The Beasts of the World [farming] - Chapter 174 New Year
Playing fish **** has almost become a traditional show in the tribe. Everyone has played fish **** for two years and the movements are also very skilled.
Today is a rare sunny day, the weather is dry and cold, the sun is mild, and the ice and snow are shining in the sun.
When Ren Heyin and Yunming arrived, all the orcs and sub-orcs in the tribe were busy living on the ice, yelling chants throughout the tribe, and there was also the sound of everyone talking and discussing loudly.
The people in the tribe have been busy for quite some time, and the results have been remarkable.
Piles of fish were piled on the ice, as high as a hill.
Fish catchers, fish killers, fish washers, slicers, pounders... Everyone has a division of labor and cooperation, and the river shows a busy scene.
"Yin, Yunming-are you here?"
"Yeah, is there anything I can help?"
Bei Straighten up and beat his back, smiling with a kind wrinkle, "Yes, this year's fish ball quality still needs you to come over and check."
Fish **** don’t need to add too much seasoning. Put the boneless and skinned fish into a dashi chub to pour out the gelatin, then put it in a pot, boil it in warm water, and then freeze it.
The fish they catch are big wild fish from the river, which tastes very delicious, and there is almost no need to put anything else to season them except salt.
The fish **** made in this way are white, delicate, and delicious. No matter how they are made, they are delicious.
Yunming went to help catch the fish, and Ren Heyin came over to instruct to add salt to taste, and by the way, check whether the fish **** are cooked.
Qing is about to give birth in a few months. His belly is already quite big. He can't stand and squat for a long time. He looks at the children in the tribe and does command work by the way.
Ren Heyin watched the fish ball making procedure for a while, and felt that there was no problem. He came to sit in front of Qing and said, "The sun is really good today."
"Yeah, it's been a long time since I saw such good sunlight." Qing smiled and moved his position to give him a bigger seat. "I sat here for a while, and the sun made me sleepy."
Ren Heyin saw the stick and wool in his hand and was surprised: "What are you?"
"This is the fluff of a big rabbit. It's very soft. I knit a small dress and I can put it on when the child comes out."
Ren Heyin looked at Qing's belly, "Are you sure it's a small Asian orc?"
"It's basically certain, if it were a little orc, it would have been about to give birth by this time."
Ren Heyin sighed, "It's great."
"Thanks to you."
!
Qing was knitting a sweater while talking, his hands were very clever, and he could realize many things without being taught by others.
Ren Heyin lightly touched the finished product he had woven. The small piece of woolen yarn that has been woven is very soft. It can be worn by the child next winter, and then covered with a soft and thick animal skin quilt. It will be snowy in winter. Great, no matter how cold the weather is, I won’t be afraid.
Everyone in the army is good at work, and fishballs have no technical content. When the sun sets in the afternoon, everyone starts to work. Ren Heyin takes a look. There are more than 800 baskets of fishballs and meatballs, enough for everyone to eat. By the beginning of spring next year.
Ren Heyin and Yunming carried some beast meat and came to fight beast meatballs. When they went back, everyone in the tribe forced them to bring a few more baskets of fishballs.
Their meatballs and fishballs add up to five baskets. In the end, Yunming had to change back into a beast shape before carrying the five baskets of meatballs home.
Ren Heyin made an appointment with the people in the tribe, and they will not come over for a while and spend the winter at home.
Everyone in the tribe has always had the habit of hibernation. When the weather is very cold, many people eat only one meal a day, especially the orcs, who only wake up for a short time a day.
In this severe winter, everyone can't spare time and mood to learn new knowledge.
Ren Heyin is not reluctant. They have been teaching for a period of time in early winter, and most of them have taken the final exam, and the results are not bad.
Everyone who has learned this level is basically enough.
When the spring of next year, people from other tribes will come, Ren Heyin plans to run another short-term literacy and arithmetic class, and then spread the knowledge.
They have come into contact with more people, and they have met more smart people, and there will always be better learners by then, so that after repeating it again and again every year, the orcs will slowly spread related civilizations far away.
Maybe one day when they go out, they will find that even if they have never been to a certain place, this place has their legend.
Ren He thought for a moment, and looked forward to it.
Day by day, the snow fell and melted, melted and fell, and it snowed mostly.
Most of the winter is rainy and snowy, and only a few days are sunny.
When the weather is particularly good, Ren Heyin and Yunming will go to the tribe. They will not do anything to the tribe, they will have dinner and chat with everyone.
When the weather is too cold, the frequency of bathing is also reduced. When the weather is fine, everyone will go to the hot spring together to bathe.
! Ren Heyin and Yunming wash almost every day. At this time, if they didn't go to the hot spring bath with the tribesmen, they would walk far away and find another place to wash.
Even if the snow is heavy, it will not hinder Yunming's travel. They also specially choose to go out to the hot springs when it is snowing, especially the hot springs on the grassland.
If you go at night, the hot spring is near the green grass and the distance is white snow, and there are bright and endless stars above your head.
Sitting in the hot spring pool, Ren Heyin opened his eyes and looked around. The place visible to the naked eye was the boundless late night. They could not see the end, and the night became deeper and deeper.
They burned a lot of glass last year, and Ren Heyin specially used charcoal ground toner to make two sunglasses.
When the weather is good and the wind is not so strong, they often go out to play outside with their skis. At this time, they wear sunglasses and play outside for a long time.
After Ren Heyin became a sub-orc, his balance ability was much better. Whether he was skiing or snowboarding, he basically couldn't fall.
He sometimes likes to pick particularly thrilling ski trails, anyway, with Yunming's protection, he can't fall.
