After eating the noodles and cleaning up, it was already nine o'clock. The two entered the space and did not sleep.

We didn't catch the bison, but now there are two muntjacs, a sika deer, a roe deer, a litter of wild boar cubs and eight pheasants in the space, all of which were caught today.

Muntjacs, roe deer and sika deer are all male, so Lu Ting did not plan to raise them all.

Muntjacs and roe deer must be killed and eaten. Male sika deer have antlers, and they plan to collect velvet antlers after a while and then kill them when there are no more sika deer.

Lu Ting planned to kill a muntjac tonight and another next week. Muntjacs belong to the deer family and are very timid. Each muntjac they caught weighed over 40 kilograms, and after killing it, the meat weighed over 20 kilograms.

The Shan Hai Jing records about muntjac as follows: "The horns of the divine elk can be made into swords, its skin can be made into robes, its bones can be made into bricks, and its tendons can be made into strings."

The whole body of the muntjac is a treasure, and every part of it, including meat, bones, horns, skin, and fur, can be used as medicine.

Meat is a nourishing food that has the effects of nourishing the kidneys, strengthening tendons and bones, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and dispelling wind. It is used to treat impotence, premature ejaculation, uterine cold and infertility, frequent urination, chills and cold limbs caused by insufficient kidney yang and essence and blood. It is also used for women to take cold showers, have weak pulses, and irregular menstruation.

The paste made from its bones also has the effects of dispelling wind and unblocking meridians, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and strengthening yang and kidneys. Muntjac tongue can treat convulsions...

Su Yan planned to put one-third of the deer bones into the electric pressure cooker tonight and cook them, and then make noodles for Lu Ting tomorrow morning.

"Yan Yan, there are more than 20 kilograms of meat here, you can eat it however you want."

"I'm going out tomorrow to bring some deer bones and meat to my dad and his family. We'll have hot pot when I come back. I won't send anything to your mom, so ask them to come over for dinner! Aunt Qin, come over. We haven't invited her to dinner yet. After all, she's your aunt's sister-in-law."

"Okay, you can go there by bike tomorrow morning. Xiaojin's bike is at home. Xiaoyu and the others won't be back to school until the afternoon, so we'll return the bikes to them in the afternoon."

Su Yan remembered that Lu Ting had said before that he would buy her a 26-type women's bicycle, but it seemed that he didn't buy it. She probably didn't have it for sale at the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Let's cook noodles in the space tomorrow morning. Deer antler soup is the best for cooking noodles. I put red dates, wolfberries, and astragalus in the soup."

"Yan Yan is not afraid that I will have no place to vent my excessive thirst."

"Go to hell, go take a shower."

"The suede hasn't been processed yet."

"You should get up early tomorrow and come back for tanning. It's getting late, so wash up and go to bed early."

It's almost ten o'clock and you're still not asleep. What else do you want to do? Lu Ting cleaned up, washed his hands, and dragged Su Yan to the bathroom, under the pretext of saving water.

Su Yan didn't know where the water in the space came from. She only knew that the space was magical, with its own water and electricity, and there was no shortage of water at all.

But if Lu Ting doesn't exercise once or twice a night, his whole body will itch like he has fleas and he can't sit still. Who told Su Yan to be his wife and have to "sacrifice her life" to accompany him?

The guy is so energetic. He goes to bed at 12 o'clock, but gets up at 5 o'clock in the morning to tan suede.

He asked the master to make Lu Yiming a suede leather jacket for winter. Anyway, there were two deer suede in the space, so it would be no problem to make not only one suede leather jacket for Lu Yiming, but even three.

Su Yan said that the remaining suede leather could be used to make boots for Lu Yiming. Lu Ting's grandfather was an old tailor and it was too easy for him to do these things. He could just send the suede leather and cotton cloth to Lihua Village. Lu Ting learned the technology of tanning animal skins from his grandfather.

Around seven o'clock, Su Yan got up to wash up. Lu Ting had already cooked the noodles. What's more, after drinking a few mouthfuls of the deer bone soup, her stomach felt warm.

