Lan Yueting, who has a relatively weak psychological endurance, has even begun to have pessimistic thoughts such as "Will I be in trouble for the rest of my life and never be able to escape?"

Compared to Zhang Liu, who was thinking about what he was going to do at night and was unaware of the situation around him.

Xiang Wanying accurately noticed that the expression of the eldest lady beside her seemed a little depressed and helpless.

Although she didn't know why, she immediately started thinking of a solution.

The best solution right now should naturally fall on a boy.

"Zhang Liu... I think you just told the young lady that you want to use beeswax to make candles, right?" Xiang Wanying smiled and broke the silence, and gave a hint to Zhang Liu who was frowning and thinking.

"Um... yes, I'm wondering whether to make lard first or candles." Touching his chin, Zhang Liu's face was full of hesitation: "I always feel that these two things are equally important."

His words also successfully attracted the girls' attention.

Since there were two options, everyone started discussing.

If lard is consumed before dinner, the delicious byproduct of lard residue may be very competitive.

But now everyone has had enough meat and drinks, so candles that can provide lighting are highly recommended.

After the voting was completed, Zhang Liu began to try to make the first candle.

First, put the beeswax chewed by the girls into a cylindrical bamboo tube, and then fill a small clay basin with water.

The last step is to soak the cylindrical bamboo tube in it and wait for it to heat up.

Thanks to the fact that the aristocratic girls' high school actually had chemistry experiments, he, who had taken chemistry classes, successfully applied the water bath heating method.

The water in the small clay basin quickly began to boil, and first brought the heat to the fingers on the bamboo tube.

The beeswax hadn't melted yet, but Zhang Liu could no longer hold it.

In desperation, he had to use two thin branches to hold down the bamboo tube to prevent it from tipping over.

Seeing Zhang Liu's actions, the other girls slowly moved their eyes over, full of curiosity and anticipation.

The yellow-white beeswax gradually shows signs of melting.

After about a few minutes, they finally turned into a pool of liquid.

Chapter 361: Lard residue is definitely a good thing!

Looking at these things in front of him, Zhang Liu was secretly happy. If he was not mistaken, this stuff should theoretically be considered beeswax.

He first carefully took the bamboo tube out of the small clay basin and placed it aside, then cut a long strip of curtain cloth, rolled it into strips and pressed it into the beeswax.

In Zhang Liu's opinion, this strip of curtain cloth should play a role similar to that of a candle wick.

In order to speed up the solidification, he also placed the bamboo tube in cold water to help cool it down.

Afterwards, Zhang Liu was once again taken care of by Xiang Wanying, and then waited for the girls to take a shower.

With a smile on her lips, the head maid of the Xiang family in front of him had an expression that said, "Little guy, you've fallen into my hands again."

However, Zhang Liu did not have time to interact with the other party at this moment.

Because after making the candles, he was boiling lard.

There was no lard on the little wild boar, but a lot of fat was cut from the belly of the big wild boar.

After being in the water for two days, these fat pieces have become slightly "mushy" and "slippery".

Although I don’t know what the situation is.

But in order to extend the shelf life, Zhang Liu naturally had to cut them into small pieces and then put them in a small clay pot to boil lard.

Generally speaking, lard has a shelf life of two to three months.

He thought that this period should be enough for him to explore the entire island.

However, in order to make lard, Zhang Liu did not sit inside the shelter, but sat next to the earthen stove with his back to the girls who were taking a bath.

The fact that Xiang Wanying is so well-behaved is closely related to this point.

Now that the eldest lady can see herself directly, these head maids of the Xiang family naturally dare not do anything bold.

She was a little disappointed about this. She had originally planned to teach a lesson to that stinky man who did not accept her confession last night!

When wild boar oil is boiled, it has a smell that is completely different from domestic pig lard. Zhang Liu believes that this smell can probably be called a foul smell.

In order to remove the smell, he also put a lot of large grains of black pepper into a small clay pot.

As a result, this operation created a scent similar to that of boiled pork slices near the shelter.

Xiang Wanying was sitting next to them and also swallowed twice. The smell was really stimulating to the taste buds.

Even if it’s just after dinner, you will still feel hungry.

"Sister Wanying, you can try this lard." Seeing that she was swallowing her saliva quietly, Zhang Liu handed a piece of lard to the head maid in front of him, who continued to look after her seriously after swallowing her saliva, and then said with a smile: "I remember when I was a child, my mother would give me this every New Year."

As he spoke, his tone became somewhat cheerful: "But I was young at that time, and my memory was still poor. I would always share the extra lard residue with my two sisters, and secretly keep a piece for myself to eat. As a result, I didn't know where I put it after a while..."

Xiang Wanying didn't say anything, but silently reached out to take the small piece of golden chocolate that Zhang Liu handed over.

Since it has had time to cool down before being handed over, its temperature is not very high and can be touched directly with your fingers.

Holding it in her hand and pressing it lightly, Xiang Wanying felt a little mixed in her heart as she listened to the story told by Zhang Liu.

It wasn't because she felt pity for the boy in front of her, but the first time she ate lard residue was when she had just arrived at the Xiang family. She was assigned to the kitchen for internship and was in the most helpless stage.

A chef aunt smiled and scooped out two pieces of lard residue from the seasoning pot and handed it over.

And said this is a very rare good thing...

Xiang Wanying did not think that lard residue was the most delicious or precious food in the world.

But she did remember the taste.

I didn't expect that after being in danger on a deserted island, I would be able to eat this thing again, and just like the boy in front of me, it has a story behind it.

After looking at Zhang Liu with complicated eyes, Xiang Wanying put the lard residue between her fingertips into her mouth.

A smell of oiliness and fragrance filled her mouth.

