When Su Yue noticed Li Hui's look, she knew that the casing was torn again.

She smiled and said, "It's okay, Aunt Song. This job is not easy to do. It's normal to break at the beginning. There are plenty of casings here."

After hearing this, Li Hui smiled embarrassedly. At the same time, the tension in her heart dissipated a little and she cheered up again.

The women continued to work, and soon, strings of sausages were ready and hung in a ventilated place together with the bacon.

As for how much was made, the patio was full of them drying in the sun. Looking at it not only gave people a sense of accomplishment, but also a strong sense of the New Year.

To prevent the food from being too greasy, Su Yue asked Ye Mei, who was skilled in cooking, to make more pickled vegetables.

Ye Mei washes and dries the cabbage and radish, then puts them into the marinade made with salt, vinegar, and cornel.

Su Yue felt that these two pickled vegetables were too monotonous and easy to get tired of, so she secretly went to the warehouse and put a sack of garlic.

Then he asked Jindong to go to the warehouse in front of the women and take out a sack of garlic for the women to make pickled garlic.

Aunt Yang smiled and said, "It's Chinese New Year, so we should eat more variety. Sugared garlic is sweet and sour, and it's delicious when paired with bacon and sausage. It's very refreshing."

That being said, the women were reluctant to use a sack of garlic to make pickled garlic. They felt that even if they made two sacks, they would not be enough for the men to make.

Li Hui suggested: "Girl, why don't we save half of the garlic for seeds? It would be nice to grow some garlic sprouts or garlic moss to eat."

Chen Dafeng loves eating garlic shoots, and she immediately agreed: "I think it's okay. Garlic shoots fried with bacon are delicious with rice." As she said this, she looked at Su Yue eagerly.

Su Yue smiled. It was just garlic shoots. She still had more than twenty bags of garlic in her space.

"There are not only a lot of people in our building, but everyone has a big appetite. This bag of pickled garlic is not enough for everyone to eat.

So don't divide it in half, pickle it all, and I'll ask Honeysuckle to bring you a sack later, and you can plant it however you want."

The ladies were all surprised when they heard Su Yue's words. Li Hui smiled and said, "Thank you, young lady. You are so generous. With these garlics, we can eat for a long time."

Liu Cui also spoke up: "Big sister, since you have to go to the warehouse anyway, please help me carry a bag of flour. I plan to make some dumplings and freeze them for the New Year."

Su Yue nodded when she heard this: "That's right, even if we don't have anything, we can still have dumplings."

Seeing that Su Yue agreed with her, Liu Cui said happily: "Miss, what flavor do you like? I'll make some more."

"Chives and meat filling." Su Yue replied.

At this time, Ren Dong also said bluntly: "Sister Cui, my nanny and I both like pork and green onions, so you should make more."

Liu Cui glanced at the expressions of Su Yue and Nanny Yang, and saw that they only had doting smiles on their faces. She then breathed a sigh of relief. This girl was really getting more and more bold because of being spoiled. However, it was good that the girl was not angry.

Liu Cui thought about it but still responded, "Okay, got it."

Su Yue went to the warehouse again and put in two sacks of garlic, and then some peanuts, chestnuts, and yams.

She asked Rendong to hand it over to Liu Cui, saying that she should make more cakes and pastries so that the greedy girls and children in the tower could happily satisfy their appetites.

When Liu Cui saw these ingredients, her eyes lit up. "That's great! With these, I can make a lot of different dishes!"

She began to plan happily whether to make sweet peanut cake, soft and glutinous chestnut cake, or make yam into yam cake.

But there is no rush for these. The pastries can be made the day before the Chinese New Year. That way they will still be fresh and delicious.

Now I need to finish the tasks at hand and prepare to make dumplings, then freeze them and store them so that I can eat them anytime.

The women have already started to process the garlic busily, peeling off the skin and leaving only the clean white cloves.

Chen Dafeng helped prepare the juice for the pickled garlic. According to Ye Mei's instructions, just mix white sugar, white vinegar, salt and an appropriate amount of water.

Just as everyone was putting garlic cloves into the jar and pouring in the prepared juice, a greedy cat smelled the sweet and sour taste and couldn't resist.

Zhong Tie's youngest son stretched out his hand to grab the garlic cloves, but Zhong Tie's wife gently patted his hand and said, "Little greedy cat, this is not ready yet. You will have something to eat when it is ready."

The little kid was not afraid of being caught. Instead, he stuck out his tongue, turned around and ran away.

After all the garlic cloves were packed and the jar was sealed with water, Ye Mei reminded: "This pickled garlic needs to be kept for a while, and then eaten during the Chinese New Year, so that the taste will be authentic."

At this time, the men also finished a day's work of killing zombies and returned to the tower. As soon as they entered the door, they were attracted by the fragrance in the yard. When they saw the bacon and sausages hanging, they were shocked at first, and then they were filled with happiness.

"Huh? This smell... is there pickled garlic?" Song Da sniffed and asked with sparkling eyes.

In addition to the spicy smell of cured meat, the air is also mixed with a special garlic and sweet and sour taste.

The maid who opened the door for the men smiled and said, "Yes, the young lady asked us to make a lot of pickled garlic, saying that it would be a good way to eat it during the New Year to get rid of the greasiness of bacon and sausage."

Song Da couldn't help smacking his lips when he heard this. "The girl is really thoughtful. Eating this pickled garlic with meat is so delicious."

Just as Song Mingtao, Liu Shan and others were about to go to the patio to take a look at the bacon and sausages, they were stopped by several women who had come over specially.

It’s still the same excuse: Oh, you stink so much, you either smell like shit or corpse, you’d better go wash up quickly, or you’ll ruin these delicious sausages and bacon.

After hearing this, Song Mingtao, Liu Shan and others scratched their heads embarrassedly, then laughed and walked towards the bathing area.

As they walked, they looked back at the yard full of New Year's goods, their eyes full of anticipation. Although the world outside was extremely bad and difficult, it seemed that they could still have a good year this year.

The next day, when Su Yue was still sleeping comfortably in bed, the people in the building had already woken up early.

Liu Cui and the other women continued to make breakfast, while the maids were only responsible for cleaning the snow on the tower.

After breakfast, the men loaded up their bombs and arrows and set out again. Originally, they would set out once every two or three days, but now they would set out almost every day.

And they didn't need many people to go, just enough to operate the cannon, and the rest could stay to help make bombs and arrows.

The men are not doing this to eliminate all the zombies in the world, they don't have such great ambitions.

They just wanted to clear out the zombies in the river not far from the tower, so that their tower would not be threatened by so many zombies next spring.

Before Song Mingtao left, he went to see Doctor Wu and asked him to make more frostbite ointment.

The weather was too cold, and it was inconvenient to wear gloves when operating cannons and crossbows, so every man had more or less frostbite on his hands.
