【Quick Wear】My Years as a Mother-in-law

Chapter 287: Primitive Tribe Chieftain Mother-in-law 7

During the boring winter days, Yun Xi didn't find any trace of orcs. After processing the mountain products, she became bored again.

Tao and Lang can still do some naughty things with Nianniang Jiangjiang, while Yunxi and the others either eat or sleep.

That day, Lian made a bamboo cup with a large bamboo, which was praised by Yun Xi, who then stood up to provide technical guidance.

Dust basket, steamer, colander, bamboo stool, bamboo lounge chair...

Lian was having a lot of fun, and Hua followed behind her mother without stopping her hands.

The space in the cave that had just been vacated by the consumption of food and firewood was filled up again.

"Mom, I found a Cuckoo Beast, it's frozen."

Yun Xi frowned, "Throw it away quickly, throw it away quickly. You can't eat this thing. You will get sick if you eat it."

Tao and Xing were disappointed and looked at each other in bewilderment. "Ah? We can't eat it?"

"You can't eat it!" Yun Xi said in a louder voice, "Throw it away immediately."

"Ok."

After the two came back, Yun Xi explained why they couldn't eat it. In a low temperature environment, bacteria in the animal's body would multiply rapidly after it died, causing the meat to deteriorate, and eating it might cause food poisoning.

The tribesmen were confused, but they remembered that they could not eat frozen animals in winter, as they would be poisoned.

"You must be tired of eating dried meat." Yun Xi said, "Wolf, you guys should kill that deer and eat it."

"Yes, patriarch."

Langyawei pulled the deer out of the cave with a happy look on his face.

"Shu, clean up your cave. The smell is a bit strong. If there are no monsters, you males should move back." Yun Xi was lying on the animal skin and ordering others to work. She was very happy.

Thinking that animal skins would not stick to the body after all, he went out for a walk and brought back the hemp he had cut in the space. He asked Xingyue to take it out and soak it in the river. After a while, he would weave it into hemp clothes.

Xing carefully memorized the appearance of hemp, thinking of finding more next year. There is no doubt that the things given by the patriarch will be useful.

Bing was crawling around on the animal skin. The first person she met in this alien world was extremely dependent on her. Of course, Yun Xi felt that this child knew that she could get milk by following her mother. Look, the child drank a lot of milk powder and was full. The child was chubby and looked very smart.

The three Wolf Fang Tail men quickly came in carrying earthenware jars.

"Chief, everything has been cleaned up." Wolf spoke first, while Fang and Tail remained silent.

Yun Xi took a look and saw that it was indeed very clean. She stood up to deal with it and found the most tender piece of meat and took it out for inspection. "I'll go find a slate. You guys cut this piece of meat into thin slices and marinate it with salt. You can roast it later. Spread salt on the rest and hang it up to eat slowly."

"it is good."

Yun Xi took out the salt. If you want to get sea salt, you can only wait until next year. It is too late this year. The animal skin will feel empty if you don’t wear it close to your body, let alone go to the beach. But people can’t live without salt, so they can only rely on cheating.

Yun Xi couldn't help but shrink her neck when she came out of the cave. It was okay above because the fur of the cloak was blocking the air, but from below, the cold wind was blowing upwards, giving her goose bumps all over her body. She had to go back quickly.

The snow in the wild was a foot thick and was still falling lightly. The winter in the south was a bit more bleak. The evergreen trees stood out, adding a lot of green to the gray forest. Fortunately, the animal skin shoes hugged her feet and ankles, otherwise she would only want to warm herself by the fire and would not want to leave the cave at all.

He walked carefully to the river, searched for a while, and brought back a thin piece of stone. The system marked that there was a patch of wild ginger upstream. Yun Xi put down the stone and picked a few pieces before returning to the cave.

I put the stone slabs on the fire and roasted them, added some ginger to the pickled venison, and explained to everyone the functions of ginger: it can stimulate appetite, strengthen the spleen, prevent heatstroke and reduce fever, and kill bacteria and detoxify.

