Reborn amidst natural disaster, my childhood sweetheart and dad help me stock up and win effortlessl

After nearly a day of waiting, Jiang Li finally received good news.

The soldiers successfully dug a firebreak, preventing the wildfire from spreading further.

However, many soldiers also lost their lives as a result.

They did not die from being burned, but from heatstroke leading to the failure of all their organs.

Jiang Li looked at the official death list; the youngest soldier was only 18 years old, and the oldest was only 32.

She lowered her eyes, her eyelashes concealing the sadness and respect in her heart.

Jiang Li knew she was a selfish person and could only take care of her and Ye Jingmo.

But she admired these soldiers who were willing to sacrifice for the safety of the people; their spirit was noble.

A country can only exist for so long because it has such brave, tenacious and fearless people.

Having learned from this wildfire, officials plan to hire people to dig a new firebreak at a later date to prevent the wildfire from happening again and spreading.

The wildfire burned for three days and three nights before gradually being extinguished.

The sky was a fiery red, unchanged day and night, with black smoke billowing everywhere.

Jiang Li only felt a sense of relief when she saw the news that the wildfire had been extinguished.

As the wildfire was extinguished, Zhou Tian even sent Jiang Li a special message.

Let her know the latest news so she doesn't have to move out of the villa and find a new place to live.

Just then, Jiang Li took a fancy to the military's heat-resistant suits.

She specifically asked Zhou Tian if she could use her points to buy two sets of heat-insulating clothing.

Zhou Tian replied that the heat-insulating clothing is currently a semi-finished product and is not for sale.

He would notify Jiang Li as soon as the heat-resistant suits were released.

Jiang Li sighed in disappointment.

Ugh!

When will we be able to end this nocturnal lifestyle?

Ye Jingmo carried the sweet potato noodles that had been drying for a few days into the house and saw Jiang Li's dejected expression.

"What's wrong? Is there something you can't solve?"

Ye Jingmo placed the basin on the dining table and asked a question.

"I want to buy a heat-insulating suit, but Zhou Tian said it's a semi-finished product and can't be sold to the public."

Jiang Li waved her hand, indicating that she no longer wanted to discuss this topic.

Her gaze shifted to the bowl on the dining table.

"Have the sweet potato starches dried?"

Jiang Li walked to the restaurant and touched the sweet potato noodles in the basin with her hand.

The sweet potato starch dried into a large lump, and it took a little force to break its edges into pieces of powder.

Jiang Li cut out a large piece with a knife, and put the rest into her spatial storage.

"Brother Mo, shall we make sweet potato noodles? We'll have hot and sour noodles later?"

Since Jiang Li wanted to eat, Ye Jingmo went into the kitchen and started boiling water.

Jiang Li found the pasta press she had bought in the space.

This was a gift from the shop owner when Jiang Li bought appliances.

However, since it was a free gift, this pasta machine is manually operated.

Jiang Li couldn't be picky about something that was free.

Following the assembly instructions, Jiang Li installed all the parts.

As she twisted the manual handle of the pasta machine, she felt a bit of the feel of an old pencil sharpener.

Ye Jingmo poured hot water into the sweet potato starch and kneaded it into a smooth dough while it was still hot.

He divided the dough into small portions.

Jiang Li flattened it and put it into a dough press.

Listening to the "clunking" sound of the pasta machine, she found it quite relaxing.

Cut the flattened dough into small strips with a knife, then gently pull it apart, and the sweet potato noodles are ready.

After working for almost an hour, Jiang Li made eight pounds of sweet potato noodles.

Ye Jingmo placed the pot on the stove and added eight ounces of sweet potato noodles.

While cooking the rice noodles, he began making the sauce for the hot and sour noodles.

Crushed garlic, homemade chili sauce, mushroom sauce, vinegar, etc. are mixed together.

When Jiang Li saw Ye Jingmo scooping chili sauce, she thought that after the bok choy in the planting trough matured, she could use two troughs to plant crops such as chili peppers, garlic, and ginger.

After cooking, rinse the sweet potato noodles in cold water to ensure they have a chewy and elastic texture.

Ye Jingmo divided the sweet potato noodles into two bowls, one with more and one with less.

Pour the hot and sour rice noodle sauce evenly into the two bowls of rice noodles.

Ye Jingmo scooped three spoonfuls of snow-white lard and watched it slowly melt in the hot pan.

Once the oil was hot, Ye Jingmo poured the lard over the hot and sour noodles, and a pleasant sizzling sound immediately rang out.

Jiang Li poured fried peanuts, fried soybeans, and cucumber shreds into the hot and sour noodles.

She also took out lemon chicken feet and two bottles of yogurt from her storage space to accompany the hot and sour noodles.

The bright lights above the restaurant illuminated the reflections of Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo.

The hot and sour noodles were placed in a white plastic bowl, wisps of steam rising from them.

The enticing sour and spicy aroma entered the nasal cavity with each breath.

