Have a good night's sleep.
When Meng Yuqing opened his eyes again, all he saw was darkness.
Is it still dark?
He turned over and lay on his back, only then realizing that what he had just seen was Xuan's fur. He stretched out his hand to block the sun.
After a long while, Ren finally woke up completely, sat up and looked at Xuan.
I saw Xuan lying there motionless, looking a little doubtful about his life.
Meng Yuqing smiled, walked over to him and squatted down.
"Are you still drunk?" As he said that, he reached out and scratched Xuan's chin.
Xuan subconsciously narrowed his eyes and made a snoring sound.
After a long while, Xuan finally came back to his senses and looked aside. He moved his ears awkwardly and whispered, "I don't know what happened yesterday."
Meng Yuqing supported her chin and looked at him, laughing in her heart, it turns out he remembered everything.
"It's normal to be drunk. Just drink a few more times and you'll be fine."
"Yuqing, will you be like this too?" Xuan lowered his head and looked at Meng Yuqing.
"Haha, at least drinking fruit wine won't be like this, you... can't." Meng Yuqing stood up and walked into the house.
When Xuan saw him leave, he immediately turned into a human form and followed him.
After the two of them had cleaned up, Meng Yuqing prepared to continue pickling the meat.
This is something that cannot be delayed.
Soon after I went out, I saw an orc running towards me in a hurry.
Meng Yuqing was stunned. Looking at the situation, did something happen again?
The orc's face was filled with joy. As soon as he saw Meng Yuqing and Xuan, he shouted, "Wu, Xuan, it's time to harvest the radishes and some of the potatoes. There are plenty!"
The two people looked at each other after hearing the news.
"Going to pick vegetables?" Meng Yuqing asked.
"I'll take you there." Xuan turned into an orc and lay down.
Meng Yuqing climbed onto his back skillfully and said, "Come on, come on, I'll take you to pick radishes."
The two of them ran all the way to the planting area. Xia and Qiuye had already arrived and were digging potatoes in the field. The orcs who were usually responsible for guarding the field also went to the field to dig potatoes.
Seeing the two people coming, Qiu Ye immediately waved and said, "Come here quickly, the potatoes in my area can be dug."
Without further ado, the two of them joined the potato-digging army.
All the potatoes that were harvested earlier have been planted, and this area is covered with potato leaves as far as the eye can see.
Some are ready to be collected, while others may take a few days longer.
After digging up and bagging the potatoes in Qiuye's area, Meng Yuqing clapped his hands and said, "Qiuye, I'll go check on the radishes."
"Okay, you guys go ahead, Xia and I will take care of it here." Qiu Ye waved his hand and walked to another place to start digging potatoes. Xia followed closely behind him.
Meng Yuqing took Xuan and walked towards the place where radishes were planted.
Over there, Rong Lin and dozens of people were working hard to pull out radishes, and they didn't notice Meng Yuqing and Xuan coming over at all.
He pulled and retreated at the same time, and with the last effort he almost fell over.
"Be careful." Meng Yuqing stepped forward and supported Rong Lin. "It's hard to pull it out. Make a small shovel and dig it out."
The people here are more practical. Since Meng Yuqing had been talking about pulling out radishes, they really did it.
Ronglin sat on the ground holding a radish longer than his arm, looking a little dazed.
"Yuqing, look, this radish is so big! There are so many radishes like this one, they're all here!" He stood up excitedly and pointed at the area where the radishes were planted, his eyes red. "Add potatoes and sweet potatoes, and everyone will have enough to eat this winter!"
The winter of the year when the shadow beast attacked the tribe happened to be the last few months of his pregnancy. There was still a little orc in his belly, and he ate a lot.
He and the cub in his belly almost died together because of lack of food.
In the end, Luo and others saved some food to feed him, so he survived and the little orc was born safely.
Others can eat less, but pregnant sub-beasts, especially those pregnant with orc cubs, cannot.
Therefore, he has an obsession with ensuring that everyone has enough food to eat in winter.
It would have been fine if he didn't know the solution before, but now that he knows the solution, he dreams every day about how to take good care of these vegetables, for fear that something might go wrong.
Meng Yuqing patted him on the back. "Well, everyone can eat their fill. By the way, Ronglin, just leave the radishes from that plot of land to me. I'll save them for seeds, and the rest can be stored in the warehouse for winter consumption."
He pointed to a piece of land not far away.
"Okay, I understand." After calming down, Ronglin devoted himself to the task of pulling radishes again.
The method of preserving radish seeds is a little different from others. Radishes actually have no seeds when they are harvested.
The best way to save seeds is to dig out the radishes, leave them for a few days, and then bury them upright in the soil. Then wait a few months for the radishes to enter the reproductive growth stage, and only then will they bloom and produce seeds.
"This piece of land is ours. Let's dig it out first." Meng Yuqing pulled Xuan to the designated radish field.
Xuan squatted down and started digging radishes without saying a word.
This time, the operation of digging radishes and potatoes lasted from morning to night. During the process, everyone just ate something casually and continued to work.
But no one complained. Every time they dug out a potato or a radish, they happily put it into the bag.
"I've never seen so many edible plants at once."
"I didn't expect that the potatoes we buried in the soil would actually grow out, and they grew much more than before."
"We've planted such a large field that once we've harvested it all we won't be short of plants to eat during the winter."
When it was almost dark and Xia announced that they would call it a day, many people were still reluctant to leave, looking at the crops that had not been dug out of the fields. They wished they could work all night and collect all that could be collected.
Unfortunately, Xia directly gave an order, asking all the sub-beasts to return to the tribe.
It was still too dangerous for them to stay in the patrol area at night.
Meng Yuqing lay on Xuan's back and didn't want to move at all. After digging radishes for a whole day, he felt like he was going to be exhausted.
Turning around, Meng Yuqing saw Qiu Ye sitting on Xia's back with an excited look on his face, not showing any sign of fatigue at all, and the other sub-beasts chatting loudly. He changed to a comfortable position. The people in this world are really too strong.
Before the radishes and potatoes were harvested, someone came to Meng Yuqing's house early in the morning to deliver the news.
The mountain stream tribe came to get cotton clothes.
Meng Yuqing was sitting on a rock beside them holding the little deer, while Che and five orcs were counting the number of cotton coats.
But Xuan sat on the ground opposite Meng Yuqing, looking at the little deer who was lying in Meng Yuqing's arms and acting coquettishly with a serious face.
