Chapter 178 Raising rabbits?
Outside, Yu Qingqing and the others had already picked up a large pile of dry firewood and were keeping it for later use.
There were dead trees everywhere here, and I picked up a lot of them in no time.
Yu Qinghai has also built two stoves with preliminary models.
Seeing that everything was ready, Yu Qingqing walked behind the stone and began to slowly take things out of the space.
Yu Qingqing still took out two pottery jars, and then took out a large bag of brown rice and two big bitter melons.
I also took a few more dogwoods to eat with some chili peppers, and half a bucket of water.
After everything was ready, she turned around and called someone to move things.
Yu Qingqing: "Brother, come here! Please help me carry this bucket over there. I can't reach it.
Let’s hurry up and get something to eat. After we get the food.
Let's take a good rest. The sun is shining brightly now, so we can take a break.
Take these and cook them first. I'll go give the horses some water and grass and come back later."
Yu Qingqing gave all the things to Yu Qinghai and asked him to take them all and cook them first.
She suddenly remembered that she had to feed the horse first. She had been traveling for most of the day and could not neglect it.
At this time, their cart was on the other side of the big tree and rock.
The horse was tied to a nearby tree, where the shade could provide some temporary shelter.
When Yu Qinghai came over and saw what was in front of him, he was stunned for a moment.
Then he smiled and said:
"Third sister, I understand. I'll take this over and let mother cook it first.
You just go and do your own thing. Call me if you need anything.
The sun is so strong now, remember to come early and don’t get yourself sunburned.”
Yu Qinghai knew that these things were taken out by his sister.
But after what happened, he would not ask any more questions so as not to cause psychological burden to his sister.
Dad is right. Everything my sister does is for their family, and he can't do anything to hinder them.
Yu Qinghai was holding a bucket in his left hand and a pottery jar and the bag of brown rice in his right hand.
The chayote was just thrown into the bag and carried over together.
At this time, Hua Qinglu had already lit the fire with a tinder.
The simple stove they built was just big enough to hold clay pots.
Seeing what Yu Qinghai was holding, she stepped forward and took the bag of brown rice herself.
Yu Qingmei simply washed the pottery jar with clean water, then began to fill it with water, and then poured the brown rice directly into the pottery jar to cook.
Yu Qingqing came to the horse and took out a small pile of grass from the space.
When the horse smelled the grass, it ate it in big mouthfuls.
Yu Qingqing searched in the space again, filled a broken porcelain bowl with water, and handed it to it.
After the horse had finished eating, she took the porcelain bowl back and patted its head.
When Yu Qingqing looked up, she saw Yu Qingshu coming out of the woods.
Yu Qingshu was holding a chicken and a rabbit in his hands, and something else in his arms. Yu Qingqing walked up and asked happily:
"Dad, did you catch any prey? Wow, this chicken looks so fat.
I never thought there were actually wild animals in this forest.
This is a rabbit. Hey! Is that a little rabbit in your arms?
Daddy, please give this rabbit to me and I will take care of it.
Let’s stew the chicken today and save the rabbit for later use.”
When Yu Qingqing saw the rabbit in front of her, she immediately had an idea.
Her space was covered with green grass, and there was no other living thing in the space except the wild boar.
The rabbit in front of me is a female, and there are so many little rabbits.
If she put them in the space, there would definitely be more rabbits than she could eat in the future. She was so happy when she thought of this.
After hearing what his daughter said, Yu Qingshu did not remain silent for too long.
He believed that his daughter was a person with her own ideas, so he handed the female rabbit in his hand to Yu Qingqing.
Then he carefully gave her the little rabbit in his arms.
Yu Qingshu: "Okay then, Qing'er, I'll give you the rabbit first, you can handle it.
I'll go prepare the pheasant first, and then we'll stew the chicken.
We haven't eaten meat for a long time, so this is a good opportunity to replenish our intake.
Come over when you're done, and let me know if you need any help."
Yu Qingshu knew that his daughter must want to put the rabbit into the space.
They really couldn't eat the little rabbit, even though the female rabbit had two taels of meat.
But since his daughter could use it, he would definitely give it to her.
After Yu Qingqing got the rabbit, she saw Yu Qingshu walking away.
As soon as he thought about it, the rabbit in his arms appeared in the space.
She had already removed the straw rope from the rabbit's feet. The rabbit was confused for a moment by the sudden scene before her.
After reacting, he began to chew the grass quietly in the ground in the space.
Yu Qingqing just placed the group of little rabbits next to the mother rabbit.
Yu Qingqing planned to make another nest for them later.
This way they can settle down in the space with peace of mind. After arranging all this, she started walking towards Huaqing Road.
Hua Qinglu: "Wow, husband! You really caught something. This chicken looks so fat!
It will be cooked soon, and the water in the clay pot has already boiled.
It can be used to perm chicken feathers. Looks like we are in for a treat today."
Hua Qinglu saw from afar that her husband was holding a fat chicken in his hand.
She hadn't seen meat for a long time, and she was very excited. She could finally eat meat.
Yu Qingshu: "Yes, my lady. This chicken is quite fat. I didn't expect to find such a harvest in the woods.
Then I'll go pluck the feathers from this chicken now, and we'll stew and eat the chicken later.
It’s true that I haven’t eaten meat for a long time, so it’s time to make up for it.”
Yu Qinghai found a corner and cut the chicken's neck first.
The chicken, which was originally full of life, suddenly became deader than dead.
Then he poured the boiling water in the pottery jar directly onto the pheasant.
Plucking the chicken feathers cleanly while it's still hot.
Then use a large knife to gut the chicken, take out all the internal organs, and then simply rinse it with clean water.
After plucking the feathers, the chicken weighed more than five pounds, so they could have a delicious meal.
Yu Qingqing just happened to come over here, and when she saw Yu Qingshu throwing away all the chicken's internal organs, she felt it was a bit of a pity.
In fact, many things in it are edible, but the current conditions do not allow it.
It's a bit of a waste, but there's nothing we can do about it. Besides, Yu Qingshu and the others didn't even know that internal organs were edible.
