He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Xuan's eyes, shouting, "Xuan, come back to your senses. If you don't eat now, the food will get cold."
Xuan blinked, regained consciousness, and after finishing the remaining food, he propped up his face and looked at Meng Yuqing and said, "Just imagining that scene makes me feel very happy."
"Yes, let's grow rice." Meng Yuqing said with a smile.
"Okay." Xuan said.
After the two of them cleaned up the dishes together, Meng Yuqing asked Xuan to bring two large stone jars and directly exchanged them for two jars of rice, a total of 300 kilograms.
Based on the calculation that three to five kilograms are needed per acre, it is enough for them to grow more than enough!
However, after the change, Meng Yuqing suddenly thought, there are suddenly so many rice fields, who will plant them?
Ronglin and his team have just enough staff to take care of the existing plants. If they want to add more rice fields, they will have to send more staff.
Just as Meng Yuqing frowned in thought, Xuan came closer and hugged him from behind, saying, "It seems like our vacation is still the first day."
Meng Yuqing paused slightly while holding the rice. Oh, right, we agreed to take a vacation, but why are we busy again? I can't rest at all.
But looking at the rice in front of me, if I wait until after the vacation to do this, it might be too late.
Seeing the confusion in Meng Yuqing's eyes, Xuan laughed out loud, "Didn't you say this is similar to growing fleshy fruits? Just leave it to the father beast. It will be arranged quickly. Some of the people who built the wall have already been withdrawn."
"It's similar to growing fleshy fruits, but it takes one more step. You have to raise the seedlings first, then plant the rice seedlings."
Meng Yuqing used a ceramic pot to demonstrate how to raise seedlings. "It's a bit like the method I first proposed of using large vats to grow fleshy fruits, except that the previous method kept them in the vat the entire time. This time, after the seedlings grow, they have to be manually replanted in the field."
Xuan picked up a grain of rice and looked at it for a while, then said, "Are you going to plant all of these? When I was planting fleshy fruits, I thought I would plant more in the future, so I opened up a lot of extra land. After a little tidying up, we can use it."
Meng Yuqing looked at the 300 kilograms of rice, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's keep 50 kilograms for ourselves and plant the rest. I really want to eat rice."
"Then keep some for yourself. I'll take the rest to my father and let him make the arrangements." Xuan put his hands on Meng Yuqing's shoulders and pushed him into the house. "You stay in the room first. It's still a little cold. I'll be back soon."
Meng Yuqing returned to the room, picked up Xiao Huang, looked at Xuan and said, "Then come back soon. When you come back, we will go to the planting area to milk some cows. These cows have just given birth to a calf and can't drink all the milk. We will help them eat some."
Xuan, who was about to leave the room, stopped and asked, "Didn't you say that milk was for the newly born sub-beasts?"
"It's not a big deal. We can eat it too. Before I came here, I occasionally drank cow's milk. It would be a waste if we didn't help eat it. We can also eat goat's milk and horse's milk, and they can be used to make a lot of delicious dishes."
Meng Yuqing looked at Xuan, becoming more and more excited as he spoke. He urged Xuan, "Go find the clan leader and finish the rice business. I'll study how to use milk at home. We'll make something delicious when we come back from milking."
Xuan looked at his shining eyes and smiled, saying, "Okay, wait for me to come back."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Meng Yuqing released Xiao Huang back and thought about arranging the bulls, rams and stallions.
When Xuan was not around, he felt quite bored staying at home alone. After rolling around on the bed for a few times, Meng Yuqing felt that time was passing very slowly.
He looked up at the door from time to time, then buried his face in the pillow with a sigh.
When Xuan came back, it was completely dark. As soon as he came back, he threw Xiao Huang, who was still in the room, back into the yard. After Xiao Huang barked at him twice, he obediently went back to the cage.
Then he transformed into a beast and ran towards the breeding area with Meng Yuqing.
There were orcs taking turns guarding the breeding area at night, and they were a little surprised to see Xuan bringing Meng Yuqing over.
"Xuan, Wu, why are you here at this time?"
"Squeeze some milk from the Moo Beast." Meng Yuqing pointed to the cowshed while holding a bucket made by hollowing out a thick wooden stake.
"Oh, it's the white thing that looks like mushy fruit that their young animals eat, right?" said the orc on night watch. Then he seemed to remember something and his eyes couldn't stop glancing at Meng Yuqing's belly.
He remembered that what the witch told them at the beginning was that this milk was for the newly born sub-beasts to drink.
Feeling the other person's gaze, Meng Yuqing felt a little embarrassed. He moved his legs to cover his stomach and said, "Yes, we can eat this too. I thought that since these Moo Beast cubs can't finish it all, it doesn't matter if we eat some."
As if sensing Meng Yuqing's embarrassment, Xuan didn't wait for the other party to continue speaking and said directly, "Then let's go in and get the beast milk first."
"Oh, okay." The orc on night watch nodded, then returned to his original position and continued to lie down.
Xuan changed into human form and took Meng Yuqing into the cowshed. These cows were not replaced mainly for food, so among the five cows there were two dairy cows, two oxen and one buffalo.
Since they were here to milk the cows, they would definitely start with them. Meng Yuqing picked the one with the best temper among the cows and placed the bucket under the cow's belly.
The cow seemed a little uneasy, its hooves stamping in place. Xuan walked to it and put his hand on the cow's neck.
I don't know whether the cow was appeased or frightened, but it stood still and didn't move.
Seeing the cows calm down, Meng Yuqing also reached out and started milking.
Meng Yuqing, who had never done this job before, naturally didn't know the strength required to milk the cows. He was afraid of hurting the cows, so his movements were very gentle at the beginning.
Then he was surprised to find that nothing came out.
Xuan also saw the empty bucket and showed a puzzled expression.
"It's my first time, I'm not skilled, so I'll use more force," Meng Yuqing explained.
In order to prevent failure a second time, he no longer operated with one hand, but used both hands to increase the strength.
Then... because the force was too great, the cow was hurt. The cow cried out and moved its hind legs. Meng Yuqing subconsciously dodged to the side, fearing that the cow would kick him.
As a result, because of the dodging action, his hand twisted and the milk was squeezed out, but not in the bucket, but on Meng Yuqing's face.
mysterious:"……"
Meng Yuqing: “…”
Can it get better? He just wanted to drink some milk, it’s not that serious, it’s really not that serious!!!
Meng Yuqing quickly stood up and wiped the milk off her face with her clothes. She didn't dare to meet Xuan's eyes and immediately squatted down again.
He didn't believe it today and insisted on squeezing out the milk successfully.
