True to his word, Shiraishi got up early the next day, took his companions out of the valley to search in the woods before dawn, and easily captured eight mutant pheasants and a dozen mutant rabbits.
They were lucky enough to encounter a non-mutated sheep on the way home, so they didn't let it go.
"The early bird catches the worm, the early bird catches the sheep," Shiraishi joked.
"No, no, no," Zhu Yuanyuan shook her head repeatedly, "Keep the sheep that have not mutated first and put them into the space to raise."
"Why do you keep so many if you don't like eating?" Shiraishi asked curiously.
Zhu Yuanyuan's eyes widened, "When did I say I don't like mutton anymore?"
"You never said that," Shiraishi said calmly, "but I remember that when dividing meat, you preferred beef and rarely mutton."
"Oh~ So that's what you're talking about," Zhu Yuanyuan pursed her lips and smiled, "I just think mutton is too irritating, and eating it in summer and autumn can easily lead to irritation, so I plan to eat it during the snow season."
The stone house built behind her house is not big enough to expand the breeding scale. She plans to raise more in the space and strive to achieve the freedom of making mutton as soon as possible.
Moreover, the mutated mutton is older and not as tender as the non-mutated mutton. If you have a choice, you will naturally choose the better one next time.
Shiraishi suddenly realized, "So that's it."
Although I don’t understand why my companion believes that mutton is very hot and not suitable for eating in summer and autumn, he secretly made up his mind to take people to catch chickens, rabbits and sheep when he is not busy in the future.
It's okay to say that pheasants and hares taste good regardless of whether they are mutated or not. Only the sheep have to catch the non-mutated ones.
After having gained a lot, the two returned to the tribe empty-handed. They did not pay attention to the strange looks from the orcs on duty. They returned home happily and took some soy milk, corn roast and steak from the space cabin for breakfast. , I feel full after eating.
"It's such a blessing not to have to make breakfast," Zhu Yuanyuan said with an intoxicated face, "If I had known this, I should have told you about the existence of space earlier."
Obviously there is the trump card of the Tongxin Talisman, so there is no need to worry about being betrayed, but my brain is not bright enough to forget it, and I have missed so many nights in space to escape the heat...
Emma, I can't think about it. The more I think about it, the angrier I get. I really want to go back and beat my stupid self.
"It's not too late to say it now," Shiraishi said emotionally without understanding, "I'm very happy to gain your trust."
Zhu Yuanyuan blinked her big eyes and fed her companion the confused soup, "Brother Ashi is so good to me, I should trust you. It would be unreliable if I don't tell you~"
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Just as the air was filled with pink bubbles, there was a disturbing knock on the door outside.
"Open the door, open the door," Zhu He yelled outside. "We started harvesting potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes today. The leader asked everyone to get up early to help. Don't even think about escaping."
Zhu Yuanyuan and Bai Shi looked at each other, "When did this happen? Didn't the leader mention it when we were dividing the meat last night?"
There were constant knocks on the door, and the two of them didn't dare to delay any longer. They hurriedly got up to open the door, but they heard the creak of the door opening coming from next door.
"Everyone has to go, do I have to go too?" Hu Yin asked coldly.
"Uh~" Zhu He was embarrassed, "No, what the great witch has to do every day is more important than digging potatoes. Where can I let you do those strenuous tasks?"
Hu Yin asked again, "What about my apprentice?"
"Yuan Yuan is very strong and gets up early every day, so she won't be tired even if you ask her to help with the work." Zhu He coughed lightly and said bravely, "Don't worry, Da Wu, she will come back to you when the sun comes out." Let’s start.”
Hu Yin was stunned. He thought that if he opened his mouth, the former leader of the Black Pig Clan would change his words, he never thought...
"Grandpa He," Zhu Yuanyuan opened the courtyard door and said unhappily, "You are trying to force me to dig potatoes. Why, I am so strong that I have to be squeezed?"
After autumn, the herb collection team harvested more and more. She was so busy every day that she ate later and later every day. She even thought that she had less work to do and wanted to exploit it in other ways.
That's enough. The production team's donkeys still have time to rest, so why can't she?
"Don't you think you are awesome?" Zhu He rubbed
Hands, "Actually, digging potatoes just takes some time and is not very tiring."
If she hadn't dug potatoes with her own hands, Zhu Yuanyuan would have almost believed it. She pouted and retorted unhappily, "If it's not hard for your farming team to dig potatoes yourself, why do you need to ask the whole tribe to help?"
Good guy, even the disciples of the great witch are not spared. Shouldn’t those three-headed cubs and the old orcs who can’t walk have to go too?
"In order to keep everyone in the field from going hungry during the snow season, we planted a lot," Zhu He explained with a grimace. "It was also last night that I went around all the fields and realized that there were too many things to harvest and there were too many manpower. Seriously inadequate."
It really sounded like a helpless move, but Zhu Yuanyuan didn't believe it, "If we don't have enough manpower, we can find another way. For example, we can bring in female orcs from the snake and black bear tribes to help. After that, we can give some potatoes or something to the people who come to help. "
Anyway, I have planted a lot this year and harvested a lot, so it doesn’t matter if I go out a little bit.
"Hey, this is a good idea, little big witch. I don't know if they are willing to do it," Zhu He rolled his eyes, "I'll go talk to the leader and them."
He turned around and ran away quickly.
"Wait..." Zhu Yuanyuan was stunned, "Why are you running so fast? Do we still need to go to the fields to help?"
"I didn't say not to go, so I have to go," Shiraishi sighed, "Let's go."
"Oh~" Zhu Yuanyuan said pitifully, "But I haven't eaten breakfast yet."
"And my breakfast," Hu Yin added, "Are you ready?"
"It's ready," Shiraishi said hurriedly, "Great Witch, I'll go in and take it out in a moment."
As for what his companion said about not eating breakfast, he could only smile bitterly. His belly was bulging and his mouth was shiny. It looked like he hadn't eaten.
Bai Shi wanted to cover it up, but Hu Yin had already seen the flaw, "Stupid girl, wipe your mouth clean before eating."
Zhu Yuanyuan, "!!!"
The secret was exposed, and the master didn't turn a blind eye and ignore her, but even exposed it in person. Do you want to be so ruthless?
The young apprentice's disbelief made Hu Yin laugh angrily, "Hey, there are only three of us here, and you guys are from the same room. You know what you are eating or not. Aren't you just trying to fool me? Why don't you let me tell you?" "
"I'm not, I don't have it, don't make blind guesses," Zhu Yuanyuan waved her hands repeatedly, "Master, listen to my quibbles, I'm talking to Grandpa He."
"He has gone far and cannot be heard," Hu Yin said expressionlessly.
"Who says you can't hear me," Zhu Yuanyuan muttered, "Grandpa He is the most inconsiderate. He often talks about leaving while people hide in the dark and eavesdrop."
This time it was Hu Yin's turn to be stunned, "Is there such a thing?"
"Of course there is, it's just that Master has never met him before and doesn't know about it," Zhu Yuanyuan vowed, "If you don't believe it, let's catch up and take a look. He must not be far away yet."
Hu Yin's heart was moved, and just when he was about to nod in agreement, Bai Shi, who had gone in to get him breakfast, came out with a clay pot, "Master, I only stewed some meat this morning. Eat it while it's hot."
