Here its baked.
I took the bread out of the stone oven. It had expanded to two times its size.
I cut the bread and put dried cranberries in one half and venison in the other.
It really got bigger. Can I eat it Cyril?
Yeah of course.
I said and Lucy took the half filled with dried cranberries and took a bite.
Its so soft. Its so fluffy and tasty. Bread can be this yummy?
Lucy stuffed the bread in her mouth and looked like an adorable little squirrel. It made me want to pet her head.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com
Its much better than the usual bread we make in the village, but its lacking something.
Indeed dough made from water and wheat lacked impact. If only I had some eggs and butter I could make much more delicious thingsbut we didnt have any livestock in the village.
We had some horses that we used for transportation and farming, but they wouldnt produce enough milk and they didnt get pregnant easily.
In consideration of the future we needed a source of salt, reclaim our supply routes, and to obtain livestock.
In terms of cost performance goats would probably be best. We could get milk and butter from them.
Even so this is plenty delicious. Why does the bread get bigger when you put in this yeast thing Cyril? Does yeast make more wheat?
No of course it cant increase the wheat. It just lets a lot of air inside. Look when you tear the bread you can see all these little holes? When they get created they soften the bread and make it larger.
Is that so? But it seems annoying to make yeast every time. It takes a week of soaking the cranberries in water right?
Thats right. However, low temperatures wont allow the yeast to form so you need to be careful. Right now it should be fine but itll be more difficult come winter.
Awwwwhen winter comes we cant gather cranberries and Ill have to bid farewell to this soft bread..
Lucy looked at the bread with regret.
Dont worry about it. We dont need raw cranberries to make yeast. We can use preserved and dried cranberries. Plus we dont have to make it every time. You know what this is?
This is the bread dough before baking
Correct.
I smiled as I rolled the small piece of dough around in my hand.
It was a serious desire, but I made sure to hold myself back properly. If we went too far Im worried my brakes would cease to function.
Adult things?
Huggingkissing.making kids.
Lucy retreated quickly with a blush as I said those words.
C-Cyril
Lucys eyes wandered as she let out a bewildered voice.
Is it weird? I feel like wanting to do things like that with the person you love is natural.
Umm, its not weirdbut when you say it so suddenly and casually I cant get used to it!
So its a matter of suddenness? Then instead of a greeting Ill tell you I love you when I see you.
I feel like thats off the mark.
Im sorry, I didnt think it would surprise you that much. But, once I save the village and if you accept me LucyIll do what I said every day.
Uu, so unfair. Why am I always the one who ends up all flustered
My heart is pounding too. It takes courage to say such pretentious lines.
I absolutely cant tell.
I want to act cool because Im in front of you Lucy.
I said with a smile. Even I was feeling embarrassed.
I wanted to quickly save the village and hear her response to my confession.
Umm Cyrilwill you really do it every day?
Of course. So take that into account when you consider your response.
And just like that we ate our lunch with lively and happy conversation.
I treasured these moments every second.
I knew that times like these would be in short supply soon.
This was simply the calm before the storm
