Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish
Chapter 95: Good Housekeeping
Moreover, the Lin family's current conditions are not very good, and the external environment is also chaotic. Even if wild animals carry a variety of viruses, the ancients did not care about these. At most, they would put them in the pot and cook them for a longer time to kill the bacteria.
Moreover, when people are starving and have no clothes to wear, who would care about bacteria? People who are extremely hungry during a famine will even eat soil and still despise meat.
Thinking too much, really thinking too much.
Lin Xiaoyue, a person living in the apocalypse, said that if she had been given a piece of wolf meat, even if it was raw, she would have eaten it without blinking.
Besides, from a medical point of view, wolf meat is also a medicinal ingredient. Adding some seasoning and cooking it into soup can nourish the five internal organs, strengthen the intestines and stomach, treat deficiency and fatigue, and eliminate cold accumulation. It has many effects.
Even if we take a step back, the peeled wolf skin is also a real good thing. It not only keeps out moisture but also keeps you warm. Or if you have the chance and find someone who knows about it, they can make it into a wolf skin mattress, which can also keep the body dry and prevent bedsores for people sleeping on it.
As for how to skin a wolf and make a mattress, Lin Xiaoyue spread her hands and said that she didn't know how. It was good enough that she could kill wolves, but we couldn't ask her to master all kinds of martial arts.
Of course, no one else counted on her, as good steel should be used where it is needed most. Although everyone was not capable of killing wolves, they could still clean up the "battlefield".
Otherwise, why do we say "farmers are the most skillful and ingenious".
Especially Father Lin, he knows basic crafts, such as carpentry, masonry, stone wall building, earth stove, barrel hooping, bamboo basket weaving. Although his work is not so exquisite, he is self-taught. No one teaches him step by step. He just chats with his fellow villagers and neighbors in his spare time after working in the fields, and tinkers with small things, so that he can take them to the town to exchange for some money when there is a market.
Lin Xiaoyue didn't know much about it, so she just kept Xiaosi and Xiaowu company to entertain them. She took out two orange juice-flavored lollipops from her "storage bag" and gave them to the two little kids to sweeten their mouths.
The others gathered around the fire, listening to the sound of heavy rain outside the cave, while they worked in pairs to skin the wolves.
The main force of the group of Miao and Old Man Lin is Old Man Lin, who is very skilled and can skin a wolf in a short time.
Lin Zhaodi and Xiaocao had no experience and just followed Old Man Lin's method. They stumbled and struggled before they could barely peel a tube, and even cut themselves in several places in the process. Old Man Lin was so anxious that he kept shouting at them to do the cleaning and remove blood, fat and other stains, and not to waste any more time on the skins.
Lin Zhaodi and Xiaocao stuck out their tongues, smiled at each other, and simply took the skin peeled from Old Man Lin, wrapped it on a round and flat head, and carefully scraped off the remaining grease and minced meat with a knife.
Finally, rub it repeatedly with warm water to clean it, hang the clean wolf skin on a hanging rope, facing a burning fire below, and ventilate and dry it.
By the time they had cleaned up more than twenty wolf corpses, several people were exhausted, but they were still happy when they thought of so much skins and wolf meat.
After everything was cleaned up, everyone rested for a while and started to light the fire for dinner. Lin Xiaoyue went over and carried Old Man Lin back to the mat, letting him lie down and stretch his muscles.
Little Four and Little Five had been cooped up in their beds for the whole day, and except for taking a rest, they just lay there all the time. Lin Xiaoyue told the two little kids to get dressed and crawl out, and go to Old Man Lin to chat with him and relieve his boredom.
I put on a straw raincoat and ran outside the cave to check the situation. It had been raining all night since last night, and there was no sign of the rain letting up. I didn't know what the situation was outside.
Although they lived in a cave, the terrain was not high. With the way God was leaking now, she was really afraid that the place where they were staying would be flooded in a few days.
Although there is a saying in ancient poetry, "A green bamboo hat, a green raincoat, no need to go home in the slanting wind and drizzle." That is the fun of life.
But the actual situation before us was that there were strong winds, thunder and lightning, and raindrops flying all over the sky, like an upside-down Milky Way sweeping over the sky and earth, turning into thousands of sharp arrows and piercing the ground fiercely, making the ground wet, and forming large and small ponds in the low-lying areas.
Lin Xiaoyue climbed up the higher hill in front and wanted to overlook the surroundings, but unfortunately everything was hazy. Under the heavy rain from God, she could not see anything except the rain and fog.
Wiping the rain off her face, Lin Xiaoyue looked up at the sky in a daze. She didn't know which immortal had poked a hole in the sky. She sincerely hoped that it could be repaired quickly, so that the place where they were taking shelter would not become a vast ocean.
Really... please.
Lin Xiaoyue stamped her feet, sighed, and ran towards the cave in the pouring rain.
In just such a short time, the raincoat could not withstand the heavy rain. Not only was his hair wet, the rain was running down his face, and even the clothes he was wearing inside were all soaked.
After entering the cave and wiping the rain off my face, I saw Xiaocao carrying a wooden bucket to collect rain water at the entrance of the cave. Inside, Miao was talking to Lin Zhaodi with a depressed look on her face, saying that they were running out of firewood.
Lin Xiaoyue walked to the pot of boiling water, scooped a spoonful of boiled ginger water, blew away the hot steam, and drank it all in one gulp.
She said that the ancient rainwater had not been polluted by industrial factors and was very clean without filtering, and could still be drunk after boiling.
But the lack of firewood is indeed a problem.
It was very dry before, so I didn't think of preparing more firewood. When I needed it, I went into the forest and came out with a basket of firewood. But God caught me by surprise. It suddenly rained heavily and it didn't stop. The firewood I had put in the cave was not enough.
But even if the firewood is running out, all the wood outside is soaked through after a day and night of heavy rain. Even if we pick it up, it won’t burn.
Everyone in the cave obviously realized this, but what could they do? If it was going to rain, who could stop it? Besides, God could give you a heads-up in advance so you could prepare.
Well, don't think about those unrealistic things.
The fever of Xiao Si and Xiao Wu has just subsided, so we can't let the two little ones catch a cold. Besides, eating and drinking water are inseparable from firewood. If there is no firewood to burn, what else can be used as a substitute?
There are only a lighter, an igniter and two barrels of gasoline in the space. You can't use the lighter to cook...
Everyone was worried and scowling, trying to think of a solution. Seeing that his parents and sisters were worried, Xiaowu whispered, "Why not burn charcoal?"
Yes, we still have charcoal.
Miao is really good at managing the household.
