Chapter 37
"By the way, where does Xiaochu live?" Notting never knew how to read facial expressions, so he raised his head and asked in confusion.
Xu was so helpless that he really wanted to sigh.
What kind of hypocrite would ask such a question? Yu Sui didn't know if there was something wrong with his ears or if there was water in Notting's brain.
"Such a big kang, can't it accommodate two of us?" Answering this question feels like it weakens my IQ.
Without bothering to continue glaring at Qifei, Xiangcao pointed at the kang in disbelief, "You, you, you live together?"
It was becoming increasingly baffling, and Yu Sui was filled with questions. "What else?"
I've never heard of orcs needing separate rooms when they're this young, not to mention they're both males. Snow werewolves don't care about running naked every day, but they actually care about this?
He clearly remembered that in the Black Rock Tribe, as long as the Snow Wolf people had not found a partner, they did not have to separate. The single people in front of him were still living with their families. He really couldn't understand why they found it so incredible that he and Xiaochu lived together.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in his head, like a flash of thunder in the dark sky.
Yu Sui's face turned red with shame and anger. He stood up angrily and pointed at the group of unreliable snow wolves and said, "What are you thinking every day? Brother Qi and I are innocent!"
As soon as the words fell, Xiangcao and Xu both showed expressions of doubt about life, but looking at Yu Sui's expression, they did not express their doubts out loud.
Notting moved his lips, but then held back. Disbelief was clearly written in his eyes.
"Oh, I'm so angry!" Yu Sui was so angry at their naked suspicion that he put his hands on his hips and looked up in despair.
After venting his anger, he turned his head and looked at Qi angrily, saying, "Brother Qi! Say something!"
Cracks appeared on Qi's angular face, and he finally understood why he had always felt something was wrong a while ago.
If they were at the training ground, he would definitely give them a good beating. Yu Sui Ke was still a cub, how could he live with him so early?
What's more, Xiaochu is here, and I don't know what these guys are thinking.
But at the same time, a secret joy came from the bottom of his heart.
At this moment, he heard Yu Sui's embarrassed and angry voice, and raised his head.
Yu Sui's cheeks, which were flushed red, were puffed up with anger, and her dark eyes were wide open as she stared at him, with a look of coquettishness in it that she herself was not aware of.
A long-lost heart palpitation came from his chest. Qi didn't know what was going on and avoided Yu Sui's sight.
"What are you thinking about all day? Is it because you haven't trained enough?" Qi said in a deep voice.
"No, no, no, I don't think so! I just..." Notting waved his hands frantically and quickly used his brain to find an excuse.
"By the way, I just think it's a pity to leave the house empty before the age of 11. That's right!" He said firmly with his chest puffed out.
Xu and Xiangcao exchanged a glance, then cleverly followed Notting's affirmative words, "Yes, we're just worried about wasting the house. It's one of the few mud houses in our tribe."
Yu Sui pointed at them angrily and sat down helplessly.
He was so angry that smoke was about to come out of his head. He talked about why those people were so excited when they heard that he was going to build a new house. He had never figured out the reason, but today he finally understood it.
No wonder these people look at him strangely every time they pass by his new house!
The dwarves' reactions were also different. He reasonably suspected that the rumor had already spread to the dwarves!
Everything made sense now, and Uncle Robert always said he was a cub, probably because of this.
Yu Sui wanted to bang his head on the ground and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into out of embarrassment.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the few people in Xuzhou all slipped away.
You really can't blame them for having the wrong idea. After all, Yu Sui pursued Qi so passionately before, and Qi changed his attitude towards Sui later, and even took care of her in every possible way. Didn't they think that the two of them finally fell in love?
It just so happened that Yu Sui wanted to build a new house at this time, and they naturally thought it was a new home for the two of them...
"Why don't I believe it? I saw Qi Beiyu a while ago!"
After running for a distance, Xu touched his chin and frowned, thinking deeply.
"Last time, Xiao Yu Sui said he liked the fruit I picked. Doesn't Qi go around to that forest to pick it every day? Why haven't I seen him be so nice to others?" Vanilla also complained.
"But this is good. Xiaoyu is still a cub, so it's too early for them to live together now."
After the conversation, they both looked at Notting.
Notting's hair stood on end as he was stared at. He quickly took two steps back and said distressedly, "I dare not tell you. If Qi hears, he'll increase my training intensity."
Qi, who was left alone in the room, looked at Yu Sui with a stiff expression.
"I've piled the coal in the yard for you. It's gotten cold these past two nights. You and Xiaochu can sleep here tonight. Burn more coal. If it's not enough, I'll go get more."
