"Beishuang, come to your senses!" Yutian stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Beishuang's eyes.
"Ah?" Beishang suddenly came back to his senses, "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
"I'm fine, but you, why are you always in a daze for no reason lately?" Yutian asked.
"...Nothing." Beishang smiled bitterly.
She and Yutian stayed together to clean and soak mushrooms and fungus, and they were very skillful.
Beishang lowered his head and worked for a while, and finally couldn't help but said: "Hey, what are you going to do at the bonfire in the evening on a rainy day?"
"Bonfire party? What else can be done? I don't want to get married. I have nothing to do but eat, drink, and play!" Yutian shrugged.
"Okay~_~, I had already guessed that you would say this." The corner of Beishang's mouth twitched slightly.
She looks beautiful on a rainy day, but she never realizes it.
She and Yutian have been playing together since childhood, but Yutian mostly plays with her brother and Bai Yu, so her temperament is more straightforward.
She is currently wearing a vest and shorts made of animal skin, and her hair is short brown. Fortunately, it can be seen from her figure and face that she is a female.
"Are you... worried about something?" Yu Tian came up to her and observed her carefully.
"Hiss..." Yu Tian took a breath and exclaimed, "The bonfire party in the evening... aren't you? Do you want to get married? With whom?"
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Keep your voice down!" Beishuang raised his finger to his lips.
Yu Tian covered her mouth and looked around. There were relatively few people here. They were all doing their own things and didn't seem to notice.
"Okay, no one heard it. Tell me quickly, do you really want to get married? Who is it? Why didn't I know?"
Beishuang twisted a bit, then blushed and whispered, "Hey... that's brother Feng Xi."
"Master Feng Xi? Really or not? Are you two going to... hmm tonight?" Yu Tian couldn't help but widen his eyes.
She stretched out her two thumbs and pressed them together.
She had heard that Beishuang was pursuing Master Feng Xi before, but she had not heard of any progress. How could it happen so suddenly?
"Uh... that's not it. We are still a little short of getting married!" Beishang said angrily.
She made gestures with her thumb and index finger, and they were only a few millimeters apart.
"A little bit?" Yu Tian caught a glimpse of her guilty expression and looked suspiciously at the tiny distance between her two fingers.
"Cough cough cough..." Beishang coughed a few times and his face turned slightly red, "Not a little bit... just..."
"Huh?" Yu Tian raised his eyebrows.
"Okay, I'm still pursuing him, but he keeps avoiding me..." Beishang laughed helplessly.
"A little bit, you say? There's no progress at all, right?" Yu Tian said funnyly.
"..." Beishang wanted to refute, but this is indeed the truth.
"Then what are you going to do tonight? Confess your love again?"
"Uh...I haven't thought about it yet."
Yu Tian couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"But, I want to tell you something."
"What?"
"When brother Feng Xi left just now, he said that he would prepare delicious food for Granny Maiya in the evening."
"so what?"
"Oh, isn't Granny Mai Ya your grandma? Besides, I have such a good relationship with her, and as a good friend of mine, shouldn't you share a little bit with me then?" Beishuang blinked.
"Pfft... Hahaha... Beishuang, you", Yu Tian couldn't help but burst into laughter, "I wonder if you can have some potential?"
Yutian took a breath and continued: "You told me so much, I thought you were going to do something big tonight! But you just want to have a meal? Hahaha... Hey, why are you so ambitious?"
"Humph╯^╰, what can I do? I have confessed to him several times, but he just avoids me! I don't believe it anymore. I can't catch him? Anyway... this is the situation now, I can't catch him.
When you meet other people, you still have to have a meal, right?" Beishang said angrily.
"Haha, okay, okay, it just so happens that I also want to try the food cooked by Master Feng Xi!" Yutian patted Beishuang on the top of his head.
"Ah? You can eat, but you can't steal people from me, we agreed!" Beishang said hurriedly.
"Tsk, who wants to compete with you? Master Feng Xi is very good, but she is not my type! Let me tell you, you are not the only female in the empire who is interested in Master Feng Xi. There are a lot of them!
If you continue to be so nagging, don't blame Master Feng Xi for leaving with someone else." Yu Tian leaned into her ear and said.
"I know..." Beishang pursed his lips.
…
After returning to the stone house, Feng Xi took all the pots and bowls outside and asked Shi Ming to take out all the needed ingredients.
