Chapter 42: Discuss where to go
I hurriedly waved my hand and denied: "No, no, how is it possible, we are all companions, born and died together outside, Sister Yanping, you think too much;." ”
Sister Yanping only has two buckets of water at home, and we can only carry these two buckets of water back and forth at a time, because Sister Yanping and her brother-in-law don't go out much on weekdays, and although they are worried about the two children at home, they are full of desire to meet their parents, but in the end they still dare not go out.
When we went back with the water, she repeatedly told us to come and talk to her as long as we were sure it was safe.
The psychological fear brought by the walking corpse is not something that words can describe, really when you stand up and dare to raise a butcher knife to them, you are not so afraid, the main thing is that Sister Yanping is like this, they always only know how to hide, and they have been lonely and lonely for many years, maybe they have seen the bloody scenes of the walking corpse eating people, and they were frightened by the screams of those people, so fear has filled their bodies.
It is not a matter of a day or two to eliminate these fears, and I didn't persuade her, and when I went home with Chen Wei and Sun Miao, one person carried water, and the other two people had to pay attention to the situation left and right for him.
After returning home, my mother and grandmother had the foresight to empty the jar of the loose son, these two buckets of water were only enough to wash, and we had no choice but to go over again, this time with the two buckets found out of the house.
Before I went out, I said to my parents, "Guess where we found this water?" ”
My dad was researching how to save water by washing the tank, so he looked at me and asked, "Where did you find it?" ”
"Do you remember Sister Yanping?"
"Your uncle's eldest granddaughter, why don't you remember?" After speaking, the mother on the side suddenly answered: "What? Fetching water at her house? ”
"Yes, it's her house!"
"Her family is still alive?!" Dad looked very happy and excited.
"Yes, the family of four is at home."
Hearing this, the mother on the side patted her thigh: "Oops! Yes, yes! Good people have good rewards, your sister has a good heart all her life, God bless her! ”
"Why didn't she come back with you?" Dad asked.
"There are two children at home, and she doesn't dare to go out, so she tells me to go there often."
Hearing this, my father put away his expression and said, "I guess I'm scared." Then he glanced back at his mother: "You and your mother stay here first, and I'll go to Pingzi with my daughter to have a look." ”
"Okay, okay, you go, go quickly."
In the end, my father went out with us to Sister Yanping's house.
Because she had just said that she would come back to carry the water twice, she and her cousin-in-law waited behind the door, and perhaps saw us through the crack in the door from a distance, and when she opened the door, she summoned up the courage to rush out of the house to meet us.
When she saw my dad, Sister Yanping was so happy that she almost couldn't close her mouth: "Yo! Uncle, just now I asked and was still muttering to you silently, this is coming, but I can be regarded as seeing, hurry into the house, and go into the house first. ”
Dad nodded to his cousin-in-law and said hello before he began to respond to Sister Yanping's words: "Pingzi is still the same as before, and she is very close to people." ”
Sister Yanping laughed when she heard this, and waved her hand a little embarrassed: "Uncle, don't bury me, such a broken house, can you not dislike coming in and sitting down is also giving your eldest niece and me a big face." ”
After entering the house, because we still had to fetch water, my father and Sister Yanping stood in the yard and chatted, most of them were about not eating, how good our health was, and how well our children were.
My cousin-in-law is an honest man, who helped us fetch water from the well, tired and sweaty. (.)
We wanted to take over, but he waved his hand and pushed aside: "I'll fight, you will have to lift it in a while, you are tired and tired, what can you do when you encounter a rakshasa ghost?" ”
"Phew!" Sister Yanping, who was with her father on the side, interrupted him when she heard this: "You can't speak?!" Are you such a curse? ”
My cousin-in-law's scolded face was a little unbearable: "I don't just say that, what are you anxious about?" ”
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Dad hurriedly changed the topic.
Someone played a round, and the husband and wife simply ignored each other.
After the water was ready, Sister Yanping wanted to let her father stay and talk to her again, but this time there were four buckets, Chen Wei and Sun Miao carried it, I couldn't protect them alone, so I could only guarantee that the water would come back tomorrow, so Sister Yanping reluctantly let us leave reads;.
