Under the big pine tree, the tiger father and tiger mother watched Su Hua for a long time without moving. After exchanging a glance, they stopped tearing at the pieces of meat in their mouths and picked through the wild animals lying haphazardly on the ground. Then, one of the tigers picked up a wild animal and walked towards Su Hua.

"Thump!"

Su Hua snapped out of her daze in the sea of ​​clouds, turned around, and saw two enormous creatures on the ground behind her.

One is brownish-yellow, and the other is dark gray.

The former has mostly brownish-yellow fur, a long dark black stripe down the center of its back, and snow-white plum blossom spots all over its abdomen. Its buttocks are perky, its tail is almost short, and it has a tree branch-like horn on each side of its head.

The latter looks somewhat similar to it, but it lacks the plum blossom spots on its abdomen and has much smaller diagonal ridges on its forehead.

Both of the large creatures had a deep scratch on their throats, with no other wounds, indicating that they were killed instantly.

Su Hua silently shifted her gaze from the sika deer and the yellow muntjac, turning instead to the two large white tigers beside her. Giving her two large, protected-level creatures in one go—wasn't that a bit too much?

However, she shook her head and dismissed the thought as soon as it crossed her mind. The Tiger family had been very shrewd in their dealings. When they sent the cattle, sheep, and pigs, they sent a son and a daughter to their house to eat, drink, and relieve themselves. Since then, they had not seen the two animals again. The sika deer and the yellow muntjac might not have been sent to her.

Sure enough, the little white dumpling, who had been whining and acting cute in Su Hua's arms, immediately brightened up with its azure eyes when it saw the sika deer and yellow muntjac on the ground. It even raised its little paws to tug at Su Hua's sleeve, pointing at the ground one moment and the basket on Yu Feng's back the next.

Even the big girl couldn't help but wag her tail.

Su Hua: "…………"

After spending time with them, she's come to understand their habits to a point where, while she can't tell whether they're urinating or defecating just by looking at their bottoms, she can at least guess fairly accurately.

At this moment, these two want to eat, and they want to eat cooked sika deer and yellow muntjac.

Seeing the two figures constantly looking behind him, Yu Feng, even with his seasoned experience, felt a stir in his heart. He couldn't help but reach out and tap the basket on his back. "Miss Su, it's almost noon. Why don't we eat something first before looking for Hong Xiao..."

"Okay." Su Hua nodded, helped him take down the basket, took out only the two rice balls prepared by Su Bai, and sent the rest to the two tigresses.

"Here you go, there's some cooked food inside. It's just bad timing that we came today, so please have this for now. If there's a chance, I'll cook hot pot for you next time!"

As she spoke, she continued to untangle the leaf bundles one by one.

This gluttonous habit always has a traceable origin. The fact that Da Niu and Da Bai are gluttonous suggests that the mother tiger and the father tiger are probably not too different. Of all the food, the two little tigers love the meat in the hot pot the most. The mother tiger and the father tiger should also like it. If Yu Feng hadn't been absent, she could have really cooked them a deer hot pot and a muntjac hot pot today. After all, she has all the pots and pans in her space.

However, both venison and muntjac meat are extremely tender, so it's not convenient to use them for hot pot right now, but you can grill them.

Without further ado, Su Hua lit a fire with a flint and steel while having Yu Feng help her skin the sika deer and muntjac, then put the hides in a basket on her back, waiting for Su Bai to make deer-skin boots and muntjac-skin boots after they went down the mountain.

As for the venison and muntjac meat, she took out a small knife from her sleeve and cut them into thin, large slices. The venison had almost no fat, so Su Hua could only skewer them on a tree branch with three red and one white pieces alternating.

The most important thing about barbecue is the ingredients, and the seasoning is secondary. She had previously planned to sell barbecue at Su's Restaurant, so she took some time out of her busy schedule to grind some of the simplest version of barbecue seasoning with Sichuan peppercorns and cumin. She put it in a small bamboo tube, and it wasn't very conspicuous when she took it out of her sleeve.

Once the meat slices started to ooze oil, sprinkle some salt and barbecue seasoning on them, and continue to turn them over the firewood. Considering that the tiger couldn't eat spicy food, Su Hua didn't add chili to the four pieces of meat she grilled, but she and Yu Feng sprinkled a layer of fine chili powder on theirs before they were cooked.

The mountain breeze carried the spicy and savory aroma of the barbecue far and wide.

On the stone ground, two large white tigers were feasting on the braised mutton and roasted lamb chops that Su Hua had given them. But when they smelled the rich aroma of meat in the air, the male tiger paused, then immediately used its paws to move the leaves aside. In a few quick movements, it approached Su Hua and squatted down next to Da Niu and Da Bai, its azure tiger eyes fixed on the roasted meat on the tree branch.

Even the aloof tigress paused in place for a moment before stepping over.

Su Hua looked at the four furry creatures in front of the fire, a smile revealing two dimples on her lips. She peeled a large handful of meat from a skewer onto a large leaf and offered it to the four of them. "Here, the meat is ready. You guys try some first..."

Then, he handed a large handful of the two bright red meat skewers to Yu Feng, saying, "Try this. If it's too spicy, I'll put less chili in later."

She is a typical person who can't live without spicy food. She also knows that Yu Feng loves spicy food from the previous meals at home. However, the chili peppers in this barbecue are grown in the space and are much spicier than the chili peppers outside. Most people can't stand this spiciness.

"Thank you, Miss Su. I'll grill it later." Yu Feng, unaware of the intricacies of the situation, blushed slightly on his usually cold and hard face. He had come along to take care of people, but now Su Hua was the one grilling food for him, which made him feel a little guilty.

Su Hua waved her hand and smiled, "This barbecue tastes better when you grill it yourself."

After saying that, he stuffed a string of bright red roasted venison into his mouth.

Almost as soon as the venison entered her mouth, a rich aroma burst on her tongue. The venison was roasted to a crispy exterior and tender interior. With just a light bite, she was filled with the fresh and savory flavor of the meat. Coupled with the fiery red chili flakes, Su Hua couldn't help but smile with delight. This extra-spicy venison was simply amazing.

In no time at all, he finished off a large skewer of roasted venison.

Next up was roasted muntjac meat. Compared to sika deer, muntjac is actually rarer. Having lived two lives, this was Su Hua's first time eating muntjac. The meat was not only tender, but also very juicy. With each bite, her lips and teeth were filled with the delicious flavor of the meat.

At that moment, she finally understood why these two things, in modern times, would be considered species that require at least ten years of experience using a sewing machine.

Once such delicious meat is served, who wouldn't start looking forward to the second meal after just one bite?
