The next morning, Wren and Thomas fed the horses, put on their training clothes and went out.
Sasha, Christa, and Ymir were already waiting by the well with their horses.
"Ren, you've been slacking off during the holidays. Don't you usually go for a morning jog at dawn?" Ymir started.
Ren is not angry, this is the way this woman talks. Except for being a little polite to Christa, everyone else is treated this way. In a word, just get used to it.
Renn: I'm afraid that if I get into a fight, I won't be able to help but chop her to death.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's go directly!" Ren said bluntly. The bow and arrow were in Sasha's hands yesterday, saying that he wanted to familiarize himself with the feel.
There was only one bow, and Sasha asked her to come today. She hadn't hunted for a long time and her hands were itchy.
Ren agreed. Sasha, who was born as an Orion, was guaranteed to have a hunting level that was not much worse than him.
"Let's go, let's go! I know there are a lot of prey in a forest. I found it during a weight-bearing exercise. Unfortunately, I didn't have the tools at the time." Sasha shook the bow in her hand, feeling refreshed and couldn't wait any longer.
"Okay, let's go!" Thomas also said, and he was ready to learn two tricks.
Everyone rode on horseback, running wildly all the way, and tied up their horses outside the dense forest somewhere outside the camp.
The next step is to walk on foot. The road ahead is already very difficult to walk on horseback, and it is easy to scare others off.
Sasha was obviously very experienced. As soon as she entered the woods, she carefully looked for clues left by various animals. Occasionally, she could find the feces left by some animals not long ago.
Sasha soon realized how scary her pig teammates were. Thomas accidentally scared away a rabbit. When he found a goat, Christa screamed in surprise, and then the goat ran away.
Big Big Wolf: Just run away if the sheep runs away. You really think you can eat it!
Ren couldn't stand it any longer, so he grabbed a plant and said, "Don't follow us anymore. Have you seen the wild vegetables in my hand? You can pull some wild vegetables from the outside. Then you can stew them with the meat."
Everyone was a little embarrassed. Thomas, Christa, they didn't know how to hunt, and they had been doing a disservice. Sasha had a good temper, and someone else might have beaten them.
Renn: For example, if I were hunting this time, I would have...
Thomas would like to learn how to do both, but this is really not something that can be learned in a short time.
"Okay, it's up to you." Thomas responded in a low voice, feeling guilty.
Ymir, Thomas, and Christa walked toward the outskirts of the forest. Without the interference of their pig teammates, Sasha and Renn then went deep into the woods, and the process went relatively smoothly.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, when Thomas and the others were getting impatient, Sasha and Renne came back.
Sasha's face was full of excitement, holding two pheasants in her hands: "Look, it's great!"
Thomas: "It's great, I'm starving to death, and I can finally go back to eat meat."
Ymir and Christa were sorting the freshly pulled wild vegetables.
Thomas was a little regretful. He thought he could help before he came, but in the end he only cheated his teammates. No wonder Renne said he didn't need to come.
He picked up a kind of shiitake mushroom he picked by chance: "Sasha, Ren, can this be eaten?"
Sasha came closer, took a closer look, and nodded: "Okay, it tastes good."
Ren also thinks that today's harvest is not bad. At least he can make chicken stewed with mushrooms! He can also fry two wild vegetables for serving.
After Renn and the others returned to the training corps station, the group went straight to the kitchen of the cafeteria.
Ren deceived Sasha with a mysterious and delicious dish, grabbed the power of cooking, and became the chef.
He found green peppers and potatoes in the kitchen, prepared two eggs, a little green onion, a little ginger, some cooking wine, soy sauce and a little sugar, plus the shiitake mushrooms and fungus picked by Connie, the ingredients were roughly complete.
Ymir and Sasha were handling the two pheasants, Christa was washing the kitchen utensils, and Thomas... Thomas was sitting and waiting for the meal to be served.
To be honest, several people were quite curious about what Ren was going to do, but he had shown good cooking skills before, so no one thought he would waste ingredients.
Ren was wearing an apron, cut the chicken into inch-sized pieces, put it on a plate, added various seasonings one by one and marinated it for a while, put oil in the wok, when the oil was hot, turned down the heat, added green peppers and minced garlic, and stir-fried after the aroma was released.
