"What about the pigs? They eat pig feed. Don't we have to come in and feed them every day in the future?" Lu Lin asked.
Leng Yi thought for a moment and said, "I'll make an automatic feeder. Have you ever used an automatic feeder for cats or dogs? I'll just make it a little bigger."
Lu Lin and Yang Qing shook their heads. They had never used it. Although Yang Qing had a dog, she fed it herself and left it with Lu Lin when she was not free. She never let it stay at home alone.
"The automatic feeder is actually very simple. It has a storage box on top with feed in it, and a trough on the bottom. When the feed at the bottom is finished and emptied, the feed on top will automatically slide down and you can eat it."
"I'll find a large box or cabinet and modify it. I can put 100 to 200 kilograms of feed at a time. That's enough for them to eat for several days. Even if I don't enter the space for a few days, they won't starve."
"Just put a sink next to it and it will be fine." Leng Yi said.
Yang Qing nodded. Leng Yi was so smart and knew everything.
"Even if we are busy right now, the fence is not too high. They will jump out when they are hungry. With so much space for things, are you afraid that they will starve to death?" Leng Yi smiled.
Yang Qing pursed her lips and said, "That's right. There are so many vegetables planted over there. At worst, they can eat them all. They can't starve themselves."
"But I heard that raising pigs is very smelly. Do we need to clean it regularly?" Lu Lin asked.
"Yes, but the environment here is so good, we only need to clean it once every few days." Leng Yi said, "There used to be pig farming in our village, and the pig manure was swept directly into the fish pond for the fish to eat. The water from the fish pond could be used to irrigate the fields, and it contained a lot of fertilizer."
"Fish can also be raised in the fields, so the fields can be recycled."
Lu Lin's eyes lit up, "I've heard of this. I heard that rice paddy fish is delicious."
Leng Yi smiled, "Yes, if we really want to turn this place into a farm, we can recycle it and make great use of it. We can dig a hole to ferment the cow and sheep manure, and when it's fermented, we can use it as organic fertilizer to water the vegetables. We can make full use of it."
"But the soil in this space is so fertile that the vegetables grow well even without fertilizer. It seems that there is no need for so much hard work."
Yang Qing nodded. "We don't have many now. The space is so big, they might just degrade naturally without us having to clean it."
Leng Yi found an unused small wardrobe, modified it into an automatic feeder, and put the feed in it.
The two little pigs soon began to eat with relish, drinking the well water with great satisfaction.
The three of them went to cut the grass again, and when they were done, they left the space.
Yang Qing caught a fish and said, "Let's make boiled fish today. I haven't eaten it for a long time and I'm craving it."
"I'll do it." Lu Lin took the fish with a smile.
She felt that she was able to live so well in the apocalypse entirely because of Yang Qing, so she wanted to do as much as she could and didn't want to become a parasite.
"How about we have a barbecue?" Leng Yi suggested.
They have a barbecue oven and space for so much food. It was difficult to take it out before because of Li Shengnan and the others, but now there are only three of them, so there is nothing to worry about.
"Okay!" Yang Qing nodded. "I haven't had barbecue for a long time. I really want to eat it."
"Then let's grill this fish first. Take out the other ingredients and I'll wash them." Lu Lin said with a smile.
Yang Qing took out a bunch of ingredients he had bought before, including beef, mutton, squid, oysters, leeks, green peppers, enoki mushrooms, eggplant, as well as gluten, rice cakes, etc., with a rich variety.
"So many?" Leng Yi was surprised.
"I haven't eaten for so long, I want to eat enough today!" Yang Qing smiled.
Lu Lin washed all the vegetables. Leng Yi killed the fish first, then skewered the beef and mutton, and chopped the squid and oysters with garlic and chili peppers.
Yang Qing found barbecue ingredients, oil brushes, and disposable plates from the space.
Leng Yi brought out the barbecue grill, lit the charcoal, put on the grill, and placed the ingredients on it one by one.
Lu Lin was brushing oil and sprinkling barbecue ingredients on the side, and soon all kinds of aromas wafted in the air.
The weather is still very hot, so these are made in Lu Lin's room. There is air conditioning, so she is not afraid of the heat. The exhaust fan that was installed before has not been removed, so she turns on the exhaust fan to expel the smoke.
Waves of barbecue smell also wafted out.
People nearby sniffed the fragrance. Who is having barbecue? It smells so good!
During this period, we didn’t even have anything to eat, but we still had barbecues. I was so envious.
When the grilling was almost done, the three of them moved over chairs and enjoyed the grilled skewers and drinking cold beer. It was so relaxing.
Aqi and Xiaoxue also ate the barbecue with big mouthfuls, it was so delicious.
"Qingqing, I don't think we lived so well before the end of the world." Lu Lin looked at Yang Qing.
"Yes, back then, to make a living, we had to go out early and come back late every day. We also had to endure the pressure from colleagues and the scolding from the boss. If we wanted to eat something good, we had to think about whether our salary was enough and whether we could even eat it."
"I don't dare to ask for leave even when I'm sick, for fear of having my salary deducted."
Lu Lin smiled, "Yeah, who isn't like that? At that time, I felt that life was suffering."
"On the contrary, now I'm free. I don't have to go to work, no one supervises me, I can get up whenever I want, and eat whatever I want. It's much better than before." Lu Lin looked at Yang Qing, "Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't be living such a good life."
Yang Qing smiled, "We are sisters. Didn't we agree before that we would be together for the rest of our lives?"
"A lifetime?" Leng Yi was a little surprised.
"Yes." Yang Qing smiled. "We both have no parents, so we felt we had to rely on each other. We also felt men were unreliable. So we both said we wouldn't get married or have children, and we would just spend our lives together."
"When we get old, we'll go to a nursing home together, and even die together. I just never thought I'd meet you!"
Yang Qing looked at Leng Yi, then at Lu Lin, "But don't worry, I won't abandon you even if you have him. We can still be together for the rest of our lives."
Lu Lin smiled and said, "Okay!"
Leng Yi nodded, "It's really rare for you to have such a friendship."
"Actually, I'm just like Lu Lin. It wasn't until I met you that I felt my life was better than before. Although I later worked as a bodyguard for rich people and earned a good salary, I didn't have freedom. I couldn't do many things, and some people looked down on us."
"Now I not only have a wife, but also a younger sister. My life is freer than before and I can do whatever I want. It's really better than before."
"It's all thanks to you!" Lu Lin looked at Yang Qing.
"It's because of the space, and I'm also blessed by it." Yang Qing said.
Lu Lin shook her head. "Even without the space, your life won't be too bad with your abilities. It will just be a little bit hard, but your spirit will be free."
"If there really is no space, Leng Yi's abilities should be much greater than ours, and he would live a better life." Yang Qing looked at Leng Yi.
"There is no if. The good life we have now is brought to us by you. You are our lucky star." Leng Yi looked at Yang Qing with tenderness in his eyes.
