Chapter 12: Delicious food looks scary, doesn't it?



There seemed to be a lot of insects in a bamboo tube, but they were all roasted in a short time.

The Xu family's two treasures were reluctant to finish it all at once, so they ate it in small bites, and finally licked their fingers clean.

Xu Ning: Is it really that delicious?

Xu Ning was skeptical but didn't dare to get close, and finally fell asleep in a daze.

The next morning, Xu Ning woke up to find Xu Da roasting fresh insects again! These insects were caught by Xu Da and Li the Hunter when they checked the traps that morning. There weren't many, only half as many as last night.

Xu Ning rubbed her eyes and unknowingly moved to the side of Xu's second child, who woke up earlier than her. At the same time, she also smelled the strong smell of protein coming from the burning fire.

Xu Ning swallowed his saliva. It did smell a bit good!

Is it true that all delicious food looks scary?

Xu Ning's sleepy mind suddenly made her miss crayfish. Didn't she also think crayfish were scary before?

But ever since he had eaten Ma Xiao once, crayfish became cute, just like Xu Ning didn't find the roasted insects scary anymore when he looked at them.

Xu Ning was so resistant to insects last night, and now she didn't feel comfortable asking Xu Da for them directly, after all, she had said yesterday that she didn't want to eat them.

But Xu Ning's stomach was rumbling from the smell, so he had to go back to bed and take out the box. He communicated with the treasure chest in his mind, "Bao, change some secret barbecue spices!"

Finally, Xu Ning not only took out a plate of spices, but also took out a few sweet potatoes.

Of course, Xu Ning would not be so foolish as to just take the things and go over. Instead, he handed them to Old Mrs. Xu who was already busy trying to decide whether to put eggs in the cooked wild vegetables.

When Old Mrs. Xu saw Xu Ning taking out food from the box again and found that it was sweet potatoes, she breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was sweet potatoes.

Old Mrs. Xu had a helpless look on her face and took it under Xu Ning's flattering gaze.

Xu Ning chuckled. Grandma didn't scold her! However, Xu Ning dared to take the things because Li the Hunter was not around. He had taken his wife and children to the stream to wash up early in the morning.

Old Mrs. Xu poured the spices into a broken bowl and handed it back to Xu Ning. She washed the sweet potatoes, chopped them into pieces, and stewed a pot of sweet potato and wild vegetable soup.

After Xu Ning threw the plate back into the box, he ran back to Xu Da and waited to feed him.

When Li the Hunter came back with his wife and children, Xu Ning was busy using bamboo sticks to poke the roasted bugs covered in barbecue sauce in the bowl!

Oh! It smells so good!

So fragrant! Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!
