Today, Zhoujiawu received good news early in the morning. Grandma Zhou's supernatural power has reached level three!
When the first level was upgraded to the second level, Zhao Tao was in the lead, but he didn't stay in the lead for long. We even placed bets at that time. Guess who will be the first to be upgraded to the third level?
No? I didn't expect that the winner would be taken away by Grandma Zhou, who usually doesn't show off. But it's normal when you think about it.
Not to mention the period from the Chinese New Year to now? It has been more than eight months, and the accumulation should be almost enough. According to Lin Luo's observation, most of the psychics were upgraded during this period. Besides, Grandma Zhou's own mutated wood-type ability is stronger than the ordinary wood-type ability.
Others? Being able to awaken this shows that their qualifications are quite good!
Moreover, after the upgrade, Grandma Zhou looked several years younger. The deep wrinkles on her face had faded a lot, and her temperament was calm and kind. She was completely different from the gloomy and sad woman at the beginning.
My physical condition has also improved. I have more strength and my legs and feet are more flexible. If I continue like this, there will be no problem living to be a hundred years old.
At the request of several children, Grandma Zhou demonstrated the new functions after the upgrade, such as the vine seedling in her palm has stronger lethality and can also better protect Grandma Zhou.
If someone attacks from behind, the vine will take the initiative to block it without any orders. This is the benefit of companionship. If Grandma Zhou has the opportunity to upgrade it again, the function of this vine will be far more than this.
Of course, for Zhoujiawu, what is more important is that Grandma Zhou has added a lot to the vegetables in the field.
I remember that at the beginning, Grandma Zhou would use up all her supernatural powers to produce one vegetable seed, but now she can produce fifteen vegetables in one breath.
It is the fully mature kind and can be used directly for cooking. Grandma Zhou can now feed two or three people by herself.
If it is just an ordinary nourishing plant that does not need to be fully ripened, the larger the range, the better the effect.
It is easy to produce over 1,000 kilograms of rice per acre.
"Grandma is so awesome!"
Xiao Meng and the others looked at Grandma Zhou with admiration, "Wait until we upgrade in the future, will we no longer need to grow vegetables?"
"You wish!"
Zhou Guangzong bluntly punctured the children's fantasy, "It's impossible to get something for nothing, and don't expect grandma to support you. Only by growing your own crops can they truly belong to you!"
Xiao Meng pouted, "Uncle is so fierce, I was just saying it casually."
Zhou Guangzong: "..." If it was Zhou Xiang at this moment, he would have given him a slap in the face, but since it was his little niece who was still a child, he couldn't vent his anger so freely.
He tried to talk to the children about the benefits of self-reliance, but after a few words they ran away as if they didn't want to hear his nagging.
Zhou Guangzong felt tired and aggrieved. Kids these days are so difficult to deal with. Fortunately, he is a bachelor!
On the day when Grandma Zhou was promoted, Lin Luo received a bunch of fresh grapes and a bowl of cherry tomatoes specially sent by the old lady.
It is still a little difficult for Grandma Zhou to ripen apples and oranges growing on trees, but it is much easier for the likes of watermelons and strawberries.
She remembered that Lin Luo liked to eat fresh fruits. After "fertilizing" today's vegetables, she found that there was still some supernatural power left, so she used it all to ripen the seeds of these things without hesitation.
Then he immediately sent it to Lin Luo.
Lin Luo looked at the fresh fruits in the basket and pursed her lips. She did not reject the old woman's kindness, but just said that she would come to her if she wanted to eat in the future, so there would be no need to spend extra effort.
Grandma Zhou smiled brightly, "I know, I know. I'm happy today too. Girl Luo, if you want to eat, come find me!"
She also left a little for Yuanyuan. The child, who was almost one year old, could already eat some fruit. She didn't know if this child had healing abilities. Not only was she healthy and never got sick, she also had a good appetite and seemed to be able to eat anything.
It’s just that Sun Yiqing and Grandma Zhou usually control themselves a little, otherwise Yuanyuan would probably be a complete overeater now.
Seeing Grandma Zhou leaving quickly, Lin Luo washed the grapes and cherry tomatoes in the basket. Fresh fruits should of course be eaten while they are fresh!
