Chapter 14: Ginger Seasoning

After waiting for several days, it finally came to the day of fruit picking. After all the people of the tribe gathered, everyone set out with a basket on their back, with different shapes. Some of them were decent and beautiful, but they were much more beautiful than those made by Li Feng. Now, Li Feng's knitting was very good, strong and compact, and its shape was similar to that in his impression, but there were not so many patterns.

Looking at the women's backs in the tribe, they had all kinds of patterns on them. He really thought about it. It seemed that if he gave them some ideas, they could draw inferences from one example and make more progress than the modern people!

Since salt was popularized in the tribe, it was of great use. Every time they roasted meat, they used a little bit of it. At the beginning, it was not easy to master the quantity. But after several times, with the intuition of eating, it was more and more accurate. No one had ever put too much salt on the barbecue because it would become bitter. Then it was washed again in the water.

Li Feng had a lot of salt left from the last time. However, some people were afraid that they could not eat it. They were dubious, so they picked less salt. So this time, they divided it into two groups. One group needed to collect salt, and the other group would collect fruit first.

The mountain was very big. Although they wouldn't go in very deep, there were many fruits on the edge. What's more, it was still in such a primitive society that had never destroyed trees for logging.

Li Feng and Li carried a basket respectively. Li Feng held Bao Bei in his arms and in order not to let him get in the way, he used a soft hide to tie him to his chest. Other tools were put in the basket. This time, Li Feng made up his mind to look for the crops growing in the field, not the fruits hanging on the branches. Of course, the fruits were also needed, but the crops were more important.

Li was afraid that Li Feng was tired and wanted to help hold Bao Bei. However, Li Feng was not at ease. This man was heavy handed. What could he do if Li hurt Bao Bei? He looked like he couldn't hold Bao Bei. What would he do if Bao Bei cried? Li Feng tried to forget it. Li was also Bao Bei's father. How could Li take care of the baby so carelessly?

Li loved that Li Feng was so careful with Bao Bei, which made Li very happy. The smile in his eyes never went away. Feng was so cute now.

At the foot of the mountain, all the people were scattered. They were busy living their own lives. Whoever found fruit, it would belong to them, unlike the prey they shared by the tribe. After all, hunting was very dangerous, and only together could it be safe.

Li followed Li Feng step by step. He was used to hunting, had good physical strength, but Feng was weak. He has to look after him as well. They came out early today, it was cool in the mountain forest. There were dewdrops on the grass.

Li Feng carefully held Bao Bei in one hand and used a small stick to move around looking for useful things. In summer, there were many kinds of wild vegetables. Li Feng dug out many things and threw them in the basket on Li's back along the way. Of course, some of them were dug up by Li under his command. After all, it was not easy for him to bend over with Bao Bei strapped to his chest.

Li Feng carefully plucked the grass to prevent snakes from coming out. It was still very useful to beat the grass and startle the snakes. Suddenly, Li Feng found a clump of green in the corner of a rock. Like small bamboo, it grew luxuriantly on the ground. He was very happy to see it. It should be ginger. Ginger could grow in a kitchen and sprout for a long time.

He gave Bao Bei to Li and dug it up carefully with a stone shovel. There should be many of them, they were dug out and planted. In the open space next to the cave, Li Feng had circled a large area of land with a small fence made of branches. He pinched a lot of small seedlings of sweet potato vines before, and now there was a lot of free land.

The ground outside the cave was still a lot. They could plant many things! Ruo had been following Li Feng since he knew all kinds of wonderful ideas. No, he was also digging behind Li Feng's ass, but he was not as careful as Li Feng. He had done a lot of digging!

Digging and asking, "Feng, what's the use of this? It smells bad." Ruo picked up a piece of broken ginger and put it in front of his nose, smelling the pungent smell. He almost cried.

"This is ginger. It can be used as seasoning, and put in meat to help the taste and smell; the main thing is that in winter, when people are cold, if you boil this to drink, it will warm you up, which is very effective in curing fever." Li Feng was sad that they didn't find ginger before. They had just moved here for a short time, so even if he said this, it was okay.

"Really?" Li was surprised to hear that. Even Bu looked at him. "Every winter, someone dies of fever. Does this really work?" If it was true, that was great!

"Well, as far as I know, it's useful, but not all fever can be cured." Li Feng felt that it was necessary to make it clear first, so as to avoid being treated by mistake.

"Feng!" Li suddenly pulled Li Feng's face over and gave him a kiss. He kissed Li Feng's cheek. Li Feng was totally stunned and didn't know that the stone in his hand had been removed.

His heart was full of tears. The first reaction was, fuck, my first kiss is gone... Next, you bastard Li dared to take advantage of me. I kept the first kiss for 24 years and now it is gone. Besides, you are a man... A man!

He wanted to stand up and kick him, but, as he looked at the man who was happy, holding Bao Bei in his hand, he was afraid that now he and Bu would dance to express their excitement. Li Feng suddenly felt that he could let it go. Alas, forget it, anyone who was happy would kiss. Li Feng comforted himself in his heart. Yes? Was that true? Are you sure? Well, it looks like it is...

Self deceiving himself, Li Feng forgot that he was not single now. He even had a steamed bun. What was kissing? He wiped the cheek that was kissed. Fcuk, if he wiped his face any longer, the ginger in his hand would start smoking from the heat coming off of his face.

Ruo looked at the excited Bu, and they looked at the red face, red ears and reddened Feng, squinted their eyes and smiled. This time, they were very obedient and didn't make fun of Li Feng. However, the ginger was really fuming. How could his eyes hurt and his face become so red!

Li Feng and Bu were digging with red eyes. They dug, and dug, and dug... There were many ginger roots in this area. They had dug enough to fill almost half of the baskets. The rest was left behind so that it could continue to grow. Maybe next year, there would be another big patch.

Li Feng didn't know how many years the ginger had been growing. It was pungent, but also the older and hotter the ginger. Now, there's finally another seasoning, not only salt!
