100. Chapter 100: An Everyday Meal in the Apocalypse



The next day, Yang Qing woke up and found herself still in Leng Yi's arms. He hugged her tightly, and her head rested on his arm. She didn't know if his hands were numb after sleeping like this all night.

Yang Qing wanted to pull his hand away from under her neck, but Leng Yi hugged her tighter.

Yang Qing's face flushed and she gently pushed Leng Yi, "Leng Yi, Leng Yi, it's time to get up!"

Leng Yi hugged her tightly, his magnetic voice slightly hoarse, "Sleep a little longer!"

"I'm hungry!" Yang Qing had no choice but to lie.

Leng Yi immediately opened his eyes and said, "Then I'll make breakfast."

"I can do it." Yang Qing blushed, "Just let me go first."

Leng Yi lowered his head, his eyes full of smiles, and kissed Yang Qing on the forehead, "No, I'll do it."

After saying that, he turned over and sat up, quickly getting dressed.

Yang Qing hid in the quilt with only his head sticking out to look at the man. As expected of a military man, his movements were quick.

Leng Yi moved the things he harvested yesterday into the house.

"Why move the things in? Just put them in the room over there." Yang Qing said.

"A lot of them are food. The kitchen has been moved here, so it's more convenient to take things here." Leng Yi said with a smile.

"Look what this is?" Leng Yi opened a package and showed off.

Yang Qing sat up and took a look. They were actually fresh tomatoes, potatoes and bok choy. She had all of these in her space, but she had never dared to take them out.

"Where did it come from?" Yang Qing was surprised.

"I exchanged them with someone." Leng Yi smiled. "I know you've always wanted to eat fresh vegetables. The ones I planted last time all froze to death, so I exchanged some for them."

"Isn't the price small?" Yang Qing asked. It was almost harder than climbing to heaven to eat fresh vegetables in this snowy weather. These should have been stored in a cold storage before the end of the world.

"Not bad!" Leng Yi said nothing more and took out another bag of flour. "Let me make some steamed buns later, or dumplings?"

Yang Qing is from the south and should like buns more.

"It's too troublesome, and it needs to ferment." Yang Qing said.

"It's okay, this is self-raising flour, it will rise quickly. We have an electric heater in our house, just put it next to it and it will rise in a few minutes." Leng Yi said.

"Okay, it's up to you." Yang Qing nodded. It's good to have a boyfriend who can cook.

"Then let's make buns with beef filling. It's just the right time to chop the filling while it's fermenting, so it won't waste time." Leng Yi said.

Yang Qing put on his clothes and said, "I went out yesterday and found some things. I'll go get them."

Yang Qing went to the room and packed up the bacon, salted fish, dried vegetables and other dry goods he had taken out of the space and prepared to take them over.

Lu Lin woke up early and saw Yang Qing sleeping in Leng Yi's room, so she didn't go over to disturb him.

"Qingqing, did you and Leng Yi last night..." Lu Lin said as she put her two thumbs together.

"What nonsense are you talking about? We didn't do anything..." Yang Qing blushed.

Lu Lin laughed, "We're already in the same bed, and we haven't done anything yet. Who would believe that?"

Yang Qing's face flushed, "Really..."

Lu Lin was surprised. "Is it you who doesn't want to or Leng Yi who can't?"

Yang Qing rolled her eyes, "Neither, we were just tired and slept together."

"Oh!" Lu Lin deliberately stretched out her voice, "We're just sleeping together?"

Yang Qing was embarrassed and helpless, "Can you be more serious? We just started dating, how can it be so fast..."

"What's the big deal? We are all adults, full of youthful energy and passion..." Lu Lin chuckled.

Yang Qing glared at her and said, "I'm going to ignore you."

Carry a big bag of things to Leng Yi's room.

Leng Yi took a look and said, "You've gained quite a lot!"

"Good luck!" Yang Qing smiled and took out the things and put them into the cabinet next to him.

Leng Yi looked at the stove and said, "I want to connect the water pipe to the house to make washing vegetables more convenient."

"By the way, I wonder if there's enough water in the water tank up there. Should I boil some snow water?"

I didn’t eat vegetables before, so I didn’t use much water, just to cook noodles and wash dishes. Now that I have vegetables, I need more water, so it’s more convenient to collect water to wash them.

"There is still water. I added some snow in it. The snow has melted and there is enough." Yang Qing said quickly. In fact, she would add some water from the space from time to time, so there was always water in the water tank.

"Yesterday I met Lin Zhen and her brother who were selling us rice. I asked them to get us two more water tanks. It should be enough to store more water in the future."

"Oh!" Leng Yi nodded, seemingly without any doubt.

"I'll get some water to make the dough rise, and then I'll connect the water pipe later." Leng Yi said.

I took some water in a basin, heated it in a pot, kneaded the dough until smooth, and set it aside to ferment.

Then I went to the kitchen and took down the sink. I sawed a hole in the table where the gas stove was placed and put the sink in. I connected a faucet and a drain pipe to the outside.

Yang Qing looked at the busy Leng Yi and was really curious. How could he know everything?

"Then your room will become a kitchen?" Yang Qing said.

"It doesn't matter. I like the smell of cooking. At worst, I can put an exhaust fan on this window next time and put a cover on this side. Open it when in use and close it when not in use. Then I won't have to worry about cold air coming in." Leng Yi said.

Yang Qing nodded. This man is really smart and knows how to live.

It's a blessing to have a man like this around you in the last days.

After finishing all this, Leng Yi started to chop the stuffing and season it.

When the dough has risen, knead it to release the air, then wrap it with beef filling.

The buns are beautifully wrapped, each one is evenly sized, round and plump.

There was porridge cooking in the rice cooker on one side, and the room was steaming hot, full of life.

Yang Qing just stayed in bed and watched Leng Yi do it. This man was so handsome and capable, he was really a good husband candidate.

After all the buns are wrapped, put them in the steamer and steam them. It will only take about ten minutes for the buns to come out of the steamer. The moment you open them, the whole house is filled with delicious aroma.

Sure enough, it smells delicious.

"It smells so good!" Yang Qing sniffed.

Leng Yi smiled, "Is it time to eat, or should I go to your place?"

"Yeah!" Yang Qing nodded and helped to carry the things over.

Lu Lin quickly cleared the coffee table. "It smells so good. There are buns to eat?" Lu Lin was surprised.

"Leng Yi did this, isn't it amazing?" Yang Qing said with pride.

"That's amazing!" Lu Lin gave a thumbs up. "We're probably the only ones who can eat fresh meat buns in the apocalypse!"

What seems like a very ordinary breakfast is actually very precious in the end times.

Leng Yi smiled and said, "By the way, I also made some side dishes!"

After saying that, he took out a few packets of pickled mustard greens, dried radish, pickled bamboo shoots and other side dishes from the room and poured them into a plate.

Drinking porridge with side dishes and hot buns is so delicious!

"My brother-in-law is so awesome. I've benefited from it too." Lu Lin praised him while eating.

Yang Qing rolled his eyes at her, but did not deny it.

Leng Yi smiled and said, "As long as you like it!"
