At noon, Luo Xinglan made hot pot for everyone.
The hot pot gift set that Frog brought back this time contains various vacuum-packed ingredients, including meatballs, beef and mutton, tripe, shrimp paste, and various vegetables...
The ingredients were very complete, and they even thoughtfully prepared the base sauce and dipping sauce.
With so many family members, Luo Xinglan borrowed several pots from Jiang Mingze before she could start cooking the hot pot.
She originally wanted to make two kinds of hot pot bases: clear broth and spicy broth. However, when she asked the little ones for their opinions, they surprisingly agreed on both.
Wild Giant Sheep: "What kind of clear soup is this! I eat boiled vegetables every day and my mouth is so bland. I want spicy food!"
Luo Xinglan glanced at the wild giant sheep.
Why didn't she remember that she fed it boiled vegetables every day?
But then I thought, it's been a long time since we've had such a relaxed meal together, so let's just let it be.
She nodded: "Okay! What kind of broth would you like? Oh, and if you don't want a spicy broth, besides clear broth, we also have tomato and mushroom broth, whatever you'd like."
Husky: "I like them all! But I prefer the spicy hot pot!"
Frog cub: "Lanlan, I want to eat spicy hot pot too! I love chili peppers!"
Thief: "Milk and I also eat spicy hotpot!"
Luo Xinglan glanced at the thief and his little follower, Milk: "Okay!"
Little Ear Mouse: "Spicy hotpot, spicy hotpot, I want spicy hotpot too!"
Little Divine Bird: "If you all eat spicy hot pot, then I'll eat spicy hot pot too!"
Little White Tiger: "I eat spicy food too!"
Luo Xinglan finally turned her gaze to the leader, Tuanzi: "Tuanzi, what would you like to eat?"
After asking, she seemed to feel something was wrong, "Uh... can you eat hot pot?"
The dumplings love shady environments, and since they're usually in the iceberg, the food they eat is probably all cold, right?
Can I eat hot pot?
The leader, Tuanzi, pointed to the crown on her head: "That's great! With this Ice Spirit Stone, we're no longer limited by temperature! I also want to try the spicy hot pot!"
Luo Xinglan: "What about the other dumplings?"
Leader Dumpling: "It's spicy too!"
Luo Xinglan felt relieved and began to diligently cook the hot pot.
While the hot pot was cooking, Luo Xinglan took out all the dipping sauces and let the little ones choose for themselves.
There are essentially two choices: sesame paste or oil dipping sauce.
This time there was a disagreement.
The wild giant sheep, the frog boy, the little divine bird, and the little white tiger chose sesame paste, while the other little guys chose oil sauce.
As for the dumplings, it was their first time eating hot pot, and they didn't know what to choose.
The wild giant sheep persuaded the leader Tuanzi: "Of course, choose sesame paste! How can it be called hot pot without sesame paste? Listen to me, choose sesame paste!"
The leader Tuanzi hesitantly reached out to Majiang.
The Husky immediately blocked it: "Why choose sesame paste? It's sticky in your mouth. Listen to me, choose oil sauce!"
The leader Tuanzi hesitated for a moment, then reached for the oil dish again.
The wild giant sheep was anxious: "Tsk! You, a dog who has never seen the world, do you know what delicious food is? Sesame paste and hot pot are the perfect match!"
The husky retorted, "You think I'm naive? I think you're the arrogant old man! I'll take the oil-based dipping sauce!"
Wild Giant Sheep: "Hey, you ignorant brat, do you want to fight?"
Husky: "Come on, come on, who's afraid of who?"
Leader Tuanzi: "Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"
Luo Xinglan watched as the wild giant sheep and the husky were about to fight, and began to reflect on herself.
I didn’t expect that even in the survival world, I could still see the debate between sesame paste and oil sauce.
Even the Huskies, who have always admired wild giant sheep, confronted it.
She should just throw all that dipping sauce into the sea!
Don't eat any of it!
Luo Xinglan: "Alright, Tuanzi, choose whatever dipping sauce you want. If you two say another word, I'll let you switch dipping sauces, so the Wild Giant Sheep can eat the oil sauce and the Husky can eat the sesame sauce!"
As soon as she said this, the wild giant sheep and the husky looked at her in shock: "How vicious!"
Luo Xinglan smiled: "Who was speaking just now?"
The wild giant ram shook its head violently and covered its mouth with its hooves.
The Husky buries its head deep and pretends to be an ostrich.
Luo Xinglan finally got some peace and quiet.
Soon, small bubbles began to appear in the red oil soup base in the pot.
The dumplings had all chosen their favorite dipping sauces.
Beef, mutton and meatballs were put into the pot one by one. After a while, everyone was happily enjoying the hot pot.
Facing the steaming hot pot, Luo Xinglan couldn't feel a single bit of heat.
She glanced at the leader, Tuanzi, and perhaps because of that, she unconsciously lowered the temperature around them.
It works even better than an air conditioner.
After lunch, everyone worked together to clean up the mess, and Luo Xinglan began to think about the children.
She waved her hand, summoning the chieftain Tuanzi to her side, and asked, "Tuanzi, how many people do you have?"
There are so many dumplings, we can’t let them all sleep on the raft, right?
She knew the number of dumplings, so she had an idea in mind when building the house.
Leader Dumpling: "My benefactor, besides me, there are 200 dumplings in total."
Luo Xinglan was astonished; there were actually 200 dumplings.
Fortunately, her raft was big enough that she didn't have to worry about accommodation at all.
She quickly built a house for the dumplings, a large and spacious house that could accommodate not only 200 dumplings, but even 500.
Unexpectedly, the leader Tuanzi said, "Benefactor, we don't need to live in such a big place! A small space is enough!"
Luo Xinglan waved his hand: "How can that be? My family has the conditions to let you live in a big house, so you don't have to squeeze together."
Leader Tuanzi: "Well, actually it's because we like to huddle together for warmth, and we're used to huddling together... It makes me feel warm and safe."
Luo Xinglan then remembered that when she first saw the dumplings, they were indeed huddled together in dense clusters.
Fearing she would be disappointed, the leader, Tuanzi, quickly added, "But we also really enjoy living in big houses! It's time to train them to be more independent!"
Luo Xinglan was both amused and exasperated: "Tuanzi, you don't need to comfort me. How about this, I'll build you another little house, and you can stay in whichever one you want, okay?"
Leader Tuanzi: "Okay! Thank you, benefactor!"
Soon, Luo Xinglan built a small house next to the main house.
The leader, Tuanzi, happily called all the other Tuanzi over and let them choose their favorite houses.
The little dumplings swarmed towards the small room, piled up on top of each other, and looked at Luo Xinglan with round eyes: "Thank you, benefactor!"
Looking at the room full of fluffy little balls, Luo Xinglan couldn't stop smiling.
So cute, so incredibly cute!
How can there be such an adorable creature?