It was lightly chewed, probably because Zhang Liu's cooking skills were not good and he couldn't guarantee the perfect cooking time.

So the taste that this piece of lard residue gave Xiang Wanying was not a crunchy texture, but a crispy outside and tender inside taste.

And because it contains a certain amount of black pepper, it tastes a bit like the fatty part of crispy pork.

"It tastes very good." Xiang Wanying nodded slightly, acknowledging the taste of the lard in front of her.

At the same time, she was also ready to cross out the fact that "the other party did not respond to my confession immediately" from her little notebook in her heart.

"Hehehe, we will eat lard and taro paste tomorrow morning!" Zhang Liu carefully scooped up the second batch of lard with chopsticks. Thinking of the delicious food he could eat the next day, a happy smile immediately appeared on his face.

"You are always so optimistic." Looking at the boy in front of her, Xiang Wanying couldn't help but smile and said, "Just now everyone else was depressed, but you were still foolishly thinking about whether lard or candles were better."

"Well?"

Zhang Liu stared blankly at the head maid in front of him, feeling a little confused for a moment.

Were the other girls depressed just now?

What are they depressed about?

Are you depressed because you don’t have pig brains to eat?

But aren’t people told not to eat pig brains? That’s why I eat it alone at night?

"Forget it, forget it." Looking at Zhang Liu's expression, Xiang Wanying suddenly felt helpless.

But then she asked, "I guess they are homesick. Zhang Liu, don't you miss home staying here?"

The hand holding the lard trembled slightly. Zhang Liu was silent for a few seconds before speaking: "If I say I don't want to, I'm lying. But it's useless to think about it. It's better to do it step by step. I want to make this candle for lighting in the future when I go out to sea."

As he said this, he also started joking: "We can't have to light a fire for a long time on the wooden ship when we go out to sea..."

"Ok?"

After hearing Zhang Liu's words, Xiang Wanying was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it for a while, she figured out what the other party meant.

What Zhang Liu said is indeed correct.

Given the current situation on the deserted island, the importance of candles is really almost zero.

On the contrary, this candle will play a greater role in making it easier to go out to sea in the future.

"Okay..." He smiled slightly, as a response to Zhang Liu's joke.

Then Xiang Wanying picked up another piece from the lard residue on the banana leaf next to her and put it in her mouth.

"Hoo..." She opened her mouth slightly and exhaled a breath of hot air, and whispered, "It's so hot."

"Eat slowly, there's a lot of lard."

Zhang Liu couldn't help laughing when he saw the cute girl in front of him sticking out her tongue because of the burns. Behind him, the girls' water fight started again.

Chapter 362: Anya's Return Birthday Gift

Maybe for girls this is not just a joke, but a way to vent their inner emotions.

So when playing in the water, everyone played as hard as they could, as if they were trying to use up all their remaining physical strength.

But what’s different is that yesterday Anya’s ever-effective “Dula Dula Water Pouring Technique” was counterattacked and sanctioned by many girls.

Faced with the desperate situation of being outnumbered six, she was pushed into the water and begged for mercy by Qin Ruoyan after half a minute of futile resistance.

He then pulled down Gu Qingrou's underwear beside Qin Ruoyan, leaving her naked...

After taking a shower, the girls in their underwear gathered around the fire to warm themselves.

Since it was time to go to bed and everyone had already brushed their teeth, everyone was drooling over the tempting smell of lard residue, but there was nothing they could do.

I can only grit my teeth and wait until tomorrow morning.

Zhang Liu had already taken off his clothes and went into the water alone. As for Xiang Wanying, she was currently rubbing the hair of her clumsy eldest daughter.

Looking at this scene, Gu Qingrou glanced at Lingying with a little envy.

She thought of her maid Gu Xixi who was also on the plane.

I don’t know whether what Zhang Liu said before was true or false.

Maybe the other people on the plane are still in the unexplored areas of the island...

I hope Xixi can come back safely by then...

"Oh God, I'm Gu Qingrou, I'm praying, if my Xixi can come back, then I will never secretly watch her play self-comfort again..."

Gu Qingrou was just daydreaming like this.

On a pile of rocks in front of a beach on this deserted island, one of four girls who were lying together suddenly woke up.

As there was no campfire for lighting, she could only look up subconsciously at the crescent moon above her head which was gradually becoming rounder while lying in the open air.

Feeling the strange emotions suddenly rising in her body, Gu Xixi, the maid of the Gu family who was wearing a stewardess uniform, sighed slightly, defining it as missing the modern civilized world.

Then she took back her hand that she had placed on her lower abdomen before going to bed, and turned to look at the other three people around her.

One of them was Teacher Zhou Fang, who was wearing a teacher’s uniform.

There were two girls who were both covered with a large bath towel, which was their only clothing.

Take a few deep breaths to suppress the chaotic thoughts in your mind.

Gu Xixi turned her head and fell asleep again, thinking that "help will definitely come tomorrow". Under her was a pile of weeds neatly laid out to provide insulation...

The four girls were surrounded by a rocky beach that had naturally formed into a reef wall.

Outside the rocky beach, there is a pile of snake fruits and egg yolk fruits.

About one or two kilometers behind them was a wide lake, surrounded by snake fruit trees and egg yolk fruit trees.

The fruit trees were covered with traces of climbing and picking, and of being hit with sharp stones.

Obviously, this is the source of the pile of snake skin fruits and egg yolk fruits.

At this moment, night had fallen, and a dozen wolves with faint green light in their eyes had run to the edge of the lake to drink water.

In the lake, there was a dark, thick, long creature swimming quietly, and its target was the wolves drinking water at the edge of the lake.

To be more precise, it was the "sentinel wolf" that was closest to the gentle edge of the lake in order to keep watch.
