It is not easy to traverse the wilderness

Winter is actually a season of recuperation, which is true for the land that has dedicated all kinds of food for more than half a year, and it is also true for human beings.Especially when there is a warm kang head, holding hot sweet and sour fruit tea, listening to the cold wind whistling outside, the whole person feels warm and lazy.Song Lai was lazy today, after lunch at noon, he made a pot of fruit tea, snuggled up on the kang head and covered with animal skin quilt, and lay down comfortably all afternoon.I don't think about anything in my head, and I don't need him to coax the baby to be happy playing with Xiaoxiao by my side. I just fell asleep and woke up in a daze all afternoon.

The snow outside has stopped, but because of the strong wind, it is even more difficult for people to go out.The strong wind brought the snowflakes all over the sky and wanted to clear all the obstacles violently. Under the extremely low temperature, the snowflakes condensed into ice particles and were blown by the wind to the human body, which hurt like a knife cutting flesh, so nothing important these days Things, people stay behind closed doors.Anyway, when the house was built, the harsh winter climate was fully considered. Every house has a place to put food and firewood for the winter.

The temperature on the kang has risen slightly, it is estimated that An Ye is cooking dinner.Song Lai closed his eyes and fell asleep while thinking about it.When he woke up again, it was already late at night when he was hugged by An Ye.My stomach was a little empty, so I got up to find something to eat.Walking to the kitchen, he saw the food that An Ye had left for himself in the clay pot on the stove.It's just right to eat warm.

The fire in the stove is suppressed by leaves and pieces of wood, and a small hole is inserted in the middle as an air hole, so that the stove will always have a fire just by getting up and adding fire once a night.

An Ye's cooking skills come entirely from Song Lai. Although it is not as delicious as Song Lai's cooking, it is much better than most people in the tribe.Dinner was fried sea fish. Sea fish about [-] centimeters in length was fried until slightly yellow on both sides. When the skin was peeled off with chopsticks, the white meat inside was exposed. After marinating for a while, the cooking skills have improved again.

After eating all the fish and meat that An Ye left for him, Song Lai felt much more at ease.Recently, I can eat very much, and my body is also growing relatively. Although it is not as exaggerated as An Ye, the pants I often wear are obviously shorter. How can I be a grown man in the beginning of spring? Alright, Song Lai thought silently while brushing his teeth with a willow stick, packed himself up and climbed onto the bed to go to sleep.

Because he slept a lot in the afternoon, he didn't fall asleep after lying down for a long time. Seeing An Ye who was sleeping sweetly beside him, Song Lai had an urge to wake him up, but luckily his reason stopped him.Did you wake An Ye up, and then told him that you slept in the wrong position, so you got up and turned over to sleep again, or did you tell him that you woke him up because you were afraid he would wet the bed and tell him to pee? !Song Lai hugged An Ye's arm, looked at the roof and started counting sheep silently by himself.

One, two, three... I don't know if there are any sheep in this area, and if I can catch a few, I don't know if it will be easy to raise. I used to raise a rabbit and it was extremely difficult. These three calves are also very difficult. I don't know if I can feed it, but the little one doesn't really like eating hay.There is no such thing as rice noodles in ancient times, and sweet potatoes are too monotonous for the staple food. It would be great if we could find rice or something.Even if there is no rice or white flour, it is enough to get some corn to eat. I can’t do it if I am always at home. This can make me a female director, and I have to go out to see more plants. I can’t afford such a rich variety of plants I couldn't find anything that could replace rice, so I didn't believe it.

Well, when my bow and arrows are ready, I will go hunting with An Ye and the others. The last time the hunting started, I was disturbed by those bison. I don’t know if those bison will still pass by next year. It would be too much if they still pass by. It’s perfect. The cow is a good thing. It’s a treasure to be able to plow the land and eat meat. Speaking of plowing the land, the land behind my house can be planted in spring. I’ll go see how the seeds are doing tomorrow. I last year The pepper planted has grown into a small tree, and I don't know if it can survive this winter...

Song Lai was thinking wildly in his mind, and fell asleep without knowing it, and An Ye's arm, who was in his arms, subconsciously patted Song Lai lightly, everything was so harmonious.

It was near noon that Song Lai woke up leisurely, his stomach was growling non-stop, well, he was very greedy and sleepy recently, Song Lai attributed it all to his growing body.I went to the kitchen to find something to eat. After I was full, I thought that I had been lying in bed all day yesterday. I will find something to do for myself today. The winter is still so long. If I keep eating and sleeping like this, I will wait until next year. It's spring, I guess I won't be able to go out.

He vaguely remembered what he had thought about yesterday. He went to see his precious calf first. Because he was afraid that the calf would not like to eat hay, Song Lai even added some sweet potatoes to their hay. These cows like it very much and eat a lot every day.These calves were raised fat and strong.Looking at the spirit head to live through this winter, there is probably no problem.

I went to the warehouse to find some seeds I kept, some onion seeds, and some vegetables. Song Lai looked at the seeds and thought about how to get them when the spring came. He had never planted land before.After thinking about it, he went to An Ye. When Song Lai found him, he was arranging the animal skins by category. "Do we have bamboo in our house? I want to make a cultivation tank." An Ye didn't understand Song Lai's words. Meaning, frowning and watching Song Lai waiting for him to explain. "Just use bamboo to make a box, and then plant some onions and vegetables." Song Lai could tell from An Ye's expression if he understood, so he dragged him to find a twig to draw on the ground according to the old rules. show him.

