"I'm going out to find something, don't follow me."

Hua Shi walked out of the back door after knocking it open. Before leaving, he turned around and spoke to the white fox and black cat who were looking at him eagerly, as if they were eager to follow him out.

"Meow……"

The black cat, who had been unable to sit still for a long time, just jumped to the ground and heard Hua Shi's words, and let out a weak cry.

Hua Shi wanted to set up the stove before dark so that he could start cooking comfortably, so he naturally had no time to waste.

When she ran to the backyard to cut bamboo several times before, she remembered that there were several places in the bamboo forest where scattered broken stones were piled up. She moved some of them back and simply built a small stove to use first.

After the winter, I will build a better one.

She ran back and forth three times, panting, and finally moved enough stones.

It took quite some time to pick and choose the right stones. The sky grew darker and the howling wind and snow showed no sign of stopping.

She squatted at the place where the back door was opened, quickly built a small stove, put the iron pot on it, and when she saw that it was just right, she stopped adjusting it.

After so much trouble, most of the time has passed quietly.

The white fox and black cat lying on the kang bed had already started to droop, probably because they were hungry...

There was no firewood or tinder to start a fire, so Hua Shi quietly ran out again, picked up a large bundle of firewood, and brought back the tinder from the kitchen.

Whether there was more or less firewood in the small kitchen, Li probably wouldn't notice.

After all, these firewoods were collected bit by bit by Hua Xiao and Hua Li, who went out every few days. The person who chopped the firewood was Hua Yu, not Li. She couldn't remember and probably didn't take it to heart. Anyway, she didn't have to worry about it if there was less.

"Squeak..."

Flames rose, and the sound of an oil pan exploding suddenly rang out in the dim and quiet house.

The white fox and black cat lying on the bed stood up suddenly and looked confusedly in the direction of the sound.

When she was young, she first refined some oil with lard. Since she had no jar to put it in, she used a clean and smooth bamboo tube to put it in.

A strong wild boar does not have much fat on its body, and the fat after being refined is only as much as half a bamboo tube.

She used the iron kitchen knife she had bought to cut a large piece of fat and lean pork belly into slices, stir-fried the meat in a pan to remove the water on it, and when the meat turned red, she put it back in the pan.

Pour all the washed rice and water into a clean pot, bring it to a boil over high heat, and when it starts to bubble, pour the stir-fried pork in and cook it together. Add some sliced ​​ginger to remove the fishy smell...

Time passed minute by minute, and a large pot of simple lean meat porridge was soon cooked.

She picked up the dishes and chopsticks that she had brought back earlier, scooped them up one by one, and put them into the bowls.

The soft and tender lean meat porridge emits a fragrant aroma...

Clean the pot again, put some water into the pot, and then put a large piece of pork with skin, meat and bones into the pot, and make some boiled meat with water.

This big piece of boiled meat is made for Xiao Hei and the other three. Due to limited conditions, we can’t make any other dishes. We can just make do with the simple boiled meat to fill their stomachs first.

“Gurgle gurgle…”

Cooking over high heat, the water mixed with large pieces of bones and meat quickly boiled. I turned the food over several times, and when it was almost cooked, I added salt and ginger slices.

The aroma of boiled pork coming out with the smoke is so delicious that it makes your mouth water...

Although it is the simplest method, who wouldn’t like the fragrant meat and bones?

The white fox and the black cat had already circled around her anxiously for several times.

It was obvious that they couldn't wait any longer. If it weren't for her deterrent effect, these two guys would not be afraid of the soup and would jump directly onto the half-low stove.

"Meow……"

Xiao Hei smelled the gurgling aroma of meat, tilted his head eagerly, and started scratching her shoes again anxiously.

"Don't worry, it will be fine soon."

Although Hua Shi said that she was not in a hurry, she had already started to pull out the firewood from under the stove, extinguished the fire, and stirred the soup at the bottom of the pot with a simple bamboo spoon.

She washed the bamboo strips she had collected from the yard, and fished out the steaming, hot piece of pork.

“Meow meow meow…”

The greedy black cat followed her every move, its dark blue eyes swiveling around.

Hua Shi didn't care that the meat was just out of the pot and was still emitting heat and was boiling hot. She used a kitchen knife to cut a few pieces of lean meat and put them one by one into the bowl of lean meat porridge that had already cooled down.

There are five bowls, and two large pieces of meat are cut into each bowl. The fragrant and glutinous porridge mixed with the fragrant meat is very appetizing just by looking at it.

After dividing the meat, Hua Shi chopped the large piece of pork bone into several pieces, placed them in bamboo strips, put them on the ground, and called the two white foxes and black cats who had been impatient for a long time to come over.

"Okay, you can eat now. It's still a little hot..."

Before she could finish her reminder, the white fox and the black cat had already buried their heads and started chewing on the food with a crunching sound.

That little bit of heat couldn't stop them from eating...

“Woof woof…”

The little white dog forgotten in the corner grunted and rolled out of the bamboo basket, making tiny barks, trying to attract Hua Shi's attention.

“Woof…”

The little white dog barked once more, then twice more, with timid eyes open, quietly observing Hua Shi's face. He wanted to go forward but stopped, repeatedly trying to test the waters.
