Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

Seeing that he had sat down again to watch the projection, Chang Dongning went to the storage room with peace of mind. He found a stone mortar and pestle, washed it clean, put the pomegranate in it, pounded out the juice, and then filtered it with gauze. The pomegranate juice was ready.

"It's delicious." Xiao Changxuan took a sip, giving his mother positive feedback.

"Mom will prepare another cup for you tomorrow morning. It's in the refrigerator. You can take it if you want."

Chang Dongning didn't make much pomegranate juice; she drank the rest in two gulps and put most of the pomegranate back in the refrigerator.

Then I took out the fruit worm, peeled off its skin with a knife, removed its internal organs, leaving only the tender white flesh, and put it in the refrigerator.

While washing up, she wondered if she should buy a juicer so she could make soy milk.

The use of tools in the wasteland world is very fragmented. There are all kinds of advanced machines as well as all kinds of simple and primitive tools. The same is true for survival. Although there are relatively advanced technologies such as watches, most people still rely on the most primitive gathering to survive.

It is said that at the beginning, people also thought about restoring agricultural life, but they underestimated the lasting effects of radiation. Ordinary humans could not successfully grow crops in irradiated soil, air, and sunlight. In addition, the places where crops were grown and the places where humans lived had to be compacted with special materials, otherwise they would be disturbed by various snakes, insects, rodents, and ants.

The major safe zones have not given up on cultivation, but the current results are still limited to soilless cultivation in greenhouses and the spawning of wood-type ability users.

The Chang family's small courtyard was built by the original owner's grandparents. The Chang family's grandparents were not originally from this safe zone; they moved here from elsewhere. At that time, they had exhausted all their resources to build this small courtyard. The old couple were very frugal throughout their lives, and many of the original tools in the house were left behind by them.

After Chang Dongning finished washing up and cleaning up Xiao Changxuan, the mother and son lay down on the bed. She taught the child a few simple voice commands, but then she was so sleepy that she fell asleep immediately.

The next morning, on the way to the collection site, she used her watch to set a time slot for Chang Xuan to watch cartoons.

Today's harvesting site has a potato patch. Chang Dongning carefully walked in with a digging shovel. These root vegetable harvesting sites are usually riddled with holes, and you can easily twist your ankle or fall into a pit if you're not careful.

These plants are also exceptionally resilient. Even if they are dug up, tested, and left aside by humans, they will take root and sprout within a few days and grow into new plants. Even a single branch or leaf can grow independently.

After walking around for a while, I chose one that looked good and squatted down to start digging.

"Drip, high radiation level, not for consumption."

She dug up more than a dozen potatoes from one plant, each weighing two pounds. She was lucky; one of the potatoes had moderate radiation.

She had an incredible stroke of luck today; she detected nine edible items this morning and stored them all in her spatial storage.

There are no large trees near this collection point today, so when we need to avoid the scorching sun at noon, we can only hide under the taller plants.

Chang Dongning walked out of the potato field with only a basket containing tools on his back, found a plant that was more than two meters tall and looked like a Chinese cabbage, and sat down to rest in its shade.

This plant is inedible. It looks very tender, but it's actually full of fibrous material. It can't be steamed or boiled properly. Even if you grind it up in a machine, it's still hard to digest and has no nutritional value.

Although it's inedible, it was officially named the Giant Cabbage because it's so eye-catching—its white stems and emerald green leaves grow close together, making it particularly beautiful.

Unfortunately, even animals and insects won't eat it. The authorities once thought it was useless and took up space, so they removed it once. But no other plants grew on this land, so in the end, only this giant cabbage could continue to grow. As long as it is monitored regularly to prevent it from expanding, it will be fine.

Not long after Chang Dongning sat down, small groups of people emerged from the various edible plants and went to rest under the giant cabbage.

Most people's baskets were empty, and the potato yield was low. The small number of people who did manage to get their potatoes were very anxious, wishing they could hug their baskets or sacks to their chests.

Since everyone was gathered in one place for lunch break, it wasn't appropriate to do anything unusual. Chang Dongning obediently took her nutritional supplement, glanced at her child on her watch, saw him playing with stones in his room, thought for a moment, and then made a call.

"Mother?"

"Yes, I want to see what you're doing."

"Stone, play."

Have you had lunch yet?

I'm not hungry.

"Okay, eat when you're hungry, then take a nap. When you wake up, there will be new cartoons to watch." Chang Dongning was worried that he would watch too much, so she set a time limit, with another time to watch at 2 pm.

"Okay, Mom, where are you?"

"It's a faraway place. We'll be back tonight. Okay, Mom needs to rest now. Take good care of yourself."

After receiving Chang Xuan's reply, she hung up the call, glanced at the people resting not far away, and then leaned against the giant cabbage to close her eyes and rest.

In the afternoon, she didn't want to dig anymore, so she turned around and went into a grove of berry bushes. These berries were officially named the colorful berries, a very straightforward name. The same plants grew small berries of different shapes and colors, and the branches had many small thorns. Most people didn't come to pick these berries because they were too small. After testing for a long time, they couldn't find many that were edible, so it wasn't worth it.

Chang Dongning had a good harvest in the morning, and since she still had children at home, she wanted to bring some delicious fruit back with her.

"Ouch!" Before the test was even completed, I got pricked by a thorn on a branch.

Chang Dongning raised his hand, glanced at his gloves, and added an item to his must-buy list: harvesting gloves. These gloves have a coating on the outside, and once the coating cracks or thins, the protective effect is not good. This small thorn was stuck in the edge of the cracked coating.

She wiped the dirt off the testing scissors with her clothes, then used the scissors to cut open the berry's skin. She had originally thought the berries were too small and wanted to use something smaller to puncture them for testing with her watch, which is why she reached out to pull the branch.

"Drip, high radiation level, not for consumption."

"Drip, high radiation level, not for consumption."

Chang Dongning spent the entire afternoon bending over to inspect the berries. The yield was actually not low, at least thirty berries, filling a folding box. However, compared to potatoes, it seemed like a small amount, and not enough to fill one's stomach.

At 3:30, Chang Dongning packed the box into a burlap sack and put it into her basket. She went into the berry grove, which many people saw. It would be suspicious if she didn't have any harvest.

On the way back, she chose a messy patch of grass and walked along, selecting plants that looked pleasing to the eye for testing.

"Drip, high radiation level, not for consumption."

"Drip, high radiation level, not for consumption."

......

"Drip, low radiation, edible."

Ok?
