Chapter 354: Stew on the Mountain
Tang Yue's mental power had been following Zhao Shengrui, watching him maneuver among the wild boars with ease. Each of his strikes hit the vital points directly, and the dagger was very sharp, so almost every strike could take the life of a wild boar.
Tang Yue, who was watching from the side, thought that he was so cool and handsome, worthy of being the one she fell in love with at first sight.
Zhao Shengrui didn't stop until he had dealt with the wild boar below. His body was covered in blood sprayed by the wild boar, and he looked really ferocious.
"Wife, wait a while before coming down and change your clothes, so that you don't feel uncomfortable with the fumes and we don't worry about attracting large animals."
"good."
Tang Yue used her mental power to scan the area. Apart from wild boars, there were no other large prey. But she would not tell anyone. She was covered in blood, and she would definitely feel more comfortable if she changed her clothes.
Since her husband was changing clothes, she ignored him and looked at the pile of wild boar carcasses on the ground. There were fifty or sixty of them, big and small. It was really too many.
After going down the hillside to the valley, Zhao Shengrui just changed his clothes and saw his wife coming down. "My wife just came here and she got so many preys. Are you guys going to go next?"
Tang Yue rolled her eyes at Brother Sheng Rui in annoyance, "There are so many of them now, why are you still staying here if you don't hurry up and bring them back? Be careful not to scare Mom and Dad if you bring back so many wild boars at once."
"Don't worry, wife. When the time comes, take a few less wild boars back with you. Take a few more every two days, and then take a few more every two days. You can pickle them all into bacon at home. You can kill the rest on this mountain and smoke them into jerky or something like that."
"That's fine, here's the seasoning packet for the hot pot. I'll make it taste better for you, and you can smoke the rest into jerky!"
Tang Yue couldn't bear to let Zhao Shengrui eat the dry meat jerky, so she had to make some delicious meat.
"The wife of the 놖 family is so nice."
The way Zhao Shengrui is flattering his wife now is no longer as handsome as before, he is just like a lackey.
He knew that his wife must be very concerned about him. Although Zhao Shengrui didn't say it, he was actually very proud in his heart.
"Okay, put the meat away quickly. Let's dissect them somewhere else and stew them properly. Fortunately, there are still buckets for meat there."
Zhao Shengrui looked at the place full of blood and thought it was not suitable to stay here for too long, nor to clean up the meat.
"Okay, let's walk forward for half an hour, find a place with water, and pick all these up."
After storing all the meat into the storage ring, Zhao Shengrui looked around, observing the place, wondering where the water source was more likely to be.
Seeing him like this, Tang Yue knew that he wanted to find water, so she pulled him directly towards the direction scanned by her mental power.
When he first mentioned that he was going to clean up the meat, he had already scanned it with his mental power. About ten minutes' walk ahead, there was a stream, and the water looked quite clean.
Zhao Shengrui didn't ask the reason and just followed him. He still trusted his wife very much.
Sure enough, after about ten minutes, he saw a stream. He came to the stream, released a wild boar from the storage ring, and cut open its belly with the dagger given by his wife.
Tang Yue watched Zhao Shengrui deal with the wild boar. She was not idle either. She first went to the side to pick up some firewood, then built a small stove with big stones, took an iron pot from the space and placed it on the stove, took water from the space and poured it in. She stopped after pouring a little more than half the pot, so as to avoid pouring too much, which would cause the meat to overflow.
As for the source of the water, if asked, she would just say that she had stored water in the past. On the contrary, she would never use water from the stream. Although it looked clean, who knew if it would contain bacteria?
I added two cups of spiritual water into the pot, which should make the food taste better.
Then he took some more matches to light the fire, and when it was burning more vigorously, he added a few more big sticks of firewood, and then he came to the stream, ready to help.
Although Tang Yue no longer had a dagger that was as useful as before, there were still some antique collectible weapons in her space, and they were quite sharp. She just picked out a weapon that she liked and used it.
"Brother Shengrui, bring another wild boar. It will take some time to stew the meat now. Try to kill a few more here so that we don't have to bring them home and make our parents, uncles and aunts busy. It's better for us to do it ourselves."
"Go ahead and kill them. Don't let them get you covered in blood. Once they're done, you can cut them up and divide them. They're pretty fast, so you don't have to get tired."
Seeing that he was like this, Tang Yue didn't force him. Seeing that the water in the pot was almost boiling, she threw a packet of seasoning in. When preparing the second pot, she would add another packet in so that the taste would not fade so quickly.
Cut the pig that Zhao Shengrui killed into pieces and put some pork belly in them, layer by layer. It will be delicious when stewed.
Then he took a few sacks from the warehouse, cleaned them in the creek, separated the bones and ribs, and put them all in the bags. As for the remaining pig head, he used a fire poker to burn all the hair off it.
Other lean meats were also packed in sacks, and the remaining pork belly was cut into strips and smoked into jerky.
It takes a little longer to smoke the meat into jerky. First cut them up, mix the seasonings and marinate them together. You will have time to prepare them when you get home.
The two of them were busy until almost time for lunch. The first pot was still stewing in the pot. They added a piece of meat and tasted it. They found it tasted very good. They quickly took a large wooden barrel from the space, poured the meat into it, and told Zhao Shengrui to put it in the storage ring.
Tang Yue poured more water and added the seasoning packet to stew the meat.
"Wife, why don't you put half of this meat in your ring? Leave a little of everything in your own ring."
"It's more convenient to cook meat at home since I have more time, but it's not so convenient for you to eat meat. I'll just take care of you for now."
Zhao Shengrui saw that his wife was not joking, and thought that there was still a lot of meat in his storage ring. At worst, he could bring his wife to the mountain a few more times and let her put away the stewed meat.
He didn't say anything more and just put it into the storage ring.
At lunch, the two of them just ate a little bit. They had stored food in the space before. Zhao Shengrui had already killed three pigs this morning. Tang Yue packed them all up and put them in a sack. She was going to take them home after the pot was done. If she still had the strength, she would take two more intact pigs back.
