Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 320 - 312: The Fully Ripened Peach
"Thank you~" Bai Jie and the others said one after another.
They were really too hungry, they couldn't even remember when they last had porridge, their memory was somewhat blurry.
All notions of ladylike images, of chewing slowly and swallowing carefully, were cast aside.
During this past year of the apocalypse, they had learned to eat in the shortest amount of time possible.
"Don't rush, there's still more." The auntie, seeing their state, remembered her days in Jiefang City, which were not much different from theirs, and her current lifestyle was all thanks to Li Yu.
Thinking of this, the auntie gratefully looked at Li Yu.
Li Yu felt a gaze upon him, saw it was the auntie, saw the look in her eyes, and instantly understood what the auntie was thinking.
He walked over, gently pressed on the auntie's shoulder, and said softly, "Auntie, we're family."
The auntie nodded vigorously, her eyes brimming with a hint of tears, as she recalled the time when she was alone with the child, and in those difficult circumstances, just when she was about to collapse, she met Li Yu and the others.
Yes, family.
In the apocalypse, the safety of family is more important than anything.
....
Noon.
Yutong, along with Bai Jie and the other five, arranged their accommodation.
In these three rows of houses, surveillance was set up, and every room could be monitored through the screens.
And the rooms arranged for these five people were right in view of several cameras.
Xiao Shi was originally supposed to stay in the infirmary because her fever had not completely subsided.
After taking medicine last night and eating breakfast this morning, she felt much better, so she got some antipyretics to take regularly and was allowed to go to her own room.
None of them had anticipated that in this subzero environment, they would still be assured of hot water!
Building 2, Room 314, Yutong brought Bai Jie and the others into this room.
After bringing Bai Jie and the others into the room, Yutong said, "Bai Jie, you'll stay in this room. Here are the bathing supplies for you."
Bai Jie quickly took them and said, "Okay, thank you~"
"There is hot water in the room, lights can be turned on, but during the day you should try to go to the basement, we have an underground farming base there." Yutong said.
"Okay, sure."
"Alright, Sister Yutong."
....
Yutong arranged a room for each of them and then left.
Bai Jie's room.
She turned on the heating, and as the room's temperature gradually rose, she could feel the warmth.
She took off her coat.
Two Tuantuans jumped out.
Standing in front of the mirror, her hair somewhat disheveled, but her face bore an allure.
Subtle and faint.
Her long legs, clad in black pantyhose.
Presenting an astonishing curve.
At her age, like a ripe peach.
What a pity...
Bai Jie suddenly thought of Li Yu's cold interrogation of them all today, that questioning, exuding an indisputable attitude, it was this cold demeanor that made her expression waver momentarily.
She turned on the faucet.
The floor became wet.
From the bathroom, there came faint, barely audible sounds, filled with extreme repression.
But there was an irresistible delicate whiff.
...
First floor.
Dining room.
The room was as warm as spring.
It carried a kind of steaming aura.
The past two days.
Li Yu still went to Mountain Pond, where he drilled a hole through nearly half a meter of ice, finally breaking through to let the fish beneath breathe.
Once the hole was opened, many fish appeared on that side, so Li Yu simply caught a few to bring up.
In winter, even in subzero temperatures, fish are not easily frozen to death. The lake may freeze over, but the water beneath remains relatively warm, and fish are cold-blooded creatures.
Fish have a high purine content in their bodies, allowing normal energy transformation and metabolism even in very cold waters. Generally, only a few species of fish freeze to death, like tilapia, because they are tropical fish and not suited to the cold.
Today's lunch consisted of: braised fish, hot and sour radish strips, and soybean sprouts.
Three dishes, not many, but they were shocking enough for Bai Jie and the others for quite some time.
They could never dream that in this post-apocalyptic world, they could still have such food.
It was like living in a dream.
The surgeon, receiving her share of the food, sat down dumbfounded. When she took the first bite of the braised fish, flavored with the essence of Hex technology, that familiar taste, tears streamed down her face.
The taste she hadn't had for so long.
"Mom." Xiao Lan said through tears.
Not far from them, Song Min and others were eating their rice, watching their reactions.
The optimistic Xiao Han laughed while eating, and Song Min hit her on the head with chopsticks: "What's there to laugh about? Think back to when you first came here; you weren't much better off than them."
Optimistic Xiao Han suddenly stopped laughing, covering her face with her right hand. Just thinking back to the first time she had a hot meal here, she ended up crying for half an hour.
It seemed to evoke some unpleasant memories, those memories were the most painful experiences in their lives.
Only those who have felt the pain of hunger really understand it.
Over a year into the apocalypse, before coming to the base, they hardly had a full meal.
"Bai Jie, have we come to heaven?" Xiao Lan didn't make much of a fuss, simply eating and speaking.
"I don't know, but I want to stay. I must stay." Bai Jie's mind flashed with the image of that tall figure as she spoke.
"I understand, there's hot water here, food, and it's safe. I also want to stay."
"Mm-hm. You're right." Bai Jie said.
Sitting across from Bai Jie, the girl with dusky skin who majored in agricultural science, scrutinized the soybean sprouts and said blandly:
"These soybean sprouts weren't grown well, they should be soaked in 60-degree hot water for 2 minutes.
Then rinse them with cold water twice; this helps stimulate seed temperature, then you can put the seeds in a sprouting container..."
Second Uncle, passing by with a basin ready to be cleaned up after eating, happened to overhear the woman speaking and stopped in surprise.
"What did you do before?" he asked in amazement.
The girl with dusky skin raised her head, saw Second Uncle, seemingly unfamiliar, but Second Uncle had seen them.
After hesitating for a moment, she still said: "I studied agricultural science before, it's about, you know, farming."
Hearing this, Second Uncle looked at the girl's dark complexion.
This was clearly the look of a professional!
Just like assessing a programmer's level by their hair, they tend to be proportionately related.
The professional complexion inspired immediate trust.
"It's great you studied agriculture, great indeed. Let Li Yu introduce us later.
We have a planting base in the cellar; you can come and take a look later, see if you can help out."
Second Uncle said cheerfully.
