Mingyi was stunned for a moment, silently watching the rabbit disappear.
"My rabbit~"
It's rare to see my sister lost like this. Listening to the sound, you can tell how uncomfortable it is.
Cheng Mingli rubbed his little head, "I'll go back to my mother to get a knife. Anyway, I don't need a kitchen knife for cooking at home for the time being. It should be fine if I borrow it and no one will find out."
"Okay~" Mingyi perked up instantly, "Brother, go quickly. It would be better if we could call dad and mom. We don't know how to handle rabbits, and we don't know how to skin them, but mom and dad can."
"Let's eat the roasted rabbit. We'll go back when we're full." There was always a lack of oil and water in her stomach, which made her feel uncomfortable!
"Okay, I'll tell my parents; it would be best if they are willing to come, and if they don't want to let my brother handle it. My brother has seen how my father and uncle peeled the skin. It's always possible to try more." He smiled and said : "After baking, you have to leave some for your grandparents. As juniors, you can't eat alone."
Mingyi pouted, "If my grandparents know about it, others will know about it too."
"My grandparents know what we are doing, and we should do what we should do; the rest is not something we should worry about. If our grandparents really tell us that we have rabbit meat, just don't take it back next time, and give it all to my sister."
Mingyi stopped talking.
People in ancient times were troublesome, and my grandfather and grandmother were really good to them. They were two kind old people.
It was precisely because of her kindness that she gave in to Cheng Mingyue at every turn; otherwise, she would have been beaten on the day of time travel.
It's just because she cares about the elderly in her family that she is more tolerant to Cheng Mingyue, but that's all; it would be a big mistake to think that she would always be patient for the sake of the elderly. Everyone's tolerance has its limit.
Don't challenge others' bottom line, because the consequences may not be something you can bear.
Cheng Mingyue just didn't understand this truth. She was spoiled. She didn't enjoy the education of sticks, so she always screamed and deserved to be beaten.
She didn't say much. She had already seen a little bit of her grandmother's demeanor of focusing on a bowl of water, so she had to weigh her filial piety towards her.
It's not that she has a problem with her grandmother, but that she has a problem with Cheng Mingyue; as long as her grandmother wants her to give in to Cheng Mingyue, she will feel uncomfortable, and if she doesn't give it, she won't give it.
Cheng Mingli didn't think too much and just told her not to wander around here, and then trotted back.
Entering the valley, he saw the clan chief and village chief leading people into the pond; he walked quietly to his father Cheng Yuanxi and pulled the corners of his clothes.
Cheng Yuanxi looked down in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Dad, my sister and I need to borrow a kitchen knife."
"What to do with a kitchen knife?" Cheng Yuanxi frowned. Kitchen knives are valuable items in every household and cannot be given to children to play with.
Cheng Mingli looked around, pulled Cheng Yuanxi to a deserted corner, and said under Cheng Yuanxi's puzzled eyes.
"Dad, my sister and I caught a wild rabbit. My sister wants to eat roasted rabbit; we can't skin it without a knife."
"You caught a rabbit again?" Why are my son and daughter so lucky?
They wandered around the valley for a long time without seeing a wild rabbit, nor a pheasant; they went out for a wander and caught it? Is it their luck as adults to not have children?
"Let's go, take me to see it." He didn't ask why he didn't bring it back.
The people of the clan are here, how will they divide the children they bring back? Moreover, Cheng Yuanxi doesn't want to be taken advantage of all the time. No matter why the children are not brought back, it is always good for him and his family.
"Bring a knife, Dad."
"knew."
Cheng Yuanxi found his wife, took a smaller kitchen knife and hid it on his body. After talking to the Cheng Yuandong brothers, he took his son and left.
When he met tribesmen coming one after another on the road, Cheng Yuanxi greeted them one by one; when asked, he just said that he was looking for something to eat, and others didn't ask any more questions.
Arriving at Mingyi's location, Cheng Yuanxi saw three wild rabbits lying on the ground at a glance; one with gray fur, one with white cat fur, and one with much darker gray fur.
The three have a common characteristic - they are quite fat.
The lightest one weighs five or six pounds.
"Dad." Mingyi stood up happily and ran over.
"Be good." Cheng Yuanxi touched his daughter's hair and looked up at the surrounding environment. The grass was not green, but it was lush. No wonder the rabbits here grew so well. "How did you catch the rabbits?"
Cheng Mingli said: "Find the rabbit hole and smoke it."
"Smart, well done." Giving his children an appreciative look, Cheng Yuanxi knelt down and lifted two rabbits to the edge of the pool, and sent a pair of children away, "Aren't we going to roast rabbits? You two go and collect firewood; three rabbits We need a lot of firewood and more big branches.”
If it burns for a long time, the small one will burn for a while and then you need to add more firewood. Then you have to pick up as much firewood as you need.
"Okay, Dad."
Mingyi was so happy that she dragged her brother away.
There are not many things in the mountains and forests, but there are a lot of dead branches; there are even more fallen trees on the ground. These dead trees are already dead and will fall off after a period of decay.
Therefore, there are many branches on the ground.
They walked six or seven times, big and small, and the firewood they picked back was like a mountain.
At this time, Cheng Yuanxi also skinned and cleaned the three rabbits. He personally found three relatively strong branches and peeled them. Then he washed them and put them on the rabbits. The rabbit heads were gone. Without the meat, it would not taste good when grilled. .
The rabbit's head should not be chopped off and thrown away. Cheng Yuanxi first set up the firewood and set it on fire, then dug a hole for the rabbit's head and buried it.
Mingyi and Cheng Mingli moved the beehive, "Dad, use honey."
"You two know how to find food." Cheng Yuanxi smiled slightly, his children were excited, and he, as a father, was also happy, "You are also very lucky. You brought two rabbits with you last time; now you have caught three more , I wonder if you have managed to catch all the rabbits in this area."
Mingyi shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, my brother and I won't catch pregnant female rabbits."
"Well, one of them ran away when we smoked the rabbit hole. We couldn't catch it at that time, and it won't become extinct." Cheng Mingli wiped the sweat, and then wiped the sweat from his sister's forehead, tip of nose, and face.
As a father, Cheng Yuanxi was very pleased to see that his son was so sensible and caring, "You are all my good children. We used to run around in the mountains a lot, so you should know better than to catch all the slack."
"I know, Dad." Cheng Mingli nodded.
Cheng Yuanxi was satisfied and stopped preaching. He pried open the honey with a kitchen knife, washed his hands and grabbed honey from the hive to smear on the hares. The three hares used more than half of the honey from the hive, and smeared some more on the way. The three rabbits roasted When it's ripe, there's not much honey left.
The aroma of roasted meat mixed with honey made Mingyi swallow her saliva.
Cheng Mingli was not much better, honey is a valuable thing; they ran to the mountains all year round and never encountered a few hives in a year, and they had never had such a luxury to roast the whole hive.
Don't know how delicious it is.
greedy!
