Qiao Yu didn't explain much, just said: "You will know in a moment."

She used two branches as chopsticks, picked up the still hot potatoes one by one and put them into several large leaves that she had prepared in advance, and went to the cave in the south holding the leaves.

The women had to divide the meat, roast it, and finish all the housework before dark, so they had no time to follow her. Only a group of children followed her to watch the fun.

Qiao Yu didn't chase anyone away. He opened the leaves after entering the cave.

By this time, the temperature of the potato has dropped and is not as hot as before.

She picked the hairy potato with the largest head and gently broke it open. A puff of hot steam came out, revealing the white hairy potato flesh inside. Next to the white flesh was a circle of purple, which looked very beautiful.

The children cried out "Wow" in surprise.

Mang and several other people from the breeding group, as well as the few people who originally helped to build the fence, were still in the cave. They were all staring at Maoshu and watching Qiao Yu's actions curiously.

Qiao Yu peeled the sweet potato, cut it into small pieces with a branch, blew on it, and when it was no longer hot, he put the leaves to the goat's mouth.

Goats have a varied diet and large appetites, consuming a wide variety of grasses, shrub branches, straw, vegetable leaves, fruit peels, and vines. When they were caught, the two goats were foraging for food. After being led along for half a day, they were already starving.

Seeing what Qiao Yu handed over, they were not afraid. They lowered their heads to sniff, then opened their mouths and took a piece of potato into their mouths, eating it with a "grunt". From the looks of it, they seemed to be enjoying it.

The same thing happened to the other goat.

Qiao Yu placed the leaves where the two goats could reach them.

Everyone in the cave stared at the goat nervously, especially Mang, whose palms were clenched into fists, and he kept repeating in his mind, "It's not poisonous, it's not poisonous, it's not poisonous..."

These two goats were the first two animals raised by their breeding group. He wanted to raise them well and wait for them to reproduce. He didn't want them to be poisoned. He also didn't want the potato to be poisonous.

If it's not poisonous, the two goats can stay, and the tribe can have an extra food source. This is a great thing.

After the two goats finished eating the hairy potatoes in their mouths, they seemed to think they tasted good. They lowered their heads, took another bite, and put it in their mouths to chew.

"Ah, it's not poisonous." Someone whispered.

The goat immediately stopped chewing and looked at them warily.

The person who made the sound was pinched by others, but he didn't dare to cry out in pain. He stood there motionless, trying to reduce his presence.

The goat looked for a while and found that the group of people did not seem hostile, so it continued to chew the food in its mouth. After eating, it lowered its head and took another bite.

Qiao Yu divided the yam into six pieces and shared it between the two goats. They finished it in a short while.

After swallowing the potato in its mouth, the goat bleated as if asking for food.

Qiao Yu gave a bag of sweet potatoes to Mang and asked him to help peel them to feed the goats.

When the goat was reluctant to open its mouth after eating, obviously full, she asked, "Everyone, what do you think of the goat after eating the hairy potato?"

Everyone had been watching and replied, "Very good."

"It looks like it's not poisonous."

Qiao Yu nodded and said, "Some poisons don't take effect immediately. For the next period of time, we'll feed them yams. If they're fine after half a month, and the rabbits are fine after eating them, then it means the yams are edible."

She pointed at the remaining Mao Shu and said, "Cang's group should be able to catch some rabbits. Mang, you should also take out two rabbits to feed Mao Shu."

Mang asked, "Do we still feed the goats grass?"

"No. Because you can't guarantee that the grass is not poisonous. If the goats and rabbits have problems after eating it, how do you know what caused it?"

Mang nodded thoughtfully. "I see. These two goats and the selected rabbits will only be fed with yams for the next two weeks. Nothing else."

"You need to give him water, otherwise he will die of thirst." Qiao Yu said quickly.

Everyone laughed.

"Remember this," Qiao Yu said seriously, "The yams must be roasted thoroughly. If you don't know how to roast them, ask Xiaoquan. He helped you roast them tonight. Don't feed raw yams to goats and rabbits. Just like when we eat meat, we can't eat it raw; it has to be roasted."

She remembered that raw potatoes were poisonous.

Mang nodded solemnly: "Okay, I'll remember it."

He didn't ask why it had to be roasted. It was a tradition passed down from our ancestors to roast meat. And wasn't it the same principle that potatoes had to be roasted?

"Alright." Qiao Yu stood up. "Everyone, go home. Rabbits are timid. When Cang and the others come back from hunting rabbits, don't go and watch the fun."

She looked at Mang and said, "Guard the cave over there and don't let the children run in."

"Okay." Mang nodded.

Just as everyone was about to leave, they heard a commotion outside. Someone ran in and said to Qiao Yu, "Yu, Cang's team is back. They brought back three goats and six rabbits."

"Okay, everyone go out and let Cang bring the goat in." Qiao Yu ordered.

After settling the animals to be raised, knowing that Shan must be worried, Qiao Yu returned to his cave and told Shan about the situation.

Shan was more and more pleased to see Qiao Yu arrange the affairs of the tribe in an orderly manner, and he looked at his daughter with pride.

He was always busy with hunting and tribal affairs, and didn't pay enough attention to his two children. After his wife passed away, he paid some attention to his children, but his daughters grew up and were not very close to him as a father, so he didn't know her very well.

He really didn't expect that after he fell ill, his daughter not only took on the burden of the family, but also took over the entire tribe and did better than him.

Qiao Yu's decision to let the goats and rabbits eat yams exclusively for half a month was particularly thoughtful and cautious. Shan felt that he couldn't do as well as his daughter, let alone the people in the tribe.

He looked at his daughter with concern: "You've been hunting all day today. Are you tired? Take a rest quickly."
