Chapter 110: You... want to eat piglets?
Because he didn't have much food left, it would be gone in two or three days. If he didn't find a way to get food, he would either freeze to death or starve to death.
Fasting is done in the depths of the forest, where there is plenty of firewood and probably plenty of prey as well.
However, many people are afraid of encountering jackals, tigers, leopards and other ferocious beasts, and dare not go hunting alone, so they can only make an appointment to go up the mountain in a group.
Compared to the petty fighting of this group of fugitives, hunting beasts for the Jinsha tribe is their comfort zone.
A whole morning passed before Ruan Mian, Cuizhu Meixi and the others picked some mushrooms. They were still thinking of finding an excuse to go to the space to get some meat dishes to whet their appetite.
As a result, they saw four or five men from the Jinsha tribe carrying a wild boar weighing about 200 pounds down the mountain.
Moreover, Ruan Mian discovered that the two people behind him were each holding two little piglets in their hands!
Everyone focused on how delicious the wild boar was and how skilled their tribe was at hunting. Only Ruan Mian approached Bai Lun and brought up the piglets. "Bai Lun, if I wanted to buy them from you, would that be possible?" Bai Lun was taken aback, clearly not expecting her to ask.
"You... want to eat piglets?"
Ruan Mian laughed and said quickly: "I'm not eating them. I want the pigs to give birth to pigs. If we raise them in a pen, we will have more little wild boars."
Hearing this, Bai Lun couldn't help but open his eyes wide. "You want to raise wild boars? This is not an easy thing to do. You know that wild boars are ferocious by nature and cannot be tamed by ordinary people. Even the piglets have animal instincts."
"Once their fangs are untied, it will be easy for them to injure people!"
They, the Jinsha tribe, raise fawns, rabbits, and minks, but I have never heard of anyone raising wild boars.
Ruan Mian said, "I can tame them."
Bai Lun still didn't believe it, but Ruan Mian was her savior. Since she wanted the wild boar, Bai Lun was happy to give it to her without paying any money.
You know, even the Jinsha people find it difficult to raise wild boars in captivity, let alone the Ruan family.
When Ruan Qingsong saw Mianmian holding a few little wild boars and saying that they wanted to keep them in captivity, his face turned pale with fear and he hurried to try to persuade them.
However, Ruan Mian put his hands on his hips and made a spinning gesture.
Unexpectedly, the four little piglets also followed her in circles, wagging their tails, jumping on the spot, and making grunting sounds.
Ruan Mian lowered his head again and called to them: "Be good, come and pet me."
Sure enough, the four little piglets seemed to understand what she said and rubbed their heads against hers.
This scene made Ruan Qingsong exclaim in disbelief. "Mianmian, how did you tame them? How could wild boars be so obedient?"
Ruan Mian smiled and said, "Don't worry about it now, brother. I have a way to tame them. They won't hurt us. Once they give birth to more piglets, we won't lack food."
As soon as he finished speaking, Rui Ge'er ran over quickly and picked up the little piglet: "Pigs are so cute, why does Auntie want to eat them!"
Ruan Mian laughed, and seeing that the child was difficult to coax, he had to give in.
"Auntie doesn't eat them. She wants to raise them. If Rui Ge'er likes them, can you let them play with you?"
Rui Ge'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hugged the piglet and gave it a smack.
Ruan Mian patted the piglet's head and said, "Then I'll ask you to play with my Rui Ge'er."
After saying this, the little piglet immediately ran away happily, as if he was playing hide-and-seek with Rui Ge.
It turned out that Ruan Mian took the piglets from Bai Lun and put them into the space.
Sure enough, like the little deer, they also became little spiritual animals that could understand human language.
Not only did he lose his ferocity, but he became very close to Ruan Mian.
After taming these little guys, the big one hunted by the Jinsha people was not so lucky.
Wu Jie was grateful to Ruan Mian for saving Bai Lun, so he gave them a whole hind leg of meat. They did not want to eat the lard and offal and planned to throw them away.
Liu and his men waited for an opportunity to act.
They couldn't get any food, so they could only pick up things that people didn't want.
But unexpectedly, Ruan Mian took a step ahead and wanted to bring all the pig offal and lard.
Wu Jie didn't understand: "Are you sure you want these things? We won't starve to death. Wild boars are omnivorous. These offal are fishy and difficult to handle, and they taste even worse when eaten."
"It doesn't matter. I have a way to turn waste into treasure."
Since that was the case, Wu Jie was of course willing to give it to her.
Liu and A Ruolan were furious when they saw that the duck that was about to be caught was snatched away by Ruan Mian.
A Ruolan kicked Liu out and ordered, "She has already taken our things, why don't you go and get them back?!"
Liu was a coward. How could she dare to offend Ruan Mian now? Moreover, they were in the wilderness and did not have soldiers to support them like Wu Heng did.
Here, the numbers of the Jinsha and Ruan people alone could crush her.
She wasn't that stupid, she just looked fierce and aggressive towards A Ruolan.
"Why don't you go by yourself? Do you want me to go?"
After saying that, he turned around and left without caring about anything.
A Ruolan was so angry that she followed him and threatened: "Aren't you afraid that I won't give your son the antidote and let him die in agony?!"
Liu has long recognized the reality that things are different now.
"If you really want to, you can just not give him the antidote and poison him to death!"
Liu is not a fool. If her son really died, would she, A Ruolan, still be able to live a good life?
Fantastic!!
Looking at her receding back, A Ruolan was so angry that she stomped her feet on the spot.
Today they could only eat wild fruits to fill their stomachs.
On the other hand, Ruan Mian took the pig offal back and cleaned it up properly.
A fire was already burning in the room at midnight, and as expected, it was very warm.
The whole family huddled in there, which was even more comfortable than the straw hut they had lived in before. It was also more ventilated than the cellar and had no strange smell.
Mei Xi, Ruan Qing and others had already laid out the animal skin blanket, with some loosened soil underneath.
Ruan Mian finished processing the pig offal, while Mei Xi had already set up the stove.
She first put the lard in and made a full pot of oil.
The delicious aroma of meat drifted through the valley, making Liu and the others drool.
After setting it aside to cool, I stir-fried the pig intestines.
She brought a lot of spices in her space, and they would smell fragrant wherever she put them.
In addition, pig's trotters are also rare. Chen is already very pregnant. Although she pays attention to nutrition, she eats relatively less oil and water than ordinary pregnant women.
Firstly, Ruan Mian didn't dare to give her too many supplements for no reason. Her belly was too big, and giving birth under such conditions would be a life-threatening situation.
Secondly, giving too much nutritional supplements may easily arouse suspicion from others.
That's why she had to provide her with nutrition in stages. Now that she had pig's trotters, she simply went to the space and got some peanuts.
It just so happens that the newly planted batch of peanuts in the space has had a good harvest.
Fresh and crispy peanuts are sweet and delicious, and stewed with pig's trotters is a must-try.