"Hey, how about we go to Merlin? What about?" Feng Xi suggested.
When she first arrived, she saw the large plum forest behind the house, but it had not sprouted yet.
The climate here only has two extreme seasons. If the twelve months are divided equally, and based on the flowering period of the plum blossoms here, it should be around December when she first arrived. It is obvious that the climate division here is different from that in the 22nd century.
Very different.
The plum blossoms bloom around January and February, which is supposed to indicate that spring is coming, but the temperature here is not stable, and it is actually the opposite. The high priest predicts that this snow season will last for a long time, and will be longer and colder than before. She
The weather wasn't very cold in the first month of my arrival, and I would only feel a hint of coolness at night. According to Killing Ming, the arrival of the heavy snow season will not come slowly step by step, but will come suddenly after a certain deadline.
!That’s why so many beasts and orcs died here because they didn’t have time to prepare food, etc.
It took them many years to master this pattern so that they could make some preparations in advance.
In this way, the cold season here is from December to May, or one month forward, from November to April.
And now, the plum blossoms here have just sprouted and bloomed. She noticed that the quality of the plum blossoms is a kind of apricot plum, which is a natural hybrid between plum trees and apricot trees. It has strong resistance to cold. Coupled with the climate of this other world,
It’s not surprising that it opens in the cold season.
Moreover, this plum tree can still bear fruit. When the fruit is harvested, it will be used to make plum wine!
She used to stay in the peach grove from time to time to practice or drink, but at that time the trees were bare and there was nothing interesting to see.
Now is a good time, the plum blossoms can bloom for at least a month!
"You carry all those things, I'll light the fire first." Feng Xi said, then took the things and walked into the forest.
Some of the plum blossoms in the forest are in full bloom, and some are still in the bud stage. They are pink and tender with a hint of yellow, and they look full of vitality.
Feng Xi went to the place where she had occasionally stayed, spread the animal skins on the ground, and placed the pots and bowls on a large bluestone next to it.
The bluestone was so big that she would sometimes lie down and rest for a while when she was tired. Shi Ming followed her closely, carrying various ingredients in her hands.
"You sit down first! I'm going to light a fire." Feng Xi turned around and found some dead branches, grass and leaves.
Divide them into two piles and pile them aside, put a pot on one side and place them in place.
"Give it to me!" She curled her fingers towards Shi Ming, gesturing for him to give him the ingredients.
Shi Ming handed it out and she took the basket smoothly, which contained five white and tender eggs.
The eggs were picked up by the group of children when they followed the adults up the mountain. There were quite a lot of them!
She took out the water in the space, poured it into the pot, and put the eggs in.
"Boil a boiled egg first." She said, snapping her fingers and throwing a ball of fire into the pile of firewood.
The flames started burning instantly.
"Do you want my help?" Shi Ming couldn't help but ask as he watched her busy alone.
"No, I'll just come."
She looked around and saw that there was nothing on which to cut the ingredients.
"Please hold this for me." Feng Xi handed Shi Ming a large clean leaf and placed the cleaned chicken on it.
Shi Ming was confused as to what he was doing with this thing. However, he followed Feng Xi's instructions and held it firmly with both hands.
Feng Xi put the fingers of her right hand together, and her fingertips were surrounded by a little bit of spiritual power.
She just made a few random strokes, and then the whole chicken turned into even pieces, as if it had been cut by an extremely sharp knife.
Shi Ming was startled, it turned out to be like this.
"You are too..."
"Why, do you think I can do anything?" Feng Xi said with a smile.
I conveniently cut up all the other mushroom ingredients to be used.
"It's a bit..." Shi Ming smiled helplessly.
There was no one else here, so he didn't wear a mask.
I feel like I haven't done anything since she came here, and she can solve everything no matter how big or small.
He was also quite helpless. Will he be a freeloader from now on? This word was said by Feng Xi casually before.
"Hey? Then do you want to learn a skill from me?" Feng Xi prepared chicken stewed with mushrooms in her hand and continued smoothly.
"Learn from you?" Shi Ming did not agree immediately, but asked slightly slowly.
"That's right! You only have one chance, so you have to seize it, otherwise it will be too late if you miss it." After Feng Xi finished doing it, she sat on the animal skins spread on the ground.
The pot on the side is steaming.
She looked at Shi Ming with delicate eyebrows, waiting for his answer. (To be continued)
