Zhu Yongmeng finally accepted the task of delivering the fertility fruit to Zhu Hong, but he just kept thinking about it all the way, obviously not willingly.
Zhu Yuanyuan's left ear went in and the right ear went out, but Quan pretended not to hear.
That night, the two tribes found a valley surrounded by mountains and lakes to rest. After bowing, they separated some of the mature orcs as usual to go hunting in the nearby woods, while the rest tidied up their accommodation and prepared dinner.
Seeing that the lake in the valley was clear and there were big fish swimming around, Zhu Yuanyuan couldn't help but become interested in catching fish.
In my previous life, I wanted to eat fish grilled in a stone pot but was reluctant to buy it, so I checked the recipe online. Now, as long as I catch the fish, I can eat it for free. Even if no one is as good as the chef, it doesn’t matter. Just be happy.
Wiping the non-existent saliva from the corner of her mouth, Zhu Yuanyuan grabbed the bone grass and ran to the river, confidently preparing to catch fish.
Hold your breath and concentrate, aim at the big fish swimming around and strike with a bone...
Very good, the fish ran away. Because of the excessive force, the man threw himself into the lake, flopped in it a few times, and almost opened his mouth to shout for help.
Several females who were cleaning the water in the stone pot not far away shouted in surprise, "Why did Yuanyuan take a bath before she finished cooking?"
Zhu Yuanyuan was so angry that she wanted to jump and take a bath. She accidentally fell into the lake and drowned!
It’s true that these ladies and aunties don’t even know how to save people.
After a while, she seemed to have stepped on the bottom and stood up straight on her feet. Suddenly she realized that the water was only around her waist. It was basically impossible to drown an adult unless her legs cramped and she couldn't stand up.
Just, so embarrassing~
The lake is obviously quite big, covering hundreds of square meters, and is home to large fish weighing dozens of kilograms. How can the water be so shallow?
I quickly realized that it was not that there was no drought here, but that the situation was slightly better. In addition, the lake was large and contained a lot of water, so even the casual person would not notice it.
The clan leader's decision was correct. Sure enough, we still had to continue walking south.
Zhu Yuanyuan got up from the lake with an embarrassment and explained to the ladies in pale language, "I wasn't taking a bath, but I saw some big fish and wanted to catch a few and grill them. I lost my balance and fell down." "
"Yes, yes, you just want to eat fish," the ladies nodded wildly to show they understood, "We will definitely not tell others."
The little female is almost an adult and knows what it means to be shy.
Zhu Yuanyuan didn't know what the elders were thinking. She looked at her with a strange look, as if she was suppressing a smile.
After asking again and again and getting no answer, I had to give up and say, "If you don't tell me, just
Don’t say anything, I will continue to fish...ah~ my Gucha fell into the lake. "
All the ladies couldn't help but raise their hands to pick their ears, "What, okay, why did Gumao fall into the water?"
Zhu Yuanyuan was about to cry but had no tears, "I told you, I came here to catch fish. I couldn't catch it with my bare hands, so I thought of using bone grass, but..."
Alas, accidents always come unexpectedly, so we can only face them bravely.
"So you're telling the truth," the ladies said sarcastically. "The fish tastes really bad. I don't see anyone catching it on weekdays. I thought it was just an excuse."
I couldn't help but wonder, "Can I catch him like this?"
"I don't know," Zhu Yuanyuan coughed lightly, "I'll just give it a try. It's the best I can catch. It doesn't matter if I can't catch it."
Ladies and gentlemen, "That's right."
After reluctantly explaining the matter clearly, Zhu Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled habitually, sweetly, "You are busy, I will think of other solutions."
What she didn't know was that the aunties were still discussing it after she left, which led to a heated argument.
The fish is so unpalatable that the little witch actually wants to catch it. Is it because the fish tastes unique, or is there something wrong with his mouth that prevents him from tasting good fish?
