母蜂的复仇

Chapter 71 - Self-Sufficient



After soaking comfortably in the bathtub for 20 minutes, she finally came out of the bathtub reluctantly. Fortunately, the electricity was still working. Du Yue found a hairdryer and dried her hair.

Du Yue had been cutting her hair at home for the past year. Although her skills were definitely not as good as those of professional hairdressers outside, she did not care about looking beautiful anymore. She did not even look ugly after cutting her own hair. Du Yue did not have any requirements for her hairstyle. As long as she could ensure that it did not look too weird, the shorter the better.

In the apocalyptic world, long hair was very eye-catching, and it was very troublesome to wash. The length of her hair now was more suitable for the current living environment. After six to seven minutes of using the hairdryer, her hair was basically 90% dry.

After putting the bathtub and the tent into the interspace, Du Yue took out a mop and mopped up the remaining bathwater on the floor. When the floor was dry, she took out the bed and carpet and put them back in place. Fortunately, she had an interspace. Otherwise, in this apocalyptic world, her health would have been greatly threatened and challenged. She would have broken down long ago if she had to go through so much physical and mental torture every day.

After lunch, Du Yue went back to sleep. She did not like to sleep, so she only slept for about an hour and a half. If she slept for too long, her body would feel very tired, and it would affect the quality of her sleep. Although she basically stayed at home and had nothing to do every day, she still got up early and went to bed early, maintaining a good work and rest habit.

Ever since the extremely cold weather arrived, Du Yue had taken down the heat-resistant curtains hanging on the windows. Later, she hung an additional layer of white gauze curtains on the window. This kind of gauze curtain had an advantage. The sunlight could pass through the curtains into the room, but from the outside, nothing in the room could be seen. It was like a thick layer of mosaic.

This way, Du Yue could turn off the lights during the day. After all, in this kind of weather, the amount of energy that the solar panels could store was completely different from previously when it was scorching hot.

Although there was no power outage at the base, Du Yue was using a lot of heating equipment, so she had to save as much electricity as she could when she had nothing to do. She had to save to spend. She could not waste any.

Du Yue had been watching too many TV shows and variety shows recently, so she was inevitably a little tired of them. She found a book to read. This book was about agricultural technology, and it talked about greenhouse planting. The first base did not have a greenhouse yet, so it was not realistic to plant a large area in the house. However, it was not a problem to plant some vegetable seedlings.

The vegetable seedlings could be eaten as soon as they were planted, and they could also be placed in the house. Du Yue took out a disposable lunchbox that she had used before and put green beans, soybeans, and garlic in them. The beans were wrapped with wet toilet paper and covered with a plate to block the light. Then, she just had to wait for the beans to sprout. Du Yue removed the skin at the top of the garlic to make it easier for it to sprout. Then, she broke off the bottom so that it would be easier for it to root. Finally, she placed the garlic on a shallow plate.

Du Yue had learned these methods in practical class in elementary school. At that time, the teacher had asked everyone to learn how to plant garlic and bean sprouts at home. The teacher had to check who did their homework better. Recalling the carefree days back then, Du Yue’s mood also relaxed a lot.

As long as the garlic was kept at the right temperature and had enough water, it would be ready to be eaten in less than half a month. The bean sprouts could grow even faster and could be eaten in less than a week.

In addition to her training sessions, Du Yue had one more thing to do every day, which was to take care of these young shoots. As expected, the bean sprouts quickly sprouted. Du Yue had only planted a small handful of beans, but when the bean sprouts sprouted, they filled two lunch boxes. Looking at the bean sprouts, Du Yue thought for a moment and took out a lunchbox. After getting dressed, she took the lunchbox to He Xing’s door and knocked on it.
