Liu Xuechang asked around and finally found out where Gu Tongwan lived. When he saw her, he smiled and handed her a basket.

"My wife said she must give you some. Thanks to your transfer last time, my wife and children were out of danger."

After Liu Xuechang finished speaking, he tightened the collar of his cotton coat again, stuffed the basket into Gu Tongwan's hand, and left in a hurry. He didn't plan to chat for too long, as he had to hurry to the back mountain to chop firewood. The recent temperature required a lot of firewood and charcoal to maintain the warmth of the house. Not only him, but basically everyone in the village went out.

Gu Tongwan lifted the white cloth covering the basket, and inside was actually candied haws. The hawthorns wrapped in crystal clear soup looked tempting.

Gu Tongwan smiled, picked up a bunch and took a bite. The sweetness spread throughout his mouth. The hawthorn might have been stored in the cellar for a while, so the flesh was a little shriveled, but it was still very sweet and sour.

Gu Tongwan placed the remaining hawthorns in the kitchen. She planned to build a simple earthen kiln in the yard later, mainly to try to make charcoal herself.

A few days ago, in the back mountain, in addition to looking for various medicinal plants, she also chopped firewood.

At present, there are about a thousand kilograms of firewood in the space, and if you plan to make charcoal, there will be about three or four hundred kilograms. She has seen a method of making charcoal in the countryside before, which is considered the simplest one. After digging a simple earthen kiln, use an iron bucket to put the cut branches of similar lengths in it, and then cover the iron bucket with a lid. Finally, poke a few holes in the lid for exhaust vents, and then place the iron pipe on the simple earthen kiln, add firewood inside and burn it for about five to six hours, so that you can get a complete bucket of charcoal.

Although the firing time is a little longer, at least we can harvest two barrels every day.

At night, Gu Tongwan took out a thick mattress and placed it on the Simmons mattress. She also laid a layer of lambskin electric blanket on top of it. It had automatic constant temperature. She set it to automatically cut off the power after eight hours. Anyway, she usually went to bed at 10:30 at night and got up before 7:00 in the morning, so this time was just enough to save the trouble of setting an alarm clock.

After installing a fireplace in the house, she put away the vertical air conditioner. After all, this thing consumes a lot of electricity. In the past two days, she had to start the generator, so she used up a bucket of diesel, which made her feel a little painful.

I also took out a soft down quilt so I wouldn't feel cold when sleeping at night.

At present, the temperature in the living room is maintained at around minus 2 degrees Celsius, and the bedroom is around four or five degrees Celsius. This temperature is already very good, at least not like other people's homes where even the indoor temperature is around minus ten degrees Celsius.

In the evening, I took out the Haidilao takeout hot pot, which was also a small gas stove with a one-person pot.

The hot pot base is made of beef oil. Stir-fry the base with ginger and garlic, pour in warm water, and then take out the matching dishes.

There are pork belly, beef, beef tripe, luncheon meat, bean curd sheets, frozen tofu and bok choy, and then there are onions, ginger, garlic, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sesame paste and other ingredients.

There was a "gurgling" sound coming from the small pot in the room. Gu Tongwan put one-third of the meat in, scooped up a big mouthful of beef, dipped it in the Zhanjiang sauce she had prepared herself, and took a bite. Her mouth was full of salty, fresh, spicy and hot flavors, and her whole body was filled with warmth.

Aoao and Tutu next to her were not very interested in hotpot. They sat on the side and watched her eat with their eyelids raised, looking very touched.

She took out a bottle of room-temperature soda and cut some lemon into it. Compared with ordinary cola, it had more lemon fragrance and sourness, but it was more refreshing and delicious, especially after eating a bite of spicy hot pot and then drinking a sip of cola. This little life was so comfortable.

The amount of the small hot pot for one person is actually a bit too full for one person. She felt so full after eating less than half of it. She put the unfinished food away, went to the bathroom, boiled a bucket of hot water, and tried to rinse her body.

The main reason why she did not avoid the space wash was that she also wanted to let her body adapt to this temperature a little. She could not rely on space all her life. Moreover, what humans need to do under natural disasters is to constantly adapt to the environment, just like those mutated animals. Perhaps this can stimulate human potential to a certain extent.

Those famous base self-defense forces and mercenary corps in the previous life might be the few humans who adapted to or defeated the natural disaster environment in advance.

In the absence of a bathroom heater, you can only grit your teeth and take a shower. When everything is stable when you enter the space, you must install a bathroom heater in the house when extreme cold comes!
