From the end of the world to the beast world, she won
Chapter 11 Red Fruit Stew
Su Yu in the dream had just received the university admission notice.
As soon as she received the college admission notice, she excitedly called her parents and wanted to share her joy with them.
But unfortunately, both her father and mother's first reaction after hearing that she was admitted was to tell her that she had no money and ask her to go to the other party to ask for tuition...
In fact, she had no intention of asking them for tuition fees, because she had already turned eighteen before the college entrance examination results came out, and she started her summer job the day after her eighteenth birthday.
Moreover, she would find a way to save some of the 600 yuan they gave her for monthly living expenses. In 8 years, she had saved nearly yuan!
Moreover, loans are available for college. She has already agreed with her grandparents that if she is admitted to college, she will apply for a student loan, and she will pay it back slowly after graduation.
But before she could say any of this, her parents hung up the phone for fear that she would ask for money.
It was impossible to say that she was not sad. She hid in the bamboo forest behind the house and cried for a long time. When she came home, her eyes were still red.
When her grandma asked her what was wrong, she only said that she had received the college notice and was so happy that she couldn't help crying.
In the days that followed, Su Yu went to and from town every day to work during the summer vacation. Until August 8, she quit her job after receiving her second month's salary of 8 yuan.
In the days that followed, she stayed at home to harvest rice with her grandparents, and took the time to prepare things needed for new students' registration.
However, before she could set off for the north, the rice had just been harvested and had not yet been dried and stored in the warehouse, the apocalypse had begun.
Su Yu was frightened awake by the sudden appearance of a mutated (zombie) animal in front of her. When she woke up, she found that she was actually in a cave, with weak morning light shining in at the entrance of the cave.
Su Yu took a long breath and took two minutes to recover from her dream.
Touching the earring on her left ear, Su Yu told herself that no matter where she is, she must live well, because only by living can she be worthy of her grandparents who risked their lives to save her.
Now that she was awake, Su Yu didn't plan to sleep anymore and walked out of the cave to prepare breakfast.
Before going to bed last night, Su Yu asked Xia Na to build a simple stove for her at the entrance of the cave, and the stone pot was already placed on it.
Su Yu carefully went to the inner cave and cut some meat from the tiger beast. When he returned to the entrance of the cave, he simply scrubbed the stone pot and then lit a fire to cook it.
Because she didn't know the heat conduction of the stone pot, Su Yu didn't use a big fire and used her hands to feel the temperature in the pot from time to time.
When the stone pot reached the right temperature, she threw the fat meat she had prepared in advance into the pot, then held the meat with chopsticks and spread it all over the pot.
This is boiling pot, which grandma taught her.
After turning on the pot, Su Yu started to make breakfast.
Add water to the pot and firewood to the stove, then free your hands and use a knife to cut the meat into pieces the size of a baby's fist, put them in the pot and blanch them.
After blanching, wash the pot and change the water, put the meat back into the pot and cover it with the lid.
After adding more firewood to the stove, Su Yu returned to the cave, washed a dozen red fruits that she brought back yesterday, cut them into pieces, and after the pot boiled for about ten minutes, she threw them all into the pot.
The lid of the stone pot was no longer covered, and the boiling soup steamed with heat, driving the aroma of meat and red fruits into the cave. The aroma was so fragrant that Xana suddenly opened her eyes while sleeping.
"Whoosh" jumped out of bed, walked to Su Yu's side in a few steps, and looked at the food rolling in the stone pot with bright eyes.
"What is this? Why does it smell so good?" Xia Na stood beside Su Yu, looked at the fire in the stove, then at the meat in the stone pot, and slowly took a step forward. He stood beside Su Yu.
"Red fruit stew, but you have to wait for a while until the meat is soft and tender before it tastes delicious." Thinking of something, he added: "It's a pity that there is no salt and other seasonings, otherwise it would be more delicious."
After saying that, Su Yu added some more firewood to the stove, and then suddenly thought of something, Su Yu turned around and entered the cave.
"Xia Na, please come in." After a moment, Su Yu called from the cave. Xia Na looked at the meat in the pot reluctantly, turned around and entered the cave.
"We need a dining table. The knife is a bit slow, so I have to work hard for you." Su Yu pointed to the wooden boards on the ground. They were of different lengths, but Su Yu had arranged them in order of long in the middle and short on both sides.
After briefly telling Xia Na her request, Su Yu stood aside to make room for Xia Na.
Xia Na was still thinking about the meat in the pot, and the aroma always penetrated his nose intentionally or unintentionally, which made the glutton in his stomach very excited, so his movements were a little faster.
Within a moment, a round tabletop was formed under Xia Na's hands. Xia Na followed Su Yu's instructions and completed a table frame in twos and twos. Once assembled, a table was completed.
Su Yu looked at Xia Na with admiration and decided to serve him more stew later!
Su Yu turned around to get the dishes and chopsticks made yesterday, and then she saw the "guava" as big as her face.
After cleaning the bowls and chopsticks and placing them on the chopping board next to the stove, and letting Xia Na watch the fire, Su Yu returned to the cave and took out the "guava".
"Xia Na, what kind of fruit is this? Can it be eaten?" Su Yu handed the "guava" to Xia Na.
After hearing this, Xia Na, whose eyes were full of stewed meat, took a moment to look at the fruit and said with disgust: "This is a bitter fruit. A small bite will fill your mouth with a bitter taste, and you will be very thirsty all day long! So you can throw this thing away. Lost."
As he said that, he turned his attention to the stew again, and after a moment he said anxiously: "Su Yu, when will this stew be ready?"
Su Yu was frowning at this time, recalling Xia Na's words, "It's bitter and makes you thirsty." Su Yu always felt that this situation was a bit familiar, but for a while, she didn't remember when she had encountered it.
When Xia Na asked, she looked at the meat in the pot, picked up a pair of chopsticks, and inserted it into the meat. Although the heat was still a little low, it was still edible.
Knowing that Xia Na was greedy, he picked up the largest bowl, scooped out a large bowl with a large spoon, and handed it to Xia Na: "Here, bring it to the table!"
Immediately, he picked up a smaller bowl and planned to serve himself a bowl.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Su Yu put down the things in his hands, cut off a small piece of the bitter fruit placed aside with a knife, and threw it into his mouth.
"Well, it's so bitter!" Su Yu stuck out her tongue, but her eyes were so bright!
After rinsing her mouth with water, Su Yu grinned, cut some pulp from the bitter fruit, sliced it, threw it into the pot, and stirred it with a large spoon.
Su Yu took a sip of soup with a spoon, put it in the bowl and drank it in one gulp. So fresh! So delicious! Sure enough, you still have to add salt!
That's right, that bitter fruit is actually the salt of the Beast World, the salt that grows on trees!
Dear readers, Happy New Year 2024~ I wish everyone all the best in the new year!