"I never thought that a chance I gave would have such a reward."
Yun Shu suddenly appeared beside Lin Luo without knowing when. "Because Luo Luo never thought about repaying me, I was even more surprised when I got it."
——It seems to make some sense?
Lin Luo originally wanted to save only Zhou Yaozu and Grandma Yao, but somehow, it evolved into a family of more than twenty people, and they all happily built a house together.
"I never thought that I could still eat so many fresh fruits in the end of the world." In the previous life, the first thing that wood-type mutants had to ensure was daily necessities. Fruits were too luxurious!
In this life, Yunshu grows watermelons and strawberries. There are bayberries, persimmons and Miaomiaozi on the mountain, and Grandma Zhou also sent these to him.
What’s the difference from before the end of the world?
"Is it sweet?" Yun Shu asked with a smile after taking a bite of a purple grape.
"sweet!"
It was much sweeter than any grape she had eaten before!
As the weather gradually cooled, the people of Zhoujiawu became busier, working on farming, harvesting, building houses, studying, and exercising...
Every day is packed with activities, and almost everyone falls asleep as soon as they hit the bed every night.
In the past, people like Zhou Yaozu and Xiaoyue had a minor insomnia problem, often staying up until 2 or 3 a.m. without feeling sleepy at all. Now, this problem is completely gone! Don't sleep so soundly every day!
For example, today is the day when the second batch of rice is harvested.
When the first batch of rice matured, Lin Luo and Yun Shu happened to go to the city. When they came back, everyone had already finished harvesting. Two days later, they received several sacks of white and fragrant rice.
This time we can help with the harvest, I believe it will be much faster?
Lin Luo stood beside a golden rice field, watching Xiaoyue and the others wrap their headscarves and their hands and feet tightly to avoid being cut. They looked fully armed.
Because there is a job at the house construction site that is best done in one go, there are only three girls, Zhou Xiang, and Lan Yueyin who came to harvest the rice today.
The three children are here too. They can pick up broken rice from the back. We can’t waste any food!
"Sister Luo, just watch from the side! I'm very good at cutting rice now!" Zhou Xiang waved the sickle in his hand, and was then ridiculed by Xiaoyue without any hesitation.
"Who was the one who lay in bed for three days after the last surgery?"
Zhou Xiang was embarrassed and annoyed: "Everyone can improve!"
Xiaoyue and the other two girls laughed out loud at the same time, but did not say anything to criticize Zhou Xiang.
"Sister Xiaoyue, uncle said we don't need to finish mowing everything today. They can come and help tomorrow."
There are five people in total. If we don’t count the child and Lin Luo, each person is responsible for at least two acres of land.
It’s considered fast to finish the harvest within two days.
Therefore, Zhou Guangzong just asked them to cut as much as they could today, and wait until the men were free tomorrow so that they could take turns.
Cutting rice requires you to bend over all the time, which is really hard work.
Xiaoyue smiled and said, "Try to cut as much as possible. Just cut as much as possible. They are tired too."
Building a house is not an easy job either. Even with two strong men like Yunshu and Zhou Yaozu, other work still requires a lot of effort, so just do as much as you can.
It's not just Xiaoyue who thinks so, everyone else feels the same.
"Come on, don't waste time, let's get started!"
"etc!"
Lin Luo suddenly spoke.
Xiaoyue thought Lin Luo was also coming to help, and was about to refuse, but Lin Luo's skin looked so delicate, and it would be so painful if he was hurt.
Xiaoyue seemed to care more about herself than Lin Luo at this moment, and seemed to have forgotten that someone... was a person with special abilities, and a psychic ability that could be called a "panacea".
"Harvesting rice..." Lin Luo glanced around, "Is this enough?"
As she finished speaking, ten acres of golden rice were cut off, leaving a gap of about ten centimeters in the middle.
Then Lin Luo had another thought, and all the rice was automatically bundled and placed on the open space beside him for rice.
The whole process... less than a minute?
Can Lin Luo use his mental power to control the knife? Or can he directly transform it into a "knife"? However, the former requires less supernatural power than the latter. Which method to use depends on Lin Luo's situation and mood at the time.
