Prehistoric Widows Survival [Farming]

With so many orcs, it was impossible for Lu Er to feed them all.

He cut the tofu into small pieces, and together with the cloud spot bird sent by Yong, he fried it dry on a flat earthenware pot and then simmered it to make a stew.

The last time Yong Helie brought the cloud-spotted bird over, after Lu Wei tasted it, he found that the wild bird was damn fresh, not much worse than the chicken in the previous life.

But according to Yong, the cloud-spotted bird is very alert and hard to catch. After Yong becomes a beast, he is more careful than he is careful.

Yesterday, Yong was lucky and caught two more cloud-spotted birds, and warmly invited Lu Yi to eat them together. Lu You cooked the soup with the newly made soft tofu, and found that the cloud-spotted tofu soup after the two phases were superimposed was extremely delicious. Before salt was added, Yong drank two gourds in one go.

Lu Er taught Baixu the planting method and seeds of soybeans first. As a thank you, Yong gave Lu Er the remaining cloud-spotted bird. Lu Er decided to invite these simple orcs to try it today. The fragrance of tofu soup.

There are too many people, even though Lu You stewed a big pot of soup, each person can only get a small gourd scoop.

Because of the convenient earthenware pot, it is very simple to boil hot water now. Under the stimulation of hot water, the feathers on the cloud-spotted bird can easily fade cleanly, and then it is served with pepper and star anise that are specially seasoned to remove fishy smell. , cumin, etc., and the white salt that eliminates the bitterness after refining, this Yunban bird tofu soup opened a new door for the taste buds of these orcs and sub-beasts.

The tender tofu and the stewed cloud bird meat are lying in the bright yellow clear soup, with a few slices of green onion floating on the surface of the soup.Just before they took it, they could already smell a strong aroma, which was more fragrant than any cloud-spotted bird they had eaten before.

Take a bite of the bird meat, the gravy is easily stained between the lips and teeth, with the aroma of oil and a hint of tenderness of tofu; take another bite of the clear soup, there is no trace of fishy or bitter taste in the soup, only salty, fragrant and fresh The perfect blend , bringing them supreme taste enjoyment.

Compared with this soup, the meat they ate before was not much better than boiled sand!

In fact, Lu Er felt that his cooking skills were only at an ordinary level, but the cooking skills of the orcs in this era were still in a very primitive state, so they were amazed by the food he made.

But seeing them holding a spoonful of soup like a treasure, drinking it cautiously and extremely satisfied, Lu Wei still felt a little satisfied in his heart.

It was too much to treat guests to a meal without being full. Lu Wei cooked a bunch of salted soybeans alone, and also prepared a lot of plump white root vegetables, trying to keep the orcs from going home hungry.

Lu You originally wanted to let the orcs realize the delicacy of soybeans through this meal, and promote their motivation to grow soybeans.Unexpectedly, although this goal was achieved, what became more popular among the orcs was that "the food made by Green Ear is very delicious", so that most of the orcs were proud to eat the food made by him, and occasionally some people If you are exposed to the light, you can show off proudly for a long time, and maybe you will be beaten.

Lu You didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't take it to heart - anyway, as long as he achieved his original goal, there are still many things waiting for him to do in the future of soybean promotion.

Xiaomi doesn't think so.

He was so angry that the hairs all over his body exploded because of the behavior of these orcs who came to take advantage of them openly and secretly.

—What are these bastards doing? !

——Secretly taking advantage of it while it’s not around? !

——Green ear is its sub-beast, and every piece of tofu and every drop of broth made by the green ear belongs to it!

Obviously she should be the owner of this tent, but Xiao Mi can only get a small bowl of cold tofu soup each time, feeling sad and pitiful.

Although Lu Er likes fat cats, which are the most comfortable to touch, but the health of the cats takes precedence over his own preferences.The two cats he raised in his previous life had consulted with veterinarians and formulated food strictly according to nutritional recipes, making sure that the cats themselves would not get sick from eating.

This is also the reason why Lu Er likes big oranges—animals like orange cats, the food is formulated according to the pet's nutritional food, and the rest can be resigned to fate and repeated day after day.

But Xiao Mi is not an orange cat, at least from Lu Wei's point of view, Xiao Mi is very cold, not clingy at all except when attacking with delicious food, lively and active, full of curiosity, and has no appearance of an orange cat at all.

So Lu You pays more attention to Xiaomi's diet, and tofu, which may cause Xiaomi's indigestion, is strictly controlled - he still remembers clearly the last time Xiaomi ate soybeans and had diarrhea for a long time!

So much so that every time Xiaomi wanted to eat more tofu, Lu Er would poke its bare butt: "Aren't you afraid of diarrhea? Still eat!"

Then Xiao Mi will shrink back in aggrieved and shame, trying repeatedly.

……

To make tofu, in addition to each household's own clay pots and pots, salt brine and strainer are also needed.

Lu You taught how to make bittern, and told him not to add too much bittern. He also used his identity as a "witch doctor" for the first time, emphasizing that bittern is harmful to the body and should not be eaten too much.

At present, the filter can only be made by the old Asian beast Duoyu, and Lu You specifically asked Duoyu if he could do the job.

