Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

"Okay, I understand. Is there anything else you need?" Lu Chuan asked again.

"Buy whatever you see you need! Don't miss out on seafood! Don't buy too much at once, as you still have a long time to go! If you buy too much, it will be too heavy and you will be tired carrying it back."

"You can buy it in multiple installments. If you need it, tell me and we can go to the county town together!"

"I see! Don't worry!"

"Do you have any more money? I'll give you some more!" After saying that, Xu Han prepared to take the silver.

Lu Chuan hurriedly held him back and said, "I still have money! These little things don't cost a lot of money. I'll ask you for them when I run out of money!"

Xu Han didn't force it, knowing that Lu Chuan wasn't the kind of person who couldn't save face, so she just let it go!

The two of them ate and talked about trivial matters at home, and they were very happy.

This is also the life that Xu Han has always longed for in modern times, working from sunrise to sunset.

Although there is no mobile network, every day is very fulfilling.

Although I feel very tired sometimes, I am also very happy. Looking at the rewards I have gained through my labor, I feel a special sense of accomplishment.

After the two finished dinner, Lu Chuan washed the dishes and boiled water for a bath as usual, while Xu Han began to collect the dried vegetables in the yard to prevent them from getting wet by the dew.

It is a big project to collect everything into the house. If the dried cucumbers and potatoes can be put together, just pour them together. Also put the dried beans into the winnowing basket. If there is free space tomorrow, you don’t have to put them on the rack to dry.

The dried beans are almost done drying and can be stored tomorrow. The dried potatoes and cucumbers need another day to dry.

After cleaning up, Xu Han took her clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

After taking a shower, Lu Chuan took the opportunity to wash their clothes. Whenever he had time, Lu Chuan would help with housework. He was not a male chauvinist and would take the initiative to help with washing clothes, washing dishes, and cooking.

Xu Han was quite satisfied with this. Fortunately, Lu Chuan was not a male chauvinist who thought men should stay away from the kitchen and housework. Otherwise, Xu Han would be really angry.

Housework is the job of two people, and you can't expect one person to do it all. Be considerate of each other, and you can live long.

While Lu Chuan was doing the laundry, Xu Han was not idle either. She continued to make clothes and shoes during this time.

There is a solar flashlight in the house and the walls are painted with lime. When you turn on the flashlight at night, the house is very bright.

It does not affect the rush to make clothes at night. Besides, it gets dark late and light early now, plus we have a short lunch break, and the weather is not particularly cold.

If you go to bed right after dark, it would be a waste of time.

It was around ten o'clock before the two of them prepared to go to bed.

Have a good night's sleep...

After the rooster crowed, the two got up one after another. After having breakfast, they mopped the floor in the house, wiped the table, and took the quilt out to dry in the sun.

The dried vegetables that were collected yesterday also need to be taken out to dry. After finishing these, I went to the backyard and picked out the chicken and duck eggs first.

Now the chickens and ducks have started laying eggs. Xu Han can pick up a lot of chicken and duck eggs every day. She can’t eat them all, so Xu Han puts them all in the space for storage.

Eggs are also an indispensable food every day. After the natural disasters in the next four years, the water in the space is only enough for the two people and the dog to drink daily, and it will be tight. It may not be enough.

I'm sure I won't be able to keep these chickens and ducks alive in the future. By then, there will be no eggs to eat, so I must save more now!

After picking up the eggs, I cleaned the chicken coop, sprinkled some lime on it to disinfect it, and fed the chickens. This completed the work in the chicken coop.

Then I started picking vegetables. It was like this every day. It seemed that there was nothing to do, but there were still many things to do.

These are some daily and trivial invisible housework, and it is these invisible housework that makes people more tired.

After finishing everything, the sun was getting brighter and I had to go back to the house to make clothes and pants to avoid the sun.

After lunch, Xu Han first cooked all the snails that she had raised in the past few days and put them in the space to eat.

Then Xu Han went to the cornfield carrying a basket on her back. She first picked the corn and then cut off the corn stalks.

Walking around in the cornfield, you will be scratched by the corn leaves, which is very itchy. So Xu Han wore long sleeves and long pants, and her face was covered with sweat and her hair was soaked.

After working for a while, I sat down to rest. I took out a bottle of Coke and a portion of ice jelly from the space. After eating, I felt that the heat in my body was relieved a lot.

After a short break, he continued working, and only stopped after breaking about ten baskets.

I came to the soybean field again and saw that the soybeans had grown very full and could be cooked and eaten, so I took out a sickle and started to cut them.

Green soybeans can be used to cook edamame, or added as a side dish when cooking duck or chicken.

You can also add it to porridge when making it, which is also very delicious.

After harvesting a lot of green beans, Lu Chuan came back and Xu Han also stopped working. They went back home together.

Lu Chuan went to the county town today and brought back a lot of things.

I bought some of the peas, peanuts, brown sugar, and raisins that Xu Han wanted, as well as some other odds and ends.

Seeing Lu Chuan bought peanuts, Xu Han thought about cooking some edamame peanuts first, and soaking them for a while after cooking. They will be very tasty when eaten in the evening.

First pick the edamame, then wash the edamame and peanuts, put them in a pot and add water to cover the edamame and peanuts.

Then add appropriate amount of salt and spices such as star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, and more chili peppers to make a spicy and spiced dish that will taste better.

After boiling over high heat, simmer for a while over low heat, put it in the pot and soak it in salt water to make it taste good. You can eat it when it’s time for dinner.

After finishing all this, Xu Han took Lu Chuan to the sweet potato field to pick some sweet potato stalks and leaves before it got dark.

The sweet potato leaves will be used to make sweet potato leaf steamed bread, which is the season for eating now. The sweet potato stems will be used to dry vegetables tomorrow.

They kept picking until it was getting dark, then they got up and went home.

After returning home, Xu Han made sweet potato steamed bread, the main dish for tonight, and fried a meat dish. It was also very rich with today's edamame and peanuts.

Just as Xu Han thought, Lu Chuan liked the peanuts and edamame dish very much. He ate one after another like a snack, and paired it with beer, he couldn't stop eating it.

The two of them showed off a small bowl of edamame and peanuts.

Xu Han was never stingy when it came to food. Knowing that both she and Lu Chuan had been in bad physical condition, she had been providing them with dietary supplements.
