Zhanshan is the king of the last days

"It's true that I haven't rested for a long time~~" Xiao Dingnan sighed, leaning on Chen Yifei at night.

In fact, he really doesn’t have much ambition. Before the end of the world, no matter how good the stall’s business was, he would always set aside two days a month to rest, or take Banban to the outdoors to relax and climb a mountain (although most of the time It was he who climbed the mountain with this lazy little ancestor), after the end of the world, because of one or another reason, he has been exhausted, thinking about it, he hasn't relaxed for a long time.

"Banban is already very worry-free! You are so busy, besides helping us go hunting every day, even if he takes his gang of boys to play around, he won't run around, kid! Sometimes he will do something on purpose. Things to attract adults' attention, he is still young!" Chen Yifei, a parent who spoils his children, persuaded.

"Hey! I also know that Banban has always been very good! How about this, I'll give everyone a holiday tomorrow, it seems that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon? Why don't we all have a delicious meal together for the festival? Let's have fun too !" Xiao Dingnan turned over and lay down on Chen Yifei in a more comfortable position.

"Huh? Why does the moon feel so much bigger?" Looking up at the gradually rising moon, Xiao Dingnan asked suspiciously.

"Probably because it's almost Mid-Autumn Festival... that's fine! Let's go back to eat!" Chen Yifei hugged Xiao Dingnan, took advantage of the moment Ban Ban turned his head and kissed him hard, and the couple took the cat son back together time to eat.

I don't know what happened recently, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the water level of the big lake, which was originally abundant in water, has dropped by more than ten centimeters, because the weather is too hot, Banban can't help but go to the lake to take a bath every day.

Because of this, now they have even changed their recipes and meal times!

In order to avoid the hottest time of the day, now, they get up at three o'clock in the morning every day, then have breakfast, go out to work, wait until ten o'clock in the morning, when the outside temperature has reached [-] degrees, and go home from work, simple Eat some mung bean soup, wild vegetable buns, etc., and then go to the woods to escape the heat together, or go to the river to take a bath (only for men).

At five o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was about to set, the people assembled again to go to work.Here is a little bit of broadcasting. Originally, everyone wanted to open up wasteland and plant some vegetables and fruits. Later, they found that the temperature during the day was too high. The wasteland in the village has been turned into paddy fields. Just such a small paddy field, everyone loves it, and even built a simple roof on top of it, to slightly block the direct sunlight of the scorching sun, but it can’t be completely blocked. I am worried that the rice will not grow well. , It is more meticulous than serving the ancestors!

The plan to grow my own fruits and vegetables fell through, and the source of green vegetables in collective cafeterias was still those wild edible wild vegetables near the Great Lakes.In order to save these precious ingredients, the aunts in the cafeteria are so stingy that they don’t even want to throw away the yellowed vegetable leaves!

Several times, Xiao Dingnan even ate old sticks of chopped water celery in the buns!

But, how do you say your complaints?In the current climate, being able to eat this kind of old dish is already considered pretty good!Xiao Dingnan believes that outside the Great Lakes, in places that lack water sources, under the scorching sun, it is probably true to say that the land is thousands of miles away.Not to mention the old vegetables, I'm afraid you can't even find a little bit of green, right?

Now, the entire base no longer even cooks in the small cafeteria.Green vegetables are too precious. The usual way is to make soup or chop them up to make buns, wraps, etc., or the ones with more meat and less vegetables...

Because of this, Li Miaoyang has led a few experienced old farmers to try to open up tidal flats by the lake, transplant some aquatic wild vegetables, such as water celery and duck feet, and try to grow some suitable for hydroponics. Some vegetables, such as water spinach, hope to be able to plant artificially before eating up these wild vegetables.In this era without vitamins, if you want to live a healthy life, you can count on these vegetables! ! !

The bad weather has suddenly heightened the sense of crisis for everyone!Such a good place, being able to be occupied by them first, is a way of life given to them by God, and it is also... the treasure that everyone is fighting for in the last days!

Not wanting to live a precarious life anymore, everyone showed great courage and fighting spirit for building the city wall and protecting the base!He often took advantage of the coolness of the night to light fires and work overtime to make adobe and build city walls.

Because of this, dinner was also moved to around eight o'clock at night.

There is not much flour left. Today's dinner is grilled fish, stewed meat and a small amount of rice soup.The stew was lightly chopped with wild onions and barely a trace of other greens could be seen.In order to supplement vitamins for everyone, Xu Yiqing took people to the depths of the jungle to collect a lot of wild fruits, and gave each person one after the meal. That's it, there are still many people who are reluctant to eat, and save the fruits for the children!

"It's not a way to go on like this..." Xiao Dingnan sighed as he stuffed the fruit in his hand to Li Miaoyang.

"It would be great if I could get some Zizania seedlings... The yield of Zizania is very high!" Zhang Guangshui also broke the fruit he got in half, and stuffed them separately for the twin sons.

"That's right! The water surface here is so big, it would be great if we could grow wild rice stems!" Xiao Dingnan's eyes lit up!

