"Eh?" Zhang Liu silently looked at the bird eggs he had taken to the side of the shelter, then looked at the two sisters, then scratched his head and said, "Are you guys moved to tears because I got hurt by taking a few eggs?"

If that was the case, then he would be really embarrassed.

I was injured just to get some bird eggs to celebrate someone's birthday, not to play the victim to gain sympathy or something...

Hearing Zhang Liu's straight man remarks, Xiang Wanying rolled her eyes helplessly in her heart.

And Gu Qingrou also sighed slightly...

From Zhang Liu's straight male perspective, she once again confirmed that when she gives her first time in the future, she will definitely take the initiative to sit down...

"No!" Qin Ruoshuang's voice was already heavily nasal. She denied it while crying, "Today is my birthday! I won't cry!"

Qin Ruoyan, whose eyes also turned red, looked at the boy in front of her with a complicated expression, then silently pulled her sister aside and spoke in a low voice.

She decided to repay Zhang Liu in a way that only two sisters could!

The other girls looked at each other and then started working on their own.

But his eyes occasionally glanced at Qin Ruoyan who was whispering and Qin Ruoshuang who was nodding continuously, and they were full of envy.

Same idea as Anya.

They also planned to find time to talk to Zhang Liu alone about his birthday.

Zhang Liu, who couldn't understand how much favor his birthday gift had gained among the girls, had already started knocking two pieces of pyrite against each other.

"Da da da da da da..."

Along with the knocking sound, sparks continued to burst slightly onto the fluffy and dry old man's beard, and soon it began to smolder. The old man's beard was picked up and blown carefully.

With the improvement of fire-making technology, it only took Zhang Liu more than ten minutes to light the bonfire. Then he built a clay stove next to the bonfire with mud that was suitable for placing clay plates.

We are currently waiting for the flame to harden the clay on the earthen stove so that we can proceed to the next step of cooking dinner.

Yiliu 8 7 Yiliu Wife Yiliu

Section 1#Volume 2 A stable food source is the first step to development: Chapter 290 Anyway, my future husband is to be shared...

Next to Zhang Liu, the taro had been peeled, cut into small pieces and placed on clean palm leaves.

Next to the taro was some rabbit meat cut into small pieces.

This is the preparation for taro soup for dinner.

The girls also washed the 17 bird eggs with spring water and placed them in a small clay pot filled with water to wait for stewing.

If nothing goes wrong, the order of dinner tonight will most likely be to eat a bird's egg first, and then eat rabbit meat and taro soup with taro that can be cooked in the fire.

It can be considered as meat, eggs, and all the ingredients are complete.

"Zhang Liu, Ruoshuang and I just discussed this." Just as Zhang Liu was about to start cooking the eggs, Qin Ruoyan walked up to him and said softly, "We plan to take out six of the eggs and share them among everyone."

"How do we divide the six eggs?" Zhang Liu asked as he looked at the bird eggs that had sunk to the bottom of the small clay basin.

His face was full of confusion.

"Everyone will get two. Ruoshuang and I will also get two. Then we'll give you half..."

Qin Ruoyan whispered her plan.

Blinking in confusion, Zhang Liu took a while to sort out what the other party meant.

Basically, the two sisters would eat one and a half each, and then she and the other girl would eat two each, and the second one for me would be the half that the two sisters saved.

After hearing Qin Ruoyan's words, several girls who were planning to find time to tell Zhang Liu about their birthdays suddenly became anxious.

"It's okay, Qin Ruoyan. These eggs were originally gifts from Zhang Liu to you and Qin Ruoshuang. How can you share them with us?"

Xiang Wanying was the first to jump out. She was very possessive by nature and just wanted to share the man with the eldest lady, so she quickly spoke up to dissuade them.

I don’t want to give away birthday gifts that I might get in the future!

After hearing the words of her head maid, Xiang Lingying nodded subconsciously, indicating that she had the same idea.

"Yes, yes!" Anya nodded quickly and said, "This is Zhang Liu's birthday gift to you. How can I accept it!"

For the same reason as Xiang Wanying, she also really didn't want her birthday present to be divided up.

