Chapter 813

He worked until seven o'clock in the morning, when the sun came out and the dew on the plants evaporated, Bai Qinghao collected a total of [-] milliliters of dew.

After filling three medicine bottles with [-] milliliters, he poured water into the medicine box, and the empty bottles continued to collect dew.

Therefore, the water that condensed in the medicine box was one pound and two taels, plus the one thousand milliliters of dew he collected, and there was a total of three catties and two taels of water.

Add it up and it will be enough for two people to drink for a day.

At least, the situation is much better than yesterday.

After collecting the dew, he returned to the shed with the medicine box for water storage. He originally planned to go to the beach to catch sea crabs.

But saw that Fang Xinxin had already woken up, not only had the fire built, but even the sea crabs had been steamed, and the steamed red sea crabs were arranged in rows on the big leaves beside the fire.

That's right, this time it's not grilled crabs, it's steamed!
Fang Xinxin actually got up after Bai Qinghao woke up.

It can't be that her husband is busy, so she sleeps soundly, right?

It's not impossible to sleep.

However, she was also full of sleep, so seeing him go to collect dew, she went to catch sea crabs at the place far away from yesterday on the beach.

This time, she didn't use his shirt as a cloth pocket, but used the bamboo basket weaved yesterday to hold the crabs, and it took more than two hours to fill the basket.

Turning back to the shed built against the mountain rock, the fire that was lit last night was extinguished before she got up.

However, she is not worried, if there is no fire, the big deal is to drill wood to make fire again.

Fortunately, after digging out the ashes from the pile of firewood, there is still a small amount of kindling burning in the shallow pit.

Immediately she put a bunch of dry grass and dry twigs on the kindling, and blew on the kindling, and the fire, which was burning like carbon, became more and more hot, burning the dry grass and twigs.

In this way, adding firewood, she raised another pile of firewood.

He piled the stones that Bai Qinghao picked up yesterday into a stove, put the largest natural concave stone on it to make a stone pot, and under the pot was a blazing fire.

It took half an hour for the thick stone pot to heat up.

She thought that she couldn't eat food boiled in seawater, but she could always eat food steamed by the steam from the seawater.

So, she picked big leaves and folded them into a bucket, went to the beach, poured sea water into the stone pot, and crossed a few straight firewood on the stone pot.

This becomes a simple steam rack.

Put the fresh sea crabs on the steaming rack, let the sea water be smoked by the boiled water vapor over the sea crabs, and the crabs will be cooked slowly.

If the crab is steamed at home, it can be cooked in 15 minutes.

However, there is no lid on the pot, and the steam escapes quickly, and her crabs take about four to ten minutes to cook.

Instead, she simmered a circle of crabs by the fire, which had already been cooked by the fire.

When Bai Qinghao came back, there were only four steamed crabs, and the rest were roasted and stewed.

When she saw him enter the shed, she raised a happy smile, "Husband, have breakfast!"

Bai Qinghao originally thought that it would take another two or three hours to catch crabs and light a fire.

Unexpectedly, when he came back, his wife had already done all of this.

He was very moved immediately, but felt sorry for her labor.

He strode to her side, didn't take care of the food first, but grabbed her little hand, and felt relieved when he saw that there were no blood bubbles on it.

He was afraid that if the fire was extinguished, if she drilled wood to make fire, she would hurt her hands by rubbing sticks.

Seeing that her hands are fine, it means that the tinder he reserved last night was properly preserved.

Fang Xinxin opened the medicine box that stored water, and from the volume of the medicine box, he deduced very accurately that there was about three catties and two ounces of water in it. He was very surprised, "Why is there so much dew?"
