Chapter 82 Su Li has plenty of hot pot base.



Su Li had no idea what Xuan Qing was thinking, nor did she notice anything amiss with him.

She cuddled the cat and lay on the bed for a while longer.

This time was actually short, but for Xuanqing, who was inhaling the girl's sweet fragrance, it felt like an eternity!

When Su Li brought him out of the space, he almost immediately ran to the door, stood up, used his two front paws to pry open the door lock, and ran out!

Su Li found it all very strange; this cat had been acting oddly lately!

She sat on the bed for a while, changed her clothes, and then came out of the villa.

Having just woken up, her body and mind were still a little groggy. She went outside and let out two heavy breaths.

Xuanqing was lying on the grass when he saw Suli coming over. He flicked his tail, as if he had returned to his normal state.

When Su Li came out, she had washed a small basin of strawberries. She handed one to Xuan Qing: "Want some?"

Xuan Qing turned his head and looked at it, then stood up from his lying position and took a bite of the strawberry with Su Li's hand!

Su Li watched the cat's actions with amusement, then placed the strawberry directly in her palm. The strawberry was a bit big, and the kitten had some trouble eating it.

She waited until Xuanqing finished eating the whole strawberry before washing her hands in the lake. Then she stood by the lake and looked around, feeling that the place was a bit empty!

If only we could plant trees!

Unfortunately, that's not possible. The fruit trees in the mall can only be planted in orchards; neither fruit trees nor other crops can be planted on the lawn.

Perhaps we can only wait for further upgrades to the space before anything changes!

After washing her hands, Su Li took Xuan Qing and a pot of strawberries back outside.

She came out of the room, and in the entertainment area in front, only Lin Dong and Qi Zhi were still sitting there watching a movie. Su Li went over and put the strawberry down: "Where are they?"

Lin Dong pointed behind him: "Coco and Xiao Jie went to exercise, Fang Chen is still sleeping."

Qi Zhi was pleasantly surprised when he saw the strawberries Su Li took out: "Wow! Sister Su Li, are these the strawberries we found at the supermarket before? They're still so fresh?!"

Hearing his surprised words, Su Li didn't explain, which was taken as tacit agreement: "Would you like to eat other fruits? We also harvested quite a lot of melons before!"

But just as Qi Zhi was about to nod, Lin Dong suddenly interrupted him: "Wait a minute, I'll cut a plate of it when we eat. What do you want to eat for lunch? I'll make it!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhi's attention was immediately drawn, and he quickly raised his hand: "Sister Su Li, I want to eat hot pot!"

Su Li looked over when she heard the voice and saw the little boy looking expectant. After thinking for a moment, she nodded in agreement.

She hadn't had hot pot in a long time, and since everyone had time and ingredients today, let's have a good meal!

Although the world is tough now, we should enjoy life while we can. After all, they work so hard to live, not to toil and suffer every day!

After the three of them made their decision, they checked the time and it was already eleven o'clock.

Although hot pot doesn't require cooking or stir-frying, some meat ingredients still need some time to prepare!

Just as the three of them were walking toward the makeshift kitchen, they ran into Huang Keke and Xu Xiaojie coming out of the makeshift gym!

Hearing that the three of them were planning to have hot pot for lunch, the two girls had no objections. Huang Keke looked at Su Li and said, "Let's go wipe the sweat off our clothes and we'll be right there!"

Water resources are scarce right now, and although it's raining outside, none of the team members seem inclined to use it.

Now, everyone uses water, except for the mineral water they drink, which comes from the Zurich Space. All the water they use is produced by Qi Zhi.

Because everyone knows that using superpowers is not easy, they are very careful with water, and taking a bath is definitely out of the question.

Now, apart from Su Li and Xuan Qing, who can sneak into the space to take a bath every day, everyone else just wipes their bodies with a wet towel and that's it!

But compared to the other survivors outside, this is probably already very good!

Su Li has plenty of hot pot base!

Su Li pulled out a hot pot with two broths from her spatial storage. After Huang Keke and the other two arrived, she consulted everyone's opinions and finally decided on one spicy broth and one tomato broth.

As for the ingredients, take out some of the leafy greens such as bok choy, romaine lettuce, broccoli, purple cabbage, bamboo shoots, and lotus root slices and wash them.

Some of these leafy greens were a little dehydrated and wilted when they were harvested, but that doesn't matter. Just soak them in water while washing them, and most of the greens, except for cilantro, can absorb water and become fresh again!

In addition, there are also mushrooms such as enoki mushrooms, seafood mushrooms, and shiitake mushrooms. Add some bean products, and the ingredients are complete!

As for meat dishes, Su Li pulled out several bags of fish balls, fish roe buns and other meatball products, then took out two boxes of duck blood, and finally took out a piece of beef that she had received from the supermarket's cold storage, asking Lin Dong to cut it out and marinate it.

I gave him a handful of scallions and cilantro, and asked him to chop them up and mix them with the dipping sauce later.

Although there were many people, we already had enough ingredients, which was more than enough to eat!

While everyone was washing vegetables, Su Li took a large bottle of carbonated beverage and several bottles of soy milk and put them in the car's mini-fridge to chill.

After finishing all that, she came out of the kitchen and went to take a look at the front.

Since everyone was preparing the food in the back, Xuanqing stayed in the entertainment area in front, keeping an eye on the activity downstairs. He didn't have to worry about not being able to hear what was happening in front.

Su Li walked to the window, peeled back the cardboard, and looked outside!

It's already past 11 a.m., but the sky outside is as overcast as if it were the eve of dusk!

Fortunately, the rain seemed to have lessened a bit, and the rainwater on the glass was no longer flowing down in large swathes like a small river, allowing Zuli to see the scene on the sidewalk outside!

Compared to yesterday's quiet and desolate streets, the sidewalks outside are bustling with activity now, even though it's raining!

Su Li counted them, and there were already more than a dozen zombies just loitering at the door, not counting the ones that kept walking back and forth!

She put down the cardboard, walked to the stairwell, and tiptoed downstairs.

Xuan Qing, who had been lying on the sofa watching Su Li's every move, immediately jumped off the sofa and chased after her!

Feeling the movement at her feet, Su Li paused, looked down and saw Xuan Qing. She smiled silently, but didn't say anything. Instead, she bent down and hugged him.

She didn't go downstairs, but stood at the corner of the stairs leading to the second floor and looked down.

The mound of earth that Xu Xiaojie had piled up at the door was still the same as before, which meant that the water outside had not yet reached the steps.

Su Li felt relieved and gently carried Xuan Qing upstairs.

Because the rain has been pouring down, Su Li has to check on the situation downstairs every two or three hours!

In case the rain gets too heavy and floods the area, they need to be prepared in advance so they don't get stuck inside the house!
