Chapter 733 A sadistic female partner farming in the last days (18)
Xu Yin’s family also cooked a delicious meal today.
Of course, this “delicious” only applies to the present moment. Before the end of the world, few people would think that such a lunch could be called a sumptuous meal.
She soaked a handful of mushrooms, minced the stuffing with tender cabbage, and made a few cages of vegetarian steamed buns. They were the staple food at noon, and the extra ones were frozen for breakfast tomorrow and the day after.
In addition, I took out a piece of frozen beef tendon two days ago and made a batch of strong beef meatballs. I cooked a few today and added a few green cabbages to make a delicious beef meatball and cabbage soup.
Tender bok choy, blanched in a few seconds, just sprinkled with salt and no more seasoning is needed, it is already delicious enough.
After finishing the meal, I fried a fragrant vegetable egg pancake with chopped cabbage leaves, diced carrots and sweet corn kernels.
A simple and delicious lunch with meat and vegetables, both wet and dry, balanced nutrition, served on the table. Even the little boy in the family clapped his hands happily: "Rice! Rice!"
“Yes, dinner is ready!”
Xu Yin threw a beef ball to Niu Niu who was lying outside the kitchen door.
There were so many types of supplies stored at home that it was too troublesome to rummage around when they were piled together, so she simply divided them into categories and stored them by room. She also made use of the children's room on the second floor, stocking up a roomful of items specifically for good babies. . Everything you need for your baby should be found in this room.
The children's room is gone, and now the dining room has become a play area for the little ones. Since there are only a few of them in the house, they don't need much space for eating. The original long dining table is placed next to it, where teapots, water glasses, fruit plates, etc. can be placed. The kitchen A small round table was installed in the kitchen, and now all three meals are served in the kitchen.
But the kitchen door is relatively narrow, and Niu Niu’s mutated body is too big, so she can’t squeeze in.
So every time we eat, it lies at the door. The little expression is resentful, as if to accuse: You are all eating, I am just watching.
Xu Yin would be embarrassed if she didn't treat her to a beef ball.
It turned out that this guy was so addicted to eating that he couldn't fit even one beef ball between his teeth and swallowed it in one gulp before even tasting it.
Since it didn't have enough to eat, it raised its paws and scratched the door frame, whimpering in an attempt to attract Xu Yin's attention.
Xu Yin: “…”
If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have fed it.
The good boy couldn't help but see that his best friend had no food, so he raised his little arms high and wanted to feed him a vegetarian bun.
But the big dog doesn't like vegetarian buns. He wants to eat beef balls.
“Time! Time!” Good times for buns!
“Woo! Woo!” Instead of steamed buns, I want meatballs!
…”
The meal was a lively one.
Mrs. Jiang took a sip of meatball soup, ate a piece of boiled cabbage, and sighed:
Xu Yin laughed dumbly: "That's not the case. We have land. If you want to eat, you can plant more. Last time I went out, I found a seed shop and stocked all kinds of vegetables. We can plant whatever you want to eat." Mrs. Jiang was very busy. Waving his hand: "I can eat whatever I want, it's good if I eat some!"
She just said that it would be good to have enough to eat now. Having meat, vegetables and hot meals with her boss like her was really a good day in her previous life. She would burn incense and pay homage to her. She would be struck by lightning if she was picky about it.
"Don't talk about it far away, let's just talk about the people living in tents at the entrance of the community. Their three meals a day are either biscuits or instant noodles. Today, I heard from those who came in to work that the water supply was cut off again this morning. If you want to eat hot instant noodles, There is nothing to eat, only compressed biscuits and cold water.”
"The water has stopped again?" Xu Yin sighed softly when he heard this.
The villas in Oriental Royal Garden were all connected to a direct drinking water system before delivery.
In the extension area behind the kitchen of every house, there is a large water tank that can store 2 tons of water. In addition, the property has also prepared several large water storage barrels in case the municipal water supply is suddenly cut off.
From the time she walked to here, she stopped for water several times.
The municipal government has been working hard to provide residents with water as much as possible, but water pipes are often bitten by mutated animals, and repairs take time, often lasting two or three days.
Oriental Royal Garden has not been affected yet because each home has a two-ton water storage tank, and even worse, there is drinking water stored in the property.
And Mrs. Jiang knows how to prepare for rainy days. Didn’t Xu Yin carry several large water tanks home earlier? It hasn't rained recently, and Xu Yin was worried that the [Floating Rain] skill would make those mutated plants more arrogant, so she didn't dare to try it, so Mrs. Jiang took advantage of the water supply to fill up those large tanks. Got water.
The first thing you do when you get up every morning is to check whether the water supply is out.
If the water supply is not stopped, quickly water the vegetable fields in the front and back yards, then wash and scrub, wait until the clothes are dried and the floors are mopped.
The vegetables and rice to be eaten that day are washed and set aside. One tank of water is almost used. The bottom of the tank is cleaned and refilled with tap water. Use another tank the next day...
In this way, the water in the tank is constantly circulating, it does not stink, and the water at home is sufficient, which makes me feel particularly at ease.
Unexpectedly, the water supply was cut off again today.
Mrs. Jiang came back from the self-service supermarket and saw Niu Niu carrying the baby in the house. She was worried that the baby would fall, so she kept watching. Later, when she saw Xu Yin coming in with a basket of cabbage, she was attracted by the cabbage. , forgot to mention this.
When she mentioned it now, she looked sad: "I heard from them that the water outage is more serious this time. It seems that a group of mutated cows broke into the water plant, injured several workers, and even broke the water supply system. I don't know what happened." It will be fixed in time.”
After a pause, she let out a long sigh: "If the power goes out, we have solar energy. If the gas goes out, we can use an induction cooker or a coal stove to cook. The same goes for those people outside. The diesel generator can provide power, so it can still hold on. How can we live without water?"
Xu Yinxin said: That’s because the magnetic field is now turbulent and electronic products such as mobile phones cannot be used. So if the power is out, it will at best go back to the days of using flashlights, lighting candles, and lighting coal stoves. If the mobile phone could be used, I'm afraid many people would shout: I can survive the water outage, but how can I live without electricity?
After dinner, Mrs. Jiang cleaned up the kitchen, played with Guabao for a while, and then took him to take a nap.
Xu Yin squatted in front of her vegetable patch, checking to see if there were cabbage caterpillars. If there were any, she would catch them in a bottle and go back to fertilize them. At the same time, she was a little confused: Should she activate [Floating Light and Smoke]?
At this time, Song Haobin came to the door.
Of course, the Xu family had no access. He stood outside the wall and expressed his intention, and then said:
“…Ms. Xu, do you think this proposal is okay? You can mention the salary, but even if you can’t do it, I will try my best to help you get it.”
…”
What are you doing? Do you think my sister is not busy enough?