Duoyu is very happy that he can still shine for the tribe. When Lu Er visited and explained the situation, he smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face deepened: "It's okay, it's okay."

He couldn't cope with the needs of so many orcs by himself, so he specially found two hard-working sub-beasts to teach them.

After Lu Er passed on the method of making tofu, the orcs also harvested the first batch of soybeans.

For the crops cultivated by spiritual water, the growth rate of the first generation of seeds is always very fast. If the spiritual water is not watered later, the growth rate of the selected seeds will gradually slow down; Eventually it will return to normal rhythm.

On the contrary, Lu You was somewhat relieved—he still didn't understand the principle of the spirit water ring, and it would be best if crops, an important resource for basic survival, could not rely on spirit water.

Moreover, if the growth rate is too fast and the cultivation cycle is too short, the fertility of the land will be greatly lost, and additional fertilization will not be able to save it.

After the soybeans were harvested, the orcs, who were obsessed with tofu, began to try some tofu, and specially asked Lu Er for advice.

After teaching several orcs how to make tofu, Lu Er found that the one who learned the fastest was the original "step-mother" Hong Yun.

The father of the original body, Teng, is getting better and better these days. According to Hong Yun, he may wake up in the next few days, so Hong Yun wants to learn the tofu recipe developed by Lu Er before Teng wakes up, so that he can make it for Teng to eat.

Lu You asked about Teng's condition when he entered the door, and was very happy to learn that Teng was about to wake up.

There was a faint joy on Hong Yun's face, and before he was about to order some tofu, he said casually: "Lu Er, the potions you sent these days are always a lot less, maybe Mang drank it secretly, he will be fine, right?" ?”

Mang is the child of Hongyun and Teng, a little orc in the shape of a bear.

"It's okay, just be careful not to let him drink too much."

Lu Wei's previous impression of Hong Yun was that he was shallow-sounded, had no opinions, and was always easily influenced by others. He never expected to be very talented in cooking, and he succeeded at the first time. The tofu he ordered was firm and delicious.

Hong Yun seemed to be very surprised that he could cook tofu for the first time. He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled uneasily under Lu Er's gaze: "Lu Er, do you think there is a problem with this?"

Lu Wei inspected the steaming white tofu carefully, and nodded: "No problem, you can eat it directly - you can also make soup with other foods."

In fact, tofu is also very delicious when fried together with green vegetables, shredded pork, eggs, etc., but at present, the production of soybeans in the tribe is very small, and there is still a long way to go before oil extraction; the efficiency of oil extraction from fat meat is also very low, because The fat ratio of wild animals in this era is very low, especially after a winter, and the fat on the prey has not yet returned.

This gave Lu Er, who hadn't eaten fried or fried food for a long time, a new idea: Agriculture has always been called together with animal husbandry, and modern subjects are also studied together with agriculture.

Although Lu You's research direction in his previous life had nothing to do with animal husbandry, he knew some basic knowledge.

—Maybe you can consider instructing these orcs to domesticate some domestic animals?

After switching from hunting to animal husbandry, the orcs no longer have to risk their lives to go hunting, and there will be less and less bone fractures due to hunting like before Yong.

These thoughts hovered in Lu Er's head for a while, and then regretfully withdrew his heart: the development of animal husbandry must be based on the development of agriculture, and now he has not even found millet, and even if he starts to domesticate wild animals, there is nothing to feed...

Because the first tofu order was successful, Hongyun was very happy, and deliberately asked Lu Er to stay and eat with him. Lu Er was concerned that there was still a cat at home to feed, so she politely refused.

This time, before he came to Teng's house to instruct Hongyun to order tofu, Xiao Mi was sleeping in the animal skin bed, so he came over by himself without waking her up.

Hong Yun also wanted to give Lu Er a piece of food as a reward for teaching him how to order tofu, but Lu Er directly refused - since he lives as a "green ear", then Teng and Hong Yun are considered the elders of his family, and the skill of making tofu Nor is it worth cherishing.

What's more, Teng has been in a coma for so long. Although the tribe has distributed prey to Hongyun, and Hongyun himself goes out to collect it every day, it is still not rich compared to other families with orcs.

Back in the tent, Lu You saw Xiao Mi was still sleeping in the bed, stepped forward to give it a light kiss, and turned to prepare for today's dinner.

Today, when I was in Teng, I thought of the problem of oil extraction, which aroused Lu Er's longing for fried food, and decided to try it out.

Pick a bit of fat from the wild boar that was exchanged from other orcs with soybeans and white root vegetables, cut into small pieces on a slate, heat a flat earthenware pan, put the meat on it for dry frying, and fry the oil in the fat Come out, then sprinkle with a handful of chopped green onion and fry until fragrant, then pour in the chopped tofu strips and celery and start frying.

The scent of animal oil is stronger than that of vegetable oil, and soon the whole tent is filled with a rich meaty scent, which directly wakes up Xiao Mi who secretly drank too much spiritual water and is slowly digesting.

Teng was about to wake up these few days, and it expected that there would be no reason to drink spiritual water so openly in the future, so it drank too much last night, and it almost slept all day today.

And when he woke up, he felt a little bad.

——Replenish too much spiritual water, and I feel like I'm about to turn back into an orc again...
