After slaughtering the pig, Meng Yuqing and Xuan officially started their ten-day vacation.
Their house was not located in a busy place, and the two of them did not want to be disturbed, so even people who were familiar with them did not come to see them.
The day Meng Yuqing fell asleep on Xuan's belly, she was woken up by the heat in the middle of the night.
He sat up and crawled on Xuan, and Xuan was also woken up by him.
To be precise, in order to maintain his posture, Xuan didn't fall asleep at all, he just closed his eyes to rest.
"What's wrong? Do you want to go back to your room to sleep? Is it too hot?" Xuan raised his head and looked at Meng Yuqing who was sitting on his belly and rubbing his eyes.
Meng Yuqing touched the sweat on his neck, nodded, and then got off Xuan's body.
Xuan also turned to a lying position. It was not very comfortable for him to lie still in the beast form.
The surrounding trees and plants were slightly cleared when the house and yard were built, but only the required areas were cleared.
In addition, Xuan himself likes places with lush trees, so the surroundings have always maintained a relatively primitive appearance, and the trees and vegetation around the house are quite lush.
Meng Yuqing sat on the ground for a while. The moonlight lengthened the shadows of the trees, and Xuan's figure was not clear in the shadows.
Looking at the inky night and Xuan, whose only green eyes could be seen at night, he gradually became more sober.
"I want to eat some ice cream." Meng Yuqing stared at Xuan's eyes, mainly because he could only see Xuan's eyes clearly.
"Do we do it now?" Xuan also looked up at the sky, "Do you want fruit?"
"Yes, I'll make shaved ice." Meng Yuqing took out the purified saltpeter from the space warehouse.
Xuan changed back into human form and pulled Meng Yuqing back to the house. He took out a lot of fruits from the cellar and squatted at the door to wash them.
Meng Yuqing also took out the ice-making tools.
I watched Meng Yuqing make the chain and teeth of saltpeter, and later I made them several times.
Many tribesmen had seen it at the market, and Meng Yuqing had already taught them all the tricks.
They also know which ice is edible and which is not.
So now there is someone in the tribe who is responsible for making ice every day.
But there is only so much saltpeter, and it is impossible to produce a large amount of ice at once to fill the ice cellar.
However, the temperature of the ice cellar itself is relatively low. If some ice is put inside, the temperature will be even lower. After the captured wild animals are processed and made into oil-can meat and stored in the cellar, a lot of it can be stored in just a few days.
The Qingshan tribe is not really short of food now.
Meng Yuqing naturally began to try to satisfy his appetite.
Xia let him keep the saltpeter he had purified at the market and also gave him some saltpeter.
After he purified all the saltpeter he was given, he was familiar with the process and had more saltpeter, so he made ice much faster this time.
After the water in the big basin and small bowl turned into ice, Xuan had been waiting for a while holding the fruit.
"Wait a minute, then let's change the way we eat it today." Meng Yuqing stopped Xuan from putting the berries into the bowl.
He peeled the berries as he spoke. "Get a few more bowls. We'll mash these fruits and make them into juice. And bring some more black honey berries. They might not be sweet enough when mixed with crushed ice later."
Xuan brought a few large bowls from the house and placed them on the ground.
The two peeled all the berries, cut them into small pieces and put them into a large bowl.
"Bring the pestle and crush everything." Meng Yuqing said subconsciously.
Xuan was stunned for a moment, then took out two pestles from home and said, "Are you sure you want to use this? We used it to pound blackthorn grass before."
Meng Yuqing took a pestle, looked at it, and said, "Use the other end. Tomorrow we'll make two separate ones. The new one will be used for eating."
The berries were quickly squeezed to extract juice by the two of them, and the mashed pulp was mixed with the juice.
The fruity aroma is stronger.
Xuan sniffed. As an orc, he was not very interested in berries, wild vegetables, and the vegetables that Meng Yuqing mentioned.
If it weren't for the need to stay healthy, he wouldn't really want to eat.
But after Meng Yuqing came and prepared these things using his method, he actually liked the taste of these things.
After finishing the berries, it’s time to prepare the ice in the bowl.
Meng Yuqing handed Xuan the bowl of edible ice, gave him a bamboo sword, patted Xuan's shoulder and said.
"Crush all this ice into that ocean bowl, go ahead! Pikachu!"
Xuan held the bowl in one hand and the bamboo knife in the other and began to scrape the ice resignedly.
It was right to give this job to Xuan. The hard ice was like tofu in his hands.
Swish, swish, swish——
The bowl of crushed ice was already half full.
But the bamboo sword is almost useless.
He quickly stopped Xuan, who was still filing ice, and said, "This bowl is almost done. File the rest into that bowl. Do you want a new knife?"
"No, this one is enough." Xuan took another empty bowl and started to scrape the ice again.
The sound of shaving ice is quite relaxing, and Meng Yuqing and Xuan are somewhat addicted to it.
Picking up a black honey fruit and letting Xuan open a hole, Meng Yuqing poured the black honey juice into the bowl of fruit pulp and juice, then took out a spoon and stirred it.
After stirring it evenly, he poured the berry juice into a large bowl filled with half a bowl of crushed ice and continued stirring.
After watching the crushed ice gradually being soaked in juice and evenly dyed with the color of the juice, Meng Yuqing stopped.
At this point, the berry shaved ice is almost done.
He scooped a large mouthful of shaved ice into his mouth.
An icy feeling instantly spread from his mouth to his whole body. He couldn't help but shudder, and then his eyes curved with smile.
Because it is homemade, the juice and pulp are freshly squeezed from fresh berries, and the quantity is sufficient.
Black honey fruit is added to increase the sweetness. In addition to the cool feeling in the mouth, it is also filled with fruity aroma.
The whole person is very satisfied.
"Xuan, it's ready. It's delicious. You should try it!" Meng Yuqing couldn't wait to scoop a large piece of shaved ice and hand it to Xuan's mouth while he was continuing to shave the ice.
Xuan didn't even look at it, he just opened his mouth and ate it.
Then Xuan Cuobing stopped moving, and his whole body shook like Meng Yuqing.
The irritability caused by the hot weather disappeared instantly.
He looked at the shaved ice in Meng Yuqing's hand in surprise and said, "It's delicious! It feels so good to eat."
After saying that, he opened his mouth again and let Meng Yuqing continue feeding him.
Meng Yuqing smiled proudly and scooped another spoonful into Xuan's mouth.
After Xuan finished his bite, he continued to scrape the ice with his head down.
Meng Yuqing sat next to him holding a bowl of shaved ice, feeding Xuan a bite every time she ate one.
By the time Xuan had shaved the second bowl of ice, Meng Yuqing had already eaten half of the shaved ice she was holding.
