Lu Chuan was in charge of dealing with the battlefield, while Xu Han went to take a shower first.
After Xu Han finished showering, she fell asleep on the bed without even drying her hair.
When Lu Chuan entered the room, he saw Xu Han sleeping on her stomach with her hair hanging off the bed. The posture was particularly strange, and Lu Chuan couldn't help but chuckle when he saw it.
Then, resignedly, he picked up a cloth and dried Xu Han's hair, and then adjusted her sleeping position.
Xu Han didn't even wake up the whole time, she just groaned uncomfortably a couple of times, and then changed to a more comfortable position and fell asleep again.
The next morning, after breakfast, Xu Han put on her sun protection gear, carried her basket, and followed Lu Chuan to the pond he had mentioned.
After walking for about an hour, they finally arrived at their destination and found a shady spot under the trees to sit down.
As soon as she sat down, Xu Han couldn't wait to start trying to catch crayfish.
First, tie the chicken intestines to the rope, then throw it directly into the river. After a short while, you'll see the fishing rod start to move.
Xu Han quickly lifted the fishing rod, and Lu Chuan, seeing this, very perceptively used a landing net to catch the rod.
"Lu Chuan, look! There really are small and big insects, so many!" Xu Han exclaimed excitedly.
"There are quite a lot, we're in for a treat," Lu Chuan said happily.
Even though I knew it was inevitable, when Xu Han caught it and saw how happy she was, I felt happy too.
"Let's use all these fishing rods! Let's see how many we can catch today. We must catch as many as possible! Spicy worms, garlic worms, and worm noodles are all delicious. I love them all," Xu Han continued excitedly.
“Okay, let’s catch more fish, relax a bit, and do something less strenuous,” Lu Chuan added.
It has to be said that having a partner who doesn't spoil the fun really doubles the happiness. No matter what you do, whether it's right or wrong, or what the outcome is, your partner will unconditionally support you and stay with you.
Having a partner who doesn't spoil the fun is truly a blessing.
The two of them fished for lobsters while eating snacks prepared in their space. It didn't feel like they were there to stock up on food; rather, it felt more like they were going out fishing to relax.
At noon, Xu Han took the food directly from her spatial storage. Actually, neither of them was very hungry, because they had been eating the whole time.
I ate some fruit, then an ice pop, then a handful of pine nuts and walnuts, and paired it with sweet and sour fruit tea. Just eating these things was enough to fill me up.
Xu Han barely ate any food, while Lu Chuan ate some rice, otherwise he would have been hungry again soon.
They continued fishing for crayfish in the afternoon until the sun began to set, at which point the two packed up and prepared to go home.
"What a great catch today! So many big worms, enough for several meals. Let's come back to fish a few more times when we have time! It's as addictive as picking mushrooms or digging for wild vegetables," Xu Han said as she walked.
"Sure! We'll come whenever you want," Lu Chuan said to Xu Han with particular affection.
Hearing the answer she wanted, Xu Han happily hummed a little tune and skipped home.
Once home, Xu Han took out a bucket of crayfish from her spatial storage and poured them into a large basin.
When the crayfish were taken out of the space again, they were already dead and motionless, making them much easier to clean. At least they wouldn't pinch their hands anymore, which saved the two of them a lot of time and avoided the pain of being pinched by crayfish.
Clean the crayfish thoroughly, remove the shrimp veins, and put them in a bowl for later use.
Heat oil in a wok, then fry the crayfish briefly. This will make the meat firmer and tastier.
After frying, take them out, heat oil in a separate pot, add hot pot base and spices, then pour the crayfish into the pot, add two cans of beer and appropriate seasonings.
Soon the aroma of crayfish filled the air. It smelled amazing!
Xu Han took a deep breath. This was the taste! She hadn't had it for almost two years. She really missed it!
After finishing, Xu Han filled a large bowl and then began to teach Lu Chuan how to eat crayfish.
"Just like that, gently twist the tail with your hand and you can pull it out. Then suck the meat out. Don't lose the big claws either, there's a lot of meat inside, and the shrimp roe is also very fragrant."
As Xu Han spoke, she demonstrated for Lu Chuan, mainly because she herself really wanted to eat it and couldn't wait a moment longer.
Following Xu Han's example, Lu Chuan began to eat in a very serious manner, and the two of them finished a whole bowl of crayfish in no time.
A mountain of shrimp shells had already been piled up on the table, and Lu Chuan and Xu Han were slurping from the spiciness.
It's so delicious, spicy and tasty, I just can't stop eating it. Eating only crayfish definitely won't fill me up, so Xu Han went and made a bowl of noodles, then put them directly into the broth and mixed them in.
Even the noodles have absorbed the flavor of crayfish, making them especially delicious with their numbing and spicy taste.
After a satisfying meal, the two lay on deck chairs, rubbing their stomachs to help them digest.
After lying down for a while, Xu Han pulled Lu Chuan up and said, "Let's go for a walk to digest our food, otherwise our stomachs will definitely feel uncomfortable later."
The two strolled around the yard for fifteen minutes before clearing the table after their meal, then went to wash up and go to bed.
The next morning, Xu Han went to the backyard and the wasteland outside to pick vegetables early in the morning.
Because of the hot weather, the vegetables are not growing well this year. They are half-dead, and the leaves are yellow and look malnourished.
We harvested all the harvestable vegetables, filling a little over three baskets in total.
This is almost half less than last year, it's heartbreaking to think about.
Lu Chuan went hunting today, so only Xu Han and the dogs are at home.
After harvesting the vegetables, Xu Han took a bucket and the dogs to the stream. Her goal for the day was clear: to collect snails like crazy.
I'll try to collect all the snails in the stream today. Then I'll make them all into spicy snails. Let's get started!
Xu Hanzhen spent the whole day collecting snails. At noon, she went home for lunch, took a nap, and then continued collecting them.
They waited until Lu Chuan returned before going home together.
After resting for only a short while, Xu Han went to the waterfall to fetch water again, and quickly poured the water on the waterfall before it got dark.
The soil has cracked from not watering for several days; it must be thoroughly watered today.
The two of them worked together and watered the land quickly, finally finishing just before it got completely dark.
