Not long after the baking, around 8:30 a.m., fog suddenly fell outside. The fog quickly thickened, and in less than half an hour, visibility in the yard was less than 20 meters.
"This fog is so thick!" Xiao Yu couldn't help but exclaim, "There are fewer cars on the road now, so the chances of a car accident should be low, right?"
It was past nine o'clock and the two girls who had gotten up early fell asleep.
Xiao Yu had originally wanted to take his sons out to play, but it turned out to be very good. The two boys had played too long last night, and had eaten their breakfast in their father's arms, half asleep, and now at nine o'clock they were still sleeping like little pigs.

"Are you forcing me to work?" Xiao Yu was depressed. He had no books he liked, no computer, no mobile phone, and he was too embarrassed to lie down in bed and take a nap during the day.
There is simply no other way to go except to do things!
Xiao Yu wanted to escape underground and go to the surrounding areas of Sijiu City to look for incense, but he was afraid that someone would suddenly come to the courtyard.
Xiao Yu went to the kitchen and took out the pig fat and several pounds of pork belly that Xiao Liu had brought back from the butcher shop early this morning. He planned to stew the pork belly into braised pork.
In this kind of weather, the braised pork can be kept for several days. If you want to save some, just stew a few pieces with cabbage at each meal.
Lard can be refined into lard residue, which can be used to make dumplings, buns, etc.
Although the courtyard was ready, they had just returned and couldn't just run away. Moreover, according to the old man's work, they only sat in the office for a few days before they had to get busy.
Xiao Yu was not so unable to tolerate even this.

After stewing the pork belly in a large casserole, Xiao Yu quickly cut the lard and began to refine it. According to the old man's instructions, this oil was prepared for them to take back to the courtyard to eat.
Pork fat is hard to come by for ordinary people. Given the current supply, it's incredibly lucky to snag one at a butcher's station. They used a lot of fat at the banquet yesterday, and the old man saw it. He couldn't bear to see his grandson's soup become watery.
In order to add more surprises to the dumplings later and to fill the can with meat oil, Xiao Yu took out the other half of the fat pork from the space and took some of the fat-filled pork belly from it.
While the oil was refining in the pot, Xiao Yu washed the cabbage and radish.
The cabbage was naturally for making dumplings, and as for the radish, he would prepare it later. If there was too much oil residue, he would make some buns. The buns he had last time were so delicious that he couldn't eat enough.

Xiao Yu was busy until noon, even listening to his grandfather's radio while making dumplings. But even after the four children finished their complementary food, Xiao Liu and Zhou Yan still hadn't returned. The fog outside the door was still thicker.
Around two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Yu finally realized that something was wrong.
No matter how thick the fog was, it couldn't have stood still by 2 or 3 in the afternoon. He spread his spiritual sense, and the entire XXX community was extremely quiet.
Those who did not go out were trapped at home because the visibility in front of every household was less than one meter. If people walked into the yard and could not see the bluestone road on the ground, they could get lost in the yard.
"Is there something wrong with the fog?" Xiao Yu thought this was a bit exaggerated. He probed the power of incense into the fog and immediately felt a strong yin energy.
Shit! What’s going on?
