." Lear also seemed to like it very much.

"Yeah!" Xi's mouth was a little full, so he nodded in agreement.

Ser and Ya just ate a few slices and stopped eating, but they don't like to eat plants anyway, they are all weeds in their eyes.

While eating cucumber salad, Nai's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Yu~lier~xi~ are you there?" There was a little joy in the voice.

"Here." Hearing this, Lear raised his throat.

Nai opened the animal skin curtain and walked in, holding a bag of food wrapped in soft leaves.

Seeing that Se and Ya were still in the room, Nai was slightly taken aback, but quickly said, "Hello."

"Hello." Ya replied politely, and Se nodded.

Nai smiled, raised the food in his hand and said: "You are leaving the tribe tomorrow, I made some thick tofu for you, this is a little harder than the tofu you ate last time, but you still have to eat it well Save." Nai put the tofu on the table.

Hearing the food, Xi got up from the bed, took a look at the thick tofu wrapped in soft leaves.

"I'm sorry, Nai." Lear thanked with a smile.

Nai waved his hand, "No need, pay attention to safety when you migrate tomorrow, and remember to welcome me when I come to Roroca City next time haha."

"No problem." Xi smiled and put her on Nai's shoulder.

"Well, then, I'll go back first, and it's time to prepare lunch later."

"Okay." Qin You and Xi agreed and waved their hands.

After Nai left, Qin You untied the soft leaves and looked at the thick tofu. The tofu did look hard, but it was probably softer than dry tofu, with a texture like stinky tofu. The amount of tofu was not enough. There are many, many, and it may not be possible to finish eating today.

Qin You thought about it, and decided to use the old method, which is delicious and easy to carry.

"Let's fry this tofu and eat it. It's a little troublesome to carry it." Qin You proposed while carrying the bag of tofu.

"You can figure it out, it's delicious anyway." Xi continued to eat cucumbers without any objection.Lear also nodded secretly, then continued to lower his head to rub the rice grains.

Qin You nodded, and began to prepare. First, there was some left over for lunch and dinner. Qin You cut the other thick tofu into stinky tofu-sized pieces, and then heated the oil in the pot.

When the oil smoked, Qin You put the thick tofu in one by one, and then made a sizzling sound, and a smell of fried tofu began to waft in the air, the fragrance tempted people to drool, Qin You fried a large pot of tofu until it was golden brown, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Then, boil the remaining tomatoes and some small red peppers picked by hand into tomato sauce and hot sauce, wrap the fried dried tofu in soft leaves, and bundle it with the other two bamboo tubes.

Fried tofu can be regarded as hastily completed.
