Chapter 38
There were no pots, pans, or utensils in the new house, so Yu Sui put the pot of cooked rabbit blood clots aside and went home to move the pots and utensils several times.
You must also take the seasonings, especially the refined salt, as well as the sweet bean paste, bean paste and soy sauce that you have been craving for a long time.
After moving several times in a hurry, we finally prepared all the basic supplies.
We caught more than ten gray rabbits today. It was already late after we bled, skinned and cleaned the rabbits.
I originally wanted to catch a few pheasants, but I didn’t catch any. At the same time, I got a lot of unexpected gains.
In order to make it easier to get water, he dug a well in the yard so that he no longer had to run to the river for water.
Boil the remaining rabbit blood into blood clots. The weather has been cold recently, so it won’t go bad if you put it in the storage room overnight.
Smoke kept coming out of the chimney of the new house. Xiaochu, who had run out to play, looked in the direction of the smoke and ran back home.
Behind him was a group of little snow wolves, each one running towards him excitedly with its tail wagging like a propeller.
"Wow, Xiaochu, why is your house fenced off?"
Chubby Xiao Ding looked around curiously, stretched out his paws, pointed at the courtyard wall and asked.
"My brother said this is both safe and private!" Xiaochu puffed out his chest proudly.
"What is privacy?" Xiaohua asked sweetly in a childish voice.
"Yeah, that's it..." Xiaochu raised his little head, not knowing how to answer. He only remembered his brother saying so, but he certainly didn't know the specific meaning...
Yu Sui laughed out loud in the house. These little kids were so cute.
"What it means is that brother can secretly eat delicious food at home without you finding out." He poked his head out seriously to coax the cub.
The cubs looked at him as if he were a traitor, pouting angrily.
"But our noses are very sensitive, you can't fool us." Xiao Ding patted the ground with his fleshy paw pads.
"That's right, that's right!"
The other cubs echoed.
Yu Sui was laughing so hard in the room that he fell over, and he hurried to comfort the angry little ones.
"Okay, then brother will make you something delicious later, you just have fun by yourselves first."
The little cubs were running around in the yard, and some went to see the toilet. When they heard Xiaochu introduce that this was a house used for going to the toilet, they all expressed envy.
"This way you won't get a cold butt in the winter!" a male cub shouted loudly.
The other cubs nodded and looked at Xiaochu with envy. It was such a great thing that their little butts wouldn't be frozen in the winter.
Xiaochu was so flattered by their praise that he even took them to play in the cellar of his house.
The fourth-floor cellar is very spacious, and for the little snow wolf, the underground space is exciting. He ran around every floor and even played hide-and-seek.
Yu Sui took out some of the chopped rabbit feet and rabbit head to stew, and filled two pots with it, one spicy and the other with sauce.
I used to like eating these as snacks when I was reading novels. It would be even better if there were chicken feet and chicken wings. Now he has all kinds of seasonings, and they are very good as snacks after being braised.
The rabbit heads and rabbit feet were about the same size as the pig heads and pig trotters he had eaten before. Yu Sui chopped them up before cooking to make them more flavorful.
These two pots were definitely not enough to fill the stomachs of these cubs, so Yu Sui chopped up the remaining rabbit heads and paws, lit a fire in the yard, and put a large iron pot on the stove.
He ate in the cafeteria more often during this period, so his big iron pot and big iron shovel had been rested for a while, but they saw the light of day again today.
Put oil in the bottom of the pot, add sugar after heating, and simply stir-fry until the sugar color is brown.
Pour the chopped rabbit feet and rabbit head into the pot and stir-fry. The meat pieces covered with sugar will soon turn into a brownish color. Then add soy sauce and a little wine to remove the fishy smell, stir-fry for a few more times, pour in water, add spices and cook. After the soup is dry, the braised rabbit head and rabbit feet are ready.
The best wine to remove the fishy smell is rice wine, but he doesn’t know how to brew it, so he uses berry wine instead.
The little cubs came out of the cellar smelling the fragrance, holding various fruits in their hands.
"It smells so good, Brother Yu Sui, you are so awesome!" Xiaohua looked at him admiringly and praised him.
"Yes, yes, I think Brother Yu Sui is more powerful than Brother Qi, the most powerful one in our tribe!" Xiao Ding praised in agreement.
"Whoever can cook delicious food is the best among you guys. You are really a bunch of little gluttons."
Yu Sui was almost amused by the cubs' generous praise.
"Alright, alright, since your little mouths are so sweet, eat them!"
The cubs were small, so Yu Sui did not put them on the table so that they would not be unable to reach the food while sitting on the chairs.
