I became a farmer in the apocalypse.

While Jiang Li was still worrying, Jiang Yan came in excitedly from outside.

"Sis! The chicken laid an egg!"

Jiang Li's dejection vanished instantly, and she perked up immediately.

"Really?"

"Really." Jiang Yan was holding a chicken coop in his hand.

The chicken coop was made by him using dry grass before he went to bed last night.

There was an egg lying inside.

Jiang Li took out the eggs.

It's still warm.

"Let's put the chicken coop back. We'll have bracken stir-fried with eggs for lunch today."

"Okay!"

Jiang Yan returned the chicken coop, but when the chickens saw that the coop was back but the eggs were not, they got so angry that they flew up and squawked at Jiang Yan in a shrill voice.

Jiang Yan ignored it and took the eggs it laid to cook.

Stir-fried bracken with eggs has a unique flavor. The bracken is crisp and delicious, with a unique wild fragrance, while the eggs are fluffy and tender.

"Sis, eat more eggs."

There was only one egg, and Jiang Yan was reluctant to eat it. He specially fried a large piece and gave it all to Jiang Li, while he ate the vegetables voraciously himself.

"Yo!"

Li Lan's hearty laughter came from outside, "You've already started eating?"

"Aunt Li, what brings you here?"

Li Lan said with a smile, "The hen I brought back yesterday has laid an egg too!"

The Li family had been reluctant to eat the three chickens. They exchanged one for points, and planned to keep the male and female chickens to lay eggs.

She came specifically to share this good news with Jiang Li, and also to see if Jiang Li's hen had laid any eggs. Unexpectedly, the eggs had already gone into Jiang Li's stomach.

This girl is surprisingly fast.

"Oh, right, this is something my husband asked me to bring to you."

Li Lan took out a stack of wooden bowls, several pairs of wooden chopsticks, and a few wooden spoons.

"My husband made this himself when he was bored. Look how beautiful this little wooden bowl is! I'm sure you'll love it!"

A perfect set of natural wood tableware!

"Thank you, Aunt Li!"

Li Lan waved her hand, "This is nothing. Anyway, Hongjun likes to tinker with these things when he has nothing to do. They're just sitting there piled up anyway, so they're perfect for you to use."

Jiang Li knew that Ye Hongjun had a woodworking lathe, jigsaw, electric drill, and so on. With a complete set of equipment, he could indeed make quite a few things.

"By the way, Jiang, we're going out to find resources again tomorrow, are you coming?"

Jiang Li saw the message in the group chat, saying that those who wanted to go tomorrow should spontaneously meet at bus stop number 13.

But tomorrow we're going to a different place at the foot of the mountain, a completely different place from the one we visited before.

It seems Chen Feng isn't going this time.

"Why isn't Captain Chen going?" Jiang Li asked.

Li Lan: "Chen Feng is the main breadwinner of the family; he's the one who does all the work in the fields. How can he go out every day?"

Going to the mountains to find resources is a matter of luck; if you're unlucky, it's better to work in the fields! At least the vegetables you plant in the fields will actually grow!

After listening to Li Lan's words, Jiang Li seemed to be deep in thought.

She's definitely going; for her right now, going out to hunt is more cost-effective than staying in the fields to farm.

"Aunt Li, please take me with you when you leave tomorrow."

"OK."

After Li Lan left, Jiang Yan raised his hand and said, "Sister, I also want to go dig for wild vegetables."

"no."

Why?

"You have to stay and watch the house."

The most valuable things in the house are the two chickens.

Both of them went out, and the chickens were left unattended. What if they got stolen?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan had no choice but to give up. "Alright, then I'll stay and farm."

Jiang Li gave him a general overview of the vegetable garden plan and asked Jiang Yan to be responsible for tidying up the vegetable garden tomorrow.

The next day at six o'clock sharp, Li Lan knocked on the door.

Before she set off, Jiang Yan handed her a few wild vegetable rice balls, wrapped in leaves.

