Zhou Pin wanted to show everyone the consequences of coveting their things, so that they would think twice before even considering it.
After driving the people away, Minister Sun returned with a basket on his back and Youyou in his arms. Judging from his wide grin, you knew he must have made a good haul.
At this moment, Sun Wei and the other two returned. They watched as Minister Sun handed Youyou to Zhou Pin, then pulled everyone to a secluded place and took out two pomelos, a handful of peppercorns, and a handful of something that looked like tea leaves from the basket on his back.
“Isn’t this tea?” Li Jingjing said first.
“Yes, we can make tea from now on!” Minister Sun said.
“Uncle Sun, you’re overthinking it. Making a drinkable tea from this handful of tea leaves would require frying and kneading, which is too much work. But I can make you some pomelo tea from these two pomelos,” Xu Lin said.
"Sure, as long as there's tea to drink, that groundwater is fine, it's just that I can't stand the taste." Minister Sun clicked his tongue.
"I'll make it for you this afternoon," Xu Lin said.
The pomelos that Minister Sun brought back looked very big and were quite light, so they were probably overripe. But at this point, having any fruit to eat is already pretty good, what more could you ask for!
During lunch, Sun Wei mentioned that he had earned 100 work points by improving the transport vehicle. Everyone was very happy. Indeed, knowledge is wealth. Xu Lin only has 11 work points through physical labor, and Zhou Pin has 20 work points. Sun Wei easily broke 100.
After everyone left in the afternoon, while Xiao Youyou took a nap, Xu Lin took out the pomelos that Minister Sun had brought back and began to process them. Zhou Pin suggested going up the mountain to take a look.
Actually, there's not much left on the mountain now. Having already experienced all sorts of extreme weather during the apocalypse, very few creatures could survive. With only a few hundred of them, the mountain would have long since become bald.
The method for making honey grapefruit tea is very simple. They had grapefruit and a lot of honey stored up, so Xu Lin started making it right away.
Separate the grapefruit pulp, crush it by hand, put the grapefruit and shredded grapefruit peel into a pot, add rock sugar, and when the temperature reaches 50-60 degrees Celsius, add honey and stir well. It will be ready in an hour.
Find a clean jar, put it in, and you can mix it with water to drink it tonight.
Actually, Xu Lin also couldn't stand the taste of the underground river water. Recently, she had been secretly drinking the mineral water from her space. Fortunately, the seasonings she used to cook could mask the taste of the water itself, otherwise it would have greatly affected her appetite.
After tidying up, Xu Lin went to the car to wake Xiao Youyou up, as she had slept too much during the afternoon nap and wouldn't be able to sleep at night. Fortunately, the child was obedient and woke up as soon as she was called. When she saw it was Xu Lin, she even smiled at her.
Xu Lin changed the diaper, and then, as if by magic, pulled out a bag of fruit puree from her bosom. Xiao Youyou was overjoyed, hugged it with both hands, and started sucking on it with great practice.
Xu Lin would look at Xiao Youyou for a while every day. Everyone thought that Xu Lin was playing with her, but actually she was taking things out of her space to feed her. Anyway, the child was too young to understand, so as long as no one else saw it, it was fine. There were a lot of baby supplies and complementary foods in her space. She couldn't let Xiao Youyou be malnourished.
Sun Wei and the others had known for a long time that she had a secret, but they hadn't pressed her for details. It was enough that they all kept it to themselves; after all, living together meant there was bound to be some slip-ups. Since Xu Lin didn't say anything, they pretended not to know. Xu Lin's secret not only posed no threat to them, but it actually improved their lives. Wise people wouldn't create trouble for themselves.
After Xiao Youyou finished eating a bag of fruit puree, Zhou Pin returned empty-handed.