Su Yan and Lan Yueting bit their lips silently, looked at each other, but stopped talking.

They don't take sharing gifts too seriously.

But at this moment, the two of them suddenly felt the estrangement that was gradually forming...

Because of the eye contact just now, they didn't understand what each other wanted, but they just happened to reach a tacit understanding of "not talking together".

Find some time to chat with Yanyan (Sister Ting)!

After looking at each other again, Lan Yueting and Su Yan had the same thought at the same time.

Gu Qingrou stood by without saying a word, just smiling as she watched everyone discussing the distribution of gifts.

For her, it was already very good to receive Zhang Liu's eggs.

As for sharing, Gu Qingrou had no objection at all. In the future, she would find someone else to share Zhang Liu's things anyway!

Everyone's opinions made Qin Ruoyan speechless.

Her purpose of wanting to divide the eggs was to prevent other girls from having too much opinions about herself and her sister.

Qin Ruoyan felt a little worried when Xiang Wanying and the others spoke up.

Could it be that these guys have already memorized their names in their little notebooks?

"Can we make it into egg drop soup?" Qin Ruoshuang whispered beside Qin Ruoyan, "That way, everyone can eat it, just like a birthday cake."

"Egg drop soup? Do you mean put it in the taro soup?" Zhang Liu asked immediately after hearing this.

He frowned slightly. To be honest, he was not sure whether taro and bird eggs could be combined...

"Hmm... Then I suggest scrambling eggs with young wild ginseng leaves!"

After hearing my sister make this suggestion.

Qin Ruoyan found wild ginseng nearby while collecting firewood, and brought it back along with the soil as vegetables for the next few days. Suddenly, she had a new idea.

"Scrambled eggs?"

Xiang Wanying and her eldest daughter looked at each other, both of them were a little confused.

After all, as the name suggests, this thing needs oil, right?

"How to fry eggs without oil?"

Anya raised her hand and asked directly.

After Qin Ruoshuang used birthday cake as a comparison, the three of them could no longer refuse the invitation to share the eggs.

So I started to become curious about cooking methods.

"Add a little water and stir quickly!" Qin Ruoyan expressed her thoughts: "In fact, it is a concentrated version of egg drop soup. As long as the stirring speed is fast enough, it will not stick to the pot, so this should be okay, right?"

She referred to the oil-free frying method of her home non-stick pan.

"Um... I still suggest using wild ginseng leaves and bird eggs to make egg drop soup!" Zhang Liu, who had a lot of life experience, immediately felt that the scrambled egg method mentioned by the other party was unreliable, so he explained: "Qin Ruoyan's method of adding water to scrambled eggs probably requires a non-stick pan. Clay pots heat up slowly and dissipate heat slowly, so it is difficult to fry things. If you don't add oil, it will burn quickly."

"All right……"

After hearing Zhang Liu's words, Qin Ruoyan, who originally thought she had come up with a brilliant idea, suddenly became depressed.

She pouted slightly, not feeling upset that her opinion was rejected by Zhang Liu.

Instead, I was unhappy that I had not considered the difference between non-stick pans and clay pans.

Qin Ruoyan was very afraid that Zhang Liu would think she was a careless woman.

After the menu was decided, Zhang Liu personally began preparing for dinner.

He placed the clay pot with eleven bird eggs on the earthen stove to heat it up, then he took out a notebook from his backpack and said, "Well, why don't you tell me your birthday, so that when your birthday comes, I can think of ways to prepare some birthday gifts for you."

His words surprised all the girls. No one had expected that they would find time to secretly tell each other the birthday time.

Now the other party actually plans to record in batches directly.

For a moment, everyone looked at each other, and none of them was embarrassed to be the first to speak, nor did they want anyone to speak before them.

Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang, who had already received birthday gifts, also asked a question that they were very concerned about: "Zhang Liu, how did you know our birthdays?"

The other girls were also very interested in this question. They had no idea how he and Zhang Liu knew the birthdays of Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang.

