Chapter 355: This honey is really precious!

Facing the confused look of the boy in front of her calmly, Xiang Lingying, who was only wearing underwear, said with a red face: "Let me help you rub off the dirt on your back!"

After saying that, without waiting for Zhang Liu to react, she picked up the clean curtain cloth next to the sink, dipped it in water, then wrapped it into a ball and rubbed it on.

Except for the situation where he went to Gu Qingrou's house to pet the dog and give it a bath, Xiang Lingying had no experience in back rubbing.

So she just moved the curtain in her hand up and down as if she was wiping glass.

But no matter what it is, the feeling of doing it yourself and having others help you are completely different.

Otherwise, the masters of a certain moderator website would not have developed a mysterious tutorial that says "Hold your palm in the air, relax your five fingers, and then rotate them hard to experience **".

The back cleaning process is very quick.

For Xiang Lingying, standing in the pool wearing only underwear to wash Zhang Liu's back was already an extreme behavior.

So when it was her turn, she simply gave up and leaned against the edge of the pool like a little quail.

Under the confused gaze of the man in front of her, Xiang Lingying pulled down the black pajamas next to her, and then said that she was going to wash her pajamas.

After taking a shower, Zhang Liu put on a sheepskin coat and bare his legs in his still damp underwear. He turned to Xiang Lingying, who was still washing her black pajamas, and said, "Then I'll go find Sister Wanying and the others first. I'll leave the things here to you."

"Besides dealing with the beehive, is there anything else you want me to do?" Putting down the black pajamas in her hand, Xiang Lingying climbed out from the edge of the pool, then she stood in front of Zhang Liu and asked in a low voice.

"Well, if you have time, why not grind the taro into a paste?" Zhang Liu scratched his head and said, "Grind it into a paste first, then put it in the sun to dry, that should be fine..."

He had the idea of ​​making taro flour with taro for a long time, but he was very busy recently and had no time to implement it.

Hearing Xiang Lingying asking for something to do, Zhang Liu entrusted it to him.

He just didn't know the overall production process.

So when I said it, there was a hint of uncertainty in my tone.

"Okay! Leave it to me!" Xiang Lingying nodded vigorously, with a serious expression of "I will do my best" on his face.

After saying goodbye to the girl behind him who was suddenly full of energy, Zhang Liu picked up a bottle of desert island version of "Nongfu Spring" and walked towards the shelter on the mountainside.

It was almost noon now. Although the sun had not yet reached its zenith, it had already begun to emit very hot rays. As it was heading southeast, he subconsciously squinted his eyes to block the rays.

Find time to make a hat...

While walking on the road, Zhang Liu drank water to replenish his energy while thinking about various things he needed to do and prioritizing them according to their urgency.

When he came to the shelter on the east side of the mountainside.

Xiang Wanying, Su Yan, Lan Yueting, and Gu Qingrou had already hidden under the ceiling.

Although the main purpose was to avoid the midday sun, their hands were not idle. At the moment, everyone was weaving fences that would be used to build the house later.

In the open space next to the shelter, there were more than forty three-meter-long, six-centimeter-thick bamboos with all branches and leaves cut off.

These are bamboos that meet the requirements for building a home.

In front of the girls was not a campfire, but the fruits that Xiang Wanying brought from the top of the mountain and the bamboo fungus picked in the bamboo forest.

Of course, there are also a lot of bamboo branches and woven square fences that are one meter wide and one meter long.

Seeing Zhang Liu coming over, Xiang Wanying and others immediately showed happy expressions.

After Su Yan and Lan Yueting looked at each other quietly, they moved their positions at the same time.

Seeing the two people's actions, Xiang Wanying deliberately ignored the eye contact with Gu Qingrou beside her.

She didn't want Zhang Liu to encounter a dilemma the first time he came over.

After moving the fence away and sitting under the shadow of the ceiling, Zhang Liu also sat in the middle of Lan Yueting and Su Yan in line with their expectations. He looked at the fences and bamboo trunks piled next to him and said with a smile, "Did you cut so many bamboos?"

"I guess there will be so many more in the afternoon." Xiang Wanying nodded, then picked up a ripe egg yolk fruit and handed it over, saying, "Are you here to build a house?"

"Well... to be precise, we need to clear the vacant land. Before we build our house, we must clear the vacant land here first." Zhang Liu took the egg yolk fruit and put it in his mouth. He stood up straight in the shelter and looked around. He said, "We can use these trees as workbenches or stools after we chop them down. We must clear the bamboos because they are sinks."

"Let's cut them down together later. How many three-meter-long bamboos are needed in total? Do you have an approximate number?" Su Yan stood beside Zhang Liu and looked at the thirteen trees outside that were about the same thickness as a girl's waist and said, "This project looks huge..."

