Zhao Xiaoxiu was relatively restrained, but Monkey Sister was absolutely ecstatic when she saw the peanuts and melon seeds. She squeaked and quickly stretched out her paws to grab them, and a liquid that looked like saliva flowed from her mouth and dripped onto the ground.
Before its claws could even touch the white film of the packaging, a tentacle swept over quickly and snapped its claws away with a "snap".
Sister Monkey let out a low roar, her eyes instantly turning red with rage as she searched for the culprit.
Upon discovering it was Zhao Gang, he instantly wilted like a frostbitten eggplant, looking utterly dejected.
But drool still kept flowing from the corners of his mouth.
Although Zhao Xiaoxiu felt sorry for Sister Monkey, she couldn't help but laugh out loud at its comical appearance.
"Squeak!" Sister Monkey, enraged, deliberately bared her teeth to scare Zhao Xiaoxiu.
Zhao Xiaoxiu was not frightened at all.
She stopped laughing and gently stroked the bristling brown fur on Monkey Sister's arm to soothe her, "Haste makes waste, Monkey Sister, don't be in a hurry."
Zhao Gang warned sternly, "You can't eat peanuts and melon seeds right now."
"Why?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked the question that Monkey Sister most wanted to ask.
She sniffed; the mutated peanuts smelled really good.
On the contrary, the sunflower seeds looked tasteless; no aroma of sunflower seeds wafted out of the open shells.
If it weren't for the fact that it looks almost exactly like unmutated peanuts and melon seeds, you really wouldn't be able to tell what it is.
However, Sister Monkey has planted Evolution Sunflowers before. Both Evolution Sunflowers and Mutant Sunflowers love to sing, and their kernels can also open.
The only difference is that the kernels in the evolved sunflower are sweet and delicious, while the kernels in the mutated sunflower are tasteless.
It was too excited just now and didn't realize that the sunflower seeds inside the white membrane were actually a mutant variety, making its mouth water.
Now, reminded by Zhao Gang, the monkey calmed down, took a careful sniff, shook its head wildly, and took three steps back.
Zhao Xiaoxiu, watching from the side, found it even more amusing.
Zhao Gang said, "These low-grade mutated peanuts and sunflower seeds don't taste good right now. They'll taste better when I have time to prepare them."
Zhao Xiaoxiu nodded to show that she understood, secretly looking forward to it. She had great confidence in her father's cooking skills!
The yogurt at home was still not finished, so Zhao Xiaoxiu unpacked the entire new carton and put it in the refrigerator.
Although yogurt won't spoil even if left outside in this weather, how can we not use our newly bought refrigerator?
Zhao Xiaoxiu directed Sister Hou to arrange the yogurt bottles neatly in a row, close the refrigerator door, and then pretended to open it for the first time. She immediately saw the yogurt bottles inside the refrigerator and felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
She clenched her fist secretly, thinking to herself, "I must fill the refrigerator with all the foods I like to eat!"
Zhao Gang boiled some water and, while he was at it, used the embers in the stove to heat a pot of charcoal, intending to check its quality.
Each piece of charcoal, as thick as a human arm, burned in the earthenware basin filled with ash. It produced almost no smoke and was very easy to ignite, but it was so easy to burn that it didn't seem to last very long.
But the indoor temperature quickly rose, and Zhao Xiaoxiu was already quite satisfied.
"If only all the evolved potato seeds hadn't been sprouted, then we could have baked potatoes and eaten them..." the cub muttered softly.
Zhao Gang patted her head, "It will happen, it will happen in the future."
Remind her that it's time to go back to her room and sleep.
Zhao Xiaoxiu nodded and then asked Monkey Sister if she wanted to take some charcoal to the greenhouse to burn, but Monkey Sister punched her chest and glared at her.
It has thick fur, so it doesn't need charcoal!
After roaring, it darted into the woodshed, then went through the back door to sleep in the tree hollow in the greenhouse.
Zhao Xiaoxiu scoffed, "So what if you have fur!"
He crossed his arms and stomped upstairs angrily, making the tentacles behind Zhao Gang who were helping to carry the charcoal braziers laugh. They grinned, their mouths full of teeth, and made hissing noises.
I had a good night's sleep.
Zhao Xiaoxiu rarely gets up so early.
As dawn broke, Zhao Gang was already busy outside.
With electricity comes water, and he plans to replace all the broken water pipes in his house and then get a water pump to draw water from the river.
The water tower brought back from Jiangcheng has been installed on the roof. Once it's full of water, we can use the water heater to shower and wash vegetables every day.
Automatic hot water is something that anyone who has ever lived in a city cannot refuse.
However, there is no water heater or water pump in the house right now.
Zhao Gang planned to wait for Mo Shigui to return and ask him to get two units for him.
He'd "looked" at all the houses in Block B, but without these things, he couldn't find a bargain.
Zhao Gang was busy connecting water pipes outside. Zhao Xiaoxiu finished a bottle of warmed nutrient solution, stuffed two bottles of yogurt and two persimmons into her small backpack, called Sister Monkey, picked up the bucket and the hoverboard, and planned to go to the river to catch some small fish.
Just as I was about to leave, I suddenly heard a voice coming from the walkie-talkie hanging behind the gate.
[I am Lord No. 12 in Zone B. If you need any edible low-level mutated fish fry, you can bring your winter supplies to exchange with me.]
Zhao Gang, who was sawing the water pipe, looked over in surprise.
Zhao Xiaoxiu had forgotten about the confiscated walkie-talkies, and she didn't expect that they would suddenly receive messages from other people nearby, even though they were always on.
"It's a sound coming from the public channel. Dad, we can use the public channel to send messages to other lords in the future."
It can even transmit information to the outside world, so that anyone listening to a public channel at that moment can hear it.
With such vast distances between territories and not everyone having a satellite phone, walkie-talkies naturally became the most cost-effective communication tool.
