Chapter 310: The Beast-eared Girls and Winged Girls Get Drunk for the First Time!
He smacked his lips again.
Lin Ye looked at Xing beside him and spoke.
“Xing, boil a pot of hot water in the iron pot and add some brown sugar. The others will definitely want water when they wake up.” Xing heard Lin Ye’s voice and turned to look over.
After obeying Lin Ye’s words, she immediately nodded, then turned and went to fetch water.
Lin Ye looked around and found nothing else to drink, only the leftover gnocchi soup from last night.
But after a night’s time, it had already turned into a pot of mush.
He had drunk so much last night. Although he had drunk homemade wine and didn’t get a headache after getting drunk, his body still felt uncomfortable, his mind was groggy, and his thinking was a bit slow.
Meanwhile, Sakura and the other three were happily heating up the barbecue.
Before long, Xing came back carrying a wooden bucket.
Then she was about to pour all the water into the iron pot.
Lin Ye asked, and when he knew Xing had drawn water from the well, he used a wooden cup to scoop out a cup and drank it.
After a cup of well water, Lin Ye finally felt much better.
His mind became clearer, and he wasn’t as groggy as he was when he first woke up.
Feeling completely relaxed, Lin Ye sat on a stool, thinking about what he needed to do today.
Yesterday, Lin Ye realized that the tribe’s well was too close to the ground in winter and could easily freeze.
So he also needed to prepare several large bamboo tubes to store water.
And it was best to use well water, which was another time-consuming task.
It required carrying water from the well to the brick house trip after trip.
But no matter how troublesome it was, he had to do it; Lin Ye himself, as well as the beast-eared girls and winged girls, couldn’t go a winter without water.
After heating the barbecue by the bonfire, Sakura and the others sat aside and ate.
Xing was tending the fire by the stove.
Lin Ye looked at it; the firewood for overwintering was also insufficient, and a lot of firewood was needed to fuel the stove and fireplace.
Although these were all small matters, if not thought of, they would become very troublesome big problems in winter.
Now that Lin Ye was in charge, he understood what it felt like to be the head of a household.
Moreover, behind him stood such a large family.
After the water boiled, Xing used a pottery pot to scoop water from the pot into the pottery pot.
Then she took brown sugar and added it spoonful by spoonful.
At this time, the beast-eared girls and winged girls had also woken up one after another.
One by one, they came to the dining table.
As Lin Ye had said, the beast-eared girls and winged girls’ first action upon waking was to look for water to drink.
However, the brown sugar water in the pottery pot had just been scooped out.
It was still too hot to drink.
One by one, the beast-eared girls and winged girls sat on stools.
They looked at each other blankly.
“How did I get back last night?”
“Yeah, all I remember is us sitting here chatting, I can’t recall anything else.”
“I vaguely remember someone carrying me, and then I didn’t know anything else.”
Listening to the voices of the beast-eared girls and winged girls discussing, Lin Ye smiled and shook his head.
At this moment, Susu came and sat beside Lin Ye, blinked her eyes, and asked Lin Ye coquettishly, “Ye, why don’t we remember anything after waking up?”
The beast-eared girls and winged girls who were discussing immediately looked over when they heard Susu’s voice.
They perked up their ears, waiting for Lin Ye’s answer.
Lin Ye glanced at their appearance, and the smile on his face grew even brighter.
The beast-eared girls and winged girls looked at Lin Ye, their confusion deepening.
After smiling for a while, Lin Ye finally spoke to them.
“You all drank a lot of wine last night. When you drink too much, this is what happens.”
“You should all thank Xing and Shi. Last night, they carried each of you back to your rooms.”
Upon hearing Lin Ye’s words, the beast-eared girls and winged girls looked at each other, then back at Lin Ye.
At this point, Ganyu also spoke, “Ye, I feel so weak this morning after waking up.”
“Since drinking makes you like this, why drink it?”
Ganyu finished speaking, and the other beast-eared girls and winged girls all nodded in agreement with Lin Ye.
Lin Ye heard Ganyu’s words and smiled, shaking his head, then said,
“It’s not that you get like this from drinking, it’s from drinking too much.”
“As long as you don’t drink too much, just enough to feel tipsy, that feeling is very comfortable, and you’ll feel energetic the next day.”
This time, upon hearing Lin Ye’s words, the beast-eared girls and winged girls all nodded as if they understood, yet didn’t quite.
Seeing them, Lin Ye couldn’t help but chuckle again.
