In order to live well in her last world, she used to sweep the seed stores in the flower and bird market of their city. In addition to seeds of vegetables and fruits, seeds of different kinds of flowers are also available in her space.

To grow these things alive, she also consulted some big farmers, went to the bookstore and swept through a pile of agricultural books, and studied for a long time before she could grow the space things so well.

Furthermore, in order to make the food delicious, she also read a lot of recipes to learn how to cook. The seasonings for cooking in the last days are also in short supply so she also deliberately studied the preparation of seasonings, just to meet her own needs.

Now in this era without zombies, she wants to improve her living standards to a higher level.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhaoci's action of sowing seeds became even more joyful.

After putting all the seeds into the hole, Qin Zhaoci directed the reclamation robot to fill the soil.

After the reclamation robot was done, Qin Zhaoci instructed the gardening robot to water the vegetables according to their ration.

After doing this, Qin Zhaoci secretly transplanted a small apple tree from the space, and planted it with the help of the gardening robot.

"Where did you plant the apple core that Ye Lianyin gave you yesterday?" After she was all done, Qin Zhaoci patted the gardening robot's head gently.

The gardening robot immediately understood the meaning of Qin Zhaoci's words, and slowly moved towards the place where the apple core was buried yesterday.

After stopping, it extended its mechanical arm and pointed to the ground.

Qin Zhaoci followed its movement and saw a small sapling that had grown to the height of the palm of her hand.

Seeing the sapling that grew so fast, Qin Zhaoci was shocked and asked the robot incredulously, "Are you sure this is the apple core from yesterday?"

"Yes." the robot's mechanical voice rang out, "I have watered it today."

"It's growing too fast." Qin Zhaoci looked at the sapling in her hand with admiration, and couldn't help reaching out to touch its newly grown leaves.

"This is the normal growth rate of plants on the planet." the gardening robot explained.

"What do you mean? Does it mean that all the plants on this planet grow at this speed?" Qin Zhaoci turned to look at the gardening robot.

"Yes, master, look at the flowers over there. The Empire has four seasons and four flowering periods per year."

"So if I plant a tree, it can bear fruit four times a year? The yield is too high!" Qin Zhaoci said with a feeling of seeing a business opportunity.

The garden robot replied. "Normally, yes."

"Then I have to plant something more." Qin Zhaoci rubbed her chin and took out the watermelon seeds from space.

After instructing the reclamation robot to reclaim it, Qin Zhaoci planted the watermelon seeds near the apple tree again.

After doing this, Qin Zhaoci stretched her back, stood up and looked at the plots of land reclaimed and sown in front of her, and said to herself with expectation in her eyes, "I hope it doesn't taste bad."

She then wiped the sweat from the corner of her forehead, turned around and walked into the villa. She went to the bathroom, took a shower and had a good night's sleep.

When she woke up again, it was already twelve noon. Qin Zhaoci touched her hungry stomach and got up to go downstairs to cook.

Although there are no delicious vegetables in the Empire, there is still meat and rice.

It's just that most Imperials don't know how to cook, and not many people eat it.

Qin Zhaoci took out the steak from the refrigerator, sprinkled it with black pepper and sea salt, skillfully fried three steaks in butter, and cut up some vegetables and tossed a salad to relieve the greasiness.

Since coming here, Qin Zhaoci has found that her appetite has increased a lot. Last night, she didn't have enough instant noodles, and later took two breads from the space to eat until she was full and went back to bed.

After eating the steak, Qin Zhaoci burped and handed the bowl to the housekeeping robot to clean.

She then took out apples, bananas, grapes, cherries, and watermelon from the space.

She put each of these fruits into the refrigerator near the kitchen in the living room, so that they can be eaten at any time.

After doing this, Qin Zhaoci cleared the memories of 007 and the robots in this area.

Qin Zhaoci read the online introductions to know that robots have the function of memory learning, she was afraid that the things she did in the past two days were remembered by the robot at home, so she could only erase them quickly.

Afterwards, Qin Zhaoci had nothing to do. She lay lazily on the sofa in the living room, and instructed 007 to turn on the home theater and search for popular movies.

The more she watched the movie, the more she got sleepy, and before she know it, Qin Zhaoci fell asleep.

The sleeping Alpha's gland unconsciously released her own pheromones.

Ye Lianyin came back from school and smelled a faint green orange fragrance as soon as she opened the door.

Because it is unconsciously released by the gland after falling asleep, the pheromone smell is not strong, and there is no oppressive feeling, but it makes Ye Lianyin slightly uncomfortable.

