Chapter 61 Sister, Eat Quickly
Hua Yang and the others were amused by Meng Yi's words, and time passed quickly amidst the laughter. Although the sun was not strong, it was already hanging high in the sky.
Hua Yang was a little hungry early on, so they and a few others crossed the guardrail beside the highway, found a safe place and started a fire.
Huayang's space is like a treasure box, with everything you need for a living room.
She took out a large pot that was big enough for five or six people, a bag of flour, a box of eggs, a few red tomatoes, and a large cabbage dripping with dew. She also had pots, pans, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and a large bucket of water for making noodles, all of which she placed on the picnic mat spread out on the ground.
"I want to eat gnocchi."
At this time, Hua Yang drooled when she thought of the tomato and vegetable noodles her mother used to make. And you should beat a few more eggs into the flour, the flour will become more tender and delicious.
She is pregnant now and needs nutrition the most. Flour contains starch, eggs contain protein, and vegetables contain vitamins. A bowl of vegetable noodles contains all these nutrients. It is delicious, filling and can resist hunger.
Hua Yang can't cook. After taking out these things, Li Xiaoyu was originally supposed to cook, but Meng Yi snatched the position of chef away from her.
"Aunt, leave the cooking to me. Just wait and see my cooking skills."
Meng Yi didn't bother to be polite with Li Xiaoyu. He snatched the flour bag from her hand and started to stir the noodles.
"Mom, don't steal his job. I've tasted Lao Meng's cooking skills and they're no worse than yours. Don't worry."
Hua Yang sat on the picnic mat, took a tomato and started eating it, and passed one to each of the remaining people.
The vegetables and grains she had harvested in her space were so many that even if she took out Xiaolu and Jinchan's rations and the three meals a day for the five adults and one child, she might not be able to finish eating so much in half a year.
After several people washed their hands with the water given by Hua Yang, Li Xiaoyu took a bite of a tomato and her eyes lit up instantly.
"Yangyang, where did you get this tomato? It's so delicious. Not sour at all, sweet and tasty, and big in size. Oh, could it be that it was injected with cyclamate or something?"
The more Li Xiaoyu ate, the more she felt something was wrong, and her brows began to frown.
Hua Yang laughed and explained, "Don't worry, Mom. These tomatoes are absolutely free of pesticides and hormones. They are guaranteed to be natural. They are grown by a friend of mine at home and exported overseas. There won't be any problems."
Hua Yang would not explain to her mother that she planted the crops in her space. Firstly, in her mother's eyes, she was not credible as someone who did not know farming. She also did not know how to explain the space to her mother, so she told this white lie.
Moreover, she kept thinking about what Xing Lie said before they left. If the existence of this space was known to someone with ulterior motives, it would bring about a fatal disaster. Then she would rather the people around her knew nothing, so that if the truth was revealed, it would not bring danger to the people around her.
"Oh, is that so? We must not have much food. We have to eat sparingly. Leave some for your brother."
Hua Yang had inherited Li Xiaoyu's innocence and believed everything others said. But it was a good thing that Hua Yang didn't have to explain to her mother.
Hua Yang stuffed another tomato into her mother's hand and said, "Don't worry, my friends gave me a lot of them, and they are all in my space. And I saved some for my brother, so you guys can eat them."
Hua Yang watched Xiao Ming carefully eat the big tomato in his hand, touched his head, and her eyes were full of maternal love. This child has been quiet since he started living with them. He is very careful every time he eats, and he doesn't dare to interact too much with others except Hua Yang, which makes people feel distressed.
"Eat it quickly, it's sweet."
Xiao Ming raised his little head, blinked his big eyes, and held up Hua Yang's hand holding the tomato. "Sister, eat quickly too. Little sister is hungry too."
After these words came out, Li Xiaoyu was the first to be stunned. She looked at her daughter and blinked a few times, then looked at Hua Yang: "What sister?"
Xiao Ming ate a tomato and touched Hua Yang's belly with one hand.
"Eat quickly, sister, and grow up quickly."
Now not only Li Xiaoyu's face turned dark, but Hua Jianming's face also looked stiff.
But even so, Li Xiaoyu still looked at Xiao Ming tentatively and said, "Children should not talk nonsense. What sister? Your sister Hua Yang is still a virgin!"
The child didn't understand what the term "virgin" meant. Xiao Ming still looked at Hua Yang's belly and talked to her like a little adult.
"Little sister, be a good girl and eat more so that you can grow up."
"Is this child stupid?" Hua Jianming looked at Hua Yang with a dark face.
Hua Yang had not originally intended to hide it from her parents, but now was a special period, and she didn't want some things to affect their progress, so she found an excuse to cover it up.
Forget it, let’s wait until my brother is found and their family has settled down.
"Mom and Dad, Xiao Ming's mom was pregnant with his little sister when she led the zombies away with his father, allowing Xiao Ming to survive. Please don't be surprised."
After hearing what Hua Yang said, Wu Tianqi and Meng Yi, who knew the truth, wisely kept silent. One of them was seriously making the noodles, while the other made an excuse to go and help.
Li Xiaoyu and Hua Jianming looked at Hua Yang with doubts for a while, and finally they let it go as they believed in their daughter and stopped asking. Instead, they all looked at Xiao Ming with concern.
"Oh, at such a young age, it's really pitiful."
Li Xiaoyu turned around and gently touched the top of Xiao Ming's head, and said softly: "Xiao Ming, you must be strong. Although your parents are gone, your uncle and aunt will still take care of you."
Xiao Ming looked at Hua Yang's belly for a few times, and then looked at her thoughtfully. Hua Yang blinked at him, and then tilted her head and thought for a while, as if she understood something.
Then he looked up at Li Xiaoyu.
"Thank you, Auntie Xiaoyu."
At this moment, Meng Yi said "It's time to eat." The aroma of the noodles filled everyone's sense of smell. Hua Yang had been hungry for a long time, and the smell made her appetite grow.
A big pot of noodle dumplings, which can be served in a hot bowl, can hold seven or eight bowls. Hua Yang drank two big bowls by herself.
Meng Yi had a big appetite and drank two bowls. After Wu Tianqi awakened his special ability, his appetite also increased. He and Hua Jianming drank one and a half bowls each. Li Xiaoyu and Xiao Ming had small appetites to begin with, so they drank half a bowl each.
The pot of noodles was quickly shared out by everyone, including the soup and ingredients. Li Xiaoyu was responsible for washing the dishes. Hua Yang wanted to help, but was stopped by Li Xiaoyu. As a mother and full-time housewife, Li Xiaoyu felt that without the job of cooking, it was necessary to wash the dishes to make her presence felt.
Finally, Hua Yang was happy to be free. After watching the people wash the dishes and clean up, she waved her hands and put everything into the space. When they crossed the safety fence again.
At this time, several people also determined their future positions in the team.
Meng Yi naturally captured everyone's stomach with today's noodles, and naturally became the head chef of the team. Naturally, Li Xiaoyu became the backup chef, exchanging the cooking with Meng Yi, which was also a change of taste for everyone.
Wu Tianqi and Hua Jianming were in charge of taking turns to keep watch, Xiaoming was responsible for helping out in various aspects and shouting loudly when he saw danger. Finally, Hua Yang had the easiest job, being responsible for providing food resources and water sources, as well as logistics and medical care.
