After Jiao Lizhi finished speaking, she took two corns from the pot and handed them to Jin Xuyan while saying, "Brother Yan, here."
Jin Xuyan took the corn and was stunned by the weight. He glanced at her meaningfully and said, "Thank you."
Jiao Lizhi smiled at him and took two corns for herself. They sat on the side and had their breakfast.
At the same time, the soldiers each took one corn and started to eat. They still needed to check the factories and get some clothes and underwear for themselves.
As for Pei Yijun and his team, they were surprised that Jiao Lizhi had found corn. The only place they had visited for supplies was the supermarket near Lin'an University.
Thinking about the supplies taken away by Teacher Cao, Li Yang and the rest were still angry and unwilling. But now that they had more supplies, they were no longer as angry as before.
They just felt annoyed whenever they thought about how the supplies they had risked their lives to get were being enjoyed by those beasts in human skin.
Li Yang reached into the pot and took one corn. When he held it, he was taken aback and said, "This corn is so big and plump. How did we miss this kind of corn when we got the supplies?"
When they heard his words, they went to get a cob and realized that the corn was bigger than usual. After they took a bite, the corn juice filled their mouths. The corn was fragrant, and the kernels were plump and sweet.
"This corn must have been placed in the corner or the warehouse," Han Jie said.
Feng Yun shook his head and said, "I checked the warehouse and corners before, and they were empty."
Pei Yijun looked in Jiao Lizhi's direction thoughtfully and said, "Alright, stop talking about this matter."
After they finished the boiled corn, Jiao Lizhi asked for several empty gallon bottles from the soldiers and used them to store the corn water.
Seeing this, Xiao Qi came over and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you like to drink corn water?"
Jiao Lizhi shook her head and explained, "While we can replace drinking water with corn water, it's better to use it to make soup or cook noodles."
"Corn water is similar to vegetable stock. It is full of vitamins, minerals, starch, and flavor—all of which can boost the texture, taste, and nutritional value of other dishes," she added.
Hearing this, Xiao Qi nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so knowledgeable."
"I also learned it from others," Jiao Lizhi replied.
After she filled two gallon bottles, there was still some corn water left. Feeling that it would be a waste to discard it, Xiao Qi went to get his canteen. He drank the rest of the water in his canteen before filling it up with corn water.
