Without saying a word, he swung his sword to disembowel the hare, washed it clean, and took a few branches to string the washed rabbits on the branches before handing them to Shen Ning.
Shen Ning took it, pursed her lips in the direction of the tent, and said, "Go pick up some more firewood, make a fire, and let's roast game."
"good."
Chu Shaoyang agreed happily and turned around to leave when Shen Ning said again: "Hey, wait a minute, do you know what kind of firewood you want to pick up?"
He suddenly turned around and asked curiously: "Is there anything else you should pay attention to?"
Shen Ning knew as soon as she heard that he didn't understand at all, and said: "Pick up those dry leaves and dead branches so that they can be burned easily."
Chu Shaoyang nodded, turned and left. After a while, he picked up a pile of dry branches and lit a fire between the two tents.
Shen Ning put the rabbit meat on the fire and roasted it. The fire was blazing, and her pretty face turned red. Her dark eyes were spinning around at the rabbit bones on the shelf.
Chu Shaoyang watched intently, and suddenly heard her ask himself without raising her head:
"Hey, have you brought those seasonings of oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar?"
He shook his head: "What are you doing with those?"
Shen Ning couldn't help but sigh, clapped her hands and stood up, and said, "You stay here and remember to turn the branches frequently to avoid always being roasted in one place and easily scorched."
Chu Shaoyang nodded and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Of course I'm going to look over there to see if there's anything that can make the rabbit meat taste better. Otherwise, the meat has no salty taste and I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it in one bite."
He said without thinking, "I'll go with you to find it. I don't trust you if you go alone."
He turned to the two maids and said, "You guys are here to watch the barbecue."
"Yes, Master." The two maids hurriedly bowed and agreed.
Shen Ning ignored him and looked around while walking.
"Ning'er, what are you looking for? I checked just now. There is no one within ten miles of here. I'm afraid I can't find a place where I can borrow oil, salt, soy sauce, and wax." Chu Shaoyang said.
"Of course I know there is no one there, I'm not looking for that one, ah, I found it!"
Her eyes lit up and she saw a strange grass growing under a big tree. She immediately walked over quickly, pulled out one, put it under her nose and smelled it. She couldn't help but smile on her face.
"That's it!" She brought the grass to Chu Shaoyang and said, "Smell it."
Chu Shaoyang took a deep sniff and only smelled a pungent and spicy smell. He was caught off guard and sneezed several times in succession.
"What is this thing that tastes so strange?"
Shen Ning smiled and said: "This is called orchid grass. It smells pungent, but when you pound it and apply it on rabbit meat and bake it, it has a different flavor."
She picked a large handful of orchid grass, returned to the fire happily, pounded the orchid grass into a paste, and spread it evenly on the rabbit meat.
The fire was blazing, and after a while, a special aroma came out.
Suddenly, a chirping sound sounded.
Shen Ning looked around and saw an embarrassed look on Chu Shaoyang's face. He turned away and did not dare to meet his eyes. Obviously, the disappointing cry just now came from his stomach.
The two maids did not dare to laugh out loud, so they had no choice but to lower their heads and curl up the corners of their mouths.
Shen Ning also tried hard to hold back her laughter.