"A three-meter-long bamboo. If a house for two people is three meters wide and six meters long, that would require nearly sixty pieces."

"There are nine of us in total. You girls will live together in pairs, and I, a boy, will live alone. That means there are five rooms."

"The preliminary estimate is that there are at least 300 of them. We'll cut them down as we go along. For now, we'll start with 120. I plan to build two houses first and then get all the stuff from the cave."

The alloy pot that is still in the cave is a good thing that Zhang Liu has always been thinking about.

However, the temperature is the hottest right now, so going out to cut trees or bamboos will definitely not be very efficient.

So he picked up some bamboo branches and crossed them vertically and horizontally and began to weave a fence.

During the conversation, Zhang Liu also reported to everyone the news that his plan to attack the hive had been successful.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Wanying, who had been mentally prepared for this, and the other four girls all showed anticipation on their faces.

On this deserted island, if you want to eat meat, you can do so with some effort.

But sweet food is really extremely precious, and it even depends on luck to get it.

Especially Gu Qingrou, Lan Yueting and Su Yan, who had tasted the sweetness of honeycomb honey.

The desire in his eyes at this moment could not be concealed in any way.

"Zhang Liu, what are you going to do with the honey? You can take it with you on the trip." Xiang Wanying also wanted to eat sweet food, but she also remembered Zhang Liu's plan to explore the map in the rainy season, so she whispered, "It would be a pity if we eat it all now."

After hearing Xiang Wanying's words, the expressions on the faces of the other three girls suddenly dimmed.

What the other party said was indeed right. If we eat honey, a precious long-lasting food, at this time when food is not in short supply, Zhang Liu might go hungry later. So everyone probably won't be able to eat to their satisfaction today...

Chapter 356: Do women need a reason to be jealous?

"Well, as for the honey, I plan to filter it into bamboo tubes first." After hearing Xiang Wanying's words, Zhang Liu stopped the compilation work that had been completed for the most part, and then looked at the four girls in front of him and said his distribution plan: "After squeezing the honeycomb completely dry, there should be several jars of honey. Then everyone can share a jar, and I will give one jar to Anya alone, okay?"

Without waiting for the girls to ask, Zhang Liu took the initiative to tell them the reason for doing so: "Today is her birthday, this is her birthday present."

"It's okay." Looking at the embarrassed look on the boy's face, Xiang Wanying pursed her lips to hold back the smile that was about to burst out, and then said, "Zhang Liu, you don't need to ask me about this matter, just decide directly."

"Yes, I also know Aya's birthday! Zhang Liu, you don't need to explain!" Su Yan put the finished fence in her hand aside, and then she nodded in agreement with Xiang Wanying's point of view.

Lan Yueting silently retracted her toes and said nothing.

But the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhang Liu was so gentle that it seemed as if water was about to drip out of it.

She is already looking forward to her birthday present.

"Yeah, yeah!" Similar to the other three people, Gu Qingrou also nodded vigorously in response, indicating that she had no objection to Zhang Liu's assignment.

"Okay." After hearing what everyone said, Zhang Liu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he continued to weave the fence carefully.

Time soon came to afternoon, as the sun gradually moved away from the central part.

The damp and stuffy feeling gradually replaced the original extreme heat.

Although it is still very hot to work at this time, it is not so hot that the body becomes weak...

After swallowing the last bite of fruit, Zhang Liu exchanged the fire hammer in his hand with the machete in Lan Yueting's hand, and then he began to deal with the bamboo that was more than 20 meters long and more than ten centimeters thick at the shelter on the mountainside.

While a man and four women began cutting bamboo.

Qin Ruoyan, Qin Ruoshuang and Anya also wandered around the area above the hillside.

At this moment, I am stopping in front of three papaya trees picking papayas.

While waiting for Anya to climb the fruit tree to pick the freshest fruits, Qin Ruoyan sat under the papaya tree next to her, and then she began to carefully record the various fruits that could be produced from it in her notebook.

"As for food, there are two egg yolk fruit trees, three banana trees, one tamarind tree, four bushes of red unknown fruit, eight papaya trees, and possibly sixteen mangosteen trees..."

Having written this, Qin Ruoyan turned her head to look at her sister who was eating fresh papaya and asked, "Ruoshuang, what birthday gift do you think Zhang Liu will prepare for Anya?"

"Ok?"

With a piece of papaya in her mouth, Qin Ruoshuang hesitated for a few seconds, then shook her head to indicate that she had no idea.

