Of course, these wouldn't be enough to fill their stomachs, and they would look for food along the way. After Dongfang Long and the others left, Haitang started making food for the little ones, which was noodles.
When the noodles were ready, Xiaolu and the others got up to eat. After Haitang and the others finished eating, they went out to find something to eat. Xingxing stayed at home to watch over the house, and Xingxing didn't seem to have much of a problem with that.
While Little Deer and Star were watching over the house, Star caught some fish and ate them. Little Deer watched without saying anything, and Star didn't make things difficult for her. In her sister's words, she waited for the other person to speak slowly.
Today, Haitang brought several siblings to a small grove. Few people come here, and of course, what should be gathered has already been gathered by others. Fortunately, most of what Haitang wants is something that others cannot see.
Haitang started by leading her younger siblings to dig for medicinal herbs and then look for food. Yueyue was very diligent while digging for herbs, and not only was she diligent, she did a good job. Xiaohe went to gather wild fruits to eat.
After picking some wild fruits, Xiaohe looked at Haitang and said, "Sister..." Haitang, who was digging for medicinal herbs, looked up when she heard Xiaohe's voice.
She started climbing the tree. "Look there." Hearing this, Haitang was stunned. She looked at the golden rice and her eyes lit up. She immediately started climbing down the tree.
"Yueyue... let's go make something delicious." Upon hearing this, Yueyue nodded, and Haitang led her siblings to get rice.
While they were breaking off the branches, Haitang also asked Yueyue to go back and teach Xiaolu as well, so that they could take all of them back today.
Haitang originally wanted to go back with a basket of rice, but she gave up because she was worried about Xiaohe being alone. Yueyue nodded and went back with a basket of rice.
After returning, Little Deer was still cleaning the pigpen not far away. "Little Deer, carry the basket and come with me. Star, dry the rice ears." Upon hearing this, Star came out and nodded.
Little Deer, unaware of what was going on, obediently carried two baskets and followed along. Yueyue's stamina was not as good as Little Deer's, and when Little Deer saw her, it reached out and hugged Yueyue.
Yueyue looked at the road ahead without refusing and pointed. When they arrived, Xiaolu looked at the golden rice and was a little puzzled, but when she heard this, she quickly started working.
Crabapple trees know little about how the world works. Wheat ripens quickly in spring, and this applies to many fruits as well.
In this situation, Haitang began to teach the fawn how to break the pieces and put them into a basket in small bunches so that they could be easily cleaned up later.
Hearing this, Xiao Lu nodded and started picking the rice. The rice in front of her was about an acre in size, and several baskets couldn't hold it all. Haitang and the others even asked Xiao Lu to carry it back. "Eat this and then carry it back." Hearing this, Xiao Lu nodded, ate a piece of roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), and then carried the rice back.
When Haitang turned around, she noticed that the child was carrying two baskets. She was stunned for a while before she came to her senses, but she didn't say anything. Now, you could see him carrying these things all over the village.
Honestly, there's plenty of wheat to share, but very little rice. Wheat also sprouts up near winter, so there's plenty of food.
Moreover, when the crabapple trees are picked and broken off, people should be careful not to damage the roots of the wheat, so that the wheat can grow very quickly.
The food here is incomparable to what we have in modern times. Wheat can sprout again after the top is removed, but I wonder if rice can too?
Haitang brought back a large amount of golden rice. Several people harvested the rice from one acre of land that day, and luckily, they managed to harvest it all. When Xiuxiu returned home, she looked at the rice that Haitang had harvested.
But instead of asking what it was, he started cooking. Dongfang Long had returned today. He had gone to look for Haitang because she hadn't come back, but instead saw the two of them return.
"Look, it's rice again." Dongfang Long was also happy to hear this. The rice was white and plump, and tasted very good, sweet.
However, there were too few last year, but more were found this year. Actually, he wanted to go outside the circle, but he quickly gave up. He felt that going outside the circle would be suicide for a human.
Dongfang Long was not impatient because he had not yet transformed into a beast. He could now feel the flame within his body. Although he felt it was not enough, he knew that once the flame burned long enough, he could transform into a beast.
Haitang immediately went to prepare the food. After the food was ready, Haitang smiled a lot today. Dongfang Long brought Haitang a small basket of red berries. "These are strawberries." Haitang stared at the apple-sized strawberries for a while.
"Strawberry sounds so nice, have a taste while I wash it." Dongfang Long said as he looked at Haitang. Upon hearing this, Haitang looked at Dongfang Long and nodded.
He took one and ate it. The strawberry was sweet and delicious, and the texture was also very good. "Is it good?" Haitang nodded, and Dongfang Long immediately smiled happily.
Xiaohe and the others looked at Haitang, and Haitang gave one to each of them, including Xiaolu. The already limited strawberries were gone in no time. Dongfanglong was unhappy, so Haitang gave one to him as well. Dongfanglong said, "I gave it to you."
"I gave it to you," Dongfang Long emphasized. Xiaohe and the others looked at the fruit in their hands, then silently turned to eat it. "This is from my sister," the children thought in unison.
Haitang laughed at Dongfang Long's words and reached out to ruffle his hair. "Little Long is so considerate. I know it was from him. Next time I won't give it to them and will keep it for myself. This time, I'll be generous and let them have a taste."
"Okay, I'll do whatever Tangtang says." Dongfang Long nodded, glanced at the people who had eaten his strawberries, and generously said that Tangtang wouldn't give them to anyone else next time.
