Qiao An'an made a cup of milk for Ya Ya, and after Ya Ya finished drinking the milk, she coaxed her to sleep. After quietly closing the door, she went downstairs to the kitchen to check the supplies.
As she passed through the gate, she peeked through the crack and saw that all the pedestrians on the street had turned into zombies. They were wandering around aimlessly, and after hearing a sound, they would run frantically towards the source of the sound at an astonishing speed.
Just now, Qiao An'an witnessed firsthand how the zombies smashed through the shop's glass and rushed inside because of a child's crying.
Qiao An'an couldn't bear to watch any longer and began to organize the supplies.
The bathroom cabinets were all full.
Because it's far from large supermarkets, Qiao An'an buys all her toilet paper, sanitary napkins, diapers, baby powder, and various toiletries online at once. If she's careful with what she buys, it should last her a year or two without any problem.
She and Ya Ya didn't have many clothes in their wardrobe, but they had clothes for spring, summer, autumn and winter. In the apocalypse, beauty and ugliness didn't matter; enough was enough.
However, since she moved in during the summer, the bedding she bought were all thin summer blankets. Now she only has one thick blanket at home. There will definitely be no heating this year, and one blanket will hardly be enough to keep her warm in winter.
More than keeping warm, Qiao An'an was worried about food. She quickly went into the kitchen and looked through the food supplies.
The good news is that when she bought the condiments like oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar, there was a promotion on Taobao where you could get 30 free for every 300 yuan spent. She stocked up on a lot, and it looks like it will last her for two or three years.
The downside is that the market is right at her doorstep, so Qiao An'an basically buys and eats vegetables fresh and doesn't have the habit of stocking up.
There were two bunches of bok choy (one bunch of Shanghai bok choy and one bunch of Chinese cabbage) and four tomatoes left in the refrigerator, and half a bag of potatoes on the floor.
There were ten eggs, a bag of flour, two bags of rice, and three bundles of noodles left in the cupboard.
On the cutting board was half a pig that hadn't been processed yet, and in the bucket next to it were five wild crucian carp that had been bought along with the pork to supplement Ya Ya's calcium intake.
Qiao An'an planned to process the pork first, otherwise she would have to use the non-renewable firewood in the yard to start cooking again after the gas was turned off.
Fearing that the noise would alert the zombies outside, she first closed the kitchen door tightly, and then deliberately placed a thick towel under the cutting board when she was cutting the meat.
She cut the fatty meat into small pieces and rendered lard over low heat.
Not to mention, pork fat really does release a lot of oil. She made two large soup pots of pork, which should be enough for her and Yaya to eat for a year and a half. In addition to pork fat, there is also a bottle of unopened salad oil and half a bottle of soybean oil at home. If they use it sparingly, it should last for two or three years without any problem.
Qiao An'an picked up a piece of rendered pork fat and put it in her mouth.
It's fragrant and crispy.
This stuff can be stored for a long time. She plans to put it in the refrigerator and take it out as a treat when she runs out of pork and there's no more meat to eat.
She separated the remaining lean pork and bones, cut them into about 300 pieces of about two ounces each, and put them into a pot in batches to boil in plain water.
Thinking that Yaya might not be able to stand eating boiled pork all the time, she cut a piece of pork tenderloin from the leanest part, divided it into several small pieces, and froze it directly in the refrigerator.
She didn't dare chop the ribs into pieces, afraid of making too much noise, so she only cut them out one by one, about twenty in total. After sprinkling them with honey sauce she learned online, she wrapped them in aluminum foil and put them in the oven to bake.
While she was cooking meat and roasting ribs, she kneaded out all the flour from both bags, added yeast, and prepared to make steamed buns.
One bag of flour can make at least 300 steamed buns. She and Yaya can eat one at a time, which can last for more than three months. In addition, there are two bags of rice weighing 100 jin and three bundles of noodles. They can make do for two or three years without any problem. It's just that the rice may become a bit stale towards the end.
But when that time comes, we won't care whether the rice sinks or not.
As long as I can survive, that's all that matters.
However, she had limited meat and vegetables at home. The mysterious person said, "A major epidemic will not last more than three years; if it does, disaster will surely follow." She felt that the global outbreak of the zombie virus was definitely caused by human factors, meaning that it might not be possible to suppress the zombie virus for three years. So how could she and Yaya ensure their intake of protein and vitamin C with so little meat and vegetables at home?
She's an adult, so it's fine if she eats less, but Yaya is only three years old. How can she not eat meat and vegetables?
