Xie Shu opened his eyes again, it was almost 11 o'clock. Thinking of the promise she had made before going upstairs last night to prepare lunch today, Xie Shu did not continue to lie in bed. The spring water she drank before going to bed had replenished her energy and strength, and she had a good sleep. When she got up, she was full of energy and energy. She could even go straight to the treadmill to sweat out for an hour.

After getting up and washing up, Jie Shu looked at his phone. More than 20 minutes ago, in a small group of three people, Mo Yangyang had a problem.

[Is Shu Shu awake? 】

【Yangyang has been waiting for you~】

Jie Shu pursed his lips and chuckled. He replied and got down immediately, ducking into the space first. Since they agreed to cook in person, they thought that after the heavy rain, although Mo Yangyang and Liang Xiaozhen had some reserves, due to lack of sufficient replenishment, they had been frugal and had not had an "indulgent meal" for a long time. , Jie Shu was thinking about taking out some suitable food from the space before going to bed last night. Unlike before, if you want to show off your skills, you can mobilize the entire kitchen and use each ingredient in turn. Sometimes, just for a mouthful of soup stock, you can stew chicken, pig's trotters, bacon, shellfish, etc. for several hours. .

But now, although Xie Shu has enough ingredients, complete equipment, and plenty of time, there is no reason to serve it on the table. So we can only choose some suitable ingredients, ingredients that can be used in the current situation where food has been cut off for a long time.

At this time, Xie Shu was walking around the side room selecting suitable ingredients. The ingredients should not be too eye-catching. After such a long time, any of them, such as fresh beef, mutton, eggs, etc., could not be taken out directly. Fortunately, although there was a complete power outage, Xie Shu showed Liang Mo and the others the existence of a generator here, as well as a small freezer, so it seemed much more reasonable to take out frozen products, even meat.

So Xie Shu took out two boxes of fat beef rolls and various kinds of meatballs from the frozen goods area, which he got when he purchased the goods from the supermarket. Although it takes a lot of effort to travel around, compared to fresh supplies obtained from markets and slaughterhouses, the reserves obtained from supermarkets naturally have a longer shelf life and are more convenient in the future in some cases. Get your hands out. After taking out the beef and meatballs, Xie Shu decided to cook hot pot for a while. As for the soup base, the water was too bland. The mushrooms needed seasoning and couldn't get them out, so they chose tomatoes. You can’t use fresh tomatoes for cooking the soup base, so use a small can of canned tomatoes instead. Sesame paste and other other ingredients are leftover from the kitchen. They are all unpacked materials and will look awkward. As for other things, green onions can be used. Pick fresh ones downstairs, and you can also pick some other fresh vegetables, and then mix them with some dried vegetables. After a while, soak them in water and you can serve them in hot pot.

After cleaning up, Xie Shu took out a bottle of mineral water and poured the original water into the kettle in the living room. The empty bottle was filled with some spring water from the jade pond. The battle last night went through a lot of twists and turns. After the whole process was over, I was exhausted both physically and mentally. Due to its possible connection with supernatural powers and the secret space behind it, Jie Shu did not dare to share this spring water with two people at will, but it was good to use it to relieve fatigue occasionally.

After packing his things, Xie Shu went downstairs carrying two full plastic bags.

……

"You don't need to bring so many things to cook? You have brought so much, Shu Shu, do you have enough to eat there?" Mo Yangyang opened the door and saw that Xie Shu was carrying so many things and hurried up to help carry them to the kitchen.

"Didn't you agree that I will cook? To celebrate, we will have hot pot for lunch today."

"Wow! Is it true!? I haven't had hot pot for a long time! Really! Really! Shu Shu said we will have hot pot for lunch today!" Mo Yangyang happily rushed to the living room to share with Liang Xiaozhen.

After hearing the hot pot, Liang Xiaozhen was a little surprised at first, and then smiled a little. Walking to the kitchen, Liang Xiaozhen asked, "Is there enough food to cook hot pot?" Seeing Mo Yangyang's happy look, Liang Xiaozhen Xiaozhen would not pour cold water on them and directly pointed out that eating hot pot was too extravagant at this moment. After all, compared to others, their food reserves were sufficient. Although hot pot seemed precious, in the final analysis, the ingredients were just common foods.