She had plenty of energy today, so using a knife would be slow, after all, there were ten acres of land, so she chose to just finish the cutting.
Everyone: “…”
Silence was everyone's only reaction at this moment.
Think about the last time they worked so hard for almost a whole day, and the next day they couldn’t even straighten their backs, and their hands and bodies were covered with small cuts... What was all this all about?
"Huh? Not okay?" Lin Luo looked at the incision. It was pretty good. When she was a child, she had seen other villagers in Zhoujiawu harvesting rice. It was about this position, right?
Xiaoyue: "...No, it's great." She looked down at her "formal" attire and forced a smile. "Then we can go harvest the rice directly today."
Zhoujiawu has inconvenient transportation, and we used to thresh rice using the old-fashioned manual-powered machine. A few years ago, we managed to scrape together some money and bought a diesel-powered machine that we left behind when we dismantled the farm last time. It is much more convenient to use this one.
Bundles of plump rice were brought in, and the sacks at the exit gradually bulged out, and inside was the staple food, rice!
The rice husks on the other side cannot be thrown away either, they can be used as fertilizer and spread back on the land.
There is no rush to thresh the rice. This pile of rice cannot be finished today with just this machine. With Xiaoyue and the others watching, Lin Luo went to the other side to see the progress of Yunshu and the others.
When Yun Shu saw Lin Luo coming from afar, he immediately smiled, and the others also noticed it.
Otherwise, Yun Shu always had a cold face when he was working, as if he was owed millions. Only in front of Lin Luo did he smile like a... fool.
"Miss Luo?" Zhou Guangzong had gotten even darker, his teeth looking especially white when he smiled. "How's the rice harvest going? Is Zhou Xiang complaining about being tired again?"
While he was talking, his hands did not stop moving and he looked very skilled.
Lin Luo took a few steps to Yun Shu's side and handed him a bottle of water before answering, "No, the harvest is done and they're threshing now."
"Hmph, I knew it..." Zhou Guangzong's words were stuck in his throat, and the next second!
"What? Finished cutting?!"
His loud voice could probably be heard throughout Zhoujiawu.
Besides Yun Shu, Zhou Yaozu, Hong Hu, and the others also looked over. "Is it finished? Is that true?"
"Wait, I think I understand." Zhou Yaozu reacted, "Luo girl, you..."
Lin Luo nodded. "I cut it. It healed in no time."
Familiar silence, everyone has similar thoughts in their minds at this moment, so why did they forget Lin Luo's special abilities?
If I was able to cut bamboo last time, I should be able to cut rice this time!
Yun Shu added, "I wanted to say that last time, but since you guys were all done, I let it go."
"Ha, hahaha, just consider it as exercise and life experience." Zhou Guangzong laughed awkwardly. "Look, that kid Zhou Xiang has never harvested rice!"
Although he said so, Zhou Guangzong had already secretly decided in his heart that he must not forget Lin Luo next time. They could give her more rice, otherwise his old waist would really suffer!
Because of Lin Luo's intervention, today's rice harvesting task was completed ahead of schedule, and the men did not need to be exchanged tomorrow, so they could just finish this little work.
Lin Luo helped to "move" things beside him, which sped up the process. He completed the task at around four o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhou Guangzong and the others patted their aching bodies, packed up and prepared to go back. Seeing that Lin Luo and Yun Shu had no intention of leaving, they didn't care. They thought, they were such grown-ups, how could they get lost?
After everyone else left, Yun Shu immediately and enthusiastically pulled Lin Luo to a piece of land where a steel spirit had been erected.
"Lolo, look, this is our house."
Yun Shu had only planned it with Lin Luo before, and it was just talk on paper, but this time it really felt more real.
"Lolo's room is over here, mine is over here, then..."
Lin Luo kept nodding her head slightly. Looking at Yun Shu like this, her expectations for this house suddenly increased a little more. She even started to think about what color to use for the walls in advance.
I wonder what the "castle" will look like when it is finally completed?
After enjoying the future, Yun Shu returned home and was about to go into the kitchen to cook dinner, but was suddenly blocked outside by Lin Luo. "I'll cook today, Yun Shu, just wait outside obediently!"
