Chapter 65 Mid-Autumn Festival

Chen Qingqing walked over curiously and saw a long bottom plate like a flower bed under the steps. There was water in it and a long tilted glass fixed on the bottom plate.

There was a bucket under the short end of the glass.

"Is this a distillation device?" Chen Qingqing was stunned.

Qian Qian scratched his head: "So Sister Chen knew it! I wanted to give you a surprise."

Chen Qingqing smiled: "It's really a surprise."

Although she had made a plan to distill seawater, she hadn't started to implement it yet.

Qian Qian's actions were really fast and his hands-on ability was also very strong.

Chen Qingqing: "Thanks for your hard work."

He Chuan coughed lightly: "I didn't do much, it was mainly Qian Gan. He was in charge of the manual links in the laboratory before, and he is very good at making small things."

He Chuan was helping Qian Gan show his strengths.

After all, they have been together for so many days, and Chen Qingqing must have seen their strengths and weaknesses.

Shang Li is eloquent and eloquent, He Chuan is the main force in vaccine research and development, and he is calm and composed when encountering problems. Zhou Weiyue learned from Shang Li to be sweet-talking and hardworking.

Only Qian Gan is a silent and invisible person most of the time.

He Chuan is worried that Chen Qingqing will ignore Qian Gan.

Chen Qingqing dispelled their doubts: "There are only a few people in our team. Do you think I will ignore your efforts?"

Qian Qian blushed and lowered his head: "Mainly because I don't have any particularly outstanding advantages."

Shang Li walked in from the main entrance and immediately looked surprised when he heard the words: "Aren't your advantages outstanding?"

"You are the most hardworking person I have ever met!"

Shang Li's tone was exaggerated, but he was telling the truth.

Qian Qian couldn't stand being praised like that, and quickly changed the subject: "You've been missing all afternoon, where have you been?"

Shang Li pointed to the pile of things he brought back in the yard, and put his hands on his hips: "Of course I went to learn from the masters!"

"Sister said, we live by the sea, we must learn how to live by the sea."

"Fishing is too technical, and few of us can swim. If we fall into the sea, we can't even climb out."

"So I asked the villagers to calculate the time of high tide and low tide, and we can catch the sea tomorrow!"

It must be said that their ability to act is really strong. They did all the things that Chen Qingqing had thought of but had not yet started to assign.

Chen Qingqing took a nap, and they got everything done.

Shang Li wrote the time of high tide and low tide on a piece of paper with a marker and taped it to the back door.

In the yard were several plastic buckets, sleds and other tools he had obtained from various households, which could be used to catch fish from the sea.

The tide was high at the seaside now, and Xiao Huan was already getting excited. He took a small bucket and a small shovel to dig sand in the yard to practice in advance.

After the meal was ready, Zhou Weiyue took Xiao Huan to wash his hands and led Xiao Huan to the sofa.

"It smells so good!"

Xiao Huan came to Chen Qingqing's side, drooling at the sight of the opened flying crab in Chen Qingqing's hand.

Steaming is the cooking method that best preserves the original flavor of food. If you don't like the taste to be too light, you can dip it in soy sauce and vinegar.

This is the most original way to eat it, and it is also Chen Qingqing's favorite way to eat it.

October is the time when sea crabs are at their fattest. As soon as you open the lid, you can see a lot of crab roe.

But Xiaohuan doesn't like crab roe. He likes the sweet meat in the crab legs and crab claws.

There is a lot of meat in the crab claws and crab legs of two palm-sized sea crabs.

Lin Bo broke off two crab claws, cut them open with scissors, peeled them, and handed them to Xiaohuan.

"Thank you, Dad!"

Xiaohuan took it and ate all the meat in one bite. His eyes immediately narrowed happily, like a satisfied little cat.

"It's delicious! Mom, eat it too!"

Xiaohuan handed the other crab claw peeled by Lin Bo to Chen Qingqing's mouth, and Chen Qingqing cooperated and took a small bite.

Xiaohuan has lived inland since childhood and has never been in contact with the sea. Although he has eaten a lot of different kinds of seafood, this is the first time he has eaten something so fresh.

It's not just Xiaohuan, the same goes for the others.

This meal is the richest and happiest meal they have ever had since the end of the world!

No! It's even the most satisfying meal they have ever had in their lives!

Perhaps because of the crisis outside, they sat in a circle in the house, and the sense of security they brought to each other made them feel extremely happy, and this meal became extremely delicious.

Shangli went into the kitchen with an unsatisfied mind, intending to get a second bowl of rice, but when he opened the rice cooker, he saw that there was only enough for one bowl of rice left.

There were at least three people outside who had not eaten enough.

Shang Li was stunned.

Could it be that there was no food in the house?

Shang Li opened the cupboard, and there were several bags of rice and flour in the cupboard.

Maybe they accidentally steamed too little?

Shang Li carefully closed the rice cooker, put the bowl in the sink, and walked out of the kitchen: "I'm full."

"There's another bowl in the pot. If anyone wants to eat, remember to get it."

Zhou Weiyue looked at Chen Qingqing's family first, and when she saw that they had put down their chopsticks, she was about to stand up.

But the next second, Chen Qingqing pulled her arm and made her sit back.

"Look what that is."

Everyone turned around and saw Xiao Huan coming downstairs with a large plate of neatly arranged moon cakes.

"Mooncakes!"

Everyone realized later that today was actually the Mid-Autumn Festival!

They thought that it was rare to have a full meal in the end times, but now they could actually eat mooncakes and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Shang Li suddenly realized that Lin Bo had deliberately cooked less rice so that they would have enough space for mooncakes!

Shang Li quickly stepped forward to take the mooncake from Xiao Huan's hand, put it on the tea table, and gave one to each person.

"Mine is the one with red bean paste!" Shang Li took a bite and said happily, "I like the ones with red bean paste the best!"

Zhou Weiyue also took a bite, and her face twisted immediately: "It's five-nut!"

"I like five-nut." Xiaohuan handed her cantaloupe-flavored mooncake to Zhou Weiyue, "I'll trade with auntie."

"Xiaohuan, you're really my savior!" Zhou Weiyue certainly wanted to eat mooncakes, but the five-nut ones were too hard to swallow.

They had the happiest night since the end of the world.

After a good meal, Chen Qingqing returned upstairs and stood on the balcony on the second floor, enjoying the sea breeze.

Hearing the sound of the cane, Chen Qingqing turned her head to look at Ming Peilan next door and smiled: "Aunt Ming, are you full?"

Ming Peilan sat on the reclining chair on the balcony: "I am full, the mooncakes with salted egg yolk filling are quite to my taste."

Chen Qingqing sent someone to invite Ming Peilan before the meal, but Ming Peilan said that she didn't like the hustle and bustle.

But Chen Qingqing knew that she hadn't come out of the pain of losing her husband yet, so how could she be lively?

So Chen Qingqing asked someone to take out a portion of the food and send it to the next door.

Ming Peilan could also hear the noise in their house, and it was considered a "lively" time with them across the yard.

Chen Qingqing: "When are you willing to have dinner with us? Just say the word."

"I know." Ming Peilan closed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief in the sea breeze.

Not only this group of young people, but she also spent the most relaxing night in a while.

In the past, she hated noisy sounds in the hospital.

But tonight, hearing the noise next door, she actually felt more comfortable than ever before.

Maybe... it's really different.

After an unknown amount of time, Ming Peilan opened her eyes again and looked at Chen Qingqing on the balcony next door: "Kid, what do you think of my supernatural power...how should it be used?"
