Chapter 188: Simply Too Fragrant

Even some tribespeople have started coming to ask whether the house‑building crew still needs people, leaving Wu Yue somewhat helplessly wry‑smiled; the tribespeople, for the sake of getting meat to eat, are really giving it their all.

She stepped forward and said: "They're now putting on the roof; I can't help with that, let's make wild‑vegetable dumplings together."

To be honest, Wu Yue really doesn't like the taste of these wild‑vegetable dumplings—smashing raw wild vegetables into a ball yields a flavor that's truly not complimentary.

But as time passed, she seemed to get used to it, and even after going a long time without eating, she started to miss it.

I have to say, it's still rather cheap…

The female seemed a bit embarrassed: "Yue, could you help me look after the little youngster? We've run out of wild vegetables at home—I'll go borrow some."

Wu Yue heard this, blinked in surprise, then smiled: "I have plenty of wild vegetables at home…"

As she spoke, she suddenly thought of something, her eyes lighting up: "We have lots of dried wild vegetables at home, and you have meat here—why don't I prepare tonight's meal?"

Having said that, she gave a mysterious smile: "The dish I make is really tasty—the wild vegetables even take on the aroma of meat."

The female exclaimed in a low voice: "Wild vegetables tasting like meat? How could that be?"

Wu Yue smiled: "I'll teach you later; after that you can make it for the youngster and your partner—they'll surely like it, and most importantly…"

She hehe‑laughed: "Just a little bit of meat is enough—like the half you have today…"

Looking at the chicken in the female's hand, Wu Yue fell silent for a moment, then somewhat embarrassed scratched her head: "What kind of wild beast is this? I've never seen one before."

The female flicked the chicken in her hand and said: "This is a two‑legged beast."

Wu Yue wiped her sweat—quite adequate, just right!

A beast with two legs is called a two‑legged beast, right?

What about a four‑legged one?

"Those two‑legged beasts in your hand are plenty for today's males to eat their fill."

The female's gaze toward Wu Yue became a bit dazed—could half a two‑legged beast really feed all the males?

Or is it just for tasting a bit?

The female doubted Wu Yue's words, but thinking that if she really learned, a piece of meat could be eaten many more times… she felt quite tempted.

Anyway, as long as food can be eaten, it's fine—compared to Yue, she wouldn't waste food.

After some self‑psyching, the female carried the little youngster and followed Wu Yue to her house to fetch that pot, then hauled some… wild vegetables that looked like they'd been sitting a long time and had wilted.

The female's expression was a bit complicated—so Yue wanted them to help together deal with these wild vegetables that were about to go bad?

The pot was made a bit larger than before, and while building the stove, Wu Yue secretly added some extra depth.

She went to Qingcao's place to get a small piece of fatty meat, tossed it into the pot to render the oil, and the aroma of animal fat instantly drifted on the wind to several tribespeople's homes.

The sound of gulping saliva was incessant.

Wu Yue carefully scooped out the oil residue and placed it on a large leaf to hand to the female: "Let these cool a bit before eating; they're hot."

Having said that, she used two wooden sticks to pick up a piece, blew on it to cool it, and brought it to the little youngster's side.

The little one went "ah" and gulped down that piece of meat; after chewing it with a "munch munch", his tiny eyes instantly lit up, looking adorably pleading.

She patted his little head, then pointed to the female standing aside and said: "Go find your mom; she still has plenty."

The female had already washed a large basket of dried wild vegetables and set it aside, then stood attentively beside Wu Yue, feeding the little youngster with "ah‑ah‑ah" sounds while watching Wu Yue prepare the food.
