Chapter 148 Includes the Construction of Ranches



In fact, Liu Feifei's wariness of Zhao Xiaodao and Guo Yan went beyond just these chili peppers.

Perhaps Chen Fan is another example.

Guo Yan might be a slightly smaller threat, but Zhao Xiaodao is definitely a very, very big threat.

Zhao Xiaodao's petite and delicate appearance evokes a protective instinct in many boys.

I'm afraid Chen Fan might also develop this desire!

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

"When we have time tomorrow, we'll plant all of these near our shelter."

Chen Fan nodded seriously.

However, he didn't think that much about it.

I just think Liu Feifei simply cares about these wild chili peppers.

The two then continued their journey to the bamboo forest.

The bamboo forest isn't far away!

After walking for another twenty minutes or so, we arrived.

Chen Fan began cutting down bamboo, and Liu Feifei was not idle either, she started looking for bamboo shoots.

I found several bamboo shoots at the beginning, but I don't know if there are any left now.

If we can find a few, dinner will be much more substantial that night.

Stir-fried bamboo shoots with smoked meat, plus some honey, would definitely taste amazing!

Before long, Chen Fan had already cut down a large bundle of bamboo.

After binding them with vines, they were carried back to the shelter.

"Chen Fan, I'll leave the expansion of the ranch to you. I'll make dinner for us."

"I'll make bamboo shoots and pork for us tonight..." After returning to the shelter, Liu Feifei took the initiative to cook dinner.

Actually, I'm not very hungry right now.

But life needs a sense of ritual, and having finally dug up a few bamboo shoots, it's only natural to try them out.

Moreover, she hadn't eaten chili peppers for so long, and she felt a little impatient.

"Okay..."

Chen Fan nodded and then went to expand the ranch.

If these wild animals are to be kept in captivity, then the ranch will need to be expanded to a slightly larger size.

If it's too small, it might feel restrictive!

Chen Fan quickly planned out a relatively flat area.

The total area is about 40 to 50 square meters, which is more than enough for a ranch.

Even if other animals are added in the future, it should be enough.

After planning the area, Chen Fan began to put it into practice.

The first step is to dig a trench about 20 to 30 centimeters deep along the edge of the planned area so that the bamboo can be buried in it.

This depth should be more than sufficient.

As for the height of the pasture, about two meters is about right.

You can add some thorns at the top to prevent these small animals from escaping.

These things sound simple, but they are not easy to do at all.

Because the expanded area is roughly square, each side is a little over six meters long.

Liu Feifei came over just as we finished digging one side.

"The food is ready, Chen Fan. Come and try my cooking."

"Today I'm making honey-glazed bamboo shoots stir-fried with pork!"

Liu Feifei said with a sweet smile.

After being nourished by love, Liu Feifei's entire demeanor underwent a dramatic transformation.

Building upon her previous innocent and youthful charm, she has gained a more mature and sophisticated air.

"Dinner was prepared so well?"

"Then I have to go and try it."

Chen Fan smiled and stopped what he was doing.

Although I'm not hungry yet, I still want to savor Liu Feifei's unique honey-glazed bamboo shoot and pork stir-fry.

In fact, after a month of getting to know each other and learning from each other, Liu Feifei's cooking skills have improved quite a bit.

When I first arrived on the island, my cooking skills were terrible, but they've been improving day by day.

If it was difficult to swallow before, now at least it tastes delicious.

"Mmm, come and try it! I just secretly tasted a piece, and it's really, really good!"

"I feel like it's almost as good as what chefs at five-star hotels make." Liu Feifei was very confident in the dish she made today.

Although the way I described it might be a little exaggerated, I can guess that it must be quite delicious.

"So confident? Then I have to try it."

Chen Fan simply washed the mud off his hands and returned to the shelter.

There was only one dish, but the small room was filled with its delicious aroma.

At this moment, it looks quite warm and cozy.

"Chen Fan, dinner tonight is rather simple. If you're still hungry, let me know later and I'll make you something else."

Liu Feifei quickly helped Chen Fan pull out the bamboo chair.

After all, Chen Fan does far more work in a day than I do.

Moreover, Chen Fan did almost all the physical labor, so she would naturally lend a hand with these small tasks that she could manage.

"No, I think it's great! Being able to eat stir-fried bamboo shoots with pork in a place like this is no ordinary dinner."

"Besides, we were quite full back then, so now we're just tasting the aroma."

Chen Fan looked at Liu Feifei with a face full of affection and said.

In fact, this kind of life with just the two of them made him feel very comfortable and happy.

If life continues like this, he wouldn't feel bored even if he stayed for a year or two, or even two or three years.

"Hehe~ You always say things I like to hear!"

"But after hearing it, I really felt warm inside."

Liu Feifei glanced at Chen Fan with her beautiful eyes, the happiness in them impossible to hide.

"Alright, let's start eating!"

"After smelling this aroma, I can't wait to try it."

After Chen Fan sat down, Liu Feifei quickly sat down next to him.

Then he picked up a piece of bamboo shoot and put it in his mouth.

"Huh?! Why do these bamboo shoots taste so astringent this time?"

After taking a small sip, Liu Feifei slightly furrowed her brow.

She only tasted one bite of the meat when she tried it just now, and it tasted sweet and delicious, very good.

But I never expected that bamboo shoots would taste so astringent!

The first few times Chen Fan made it, he didn't notice much astringency.

"Let me try it..." Chen Fan also picked up a piece and tasted it.

Although it has a slightly astringent taste, it's very crisp and refreshing to eat, so it's quite good!

After tasting it carefully for a while, Chen Fan said with a smile, "Fresh bamboo shoots do have a slightly astringent taste, and they need to be processed a little to remove that astringency!"

"Actually, it's quite simple to remove this astringent taste. Just blanch it in water for a few minutes or fry it briefly in oil."

"oh oh!"

"Oh, I see!"

"Then I will definitely remember it well in the future." Liu Feifei nodded seriously.

This time, no apologies or sorrys were said.

Because saying it that way would be too formal...