After he settled down, he stood up and was about to leave. In his hurry, he bumped into a chair and hurriedly fixed it. During this time, he did not meet Yu Sui's gaze and left in a hurry.
Without even opening the gate, Qi jumped over the wall like flying.
Yu Sui was speechless as he watched everyone running away.
It was all the original owner's fault that he was always misunderstood and even implicated Qi, who was taking care of him. In fact, he shouldn't have lost his temper with him just now. After all, he was also a victim.
Yu Sui was a little annoyed, and when he saw the pile of coal in the yard, he felt even more guilty.
He always called the black stones coal, and Qi also got used to calling these black stones coal.
Qi always pays attention to many details, so Yu Sui always feels relaxed when he is with him.
He began to reflect on whether he was too careless. If he had noticed the thoughts of his tribesmen earlier and corrected them in time, he would not have had so many troubles.
There's nothing we can do about it. He's been alone for almost 30 years. His sexual orientation is gay, but his brain nerves are as straight as they can be.
Matters of the heart are really too brain-damaging, and he's really not good at it. He only knew that they liked to match them up, but who knew that their thoughts were so... avant-garde.
Anyway, the misunderstanding has been cleared up, so he might as well do something he is good at.
The sweet noodle sauce has been gelatinized for more than a month, and the bean paste has also emitted a rich aroma of sauce, and they are both ready to be eaten.
If it hadn't rained for a few days, we could have arrived earlier.
The color of the soy sauce gradually darkened. He opened the lid yesterday and tasted a little with his finger. It was ready to be used for cooking.
He and Xiaochu first moved these condiments over, along with various pots, pans, and utensils, and then they could move in. The remaining dozens of jars of wine could be moved in slowly.
How about a warm family dinner? His eyes lit up. Now he could make braised dishes and let everyone try them. This was another great use for beans!
Touching his chin, he thought about what to braise. Chicken wings and chicken legs were his favorites, but unfortunately they were too small and the tribesmen wouldn't catch them. Other monster meats such as pigs, cattle and sheep were available in the tribe, so he could just pick them up in the cafeteria.
Pheasants reproduce quickly, and no orcs actively catch them. At most, dwarves will catch a few now. There are many of them at the edge of the forest near the tribe.
There is nothing dangerous at the edge of the forest, not to mention that many large monsters have already migrated.
To be on the safe side, he did not take Xiaochu with him and asked him to go find other cubs to play with.
The forest was covered with thick fallen leaves, which made a crunching sound when walked on. Yu Sui hid the animal skin under a big tree and changed back into animal form.
The little silver-white snow wolf stood with its pointed ears erect and looked around vigilantly.
In a bush, the grass swayed and shook.
His limbs instantly exerted force, his dark round pupils shrank into vertical lines, and he suddenly pounced towards the place where the sound came from.
The dense bushes bought the animals hiding inside a moment, and Yu Sui saw a gray figure running away in a flash.
Without time to think, he kicked his hind legs and shot out like an arrow, leaping to its neck. He swung his sharp claws hard at the neck, and bright red blood spurted out.
The gray rabbit's eyes lost their luster, and its body struggled twice by inertia before falling to the ground.
It was not a pheasant. Yu Sui raised his claws and rubbed them on the leaves to wipe the blood off his claws.
However, catching the gray rabbit was an unexpected surprise. Its meat was very tender and the cubs liked it very much. However, it was too cunning and difficult to catch.
Since there was one, its nest must be nearby. Yu Sui lay on the ground and sniffed the scent of the gray rabbit carefully with his nose while looking for the entrance to the hole.
They are really good at hiding. If Yu Sui hadn't been lucky enough to come across one, it would have been difficult to find their burrows.
The smell was strongest in the bushes where the gray rabbit appeared. Yu Sui followed the smell and found a cave covered by thick leaves.
Almost at the same time, the front was suddenly shrouded in gray light, and countless earth spikes attacked him.
He jumped up in a hurry to avoid them. He was too careless. He didn't expect that there were so many rabbits hiding in the cave. Although the dense earth thorns could not penetrate the skin of the snow werewolf, it was still very painful for the cubs. With so many of them, they couldn't bear a few more hits.
He was so anxious that he dodged back and forth on the earth spikes in the air, thinking that it would be better to run away first. However, there were too many earth spikes, like a magic spell cast by dozens of rabbits together, and he was accidentally knocked away by one of the earth spikes.
He spun 360 degrees in the air, fell down dizzy, and hit the tip of a thorn. Fortunately, his skin was thick and he was not injured, but he felt a dull pain.
