I've been transported to the orc continent.

Chapter 288 made something delicious again.

Yue ate slowly, savoring the flavor of the roasted meat.

Ling's cooking skills are naturally excellent. The meat is marinated very well, and it not only doesn't have a sour taste at all, but it's also more tender than the roasted meat she used to make.

After finishing a piece of grilled meat, Yue said truthfully, "I didn't taste any sourness, and it tasted even better than the grilled meat I used to have."

Bai Ling picked up another piece of roasted meat and gave it to Yue: "Yue, besides the roasted meat, there's also bone stew with radish, braised offal, and you should eat some vegetables later too."

Yue doesn't actually like eating green vegetables, but because Bai Ling said that eating green vegetables is good for your health, Yue will eat some whenever the tribe cooks green vegetables.

Not only Yue, but many other beastmen also stopped and came over to see what delicious food they had prepared that day. Families with children and cubs stopped, and the children who had been waiting around Bai Ling for the roasted meat were all pulled away by their respective adults.

Not far away, a six or seven-year-old child broke a cassava ball in half and handed them out: "Father, Father, Ling fried some cassava flour balls for us. I saved one for you."

The child's clear voice caught the attention of Bai Ling and Yue, who both looked over. When Yue saw the cassava balls in the child's hand, her eyes lit up slightly.

As long as Yue was by his side, Bai Ling's attention was mostly on her. Of course, he saw Yue's eyes light up and understood why they did.

However, Yue didn't take this little incident to heart. He glanced over there and said to Bai Ling, "Ling, I'll put the sorghum back first."

*

The Yue family also harvested sorghum. The harvested sorghum was laid out to dry in the square. After drying the bundled sorghum ears on his handcart, he washed his hands and face, took two earthenware bowls, filled one with bone and radish stew and the other with braised offal, and took a few cassava cakes. He then returned and sat down next to Bai Ling.

Yue tore the meat off the bone, sandwiched it between two cassava cakes, and then handed the two cassava cakes to Bai Ling: "Ling, you eat first."

Bai Ling was in charge of grilling the meat, so he couldn't sit down to eat. Yue came up with this idea to let Bai Ling have something to eat first.

Bai Ling continued grilling the meat, her eyes shining as she looked at Yue, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Yue, both my hands are busy, I can't free up any hands to eat, what do you suggest we do?"

By this time, the orcs had all come over one after another, and some of them came over to get the roasted meat. When the orcs standing in front heard what Bai Ling said, they all burst out laughing.

A young male said, "Ling, how about I grill the meat for you? You can go eat over there."

The orc standing next to him said, "Don't you dare! If you roast the meat, you'll burn it. We don't want to eat burnt meat."

Another orc said, "Ling, why don't you just roast the meat with one hand and eat the cassava cake with the other? That's how I sometimes cook at home."

Bai Ling ignored the jokes of his tribesmen. He simply looked at the moon with his dark eyes, waiting for her answer.

The two were often inseparable. Even if Bai Ling didn't say anything, Yue could tell what he wanted to do just by looking into his eyes.

Yue said nothing, but held the cassava cake in both hands and brought it to Bai Ling's mouth, whispering, "Eat it."

Bai Ling's smile deepened. He lowered his head slightly and took a big bite of the cassava cake filled with beast meat.

The cassava cakes were steamed this afternoon and have a slightly sweet taste. The meat is chewy and flavorful, and the combination is quite delicious.

And so, as Bai Ling grilled the meat, Yue would occasionally feed him a few bites. By the time the meat was finished grilling, Bai Ling had eaten almost all of it.

Before dawn, Bai Ling got up and started working.

Since the start of the autumn harvest, Bai Ling has been getting up later than usual. Harvesting crops is tiring, so Bai Ling no longer gets up so early and makes simple breakfasts. But today, he got up early to cook, just like usual.

Yesterday, when Yue saw her child distributing meatballs to his father, her eyes lit up slightly. Because he had been quite busy, he hadn't cooked anything delicious for her for a while, and Yue probably craved the meatballs her child had brought out.

Since Yue was craving it, he naturally had to make it. So Bai Ling got up early today and planned to make some meatballs.

Bai Ling mixes tapioca flour and roasted soybean flour together, kneads it into a dough with sugar water, and then shapes it into balls, sprinkling sesame seeds on top of each ball.

Besides tapioca flour balls, Bai Ling also plans to make some radish balls, one sweet and one savory, so she can choose whichever flavor she wants.

Cut the radish into thin strips, add scallions, ginger, quail eggs, flour, and seasoning powder, mix well, and set aside.

A fire was lit in the stove, and animal fat was put into the pot. After the oil was ready, Bai Ling put the cassava and bean flour balls into the pot, and a sizzling sound rang out.

The fire in the pot didn't need to be too high; Bai Ling burned small twigs. After the oil was hot, Bai Ling put the cassava bean flour balls into the pot, and a sizzling sound rang out.

As the wind blew into the kitchen, he saw his son bent over cooking, and there was a delicious aroma in the kitchen.

"Ling, what are you doing?" Before Bai Ling could answer, Feng walked over and saw what was in the pot. "You fried meatballs? Do you need my help?"

Bai Ling: "Father, just cook some mung bean porridge, and heat up some cassava cakes and steamed dumplings from the tribe. I also made radish balls."

Feng nodded and started getting busy too.

A short while later, Chen ran into the kitchen, grabbed two meatballs, stuffed them into his mouth, and went to sweep the yard.

Bai Ling got up early and all the meatballs were fried. The neighbors had just started cooking. Bai Ling carried a ceramic basin and walked towards Yue's house.

By this time, quite a few beastmen had gotten up. Several beastmen greeted Bai Ling, and Bai Ling greeted them back with a smile.

Hearing a noise from the gate of the fence, a man came out of the Yue family's livestock shed. It was Yue's grandfather. When he saw Bai Ling carrying a ceramic basin in both hands, he knew what Bai Ling had come for.

"Ling, Yue is in the front yard, go ahead."

Bai Ling smiled and called out "Grandpa," then said she understood, and quickened her pace.

In the front yard of the Yue family's house, some beans were drying. Yue was turning the beans when he heard his beloved's footsteps. He immediately turned around and smiled.

How can one describe this smile? It was as pure as the clear sky, as sweet as if one had just eaten honey, and the joy was impossible to hide.

Even though the two had just met yesterday, Yue was still happy and excited to see Bai Ling again today.

He put down his fork, walked towards Bai Ling, and asked, "Ling, what delicious food have you made for me this time?"
