C17 (1/2)
Tian Yuqiao and his sister went to the back of the mountain. In order to deceive others, they even went to the other side of the mountain and thought that this was enough.
He let Yutang sit on the rock to rest while Tian Yuqiao began collecting dried wood. Fortunately, the harvest had just ended and everyone in the village had stored a lot of straw from the ground. Very few people went up the mountain to pick firewood.
Soon, they found a bundle of firewood. The siblings also picked up rocks from the surroundings and built a temporary stove. In reality, it was just a small ring made up of a few stones.
He placed the small pot on top of it, and it was surprisingly just right. The two of them were immediately amused and felt a sense of accomplishment.
Using flint to draw in the firewood, Tian Yuqiao placed the long sliced fat meat into a small pot and poured it into the oil to be handcuffed.
A sizzling sound was immediately followed by the smell of meat.
The little guy's nose twitched rapidly, looking very innocent and cute. Tian Yuqiao smiled and said, ”Hehe, look at you. You're just like a greedy little cat.”
”Sis, this smell is all coming from the oil. I want to smell a little more. Otherwise, if this meat fragrance floats away, it will also be our loss.”
”Pfft.” Tian Yuqiao could not hold it in and burst out laughing.
This little guy really knows how to scheme. When the smell floats away, it's his own loss. He really is a young man who knows how to live his life.
The first batch of oil had gradually turned yellow and was floating on the surface. There was also a small pot of meat oil in the pot.
Tian Yuqiao used his hand to break off two thin branches and picked up a piece of oil that was floating about. After blowing on it, it was fed to Yutang.
”Ya, it's really delicious. Usually, the oil in the house is only shared by Fourth Uncle and my aunt. Hehe, so this is the taste of the oil! I feel like it's even more fragrant than meat.” Yutang smiled with narrowed eyes.
Tian Yuqiao was not satisfied with how the little guy was acting. Lady Li, that repulsive old demoness, was actually so biased that it could cause one's hair to stand on end. Thankfully, they had separated this time. In the future, he would definitely let his family have a good meal and wear warm clothes.
Tian Yuqiao swore inwardly, but he did not stop what he was doing. He continued to add more fat to the wok.
The smell of meat oil became more and more fragrant, and soon spread throughout the entire mountain. When mixed with the morning mist, it actually had an indescribable charm.
After a few sounds of ”pfft pfft”, Tian Yuqiao immediately became more alert.
”Sis, don't be afraid. This is the sound of a wild chicken. You don't know that a wild chicken is powerful. It is prettier than our own chicken, but it can still fly.” And when they open their wings, it's that big. ”
While Tian Yutang was speaking, he was also dancing and describing the size and shape of the wild chicken to his heart's content. At this moment, the corner of his mouth was covered in a shiny, oily gloss from eating the oil.
Tian Yuqiao thought, since there was a wild chicken here, it was really great. Seeing that he had finished cooking the meat, Tian Yuqiao decided to try his luck. What if he met a dumb wild chicken? Wouldn't he be able to have an extra meal tonight?
After fishing out the last piece of oil, Tian Yuqiao instructed Yutang, ”Little brother, you stay here for now. Once the oil has cooled down, I'll go over there to take a look.”
”Sis, are you trying to catch a pheasant? That wild chicken is not easy to catch, you'd better be careful. ” The little guy reminded her with a hint of worry.
”Don't worry, big sis will be back soon.” After Tian Yuqiao finished speaking, he carried the broken bamboo basket with him and walked towards the direction where the wild chicken had flapped its wings.
