After Chu Qi's patient comfort, Xiao Huang gradually calmed down in her arms.
After comforting Xiao Huang, Chu Qi continued to treat the fox's claws.
Trim the dirty hair on the claws, then rinse off the blood mud with clean water, expose the wound, and sprinkle an unknown white recovery powder on it.
The fox, who had been watching Chu Qi quietly, whimpered a few times because of this.
Chu Qi was slightly surprised, thinking to herself that this is what a fox's cry sounds like.
Then she became more gentle, and after sprinkling the medicine, she took a piece of clean gauze and wrapped it around the fox's front paws layer by layer.
She was extremely patient and the bandage was wrapped neatly and beautifully.
"Okay, don't bite and try to break free." Chu Qi said to the fox seriously, as if educating a child:
"If you try to break free, I won't apply medicine to you next time."
The fox snorted, resting its head on its other good paw.
The furry ears drooped down, turning into aggrieved airplane ears, and the pair of bright eyes also dimmed a lot.
While dealing with the fox, Chu Qi stretched out his claws to the little rabbit.
Of course, I couldn't kill all the two chickens and two ducks I bought, so I kept one of each to eat next time.
This way there might not be enough meat to eat.
The little rabbit fills the gap perfectly.
This was a fat rabbit weighing about five pounds, with thick and messy fur. One of its calves was caught in a hunter's trap. The bleeding had stopped at this time, but the rabbit was not in good condition and was dying.
After killing the chickens and ducks, Ye Youze picked up a knife and helped bleed the rabbit.
Its fur cannot be wasted. Although it is very messy now, we can peel it off, rub it clean and dry it, and make it into a small scarf in winter.
Rabbit can be cooked as a dish on its own.
Spicy rabbit head, spicy fried rabbit meat.
This was the first time for the Ye family to eat rabbit.
After Chu Qi described how to cook the rabbit, Ye Youze happily waved the spatula and started cooking.
Chu Qi went to prepare the hot pot soup.
Chu Qi threw bright red peppers into the pot. Huang Ying sniffed the faint scent of peppers in the air and frowned:
"Qingyun, can this really be delicious?"
Ye Zhang also said worriedly: "My dear grandson, are you sure this pepper is not poisonous? I heard that someone died of poisoning after eating peppers."
Hearing this, Chu Qi thought seriously for a moment: "The pepper may be poisonous to some people. I have to try it first."
The hotpot atmosphere is created when everyone gathers together to eat.
Chu Qi directed Zhuang Qiuyi and Ye Wenyin to pile up stones in the yard, and then the adults put the big pot on it.
Light a high fire and gradually heat up the rich and spicy soup in the large pot.
As time passed, the soup began to boil.
Chu Qi poured in the meat that had been cut earlier, in an amount enough for the whole family to eat, and added the vegetables later.
When the meat is almost cooked, add the vegetables.
The meat is ready to eat and the vegetables are cooked.
The round table from the kitchen was carried out by everyone and placed in the yard, next to the hot pot.
Chu Qi scooped out the cooked ingredients according to the portion with a serving chopstick, placed them in each bowl, and sprinkled them with the rich and fragrant soup. The deep red color made everyone in the Ye family stay away.
Chu Qi was the only one present who was not afraid of hot peppers. Under everyone's nervous and worried gaze, she was the first to pick up the bowl, picked up a piece of thin chicken, dipped it in the soup, and put it into her mouth.
In an instant, the fresh and spicy taste exploded in her mouth, combined with the unique taste of the ingredients. Chu Qi was so delicious that she wanted to swallow her tongue.
"You guys try it too." Chu Qi took another bite and invited them.
Seeing that Chu Qi was eating so happily, Ye Youze took a small bite with the idea of testing for poison.
After a while, the spicy taste spread in his mouth and he immediately took a big gulp of water.
“Is it, is it poisonous?” Huang Ying almost fainted and asked tremblingly.
"It's not poisonous and it tastes good! It just tastes weird, but it's delicious."
Ye Youze didn’t know how to describe it. His mouth felt numb, but it was really delicious.
As he spoke, he couldn't wait to take a bite of the lean meat, but felt it was not enough, so he picked up a piece of vegetable and ate it together.
Now, the taste is right.
"This is called spicy." Chu Qi said with a smile.
Chu Qi was not sure about other places, but this area of Zhang County indeed only had sour, sweet, bitter and salty tastes.
"So the poisoning feeling is spicy." Ye Youze muttered, then he held the bowl close to Zhuang Qiuling and gave her a piece of meat, "A Ling, you try it too."
Zhuang Qiuling sniffed the spicy smell in the air and opened her mouth to eat the food her husband fed her.
Instantly, the taste of the meat slices astounded her taste buds.
Seeing Chu Qi eating so happily, the other hesitant people also tried it.
Even Mr. Ye who was in the room asked everyone what they were eating and why they didn't bring him with them.
Ever since his beloved grandson passed the imperial examination and his eldest grandson had a child, Mr. Ye's mood has improved day by day since he held his great-grandson in his arms, and he has become much more cheerful.
Ye Youze and Chu Qi looked at each other, and in tacit understanding, they went into the house and carried their grandfather out, let him sit on a special big chair, and then brought him a bowl of meat.
Huang Ying tried the poison and found that it was really delicious and really spicy, but still within the tolerable range.
The spiciness is also related to the variety of pepper. The variety of pepper that Chu Qi bought is relatively mild in spiciness, not very spicy, and suitable for the stomachs of people who have never eaten peppers.
However, no matter how delicious the food is, you cannot eat too much. After eating two bowls, Chu Qi asked everyone to stop.
Wait for the stomach and intestines to adapt.
Eating too much at once may cause diarrhea.
Ye Youze was a little reluctant as he hadn't eaten enough, but he always listened to advice and put down his bowl and chopsticks.
In addition to hot pot, spicy rabbit head and spicy rabbit meat are also highlights, and everyone ate a lot.
Today, the Ye family has achieved the freedom to eat meat, and everyone is very satisfied with the meal.
After eating and drinking, Chu Qi took a rabbit leg left in the kitchen and gave it to the fox.
The fox was drowsy, and suddenly someone touched its ears.
Its furry ears trembled sensitively, and it slowly opened its black pupils. Its eyes were extremely beautiful and charming, and it stared at the person who came without blinking.
Chu Qi was worried that the fox would run away and she would not be able to change the medicine for it, so she did not open the cage. Now, while the fox was sleeping, she secretly opened the cage and stroked the fox's ears.
Even though she was discovered, she didn't panic. She closed the lid of the cage naturally. She held the rabbit leg and shook it in front of the fox, "Little fox, do you want to eat meat?"
The fox's eyes lit up, and the somewhat charming look in his pupils was instantly replaced by clarity.
It whimpered and scratched the cage with its two front paws.
Although the cage was small, it was more than enough to hold a fox with thick fur but a thin body.
Chu Qi was amused by the fox's cute reaction. She opened the cage again and placed the rabbit leg in front of it.
The freshly killed rabbit leg was still bleeding at the cut end, and the rabbit hair had not been removed.
The fox held the rabbit's leg and started to gnaw on it from the broken end.
Seeing that the fox was eating happily, Chu Qi did not disturb it. He returned to the yard and cleaned up the mess with everyone.
