After eating roast lamb, everyone had a good sleep.
Fox Jiao crawled out in the middle of the night to find some leftover meat, but found that all the bones had been chewed clean. I don't know who had nothing to do, and arranged the sheep bones according to the structure of the sheep.
Hu Jiao looked at the sheep skeleton and shed bitter tears.
This is mutton. Next time I want to eat mutton, I don’t know when it will be!
Getting up early the next day, Aunt Hu and Hu Yue went to the river to clean the sheepskins.
It's hard to catch an animal as big as a sheep nowadays, and it's even more rare to find one with this kind of intact fur.
Last night, the tiger bosses were very careful when skinning the sheep, for fear of tearing the sheepskin a little.
With this skin, you can make animal skin skirts for the cubs.
Hushan may transform at any time. Although Hu Ling'er is still small, they don't know when they will catch such a large animal next time, so they have to be prepared.
Aunt Sheep happened to be catching fish in the river.
Although the tribe is surrounded by water and there are many fish in the water, the orcs are not used to eating fish in the water.
The fish meat is not only fishy, but also has many thorns, which can pierce the throat.
Some fish are also highly poisonous. In the past, an orc's whole family was poisoned for eating fish, so few orcs would eat such things.
Aunt Sheep had already caught two fish. She first smashed the fish heads with stones so that the fish would not jump around.
Then he strung the fish's gills with a piece of grass and hung it on his waist.
Aunt Sheep was the only one left in the house. She saw Aunt Tiger and others cleaning the sheepskins, with envious eyes.
The wool is so white and soft.
She looked at the animal skin skirt she was wearing, and saw that it had been worn to the point where her original appearance was no longer visible.
"You caught such a complete sheepskin yourself!" Aunt Sheep opened her mouth, revealing her chipped front teeth.
"Yes!" Mrs. Hu replied while working.
When Aunt Sheep entered the tribe, she said that her partner and children were killed by stray orcs.
She has lived alone until now, living by eating fish from the river.
Mrs. Tiger admires the fact that she can eat fish for such a long time without being poisoned.
Aunt Tiger sympathized with Aunt Sheep's plight and occasionally gave her some food. However, the tiger family's life had not been good in the past two years, and she could not care about other orcs at all.
"If this sheepskin is made into a leather skirt, it will definitely look very good!" Aunt Sheep's eyes can hardly be separated from this sheepskin.
"My skirt looked so good back then," she recalled.
Aunt Tiger followed her words and looked at the animal skin skirt she was wearing. The hair on it was bald and the color was so dark that it was impossible to imagine that it turned out to be a pure white animal skin skirt.
"That was given to me by my partner. After we mated for the first time, he went out to catch a sheep and made me a skirt from the sheepskin."
Aunt Sheep was immersed in her beautiful memories.
"Is the fish you are eating safe?" Mrs. Tiger looked at the fish in her hand and couldn't help but ask.
"It's delicious, it's delicious." When Aunt Sheep heard Aunt Tiger ask, she took off the grass ring from her waist and handed it forward: "Would you like to try it?"
Mrs. Tiger shook her head.
Aunt Sheep continued: "Give it to your granddaughter and feed it to the great witch."
Mrs. Tiger quickly waved her hand: "Don't talk nonsense. The daughter of the patriarch's family is the great witch, but my little cub is not."
"Yes!" Aunt Sheep insisted.
"No!" Mrs. Tiger didn't give in.
"yes!"
"no!"
"But I won't tell others." Aunt Yang lowered her voice with a mysterious expression on her face.
Seeing that she couldn't make sense, Mrs. Hu stopped arguing. She quickly finished her work with Hu Yue and went home with the sheepskin.
If you want to make clothing from animal skins, you need to loosen the skins and then dry them in the shade.
Aunt Tiger was already very good at doing these things, and she quickly finished the work and hung the sheepskins to dry in the cave.
Hu Jiao and Lu Caixia have already prepared breakfast.
In the past, their breakfast was a meal of wild fruits, but after roasting the lamb yesterday, there were still sheep's offal left to eat, so this morning they could eat soup made from the offal.
Lu Caixia chopped the internal organs and cooked them together with the chopped apples. She also put some salt paste in them.
Hujiao was responsible for adding firewood to the bottom of the stone pot.
Hu Ling'er looked at it curiously and licked her little paws from time to time. She really couldn't imagine what this pot of dark food would taste like.
After Tiger Lao San got up, he went out to herd the cows.
The grass at the entrance of the cave had been almost eaten by the cattle, and he had to find denser and tender grass for the cattle.
Tiger Boss and Tiger Brother went to the mountain to chop wood.
The last time we went to the witch doctor Yuantai's house, Mrs. Tiger took a fancy to the house of Yuantai's family and said that a house made of wood like that was indeed brighter. Their family would also build a house like that for the cows to live in!
Winter will come in a few months, and there will be heavy and thick snow at that time. Mrs. Tiger said she was afraid that the cows would be cold by then.
Tiger Boss and Tiger Boss felt that what Mom said was right.
The sacred cow is a gift from the beast god, and they must take good care of the cow.
When everyone returned home, Lu Caixia knocked on the stone bowl in her hand and shouted, "It's time to eat."
Only then did Hu Ling'er realize that his six brothers had appeared out of nowhere.
Their bodies were covered with dew and there were leaves hanging on their heads, but their eyes were sparkling.
"There must be some fun place!" Hu Ling'er thought to herself.
She really wanted to grow up quickly so that she could go out and play with her brothers.
"Did you dig any salt mud today?" Madam Tiger asked as she looked at the cubs.
"Well, I dug it." Hufu held up the leaves in his hands. There was a ball of mud wrapped in the huge leaves.
"Yes!" Mrs. Hu nodded: "This salt mud will be enough to eat for a while after drying, but don't go there recently."
"good!"
Several little Zaizai went to the river to wash their hands and came back to have dinner with their elders.
This is the first time Hu Linger has seen them eat other food besides barbecued meat and wild fruits.
The orcs use spoons to drink soup from stone bowls, and they also use chopsticks to pick out the offal and apples in the bowls and eat them.
Only Hu Ling'er and Hu Shan can only eat food with their own tongues because they haven't transformed yet.
In front of Hu Ling'er was a bowl of milk, and in front of Hu Shan was a bowl of offal soup.
Everyone ate deliciously.
Especially Hu Jiao, she was so greedy since she didn't eat any meat yesterday. When the offal soup was boiling in the pot, she couldn't stop drooling.
For a moment, the only sounds left in the cave were the slurping of soup and the licking of food with tongues.
"Aunt Tiger, are you at home?"
"Aunt Tiger, are you at home?"
Before the meal was finished, several shouts came from outside the cave.
Mrs. Hu drank the last mouthful of soup in the bowl, wiped her mouth, and walked out.
