There are still more than 20 kilograms of March wheat seeds cultivated in the safety zone. When she goes to the northwest, she plans to try planting them. Although this kind of wheat has an average taste, it has a large yield and a short growth cycle.
In the house, Qi Yuan and Wu Pei were digging out the charcoal from the fire pit. They also had to shovel out the plant ashes and mix them with animal manure, which could be spread directly into the vegetable patch.
The snow has stopped in the past two days, and there is sunshine every day, but the temperature is still 67 degrees and has not dropped.
Because of the low temperature, the clothes cannot be washed. The clothes will freeze quickly after washing. The bathtub has been prepared and polished very smooth. You can take it with you when you leave.
Bone soup is simmering in the large iron pot in the kitchen, and you can smell the aroma outside the yard. After the snow stops, everyone often rides up to the mountains to hunt and cut firewood. However, there are less prey in the nearby mountains and forests. If you are lucky, you can catch wild boars. Usually
Under the circumstances, they all come back empty-handed.
After the sun came out, some ducks appeared in the sky. They were all white and very big. They were snow ducks that could live in temperatures as low as sixty or seventy degrees below zero. Ye Fu planned to capture a few alive and asked Jiang Run to go with him.
Make traps.
There is broken rice in the trap. When the ducks fly in, as long as they step on the wooden board inside the trap, the net above will fall down and tighten, trapping the ducks firmly in the net.
Early the next morning, Jiang Run went out to check the results. When he came back, he was carrying four snow ducks, and the ducks were screaming "quack quack".
"There seems to be no space left in the yard to raise ducks."
"It's okay. You can put it in the sheepfold and raise it with the sheep. After training it, they will fly out to find food on their own and fly back by themselves at night."
Jiang Rong was very confident in his taming ability, but he didn't know how he trained it. Within a day, the ducks became very docile. Wherever Jiang Rong went, the ducks would follow him, twisting and turning.
, extremely cute.
The trap outside has not been dismantled. Snow ducks are fooled every day because of their greed. Snow duck feathers are very warm and thick, and are the best material for making down jacket fillings. When we were in the safe zone, everyone raised ducks. Everyone raised ducks.
All have some experience.
"Ye Fu, the duck has laid eggs."
Fang Wei and Wenwen each ran into the house with a duck egg. They handed the warm duck egg to Ye Fu. Ye Fu touched it and saw that the snow duck egg was almost as big as three chicken eggs and was green in color.
"Sister Xiaoye, you can hatch duck eggs."
"Save them first, and then hatch them together when you have thirty."
"I just mentioned a snow duck and estimated its weight. It should weigh more than ten kilograms. It's too heavy. Do you think we can take them with us when we leave?"
Previously, a snow duck was seriously injured and was stewed by Ye Fu. The snow duck was more delicious than ordinary ducks. The meat was very good and not bad at all.
"It should be okay, but just bring two."
Now everyone has more and more possessions, and the number of argali sheep has exceeded 70.
"The sun has come out, and the snow will probably melt in two months."
"Although the sun is out, the temperature has not changed much, and the wind is very strong. Even if the snow stops, it is still dangerous to go on the road."
Ye Fu was not in a hurry, her sixth sense told her that now was not the best time to set off.
In the afternoon, the man who went out to cut firewood came back on horseback. Ye Fu put on a cold-proof and warm hat and went to the greenhouse to check the temperature inside. She pulled out another bunch of vegetables and slowly returned to the small courtyard.
A beef leg was roasting in the oven, and the aroma was already coming out. Ye Fu took out a bag of cornmeal from the container and planned to steam a pot of steamed buns.
Nowadays, everyone basically only eats pasta or rice once a week. In order to relieve fatigue, Ye Fu plans to make another kelp soup.
Eating meat every day made her gain a lot of weight.
Fang Wei saw that she wanted to cook, so he immediately came over to work, boiling snow water, drying firewood, and washing pots. The two of them were busy in an orderly manner.
The people who went out to chop branches also came back, and Ye Fu saw that Jiang Run was still holding two half-dead snow ducks in his hands.
"The sun is so dazzling that there is no temperature at all. Instead, it feels even colder." Qi Yuan shook off the snow from his hat, squatted by the fire pit and started to warm himself by the fire. Others gathered around him.
Liu Zhang looked outside and said, "It is the coldest when the snow melts. It is estimated that the snow will start to melt in a while."
Wan Tao took out the beef leg, brushed a layer of oil on it, and continued to put it back to simmer.
"A sneeze."
"I feel like I'm going to catch a cold. Everyone, please stay away from me and don't get infected, Ah Sneeze."
As soon as Fang Ming finished speaking, the person sitting next to him moved away immediately. Fang Wei took out a box of cold medicine, which Ye Fu and Jiang Run brought back when they went to Country W last time. She made Fang Ming a cup of granules.
He sniffed and continued to sneeze.
"Jiang Run killed these two ducks with stones. Do you want to eat them tonight?"
Ye Fu shook his head, "Let's eat beef leg tonight, prepare the duck, and make duck soup tomorrow."
The wowotou has been kneaded, placed in the steamer, and placed directly on the fire pit to steam over high heat.
Add the roasted firewood, and after 20 minutes, the aroma of steamed buns comes out from the round hole in the steamer lid.
Fang Wei cooked a vegetable, set the table, took out the beef leg and placed it in the middle, and had dinner.
"Who doesn't have a knife?"
"My dagger is broken."
Liu Zhang brought a small dagger to Wu Pei, and everyone had already begun to eat. They used daggers or knives to cut off the meat from the beef leg and eat it with steamed buns.
"You still have to eat rice and pasta. If you only eat meat, no matter how delicious it is, you will get tired of it. Only by eating rice and pasta can you have strength and make you hungry."
The steamed buns were so sweet that Wenwen could eat three of them, and everyone started talking about their trip to the mountains today.
"Except for the occasional snow duck or two, there is no other prey."
"I must be hiding in the cave. I'll come out when the snow melts."
"If there's no prey, just chop wood and branches. Anyway, we're not short of meat now, so there's no need to take this risk."
Everyone had their own reasons. Ye Fu lowered her head to eat. After eating, she poured a cup of hot water and returned to the house. The job of washing dishes was not hers.
After cleaning the nest of the bean sprouts and the others, and looking for broken rice and water, Ye Fu lay down on the bed.
Next door, Fang Wei was still learning to crochet a sweater. Maybe she failed again, and she kept sighing.
When Jiang Run entered the house, Ye Fu stared at the roof in a daze.
Jiang Run didn't say anything, and lay down with her in a daze. The wind was howling outside, and Ye Fu was a little drowsy.
Wan Tao was talking outside. He suggested making several carriage boxes out of wood so that when leaving, there would be no need to ride on the horse's back.
Ye Fu thinks what he said makes sense.
"The stove in the toilet went out. I had to add firewood quickly. My butt almost froze." Qi Yuan squeezed his neck and rushed out of the toilet.
