Chapter 45: Daily Life in Winter (Part 2)
After Lu Xiaoxiao washed up with water boiled in the small stove, the steamed buns in the pot were ready. She opened the lid of the steamer and saw the plump buns and swallowed unconsciously.
Lu Xiaoxiao took the steamer out of the pot and put it aside to cool, then washed the pot again and boiled some water.
Lu Xiaoxiao scooped out five pounds of grits from the cabinet in the bedroom, washed them and poured them into the pot. She then peeled ten sweet potatoes, cut them into large pieces and put them into the pot. She covered the pot and planned to cook a large pot of sweet potato grits porridge.
After Lu Xiaoxiao lit the fire in the big pot, she carried the steamer to the main room. She counted the steamed buns in the steamer and found there were thirty of them. If she ate three buns a day, that was only enough for ten days. It seemed that she had to make more, otherwise they would be finished in a few days.
Lu Xiaoxiao took out a bottle of milk from the space, then picked up the steamed bun she had just steamed and took a bite. Oh my god, it was so delicious. The ones steamed in a clay stove are different from those steamed in an electric stove. Obviously, the ones steamed in a clay stove have a better taste, and the aroma of the dough is also more intense.
Lu Xiaoxiao ate two big steamed buns with milk, which made her stomach full. If her stomach could take it, she would have wanted to eat another one. They were really delicious.
After Lu Xiaoxiao put the remaining steamed buns into the storage room, she touched her bloated stomach and went to the kitchen to check the fire in the stove. Seeing that the firewood was almost burned out, she added two more sticks.
Lu Xiaoxiao thought about how her stomach was bloated last time in the space, but her stomach was no longer bloated after she used her mind to harvest the vegetables. Now that her stomach was bloated, she could go to the space to experiment whether using her mind would consume energy.
Lu Xiaoxiao entered the front yard of the space and saw that the fruits on the trees were ripe, so she used her mind to store them in the static warehouse, and then stored the ripe grains and vegetables in the static warehouse. Before she could replant the grains and vegetables, she felt her stomach was not full. It seems that using the mind to control things in the space really consumes energy.
Lu Xiaoxiao thought that she had to be well fed when she harvested crops next time, otherwise who knew what would happen. She replanted the food and vegetables with her mind and left the space.
As soon as Lu Xiaoxiao came out of the space, she smelled a strong sweet scent of corn mixed with sweet potatoes. She felt her stomach, which had just felt comfortable, was a little hungry again.
Lu Xiaoxiao opened the lid of the pot and saw a pot of thick cornstarch and sweet potato porridge. She couldn't wait to take a spoon and taste it. The rich and sweet taste instantly conquered her taste buds. It was too delicious. She didn't expect that the porridge she cooked casually could be so successful. She had eaten cornstarch porridge at the captain's house before. Their family didn't put anything but cornstarch, so the taste was just a faint cornstarch flavor, not as rich and sweet as hers.
Lu Xiaoxiao thought she was really amazing, it seemed she had a talent for cooking.
Lu Xiaoxiao was shamelessly narcissistic as she took out a large bucket of porridge from the space, scooped all the porridge in the pot into the bucket and put it into the space. These were her reserve food and must be treated well.
Lu Xiaoxiao has been busy for several hours since she got up at around ten o'clock. She felt her arms and legs were a little sore, so she decided to take a break.
Seeing that the firewood in the stove could still burn for a while, Lu Xiaoxiao washed the pot, added water and put a hundred eggs in it. This way, the eggs would be cooked by the time the fire went out. It really was killing two birds with one stone.
Lu Xiaoxiao sat on the warm kang and suddenly wanted to eat ice cream, so she took out a box of Hagen ice cream from the space, scooped a spoonful and put it in her mouth, and then scooped another spoonful and put it in her mouth. It felt great.
Lu Xiaoxiao used to think it was strange to see people in the north eating popsicles on snowy days on TV. It was so cold, but you were asking for trouble by eating popsicles. Now she knows how comfortable it is to eat popsicles in a warm house on a warm kang.
