It rained heavily all night long. By dawn, the rain had subsided and only a light drizzle was floating in the air. The temperature dropped instantly.

As soon as Xiaoguo opened her eyes in the morning, she found some thicker clothes for Zhuangzhuang. Adults are strong and are not afraid of a drop in temperature, but children are weak, so it is better for them to dress warmly.

There were only two pieces of clothing in the closet. After rummaging through the closet for a long time, I finally found some thicker clothes. Zhuangzhuang could put on his clothes by himself. Xiaoguo put down the clothes and went out to prepare breakfast.

In this kind of weather, it is best to drink some porridge in the morning. Boil the porridge in a clay pot and put another basin on it with hot water to accelerate the fermentation. Go to the space and take a piece of pork belly and chop it into stuffing. Add chopped green onion to prepare the stuffing to make pork and green onion buns. When the dough has doubled in size, start kneading the dough, cut it into small pieces and roll it into the size of the palm of your hand. After a while, buns of the same size are formed one by one. Place them neatly on the steamer, cover the pot lid and let it rise again for fifteen minutes, then light the fire and steam it for another 15 minutes before serving.

As soon as the steamer was opened, hot steam came out. Xiaoguo picked up the plump white buns and put them on the grate, then brought the rice to the table and prepared to eat.

Xiaoguo called Zhuangzhuang to eat. As soon as he got up, he thought about the cow. He put on his clothes and ran to the kitchen to get grass to feed the cow. Zhuangzhuang ran out from the inner room and was about to sit on the table to get some buns, but Xiaoguo quickly stopped him and said, "Go wash your hands."

Zhuangzhuang groaned in disappointment, but still listened to his mother, suppressed his urge to eat the buns, and quickly ran outside to wash his hands. He came back within a few seconds, and Xiaoguo handed him the buns, "Be careful, it's hot, eat slowly."

Zhuangzhuang responded, and while chewing a bun in his mouth he curiously asked his mother, "Mom, the fish is still swimming, how are we going to eat it?" He had just washed his hands, and the fish was still jumping around, which scared him.

"How about we have hot pot for lunch today, using coconut and pheasant to make soup, and then make fish balls to eat with it?"

Zhuangzhuang was already drooling just imagining it, although he couldn't understand how the hard coconut could be made into soup and how the fish could be turned into fish balls.

After finishing their meal, Zhuangzhuang rushed to wash the dishes. The rain was still falling outside. The weather was pretty good. When making fish balls, you need to add ice cubes to prevent them from being cooked by the heat when stirring. Now just add room temperature water at this temperature. The cool water replaces the ice cubes.

Pheasant meat is difficult to cook, so Xiaoguo had to prepare it early and stew it first. When she came to the kitchen, Zhuangzhuang had already washed the dishes. Seeing his mother coming over to clean the pheasant, he was about to sit next to her but was stopped by Xiaoguo. Xiaoguo didn't want Zhuangzhuang to see such a bloody scene of perming, plucking and bleeding, so she drove Zhuangzhuang into the house to see if the calf was eating grass well, and she avoided him and went out with the basin and the pheasant.

The water soon boiled, and Xiao Guo began to clean the pheasant, carefully checking whether the feathers were plucked cleanly. When he found no stray hairs, he took it back to the kitchen. There was not much chicken blood left, so Xiao Guo did not throw it away. He put it in a basin and put it in the refrigerator in the space. He would eat it after it was frozen. Unfortunately, the refrigerator and the generator in the space could not be taken out, as it was too inconsistent. Xiao Guo did not have the courage to take it out, in case someone found it, he would have no way to explain.

I washed the pheasant several times, chopped the chicken with a machete, and put it into a larger casserole without blanching it. Then I used the machete to chop the coconut. Before chopping it, Xiaoguo called out to Zhuangzhuang. He had been curious about how to eat it, so Xiaoguo demonstrated it to Zhuangzhuang.

Zhuangzhuang walked around the table excitedly. He couldn't chop the coconut too hard or the coconut juice would leak out. He slowly cut a slit and then peeled it slowly. Zhuangzhuang watched the green coconut turn white as his mother peeled it slowly. "Mom, is this an edible coconut?"

"No, the outside is still a shell, and what you can eat is inside." Xiaoguo said as he cut the top, restraining his strength. A crack appeared after one cut. He cut the other side and a hole appeared. Xiaoguo took a spoon and poured some coconut milk for Zhuangzhuang.
