Chapter 131 Moon Appreciation
On the evening of the second day, the moon, round as a jade plate, hung in the sky, emitting a faint light.
Qin Yue and Qin Yu came to visit Jiang Li, bringing a piece of smoked pork and three cans of food.
Upon seeing the scene in the front yard, Qin Yue couldn't help but exclaim "Wow!"
A cornfield laden with fruit looks like a golden ocean from afar.
Qin Yue moved closer to the corn and gently touched its leaves with her fingers, faintly smelling the sweet aroma of corn.
"Sister Jiang Li, your corn is growing really well."
Qin Yue's eyes sparkled as she earnestly praised him.
Qin Yu walked over to Qin Yue, looked at the corn, and asked,
"Were these corn varieties specifically selected for planting?"
"Yes, this is a drought-resistant corn variety that I bought for my research project."
The weather is just right now, so I planted it.
Qin Yue thought Jiang Li's choice of major was really excellent; it's now a highly sought-after major.
If Jiang Li wanted to, she could enter the base's plantation and find a job as a planter. She heard that she could earn six points a day and also get a meal a day.
In the post-apocalyptic world, farming is also a skilled profession.
Being a planter is a job that everyone envies.
Reaching the edge of the pond, Jiang Li stopped and picked up a net from the side.
"Sister Jiang Li, are you going to clean the pool now?"
"Why don't we make dinner first, and then we'll help you with the rest?"
Seeing Jiang Li's actions, Qin Yue asked him in confusion.
It was only when she reached the edge of the pool that she realized how narrow-minded she had been.
Several fish were swimming freely in the pond.
Jiang Li selected a relatively large fish and used a landing net to scoop it up.
The live fish struggled with all its might in the landing net, its tail thrashing incessantly.
"Sister Jiang Li, you can still raise fish in the pond?"
What an amazing place this is! I wish I could live here.
Qin Yue was like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, utterly astonished by everything she saw.
"These are small fish that I caught in the stream and kept in a pond. I fed them dried locusts so they could grow slowly."
If you'd like, you can catch a fish to take home and raise later.
Qin Yue rejected the idea, saying, "We don't even have wells there, so where would we get the water to raise a fish?"
Once the well is dug, we'll consider buying a fish to keep as a food reserve.
Let's leave it for now.
The three entered the house, and Qin Yue and Qin Yu paused slightly in their steps upon seeing the bright scene before them.
It's obvious that there's electricity in this.
"Is this solar power?"
Qin Yu turned to look at Jiang Li, his tone, which should have been one of doubt, was full of certainty.
Jiang Li nodded without denying it.
After all, the two families have been in contact, so they're bound to know something about each other.
Moreover, solar panels can be purchased from the official online store, so they are not particularly rare items for them.
With a new addition to the household, both animals are very alert.
Pudding was quite familiar with Qin Yue and Qin Yu, and it stepped forward in a friendly manner to sniff their scent, wagging its tail a few times.
Jelly climbed onto the cat tree with a wary look on her face, her eyes fixed on them, as if afraid they might do something harmful.
Jiang Li took the fish from the net into the kitchen.
Then, I boiled a pot of hot water in the kettle, added black tea to the teapot, and the fragrant aroma of tea wafted out from the pot.
The bright red and clear tea is poured into a cup. Take a small sip, and you'll feel the fragrance and sweet aftertaste of the tea.
Ye Jingmo was in the kitchen, preparing dinner for tonight.
He sliced the pork that Qin Yu had brought into thin, gauze-like pieces and set them aside for later use.
At this moment, the small pot on the stove began to open and close with a popping sound.
He opened the pot lid, and a delicious aroma of mushroom stewed with meat wafted out.
The chicken was prepared early in the morning.
Ye Jingmo cut the chicken into evenly sized pieces and marinated it with salt, sugar, dark soy sauce and other seasonings.
Place it in a well-ventilated area and marinate for half a day until the chicken turns a nice reddish-brown color.
Soak the dried mushrooms that were previously dried in the sun in water until they rehydrate, then cut them into small pieces with a knife.
In the afternoon, put the chicken and mushrooms in a pot and simmer over low heat.
An hour later, you'll have a pot of tender and flavorful mushroom and chicken stew.
Qin Yu volunteered to process the fish that Jiang Li had caught.
Qin Yue felt embarrassed to just sit there with Jiang Li, so she wanted to go to the kitchen to help.
Jiang Li stopped her.
"The kitchen isn't very big, and it's inconvenient to operate if too many people are crowded in."
Most of the dishes are ready.
We'll just wait here.
Ye Jingmo took a cabbage out of the refrigerator, washed it, and tore it into strips by hand.
Pour the freshly sliced pork into the pot and fry until the pork fat is rendered. Then add the torn cabbage strips.
Stir-fry over high heat, and a dish of stir-fried cabbage and pork slices is ready.
The bright green leaves, infused with the aroma of lard, were intoxicatingly fragrant.
Qin Yu handed the cleaned fish to Ye Jingmo.
Ye Jingmo did not intend to take any complicated steps.
He sliced ginger into thin strips, stuffed them into the fish's belly, drizzled a little soy sauce over them, and then put the fish in a steamer.
Steaming is the best way to bring out the original flavor of fish.
After the fish was steamed, Ye Jingmo poured hot oil over it, and the fish skin sizzled.
This further enhances the flavor of the fish.
For the last dish, Ye Jingmo planned to make a tomato and egg soup, making it a three-dish-and-one-soup meal.
Cut the tomatoes into small pieces, and their sweet and sour juice will flow out.
Ye Jingmo lightly fried the tomato chunks before pouring water into the pot.
Once the water in the pot has slowly come to a boil, pour in the beaten egg mixture.
The egg strands, like pale yellow ribbons, undulated in the red soup.
Add a little salt to taste, and you can enjoy the sweet and sour tomato and egg soup.
They brought all three dishes and a soup to the table, and the four of them sat neatly in their chairs.
As the chopsticks moved, conversations continued at the table, creating a lively and enthusiastic atmosphere.
After a hearty meal, Ye Jingmo set up a table in the front yard, and the four of them moved there to admire the moon.
The mooncakes made the day before were laid out on the table.
The golden mooncakes were neatly stacked into a small mountain, with tiny crumbs of crust scattered in the bowl.
Jiang Li carried the tea and poured a cup for everyone.
The clear, reddish-brown tea in the cup reflects the bright, round moon in the sky.
Jiang Li picked up her teacup, blew away the steam from the rim, and sipped the tea.
The tea, with its bittersweet aftertaste, seems to whet one's appetite.
Qin Yue picked up a mooncake, put it in her mouth, and took a bite.
The crisp, thin pastry wraps around the sweet and smooth red bean paste, which is perfect with tea.
If you take a big bite, you can taste the salty and savory egg yolk, with the sweet and salty flavors intertwined.
All four of them praised the mooncakes they had made.
The sweetness of mooncakes dispels the bitterness of life and brings joy to people's hearts.
This was the happiest and most peaceful moment for the four of them after the apocalyptic catastrophe.