"At noon, cook soup with deer bones and soft-shelled turtle. Slice the deer meat thinly and we'll have deer meat hotpot. Let Yiming drink some deer soup too. This way he won't wet the bed easily."

"Okay, I'll tell Dad to come over for lunch later when we get to work. Talk to Auntie later and ask her to notify Auntie Qin."

Lu Ting and Su Yan came out of the space, and Hua Jing also prepared breakfast, sweet potato porridge and two plates of pickles.

"Xiaoyan, Xiaoting is having breakfast."

"Aunt, I have something to do today. I'll just buy a bag when I pass by the cafeteria. Take your time and eat."

He had eaten such a big bowl of deer soup noodles in the space, how could he drink sweet potato porridge now?

Su Yan smiled and said, "Aunt, I'm not going to eat either. I'm going back to my parents' home and will buy some food. Please notify Aunt Qin and Lu Yu and ask them to come over for lunch."

Hua Jing was puzzled. "Whose birthday is today? I remember Xiaoting's birthday is Mid-Autumn Festival, and your birthday is in Ghost Month."

"It's not anyone's birthday. Aunt Qin has been here for so long, and Lu Ting and I haven't treated her to a meal yet. When you finish breakfast and take Yiming to your parents-in-law's house to play, please inform them."

"Okay, okay, I get it. Xiaoyan, Xiaoting is going to the cafeteria to buy breakfast. Where are you going to eat breakfast? Don't skip breakfast just to be slim. The family downstairs has two or three children suffering from stomach problems because they haven't eaten breakfast for a long time."

"Aunt, I'm going to eat noodles on the street. Don't worry about me. I'm leaving first."

The couple went out at the same time and went downstairs. Lu Ting helped Su Yan tie the big backpack to the back seat of the bicycle, and Su Yan lifted her legs and crossed over the horizontal bar of the bicycle.

"Be careful and ride slowly."

"Don't worry, it's not winter."

That year, she broke her arm while riding a bike because of the ice and snow on the ground. She is not an unlucky person who encounters misfortunes every year.

Su Yan is tall enough, so she won't twist or turn when riding a 28-inch bicycle, but she still likes women's bicycles because 28-inch bicycles are too heavy.

Thinking that her elder and second brothers might be at home on the weekend, Su Yan went upstairs and put the suede skin and bones directly into the backpack. When she knocked on the door, she found that her sister-in-law Wang Yan was also there.

"Yan Yan, you're here."

"Sister-in-law, why are you going back to the military hospital when your belly is so big?"

"Your brother and I will move back home so that we can go directly to the hospital when the baby is due."

"That's true."

Wang Yan's due date was close to the college entrance examination, so she started asking for leave last week. It was originally thought that she would stay in the courtyard to take care of the baby, but unexpectedly she moved back to the family quarters of the military hospital.

Su Yan took out the deer meat and bones. "This is deer meat and bones. I brought it here especially for you."

"I heard that deer meat is very nutritious. Can I eat it?"

"Sister-in-law, as long as you don't add any herbs, you can eat it without worry. I'm going to buy groceries and will come to see you another day."

Su Yan chatted with Wang Yan for a few minutes, then went to a nearby market. Seeing someone selling konjac, she bought a large piece of konjac and prepared to make a plate of spicy and sour konjac for lunch.

When I saw someone selling wild eels and loaches, I bought three pounds of eels and four pounds of loaches. I didn't buy chicken, duck, fish, or vegetables because I had space.

After buying vegetables, I went to the nearby supply and marketing cooperative and saved up some cloth coupons. I planned to buy some nice fabrics to make a few summer clothes for her little monkey.

Su Yan selected several pieces of fabric for Lu Yiming, and she took a fancy to a thin pink and white plaid cotton fabric. She thought, if only Lu Yiming was a girl, she could make a little skirt for him.

In the end, she gritted her teeth and bought the cloth. Just because she didn't have a daughter now didn't mean she wouldn't have one in the future.