Jiang Li held a lemon chicken foot in one hand and used chopsticks to pick up hot and sour noodles in the other.

The smooth and chewy sweet potato noodles bounce into your mouth with a gentle suck.

The overpowering sour and spicy flavor makes its presence known on the tip of the tongue, stimulating the taste buds.

Lemon chicken feet were a snack that Jiang Li specially made before the natural disaster.

The chicken feet, with their slightly yellow skin, easily fall off the bone with a single bite.

The natural fruity tartness of the lemon adds flavor to the chicken feet.

Finally, Jiang Li inserted a straw into the yogurt and enjoyed this dessert.

Yogurt effectively neutralizes the spiciness of the hot and sour noodles.

Ye Jingmo went to the kitchen to prepare the dishes, while Jiang Li opened the door and came to the front yard.

Only a few scattered stars twinkled in the dark sky.

There was no wind tonight, making the weather even more muggy and uncomfortable.

Jiang Li opened the compost bin and poured out the liquid fertilizer inside.

It is a pale yellowish-brown liquid with a faint, unpleasant odor that is barely noticeable unless you smell it closely.

Put the sweet potato peels into the compost bin, pour in the inoculum, and then seal it.

The corn in the front yard has grown to the height of Jiang Li's calf, with three pairs of yellowish-green leaves on its green stalks.

In contrast, the soybeans look like seedlings, growing short, but with tender green leaves.

It was probably the corn that shielded it from the strong sunlight.

Jiang Li fertilizes and waters the land in the front yard.

She was thinking that if the water supply came online, she could connect water pipes to the fields, and then the water would automatically spray water when she turned on the tap.

But for now, it's just a thought.

Jiang Li went to the pool, used a brush to clean the moss off the stone wall, and then used a net to remove it.

The fish grew from the size of half a palm to the size of one and a half palms.

It shouldn't be long before we're able to kill them.

Jiang Li plans to stop raising fish until the temperature drops, as it consumes too much water.

Feed was sprinkled into the pond. The red feed floated on the surface of the water, and the fish kept opening and closing their mouths to swallow the feed.

After finishing her errands, Jiang Li returned to the house.

She didn't sit down to rest, but went straight to the chicken coop at the back gate.

Ye Jingmo was tidying up the paper mats in front of the chicken coop.

He also used deodorizer to disinfect and deodorize the paper mats, and didn't even leave the chicken coop untouched.

The chicks have started to grow feathers, but they are growing unevenly, appearing longer in some places and shorter in others, giving them a natural comical appearance.

Jiang Li added chicken feed and water to the bowl, and only after watching them swarm forward to peck at the food did she close the chicken coop.

I wonder how many of these chicks are hens?

Jiang Li was hoping that all the chickens would be hens.

The hen can not only lay eggs for her, but also provide her with meat.

What if there's a rooster?

Then let's slaughter them all and eat their meat.

Otherwise, when the rooster crows, it will directly announce to the whole world that her family raises chickens.

Jiang Li had no desire to cause trouble.

Jiang Li walked towards the stairwell while lost in thought.

Suddenly, her gaze inadvertently fell on the jelly.

It crouched low, its paw pads extended sharp claws, and its eyes were fixed on the floor by the doorway.

From Jiang Li's perspective, there appeared to be a red rope in front of the jelly.

Huh, where did Jelly find that red string?

Jiang Li found it a little strange, but she assumed that Jelly was practicing her hunting skills.

I'm just worried that the jelly might swallow the rope.

Then you might not be able to find a veterinarian to operate on it.

So she went over and wanted to give Jelly a different toy.

But when Jiang Li saw the rope in person, he was stunned and goosebumps rose all over his body.

A centipede that was over ten centimeters long.

It was larger than any centipede Jiang Li had ever seen.

Where did it come from?

Jiang Li crossed her arms tightly, her face filled with resistance and fear.

The centipede's shell is bright red, which shows how potent its venom is.

Its two slender tentacles swung menacingly, and its sickle-shaped venomous jaws opened and closed intermittently.

Each segment has a pair of legs, so many that it's impossible to count them all.

"Brother Mo, help me!"

Jiang Li felt weak in the knees and dared not go forward.

Jiang Li, who was fearless in the face of countless thugs, was utterly helpless when confronted with snakes, centipedes, and other animals.

Hearing Jiang Li's tearful cries, Ye Jingmo's face darkened.

He quickly walked to the living room and carefully scanned Jiang Li's entire body.

"what happened?"

Ye Jingmo's concerned inquiry made Jiang Li feel like she had found a reliable support.

Jiang Li pointed towards the door, and Ye Jingmo looked in the direction she was pointing.

The centipede, which was about ten centimeters long, was propping up half of its body and swaying on the ground.

It seems to be a warning to the jelly.

Getting bitten by this centipede is no joke.

Ye Jingmo asked Jiang Li to bring a large-diameter glass.

They tiptoed behind the centipede.

Ye Jingmo held the glass steadily and slowly placed it towards the centipede.

