Cohabitation In The Wilderness: My Partner Steals My Protein

Chapter 51 Stir-Fried Pine Nuts and Hazelnuts, Meat Lamp

Bai Piao moved the low wooden pier table to the middle of the kang, where they normally eat.

And only put it back in the corner when not in use.

Then, he brought Yang Mi's set of wooden bowls and chopsticks over.

He smiled and said to her: "Be hungry, eat quickly, it won't taste good after a while!"

He didn't eat a few pieces of the pheasant stewed mushrooms just now, and the pot is still full now.

There is also a thick layer of stewed chicken fat floating on it.

Although it looks like there is no heat at the moment, the meat and soup inside are definitely still very hot.

At this time, Yang Mi did not accept the bowl and chopsticks that Bai Piao handed over.

Instead, she played coquettishly with her glutinous little milk voice.

"Well, hello my husband!"

After Jiao Didi finished speaking, she opened her rosy mouth and looked at Bai Piao expectantly.

"I'm used to it!"

Bai Piao's words were very rude.

But his happy smile, as well as the movement of his hands to pinch Yang Mi's meat, all show that he is actually quite useful in his heart.

"Honey, you are so kind!"

As Yang Mi said, she kissed Bai Piao with a 'baji'.

"Tsk, you eat well, and you're still chewing meat. Why are you kissing with such a fat mouth?"

"hey-hey……"

After happily eating this rare meal, both of them were somewhat satisfied.

Especially Yang Mi, who has a round belly.

Not to mention hiccups, when I just opened my mouth to speak, my mouth was filled with a strong smell of chicken soup.

In fact, Bai Piao eats more, but he has a bigger stomach and faster digestion, so it doesn't show much.

This made Yang Mi envious again!

...

Spread out on the kang and lie down for a while.

Bai Piao and Yang Mi got up and cleaned up the iron pot and wooden bowl first.

Then he took a few handfuls of hazelnuts and pine nuts and placed them on the low wooden table.

The two began to patiently select and sort.

Pick out the bad ones and throw them aside, the pine nuts on one side, and the hazelnuts on the other side.

It has to be said that few of the pine nuts and hazelnuts that the squirrels have preserved are bad, and they are all very big.

Yang Mi also expressed her doubts at this time:

"Bai Bai, where do you think the squirrel got these pine nuts? We looked at so many pine cones before but couldn't find any."

"Why is it so powerful? Not only have we found so many, but they are all so big and plump."

The size of the grains can be seen directly, and the fullness is that they all bite and taste a few.

It's just that the somewhat green taste of raw pine nuts is not so easy for the two of them to accept.

As for why Yang Mi didn't call her 'Husband' anymore, it was because she found that this title was especially useful for Bai Piao's coquettishness during the meal just now.

So it was regarded by her as a 'big killer', which of course can't be called casually at ordinary times, and it has to be used at critical times!

Regarding this, although Bai Piao showed regret on his face, he didn't have to ask Yang Mi to keep calling him that.

In the end, just follow her happiness and call it whatever you want.

Left and right are just a title!

"I don't know either. Maybe it was found on a pine tree elsewhere."

Bai Piao couldn't answer Yang Mi's question because he was also very confused.

Might have to wait a full month for someone else to join them to help find the answer.

After all, in the earth world, there are still duniangs to check, if you want to know something, just search it on the Internet.

It's also really convenient!

He was picking hazelnuts at this time, so he also asked Yang Mi.

"Mimi, have you ever seen this hazelnut tree? I don't know what it looks like."

"I don't know either. I'm the same as you. I know that the ones with needles are pine trees, and the ones with flat leaves are cypresses. I don't know about the others."

Yang Mi said helplessly, and Bai Piao also sighed deeply:

"Oh, if only we had a botanist now!"

"Yes, the mushrooms we saw before can be picked, and the stewed pheasant with wild mushrooms is really delicious."

"Now if we meet these mushrooms in the squirrel's treasure house again, we can pick them up and keep them. It's a pity that we caught this pheasant today. I'll go see if I can catch another pheasant tomorrow."

"Well, then I will follow this time!"

"it is good!"

The most basic human need is to eat. Sure enough, the two of them returned to this topic while chatting.

...

Soon, the two picked out three large wooden bowls of hazelnuts and two large wooden bowls of hazelnuts.

There is nothing to do at night. They have made more than a dozen of these wooden bowls in their spare time.

This is much simpler than making a wooden barrel.

Or first find a piece of wood of the right size, and then cut it into the shape of a bowl with a short knife.

Pick out a piece of red-hot charcoal from the earthen stove, put it on top and burn it out of the bowl, and then find a stone to polish it carefully.

This wooden bowl is ready!

...

The two of them brought the big bowls of hazelnuts and pine nuts to the earthen stove.

Bai Piao has never fried these, but he used to fry melon seeds in his hometown in the countryside every year during Chinese New Year.

He thought, this shouldn't be too much.

First pour out the water in the pot, and then take out some firewood from the clay stove and turn it to a low fire.

Boil the pot dry first, then pour in two large bowls of pine nuts.

Then, Bai Piao kept stirring with a wooden shovel.

After a little effort, steam came out of it.

Continue to stir fry, and another five or six minutes have passed.

The pine nuts became shiny, and the fragrance came out.

At this time, Bai Piao thought to himself, it should be familiar by looking like this, right?

He was not afraid of being scalded, so he picked a pine nut exuding a fragrance from the pot, put it in his mouth, bit it open and tasted it.

Well, it is very fragrant!

The heat is just right!

Bai Piao quickly filled out all the pine nuts.

Next, he cooked the three big bowls of hazelnuts in the same way.

It was only because the hazelnuts were bigger that he had to fry them for more than ten minutes before the fragrance came out.

...

The hazelnuts and pine nuts were all fried, and Bai Piao and Yang Mi happily returned to the low wooden table with the five large wooden bowls.

At this time, it was already dark, and a clay lamp was lit on the table.

Or should it be called a meat lamp? !

That is, Bai Piao squeezed a thick clay bowl out of mud and dried it with fire.

Then I added a little meat oil in it, and cut a strip of cloth from the T-shirt with a short knife as a wick.

This earthen meat oil clay lamp is ready.

It is just that the mud lamp produced in this way is more oily, because some oil will seep into the dried soil and be wasted.

However, who made both of them have limited skills, this kind of waste is unavoidable for the time being.

Fortunately, they didn't use the clay lamps often, and they mostly relied on the small fire in the stone shelf outside the earthen stove for light.

Of course it's not Bai Piao, they don't want to make some pottery and porcelain.

They have also tried many times in the past few days. They squeezed a few plates and bowls with mud and burned them in an earthen stove.

As a result, it either burned and cracked, or it was still like mud after burning, and it shattered as soon as it was pinched.

This pottery is not as easy to burn as imagined!

In addition, it is very troublesome to pinch these things with soil in the early stage, which is far less troublesome than those wooden plates and bowls.

So Bai Piao and Yang Mi themselves gave up!

However, they still hope that a person who knows how to make pottery can join here after one month.

Among other things, the pottery bowl for the oil lamp must be made.

And that big water tank, if you say anything, you have to burn a few more.

In that way, it will be more convenient for them to store water in the future!

If they were made big enough, they would even have the luxury of taking a hot bath!
