It was completely dark, and Fei Qianlan, who was holding her younger brother in her arms, sat with her mother on the small cloth mat on the floor of the living room, waiting for the second and fifth uncles to come back.

In order to save money, the Yang family rented this old house without installing electrical circuits, nor lighting candles for lighting, and the entire living room could not be seen.

"When Aze and the others come back, we will light the lamp and eat again, and now the days are very tight, don't mind. In the haze, there was a faint black shadow on the opposite side, and the voice that spoke was slightly awkward.

"It's okay, we can save it. Yang Shuyao hurriedly responded, knowing that her younger siblings had some strong personalities, so she had to change the topic out loud, "Although I can't see it here, it's much safer than outside the base, and I can sleep peacefully." ”

"No, if our eldest brother hadn't been seriously ill, the family would have been finer. But as soon as he fell ill, our house was disliked. Long Yilan, who felt bored, began to open the conversation box and slowly elaborate on this time.

When the end of the world came, Fei Qianlan's uncle Yang Shuyu's family of four, his aunt and two cousins were all in a coma in the hospital and became zombies. That day, the eldest uncle did not go to the hospital because of the awakening of the water system, but fortunately survived.

The other two uncles and third aunts didn't have anything to do with them. Yang Shuyao, who sighed for a long time, recalled the smiling expression on her sister-in-law's face when she came to Yuandu last year.

It wasn't until eight o'clock in the evening that the group came back from outside one after another, and Long Yilan took out an old glass-covered oil lamp from behind the door, took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it.

Yang Shulan is the second in line, and when he comes out of his mother's womb, he has a weak body and can't do heavy work. I only received a sweeping errand in the fifth district, and I was able to receive a steamed bun every day. Opposite. Yang Shuze, who was at the bottom of the line, ran to do the wall work like his eldest brother.

Except for Long Yilan, who had to take care of the sick at home, the others ran outside to earn as much food as possible. It is three young children, all sensibly running to the market to set up stalls and pick up things that others don't want.

When they returned home exhausted, they were pleasantly surprised that the fourth child was back, especially Yang Shuze, who was at the end, shouted several times at the door, took off his hat and happily patted the white ash on his body, and then approached Yang Shuyao in a few steps, and his sunken eyes fell on Fei Qianlan and the others, and said excitedly, "These are my two nephews, right?"

"Little sister. Yang Shulan, who was only three years later than the boss. Pushing the glasses with cracks on the bridge of his nose, although his expression was faint, the sight that could be seen through the lenses fell on the three of them, and he was imperceptibly friendly and gentle.

Fei Qianlan took Tong Tong and walked to them, and said hello one by one, especially Tong Tong blinked his eyes wide, and ran to Yang Shuze and Yang Shulan without being dirty, "Uncle, let's go and sit." ”

"Okay. "Pick up Tongtong. Yang Shuze weighed the weight of the child in his arms and showed a long-lost smile, "Well, that's good." It's a lot older than last year. ”

In the yellow light, the middle-aged man's short hair close to the scalp was yellow. The body is thin and slightly rickety. He hugged Tongtong, which weighed more than 30 pounds, and his strong palms were full of green muscles.

There is a big difference with the gentle image of the little uncle in the impression. The original appearance of thirty-seven years old is more than ten years old. Fei Qianlan sighed secretly, if the little uncle had to carry the burden like this in the future. It wasn't long before I got sick.

"Shu Yao, you are back. During this time, Dad and Big Brother often talked about you, worrying about this and worrying about that. Now, we can rest assured. The middle-aged woman, who also had short haircuts, even though her face was yellow and thin, and her voice was not full of energy, but her eyes showed a slight smile when she looked at them.

On the left and right sides of the middle-aged woman stood a boy and a girl of the same age as Fei Qianlan, a pair of children from the second aunt, an older brother Yang Hekun and a younger sister Yang Hening.

They took the little hand of the little uncle's daughter Yang Herong, and ran to Yang Shuyao's side very politely to nod and say hello, since they were wearing dirty clothes and had a filthy face, the Yang family's strict education since childhood made them not forget the politeness they should have.

Eleven people sat cross-legged around the low table, with not enough cushions. As the three children stretched their necks in anticipation, Yang Shulan first took out a piece of mixed bread wrapped in plastic from his arms and carefully placed it on the table.

Immediately afterwards, the second aunt Ye Xinxue was also turned out of her sleeve for half a piece of bread, and her thin face actually showed joy, "I was lucky today and got half a piece of bread." ”

The corner of Fei Qianlan's eyes swept over her uncle and the others, and found that their expressions also showed a little happiness, which showed that before, they had lived such a hard life without special abilities.

After that, it was the little uncle who took out a piece of white-flour steamed bread that he had obtained from doing a wall masonry today, and the two and a half steamed bread on the table were flattened and deformed, and the eyes of several people began to become hot.

Tong Tong, who was sitting on the right side of Fei Qianlan, opened his black pupils curiously, looking at their movements, and couldn't understand how to divide this thing?

"I'm going to get a knife. Yang Shulan got up and ran to the kitchen to get a knife wrapped in paper and two plates, and divided the food on the table into twenty-four equal portions of about the same size.

"These two pieces are left for my father and eldest brother. He deliberately picked out two slightly larger steamed buns, put them on a plate, and took them to his father and eldest brother in the room.

"Sister, and Lan Lan, Tongtong, you eat first, you should be hungry when you come from a long distance. Yang Shuze picked up the knife and pulled three pieces to another plate, then after thinking about it, he pulled three more pieces and handed them to Yang Shuyao.

Seeing her husband set aside two pieces for his sister, Long Yilan opened her mouth to say something, but was glared at by her husband's glances, although anxious but helpless.

Yang Shuyao didn't notice this subtle move, she patronized and paid attention to her daughter, and just gave her daughter a frequent look, but she didn't get any response.

Seeing that ten people in her mother's family only ate two and a half steamed buns and bread for one meal, she was embarrassed to eat her stomach, so she naturally wanted her daughter to take some food out.

But the daughter is good, as if she didn't see it. Yang Shuyao had no choice but to refuse her brother's kindness, and said with a smile, "We're not hungry, you can eat." ”

After speaking, she hugged her little niece Yang Herong, who was sitting quietly on the other side, and sighed slightly, "Rongrong, are you hungry?"

Even if he was so hungry that his stomach growled, Rong Rong only swallowed his saliva and said sensibly, "Fourth aunt, you eat first." ”

Yang Shuze saw his sister's excuse, thinking that she saw that the situation at home was really bad now, and planned to save it for them, so he couldn't help but strengthen his tone, "Sister, are you disgusted?" (to be continued......