Not to mention the arguments between the ladies and aunts, they only said that after Zhu Yuanyuan left the lake, she first found a tall bush, took out the spare animal skin dress from the space and put it on, and then pulled many finger-thick vines to weave them into a fishing net. .
Just as he was about to try his luck, he heard the clan leader's angry roar, "It's time to eat~"
It is no exaggeration to say that the voice is three times stronger than a loudspeaker. I am afraid that it can be heard within a radius of four or five miles.
Everybody can hear it.
After sighing, Zhu Yuanyuan grabbed the vine net and rushed towards the temporary residence. She was not active in eating and had mental problems. She didn't want to go hungry.
As for the stone pot grilled fish, it can be eaten as a midnight snack.
Good guy, the arrangements have been made clearly before the fish is caught.
After waiting in line to get the rice, Zhu Yuanyuan ran to find her father and mother with a barbecue wrapped in big leaves in one hand and soup in a bamboo tube in the other.
Seeing her daughter, Zhu Xiaofen asked with concern, "Where have you been, and why are you not back until now?"
Catching fish is not a shameful thing, Zhu Yuanyuan answered honestly.
"So your Aunt Qing didn't coax me," Zhu Xiaofen said amusedly, "It's not like you've never eaten fish before. It tastes bad and has many thorns. How could you think of catching fish?"
In fact, the bad taste is not a big disadvantage. The main thing is that there are too many thorns, especially children.
In the past, when there was a shortage of food during the snow season, I had to catch more fish and prepare it. I would eat it when there was nothing to eat. It could fill my stomach at least. However, after Zhu Yuanyuan discovered and taught everyone how to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes, fish was eliminated from the diet of the tribe. .
The original owner actually had a deep impression in his memory. It was hard, bitter and fishy when eaten in his mouth, and his throat was always sore due to the thorns getting stuck, so much so that he would have physiological nausea when he saw the fish.
Perhaps because of empathy or because there was no shortage of meat to eat, Zhu Yuanyuan didn't think about catching fish to eat until he saw the big fish playing freely in the lake and suddenly wanted to eat it.
"I didn't know how to grill delicious fish before, but it's different now," she said nonsensically, "I would occasionally catch a few fish for fun when I went to the mountains to collect herbs, and I found that it's not difficult to make delicious grilled fish."
Zhu Xiaofen's eyes sparkled instantly, "Really? Then I have to try it. When are you going to catch fish?"
Zhu Yuanyuan looked at the dinner that she hadn't eaten yet, "I'll grab it after I finish eating."
"Yeah, eat it quickly," Zhu Xiaofen urged, thinking of what her friend just said, she added, "Let your eldest and second brothers accompany you. It's late at night. What should you do if your legs cramp after falling into the water?"
"Are you cursing me?" Zhu Yuanyuan asked.
"No," Zhu Xiaofen replied calmly, "I'm just worried about you."
Zhu Yuanyuan grinned and said sweetly, "I know my mother is the best to me."
After the meal, Brother Zhu dragged the reluctant second brother Zhu to follow his sister, found a deserted corner and started casting the net.
Zhu Yongyong said with great interest, "This vine net is well made. It should be able to catch fish."
"So what if it's caught in the net, it's so unpalatable," Zhu Yong frowned so hard that it was about to tie into knots, "I won't eat it anyway."
"Second brother, are you sure?" Zhu Yuanyuan asked.
Zhu Yongmeng vowed, "I'm sure!"
His attitude was extremely firm, but unfortunately he soon gave up on himself.
Zhu Yuanyuan caught several large fish weighing over a hundred kilograms in one net. She scraped the scales, disemboweled and cleaned them directly by the lake. She dug a hole under a nearby tree and buried the internal organs. When she returned to her temporary residence, she spread salt and spices on them and marinated them. Wait for half an hour before putting it on the fire.
The clan's stone pot was of no use at the moment, so I borrowed two of them, cut thicker potato slices, washed some freshly dug wild vegetables, and made two pots of fragrant grilled fish.
