When Li Feng was a kid, he used to think that lotus roots grew in dry land. Because that leaf really looked like a green and waterproof leaf. It was just like a lotus leaf. Was it just a little longer, a little smaller, growing by the ditch on the ground? He remembered another time when he went to an interview, there was just a farm where they planted some seeds.
Beside the ditch in front of the door, he started to find a topic, so he pointed to the green one at the door. "Auntie, your family also grows this kind of lotus root in the dry land. I like to eat lotus root very much. Do you bring us delicious food about lotus roots today?"
At that time, he also thought that his beginning was really good, how close to life, he didn't expect that just finished, all the villagers around him were smiling. He was still confused. He didn't know what happened. Then a big man came up and patted him on the shoulder. "Young man, you are really talented. This is taro. It's not a lotus root growing in the dry land." While talking, he laughed. "Lotus roots can't grow on dry land. "
Li Feng was embarrassed after hearing this. Now, he lost his face and lost his hair. However, after this incident, he had a deep complaint about taro. He remembered it better. No, he recognized it at a glance.
This taro was also a good thing. It was almost like sweet potato and was not only delicious, but also had many ways to eat. What's more, it could be stored for winter. It was a good grain reserve!
Ruo was excited to see that Li Feng's eyes were shining again. This guy was now experienced. It must be that Li Feng had found something good again. Following his eyes, it was something green again. Was it delicious too?
Li was a little uneasy, Li Feng had enough to eat and hoped they were okay. They went straight to the river to find Feng. He was just about to go there when he saw Ruo running over. Li was scared and thought something was wrong. He wanted to run there. But Ruo stopped him. "It's ok. I'm just going to grab a spade and a basket. Feng found something good again." Ruo's voice was very loud. But only Li and Bu heard.
Li and Bu nodded, carrying baskets on their backs and taking the one Li Feng carried himself in the past. People in the tribe knew that they were all together. They thought that they were going to the river to let Feng be intimate with his husband, and they knew each other well and didn't bother.
Li Feng was squatting on the ground, digging something up with a small stone. Li handed over the stone shovel in his hand. Li Feng raised his head and picked it up. He was excited and flushed (maybe shy just now). The half long hair was pasted on his face. Li looked at the pink and tender Li Feng tenderly. He raised his hand and moved some strands of his hair on his face behind his ears. Feng's red ears were now even redder. Li smiled when he saw it. He had a warm smile on his beautiful face. His eyes were gentle and focused on Li Feng, who did not raise his head and tried to dig a hole. That smile was so charming. Unfortunately, Li Feng, who was working hard, did not see it.
Li held the baby to Li Feng and squatted down to dig. Li Feng's strength was relatively small. Now his body was relatively weak. He was tired after working for a while. Li Feng was really tired. He just held the baby and watched Li and Bu dig.
There were quite a lot of taros here, and now it was really the time when taros were mature, so all the ones dug out were big, the big ones were even the size of a grown man's fist. The small ones were almost as big as Bao Bei's fist. All of them couldn't be packed in one basket. Looking at both sides of the long river bank, Li Feng was sure there were a lot, at least a few kilograms in total. After all, the river bank was not so long.
Li Feng wanted to call all the people here, teach them to recognize and dig. Then these things can support them for a long time, but not now, until next time. He was also selfish. Bao Bei was still small. There was little food in his family. He has to prepare for the winter. He has to prepare enough food. He couldn't and didn't want to make Li and Bao Bei hungry, especially when he couldn't guarantee that he wasn't hungry, so be selfish!
The baby in Li Feng's arms hadn't slept yet. Li Feng stretched out a finger and put it into Bao Bei's small hand. It was tightly grasped. Bao Bei's mouth was tender and soft as he spit out bubbles. Bao Bei's cheeks were bulging. Don't mention how cute he was! Li Feng's heart became soft when his fingers were grasped by his small hands. This was his baby, his own baby!
Li looked back at Li Feng, who was holding Bao Bei's face with 'maternal brilliance,' and slightly bent his mouth. Li Feng seemed to sense it. Looking up, he really looked at Li tenderly. He couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart. What's that feeling? It was crisp and numb. He quickly turned his eyes away, lowered his head and continued to tease Bao Bei.
Why did he want to see the other smile so much? Why did it make him feel better? With such an angry face, he could still smile so brilliantly
Li only saw Li Feng when he was shy. Now he laughed, turned around and continued to work. Feng was still shy and cute. The four people dug up taros by the river in the afternoon, and the people in the tribe didn't ask. After all, it was normal for them to pick enough taros, not to mention two pairs of small ones. This was even more normal. So until the clan elder told them to go back, Li Feng held Bao Bei and carried a basket with ginger and some fruits. Li carried another basket full of taro. It seemed that it would take several more trips. Fortunately, the spot was not far from the tribe. It would be faster if the four of them would go again.
They went a few more times, and when they had enough for the winter, they would tell the people in the tribe, and share the rest!
Back in the cave, Li Feng took a little rest and began to prepare dinner. Now Bu and Ruo were very conscious of his cooking skills and stayed to wait for Li Feng to cook. Li Feng directed them to help clean the pots and pans, and then get clean water. He could use it later.
Li Feng put the meat and the cut taro and ginger on the feeding concave stone plate and fried until golden, then put the meat into the pot and boil it, stew it for seven or eight minutes, then put the taro in and stewed it until the meat and taro were cooked and tender, and then add salt. There was no other seasoning here, so it was only flavored naturally.
After stewing, taro will make the soup thicker, and taro was easy to absorb the soup with other ingredients. So, now the broth was very thick, and there was no fishy smell. It looked like fish soup, and smelled very fragrant. The reaction of Li and the others told the story.
In addition, he cooked some taro by itself. There was no sugar here, so he could only eat it like this. Fortunately, it was very natural. The tender and soft taro cooked tasted light, but it was also very fragrant. It was more hunger resistant, but he couldn't eat too much, otherwise it was easy to bulge.
Needless to say, it had been eaten up again. It was not twice. After all, in the primitive society where there was no seasoning, no grains and rice, only meat and fruit. Even people who were a little good at cooking can eat delicious food. What's more, Li Feng's technology belonged to that kind of the good. After all, bachelors had to cook their own meals. At the same time, they were also journals entries for the food magazine, which was a little bit of a craft.