The blanched wild vegetables are then stir-fried with minced garlic and soy sauce. This method results in rice balls that are full of soy sauce flavor, with a very rich taste that is anything but bland.

With this, I won't go hungry at noon.

Arriving at the same bus stop, the number of people this time was half that of last time.

Last time there were twenty or thirty people, but this time there were only fourteen or fifteen, and a few new faces were added.

"Is this the wild vegetable she found in the mountains last time, weighing over thirty kilograms?"

Su Wenhu stood next to Su Xiao, staring at Jiang Li with an unfriendly gaze.

Su Xiao nodded.

Su Wenhu scoffed and turned his head away.

The time had come, and Su Xiao spoke first: "No one will be coming anymore, let's go."

Jiang Li learned from Li Lan that the place they were going to was at the foot of a mountain with a stream and large forests on both sides of the stream, where there was a high chance of finding wild vegetables.

Upon arrival at their destination, everyone spontaneously dispersed to search for wild vegetables, not venturing too far, and able to call for help if in danger.

Within minutes, Su Xiao discovered a patch of shepherd's purse!

If you find a patch of wild vegetables on your own, you should call on others to come and dig some up, and the person who found it should get the lion's share.

We're all part of the same team. Being too selfish will lead to gossip. When faced with a mutated beast attack, you can't rely on yourself alone. If you find something today and let others collect some, you can also benefit from it tomorrow. In reality, no one loses out.

Thinking of Jiang Li's unparalleled glory the day before yesterday, Su Xiao's lips curled into a cold smile.

Of course we're going to make a big deal out of this!

She hurriedly ran back to call for help:

"Everyone come quick! I've found a clump of shepherd's purse!"

"..."

Those who heard the sound immediately put down what they were doing.

"Shepherd's purse clusters?!"

How many?

Su Xiao: "Wow, that's a huge piece! Come on, everyone, have some!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became excited!

"Su Xiao discovered wild vegetable skirts!"

"Everyone, hurry up and share some!"

The news spread quickly, and everyone who heard it rushed to Su Xiao's location, fearing that if they were late, they would miss out.

After Su Xiao released the news, she had already been picking for a long time, and her basket was full of shepherd's purse that had been picked and tested.

Su Wenhu followed behind Su Xiao and picked quite a lot, excitedly throwing them into his basket. "They're so dense and growing so well! I bet we have over thirty pounds of edible ones! We've made a fortune!"

"Sister Jiang, let's go too!"

Li Lan excitedly dragged Jiang Li along and ran in that direction.

When Jiang Li heard the word "shepherd's purse," the first thing that came to mind was shepherd's purse dumplings.

If we could use some flour and dig up some shepherd's purse, we could have shepherd's purse dumplings for dinner!

When we arrived, many people were already bending over to pick and test the fruit.

The scene was lively and bustling, with smiles on everyone's faces.

"Thanks to Su Xiao! We get to eat shepherd's purse dumplings today!"

"Su Xiao is really lucky today."

"Su Xiao, Jiang Li is here too."

Someone said this.

Su Xiao's hand stopped immediately, and her expression changed drastically.

She stood up, looked at Jiang Li, and said with a forced smile, "Jiang Li, what brings you here? You're here to join in the fun with my twenty or thirty pounds of wild vegetables? Didn't you get quite a lot of resources the day before yesterday? There's no need to fight with everyone for this little bit of meat, is there?"

Although Su Xiao said it in a half-joking tone, everyone noticed that there was something wrong with what he meant.

This means... it seems like they don't want Jiang Li to share?

Wang Guihua glared at the two of them. "Su Xiao is right! You two got so many good things the day before yesterday, and you still weren't satisfied, so you came to join in the fun! How can you be so greedy?"

"That's right, you're new here! Don't you dare get involved! Go somewhere cool and stay out there!"

Su Wenhu stood with his hands on his hips, looking smug.
