The Princess of the Substitute Bride Strikes Back

"My husband, I didn't expect you to be so skilled. You prepared the wolf meat in an orderly manner and cut the wolf skin intact. After tanning, it can be used as a mattress or clothing."

Mu Yibai's skills opened her eyes. When she did anatomical experiments in her previous life, she only studied certain parts of the animals. She never thought that he could cut wolf meat into strips with just a knife. The wisdom of the ancients is truly endless, and it is no different from how a butcher cuts a cow.

"These are common skills. There is nothing to be surprised about. Once I tan the wolf skin, I can make shoes and blankets for you. If this is okay, I will treat these wolves in the same way."

Mu Yibai sat in a wheelchair, looking up at Fu Yunxi with a faint smile on his face, and his words gave people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.

"Okay, that's great. I'll mix the ingredients and marinate them."

With Fu Yunxi's affirmation and praise, Mu Yibai worked even harder!

Fu Yunxi prepared a large pot of secret marinade, which was actually made with oil, salt, chili pepper, cumin powder and other ingredients in the space. In ancient times, there were fewer condiments and the taste was generally light. The aroma of this pot of seasoning spread far away, making everyone drool.

The meat of the two wolves just filled up a large basin. Fu Yunxi took out four large basins without hesitation and prepared to marinate the meat at the same time. Anyway, every family now has a cart, and their luggage had been brought back from the Chen family a long time ago and was covered with cloth. No one knew what supplies were inside, and taking out only a few basins would not attract attention.

"Second brother, light the fire first, and then make a rack. Sister-in-law, come and help me fillet the meat."

The steps to make bacon are actually very simple, and the production methods vary from place to place, but bacon is definitely the easiest way to preserve meat for the longest time.

"Second sister-in-law, how come you know everything? I've never seen this smoked meat before."

Liu was quick and skillful. She followed Fu Yunxi's instructions and skewered the meat with iron hooks. She would just hang it up to smoke it later.

"This is nothing, just marinate it with seasonings, then smoke it over the fire, and you'll see it when it's cooked."

"This sauce smells so good. I've never smelled such a fragrant seasoning before."

"The key to the deliciousness of this bacon lies in the sauce, and the seasonings used are also very common. By the way, do you like spicy food? How spicy is our family's tolerance?"

Fu Yunxi thought that plants like chili peppers and cumin should have existed in ancient times, but they had not yet been widely used as seasonings in cooking. If someone in the family cannot eat spicy food, just put less chili peppers, or just make something non-spicy.

"I like spicy food. I still can't forget the chopped pepper fish head dish I had a few days ago! Hehe, my grandmother, Jiaojiao, and Lin Xue don't seem to be able to eat strong flavors, but the others are okay."

"Okay, then let's make two pots of spicy food and three pots of non-spicy food." Fu Yunxi made the decision.

"Yes, yes, it smells so good. I can't wait."

After Mu Yiheng started the fire, Fu Yunxi and Liu began to smoke the meat. The temperature was very important and it could not be smoked directly with an open fire. It would only take about two hours to smoke with a dark fire.

They will eat the smoked meat on the way, so it doesn't need to be smoked for too long, two hours is enough.

The big house was bustling with activity and filled with fragrance.

This smoked meat also gives everyone an inspiration. In such hot weather, it is definitely not easy to preserve meat. It would be much more convenient if it were made into smoked meat.

But they won’t do it!

Wang Ling was a straightforward person. He and Han took a wolf directly to Fu Yunxi and Fu Yunxi: "Sister-in-law, I am a rough man. My family can cook, but we are not good at smoking meat. Can you teach us how to smoke meat? This wolf is for you."

"Look at what you are saying. Yan'er and I are as close as sisters. Why do I need you to exchange the wolf for it? Smoked meat is very simple. I can teach you even the most difficult dishes. You can take the wolf back." Fu Yunxi refused.

On this road of exile, the meat of a wolf cannot be underestimated. It is enough for a family to survive for a few days. There is no need for their family and the Wang family to be so estranged, so Fu Yunxi will not accept the wolf meat.

"That's great. Thank you in advance, sister-in-law. My Yan'er learns things very quickly." After praising his wife, Wang Ling happily went to find Mu Yibai.

However, he was met with a cold shoulder. "You should go back and clean the wolf meat. I don't need any help here." Mu Yibai arranged the strips of wolf meat neatly. His wife had just praised him for his good cooking skills. He had to keep working hard and not let others take all the credit.

"Okay! Then I'll get busy. If you're too busy, remember to call me." Wang Ling was confused. Brother Mu usually wouldn't refuse so straightforwardly! But he didn't think much about it. He still had work to do at home.

"Master, Master, I also want to learn how to smoke meat. Can I ask Master's wife to teach me?" Chen Jianzhong saw Fu Yunxi teaching Liu and Han how to smoke meat, and hurried over to ask for advice.

Mu Yibai didn't expect his wife to be so popular. She stayed up all night and taught others how to smoke meat.

"Got it, Master, don't worry, I'm very smart, I'll leave as soon as I learn it, and I won't bother her."

After getting Mu Yibai's consent, Chen Jianzhong went to find Fu Yunxi. He knew very well that his master loved his mistress, so he studied with extra concentration.

Others, out of shame, did not step forward to learn how to smoke the meat. They just watched from a distance and then followed suit.

However, due to insufficient seasoning, the taste of their dishes was far inferior to that of the Mu family's eldest son's, and some were even burnt.

Zheng Chengyuan was extremely intoxicated by the aroma of meat. He had never smelled such an enticing smell in his entire life.

Mu Yibai's wife is indeed an excellent cook. After today, he knew that he should not underestimate this couple, so he decided to go and ask them in person.

"Mr. Mu, I have two things I want to discuss with you."

"Sir, please feel free to speak up. No need to be polite."

Mu Yibai guessed the purpose of Zheng Chengyuan's visit.

"First, I ordered us to rest here, not only because we didn't rest last night and need to collect wolf meat, but also because the territory ahead is the Yunmu Village. This village has been occupying the mountain for a long time, and I'm afraid our journey will not be smooth."

Zheng Chengyuan expressed his concerns.

When he passed by before, he had been at peace with Yunmu Village. Occasionally, when he encountered them coming down the mountain to rob, he could just give them some silver and the matter would be settled. But now it was a famine year and the situation was unpredictable.

Who knows if they will covet their food during this famine? Although they have no surplus food, the dozens of wolves they captured are rare treasures. If they are targeted by the village owner, they may be in danger of their lives.

"It's okay, just deal with it as it happens."

Mu Yibai did not take Yunmu Village seriously. In his previous life, they had run out of ammunition and food, and the team suffered heavy casualties. They did not encounter any robbery when passing by Qifeng Village. In this life, although there were many changes, their team's combat power was not weak, and a mountain village was nothing to be afraid of.

"Since Master Mu is so sure, I feel relieved."

He didn't expect Mu Yibai to be so free and easy, and he worried for nothing.

"It's just that I have something else I want to discuss with you."

As he spoke, Zheng Chengyuan was already drooling at the aroma of the meat.

"Sir, please speak frankly. We are busy smoking wolf meat right now."

When Mu Yibai saw Zheng Chengyuan's hesitation to speak and his drooling face, he knew what he was thinking, but he didn't want his wife to be tired anymore.