He is familiar with vegetables like wild rice stems!Someone in my hometown used to grow them, as long as there is water, in addition to wild rice, there are also lotus root, water shield, arrowhead mushroom, water chestnut, water chestnut, taro, etc., all of which can be planted in water!There is no need to open up wasteland to occupy their precious land, but also to increase the variety of vegetables, it can't be better!

But... where to find these seedlings?

"Perhaps... we can look for those dry lakes. I remember that in the past few years, the rural areas have developed special planting industries. Many villages have begun to contract lakes to grow some cash crops, such as lotus roots, water chestnuts, etc. These are not used. Especially to buy seeds, just dig out the roots and live.”

"That's a good idea... However, the temperature is so high during the day, it's a bit dangerous to go out to search for supplies..." Xiao Dingnan hesitated.

"Actually... I think we can take this task apart." Li Miaoyang swallowed the last mouthful of sour fruit, pulled out a piece of firewood and scratched it on the ground, "You see, our main difficulty lies in Between ten o'clock in the morning and five o'clock in the afternoon, the surface temperature is at least 09 degrees during this period, so it is not worthwhile to venture out to search for seeds! In this way, we can separate this task and let Brother Shui and Xiao Wu go to search nearby Take a look to see if there are any nearby ponds growing these vegetables, and mark the approximate route and the time required to go back and forth. You set off at 30 in the morning and return at 100:[-], more than five hours, enough for you to fly more than [-] miles around Once again!"

"Then, according to the route map brought back by Brother Shui, we made a reasonable plan and divided into several groups, with Banban, Xiaobai, and Xiaoer. We can set off earlier, after three o'clock, and it will be almost dawn when we arrive. Hurry up , It should take more than three hours to dig a lot, everyone must return at nine o'clock! Come back before the temperature soars, so there will be no problems."

"Also, at that time, I will send a few other teams to clear the roadblocks for you in advance. You don't have to worry about anything, you just need to hurry and dig the seeds!"

"Don't be greedy! Life is more important than food!" Li Miaoyang looked at everyone seriously.

"That's right! No matter what good things you see, you must go home at nine o'clock!" Xiao Dingnan agreed.

"Then wait for Brother Shui to come back from surveying the situation, and let's discuss the next step."

"Well~~~ This matter is not in a hurry. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. This is the first festival we have spent together. Everyone think about how to spend it? Let's say okay first, I can't help moon cakes , you can have meatloaf." Xiao Dingnan laughed.

"Mid-Autumn Festival? We all forgot!" Everyone sighed for a moment.

Yes, from the end of the world to the present, they have been exhausted, busy trying to survive in this cruel world, how can they care about the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Think about it before the apocalypse, how many people count down the date eagerly during the long holidays like the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day?Just waiting for the holidays to not go to school or work, and have fun everywhere.But now, what everyone thinks about every day is that they can get more good meat when hunting, and more tender wild vegetables when they go out to look for wild vegetables...

Moon cakes... I dare not even think about it! ! !

"I used to think that mooncakes were sweet and greasy, and I gained weight after eating them. I refused to eat them every time. Now that I think about it, I really regret it..." Zhang Rujiao was full of regret. Back then, when the family celebrated the festival, How many people brought all kinds of exquisite and high-end moon cakes to their home to give gifts?She thinks the mooncakes are too oily, so she gathers them together and packs them up and ships them directly to the impoverished families supported by her family.It's good now, I want to eat, but I don't have to!

Everyone carefully recalled in their minds those delicious egg yolk mooncakes, ham mooncakes, bean paste mooncakes, chocolate mooncakes, osmanthus mooncakes, meat floss mooncakes, lotus paste mooncakes, etc. It is also very delicious (﹃)

It's a pity that I can't eat it anymore...

Everyone present, even Grandma Wang, who was the oldest, said that she would not make mooncakes for a long time: "It would be too expensive and troublesome to make mooncakes by myself, so I might as well buy a few! Anyway, there are not many to eat during the festival!"

Yes~~ If before the end of the world, eating mooncakes on Mid-Autumn Festival would be a difficult task for those women who are trying to lose weight!It would be nice to eat half of it!Now, everyone said one after another, how is one enough?Must try everything! ! !

"Forget it! Don't think about moon cakes! In this way, I looked at the calendar, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is two days away. Let's split up and prepare more food. We can celebrate the festival without moon cakes! Eat more hearty! We here It’s okay, but on the brigade side, in order to save food, it is said that they only eat two meals a day now.”

"How about this, Xiao Nan and I took Banban to the east, there is a forest that we haven't been to yet, let's go explore and get some good things out!" Chen Yifei responded first.

"Chi~~" Those who knew the inside story couldn't help but despise, didn't they just want to take the opportunity to enjoy the world of two with your dear?Do you want to take Banban as a cover?

"Want to go on a date with Ban Ban? Dream it! Cats are the bane of all romantic dates!" Zhang Rujiao snickered.

"Hey~~ You said the two of them, didn't that one?" Liu Mengmei poked her good friend with her index finger with a wretched expression.

"Oh, you're necrotic! But I see, it's probably because you slept!" Zhang Rujiao was even more wretched, "Aren't you a married woman? You should have more experience in this matter than me, right?"

Zhang Guangshui, who has eyesight and hearing, heard the extremely awkward conversation between the two, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times: It's over!This wife of his was completely spoiled...