In fact, what Song Lai needed was very simple. To put it bluntly, it was a box made of bamboo filled with soil and placed in the kitchen to grow some vegetables.An Ye rattled him a box that was one meter square and thirty centimeters deep, and even ran out fully dressed and dug a box full of soil for him at the back of the house. Cream on eyebrows.Song Lai hurriedly handed over the warm fruit tea, and yelled distressedly, "I didn't say I need soil now, why did I go out when it's so cold outside?"

"It's going to be colder in a few days, so we won't be able to dig out the soil." An Ye said this indifferently and took off his clothes.Song Lai put the box containing the soil on the side of the kitchen.Waiting for it to slowly melt the ice in the soil by itself.He casually picked up the giant rat skin on the washbasin shelf and walked up to An Ye, pulled his clothes and motioned him to put it on the stool, and then helped him to wipe his hair bit by bit, until it was almost done, it was made of bamboo Comb his hair with a wooden comb. When I think about it, it was a disaster when I combed An Ye's hair for the first time. The hair that hasn't been washed for many years is full of thick stains and I can't comb it. It doesn't smell, otherwise, why would I not have the impression of An Ye's stinky smell at all?

After washing with soap for four or five times, I used a wooden comb to smooth it out a little bit, and then washed it again. At that time, Song Lai realized that An Ye's hair was not black, but brown. Song Lai brushed An Ye's hair Comb it and divide it into three parts, braid it into a ponytail and put it behind you. The tribal men's hair is not too long, and it is usually braided to just reach the shoulders.Even if wooden combs are popularized, people with wives at home are caught washing their hair and braiding it, but no one can simply cut their hair short.Anyway, Song Lai had never seen An Ye cut his hair.

This is a very miraculous thing. Hair will grow long if it is not cut. Before Song Lai crossed over, he had seen a boring news about how many meters a woman’s braid was left, but the hair of people here is average. When it grows to a certain extent, it will stop growing, and it will look more like animal hair.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that in the previous world, only human hair kept growing. I have never heard of that animal's hair can grow continuously. Song Lai obviously felt that his hair grew very slowly after time travel. , but it is still growing after all. In order to be the same length as An Ye's hair, Song Lai has already cut his hair twice.After combing An Ye's hair, he patted An Ye's shoulder, which made An Ye stand up.

Because Song Lai was in better spirits today after sleeping all day yesterday, the preparation for dinner was more complicated. He chopped bacon, shrimp, and vegetables separately into fillings and seasoned them well. He cooked the sweet potatoes, then peeled them and pressed them into puree. Take out a little lotus root flour left at home and scald it with boiling water to make it transparent, then take advantage of the heat to knead the sweet potato and lotus root flour into a ball, squeeze it into small doses, roll it into a round piece, and wrap the stuffing into the ball separately Form a circle and put it on the pot to steam.

It can be steamed in about ten minutes, because lotus root starch and sweet potato are not as solid as flour, so the steamed dim sum is not round, and it is slightly like a small chess piece.Round and flat, but the ugly appearance does not affect the taste at all. The bacon is rich in aroma, the shrimps are salty and fresh, and the vegetables are light. Song Lai tastes good after eating a few of them.

After seeing the appetite of these people, Song Lai made a whole two large pots and filled them with six plates, but after Oss finished eating, he even asked if he had any. "Oss, you are already an old man, you have to take care of yourself, you can't overeat like this. How can you eat enough good things once? It's not a good thing to say, are you really Never seen the world."

Seeing that Song Lai was arranging himself again, Oss squinted at him, "You can't even handle everyone's meal by yourself. What's the use of saying so much? You said you wanted me to come home, and you provided for me. Ah, why do you think I eat too much now?" "Hey old man, you are being unreasonable, aren't you?" Song Lai felt that this old man Oss was a bit unscrupulous for ordering food. "It's useless to talk too much, anyway, I'm not full, and I still want to eat!" Oss put on a rogue look. "It's not that I won't give it to you. There is no lotus root starch, so I won't be able to make it in the future, but it is estimated that I can make it next year. The lotus flowers in the central lake will be picked next year."

Seeing that Song Lai couldn't do it anymore, Oss walked towards his room step by step with his belly outstretched, "This is really an old boy, this old man is not afraid of stretching himself to death, next time he won't let him Eating like this is too harmful to your health, do you think Oss is stupid, why do I feel that his IQ has dropped significantly after he arrived at our house." Song Lai cleaned up the dishes and boiled water on the side An Ye said.

"He's just greedy, and he'll be fine after a while. Rich and Oss don't know how to cook. The meat that Oss roasted for me when I was young was basically uncooked." An Ye said calmly on the side , but Song Lai was so shocked that he stopped his movements. You must know that An Ye's so-called barbecue is cooked on the outside and blood can still be seen on the inside. Roast it on the fire and eat it, "Poor child, it's not easy for you to survive." Song Lai patted An Ye's head.
