Chapter 49 Big Meat Patty
Then Wu Yuetang checked the entire cave inside and out. The space was very large, and there were even seven or eight independent small caves inside. After some renovation, they could be used as bedrooms. Although the area was not large, it was enough.
"Put these animal skin blankets away. We can go back and clean them up and use them again."
As they spoke, the two of them rolled up and tied up the blankets on the ground one by one. They looked around and found that there was nothing that needed to be sorted out. Wu Yuetang took out two Snickers bars from her sleeves, peeled one and handed it to Ye Jingchen.
"You must be tired. Eat one of these."
"What's this?"
Ye Jingchen looked at the black thing in front of him and was a little hesitant to take it.
"Energy bar, to replenish your energy."
Without waiting for him to refuse, Wu Yuetang directly stuffed the food into his mouth after removing the outer packaging.
Huh? Sweet and crunchy inside, very delicious.
Seeing that Ye Jingchen's expression also became enjoyable, Wu Yuetang curled up the corners of her mouth. It was very useful to capture this guy with food.
"I'll hold these blankets, you hold the cub."
Speaking of cubs, Wu Yuetang looked at the little lives in the haystack that did not survive and died, and felt sorry for them.
"Let's bury the dead cubs."
Ye Jingchen's eyes became deep as he looked at her. He had never thought that Wu Yuetang could have such compassion for animals. He nodded lightly and began to carry these breathless cubs out of the cave. He found a thicker tree trunk and started digging a hole.
Wu Yuetang held the little hyena in her arms and looked at the man working obediently in front of her. Somehow, she felt a sense of pride in her heart.
After finishing their work, the two did not return along the same route they came, but instead went down the mountain along the main road. The way back was not difficult to walk, and the two walked very leisurely.
The little hyena kept trying to burrow into Wu Yuetang's arms, howling.
"I know you're hungry. Just bear with it. I'll feed you when we get there, dear."
Wu Yuetang reached out and stroked its head, coaxing it, but Ye Jingchen's face turned black when he saw the puppy's actions.
Where is this dog going? Thinking about it, he reached out and picked up the puppy in his arms.
"I'll hold you for a while."
"Aren't you tired? You're carrying so many blankets."
"Not tired."
Since he said he is not tired anymore, then just assume that he is not tired. It is good to have some free time even if he has nothing in his hands.
It was past noon and the two of them did not cook together. Wu Yuetang spent fifty points to exchange for two spicy chicken burgers from the space, and each of them ate one and considered it lunch.
Wu Yuetang was very satisfied. This guy was a bit reserved, but everything else was good. He especially didn't ask questions, which was great because it saved her from having to come up with all sorts of excuses. It wasn't until sunset that the two of them saw the Dayao Village team. Seeing that a group of people had already set up camp, Wu Yuetang hurried over to find her parents.
"Mom, Dad, you've been walking all day, why haven't you reached the mountainside yet?"
"Well, the village chief saw that you guys didn't come back at noon, so he rested for more than an hour during lunch break."
Li replied, her eyes constantly glancing behind her.
"Girl, did you find anything on the mountain?"
"Well, there's a really big cave on the top of the mountain. It's warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It's really comfortable."
At this time, Ye Jingchen also came over and put the animal skin blanket on his shoulder on the ground.
"What is this?"
Wu Shoutian squatted on the ground and looked at the thick bundle of animal skins. He was so shocked.
"Everything in the cave is covered in dust. It must have been left behind by people who took refuge there before."
"Wow! Ye Jingchen! What's that in your arms? So cute!"
Wu Zhiyun spotted the puppy with his sharp eyes, threw away the firewood in his hand and ran over, with stars in his eyes.
Ye Jingchen handed the puppy over and let Wu Zhiyun hold it in his arms. No matter whether the puppy was a boy or a girl, once it was in his arms, it rubbed against his chest and kept trying to get inside.
"Hahahaha, it's so itchy! Little dog, stop licking it!"
Wu Zhiyun giggled when he was licked, and the others also had smiles on their faces. Although they were on the road to escape famine, it seemed that having an extra pet would not be bad.
After making a fuss for a while, everyone returned to the tent, built a pile of firewood, and prepared to cook.
Wu Yuetang had been busy all day and had to reward herself in the evening. She climbed into the carriage and took out a piece of pork belly weighing about six or seven pounds from the space, and then took out a bag of fine noodles.
Today is the day when she misses the big meat pie. Wu Yuetang took out her big stone slab and started making dough pie. While the dough was resting, she chopped the meat filling and divided it into three kinds of meat filling: spicy, fragrant and non-spicy.
When half the pot of oil was poured into the pot, Wu Yuetang heard her sisters-in-law and parents gasping in shock from behind.
"Hey, why did you pour so much oil? You don't need so much oil to make pancakes! You're such a waste!"
Li was so anxious that she stamped her feet and slapped her knees repeatedly. She was just worried about the food and did not blame her daughter.
"Mom, just put your heart in your stomach."
Wu Yuetang didn't explain much and continued to knead the pancake. After kneading a big pancake, she put it into the oil pan and fried it.
As expected, the big meat patties are the most delicious and they are also fragrant when fried, except that they use a lot of oil.
Because the Wu family was at the front of the group, the aroma drifted down the mountain road again, making the rest of the family extremely greedy.
"Is this Wu family girl cooking again?"
"Oh, what is this made of? It smells so good."
"There's the aroma of noodles and meat. Hey, the Wu family is having meat again tonight."
The voices that came one after another were all filled with envy.
The fried meat patties took about half an hour, and a total of 150 patties came out of the pan, 50 of each of the three flavors. Then they started to put them on plates and put them in baskets, and asked the eldest and second brothers to deliver one or two to each family in the village.
Of course, except for Aunt Sun and Chen Chunhe's family.
Those who were originally envious, when they saw the cakes delivered to them, looked towards the Wu family with gratitude, and all felt that Wu Shoutian had given birth to a good daughter.
Wu Yuetang sat on the ground gnawing on a big spicy meat pie, but what she was thinking was, Eat quickly, I want experience, I want to level up!
After the eldest and second brothers came back, the family sat on the ground and ate the seventy or eighty pancakes left behind. No one spoke. Wu Yuetang glanced at them one by one, and they all had their mouths full of glistening food, as if they were still not satisfied.
Good guy, he eats without making a sound.
Everyone was enjoying their pancakes when Aunt Liu suddenly ran up from the foot of the mountain, looking anxious.
"Wu girl, something bad has happened!"
"Aunt Liu, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
Wu Yuetang stood up quickly with the biscuit still in her mouth.
"Hey, Wu girl, hide quickly! Wang Tongsheng from Liuwan Village is here to look for you!"
Wu Yuetang paused in her biscuit-eating spree. Wang Xiaobin was approaching? Wu Shoutian and Li, who were standing nearby, were also startled and stood up immediately.