"Sister Wanying told me." Zhang Liu looked at Xiang Wanying who was looking surprised, and then explained, "When we were chopping down the pine tree, you told me that you were going to the Qin family to deliver a birthday present. Plus, Qin Ruoyan remembered Christmas wrong before, so I feel like today should be the birthday of both Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang!"

"So that's how it is." Xiang Wanying herself had forgotten what she said at that time.

But she also nodded, secretly surprised at the other party's perception ability.

Section 1#Volume 2 A stable food source is the first step to development: Chapter 291 Do you want to wash your feet? (Monthly ticket reward plus chapter 13)

"Zhang Liu, thank you!" Qin Ruoyan bit her lip slightly, then looked at the boy in front of her and said seriously: "This is the best birthday present I have ever received."

"Me too!" Beside her, Qin Ruoshuang nodded vigorously: "This is also the best birthday present I have ever received!"

Xiang Wanying sat nearby and watched this scene. She was moved, but there was also a bit of helplessness in her eyes.

After all, as the head maid, it is her responsibility to give birthday gifts and maintain social interactions every year.

As a result, Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang now felt like they were being slapped in the face.

"Um, Zhang Liu, aren't you going to record everyone's birthday? Mine is January 1st!" Anya was sitting next to them. At this moment, she couldn't hold back her excitement. Seeing that there was a gap between the conversations, Anya immediately said, "You have to remember it!"

After she finished saying this, all the girls turned their heads silently and looked over here, with murderous malice in their eyes.

Even though she is a social cow, Anya feels a little uncomfortable at this moment.

She twisted her little butt, lowered her head, and assumed the standard ostrich defensive posture.

"Okay! I understand! I will find a way to prepare a gift for you." Zhang Liu nodded, then picked up a pen and wrote down the words Anya (January 1) in his notebook.

"My date is June 29th."

"I am November 12th."

"I'm……"

After Lan Yueting, the last person, reported her birthday, Zhang Liu closed his notebook and said to everyone with a smile, "Okay, I'll remember that and prepare birthday presents for you later."

He thought that since he had already received Christmas gifts from the girls, he should give them birthday gifts in return.

After Zhang Liu finished saying this, he was about to turn around to check the bird eggs on the stove next to him, but he found that the eight girls were looking at him very seriously, but there seemed some confusion in their eyes.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Zhang Liu subconsciously asked, sensing something was wrong: "Did you write the wrong birthday?"

Considering that wealthy people may celebrate their birthdays twice, one according to the lunar calendar and one according to the solar calendar.

So he added, "A person can only have one birthday!"

"Zhang Liu, when's your birthday?" Gu Qingrou, who reported that June 29th was her birthday, took the initiative to ask.

"Mine? I don't celebrate my birthday." Shaking his head, Zhang Liu explained, "I'm an orphan, so I don't have an exact birthday. My parents used to pick June 29th, but later on, they didn't know, so we just stopped celebrating it."

"June 29th..." Mumbling the date which was the same as her birthday, Gu Qingrou whispered, "If you don't mind, why don't you spend the day with me in the future!"

"Huh?" Zhang Liu was slightly stunned when he heard Gu Qingrou's words.

Then, under the nervous gaze of the other seven girls, he nodded and said, "That's fine, we'll spend the time together then."

After saying that, Zhang Liu turned around and began to tinker with the boiling clay pot of bird eggs.

According to his idea, it only takes about ten minutes to make boiled eggs at home.

The time spent on registering the birthday just now was definitely more than ten minutes, so the bird eggs, which are smaller than chicken eggs, must have been fully cooked.

What we need to do now is to put them in cold water to prevent the waste of eggshell protein when peeling.

Zhang Liu took a sheepskin bag and scooped a full bag of water from the pool, then began to put the bird eggs one by one into the cold water to cool them down.

As for the water after boiling the eggs, he poured it all out, then replaced it with clean water, added taro and rabbit legs and started stewing.

Cooking next to the pool is so capricious.

If this happened at the bamboo house at the foot of the mountain on the east side, Zhang Liu would really not be willing to give up a basin of water.

As the flames licked the already dark bottom of the clay basin, the gurgling sound of bubbles gradually became more obvious, even louder than the sound of the waterfall constantly falling by the ears.
