With the tacit cooperation of one of the people digging holes in the tree and the other under the tree, they were named by Lin Luo: "Raid the house!"

It took less than an hour for the end to be over.

However, the reason is not that they have exhausted all the holes in the tree where the nuts are stored.

Rather, the packages of hides they had brought with them were all full.

At this point, Lin Luo made a small miscalculation.

He didn't expect that although the long-tailed rat was small, it could store a much more amazing amount of nuts.

At the same time, it is also somewhat underestimated the number of long-tailed rats living in this pine forest.

As a result, the animal skin wrapping brought this time is seriously insufficient.

However, this is not a big deal, the dead season has just begun, and they can come a second or third time......

Soon, after everyone gathered, Lin Luo couldn't help grinning as he looked at the animal skin packages full of nuts.

Not all of the nuts harvested this time are pine seeds.

Inside the hides, Lin Luo also saw hazelnuts, walnuts, and some other unknown nuts that he had never seen before.

With so many nuts, if you send people to collect them, it will take at least a whole day.

But at the moment, it only took them less than an hour, and they were able to do it easily.

The feeling of getting something for nothing is really cool!

Lin Luo thought happily in his heart, and waved to everyone: "Go, go back to Menggu!"

"Yes!"

Hearing this, everyone immediately picked up the bulging animal skin package and returned to Menggu by the same route.

"Squeak, squeak......"

As Lin Luo and his party left, the sharp screams in the pine forest suddenly rang out.

The long-tailed rats, who had always dared to be angry and dare not speak out, jumped out one after another at this time, shouting and condemning their group of "bandit bullies"!

......

"Woo! ......"

Lin Luo held a flat bamboo piece in his hand and kept turning it in the copper pot.

In the copper pot in front of him, what was stir-fried was not food, but half a pot of coarse sand.

"Lin Luo, didn't you say you wanted to fry nuts, why are you frying these sand stones!"

On the side, Feng, who was squatting by the stove, tilted his head and asked Lin Luo with a dissatisfied expression.

When it comes to eating, Feng is still as enthusiastic as ever.

So, after hearing Lin Luo say that nuts will taste better after being fried.

He took the initiative to help Lin Luo and help him take care of the stove.

But at this moment, seeing that Lin Luo was stirring up the sand and gravel after he asked him to burn the fire, Feng was suddenly unhappy.

"I'm going to fry the nuts soon. ”

Hearing Feng's dissatisfied inquiry, Lin Luo saw that the coarse sand in the copper pot had been fried, and then said loudly: "You take out some of the charcoal in the stove, and then you can't use the high fire." ”

"Good. ”

Hearing this, the dissatisfaction on Feng's face suddenly disappeared.

Immediately, according to Lin Luo's instructions, he used two wooden sticks to clip out most of the charcoal in the stove.

At the same time, Lin Luo was not idle, picked up the pottery bowl beside him, and poured the honey water prepared in advance into the pot.

After that, when I saw sugar smoke coming out of the stir-fry a few times, I poured all the pine seeds in the clay pot on the side into the copper pot.

Next, it's a matter of stir-frying more often.

"Lin Luo, are the nuts ripe?"

After about five or six minutes of stir-frying, Feng looked at the pine seeds in the pot that had changed color, and couldn't help but ask again.

"It should be cooked, I'll take a look!"

Lin Luo said as he took out a pine seed from the pot with bamboo chopsticks and gently knocked it open.

Seeing that the pine nuts exposed inside had turned from milky white to pale yellow at this moment, Lin Luo nodded and said, "It's ripe." ”

"I'll try it!"

Hearing Lin Luo's words, Feng suddenly couldn't wait to reach out and pick up the pine seed he had just cracked and put it directly into his mouth.

"Whew~!"

The next moment, the hot pine seeds made Feng exhale again and again, but he still ate it crunchingly.

At the same time, his face gradually showed excitement.

After the pine seeds are fried, they no longer have any greenness and no strong fat taste.

It is crunchier and more fragrant to chew, while also having a faint sweetness.

Sure enough, as Lin Luo said, it became even more delicious!

"Delicious!"

Immediately, Feng nodded his head in praise without hesitation.

"Lin Luo, let me taste one too. ”

"I want it too!"

Hearing Feng's words, Yong and Gu Cao on the side immediately swallowed their saliva and said.

"Father, I want to eat fruit too!"

Even Xiao Xi hugged Lin Luo's thighs and shouted with his head up.

"Wait a minute, let me sift the nuts out of the grit first. ”

Hearing this, Lin Luo said helplessly.

Afterwards, the pine seeds were quickly sifted out of the sand using a simple sieve made of bamboo strips.

After waiting for it to cool down a little, Lin Luo peeled off a pine seed and handed the pine kernel inside to Xiao Xi's mouth.

"Boom!

Xiao Xi immediately opened his mouth and ate the pine seeds, chewing and making a gurgling sound.

"Father, I still want it. ”

The little one had just finished eating, and immediately spoke out again.

Apparently I love the crispy pine seeds!

"Okay, then let's go back and eat with Eminem!"

Hearing this, Lin Luo smiled and nodded.

After speaking, he picked up Xiaoxi with one hand, and reached out to the clay pot containing the freshly fried pine seeds with the other.

"Hey, Lin Luo, why did you take it all!"

"yes, you took all the nuts, what are we going to eat?"

Seeing Lin Luo's actions, Feng and Yong immediately protested dissatisfied.

"If you want to eat it, you can fry it yourself!"

Lin Luo rolled his eyes, and after dropping this sentence at them, he turned around and left directly.

Just now, before the pine seeds were cool, they couldn't wait to eat them.

Now they've eaten half of it, and if they don't take it again, they'll eat it all!

"Come on, Yong, Gu Cao, let's fry it ourselves!"

Seeing this, Feng immediately turned his head towards Yong and Gu Cao and said.

"Good. ”

Hearing this, Yong and Gu Cao immediately nodded in unison.

The whole process of Lin Luo's frying of pine seeds just now, they all saw it.

Now the stove is still burning, and the sand and gravel in the pot are still hot, and it won't take a few minutes to make another pot.

So, the three of them quickly got busy.

......

"It's so fragrant! Is the porridge already cooked?"

Lin Luo had just walked into the house with Xiao Xi in his arms, and immediately smelled a tempting fragrance.

I saw that on the wooden table, there was a large pot of steaming white grain porridge.

There is not only white grain in it, but also some pine seeds.

While Lin Luo went to fry the pine seeds before, he also let Mei cook this pot of pine seed white grain porridge.

"Well, it wasn't long before it was cooked. ”

Hearing this, Mei nodded slightly, picked up the pottery bowl and helped Lin Luo hold the porridge.

Lin Luo also put the clay pot on the table, helped Mei peel the pine seeds and said, "This is the pine seeds I just fried, you can taste them!"
