Chapter 150: Dinner
After eating, Shen Xiaoxiao asked Xiao Yan to rest. After all, he must have not rested well in the wild for a few days.
"Goddess."
"Witch doctor, is there something wrong?" Generally, witch doctors would not come to her on purpose unless there was something wrong.
"Didn't they bring back a few cows? What should we do with these cows?" Although they brought them back together, the trap was set by Xiao Yan and it was Xiao Yan who led them there, otherwise they would not have been able to catch so many cows.
Shen Xiaoxiao did not expect the witch doctor to ask her this. After thinking for a while, she said, "Why not keep them in the tribe for use together? The tribe will keep them normally."
The witch doctor frowned. Shen Xiaoxiao thought she was dissatisfied with this arrangement. Just as she was about to speak, she heard, "But Xiao Yan took them to catch them. If you give them to the tribe, you will suffer a loss." Although the goddess said that everyone would use them together, they kept them, and they must have used more of them normally. The goddess and the others would definitely not care about these things, but she did not want the goddess to suffer a loss.
"It's nothing. We usually use them. We don't need to raise them. We've taken advantage of them." Shen Xiaoxiao smiled. She didn't care much about this. After all, the witch doctor would definitely not take advantage of her.
Shen Xiaoxiao didn't care, but the witch doctor didn't want to.
"No, it's not fair to you." The witch doctor said firmly. Usually, the goddess would take good care of them. They said that they couldn't take advantage of the goddess no matter what. After thinking for a while, he said, "The tribe will share these cows with you equally." In this way, the goddess still suffered a loss, but although Xiao Yan led them there, they also contributed. If they gave them all to the goddess, others would definitely think more. The goddess suffered a loss if they shared them equally, so they gave more prey to the goddess.
Shen Xiaoxiao was slightly stunned. Although she already knew that the witch doctor would definitely not let her suffer a loss, she was still a little surprised when she heard it. "No, it's too much." There were dozens of people going, even if Xiao Yan led the way, but they shouldn't share so much, after all, everyone contributed.
After a while of bargaining, the two finally decided to give Shen Xiaoxiao and her friends a cow and all the prey they hunted back to them. Shen Xiaoxiao felt that it was too much, but the witch doctor said that she was not willing to give anything, and so did the others.
Although Shen Xiaoxiao was helpless, she still agreed, and she felt warm in her heart.
She told Xiao Yan about this matter, and Xiao Yan was not surprised, after all, he had expected it.
"We can't finish so many prey, so why not treat them to eat, just in time for the new house to be lively." Shen Xiaoxiao suggested that if they didn't eat it quickly in this weather, it would go bad, and she and Xiao Yan couldn't eat it all at once, otherwise they would have to pickle it.
She guessed that the witch doctor thought so too, otherwise he wouldn't give it all to her.
"Okay." Xiao Yan didn't have any objections. After all, moving to a new house has always been in their plan. Even if there were no prey, he would still go to hunt some prey back, and now it's easier.
"Then let's deal with these prey first, otherwise they might stink tomorrow."
"Well, I'll ask Qingshan and the others to help."
Shen Xiaoxiao responded softly. After all, they didn't know how long it would take for the two of them to deal with so many. They had to stew them after cleaning them. This way, they would be more flavorful and could be eaten directly tomorrow. Otherwise, they would stink if they were left to cook them tomorrow.
Although some meats are not so delicious after being stewed for a long time, it is better than having nothing to eat.
Soon Qingshan and the others came over, and a group of people quickly cleaned up these wild boars and pheasants.
Soon Shen Xiaoxiao led them to cook all the prey. For a while, the atmosphere was very lively, and soon the tribe was filled with fragrance, which made people salivate.
Although there were many people, they were still busy until the moon rose. Shen Xiaoxiao also told them that they would move tomorrow and asked them to stay in the tribe for a feast.
The next day, Shen Xiaoxiao got up early. She went out with Xiao Yan when the others were still awake. When the others got up, they found that they were not there and were a little anxious. They searched the whole tribe but couldn't find anyone. They were anxious when they saw them coming back and hurried to greet them.
Seeing their anxious expressions, Shen Xiaoxiao felt a little guilty for a while. She thought they would be back soon, but she didn't expect to make them worry.
She went with Xiao Yan to pick beans. After all, eating meat alone would be greasy, and only one kind of vegetable would be monotonous.
Seeing what they took, the others also understood and did not blame them. They just said, "Goddess, you can let us go together next time."
Shen Xiaoxiao smiled lightly and agreed. She was not a person who liked to trouble others.
Soon Shen Xiaoxiao washed the vegetables, mainly beans and bean sprouts, and some wild vegetables she dug. The vegetables she planted could not be eaten yet.
Others helped her wash and cook the dishes. Others had already gone to the new house to see it. For a while, the new house was filled with laughter. Shen Xiaoxiao listened to their chat with a smile, and kept frying with her hands. Soon, the dishes were ready.
At noon, Shen Xiaoxiao led them to put the dishes on the table. Since Ashu and Yan learned carpentry, they made some tables and chairs for the tribe, so there was no need to worry about not having enough tables and chairs.
After frying a few dishes, there was also the meat stewed yesterday and the soup made with meat bones. She also asked Xiao Yan to catch a dozen fish and each table was served with a steamed fish. Fortunately, there were enough plates, otherwise it would not be enough. They set up a total of fifteen tables.
Shen Xiaoxiao said some auspicious words to Xiao Yan and opened the table. Originally, Shen Xiaoxiao wanted to write a couplet, but she had to give up because there was no paper. She had thought about making paper before, but the daily necessities of life delayed it. After all, she couldn't even eat enough, so how could she have the mood to think about other things?
But now she felt that this could be put on the agenda, and she wanted to teach them to read, otherwise she would leave them notes after the paper was made, but they would not understand and could only worry.
Although the meat was stewed yesterday, Shen Xiaoxiao added enough seasoning, and after a night of marinating, it tasted better now.
A group of people swept away the food on the table, and everyone burped. Although there were not many types, the quantity was large.
"Mother, when can we eat such delicious food again?" A cub said with bright eyes.
Others couldn't help laughing, "You kid, you just think about the next meal after eating?"
"Do you think you can eat such delicious food at any time? We are blessed by the goddess to eat such good food, so you should be content."
The cub was not young, so he naturally knew that he couldn't help asking. He had never eaten as full as today, and every dish was delicious.
Shen Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "If you want to eat, you can come to my place to eat."
The cub shook his head. He knew that he couldn't ask for the goddess's things, let alone eat the goddess's food, which would bring trouble to the goddess.
"Goddess, don't spoil them. If they get used to eating the food you cook, they will dislike our food because it's not delicious." A female laughed.
Others also echoed. It was obviously the same method. They just put less leaves that the goddess put in, but the taste was very different. Not to mention the cubs, they all liked the food made by the goddess more.
I've been busy these days, so the update will be later.
