Chapter 27 Grilled Fish
Nishi Ichiki carried the processed fish, continued to hum his own tune in good spirits, and returned to the tribe leisurely.
I found some branches nearby, skewered the fish, then lit a campfire and prepared to start cooking.
The bonfire was burning fiercely, and the orange outer flame licked the grilled fish, making crackling sounds from time to time.
Nishi Ichiki sat by the campfire, slowly turning the grilled fish in his hand to ensure that each side was heated evenly.
The aroma of grilled fish quickly spread and drifted in the air with the breeze.
Soon, a group of children who had just returned from collecting in the wild were attracted by the tempting fragrance and gathered around.
Even though they were a little afraid of Xi Yiqi who was suddenly promoted to a wizard, they couldn't resist their natural curiosity and their rumbling stomachs.
Seeing this, Nishi Ichiki raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it will be done in a moment!"
"Sister Xiqi, can this spiny-mouthed beast really be eaten?" A soft and tender voice came from beside Xiqi.
When I heard the sound, I turned around and saw a girl who was staring at the barbecue in her hand with her head tilted and swallowing her saliva.
The little girl's name was Yan Ya, and she was the only child born a few years after the tribe migrated.
The five-year-old girl was wrapped in a piece of gray animal skin, and her big watery eyes looked at Xi Yiqi curiously. When they looked at each other, Yan Ya smiled timidly, with two dimples faintly visible, and she was very well-behaved.
Nishi Ichisu hates children, especially those naughty children from her relatives' families, but she does not feel any dislike for a well-behaved and cute little girl like Iwame.
After a while, the fish was grilled.
Remove the golden and crispy fish from the stick and place it on a wide leaf.
After washing his hands, he gently tore off a small piece of tender meat from the belly of the fish, skillfully removed the long fish bones, and then gently fed the removed fish meat to Yanya.
Iwaya took a bite of the fish, chewed it in her mouth, and a satisfied smile bloomed on her face: "Good... easy to cut!" Her voice became unclear because of the food in her mouth, but Nishi Ichisu still understood what she said.
The little girl was chewing the meat in her mouth with relish, her cheeks were puffy, like a little hamster, so cute.
When the other children heard this, their eyes widened and they stared at the grilled fish on the leaves, swallowing their saliva.
Nishi Ichiqi smiled knowingly and thought: You must be greedy.
She took three roasted fishes swiftly and placed them on the leaves. Then she gently tore open the belly of the other half of the fish and pulled out the bones inside. She said to the children, "These fishes are for you, but you must pay attention to the bones when you eat them. They are the pointy things."
"If you accidentally eat it into your stomach, it will be very painful! So you must eat slowly and be careful." As she spoke, she pointed at the fishbone with her finger so that they could see it more clearly.
He picked out some thin spines from the meat of the fish tail and asked the children to stand over and take a closer look: "The spines in the fish belly are long and big, and easy to find, but the spines in the fish tail are thin and dense, so children should not eat them."
"If you want to eat it, you must put it in your mouth and slowly suck out the thorns. After making sure there are no thorns in your mouth, swallow it slowly!"
Nishi Ichiku explained carefully that it was no small matter for a child to have a fish bone stuck in his throat, but they should be taught these things in general.
You can't not try because you are afraid of danger and live in your comfort zone all your life.
Thinking of this, she tore off a piece of meat from the fish tail and put it in her mouth, then carefully picked out the bones and showed them to the children.
The children stared at her movements with wide eyes.
Nishi Ichisu had a wicked smile on his face: "If a child doesn't listen to what I just said and swallows the thorn, the thorn will pierce his stomach! It will be very, very painful!"
After saying that, he gestured exaggeratedly at his belly with his hands.
"When the time comes, you'll have to pull those thorns out of your stomach one by one, just like my sister did." She made a distorted and painful expression, her eyes wide open and her mouth corners deliberately turned down. She looked both funny and realistic.
Several children's faces turned pale with fright.
[Childish, even children are scared]
Nishi Ichisu: Do you know what my philosophy of life is?
【What is it? 】
Nishi Ichiki: It’s none of your business, and it’s none of my business, so mind your own business.
【Ah, yes, yes, yes】
Besides, I'm still a big kid!
Nishi Ichisu felt happy when he saw the greedy and frightened children.
So this is what it felt like when my parents teased me when I was a child. It felt so good!
"Okay, don't be afraid, sit down and eat fish!" she said with a smile.
The children nodded repeatedly, sat in a row obediently, picked up the grilled fish impatiently, and began to eat it carefully.
Nishi Ichiki still broke off the part of the fish tail with more bones and put it aside, then watched them eat slowly.
You always have to watch carefully the first time.
As they ate, they laughed happily, and Nishi Ichisu looked at their satisfied expressions and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
The scene of Nishi Ichi sitting among the crowd and teaching the child to eat fish seemed particularly heartwarming in the eyes of everyone else.
Of course, some people looked here with complicated eyes...
"Sister Xiqi, the fish is so delicious." Yan Ya muttered while holding a mouthful of fish.
Although it tastes a bit fishy, the children here are used to eating meat with fishy smell, so they think it tastes very good.
Nishi Ichiki smiled and patted the child's head, saying, "Then eat slowly and don't choke."
……
Then, out of the child's sight, he quietly wiped his hands on the hide.
So cool!
The children in the tribe basically have nothing to do in the afternoon, so the adults let them play freely around the tribe.
At this time, the sun was high in the sky, it was noon, and the sunlight was warm on my body.
Nishi Ichisu thought that he hadn't washed his hair for several days, so he decided to go to the river to wash it later, and take a few children to the river to wash as well.
When the children were almost done eating, she went to find Nimei who was cooking by the stone pot.
"Xixi, the taste of these wild vegetables is really not that good, not even as good as the sour and sweet fruits." Nimei complained disappointedly.
"Although boiled wild vegetables don't taste very good, they can fill your stomach. We should not only eat meat, but also eat some vegetables appropriately. This will keep the body strong, and it will also be good for the baby in your belly." Xi Yiqi explained patiently.
After thinking for a moment, she added, "This is what Mother Nature told me last night."
Although Nimei didn’t quite understand some of the content in this sentence, she grasped the key point: Mother Nature said that eating wild vegetables is good for the baby in the belly!
Seeing that Nimi believed him, Nishi Ichisu instructed her how to process and grill the fish she had just caught, and asked her to find two people to do it.
The soil by the stream was a little damp, with smooth stones scattered around. It would be troublesome if Nimei fell.
After repeatedly telling Nimei to only be responsible for baking, Xi Yiqi glanced at the group of children surrounding her and selected a slightly older one - Ste.
She asked Ste to teach other tribesmen how to eat fish, and promised to reward him with more delicious fried fish when she came back!
Hearing that there was something more delicious, Ster drooled and agreed immediately.
"call--"
Nishi Ichisu let out a long breath.
Finally everything is arranged.
So, she led her little brothers and sisters to collect some firewood and pile it on the open space of the tribe, then they carried baskets and walked towards the stream in a mighty procession...