"I feel it's very likely to be honey, because he said a long time ago that he was going to get that beehive!" Qin Ruoyan picked up the papaya that Anya had picked from the ground, peeled it with a knife, and then cut out a piece of flesh and put it in her mouth. She chewed and stammered, "Well... if it's honey... I don't really want Zhang Liu to give Anya too much alone..."

Qin Ruoyan is a girl, and a smart one.

So even if she is jealous, she will find a suitable reason for herself.

Although it is still unknown whether Zhang Liu went to collect honey, women never need a reason to be jealous, they only need imagination.

At this moment, what Qin Ruoyan wanted to express through this private complaint with her sister was that she was not jealous.

It was because she took into account the shelf life of honey and the long journey that Zhang Liu would have to make later, so she felt it was not suitable.

However, Qin Ruoyan's idea was not really random, because recently the air would become sultry every afternoon near dusk.

This was a marked difference from the feeling of the crisp yet hot air when she had first encountered the danger.

Although Qin Ruoyan didn't understand the climate.

But she also roughly understood that the emergence of this situation was closely related to the upcoming rainy season.

So I am definitely not jealous without any purpose!

Qin Ruoyan raised her head and looked at her sister who was still eating melons in front of her. She looked serious.

Qin Ruoshuang tilted her head and looked at her sister in front of her, trying hard to suppress her contemptuous behavior, and then remained silent without saying a word.

As the younger sister, she cannot compare with the other party in playing tricks and schemes.

But perhaps it was because of the blood relationship, Qin Ruoshuang could easily tell whether her sister was pretending to be serious or was really serious when she spoke.

So she didn't ask why.

Instead, they directly regard the other person's words as just jealous remarks.

But after a few seconds of silence, Qin Ruoshuang still whispered: "Sister! Didn't Zhang Liu also prepare birthday gifts for us, so we don't need to care about Anya's things."

"It's different! Bird eggs are not suitable for taking away and storing, so of course you can use them all. Honey is suitable for storage, so you shouldn't give too much!"

Hearing the meaning of her sister's persuasion, Qin Ruoyan felt guilty and a bit of anxiety suddenly appeared on her face.

Clearing her throat, she quickly said the excuse she had already thought of in her mind.

But under Qin Ruoshuang's strange gaze, Qin Ruoyan began to defend herself in a low voice: "And I'm not saying that Zhang Liu shouldn't give Anya honey. After all, everyone will definitely eat it later...but not too much...the same goes for our eggs..."

Because she felt guilty, her voice became lower and lower.

Qin Ruoshuang's expression became more and more helpless. At present, she didn't even know whether Zhang Liu had gone to get the honey. Why did her sister start to suspect and make arrangements...

When the girl in red sportswear on the papaya tree next to her slipped down.

The two sisters stopped talking about this.

Anya's hand was wrapped in curtain cloth and contained six or seven fully ripe papayas. She was in high spirits at the moment because of her good harvest.

Qin Ruoshuang secretly glanced at Qin Ruoyan in front of her, and then tried hard to suppress the urge to curl up the corners of her mouth and burst into laughter.

She suddenly discovered that the usually frank person actually had many small entanglements on the issue of Zhang Liu. This time, she even pretended not to be jealous and made excuses hoping that Zhang Liu would not give classmate Anya too many birthday gifts...

This is completely different from the sister I know.

You have to know that in Qin Ruoshuang's heart, her sister is a straightforward person, but she also does things like "using unconventional methods to solve problems."

It is precisely because of this character of "being both civil and martial, able to be frank and also to act behind the scenes" that elder sister Qin Ruoyan is considered by the older generations of the Qin family to be more suitable to be the head of the family than younger sister Qin Ruoshuang.

But at the moment, apart from quietly complaining about what might happen next, her sister didn't take any other substantial actions, which made Qin Ruoshuang, her younger sister, feel extremely fresh...

Chapter 357 If both sisters cannot be satisfied, then it’s all over…

“Hehehe!” Kicking away the naturally ripe papaya that was already somewhat rotten on the ground, Anya looked at the two sisters in front of her who were looking at her with a smug smile on her face: “Isn’t it amazing that I can climb trees?”

"It's really amazing." Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang both highly recognized Anya's ability to climb trees.

The two of them tried for a long time, but they could only hold their bodies stiffly on the tree trunk and were unable to climb up.

While Qin Ruoyan recognized Anya's skills, there was also a hint of guilt in her eyes when she looked at her.

She knew that her behavior of not even knowing whether there was honey or not, but already being jealous of Anya for getting more, was really unbearable...

His expression remained unchanged, but he sighed sadly in his heart.

Qin Ruoyan found that her heart seemed to be getting smaller and smaller...