His tail has grown a bit longer. When exposed, it is a big hairy strip that grows behind his back. When it is erected, it covers his entire back, and he can see his fiery red tail directly over his head.
When his tail touched the ground, he would sometimes unknowingly sway his tail and throw the snow spots all around.
Yunming particularly prefers his tail, and likes to let him show his tail out to play when he has nothing to do.
Ren Heyin didn't like this game very much. His tail roots were too sensitive, both his tail and ears. Every time he encountered this, he had the illusion of dying on the bed.
Yunming's physical strength is actually much better than he imagined, especially when he was pressed on the bed, Ren Heyin sometimes popped pointed canine teeth to bit Yunming's shoulder to vent his anger, in order to retaliate against him for tossing himself.
At this time, Yunming usually hugged him and let him bite. If he got interested, he would rub his pointed canines with his fingertips, and press him again or a few times.
As the days passed, they did not fiddle with all kinds of food, watch movies or go out to play, and there were many times when they lay in bed and rested their body bones that were too much tossing.
Ren Heyin has a search box, and he is used to using it as a calendar.
!
They previously adjusted the time specially and used a simulated calendar. The simulated calendar situation was fairly consistent with theirs, and even the one-year period was extended from twelve months to fifteen months.
When Ren Heyin uses the search box every day, he subconsciously glances at it. What day is today or what day is today?
He glanced again that day, and suddenly found, "Boss, 15 months are almost over, and the beginning of spring is about to come."
The first day of the first month is the beginning of spring, and it is also the Spring Festival.
Yun Ming leaned over and took a look, "Really fast."
"It's pretty fast, one year has passed."
According to their experience last year, after the beginning of spring, the weather will slowly warm up, and the ice in the river will slowly melt. When going out one day, you can suddenly see that there are buds on the trees, and the water in the river is flowing. The blocks collided bang bang bang.
"This year's Spring Festival we finally have a house free. Would you like to celebrate it?"
"Make a table of New Year's Eve dinner and make dumplings."
Ren Heyin tried his best to recall the customs of the motherland, and then remembered that these were things from the previous life, and his eyes could not help but show emotion.
He actually doesn't remember exactly what he will do during the New Year, but there will always be things like cleaning, sticking couplets, making dumplings, and preparing a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.
Ren Heyin put his hands on his knees, and after the memory, he raised his head and smiled at Yunming infinitely.
Yun Ming scratched the back of his neck, "There are so many days left, we can prepare slowly."
"Okay." Ren Heyin said: "Let's prepare for the general cleaning first, and then prepare the materials and wait for a search every year. This year we will cook a table of feasts."
They don’t lack anything here, especially food. They prepared a lot of food this year, and they couldn’t put it in the warehouse, and some of the food was buried directly in the snowdrift outside.
If you want to eat these foods, you have to take them back and put them on the stove to slowly defrost them.
"There is also rice wine. I almost forgot about the Chinese New Year. The remaining half of our jars of rice wine are also taken out. Have a good meal during the Chinese New Year."
Yun Ming: "Okay. Do you want to inform everyone in the tribe?"
Ren Heyin said: "Let’s inform, tell them the specific date of the New Year’s Eve, we will have lunch with the tribe, and we will reunite when we come back in the evening."
"!" When the teaching goes deeper, let's try to see if we can revise our own calendar, and later use the calendar to guide everyone in farming and festivals. "
Before the New Year, Ren Heyin and Yunming went to the tribe to talk about it.
The people in the tribe don't have the concept of New Year, but they are very convinced of them. Everyone takes everything they say seriously.
Ren Heyin said that everyone should prepare early if they think about the Spring Festival.
"Do you want hot pot?"
"We have so many fishballs and meatballs this year, and there are all kinds of animal meat outside. It is best to eat hot pot."
Ren Heyin looked at the others, and most of them had an eager look in their eyes.
Ren He smiled, "Then we will eat hot pot."
The Spring Festival is also the beginning of spring. After determining the dishes, Ren Heyin specially found out the Mingdou from the warehouse, planning to send some pots of bean sprouts on the kang.
"This kind of bean can sprout bean sprouts?"
"Of course, you can eat it as long as it can successfully grow out. It doesn't matter if you have elders and eat peas."
They haven't found any vegetables like cabbage baby cabbage here, but there are some green onions and garlic sprouts.
The weather is too cold, and there is no greenhouse here. Except for the hot springs, there are still some onions and garlic. Others have been recovered long ago, and the ones that have not been recovered are frozen to death.
Ren Heyin loves planting, and there are still some residues at the hot spring, but not many, not enough for the entire tribe to eat together.
After deliberation, it is the easiest and most cost-effective way to make bean sprouts.
You don't need too complicated raw materials for bean sprouts, just beans and water.
After soaking the beans, place them in a wooden basin, and then place the wooden basin on the kang, and cover it with a cloth to block light.
I don't know if it was Ren Heyin's superb technique, or Yunming, as a beast god, was blessing these pots of bean sprouts. On the third day, these pots of beans had sprouts.
The freshly sprouted beans are white and fat, put them in your mouth and taste them, and there is an indescribable sweetness and bitterness.
Ren Heyin hadn't eaten vegetables for a long time, and when he tasted this taste, his eyes flashed with surprise, "Boss, you taste it."
Yunming lowered his head and took the bean sprout from him, nodded after tasting, "Not bad."
"Right." Ren Heyin said: "This bean sprouts are delicious. Let's keep some more. We will eat a lot of fish and meat during the New Year. After the New Year, we will just eat some bean sprouts to relieve our greasiness."