Lin Ye then spoke again,
“Alright, all the wine from this batch is finished. Winter is coming soon, and there won’t be any more grapes. If you want to drink, you’ll have to wait until spring.”
The beast-eared girls and winged girls were still in a daze.
Upon hearing Lin Ye’s words, they were all relieved.
At this time, the brown sugar water had probably cooled down from scorching hot to warm.
The beast-eared girls and winged girls also took cups and got some, holding them and drinking.
Waking up from the hangover, drinking some sweet brown sugar water now.
The bitter taste in their mouths was instantly washed away.
Before long, all the beast-eared girls and winged girls had woken up and come to the dining table.
After getting drunk, they were all in a confused state.
Then, while drinking brown sugar water, they listened to other beast-eared girls and winged girls repeat what Lin Ye had just said.
Shi, on the other hand, was only tired and hadn’t drunk much alcohol.
So, after waking up, she didn’t have the same experience as the other beast-eared girls and winged girls.
After reaching the dining table, she drank a cup of brown sugar water with a gulp, gulp, gulp.
Then she immediately began to reheat last night’s leftovers.
Lin Ye looked out the window; it turned out he had woken up too late, and it was already noon.
As the aroma of food wafted out, Lin Ye felt extremely hungry.
All the beast-eared girls and winged girls sat on stools with Lin Ye, waiting for lunch.
At this time, Lin Ye thought for a moment and asked the beast-eared girls and winged girls,
“Winter is coming soon, and the water will freeze in winter. What do you all drink then?”
The beast-eared girls and winged girls frowned upon hearing Lin Ye’s question.
It seemed that everything about winter was an unbearable experience.
Xing’s eyes flickered with slight pain as she spoke…
“In winter, we all lived in caves. In the past, the water stored in the caves didn’t freeze and could be drunk for a long time.”
“Sometimes, when it rained in winter, we had to put empty wooden buckets outside to collect rainwater.”
“When there was absolutely no water left, we had to go to the river, chisel through the ice, and bring water back.”
Hearing Xing’s words, the other beast-eared girls and winged girls recalled every difficult winter they had spent.
One by one, they furrowed their brows tightly.
Lin Ye also began to feel sorry for these beast-eared girls and winged girls upon hearing this.
He could imagine how difficult it was for the beast-eared girls and winged girls to survive in such a primitive environment in extreme cold.
Listening to Xing say that they had to collect water in wooden buckets outside on rainy winter days.
Even taking a shower in summer felt cold.
Let alone in winter.
Moreover, the beast-eared girls and winged girls had only worn simple beast-skin clothes before.
They were all barely clothed.
Thinking that the beast-eared girls and winged girls had already endured several winters like this, Lin Ye felt immense heartache.
After all, these beast-eared girls and winged girls would all become his wives in the future.
Lin Ye naturally felt heartbroken.
However, after the beast-eared girls and winged girls furrowed their brows for a while, they turned and looked at the brick house they were currently in.
Seeing the constantly burning fireplace, the beast-eared girls and winged girls all smiled happily again.
One by one, the beast-eared girls and winged girls looked at Lin Ye with smiles.
They knew that Lin Ye had brought them all this.
This winter, they had warm clothes, lived in such a sturdy house, and ate such delicious food.
They felt a happiness they had never felt before.
Lin Ye, seeing all the beast-eared girls and winged girls looking at him with smiles, also showed a faint smile.
Knowing that the beast-eared girls and winged girls had endured winters like this before, Lin Ye knew he had to store well water in advance.
So Lin Ye put on a smile and spoke to the beast-eared girls and winged girls again, “Winter is coming soon. The river and the well will both freeze.”
“So we need to store fresh water in advance.”
The beast-eared girls and winged girls’ eyes showed that they understood what Lin Ye was saying.
Because the tribe’s well was not far from the wooden house, the tribe no longer had the habit of storing drinking water.
But now, hearing Lin Ye say that the well would also freeze in winter, the beast-eared girls and winged girls understood that they had to start storing drinking water.
Shi, who was eating ravenously, heard Lin Ye’s words and turned to look over.
With Shi’s intelligence, she could naturally imagine the consequences of not having water.
So, after turning to look at Lin Ye, Shi immediately asked,
“Ye, how should we store the water we need for winter in advance?”
After Shi finished speaking, the other beast-eared girls and winged girls also looked at Lin Ye and started asking one after another,
“Yeah, Ye, how should we store fresh water?!”
“We only have so many wooden buckets, even if we fill them all, they won’t last a few days?!”