Go to one side of the pot, turn up the heat to heat the oil, add the marinated chicken pieces, stir-fry until the surface of the chicken is slightly brown, then remove.
Then put the drained mushrooms and fungus into the pot and stir-fry, then pour in the water for soaking the mushrooms, bring to a boil over high heat, add salt, sugar, and soy sauce to color, and cook for another 5 minutes.
Finally, pour in the chicken pieces, then a little cooking wine, cover the pot, simmer over medium heat for a quarter of an hour, and sprinkle with green garlic.
I don’t dare to add wild vegetables. Who knows whether these wild vegetables will ruin the taste of the main dish, so I just fry two plates of green vegetables.
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, three plates of food were placed on a large table made up of two tables.
Sasha has already turned on the foodie mode. She ignores no one else, pays no attention to her image, and is sweating profusely while eating. This is why she is quite beautiful, but not many people chase her.
"Ren, what are you making? It's so delicious! Is it chicken stewed with mushrooms?" Sasha asked, holding her stomach after eating.
"It's very delicious, much better than Ymir." Christa said with admiration.
Ymir rolled her eyes. Of course she didn't know how to cook, and neither did Christa.
Ren was speechless. Does it take so much trouble to stew chicken with mushrooms? What he cooked was actually braised chicken. He knew the general recipe. He had the original cooking skills of Ren, so he boldly tried it in the first month after he came here.
I passed it. Although the method and steps may not be correct, the taste is passable.
"If you like it, I will write a recipe for you later."
"Please give it to me." Sasha had already begun to dream about the good days in the future.
Thomas patted Ren on the shoulder: "They didn't believe in your cooking skills at first, but I firmly support you. Remember to cook more good things in the future. The sweet and sour eggplant last time was good... I will let you do it if I have a chance.
Show me my cooking skills."
Ren didn't say anything. This man didn't know anything at all. One time Thomas volunteered to cook for himself, but the fried eggs turned out to be burnt!
"What does it smell like? It smells so good." At this time, some people came to have dinner.
Ren saw Eren, Amin and Mikasa entering the cafeteria, and directly invited them to eat together. The few of them only killed one chicken, and there was still another pot.
Then I saw the "eldest brother" Reiner in the training soldiers and his follower Berthold standing aside and looking at them curiously. Upon seeing this, Mr. Lei shouted: "Reiner, come on, sit down!"
Just like that, there were more and more people, and the atmosphere was very lively. In a short while, more than 20 people had gathered, and it was okay to have some soup if they couldn't get chicken.
The ice beauty Ani took a bite of the chicken and was a little surprised: "I didn't expect you could cook? I thought guys like you only know how to immerse yourself in training."
She was not familiar with Ren, and she didn't know that the stupid young man in her eyes could cook.
What do you mean? You look down on a rough guy like me? Do you think I won’t criticize you because you are pretty?
Ren responded directly: "You don't seem to know how to cook!"
Ani narrowed his eyes. Mina was right. Talking to him would sometimes make him angry to death.
Ren was quickly slapped in the face. He didn't know that the ice beauty in front of him was a good cook. Soon after, Ani started cooking food for everyone. She, who had always been unsociable, also gained a few more friends.
Arnie: You can't be underestimated by a fool.
"Yeah, I thought he was just like Allen, he couldn't do anything except training." Ymir interjected still sharply.
Eren, who was inexplicably affected by the gunfire, blushed a little. Of course he couldn't cook. But Mikasa, who often helped Kara (Eren's mother) with housework, was good at her craftsmanship.
The third master is the kind of strong woman who can go to the hall, go to the kitchen, scale high walls, and defeat gangsters. But she is so powerful that Ellen is not used to it.
Renn: My cooking skills are three-quarters of my level, no more.
Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Renn patted Thomas on the shoulder: "Thomas, you didn't do anything today. I'm going back to practice boxing, so I'll leave it to you to clean up here."
After saying this, he walked away without giving Thomas a chance to reply.
Thomas:(?_?)
Thomas was left looking at the table with messy cups and plates in confusion.
For a period of time after that, everyone ate and drank with Sasha and Renn, and their lives were quite enjoyable.
However, happy times are always short-lived. One day when everyone saw the figure of Bald Keith, they knew that the good times were over again.
Keith: Guys, I haven’t seen you for half a month. Do you miss me?
