"Boss, why don't you change everything to instant noodles?" Xiaocao, who usually cooks for everyone, asked after seeing this.
The eldest brother usually looks for food just to fill his stomach.
Judging from the boss's personality, he should replace everything with instant noodles, not sausages.
"This is not a replacement, this is a gift from the boss." A Qian couldn't hold it in any longer and excitedly shared it with everyone.
In his mouth, he praised Su Yinhe to the sky.
"Really? That's so good." I'll give you five sausages just for tidying up the shelves.
Xiaocao and Agou didn't quite believe it.
There is no such good thing.
"Really, the boss is really beautiful and kind-hearted." She is also very gentle and not fierce at all.
"It's okay, I know my limits. Just Ah Qian and I will go. If we don't come back tomorrow... I'll leave my clothes to you." Most of the children living in the dilapidated houses only have one set of clothes, which they have to wear all the time.
Wang Xin is better, he has two pieces of clothes.
"Then we can...eat instant noodles today." Ah Qian looked at the instant noodles, his stomach growling.
He drank a lot of water when he went there today, but water was not enough to fill him up. He was so hungry now that he could eat a mutant beast.
"...I've already soaked the instant noodles. I'll save the sausage for now. I'll use it to exchange for contribution points later."
"How about exchanging the instant noodles? A packet of instant noodles can be exchanged for a lot of things. If you save some, maybe..." Xiaocao was a little reluctant. Although she also craved instant noodles, she was responsible for cooking for everyone and always thought about how to fill her stomach instead of eating well.
"Let's soak it."
After Wang Xin made the decision, Xiaocao didn't say much. She wanted to eat, too.
Xiaocao was in charge of cooking. She didn't just make the noodles in a bubble, but boiled them instead. She thought that if she boiled them longer and till they were softer, the noodles would become larger and more durable.
Fortunately, the pot is big enough to cook six packets of instant noodles.
As soon as the instant noodles were put down, Xiaocao thought of something. He hurriedly found a few leaves and threw them into the fire. A stinky smell filled the whole house and then drifted away.
"Xiaocao, why are you..."
"The smell of instant noodles is too strong and people will smell it. I burned some mutant wormwood leaves to cover up the smell." Their place is shabby and there are not many people, but there are still some.
The instant noodles were cooked for a long time. After Xiaocao sprinkled the vegetable packet and sauce packet into the noodles and stirred them with chopsticks, she could clearly hear the sound of everyone swallowing their saliva, including Xiaocao herself.
Only when the instant noodles became puffy did Xiaocao say, "It's done."
The instant noodles were cooked for too long and expanded greatly. They looked soft and did not look good.
But for them who are hungry every day, this pot of soft-boiled instant noodles is more delicious than any other food they can think of.
They took their own bowls and chopsticks, filled their bowls with instant noodles, and slurped them while inhaling, not caring about the heat.
No one spoke, everyone was eating noodles as fast as they could, occasionally exclaiming when they found some beef cubes.
Children who were starving every day didn't have big appetites, so after finishing all the instant noodles in the pot, everyone was almost half full. No one was willing to waste the instant noodle soup in the pot, so they scooped it up in bowls and drank it mouthful by mouthful.
Hot and spicy, but very refreshing.
"I declare that instant noodles are the most delicious food I have ever eaten. They are even better than roasted sweet potatoes." A Qian drank the spicy instant noodle soup and kept inhaling, but did not stop.
The noodles are delicious and the soup is tasty too.
"That's right. Let's go look for more. I still want to eat instant noodles." After drinking the instant noodle soup, someone licked the bowl and chopsticks carefully to feel the flavor of the seasoning.
Most of them were only two or three years old when the apocalypse began, and had never eaten anything like it. When they grew up, their parents died, and they were left alone to survive in the apocalypse, unable to afford such exorbitantly priced food as instant noodles.
But I often hear the elderly mention this kind of food. They will describe to them how delicious instant noodles are, saying that before the apocalypse, they didn't appreciate them and thought they were junk food. Only after the apocalypse did they realize how rare junk food is.
They simply don't understand how food can be garbage.
All food is edible and can save lives. Regardless of whether it tastes good or not, it is still food. How can useless garbage be compared to food?
Their perception of instant noodles is that they are expensive.
They have seen people who have enough food exchange a bag of grain for a packet of instant noodles.
That's a bag of grain.
After eating the grass, Xiaocao felt that it was delicious, but also felt a little regretful.
Instant noodles are really delicious. If you take out such delicious instant noodles to exchange, how much food can you get in return?
"Then you guys go and look around again, but don't get caught. If you do, run away immediately. Ah Qian and I are going to take a shower and go to bed early tonight so we'll be refreshed tomorrow." The boss gave them so many sausages today, they had to work hard. Who knows... maybe the boss will be so happy and give them a few more.
"Take a bath? Water is so precious, it's such a waste." A Qian was a little reluctant.
Although water is now free, it is limited. Some people who love cleanliness and have enough food will occasionally exchange food for water.
"The boss asked us to organize the shelves, and they must be clean." Wang Xin thought a lot.
Bosses definitely prefer employees who dress neatly.
After hearing this, A Qian went to take a shower although he was reluctant.
They called it a bath, but in reality they just wet a cloth and wiped their bodies. After wiping their bodies, they also wiped their hair.
Wang Xin has two pieces of clothing, so it’s easy.
Ah Qian only had one piece of clothing, so he had to take a shower naked and hang his clothes on a rope in the house.
I don’t dare hang it outside for fear of it being stolen.
Fortunately, the weather is hot now. I can open the window and hang it overnight, so it should be dry.
After hanging the clothes, Qian wrapped a rag around his lower body and went to sleep. Although he wasn't very sleepy, he was still excited about the instant noodles. But there were girls here, and it would be difficult for him to go out naked.
Their shabby house was not big, with only three rooms. The larger one was shared by the boys, the smallest one by the girls, and the remaining one, which was neither too big nor too small, was used to store firewood.
They also used the kitchen to store firewood.
They didn't have much food and couldn't cook anything fancy, so a stove and a big pot in the living room were enough.
It can be used for cooking in normal times and for heating in winter.
The floor of the house is made of dirt, not a floor. Sometimes it is dusty, but there is no need to worry about it getting burned.
When Wang Xin and A Qian were sleeping, the children did not sleep. Instead, they took advantage of the darkness and went to the places they had dug before to search again.
They were lucky and actually found another earring.
They took it back, and after Wang Xin and the others woke up, they gave the earrings to Wang Xin.
Wang Xin and A Qian woke up before dawn. No time was mentioned yesterday, so they had to go early.
When he saw the earrings, a smile appeared on his face. He could buy instant noodles again.
Wang Xin and A Qian set out before dawn, carrying the newly found earrings with them and washing them carefully before leaving.