Jiang Li held her breath nervously, afraid of disturbing Ye Jingmo's movements.

Ye Jingmo's hand stopped half an inch above the centipede.

He needs to make sure he can catch it in one strike.

The centipede seemed to have lost its patience with the jelly's provocation.

The moment it was about to make a move, Ye Jingmo seized the opportunity and directly slipped the glass over the centipede's body.

Everything happens in a flash of lightning.

The centipede crawled wildly around inside the glass, trying to find a way out.

Jiang Li exhaled a breath of cold air, and only when she relaxed did she realize the stiffness in her limbs.

Ye Jingmo pressed his hand firmly against the glass, preventing any possibility of the centipede emerging.

Jiang Li squatted down and looked at the centipede in the glass. Its abdomen was covered with a black shell.

Its feet kept touching the surface of the glass, and it occasionally used its antennae to explore the environment inside the glass.

How do I kill this centipede?

Jiang Li had no saintly intention of letting it out the door.

If it sneaks in again, and isn't as lucky as this time when Jelly spotted it,

If she and Ye Jingmo were to take a bite, she wouldn't know where to cry and complain.

"Prepare a brazier and burn them to death."

Ye Jingmo took a piece of cardboard and slowly passed it under the glass until it completely blocked the mouth of the glass.

Jiang Li took a stainless steel basin, put wood in it, and lit the wood with newspaper.

The sparks from the brazier crackled and popped.

Ye Jingmo held a glass in one hand and a piece of cardboard in the other, and steadily moved them over the brazier.

The centipede was crawling on the cardboard, and it seemed strange that the texture was different from the one it had just walked on.

Ye Jingmo released his grip on the cardboard.

The centipede and the cardboard fell into the brazier together with a "whoosh" sound.

A smell of roasted meat wafted from the pot.

Jiang Li waited a minute to make sure the centipede was really dead before putting out the fire.

She rummaged through the ashes and found the charred and twisted corpse of a centipede, which still smelled of meat.

Thinking that it shouldn't be wasted, Jiang Li put the centipede's corpse into the chicken coop.

The chick had never seen this thing before.

They will grab you with their claws and jump away, or peck you with their beaks and shake you off.

Seemingly having tasted the deliciousness of the centipede, the chicks began to scramble for it.

Two chicks were pecking at one end of the centipede and tearing at it desperately.

Seeing the chicks eating happily, Jiang Li walked back to the living room.

Ye Jingmo was using a broom to search the corners under the sofa.

He was afraid that other centipedes might get in.

Jiang Li thought it couldn't be that outrageous, could it?

It would be good enough if even one centipede could get into the house, how could there possibly be other centipedes?

The next second, Ye Jingmo swept out a centipede, slapping Jiang Li's face repeatedly.

This centipede is a little smaller than the previous one, but not by much.

Jiang Li's face turned pale instantly.

The thought of a centipede crawling onto her bed and biting her, or crawling into her ear, while she was sleeping...

The more she thought about it, the more her scalp tingled.

Ye Jingmo used the same method again to catch the centipede.

Jiang Li relit the fire and gave the centipede a cremation.

Now she wasn't in a hurry to put out the fire.

She also took a broom and searched the hidden corners of the house with Ye Jingmo.

With Jiang Li in this room, not a single centipede can appear.

After a thorough search, it was determined that there were only these two centipedes in the house.

But Jiang Li's heart was still uneasy.

Now that the centipede problem is solved, who knows when another centipede might run into the house?

Jiang Li frowned. What could possibly prevent centipedes from entering the house?

She had a flash of inspiration and remembered the insecticide powder she had bought before.

It is said to be able to kill any kind of insect.

Jiang Li planned to go around the house and sprinkle insecticide powder all over it, otherwise she wouldn't feel at ease at all.

Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo each took charge of their respective areas: one was in charge of the front yard, and the other was in charge of the back yard.

Sprinkle insecticide powder around the corners of the villa.

Jiang Li sprinkled the li leaves very carefully, leaving no gaps.

They were afraid that centipedes would enter the house through the gaps.

The amount of insecticide powder used was also very generous, without the slightest bit of stinginess.

Despite the sweltering heat, centipedes still managed to crawl into the house.

This is truly perplexing.

Jiang Li was already drenched in sweat when she returned to the house.

Jelly, having had its toy taken away, meowed at Jiang Li in dissatisfaction.

It seemed to be asking where its toy was.

Jiang Li smiled wryly. If she really had to let the jelly and the centipede play together, her heart would jump out of her chest.

She flicked Jelly's little black nose, causing Jelly to wince and gently bite her hand.

It's a little itchy but not very painful.

"Next time you encounter a centipede, remember to run away quickly."

Otherwise, if it bites you, you'll scream in pain.

Jiang Li took out a mouse-shaped plush toy from her space. It was gray and realistic, and it could even crawl.

Jelly's attention was immediately drawn to Jiang Li, and she stopped bothering him.
