Chapter 10: The Big Refrigerator
After reloading Yaya's diapers and changing into clean clothes, Lu Chao carried her into the living room, found a clean plastic bag, kneaded the rice into rice balls one by one, and fed them to Yaya.
Yaya ate happily.
She has eaten wolf meat for more than a month, and like Lu Chao, she is particularly affectionate to rice.
Yaya has been hungry for too long, and Lu Chao didn't dare to feed her too much, for fear that she would break her stomach.
After eating, Yaya happily walked around the room, throwing her toys everywhere, apparently forgetting the scene of starvation yesterday.
She was also ignorant of the changes in the world and the dangers outside.
Only occasionally would she walk up to the security door and stretch out her little hand and tap on the security door.
She remembers that her father used to take her out of here to play in the community. There are a lot of friends there, and it's very lively and fun.
Occasionally, Dad would take her to the park to play.
However, she hadn't been out of the house for a long time, hadn't been to the park for a long time.
Lu Chao sighed, it was too dangerous outside, otherwise he would still want to take her out for a walk.
It's not good for children to be bored at home like this all the time.
Maybe she didn't sleep well last night, and after walking in the room for more than half an hour, Yaya came to Lu Chao to hug her, looking at the way she rubbed her eyes, it was obvious that she wanted to sleep.
Lu Chao put her back on the bed after changing the clean sheets, and only then returned to the living room outside after watching her fall asleep.
Lu Chao took off the dirty clothes on his body, threw them into the washing machine with the changed sheets, and then returned to the sofa bed and sat down.
Last night, for more than ten hours in the tree, two wild wolves tried to climb the tree from time to time to catch him, he was desperate and scared, Yaya was his spiritual support, and it was the belief that has always supported him to persevere.
He told himself that he must come back alive.
When he dies, Yaya will have nothing to rely on, and will starve to death at home.
……
Before preparing to catch up on sleep, Lu Chao got up again.
He studied the bread maker he had brought back, and was going to make a bread out of it, and when he and the girl woke up, they could eat fragrant bread.
Lu Chao found all the raw materials needed to make bread from that family.
An egg wrapped in newspaper in a toaster.
Although the eggshell was broken, the egg liquid did not come out.
Start by adding the egg wash and water to the bread maker, followed by the milk powder, butter, sugar and salt.
Then two measuring cups of breadcrumbs, and finally a teaspoon of yeast.
When Yi Li was there, she once proposed to Lu Chao that she wanted to buy a bread machine, but Lu Chao thought it was too expensive and was reluctant to buy it.
Unexpectedly, after being 'hijacked' here, he actually owned a bread machine.
It's a pity that Ellie is no longer there.
After mixing all the ingredients, Lu Chao plugged in the bread maker and pressed the start button.
The bread machine stirred up on its own, and looking at the time display above, it took more than three hours to bake.
Lu Chao imagined the deliciousness of bread in his mind, and then returned to the sofa bed and fell asleep.
I don't know how many hours have passed.
Lu Chao was awakened by Yaya's crying.
He hurriedly got up and went into the bedroom to change the diaper for the girl, and then fed her another 200 milliliters of milk.
In the past, Yaya had to drink milk four times a day, but then it was reduced to once, and she was hungry for more than ten hours yesterday, so she has to make up for it today.
Less than a third of the last can of milk remained, and soon she was no longer able to supply what she needed for the morning.
If she can't find formula milk powder, she will have to drink the adult milk powder that Lu Chao brought back.
Di Di ......
The bread in the bread maker is baked.
Lu Chao put Yaya back into the bed, walked back to the living room and lifted the lid of the toaster.
Inside is a toasted brown and fragrant bread.
Lu Chao put on thick gloves, took the bread out of the bread machine, and happily entered the bedroom.
Yaya's eyes lit up when she saw the yellow and fragrant bread.
Lu Chao broke a small piece with his hand, blew it and fed it to Yaya.
Yaya really likes to eat, she screams and jumps on the guardrail on the bed, opens her mouth wide and points to Lu Chao to continue to eat.
Lu Chao continued to tear the bread in his hand into pieces and feed it to Yaya, feeling a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
She is his responsibility as a father.
Even though she was 'kidnapped' into the wilderness, he did everything in his power to keep her from starving.
Let her live happily and happily.
Before becoming a father, Lu Chao never knew that a father's love for his daughter could be so deep.
……
After Lu Chao washed, he picked up the remaining bread and ate it.
It's so fragrant.
Although yesterday was very hard and thrilling, the meal of rice at dawn and this bread made Lu Chao feel that yesterday's hard work was worth it.
There's still a lot of food in that house, and if you want to get it all back, you'll have to make another trip today.
There are also the tasks of the supermarket.
Two wild wolves, it's a headache.
If it does, and he doesn't find out in advance, he probably won't be able to come back.
However, staying at home is certainly not a good thing.
Two hours later, Yaya fell asleep.
"There is enough food at home for a while, so don't go out these days." Lu Chao imitated Yili's tone to persuade himself.
"No, there are still some things to move back as soon as possible, and I now have plenty of experience dealing with those two wild wolves."
"Let's go back in a few days."
"In a few days...... I'm afraid that someone else will get ahead of the curve, and it's not just my family who will be 'kidnapped' into this woods, but many other families, each of whom will face a food shortage. Lu Chao frowned.
"However, I am very worried about your safety, in case I encounter those two wild wolves again......"
"I promise, for you, for Yaya, I will definitely come back safely." Lu Chao secretly encouraged himself.
……
More than half an hour later, Lu Chao came back.
This time he swept away the unopened bag of rice, the rest of the powder, the eggs, and everything in the freezer of the house's refrigerator.
The question is...... After moving things back, Lu Chao found that there was not enough space in the refrigerator at home.
That family was a 300-liter refrigerator, and Lu Chao's family only had a Xiaoice box of more than 100 liters, which also stored uneaten wolf meat.
The importance of stockpiling food is self-evident, and the more food you stockpile, the greater the hope that the father and daughter will survive.
The average temperature in the woods is more than 20 degrees, neither cold nor hot, which is a temperature that is more suitable for human life. But the woods are damp, and if you don't have a refrigerator, the food won't last for two days and it will become moldy and spoiled.
Yaya hasn't woken up yet.
Lu Chao went out again.
For the sake of the long term, he decided to move back the family's 300-liter refrigerator.
The new book is on the list, and I want to collect and recommend tickets~