Before leaving, she stuffed two Chinese cabbages into my father, saying that they were hidden in her cellar.
My dad didn't postpone it, after all, we have so many people to eat, it's really not a face-saving thing.
On the way back, we didn't dare to speak, kept quiet and walked as much as possible, as soon as we got home, before my mother asked, my father opened his mouth in a thunderbolt: "This little Yanping, the same appearance as when I was a child, I have nothing to say when I see people's affection, this is not the situation now, and I forced to stuff us with two cabbages as big." ”
My mother took the cabbage, motioned for a few of us to pour water into the jar, left a bucket of brushing pots and washing dishes, and boiled water, and then said to my father: "You go over tomorrow and send some meat to his house, don't starve the two children." ”
With water, and my grandmother and my mother, two family experts, everything was quickly washed clean.
I also boiled a pot of hot water on the stove and mixed it with cold water, and a group of us can be regarded as washing our faces.
While waiting for dinner, several of us were chatting in the yard, Xu Yiwen leaned on the car and asked us, "Are we planning to live here for a long time in the future?" ”
Hearing this, Sun Miao played with a dry gourd that he didn't know where to pick up and said: "This is not a place where you can wait for a long time. ”
"Why?" Xiaoyu asked Sun Miao: "Why haven't you been waiting for the land for a long time?" ”
Sun Miao put away the gourd and looked at her: "First, it is definitely okay at present, if there are so many of us for a long time, it is inevitable that we will get sick and catch a cold, there is no medicine here, there is nothing, not to mention these, some other diseases we don't even know about, once someone commits it, we can only helpless." ”
"How can you curse people so that you can't think of something good? What if no one really gets sick? ”
This time, it was Lin Wei who took Xiaoyu's words: "What Sun Miao said makes sense, human life is a matter of heaven, we can't bet on health, illness is like a mountain, and we can't guarantee that everyone will always be healthy, it's better to think about the long term." ”
"And what are you going to do?" Xu Yiwen asked.
After thinking for a while, Lin Wei looked at Sun Miao: "I don't know if my thoughts are different from everyone, the person we saved before, that is, Shuguang, I heard him say that there seem to be a lot of shelters in our country at present, which also shows that not only our place, the whole country, even the whole world, the whole earth, has been covered by zombies, and after all, we have relied on civilization for so many years, and the best way is to find shelter like Shuguang, a large safe shelter set up by ZF." ”
"I have the same opinion as Lin Wei, of course we can recuperate here for the time being, and as for going to the shelter, we can wait for the weather to be warmer." Sun Miao said.
Xiaoyu also spoke up when she heard this: "Although I don't want to, what Sun Miao and Lin Wei said is indeed reasonable, we really can't keep shrinking in this kind of place, once something happens, we can't deal with it at all." ”
I turned my head to look at Chen Wei on the side: "What do you think?" ”
He thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the village next to the train tracks mentioned earlier is worth visiting." ”
"What train tracks?" Xiaoyu, they didn't know the place that Sister Yanping was talking about.
After I roughly explained it to them, Lin Wei said thoughtfully: "It's really worth going over and seeing, but it sounds like a shelter organized by the people, and the scope should not be large."
"It's better than here." Chen Wei looked at her.
In the end, we decided to wait in this courtyard for the winter to pass, and when the weather warmed up, people wore fewer clothes, and it would be easier to deal with the walking dead, and then we decided where to go.
After a group of people ate some warm porridge, my grandmother fried bacon and cabbage, and mixed noodles, preparing to steam steamed buns later in the morning, so that Sister Yanping could send some to them.
Mom and Dad were busy with their work, and every day they took Nian Nian and Nuo Nuo to find the rubber band left by the child in the corner of the house, and they jumped up.
Watching him a half-grown young man jumping rubber bands with two three-year-old kids, I was a little speechless
Chen Wei seemed to find it interesting, leaned against the wall, tilted his head and watched them play for a while.
In the end, Nuo Nuo suddenly wanted to pull the poop, and Tiancai reluctantly shouted to Chen Wei, who was holding Nuo Nuo to the toilet: "Let my sister hurry up." ”
