Chapter 122 Compasses and Bean Sprouts



"You don't have to peel nuts for me. I don't like them." Youyou said vaguely to Nanxing who was peeling nuts while chewing on the fruit.

Nanxing gave Youyou a sidelong glance and said, "It's not for you."

Yoyo wasn't embarrassed, "Excuse me."

Nanxing had only peeled a few pistachios when she still felt uneasy, so she took the initiative to contact Jiang Yanyue using Cuiyunjue.

"Sister, where have you been?"

The little female's voice came from the other end, sounding a little far away. "I'm in heaven now. We'll be back soon."

Qinglan actually wanted to take this opportunity to take Jiang Yanyue out for a trip and enjoy their own world.

But there was a little kid visiting at home, and Jiang Yanyue also said that she wanted to go back and cook something, so she had to give up.

The smile on Nanxing's face became more sincere. "Okay, I'll wait for you at home."

Jiang Yanyue was carried back by Qinglan. Although the movements were almost the same as when Qinglan took Jiang Yanyue away from the cave, Nanxing still keenly noticed the difference.

Jiang Yanyue and Qinglan's relationship seemed less natural, with a hint of awkwardness and ambiguity.

Nanxing snorted in his heart. He knew that all males were bad.

But Nanxing didn't show anything. It is normal for males to pursue females.

Qinglan landed in the yard and smiled at Nanxing friendly. Nanxing's face darkened slightly, but Qinglan smiled even more brightly.

He turned around and said to Jiang Yanyue in a low voice, "Then I'll go make the compass you mentioned. You tell me how to do it."

"Sister, you should come to me if you want to do something!" Nanxing stepped forward immediately.

Jiang Yanyue coughed awkwardly, feeling as if she had been caught cheating.

Males in the animal world are proud to serve females. Whether females have partners or not, they never lack protectors.

Males who form pairs regard being ordered around by their partners as a privilege and a source of bragging rights, and will never ask other males for their services.

The fact that females actively drive unpaired males makes the meaning very clear.

"Nanxing, go soak the beans. Then find a piece of breathable cloth. It's best to use something similar to the gauze we use to steam rice. I want other orcs to be able to find it too."

Jiang Yanyue planned to teach the orcs how to grow bean sprouts. This should be easier than growing vegetables. All it takes is a piece of cloth and a ceramic pot, and it is easier to keep warm.

Jiang Yanyue herself has no preference for bean sprouts. She eats them occasionally and places an order directly in the mall. She has never thought about growing bean sprouts.

It was when she saw the two big bubbles in Yoyo's mouth that Jiang Yanyue remembered that if growing vegetables didn't work, she could still grow bean sprouts. If she couldn't even grow bean sprouts, Jiang Yanyue would have no choice but to sell vegetables under the banner of Yi Yuan.

Nanxing went to soak the beans and find suitable cloth. Ordinary furry animal skins would definitely not produce bean sprouts.

Jiang Yanyue brought Qinglan to the firewood storage workshop, where their family's hard-working military shovel was placed.

Qinglan was asked to choose two wooden sticks of similar length and thickness, sharpen one end, and tie the other end tightly with elastic animal tendons. Then a horizontal stick was fixed in the middle to form a triangle to increase stability. A simple compass was all that was needed.

After finishing it, the two of them went to the kitchen together, dipped some wood ash, and tried it on the ground. They could indeed draw a circle, but because it was made roughly, it was not very easy to use.

Qinglan took the compass apart and adjusted some details, such as flattening the two sticks a little.

The compass after fine-tuning is indeed much smoother to use.

"It's amazing. My hands don't shake at all when I draw a circle with this, and the arc is so perfect." Qinglan drew several circles on the ground in a row, and seemed to be amazed that he could draw perfect arcs so easily.

"The distance from the center of this circle to all arc points is the same. The figure composed of segments of the same length has the largest area."

Jiang Yanyue remembered some forgotten middle school knowledge and expressed her understanding of Qinglan's behavior of playing with a compass. Who hasn't played with a compass as a child?

After taking a look at the performance point mall, Jiang Yanyue found that the performance points were still [9]. She didn't care. It was originally created to facilitate life. Adding performance points would be icing on the cake. It didn't matter if she didn't have any.

"Wow, what is this thing? The circle it draws looks like it was created naturally!"

Cats are very curious, and so are cat-like beastmen. Nanxing was quickly attracted and made a compass by following the same pattern.

He was having a lot of fun making circles on the ground, circle after circle.

"I'll go look at my mother's house. She seems to have some cloth made of linen." Nanxing looked for several kinds of animal skins, but they were either too thick or didn't get wet. None of them met Jiang Yanyue's requirements, so she decided to go home and seek help from outside.

"Bring Gabe back. I haven't seen him in a long time."

Gabu is the little leopard from Nanxing's eldest brother's family. During the time Jiang Yanyue was away, he had been left at Fina's house.

However, the little leopard's food is still provided by Jiang Yanyue and the others. There is no such thing as relying on parents in the animal world. You have to take responsibility for the things you take on.

The little leopard Gabu had become fatter and as soon as he entered the door, he flew into Jiang Yanyue's arms like a meatball, and Jiang Yanyue staggered.

"Oh, Baobao, you've gained weight again!" Jiang Yanyue's hands were a little sore from holding the meat balls in her hands.

Little Gabe was chirping and seemed very excited.

"How can he not gain weight? How many good things has he eaten of yours?" Nanxing held a few empty milk powder cans in one hand and a few balls in the net bag in the other hand, including toy balls bought by Jiang Yanyue and some rattan balls made by grandpa.

"This is what your mother gave you. Drink it with water." Nanxing placed a jar in front of Jiang Yanyue.

"What is it?" Jiang Yanyue opened it curiously. Inside was half a jar of honey, but it was not yellow, but a beautiful rose red, emitting a faint rose fragrance.

"It's lark honey. This type of bee is different from other bees. The honey they make tastes like the flowers they collect. Judging from the color, this should be rose honey."

Qinglan was knowledgeable and recognized it at a glance, so there was no need for identification.

Nanxing finally found a kind of water-absorbent and breathable linen. Although it is relatively rough and thicker than gauze, it has larger gaps and should not affect germination.

Jiang Yanyue finally taught Youyou the method of growing bean sprouts and asked her to go back and try it.

Jiang Yanyue also bought some Chinese cabbage and broccoli seeds for Youyou. They all germinate, and the principles are similar, so they can be eaten after they germinate.

As the sun set, Yi Yuan and Liu Xia returned home in the last rays of light.

Looking at Yi Yuan standing in front of her safely, Jiang Yanyue couldn't help but walk forward and hug him. There was no need to say anything, a hug was enough.

Wu Chen had already hibernated in the cave that had been arranged in advance. There were five people sitting at the round table, and little Gabu was already eating voraciously under the table.

The round table is much higher than the square table, and it is very suitable for males to sit and eat.

Yi Yuan held Jiang Yanyue on his lap at the right height.

Jiang Yanyue smiled: "Are you polite?"

The table was occupied, but there was no stool for her.

Yi Yuan put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into Jiang Yanyue's bowl and said, "The height is just right."
