While others are struggling to survive and slaying zombies in the apocalypse, I'm hoarding supp

Luo Ning said she wanted to eat seafood, even though time was tight.

Xiao Jie still prepared a whole table of food.

Spicy stir-fried sea cucumber, steamed clams with egg, garlic oysters, stir-fried crab with ginger and scallions, braised ribbonfish, salt and pepper shrimp, and seafood in a light sauce.

As soon as the three little ones heard that dinner was served, they ran over excitedly.

Keluoning had been hungry and had eaten a lot of snacks, and with the hot weather, her appetite had greatly diminished.

Looking at the dishes on the table, she turned to Xiao Jie with a puzzled expression, "Would you like some sashimi?"

She remembered that she had collected a lot of high-end seafood suitable for sashimi, and she had just taken it out and put it in the refrigerator.

Xiao Jie couldn't possibly have missed it.

Xiao Jie brought her a pot of stewed fish maw with milk and red dates, and saw her resentful expression.

I placed the stew pot in front of her. "Eating too much raw or cold food is not good. Drink this fish maw stewed in milk. I added ice cubes, so it's very cold. The seafood in the sauce is also cold."

It was hot, and he knew she wanted something cold, but her body really wouldn't allow it, so he asked Ji Zhoubai to check on her.

I don't know why, but although she looks healthy on the surface, she is severely depleted internally.

Her period was about to start, so she shouldn't eat anything too cold. He only dared to put a little bit of ice in the fish maw stewed in milk and the seafood salad.

"Alright," Luo Ning nodded.

Knowing that he was thinking about his own health, I wasn't so ungrateful as to insist on eating sashimi.

Her health is indeed not very good, and now that we have so many supplies...

She can't possibly survive this dangerous apocalyptic world by ruining her health because of her gluttony.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Jie knew she had given in; sometimes she was so obedient that it made people's hearts soften.

They immediately peeled shrimp and crabs for her, and while she hesitated for a short while, the group was already happily eating.

Luo Ning placed the peeled shrimp and disassembled crab in front of her, and Luo Ning and the three little ones fought over the food.

In fact, Xiao Jie made enough food for several people, but Luo Ning liked to fight with them for food, as if it tasted better that way.

After finishing their meal, the group went up to the terrace.

The mushroom mycelium I planted a while ago has grown quite a bit, and it should be ready to bear fruit in a few more days.

123 wanted to lift it up to take a look, but Luo Ning stopped it.

"Don't lift it. If you lift it, it might not grow properly behind it, and it could get infected."

123 immediately froze, "Host, when can we eat the mushrooms we grew ourselves?!"

"I don't know either."

Luo Ning squatted on the ground, she didn't know either, but Xiao Jie said that it couldn't be opened for the time being.

123 thought of the stir-fried mixed mushrooms he had a few days ago and licked his lips.

Although Luo Ning had collected a lot of supplies of various kinds, there were really not many fresh mushrooms.

Ningcheng doesn't produce a lot of mushrooms; the few we collected were all found in a refrigerated truck, just a few baskets in total.

As for the bacterial strains in her hands, some were bought before the apocalypse but not yet planted, and some were found in an agricultural supply store.

The quantity is not large, but the variety is quite rich.

There are shiitake mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, black fungus, king oyster mushrooms, lion's mane mushrooms...

There are also some difficult-to-grow mushrooms such as termite mushrooms, matsutake mushrooms, porcini mushrooms, morel mushrooms, and silver ear fungus. Luo Ning has planted more than a dozen kinds in total, and she doesn't know if she can grow some of them.

Her experience in growing mushrooms came from short videos she watched online before the apocalypse, most of which were created by Xiao Jie.

Luo Ning didn't know what Xiao Jie did before the apocalypse, but he always felt that Xiao Jie had a wealth of life experience.

He can cook, farm, and even do technically challenging tasks like growing mushrooms.

He's an absolute all-rounder!

As long as Xiao Jie has no intention of rebelling, Luo Ning is willing to let him remain in this position, second only to the emperor.

Luo Ning glanced at Xiao Jie with satisfaction, feeling that her efforts to save him from the zombie horde had not been in vain.

Xiao Jie didn't understand her gaze, but he didn't dwell on it either. She sometimes had some whimsical ideas that were hard to comprehend.

"It should be about another week before the mushrooms appear." Thinking she was also curious about when the mushrooms would appear, Xiao Jie coaxed her gently, "Just be patient for a few more days and we'll unveil them later."

Luo Ning pulled her hand back from the shade net, smiled awkwardly, and admitted she was genuinely curious about when the mushrooms would sprout.

Seeing that her face was red from the sun, Xiao Jie took out a large sun hat and handed it to her.

Luo Ning took it and put it on her head. "Where did you come from?"

She didn't remember having this at home.

"I saw it was okay when I went out, so I brought it back."

Xiao Jie has been going out every day without returning empty-handed lately; he always brings something back with him.

Her birthday is coming soon, and he wants to prepare a birthday gift for her.

Luo Ning stood up and went to inspect his 200-square-meter territory again.

As I walked, I heard the sound of bees.

Looking up, I saw a small honeycomb in the corner of the storage room on the left.

"Xiao Jie, look, isn't that a bee?"

Luo Ning raised her hand in surprise and pointed it out to Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie stepped forward, identified the bee, and nodded. "It's a bee. Looks like we'll have honey to eat from now on."

"Really bees?" Luo Ning's eyes widened in surprise.

"Hmm, I'll make them a beehive later."

"What will they eat? Nectar? We don't seem to have many flowers on our terrace. Where can we find flowers outside for them to eat?"

Luo Ning looked around the terrace, which was mostly filled with various grains, vegetables and fruits.

The vegetables that are currently flowering are tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, eggplants, peppers, and green beans. Some of them are still flowering, but will bees eat them?

By the way, a few days ago she also found a two- or three-meter-tall osmanthus tree and planted it by the fishpond. Now you can smell the osmanthus fragrance from a long distance away.

All that's left are two rose bushes and three pots of lavender by the fishpond.

She later found a lychee tree and planted it by the fishpond, thinking it would provide some shade, but it hasn't blossomed yet.

Whenever Luo Ning needs to use it, she always feels that her terrace is not big enough.

She frowned in distress. There wasn't enough nectar for her little bees to collect. Would she still be able to eat pure, natural honey in the future?

Xiao Jie smiled when he saw her furrowed brows. "Don't worry, there aren't many bees yet. These flowers are enough for them to collect. Didn't you say you wanted to save that rapeseed field to make rapeseed oil?"

There's still plenty of space around the fishpond and chicken coop. Let's plant a couple more jujube and longan trees. That'll be enough for them to harvest later, and it'll also help pollinate the fruit trees, so they can have fruit to eat too."

Upon hearing Xiao Jie's words, Luo Ning's eyes lit up immediately. That's right, she had many fruit trees and flowers in her space, which she could squeeze in to place next to the fish pond and chicken coop.

The various vegetables, fruits, and flowers on the terrace are enough for these bees to collect.

She doesn't ask for much; she just wants seven or eight pounds of honey a year.

Without further ado, Xiao Jie went to find materials to make beehives, while Luo Ning, along with 123, organized the various flowers, plants, and fruit trees in the space, trying to ensure that there would be a source of nectar for her little bees all year round.
