Chapter 070: Uncle, I'm Hungry
He couldn't bear to refuse.
But he said only a minute ago that if you want to listen to him in everything, you can't just a few seconds before your own authority as a leader is trampled on.
Xie Yuanjiu deliberately kept a straight face.
"No, we have very little food left, we have to save some food, otherwise we will really starve to death."
But as soon as he finished speaking, his stomach rumbled several times very uncooperatively, and it was very loud, Yao Wenjing pursed his lips and smiled.
"Uncle Yuan Jiu, just a little bit, a little bit of rice, I have a way to ensure that we can be full."
Fortunately, the pot Xie Yuanjiu brought is still there, at least she can boil water for cooking, I know that this little girl is good at cooking, but it is difficult for the Qiao woman to cook without rice, Xie Yuanjiu was a little curious, a little rice, she can make the two of them full, how can she do it?
"Okay, just a little."
At this time, I saw Yao Wenjing picking up his hoe and about to leave the cave, Xie Yuanjiu was a little nervous, and followed closely.
"Where are you going?"
Yao Wenjing was planning to dig some nettles next to Haizi outside, and during the day, when Xie Yuanjiu returned to the cave, she was waiting for him next to Haizi, and accidentally found that there were a lot of nettles there.
This nettle is actually also a traditional Chinese medicine, regulating the spleen and stomach, most of the locals call it ginseng fruit, there are not many in this mountain, but there are many on a mountain less than 100 miles away, because it has the effect of strengthening the spleen and stomach, Yao Wenjing also ate a lot for his son in his previous life.
Although they are all Chinese medicinal materials produced in the mountains, compared with Cordyceps, this nettle is sold for about 11 catties even after a few decades, compared to the value of Cordyceps which is often hundreds of thousands of catties, it is simply a heaven and an underground, so the locals are not rare, and few people pay attention to it on the Phoenix Mountain, which is not abundant.
This is the first time Xie Yuanjiu has dug bracken nettle, he lit a torch beside him, and used Yao Wenjing's small hoe to dig in the ground little by little, and after a while, he dug up about a pound of small pieces of bracken nettle, and it smelled a fragrance, but unfortunately, next to this Haizi, Yao Wenjing only knew this small piece, and it was not easy to find it at night, so he could only talk about it tomorrow.
She put it on in a cloth bag, washed it in the cool water next to it, and took a bite directly.
Xie Yuanjiu also took a bite, don't say it, it tastes really good, this girl, she knows a lot, let her stay, who takes care of who doesn't know whom, he suddenly felt that he promised her to stay, what a wise choice.
At the mouth of the cave, Yao Wenjing also dug a few wild vegetables, for fear of encountering wolves outside, so the two quickly evacuated to the inside after digging a few.
A little bit of rice, washed nettle, and a dozen cordyceps and wild vegetables, after a while, I smelled the fragrance.
Next to the fire, Yao Wenjing was stirring the porridge with a wooden stick, Xie Yuanjiu was sitting next to him, neither of them spoke, and the surroundings were so quiet that there was only the sound of the whirring wind.
He could see Yao Wenjing's side face, his long eyelashes jumping in the firelight, and the sea of stars seemed to be hidden in his eyes, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on this girl's forehead, and Xie Yuanjiu actually had the urge to wipe her sweat.
But he didn't dare to make a mistake.
"Jing girl, why don't you go to the rest meeting, this porridge will still boil for a while, I'll keep it, and I'll call you when it's ready."
Yao Wenjing also felt that her eyelids were a little fighting, she stood up and returned to the bottom of the L cave, but as soon as she lay down, she poked her head out again, and made a grimace at Xie Yuanjiu, her tone was brisk, with a bit of teasing.
"Uncle Yuan Jiu, remember to call me later, don't let anyone steal food."
A sentence not to steal food made Xie Yuanjiu's face turn red, this dead girl, why don't you open a pot and mention which pot, when did she steal it, it was never good.
He's not welcome.
"Then don't go to sleep, or when you wake up, you will not even have a little soup."
didn't think that Yao Wenjing took this sentence seriously, and got up as soon as he was bone, and that appearance caused Xie Yuanjiu to laugh out loud.
Just wanted to make a joke and let her continue to sleep, Yao Wenjing had already come to grab the wooden stick.
"Hmph, I also said that I won't steal it, I don't believe you, I want to cook it myself."
As soon as he got the stick in his hand, he heard the sound of rustling at the door, followed by a sharp wolf howl.
The voice rose from low to high, long and subdued.
"Whew...... Whew......"
Right in front of the ear.
Yao Wenjing was so frightened that she threw away the wooden stick, tears came out of her eyes, and she shrank directly behind Xie Yuanjiu's back, trembling all over.
"Uncle Yuanjiu, wolf."