"The beef and meatballs have been frozen in my freezer for a long time. I bought them before the rainstorm and I haven't been willing to take them apart. Fortunately, there is a generator, otherwise these would not have been preserved until now." Xie Shu packed them up and followed Liang Xiaozhen explained, "The vegetables are only the dried vegetables from before. We soak them in water and cook the hot pot. The taste will not be bad after all." After saying this, Xie Shu raised his hand and shook the not-so-rich dried vegetables in his hand.

"I'm here to help you. There are instant noodles here and some more vegetables." Liang Xiaozhen took out the instant noodles and dried vegetables from the cabinet where the food was placed without hesitation, "I'll soak the vegetables." He also saw the food reserves of the two people and knew what was going on. "Okay, then I'll boil the bottom of the pot."

"Me, me, me! And me! I'm here to help too!" After Mo Yangyang was happy, she ran into the living room. The three of them were busy preparing, not caring about the special ingredients, but looking at this scene, it seemed like they had never seen it before. There had been heavy rain and last night's fighting.

……

Not long after, a tomato soup pot was placed on the dining table in the living room. Xie Shu turned on the induction cooker to keep the bottom of the pot boiling. Mo Yangyang brought out several small plates back and forth, and was very enthusiastic about eating hot pot. There were no drinks on the table. Although they were celebrating the eradication of a group of bandits led by Wang Pengyu, the current situation did not allow them to cheer and cheer. After all, they had to avoid the people downstairs. But with the iron gate outside, the three of them could not drink. People are not restrained like before, and are more relaxed in comparison.

As soon as Xie Shu took his seat, Mo Yangyang suggested that the three of them clink their dipping bowls to celebrate. "Shu Shu, thank you very much." Putting down the bowls and chopsticks, Xie Shu began to put the beef into the pot. Before he could take it out to eat, Mo Yangyang spoke and looked carefully. There seemed to be a twinge in his eyes. Tears. Liang Xiaozhen glanced at Mo Yangyang, then turned to look at Xie Shu firmly, "I'm also very grateful, Shu Shu. If it weren't for you, Yangyang and I don't know what kind of life we ​​would be living now."

"I thought about it for a long time before going to bed last night. I have held you back too much. Shushu, you should obviously be more in need of protection, but the person being protected has always been me." As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yangyang's eyes The tears that had been swirling inside her fell down.

Seeing this, Jie Shu hurried forward and wiped away Mo Yangyang's tears with a tissue. "We are all friends. Today is a celebration. It's not good to shed tears." After saying that, he picked up Mo Yangyang's chopsticks and gave them to her. He put a piece of fat beef into the bowl, patted her back and comforted her, "Eat it quickly, the fat beef will not be tender if it is cooked again."

"The same goes for Xiaozhen, eat quickly." After saying that, he looked at Liang Xiaozhen and raised his head to signal the other person to eat meat quickly.

Mo Yangyang wiped away her tears, picked up the bowl, lowered her head, and picked up the piece of fat beef roll with her chopsticks, "Yeah! Don't worry! I, Mo Yangyang, will definitely protect you!" After saying that, he picked up the fat beef roll. He stuffed it into his mouth and said while eating, "It's delicious! It's so delicious!" Hearing Mo Yangyang say it's delicious, Xie Shu also smiled, "If it's delicious, eat more. Although there is a freezer, it can't always be there. Freezing.”

……

"Ah! It's delicious! The bottom of the pot cooked by Shu Shu is so fragrant. I feel refreshed after eating it!"

Hearing this, Xie Shu understood in his heart that when boiling the bottom of the pot, Xie Shu specially added half a bottle of spring water. Although the effect was definitely not as good as drinking it directly, it was the only way to use the hot pot to cover up the spring water and relieve fatigue. The effect is not surprising. "Just have fun eating, and don't cry casually in the future. We can't predict what will happen in the future, so just be prepared to deal with it." After eating and drinking, the three of them looked at the future again, either looking forward to it or feeling lonely. Discussing.

"But having said that, Shu Shu, should we just ignore those people downstairs?" Liang Xiaozhen asked.

"Logically, we don't need to worry about anything. However, they originally wanted to go to the official base. Now that Wang Pengyu's ships are here, it should be possible for a few ships to squeeze in."

After a discussion, the three of them decided on a solution. They did not take the initiative to drive away the people in the building. They just temporarily appeared as a suppressive and management image to prevent them from having inexplicable conflicts and to avoid the appearance of the next "Wang Pengyu" .