The three children listened particularly attentively. They admired and were grateful to the patriarch, which prompted them to listen to Yun Xi's words especially carefully.

In the past, when people lived in the north, the elderly and children ate very little, and they did not eat as much as the hunting team does now. But now the tribe leader treats everyone equally and can preserve the fire. Most importantly, the tribe leader can always find edible food. With enough food, everyone feels safe.

There were several earthenware jars of lard. Yun Xi didn't like to save it, so she scooped out a large lump, put it on the stone slab and started roasting it.

The tender slices of meat sizzled on the stone slabs and slowly turned brown. The tribesmen were all stunned.

Yun Xi shook her head and said, "This is nothing. It's just something new to eat. There's no seasoning."

"Wolves, you have learned it, you can roast it."

After Yun Xi taught them, she became a hands-off boss. The wolves quickly brought her a bowl of barbecue, then the hunting team, then the children, then the elderly, and finally themselves.

After eating, everyone lay on the animal skins with their arms around their stomachs. It was truly a heavenly day. Langshan Cave closed the door, added firewood to the fire, and then fell asleep with everyone else. Yun Xi saw it all.

After a nap until mid-afternoon, Yun Xi pointed at the wild ginger and led the tribesmen to dig. Unexpectedly, there was quite a lot, so she said, "Drink a bowl of ginger soup every day from now on. It's good for your health. Save some for seeds."

In the south, people don’t dig up ginger in winter. If you want to eat it, just dig some. Although it will rot into the ground, it will grow again the next year. It’s magical.

"Good, it can prevent diseases." The tree said, taking note.

"Let's go to the bamboo forest and cut some bamboos. We can split them next year and build a bamboo building and warehouse." Yun Xi said happily, "And then we can see if there are any winter bamboo shoots. We can dig them up and eat them."

It hasn't rained much since I arrived here in autumn, so there aren't many mushrooms in the woods, so I didn't go looking for them specifically. I hope there will be more next year, as mushrooms are really delicious. But winter bamboo shoots are also good, they're fresh.

Bamboo is a treasure. Spring bamboo shoots, bamboo rats, bamboo worms, and bamboo fungi are all edible. Bamboo also has other uses. Bamboo products, such as winnowing baskets, bamboo cups, bamboo tubes, steaming trays, bamboo baskets, baskets, backpacks, bamboo curtains, mats, etc. can all be made of bamboo.

By the way, you can make a cool mat and keep it for use in summer. I’ll tell Lian about this later.

When they arrived at the bamboo forest, it was as quiet as ever. Yun Xi poked around with a wooden stick and found some winter bamboo shoots based on the bulges. The tribesmen really couldn't learn how to do it, so they just followed the tribe leader. The tribe leader looked for bamboo shoots, and they were responsible for digging. After finding about 50 kilograms, they could go back.

I just want to eat some fresh vegetables, but I'm afraid of constipation, so I shouldn't eat too much. This thing is too fat-burning.

Back in the cave, Yun Xi used a kitchen knife to chop the bamboo shoots, used the old ones for burning, and kept the tender ones to make soup.

It was evening at this time. Yun Xi blanched the bamboo shoots to remove the astringency, and cooked a pot of soup with shredded wild ginger, pork bones, lard, and dried wild vegetables. They would eat this in the evening. Of course, it would not be enough to fill them up. If each person shared two persimmons, it should be enough.

Yun Xi also fed the little guy Bing half a bowl of salt. He is one and a half years old now, so he can eat some salt appropriately.

After dinner, everyone ran out before dark to take care of their personal problems, go to the toilet, wash their faces and feet, and finally crawl into the animal skins to sleep.

The tribe only has a lot of animal skins. After all, it used to be a large tribe and left behind a lot of "legacy". Otherwise, they would have to go further south this winter or freeze to death.

Yun Xi thought before falling asleep.
