Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

"Are the wild fruits in the mountains ripe? When I picked loquats today, many of them had rotted and were wasted!" said Xu Han.

"Some of them are ripe! You can pick them!" Lu Chuan replied.

"Then do you have time to take me into the mountains tomorrow? Let's pick some wild fruits and save them for later!"

"Sure! I'll go with you tomorrow. Some of the fruit trees are very tall, so I can help you pick them!"

"Okay! Then let's set off early tomorrow! We can pick more while the weather is not too hot."

"Well, we'll set out before daybreak tomorrow."

Xu Han also put the basket of August Explosions that Lu Chuan brought back into the space for safekeeping.

Then she went to the kitchen to cook dinner. She hadn't eaten clay pot chicken for a long time, so Xu Han planned to make some tonight.

Wash the chicken, chop it into large pieces, then stir-fry it in the pot, then add appropriate spices and seasonings and water and start stewing.

After stewing for a while, add the pumpkin shoots and dried beans that were soaked in the morning and simmer.

Of course, eating clay pot chicken is indispensable to having pancakes. Xu Han began to knead the dough, adding some salt to it and kneading it into a slightly soft dough.

Then pinch the dough into small pieces and soak them in water for a while.

After the chicken is cooked, stretch the dough into small thin pancakes, stick half of it to the wall of the pot and half of it on top of the chicken.

Cover the pot and simmer for a while. When the pancake is cooked, you can eat it.

After it's done, just take the pot off the stove and put it on the stove outside, and you can eat it.

There is charcoal fire in the stove. After eating the chicken and pancakes, you can add chicken soup, cook noodles and vegetarian dishes.

Lu Chuan took a bite of the clay pot pancake and exclaimed, it’s so delicious!

"The rice crust on the pan is crispy, and the other half of the pancake next to the chicken is full of chicken juice. It's really delicious!"

"I also like the pancakes in the clay pot chicken, especially the part that absorbs the soup, it's so fragrant!" Xu Han also agreed.

The two of them sat in the yard eating and enjoying the cool air.

If you eat clay pot chicken around the stove in winter, the experience will be better. It is warm and full of happiness as you eat while it is being cooked.

After eating, Lu Chuan cleaned the house while Xu Han prepared tools for picking wild fruits in the mountains tomorrow.

You must take the sickle and the hook. If there is a high place that you can't hook, you can use the hook to hook it down.

There are also backpacks. Take out all the backpacks in the house and put them in the space for use.

I heard from Lu Chuan that there are a lot of wild fruits in the mountains, and these backpacks may not be enough. There are bags in the space, and we can just pour the fruits into the bags when the time comes!

There is also the mint water and honeysuckle water that Xu Han has already prepared. They have cooled down and are stored in the space. They can be drunk directly tomorrow.

After finishing everything, the two went to bed early.

A dreamless night...

The next day, the two set out before dawn. After walking for about an hour, they found a piece of August bomb.

Lu Chuan had found this patch of August blast in advance. He picked some ripe ones yesterday. Thinking that the ones here should be ripe as well, he came here to pick them.

As soon as Xu Han and Lu Chuan arrived near their destination, they smelled the aroma of fried dough sticks.

Xu Han ran over quickly and saw a lot of ripe August bombs. Some of them had already exploded, but there were not many.

"Lu Chuan, come quickly, there are really a lot of August bombs here."

When Lu Chuan heard Xu Han's voice, he quickly came over. It was really a large area, and it was estimated that five or six baskets could be picked.

Without further ado, we started picking. The August apples were still quite large, so we picked them all in no time.

The two continued to move forward. Their main goal today was the August fried fruit and wild loquat.

Maybe there were really no other people coming into the deep mountains, so wild fruits were easy to find. I saw a field of wild loquats not far away, but almost all of them were in good condition. Some were rotten, and some were eaten by birds.

After searching for a long time without finding much, the two decided not to waste time and continued to move forward.

There are many wild fruits in the mountains. Although some of them will be eaten by nearby birds, it is only a small portion after all.

After walking a little further, they saw a field of August bombyx and continued picking them.

The weather today was not very hot. It was cloudy and the sun was not very strong. The two did not take a break at noon. After a simple lunch, they continued to pick wild fruits. They did not rush home until the sun was about to set.

Today's harvest was quite good. We picked all the nearby August fritters in almost one day, and also harvested two baskets of loquats.

The ground loquats were a completely unexpected harvest. The previous few times I searched for ground loquats, there were not many edible ones. After lunch, I found a hidden place that was relatively deep, and I picked more than a basket of ground loquats in one go.

But there will not be such a good opportunity to find so many loquats later, fortunately, it is very easy to find them in August.

Xu Han was quite satisfied with today's gains.

After returning home, the weather was gloomy and it might rain heavily in the second half of the night, so the two of them had no time to rest and quickly started harvesting beans.

Only after I had packed all the beans into the sack and put them in the warehouse could I sit in a chair and have a good rest.

After walking on the mountain road for a whole day, Xu Han didn't want to cook anymore, so she took out the food in the space and prepared a simple meal.

After dinner, Xu Han went to take a shower, while Lu Chuan took advantage of the fact that it hadn't rained yet to clean up the prey he had picked up in the trap today.

By the time the two of them had finished cleaning up, it was already past nine o'clock. The weather was very dry, and they were in no mood to deal with the things in the space. They simply lay down on the rocking chair in the main room and went to sleep.

When you go to bed, leave the door to the main room open and the evening breeze will blow in, making it cooler than sleeping in the bedroom!

At about two o'clock in the middle of the night, I heard thunder outside, accompanied by the howling of strong winds.

To be precise, the two were woken up by the cold. The mountain breeze at night was still very cold, and they felt very cold after falling asleep.

I closed the door, got up and went back to the bedroom to continue sleeping.

The next morning, it was still raining, but now it was a light drizzle. Although it wasn't raining heavily, I would get soaked if I stood outside for a while. I couldn't do anything outside.

It seems that they have to stay at home. After breakfast, they both went about their own business.

Lu Chuan is weaving a backpack. Recently, he has been picking wild fruits and there is a great demand for backpacks. He is weaving more so that they will be more useful later.

Xu Han was dealing with the ice powder fruit and some miscellaneous things that needed to be sorted out in the space.