There was a clean wooden board on the ground. Yu Sui put a few bowls of rabbit heads and rabbit paws on the board for them to share.
The aroma of meat filled the air, and the fragrance was different from before and more prominent. After all, this was his first time cooking with bean paste and soy sauce.
The smell spread throughout the tribe, especially to the snow werewolves with their sensitive noses, who could smell it from a long distance away.
Smelling this fragrance, the food cooked in the cafeteria in Xujue's bowl no longer smelled good, and he couldn't help but sigh sadly.
"Actually, we didn't say anything. Why don't we go to Xiaoyu's house..." Notting asked hesitantly, holding a large piece of fried shrimp in his mouth.
Vanilla glanced at him and said, "Go ahead if you're thick-skinned enough."
Seeing that there was no hope, Notting couldn't help but look at Qi who was eating in silence. Seeing that he had no reaction, he buried his head in disappointment and continued to eat.
"I heard that Xiao Yu moved today. Let's see if he has finished moving. If not, we can help him move everything over." Xu had an idea and said with a wicked smile.
"Yes, we are moving for Xiao Yu Sui. He has so many big pottery jars, we definitely can't move them all!" Notting said incoherently with his mouth full.
They looked at Vanilla at the same time, and seeing that she didn't say anything meant she agreed, so they looked at Qi again.
The tips of his ears flushed slightly, and Qi shook his head, "I won't go, you guys go."
Were they really wrong? Did Qi simply no longer dislike Yu Sui and was taking care of Yu Sui for his mother's sake?
All three of them saw doubt in each other's eyes.
But Notting didn't care about that. He couldn't wait to taste it after smelling the fragrance.
Although Yu Sui always made a small amount each time, he was already satisfied as he could taste the food. Just like the springy and smooth rice wrappers and rice noodles last time, after Xu brought them over, they each took a few bites and ate them all.
When he thinks back on it now, he still has an endless aftertaste for it, but the taste was so delicious that they all forgot to leave some for Ashan. Ashan, who was so angry, chased them around the tribe for several laps after finishing his work.
Ashan couldn't beat the others, so the treacherous one just chased after him.
This time I went to Xiaoyu's house to eat secretly, and Ashan didn't know about it. I can't beat him again.
They quickly finished their meal and ran into Yu Sui's old house.
Sure enough, many of the pottery jars that Yu Sui used to make wine were still there, so everyone carried a few of them and moved them to Yu Sui's new home.
Yu Sui and the cubs were sitting on the ground gnawing on rabbit paws and heads. The rabbit meat was very rich in flavor from the braised soybean paste and spicy chili peppers. The flavor of the sauce seeped into every piece of meat. The overbearing aroma filled the mouth with a bite.
The braised rabbit head and rabbit paw are fat but not greasy, melt in your mouth, and the bright red and trembling pieces of meat are very eye-catching, especially the tendons on the rabbit paw, which are braised to a red and transparent color, and are fragrant and glutinous when you bite them.
The berry wine and sorghum wine at home have fermented to the point where they can be drunk. Yu Sui opened the door to the cellar and asked a few people to help him move them into the cellar. He left a large jar of berry wine, and all he made today were snacks to go with the wine.
Since they said they were here to help Yu Sui move, they couldn't just move a few things for show. After running back and forth a few times, they put all the wine jars in the cellar for Yu Sui.
Now they sat down with peace of mind and shared the delicious food with the cubs.
Whether it is the spicy or sauce-flavored braised rabbit heads and feet, or the braised ones, they are all enough to amaze them.
These were just right for after-meal snacks. With a bite of rabbit meat and a sip of wine, they breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that their shameless trip was worth it.
Xiaohua and the other cubs stared at the berry wine they were drinking with curiosity, and could hardly contain themselves as they smelled the fragrant fruit aroma.
"Sister, please give me a sip too!" She lay down at Vanilla's feet and acted coquettishly.
Yu Sui was about to stop him when he heard Xiao Chu say solemnly, "This smells good, but it makes you feel dizzy after drinking it, and you'll still have a headache the next day."
The cubs were frightened and did not come forward to ask for food. They just watched them drink.
Yu Sui rubbed Xiao Chu's head with a mixture of guilt and amusement, then stood up and made some juice for the cubs. This one had honey in it, and it smelled even better than berry wine.
Sure enough, the cubs' attention was instantly diverted. After tasting the sweet and fragrant juice, they no longer coveted the berry wine.
In order to prevent them from getting drunk in his house again, Yu Sui strictly controlled their alcohol consumption. If he saw someone's face turn red, he would confiscate the wine in front of him.
Under the regretful gazes of several people, Yu Sui moved the remaining wine away.
