Zhu Yuanyuan thought hard and couldn't figure out what the elders were thinking. Until she returned to the waterhole and saw dozens of extra wheelbarrows in the temporary campsite, she couldn't help but cry out!
The battle was so big that they thought they were plotting something big, but in the end they were just doing it while they were away.
Could it be that they were afraid that young people would compete with them to do carpentry work, so they deliberately found reasons to send people out?
Just outrageous.
Zhu Yuanyuan felt that she must have gone astray, so she tried her best to pull her thoughts back from her wandering thoughts, and ran to the clan leader to hand over the prey.
"Not bad, quite capable," Zhu Shan nodded with satisfaction.
Pheasants and hares are a bit small in size, but there are quite a lot of them. They add up to dozens of kilograms of meat. It’s great that the underage female can bring back so much.
Zhu Yuanyuan blinked her big eyes and said, "Uncle Chief, most of these prey are due to my elder brother."
Zhu Shan was shocked, "He still has the nerve to come back?"
"Hehe," Zhu Yuanyuan explained with a silly smile, "It's because there is insufficient light at night and there are few prey!"
"You will make excuses for him," Zhu Shan said with a straight face and chased him away, "I'll leave after handing over the prey. I'm busy and don't have time to listen to your nonsense."
Zhu Yuanyuan felt numb, "You were quite enthusiastic just now."
If the patriarch hadn't insisted on holding her to talk and left after handing over the prey, she would still be here today.
"I need to understand the specific situation," Zhu Shan said righteously. ..
"Okay, you have the final say on what to do. I'm leaving," Zhu Yuanyuan left with a wooden face.
After she left, Zhu Yongmeng came in high spirits with a few friends carrying the mutated wild boar. Zhu Shan was instantly happy from ear to ear.
The next day, Zhu Yuanyuan heard the noise and opened her eyes. When she got up, she only saw her father's back.
Dozens of strong wild boars were already waiting in the open space not far away.
"Yuanyuan is awake?" Zhu Xiaofen said softly, "Let's rest for a while, it's not yet dawn."
"Well," Zhu Yuanyuan nodded, but did not lie down in a hurry. She lowered her voice and asked, "Are Dad and the others going hunting?"
It's not something that can't be said, Zhu Xiaofen didn't hide it, "It's cool to get up early, and there are many wild animals coming out to look for food. The clan leader wants to hunt more prey, and after roasting it, he can have a bite at noon."
It takes a long time to chew the dried meat in your mouth before you can swallow it. It can be eaten as a snack, or stewed with potatoes. It is too tooth-consuming to eat it directly as a meal.
Especially the young and old people in the tribe have bad teeth and cannot eat at all.
Zhu Yuanyuan understood the truth, but she didn't understand, "Why did we let us go hunting last night? We should be able to harvest more if we go with them this morning."
"When you go out, you have to protect the old and weak members of the clan," Zhu Xiaofen sighed. "If we don't leave some people here who can fight, who will protect us when we encounter a group of strange beasts?"
Zhu Yuanyuan suddenly realized that she had never thought of the necessity of hunting in batches. The position of clan leader was indeed not one that could be secured with a little cleverness. Fortunately, she did not have such lofty ambitions.
Thinking like this, she was about to lie down on the ground and continue to sleep, but before she could do anything, she saw her mother getting up, holding the baggage with her clothes in her mouth, and preparing to leave.
Zhu Yuanyuan hurriedly asked, "Auntie doesn't have to go hunting, why don't you sleep more?"
Zhu Xiaofen turned around and glanced at her daughter, but she didn't let go, dragging her bundle towards the bushes not far away.
Zhu Yuanyuan grinned. She seemed to be disliked?
Thinking of the mutated black snake I dug in the bushes yesterday, I felt uneasy, so I found my little baggage and followed it.
After turning into human form and getting dressed, Zhu Xiaofen said, "While your father and the others are hunting, we have to make breakfast."
Last night's prey was processed overnight, smeared with salt, and hung on the big tree by the pool. The female responsible for cooking only needs to take it down, cut some pheasants and rabbits into pieces, stew them with potatoes in several pots, and roast the rest. .
Zhu Yuanyuan participated in the hunt and did not need to help with the cooking. She wandered around several large pots and was chased away by Zhu Xiaofen like flies.
"Stop hanging around here, it's causing chaos!"
「
I just want to help," Zhu Yuanyuan defended weakly.
"No need," Zhu Xiaofen said angrily, "I don't want to peel potatoes, I don't want to cut potatoes, I feel tired from chopping rabbits and pheasants, I just walk around the pot, and I have the nerve to offer to help with the taste."
There are so many people working, why do we need someone to taste the food?
How shameless!
Everyone in the family is honest, but there is one outlier. Zhu Xiaofen can’t figure out who her daughter’s temperament is like, and she really doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
"Hey~ Mom, that's true of you," Zhu Yuanyuan shook her head and sighed, "Everyone secretly stuffs delicious food into their mouths, but it's a good thing for you that you don't even let them smell it."
Yes, she doesn't lack for food anyway. If she doesn't want to leave around the stove, wouldn't it be nice to go back and catch up on her sleep?
Of course, catching up on sleep was an external term. She was going to do some tasks. If she had to go hunting tonight, she wouldn't have enough time to do the tasks.
After completing three tasks in one go, he was hesitating whether to continue or not when a loud aunt started calling for dinner. Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanyuan got up and slapped her two brothers who were still snoring to wake up.
The smell of meat is so strong, it’s strange that I can sleep so peacefully!
When Zhu Yuanyuan was complaining secretly, she forgot that she had just opened her eyes and had already tied the three brothers and sisters together without knowing what was going on. They all discussed in private, "The kids in Aqiang's family can really sleep."
The people who were out hunting began to turn around one after another, and those who were idle had their meal first, and then went to help with the prey and set it up on the fire to roast it.
It was very busy early in the morning, but no one complained.
When they were ready to hit the road, my parents and two brothers pushed the wheelbarrow forward skillfully. Zhu Yuanyuan couldn't help but sigh, "It's becoming more and more stylish!"
It's a pity that because of the unpleasantness last night, the second brother would rather push the car and salute her than push her, thus missing the opportunity to be lazy.
Alas, family ties in the orc world are so fragile.
"Why are you dazed? Let's go quickly," Zhu Xiaofen frowned and patted her daughter awake, "Don't wait any longer."
"Just come," Zhu Yuanyuan responded angrily.
After three days of traveling like this, everyone was in a lot of embarrassment, and the initial excitement turned into doubts about life.
At the current rate, the drought may be over before we even reach the southern border.
Don't think this is a good thing. If the rivers dry up and the wild animals migrate away first, eating will become a big problem.
The patriarch's brows were so worried that he frowned and didn't know how to speed up his journey.
Zhu Yuanyuan didn't need to worry about this. She found an empty space on her eldest brother's wheelbarrow and stuffed her small bamboo basket into it, so she didn't have to go on her own.
The only drawback is that the eldest brother walks on the outside of the team and is also responsible for patrolling and guarding. If you want to be lazy, you can only follow the eldest brother forward and retreat, which makes the mother-in-law scratch her ears and mutter.
What is too wild-tempered and too curious...
Anyway, there are disadvantages everywhere, but few advantages. I can only praise my good luck. Every night when I go out, I never come back empty-handed.
Speaking of which, the place where they are now looks familiar, it seems...
The land of the Flying Tiger Clan?
Zhu Yuanyuan slapped her forehead, yes, the Feihu tribe is not just south of their tribe.
