Reincarnated as her wicked older sister who has been cleansed up, she attracts a swarm of beastly hu

Chapter 7 Broth
In the early morning, sunlight streamed into the cave through a curtain made of leaves.

Before Wen Li even opened her eyes, she smelled a rich aroma of meat.

Her nose twitched, her mind gradually clearing, and she quickly recognized the smell as barbecue.

Xin Yuan was no longer in the cave; the aroma of roasted meat at the entrance must have been his doing.

Wen Li got up, stretched, and found that she felt much better.

Before going to bed yesterday, she redeemed a weight loss card with her points. After using it, she lost ten pounds and felt much lighter.

Wen Li walked out of the cave and found Xin Yuan sitting in front of it, indeed grilling meat.

However, his expression was not good at this moment, and the piece of meat in his hand was charred black.

"Good morning," Wen Li greeted her.

Xin Yuan looked at her. "I did what you told me to do yesterday, how could this happen?"

Xin Yuan was thinking about the barbecue Wen Li made last night, so he got up early this morning to put it into practice.

This was his first attempt, and it failed completely, leaving him very frustrated.

"I'll be there in a bit."

After Wen Li finished speaking, she looked around the vicinity and asked, "Is there any water?"

Xin Yuan pointed in a direction, "There."

There is a water source near Xin Yuan's cave, and he usually uses water from there.

Wen Li walked over, took out the toothpaste and toothbrush given to her by the system from her spatial storage, and quickly washed up.

Looking at herself through the water, Wen Li saw that she had indeed lost a lot of weight.

Her cheeks were no longer puffy, her eyes were much bigger, and she looked much more refreshed than yesterday.

Then, Wen Li came to Xin Yuan's side and looked at the charred pieces of meat in his hand and the pile of failed products that were almost like a small mountain.

"Get it done for me."

Wen Li picked up the last piece of meat from Xin Yuan that hadn't been wasted and started grilling it.

As for the remaining burnt pieces, they can be processed and made into a broth.

"Xin Yuan, do you have a pot?" Wen Li asked.

Xin Yuan: "A pot? Would a stone pot be alright?"

Wen Li: "Okay, let me take a look."

Xin Yuan: "What do you want to use it for?"

Wen Li: "I'll teach you one more trick."

Upon hearing Wen Li's words, Xin Yuan obediently returned to the cave to retrieve the stone pot.

This was a gift from someone who said it could be used to make delicious food, but Xin Yuan didn't know exactly how to use it, so he kept it in the cave.

This was the first time Wen Li had ever seen a stone pot from the Beast World Continent, and she found it very novel.

The stone pot is made from a huge stone with a recessed part carved out in the middle, which can be used to hold food.

The stone pot that Xin Yuan took out looked intact and could be used for cooking.

"Okay, this one is fine." Wen Li nodded in satisfaction.

Then she looked around.

There is no stove in Xinyuan, and even if there were a stone pot, it would be difficult to use.

Wen Li said, "Xin Yuan, can you do me a favor?"

When it comes to food, Xin Yuan is quite patient. He asked, "What kind of help?"

Wen Li said, "Help me find some stones and build a simple stone stove."

Xin Yuan knew what a stone stove was and that it was used for cooking; he had built one for himself before.

However, he couldn't cook, and the food he made was always terrible. In a fit of anger, Xin Yuan pushed over the stone stove, wanting to avoid seeing or hearing about it.

After hearing Wen Li's instructions, Xin Yuan nodded and began to look for stones nearby.

He was already familiar with the area and was very efficient. With his previous experience, he quickly built a stone stove.

The size is just right to fit the stone pot.

"Xin Yuan, you're quite impressive." Wen Li didn't hold back her praise.

Xin Yuan is truly remarkable for being able to build the stone stove in such a short time.

Xin Yuan didn't react much to her praise, but simply asked, "What are you going to do?" "Help me grill this. It's almost done. Just leave it to bake for a while nearby." Wen Li pointed to the piece of meat in her hand.

"it is good."

After handing the meat to Xin Yuan, Wen Li carried the stone pot onto the stone stove.

Needless to say, the stone pot was very heavy; Wen Li in the past would never have been able to lift it.

Perhaps because she had become an orc, her strength had increased considerably.

Wen Li gritted her teeth and placed the stone pot on the stone stove, then went to find some branches nearby and lit a fire.

Then, she filled a wooden bucket with some water and carried it to the stone pot.

Wen Li still doesn't understand the state of technological development in this world.

It seems you don't know much about food?
After all, the people here don't use stone pots much, but they do make wooden buckets and other daily necessities, and the craftsmanship is quite exquisite.

With the wooden bucket, Wen Li's next task became much easier.

She scooped up a spoonful of water, poured it into the stone pot, and gave it a quick rinse.

Once she was sure the stone pot was clean, she added another spoonful of clean water.

After being heated, the water in the pot began to boil.

Next, Wen Li began to process the pieces of meat that Xin Yuan had roasted until they were charred.

The skin of the meat chunks was charred black, which suggests that Xin Yuan used too much fire, but the inside was in pretty good condition.

Wen Li took out the dagger she had exchanged the night before from her spatial storage, preparing to cut out the blackened part.

Wen Li redeemed this dagger last night for one point; it's very sharp.

It didn't take her long to remove all the charred parts.

Then he cut the meat into even smaller pieces and put them into the stone pot.

This is the remedy Wen Li has come up with so far: make a simple meat soup, which is also suitable for breakfast.

Soon, the meat broth in the stone pot began to simmer.

Wen Li then added the seasonings that the system had given her the night before.

After tasting it briefly, Wen Li found it to be quite good.

It would be even better with some vegetables for seasoning.

Thinking of this, Wen Li suddenly remembered that there seemed to be dried mushrooms in Xin Yuan's cave.

She remembered that he dried some mushrooms, strung them together, and hung them in a corner of the cave.

Wen Li turned to look at Xin Yuan and found that he was also staring at her.

Xin Yuan had been staring at her for quite some time.

As he watched her fiddling with the pot, he realized that the stone pot, which he didn't know how to use, began to emit waves of fragrance.

It was a fragrance that Xin Yuan had never smelled before.

"Um, can I use the mushrooms in your cave?" Wen Li asked.

Xin Yuan nodded.

With his permission, Wen Li quickly entered the cave and took out a string of mushrooms.

After rinsing, put it into the stone pot where the meat chunks are stewing.

The aroma from the stone pot grew stronger. Wen Li glanced at it and decided to let it simmer for a few more minutes; it should be ready soon.

Since Wen Li didn't need to keep an eye on the soup-making process, she walked towards Xin Yuan.

Xin Yuan was still diligently grilling the meat; his only problem was that he couldn't figure out the heat.

Wen Li promptly reminded her, "You're standing too close."

Upon hearing this, Xin Yuan slightly withdrew his hand.

This time, they were far apart again.

"Uh... a little closer," Wen Li said.

Xin Yuan stretched forward, getting even closer.

Wen Li couldn't stand it, so she subconsciously reached out and grabbed Xin Yuan's wrist.
