The reason why I say this is because the people in the hunting team are usually known to be stingy.

Some people are only willing to eat meat once every half a year or even once a year. When they go to exchange the money, the guys have to figure it out clearly and won't give out any more minced meat.

I didn't expect to be so generous today. I gave him twice as much meat and even a bone.

Unlike the happy Xu Xiong, Zhou Yi frowned when he looked at the palm-sized piece of meat.

Because according to Zhou Yi's estimation, this piece of meat is only a pound at most.

The total number of plants Xu Hu collected before was more than 30, but only a little bit of meat was exchanged.

And according to what Xu Hu and Xu Xiong said, this amount of meat is still given too much. If not, it would be less.

This made Zhou Yi couldn't help but sigh.

I don’t know if supplies are really scarce here, or if the leadership of Xiaozhu Town is evil-minded.

When Zhou Yi was thinking.

Xu Xiong on the side had already taken the bones and meat from Xu Hu and squatted directly at the door to process them.

The bones are chopped into pieces and thrown into the pot.

As for the meat, carefully cut it in half, then cut the half into small pieces and throw them into the pot together.

As for the remaining half, Xu Xiong wrapped it in leaves and stored it carefully.

Not long after, a smell of meat spread at the door of Xu Hu's house, attracting frequent glances from the children around him.

But what surprised Zhou Yi was that although these children were swallowing their saliva, none of them came over.

Seemingly seeing Zhou Yi's gaze, Xu Hu sat next to him and explained.

“Even though those children are still very young, they are already very sensible.

The reason why they didn't come over was because the adults at home had taught them that it was not easy for every family to eat meat once.

If you go there when others are eating meat, people in other people’s homes will eat less.

So even if they are very greedy, they will not take the initiative to come over. "

When he said this, Xu Hu sighed, and Zhou Yi, who was listening on the side, was also startled.

If this is really the case, it means that although the people here are not living well, they are very simple.

And having such people means that the management here cannot be too bad.

From this point of view, the reason why the special plants collected are exchanged for less meat.

Maybe it's not because the leadership is evil, but because Xiaozhu Town is really short of supplies, so it can only save a little bit.

Not long after, as the rich aroma of meat spread, Xu Hu's dinner was finally ready.

Several people gathered neatly around the iron pot, and by the light of the fire, Xu's mother began to serve everyone food.

Of course, the first person to get his rice bowl was the guest Zhou Yi.

When he saw his bowl half full of meat, Zhou Yi was obviously stunned.

Because if I remember correctly, the meat that was put into the pot just now was only half the size of a palm.

And now giving half a bowl to yourself directly means that it is basically impossible for others to eat the meat.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yi looked into the bowls of others.

Looking at it, Zhou Yi discovered that apart from his own bowl, there were only a few slices of meat in Xu Hu's bowl.

Then there are two children. There are not much meat and bones in their bowls.

Even so, the two children held the bones and chewed them happily, wishing they could break them into pieces.

As for Xu Xiong and Xu's mother, there were not even bones in their bowls, only two bowls of soup filled with black lumps made of unknown materials.

Holding the rice bowl and smelling the aroma of meat inside, Xu Hu swallowed and was ready to start.

But he found that Zhou Yi, who was sitting next to him, just looked at the meat in the bowl without touching it.

This made Xu Hu show a puzzled expression, and then reminded him hurriedly.

"Brother Zhou, please eat quickly. When the meat cools down, it won't taste as good as it does now!"

After reminding Zhou Yi, Xu Hu grabbed two black lumps from the side, broke them into several pieces, soaked them in a bowl, and started to devour these pieces of meat hungrily.

From the time he left home in the morning until now, Xu Hu only ate two Baiwei steamed buns, also known as black lumps, during his lunch break.

So now I am very hungry and have no time to be polite to others.

Watching Xu Hu gobble it up.

Zhou Yi also knew why in this house, only Xu Hu's bowl could see slices of meat.

That's because the Xu family now relies on Xu Hu alone to support themselves, so he needs to eat more.

As for me, although I am a guest, it is definitely not appropriate to eat half a bowl of meat directly.

In addition, I am different from the Xu family.

They are reluctant to eat meat even once every half a year, and as long as they want to eat, they can hunt prey at any time.

So it doesn’t matter whether you eat this meal or not.

On the contrary, the two children needed this meat meal more than themselves.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yi stood up and walked around Xu Hu.

First, he gave half of the meat in his bowl to each of the two children.

After all the meat was cut off, he took another bowl of soup from the pot and grabbed two black lumps from the side.

Follow Xu Xiong's example, break it open and soak it in a bowl.

The Xu family, who were eating, obviously didn't react when they saw Zhou Yi's actions.

Especially the two children, looking at the extra meat in the bowl, were so frightened that they even forgot to chew the bones.

Zhou Yi, who pretended to be mute, could not speak at this time and could only make eating movements to signal them to eat quickly.

Xu Xiong, who finally reacted, stood up directly with his rice bowl in hand.

"Brother Zhou, what are you doing? This meat is for you to eat. What do you want to share with them?"

Seeing Xu Xiong's excited reaction, Zhou Yi hurriedly waved his hand for him to sit down, and then began to make gestures.

It took a few minutes for Zhou Yi to let the Xu family understand that he usually did not lack meat.

Today I just wanted to taste the black pimples, so I divided the meat in the bowl between the two children.

After the Xu family understood it, they no longer struggled.

After all, it can be seen from Zhou Yi's physique that Zhou Yi is a person who is not short of food.

The two children who had received permission happily ate the meat slices in their bowls.

At the same time, he looked at Zhou Yi while eating, and couldn't help but think in his heart that this uncle is really a good person.

After dinner, before I had time to clean up, the torch on the rock wall suddenly went out.

This also made everyone understand that it was getting late.

The two children were sent to bed directly, while Xu Xiong and Xu's mother started to put away the dishes and clean up by the light of the fire under the pot.

As for Xu Hu and Zhou Yi, they sat aside and watched, chatting for a while.

Of course it was said to be chatting, but in fact it was Xu Hu talking and Zhou Yi listening.

"When we were eating just now, Brother Zhou said that you often eat meat and wanted to try the taste of Baiwei steamed buns.

Then he gave the meat to Sanya and Siwazi.

In fact, I know that Brother Zhou, you feel sorry for them, so you find an excuse to share the meat with them. "

When he said this, Xu Hu suddenly remembered that Zhou Yi didn't know what Baiwei Mantou was.

Then he continued to explain.

"By the way, the Baiwei steamed buns are the black pimples I just ate.

Our Xiaozhu Town, like most other small towns, has no place around where it can be planted, and of course we don’t dare to do so.

There are too many changing factors around, and no one knows whether they will be able to wait until the time of harvest if they waste seeds sowing.

Fortunately, there is a clean underground spring below our town, and game can be hunted around it.

The mayor used the water everyone saved and most of the prey he hunted to join forces with other surrounding towns and contact some merchants wandering nearby.

Then use these supplies to exchange for some food that is enough for us to eat for a year, which is what is used to make Baiwei steamed buns.

It is said that it is made from more than 100 kinds of seeds, fruits and even straws of various plants, so it tastes strange.

But although it doesn't taste good, it can fill your stomach.

So that people don’t go hungry…”