After entering the house, Ye Lianyin put down her backpack and instructed, "007, turn on the air conversion system."

"Yes, Mistress." 007 answered, and the air conversion system was turned on.

The moment the mechanical sound of 007 sounded, Qin Zhaoci also woke up.

When Qin Zhaoci woke up, she was a little confused, rubbed her eyes sleepily, looked at Ye Lianyin and said, "You're back."

Ye Lianyin glanced at her but immediately withdrew her eyes. When her eyes laid on her face, her heart unconsciously skipped a beat.

She looks so good-looking that she doesn't look like an Alpha at all.

The beautiful Danfeng [Meaning: Red phoenix] who just woke up, has a hazy eyes, and her granny-gray long hair hangs down on the side of her shoulders, making her look very lazy. The collar of her silk pajamas has two buttons unbuttoned, and her white and delicate collarbone gives off her strong charm.

If the person standing in front of Qin Zhaoci was an Alpha, facing her like this, they probably couldn't help but pounce on her.

"Ahem, pull up your collar." Ye Lianyin looked away calmly, ignoring Qin Zhaoci as much as possible, walked to the kitchen, and opened the refrigerator.

Originally, she wanted to drink a bottle of nutrient solution because she was hungry, but the refrigerator was full of piles of things that caught her attention.

"What is this?" Ye Lianyin pointed to the refrigerator.

"Oh" Qin Zhaoci tidied up her collar, put on her slippers and walked over, and began to introduce, "This is apples, bananas, grapes, cherries and watermelon. Do you want to try watermelon? It's sweet."

"May I?" Ye Lianyin looked at Qin Zhaoci.

"Of course, feel free to eat." Qin Zhaoci held out the smallest watermelon, walked to the kitchen, took a knife and cut the watermelon in half.

She took out two small iron spoons from the cupboard and stuck them on the watermelon.

Then she came out with the watermelon in her hands, and stuffed half of the watermelon into Ye Lianyin's arms.

Ye Lianyin froze, looking at the watermelon in her hand, a little confused. "How to eat it?"

"Just eat it like this." Qin Zhaoci pulled Ye Lianyin to sit on the sofa, picked up her own spoon, and dug into the watermelon to eat.

Seeing this, Ye Lianyin also followed Qin Zhaoci's example and dug a spoonful into her mouth.

"Sweet, right?" Qin Zhaoci looked at Ye Lianyin's obviously satisfied look and asked with a smile.

Ye Lianyin nodded with bright eyes: "Yes, it's delicious. What kind of fruit is this? I've never seen it before."

"It's watermelon, a new variety." Qin Zhaoyin didn't intend to say too much to Ye Lianyin, but only reminded, "You can't eat too much watermelon. You won't be able to eat tonight if you eat too much."

"Oh" Ye Lianyin nodded, took the words into her heart, ate only half of the watermelon in her hand, and didn't move her spoon to eat again.

Qin Zhaoci has a big appetite now, and she didn't need to control it, so she ate the watermelon in her hand. After eating the watermelon, Qin Zhaoci stretched and stood up.

Turning her head to look at Ye Lianyin, she asked, "Shall we have dinner together?"

"Mm." Ye Lianyin liked Qin Zhaoci's cooking quite a bit, so she nodded and didn't refuse.

"Then let's eat boiled fish tonight." Qin Zhaoci rolled up her sleeves, put Ye Lianyin's unfinished watermelon back into the refrigerator, walked to the kitchen, picking up the apron hanging on the wall and putting it around herself.

"Ah, is there any fish for sale here?" After entering the kitchen, Qin Zhaoci suddenly remembered that she couldn't seem to take out the fish in her space casually, and what she was eating just now was already very suspicious.

If the fish she brought out was a rare species or a protected animal in this world, it would be bad to stir up Ye Lianyin's suspicions.

Ye Lianyin didn't know what Qin Zhaoci was thinking about, so she nodded and replied: "Yes, just place an order directly on the optical brain, and it will be delivered in about ten minutes."

"Really? Where do you usually buy it? "Qin Zhaoci trotted out from the kitchen, sat beside Ye Lianyin, and asked curiously.

"Here" Ye Lianyin tapped her optical brain lightly with her fingers, and quickly called up a purchase website.

"This website is a special place to buy things like ingredients, nutrient solutions, inhibitors, blocking patches, and other things. You only need to choose what to buy and pay at the optical brain, then it will be delivered to your home very quickly."