Yun Shu: "Lolo, I'm not tired at all. These are..." To Yun Shu, working like this for a whole day is not as tiring as going to the mountains to fight.
However, Lin Luo spoke again: "But I just feel like cooking today. Yunshu, please don't disturb me!"
Lin Luo has said so, what else can Yun Shu do?
Of course, he would sit obediently on the sofa outside and wait for Lin Luo to feed him.
Lin Luo in the kitchen really wanted to show off his cooking skills today, and he didn't even consider making dumplings or rice dumplings.
She wants to cook! Real food!
I saw her take out a largest tin foil box from the cupboard, put a layer of baby cabbage kindly sponsored by Grandma Zhou on the bottom, then fished out a piece of old tofu made by Grandma Yao from the water, cut it into thick slices and placed them diagonally on the baby cabbage.
This small piece of tofu is not simple. From planting beans to grinding beans to the current tofu, every step is done by Grandma Yao herself. When she was alone in the past, she liked to make old tofu. Now that it is the end of the world, this skill is even more precious.
Old tofu is delicious whether it is stewed in soup or fried or grilled.
Next came a layer of fatty beef. At this time, the box of ingredients was just full to the edge, but Lin Luo still felt it was not enough. He went to the enoki mushroom planting bag next to the kitchen and cut a small bundle of enoki mushrooms and spread them on the top.
This kind of mushroom package is sold online. If you want to grow it after buying it, you can unpack it and place it in a dark corner, and sprinkle some water on it every day.
One bag can hold about two or three waves. Lin Luo bought several boxes of different kinds of mushrooms. Now he has enoki mushrooms and oyster mushrooms in the kitchen. After this batch is finished, he can try king oyster mushrooms and shimeji mushrooms.
You know, grilled king oyster mushrooms and served with sauce are incredibly delicious!
After preparing the ingredients, Lin Luo opened the so-called universal "sauce" ratio that he had written down in advance and strictly followed the ratio above.
Minced garlic, red pepper, two tablespoons of oyster sauce, half a tablespoon of dark soy sauce...
After mixing evenly, sprinkle it on the enoki mushrooms. It will make you hungry instantly!
Put it in the oven, adjust the time and temperature, and then Lin Luo went to make other dishes.
Calling it a dish, it certainly couldn't compare to Yun Shu's "real ingredients". Lin Luo had essentially taken a shortcut, like slicing Yun Shu's pickled sausages and arranging them on a plate, cracking an egg in the middle, and not adding any seasonings because the sausages themselves had flavor.
After steaming it like this, you will get a plate of sausage steamed egg that looks pretty good!
Also, boil the lettuce in water and pour some oyster sauce on it. Isn’t it just a dish of lettuce with oyster sauce?
So when Yun Shu first saw seven or eight dishes on the table, he was shocked and worried in his heart whether he was going to be "unemployed".
But when he saw the dishes clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it seemed that Lolo did not go to study cooking behind his back, so this "job" should be saved.
"Come and try my cooking!" Lin Luo felt that he had made great progress. He was no longer the person who only knew how to cook dumplings and steam buns!
Yun Shu was very considerate and reached for Lin Luo's most proud tin foil platter with her first chopstick. The enoki mushrooms soaked up the sauce and tasted very tasty. Before she had completely swallowed it, Yun Shu gave Lin Luo a thumbs up. If you didn't know her, you would think she had eaten some delicacies.
What happened next was even more exaggerated. Yun Shu would praise every dish sincerely after eating it. Even the ordinary lettuce with oyster sauce was said to be the culmination of culinary skills and a return to nature. This was the first time that Lin Luo knew that Yun Shu's vocabulary reserve was so large. It seemed that he had not neglected his cultural studies during his usual practice.
Worthy of the reward!
The two of them enjoyed the delicious meal happily. Afterwards, Lin Luo received a special dessert made by Yun Shu, a bowl of red bean double skin milk, which he had prepared in the morning and put in the refrigerator.
The red beans are soft, full of milk flavor, and have a little "coolness". This is Lin Luo's love!
Just when she was trying to find words to praise Yun Shu, the smile on Lin Luo's face suddenly paused, but soon rose again.
Level seven! She felt the opportunity to reach level seven.