"I'm going to hold a family dinner tomorrow, Sister Vanilla, please come over when you have time!" Yu Sui invited warmly.
"Homewarming Dinner?" Vanilla repeated doubtfully. It was the first time he heard such a term.
Yu Sui smiled and explained, "It's to celebrate my move to a new house. I didn't catch any pheasants today, so I'll go catch some tomorrow and make braised chicken wings and drumsticks. They're both delicious."
Today they tasted the braised rabbit feet made by Yu Sui, and they also showed great interest in the braised chicken wings he mentioned.
"Do you still need to catch them? I'll catch a few for you on the way!" Notting patted his chest eagerly and promised when he heard that there would be delicious food.
"Then we will come over tomorrow too!" Xiao Ding and the other cubs said hurriedly.
"Okay, everyone come over tomorrow and we'll have a lively party." Yu Sui looked at everyone with a smile.
Vanilla picked up Xiaohua and left with the other cubs one after another.
Xu walked at the back, and after the others had gone far away, she leaned over and whispered in his ear, "I'll bring Qi to you tomorrow."
As she spoke, she patted his shoulder, gave him a wicked smile with a look that seemed to see through everything, and strolled away with her hands behind her head.
Yu Sui chased after him with a red face and stuffed the thank-you gift he had prepared for Aunt Aqing into his hands.
"Thanks to Auntie Qing for her help today, I prepared this for her. Brother Xu, please bring your uncle and auntie over tomorrow."
Xu carried the large pottery bowl wrapped in cloth, smelled the fragrant aroma inside, smiled gently and touched his hair, "Okay, but my mother has a strange temper, so don't be angry if she doesn't come."
Yu Sui also saw this today. He quickly shook his head and said, "It's okay. Just take my thoughts with you."
After saying goodbye to Xu, he realized belatedly that he had not rejected him. Perhaps he had been introduced to other people so often that he had gotten used to it.
However, according to Qi's personality, he would probably avoid suspicion when he suddenly knew that everyone in the tribe viewed their relationship in this way.
The first night in the new home was spent on the warm kang. He and Xiaochu rolled around on the kang, hugging each other. The hair on their bodies became static and stood up, like two little hedgehogs.
Xiaochu curiously stretched out his paw to touch Yu Sui's fur, and was shocked. He retracted his paw and laughed.
The fur on the kang was very long and snow-white, and when Yu Sui lay down a little, he blended in with it.
He hid and played hide-and-seek with Xiaochu, but the kang was so big that Xiaochu often had to look for a long time.
When it was his turn to hide, Xiaochu also wanted to imitate Yu Sui, but unfortunately his golden fur was too conspicuous and he could easily find someone on the snow-white fur.
Finally, Xiaochu was so angry that his face turned red. Yu Sui was satisfied and held Xiaochu in his arms, nestling in the soft fur and falling asleep.
How can there be no good wine at the warm family dinner? Today he is going to distill white wine and will definitely get everyone drunk.
When Yu Sui woke up early in the morning, he felt a surge of anger in his stomach and started to have bad thoughts.
Yu Sui got drunk a few times, and with malicious intent he wanted to see others embarrassed themselves.
The distiller that he had previously asked the dwarf to make was customized according to the size of a large iron pot. He poured the brewed sorghum wine into the pot and added water.
He had watched many videos and read many articles about making homemade wine before, but this was the first time he made it himself.
In the past, when I went home after work and had a drink, I was always worried that the wine was mixed. Now, if I want to drink some wine, I have to brew it myself, which is pure natural and pollution-free.
Apart from being a little troublesome, it's actually quite good. I have tried all the things that I couldn't concentrate on before. How can this not be a new experience in my life?
Sometimes he misses the convenience and speed of modern electrical appliances, but the reality is not as he once imagined that he could not live a good life without the Internet and mobile phones. He is now busy every day and lives a very fulfilling life and does not feel bored.
Well, he admitted that he still missed his phone sometimes, after all, there were still some stories he hadn't finished reading...
After looking up for a while and missing the folder that he would never see again, Yu Sui lit the pile of firewood under the pot.
It was his first time distilling liquor, and he felt inexplicably excited. After lighting the fire, he quickly dragged an empty can to the liquor outlet.
As the temperature gradually rises, the aroma of the wine spreads.
Tick, finally the first drop of transparent wine fell into the jar.
Next, the wine drops dripped into the jar like beads with broken strings, and finally connected into a line, with the wine outlet continuously pouring out wine like a faucet.
At this moment, Yu Sui also understood why there is a saying that good wine needs no bush. Just standing in front of it and smelling the aroma, he felt like he was floating in the air.
If he drove now, he would definitely be considered drunk driving, Yu Sui thought dazedly.