He had just fallen down and had not had time to adjust his body when several thorns in the earth pierced other parts of his body. He could not help but close his eyes and thought to himself, let it pierce him, it won't kill him anyway.
The fur on his neck suddenly hurt and his body flew into the air.
Yu Sui opened his eyes in confusion and met a pair of eyes full of disgust.
"You are the only one among the Snow Wolf Clan who can be beaten like this by the Gray Rabbit."
The female in front of him looked him up and down with disgust. Even when the raised earth thorns pricked her body, she did not move at all.
"Auntie Qing." Yu Sui awkwardly retracted his paws and called out shamefully.
This was the first time he saw Xu's mother. Fortunately, the original owner had her appearance in his memory, otherwise he would not have recognized her.
Ah Qing held him and looked at the entrance of the gray rabbit's cave.
"Look, Xiaoyu Sui."
After saying that, she lifted her leg and stomped it down. Cracks in the spider web spread from beneath her feet, and the gray rabbits' burrows collapsed. A few of them escaped, while the others were stunned inside.
"Wow!" Yu Sui looked at Ah Qing with starry eyes and clapped his hands vigorously with his furry paws.
Ah Qing threw him to the ground and said, "When our Xu was your age, he was much stronger than you."
Who is not better than him? Yu Sui didn't feel hurt at all and shamelessly pulled Ah Qing's legs.
"Auntie Qing, please be kind and do your best. I can't handle so many gray rabbits. And once they wake up, they will cast magic again, and I won't be able to defeat them..."
"Gray Rabbit needs to rest for a long time after casting a spell before he can use it again. He doesn't even know this common sense." Ah Qing rolled his eyes at him in annoyance.
However, despite this, she still used vines to string the ashes into a string, pulled it behind her, picked up Yu Sui and was about to return to the tribe.
"Wait, wait, there's another rabbit I caught over there. I can take it myself."
He struggled to jump down and ran to where the animal skins were hidden. He changed back into human form, wrapped the skins around him, and happily held up the gray rabbit he had hunted.
Without saying anything more, Ah Qing just looked at him with more disgust, pulled the string of gray rabbits and sent him home.
Afraid that the gray rabbits would run away after waking up and he would not have time to catch them, Yu Sui hit them in the neck one by one and cruelly caught the blood in a basin.
This was the first time he had the opportunity to receive fresh animal blood so that he could make his favorite blood tofu.
There are many ways to make blood tofu, and the methods vary in different regions.
When I was a child, my family would slaughter the New Year pig. I would often see my grandmother cooking blood tofu in a large wood-fired pot. After it was done, the first piece would always be given to him, and it would not taste fishy if eaten directly.
After Ah Qing sent the rabbit to the yard, he left, and Yu Sui didn't have time to keep him.
He's such a unique person, and he and Brother Xu don't look like mother and son at all...
There are two iron pots on the stove in the new house, which are perfect for cooking rabbit blood. The kang is heated while cooking.
First use hay to start the fire, then add firewood after it is lit. The dwarf also installed a blower for it, which can be pulled by hand or magic cores can be added.
Yu Sui pulled the outer handle twice, and the fire inside burned even more vigorously.
Boil water in two iron pots, pour fresh rabbit blood into the water when it boils, then turn to low heat and cook slowly, allowing the rabbit blood to slowly coagulate inside. In my grandmother's words, this is to form a blood clot.
It takes patience to make this. The blood tofu cooked slowly over low heat will not have any holes and will be smoother and more tender, especially the blood tofu made by my grandmother. In the village of her hometown, her craftsmanship is unparalleled.
When my grandmother makes blood tofu, she also adds water soaked in peppercorns to it to better remove the fishy smell.
Before he turned 18, he often saw his grandmother do things by herself. This was the first time for him to do it. I have to say that his ability to accept things has become much stronger than before. Now he can slaughter a rabbit without changing his expression and collect the blood to cook blood tofu, which he would never have dared to think about before.
The iron pot at home is about the same size as the ones in the countryside in the past. After all, if the stove is really made to accommodate Yu Sui's super-large iron pot, the room will have to be expanded, which is really unnecessary.
His yard was big enough, so he could go outside when he needed it. The two iron pots were more than enough to feed him and Xiaochu with their current appetites, and the orcs' staple food, barbecue, needed to be grilled outdoors.
When the dwarves were making the iron pot, Yu Sui also asked them to make a few steaming baskets that were the same size as the iron pot. Previously, steamers were made according to the size of clay pots.
In the past, the steamer in his hometown could be placed directly into the pot. He considered that one layer might not be enough in the future, so he simply prepared a few more at the beginning.
