Chapter 126 Copper Coins
Xuyun pointed to the window outside and said, "I climbed in directly. You guys aren't that high up here."
"You should come in through the main gate next time." Lin Sangyi frowned slightly. She was a little afraid of Xuyun now.
"I'll pay attention next time. By the way, are there a lot of orcs in Chidori Castle you mentioned?"
Qi Yu answered him directly without any hesitation: "Of course, Chidori City is the most lively place. No matter it is stray beasts or orcs in the tribe, they will all go there."
Xuyun seemed to be thinking about something. He raised his hand and said, "I want to go with you, too. Just call me when the time comes."
"Okay, I'll have company then." Tingyu agreed happily, her heart full of anticipation.
"Awoo awoo." The little dragon jumped from the side to Xuyun's head and rolled around happily on it.
Seeing this, Tingyu felt panicky. She called out to Xiaolong, "Come down quickly!"
Xiaolong stuck his butt out and ignored his old mother.
Xuyun put Xiaolong on the ground, found an excuse to leave, and touched Xiaolong's head before leaving.
When Xiaolong saw Xuyun leaving, he felt very disappointed and squatted aside motionlessly.
When Tingyu went to hug him, his body was stiff, "Relax a little, I can't hug you anymore."
Xiaolong also wanted to relax, but his body was so stiff that he couldn't even shout.
"This kid is too active when he goes out." Tingyu put the little dragon into the bag and put another little dragon on his head.
She was in a hurry to go back now. Zhu Sen would be back soon. "I'll go back first. Remember to eat the eggs from the Cuckoo Chicken."
Speaking of cuckoo chicken, Lin Sangyi heard a rooster crowing outside, so she stuck her head out.
Seeing Shi Sheng preparing to slaughter the chickens below, the cuckoo chickens were huddled nearby, their feet all tied up.
"Shi Sheng, let's keep a few of them so we don't have to go out hunting later."
Lin Sangyi walked down, picked out a few good-looking cuckoo chickens, and built a fence nearby with Qi Yu.
"Do you think this is right?" Qi Yu inserted the bamboo sticks into the ground and tied them up with vines.
Lin Sangyi tested the stability of the fence and said, "Yes, we will form a circle and leave a small door."
Qi Yu and his men were already familiar with the process, and they quickly made the fence and drove the selected cuckoo chickens in.
I pulled out a few vegetables from the vegetable garden next door and threw them inside the fence. The cuckoo chickens scrambled to eat the leaves.
"Then let's raise them and wait for them to lay eggs." Lin Sangyi lay on the fence and watched the cuckoo chickens eat vegetable leaves.
Before he could watch for long, Shi Sheng picked him up and said, "It's windy outside, let's go inside."
She didn't feel that cold at first, but as soon as Shi Sheng spoke, she felt the weather getting cooler.
"We have prepared new animal skins for you. Do you like any of them?" Shi Sheng took out an animal skin from his personal space.
Put it in front of Lin Sangyi and let her choose carefully.
Qi Yu also took out a warm animal skin from his personal space and placed it behind Shi Sheng.
"This one is so nice and furry, and it's white." Lin Sangyi held one of the pieces of animal skin tightly and touched it with his hand. It felt furry.
Shi Sheng took out a few pieces of plush animal skins and said, "I recommend wearing them in winter. It will be too hot to wear them now."
"Okay, let's take these few pieces." Lin Sangyi picked up a few pieces of animal skins and put them in his arms.
After they took away the other animal skins, Shi Sheng took out the needle and thread and began to sew the animal skin skirt.
"It should be made bigger." Shi Sheng measured her size and cut off an extra piece when cutting.
Lin Sangyi was eating sour fruits and lying in a rocking chair, doing nothing. She was a little bored.
"Let me cook for you." She still had some flour left from the exchange, just enough for making dumplings.
Qi Yu followed her carefully, protecting her.
When she picked up the knife, her palms were sweating from nervousness, for fear that Lin Sangyi would cut her.
He is not good at cutting and always cuts things very slowly.
Lin Sangyi's hands were very fast when she was cutting vegetables, and Qi Yu was scared every time he saw it.
"Qi Yu, go get me some soy sauce."
After preparing the meat filling, she started rolling out the dough.
"Sister, your face is so white." Mo Lin squatted happily beside her and watched her rolling the noodles.
Look at her face covered with flour, and she is laughing so hard that it makes a crackling sound.
"Where is it?" Lin Sangyi wiped it subconsciously, but forgot that his hands were also covered with flour.
This results in three flour marks on the face, which look particularly cute, like a kitten's whiskers.
"Sister, don't move. Let me wipe it for you." Mo Lin took out the small handkerchief he carried with him and wiped the flour off her face considerately.
Rolling noodles is a strenuous job. After Lin Sangyi finished rolling the noodles, she was exhausted and asked them to come over to make dumplings.
"Just watch my movements. Just wrap it up and it'll be fine." She didn't have high expectations for them. As long as the dumplings didn't break when they were cooked, they were good dumplings.
Mo Lin made the best dumplings. They were round and plump. He held up his dumplings proudly and said, "Look, my dumplings are big and round!"
Not wanting to be outdone, Qi Yu also raised his dumplings and said, "Mine are also big and round!"
When he finished speaking, the meat filling of the dumplings he had made came out and fell to the ground.
Causing them to burst into laughter, Qi Yu put the dumpling back in embarrassment, "This is an accident, I'll make another one!"
"Don't put too much meat, otherwise it won't be able to be wrapped." When Lin Sangyi was cooking dumplings, he saw that many of them had broken skins.
When we came over to take a look, we found that the culprit was Qi Yu. He always put too much meat in the food and it couldn't be wrapped at all.
"Okay, then I'll put less." Qi Yu really put less, there was very little meat.
Shi Sheng wanted to help him, "Eat the dumplings you made later, don't let me eat them."
Qi Yu didn't like what he said, he just said, "I'll eat it if I want!"
"Guozi, help me exchange two copper coins." Lin Sangyi also wanted to have a sense of ceremony, so he wrapped the copper coins inside.
Whoever eats the copper coin will have good luck this year.
Finally, she made a few dumplings and put the copper coins inside. When the water boiled, she put the dumplings without broken skins into the pot.
Looking at Qi Yu's broken dumplings, she was in a dilemma. They would definitely break if she threw them down, and then they would not taste good.
"Make it into steamed dumplings. You can still eat it even if it breaks."
When the dumplings were brought up, Qi Yu was the first to put the broken dumplings in his bowl.
"The dumplings I make are the most delicious. I won't give them to you."
Mo Lin wanted to wait until the dumplings were cool before putting them in his mouth. Although he usually didn't like eating hot food, he saw that they were eating it with great relish.
He couldn't help but take a bite, it was so hot when he put it in his mouth that he almost spit it out.
"What is so hard?" Mo Lin didn't dare to swallow it, and pushed the hard object out with his teeth.
Lin Sangyi didn't expect that the first one Mo Lin ate would win the prize. "This is a copper coin. I put two in, and you ate one of them."
"We have a saying over there that whoever eats the copper coin will have good luck this year."
Qi Yu was not willing to be outdone, so he ate the dumplings faster, as he also wanted to get the copper coins.
"I have copper coins here too!"
