Chapter 258: Eating together does not violate the rules



The Qingque tribe's meal this time was different from previous times.

In the past, after the food was prepared, everyone had to wait and take the food in the order of Son of God, Witch, and Eldest Brother, and then eat.

But this time, he directly made five portions of the same food and placed them together in five circles.

Then everyone sat together, holding bowls and chopsticks in their hands, and ate together.

This way of eating was proposed by Han Cheng. When he first discussed it with Wu and the eldest senior brother yesterday, they both disagreed, thinking that eating in this way would affect the rules.

Of course, this is not what they said exactly, but that’s what they meant.

This made Han Cheng nod secretly. Regardless of whether they had come up with a specific concept about rules and etiquette, they had indeed realized the importance of rules. It just sounded a bit awkward.

When Han Cheng told them his idea and said that this would only happen during major festivals, and that they should follow the usual methods on other days, Wu and the eldest brother agreed. However, they were still a little unsure, especially Wu, who took these things more seriously than the eldest brother.

Wu's anxious heart didn't settle until Han Cheng had completely arranged the seating for everyone to eat.

"Have a meal!"

Han Cheng knew what everyone was thinking, so he didn't say anything nonsense like "this speech has three points in total, and each point is divided into several major points and several minor points." Instead, when he saw that everyone had already sat down according to the previously arranged seats, he directly announced that the meal was ready.

Even though it was novel to eat together, everyone was not slow at all in picking up their chopsticks. Following Han Cheng's order, the chopsticks that had been impatient for a long time instantly stretched out to the food placed in the middle, stretching towards the target that the host had already set his eyes on, and then returned with a full load.

In an instant, the amount of food there decreased by 10% at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Its speed is almost comparable to that of some people at banquets in later generations.

When Han Cheng saw this scene, he sniffed slightly. After all, he had overestimated these guys' resistance to delicious food.

But we have prepared enough food today, so we don’t have to worry about big eaters when opening a shop. Let’s see how long you can maintain this pace?

Han Cheng, who was slowly chewing a chicken wing, thought so as he watched the scene that was swept away by whirlwind.

"Son of God, eat."

The eldest brother felt bad when he saw Han Cheng was just eating a wing without any meat on it, so he picked up a piece of plump meat with chopsticks and put it into the bowl in front of Han Cheng.

In his opinion, this kind of food is the most delicious.

Little did he know that his action made Han Cheng's heart twitch slightly.

He has never had much enthusiasm for fat, either in the past or now.

"Wu, you eat."

Han Cheng smiled and nodded to his senior brother, then poured the steamed meat into Wu's bowl.

Wu’s teeth are not very good, so this kind of food is exactly what he likes.

In his heart, he was moved by the heartwarming action of the Son of God. He picked up the piece of delicious meat and put it into his mouth. He didn't need to bite it with his teeth. He just needed to suck it a little harder and it melted completely.

The witch squinted his eyes in enjoyment, feeling the unforgettable delicacy in his mouth, while sighing at the power of the Son of God.

It's not just about cooking the food, but also about the seating arrangements this time.

He originally thought that even if the Son of God had a feasible solution, it would not be able to solve the problem of the rules for everyone to eat together. But now, in the face of established facts, such an idea has long been thrown out of the window.

Wu deeply realized that even when eating together, the rules can still be followed.

For example, their circle is at the innermost part of the cave.

In primitive tribes, the more noble a person is, the further inside he lives, because the inside represents safety.

Those who ate with them were all prominent people in the tribe, such as Shang, Second Senior Brother, Sha Junior Brother, Heiwa, and Bo.

And within the same circle, there are also rules, for example, oneself, the Son of God and the leader are in the innermost position

Wu savored the delicious food he had never tasted before while thinking about these things. The more he thought about it, the more wonderful it seemed to him.

This method not only distinguishes the status of everyone, but also because everyone eats together, it can invisibly narrow the distance between people and make the tribe more united.

A balance was found between status, rules and intimacy, two somewhat contradictory things.

Of course, it was impossible for Wu to think so clearly. He just had some vague feelings in this regard and realized the benefits of doing so.

He wondered if he would eat in this new way from now on.

From initial disagreement to half-hearted belief and doubt to complete agreement now, after truly experiencing the benefits of this method, Wu's thinking has undergone a huge transformation.

There were not many people in the Qingque tribe who thought as deeply as he did. Most of the people were completely immersed in the delicious food with a wide variety of flavors.

They originally thought that the millet rice they had eaten before was delicious enough, but now that they had eaten the food freshly cooked by the Son of God, they realized how shallow their knowledge was.

The meal was over, but most of the people in the Qingque tribe were still rubbing their stomachs, savoring this dreamy meal that the Son of God called the New Year's Eve dinner.

They couldn't help but wonder why they didn't know how to celebrate the New Year before?

In fact, it is not very accurate to call this meal New Year’s Eve dinner, because the meal is not eaten in the evening, but in the afternoon.

Firstly, there was no electricity at night, so many things were inconvenient to do. Secondly, there was a more lively and important activity tonight that required scaring away the Nian beast!

After eating a sumptuous meal and taking a short rest, the men left the cave one after another and began to do the preparations they had already made to drive away the Nian beast.

Including preparing firewood and checking the drums.

Some women stayed inside the cave to clean up the mess.

The Qingque tribe, which never had any food left over, actually had a lot of food left over this time. It wasn't that the food was not delicious, but that there was too much food that could not be finished.

The tribe has always cherished food. A female primitive person would take a clean earthenware basin, pour the leftover delicious food into it, and put it away to be eaten next time.

Han Cheng was not idle either. He was busy marking out several isolation areas in the yard, especially the area where dried grass was piled and the deer shed. Fire was not allowed to get close to them. If these two places were set on fire, it would be a big trouble.