"Like this" Ye Lianyin started to search for fish, and the website responded quickly, and immediately searched for various types of fish.

Qin Zhaoci looked at the pictures of all kinds of fish on the website. Some fish looked very strange, and some looked particularly beautiful. After looking around, Qin Zhaoci didn't find any species similar on the earth, and didn't know what to choose.

Ye Lianyin saw Qin Zhaoci's dilemma, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What kind of fish do you want to cook?"

"Are you sure all these fish are edible?" Qin Zhaoci's knowledge on earth told her that the more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they are. Poisonous mushrooms were all colorful, so seeing these good-looking fish, she had some doubts about whether they could be eaten or not.

Ye Lianyin looked at Qin Zhaoci's defensive look, nodded and shook her head: "There are many fish here that are poisonous, and only those restaurants that can handle them will order them. Although they are poisonous, their meat is very delicious."

"See these beautiful fish, they are poisonous. If you come across them, don't touch them, you will be poisoned. People in the Empire generally don't buy them to eat, because most people don't know how to handle them."

"How about these one, the ones that look more ordinary, are the ones the Empire people would normally buy to eat at home, these are the marine fish, and these are the freshwater fish, if you really don't know, you can ask the online robots on the website, they will answer."

"Oh, okay." Qin Zhaoci was enlightened after hearing the introduction. "Then these non-toxic ones, which one has the best quality?"

"This one, I've eaten it in a restaurant before, and this kind of fish tastes good." Ye Lianyin stretched out her finger and pointed, zooming in on a picture of a fish.

Qin Zhaoci looked at it and nodded: "Then let's go for it, it's only the two of us, so just buy two-kilogram, it should be enough for us."

"Okay." Ye Lianyin quickly placed the order.

After buying the fish, Qin Zhaoci stood up, turned around and went into the kitchen to prepare the side dishes for the boiled fish.

After cutting the side dishes, the fish that Ye Lianyin ordered had already arrived.

Furthermore, after the fish had arrived, the website directly asked the robot to slaughter and process it on the spot.

As soon as Qin Zhaoci got the fish, she changed her knife and started to marinate.

Looking at the way she handled the fish so skillfully, Ye Lianyin frowned and became suspicious.

Before she lost her memory, Qin Zhaoci was a well-known playgirl. She didn't go out to work after graduating from the Imperial Military Academy. A rich second-generation who only ate at home every day and just waited for its own death, when did she learn how to cook?

Before Ye Lianyin could figure it out, Qin Zhaoci suddenly turned her head to look at her, and asked, "Do you want me to squeeze a glass of watermelon juice for you from the watermelon left in the fridge?"

"Watermelon juice?" Ye Lianyin froze, "What's that?"

"Don't you know?" Qin Zhaoci looked at her puzzled look, frowned, and muttered in a small voice: "In this world, technology may be the only thing that amazes people. Surrounded by machines, but they don't even have a chance to eat delicious food, what a pity."

"What did you say, I didn't hear you" Ye Lianyin only saw Qin Zhaoci's mouth opened and closed, but didn't hear her clearly.

"Oh, it's nothing, wait for me, I'll just buy something." Qin Zhaoci looked around the kitchen and found that there was really nothing like a juicer here.

She could only try to use her optical brain to search for alternatives. While searching, Qin Zhaoci's hand was not idle, and had already started frying the spices for boiled fish.

After searching for a while, Qin Zhaoci finally found an alternative that could squeezed something. To be precise, it was a meat grinder. The Empire still has meat to eat, so Qin Zhaoci didn't feel surprised to have this.

Quickly placing the order, Qin Zhaoci walked to the refrigerator, took out Ye Lianyin's unfinished watermelon, and asked, "Can you drink it iced?

Ye Lianyin thought for a while, there was still some time before her estrus period, and nodded: "Yes."

"Okay." Qin Zhaoci nodded, scooped out a few ice cubes from the small compartment of the refrigerator that makes ice quickly, and poured them into the watermelon.

After doing this, 007's voice suddenly rang out, "Master, your courier has arrived."

"Please bring it in for me," Qin Zhaoci patted the housekeeping robot's head, and the housekeeping robot mechanically responded and went to the door to get the courier.

Unpacking the courier, Qin Zhaoci looked at the instruction manual, and after confirming that there was no problem, she waved to Ye Lianyin and motioned her to come over.

Ye Lianyin didn't know what she'll ask her to do, but she thought that she had eaten a lot of her food, and it was hard to refuse, so she walked over.
