While the two beasts were busy on the side, Su Yu washed the pot and then stir-fried the water.
It was full of spiciness and added a little bit of sour fruit juice. The taste made Su Yu struggle to control her saliva.
Put the water out of the pot, followed by the red fruit and mushroom meat slices.
The pot was very big, but Su Yu had a lot of strength, otherwise just stir-frying the meat in that pot would not be an easy task.
He was so busy that he was sweating. After taking the fried meat out of the pot, Su Yu filled half of the stewed meat and brought it to the table.
Rather than calling Shana and his son immediately, Su Yu washed herself before leaving the cave.
Under the small platform, a lot of earth and rocks have accumulated. Even if Su Yu didn't enter the new hole, she could guess that a lot of new holes had been dug.
"Father, Xia Na, come back for dinner first!" Su Yu stood at the entrance of the main cave and shouted loudly.
"Okay, come on!" The person who answered was Xia Na.
Hearing the response, Su Yu turned back to the cave and soon brought a large basin of water.
Not long after Su Yu put down the basin, Xia Na and Xia Qing came out of the new hole next door.
"You must be exhausted, wash your hands first, and then have dinner!" Su Yu looked at Xia Na walking in front and said with a smile.
"Hey, you're not tired." Xia Na grinned, looking like a fool.
Xia Qing, who was following behind, was a little doubtful whether this was his son.
But when he thought about Shana's deceased mother, he felt that this was how a married male should look in front of his partner.
As a bystander, Xia Qing felt happy watching his son get along with his partner.
After the two beasts washed their hands, Xia Na carried the empty basin back to the cave. Su Yu had already filled the fruit rice.
One person and two animals began to feast.
The dinner was quite satisfying to the beast.
After Xia Qing had dinner, he didn't stay much and left.
During dinner, Su Yu already knew that the new hole had been basically dug. Tomorrow, Xia Na would simply clean it up and let it dry for a day before filling it with firewood.
"Xia Na, let's go to the small slope by the river tomorrow and try burning charcoal?" Su Yu asked tentatively.
Su Yu remembered that there was a slope not far from the river. There were not many big trees and not many weeds around it. It should have been cleaned up by the tribal orcs.
The important point is that the slope is some distance away from the tribe and close to the river. Su Yu thinks it would be safer to burn charcoal there.
Xia Na basically does whatever Su Yu says now, especially when it comes to things he doesn't understand, and he is "submissive" to Su Yu.
In the early morning of the second day, Xia Na finished the new cave first, while Su Yu was in charge of breakfast.
After breakfast, Su Yu went to the witch doctor to study as usual. Xia Na followed Su Yu's instructions. He first dug a kiln on the slope by the river, and then went to the forest to find a kiln. Piles of dry firewood.
Su Yu didn’t know that Xia Na could do things surprisingly fast without him by his side.
After learning about it later, she began to reflect. Perhaps this was why the females in the tribe basically did not follow the males out.
It’s entirely because the female is “lagging behind”!
Fortunately, after Su Yu came, the females no longer had to "do nothing", weaving straw mattresses, making animal skin clothing, animal skin shoes, etc. The females of the tribe also participated in daily life.
When Su Yu came back from the witch doctor, Xia Na had almost finished lunch.
After having lunch, one person and one animal only sat and rested for a short while before starting today's busy work.
Su Yu has never made charcoal before, and the memory of making charcoal in her mind is a chat with her grandma.
Su Yu knew that she could not succeed once, and she was prepared to fail many times. Therefore, in the trial stage, Su Yu asked Xia Na to prepare a small earthen kiln.
But when she arrived at the place and saw two earthen kilns, one large and one small, and a lot of dry firewood, she was shocked by Su Yu, Shana's manager. of.
Looking at Xia Na with eyes full of admiration, Su Yu did not hesitate to praise him.
"Xia Na, you are so awesome!" Su Yu gave Xia Na a thumbs up.
Xia Na was praised, the tips of her ears turned red, and she narrowed her eyes happily.
He held his chest high, patted his own, and said, "Xiao Yu'er, no matter what happens in the future, just tell me. Even if I haven't done it, as long as you teach me, I will definitely learn it!"
Hearing this, Su Yu pursed her lips and smiled, but also nodded repeatedly.
He kept praising Xia Na, praising him not only for his speed, but also for his excellent work!
One person and one beast were talking and busy at the same time.
The small earthen kiln was not big, so Su Yu arranged the dry firewood pieces cut short by Xia Na and placed them in the earthen kiln.
In the center of the firewood pile, leave some space and light it with dry branches and leaves.
The dry branches and leaves quickly lit the firewood pile, while Su Yu and Xia Na watched the whole process.
After all the firewood burned, Su Yu estimated the time and asked Xia Na to seal the kiln.
Su Yu tried to make charcoal for the first time, and she was not sure how long it would take to open the kiln after it was sealed.
To be on the safe side, Su Yu decided to come back and open the kiln tomorrow after Xia Na came back from hunting.
After finishing their work, Su Yu and Xia Na returned to the tribe.
But when he went back, Shana carried away two large bundles of dry firewood.
There was no other way. In just one morning, Xia Na collected a lot and carried away two large bundles. What was left was still enough for Su Yu to burn several more kilns.
After returning to the cave, it was still very early for dinner.
Xia Na decided to go out again. In addition to collecting more firewood, there were not many red fruits and crunchy fruits in the food storage cave. He planned to collect some more.
Xia Na asked Su Yu if he wanted to come together. Su Yu thought for two seconds and finally refused.
There was more meat in the food storage hole. Su Yu planned to save enough meat for tomorrow and make other meat into dried meat.
Su Yu and Xia Na have now stocked up on a lot of dried meat, not counting what Su Yu quietly took into the space.
But Su Yu felt that such a small amount of dried meat was not enough for the long cold and rainy seasons. They needed more.
Xia Na did not want Su Yu to go out with him, but Su Yu was willing to stay, which made him happier.
After Xia Na left, Su Yu began to cut and marinate the meat.
Because there is only one person, the speed is much slower.
Fortunately, there is not much meat here. Once it is marinated, it only takes two wooden basins.
Su Yu had just marinated the meat strips and before she had time to wash her hands, Xia Na came back with a full harvest.
How rewarding it is.
The basket on the back contains most of the basket of crispy fruits. On the surface of the crispy fruits, there are about twenty clucking furry eggs protected by withered grass.
On his shoulders was a small bundle (for Su Yu, it was a large bundle) of firewood. The firewood was cut into a length of just over two meters, and an almost full animal skin bag hung on both ends.
Xia Na’s right hand is holding the “polar” of firewood, and his free left hand is actually carrying three clucking furry beasts!
