Chapter 138: Otherwise, we'll dig down
The bonfire crackled, Xiao Wenye looked at the little firewood on the side again, and felt worried.
This idea can't last a night, but I hope those hot stones can give a little strength, and I hope that tonight will be safe......
For dinner in the evening, the family simply ate some dry food.
It's not that I don't want to make a good meal, but I just forgot about this stubble when I bought it;
It's not that Xiao Yuqi doesn't want to take out the delicious food in Daquan Litun to enjoy, but in fact, my mother doesn't know what to worry about, so she just won't let it;
In this way, what else can be done, the family can only eat the little dry food left in the bitterness, and drink the half-pot soup cooked in the small iron pot, even if it is a dinner.
As for why don't you go to the village well to fetch water?
Well, when he came back from collecting firewood, Xiao Wenye also went to the precious well to see.
It was a deep well, and it was necessary to draw water with a long rope and a wooden barrel.
Although the family did not have a wooden barrel suitable for going down the well to draw water, the wooden barrel for carrying water was not impossible, but the problem was that the barrel could be completed, but they did not buy such a long rope.
Now it seems that their temporary procurement in Yonggu City is still not in place......
After pouring the remaining water in the water bladder together, I made up half a pot of soup, and the whole family could finally warm up after drinking.
After eating, the three brothers and sisters of the Xiao family, especially Xiao Yuqi, who were sitting on the side of the fire, watched their parents divide labor and cooperate with wide eyes.
One pulled the stones out of the fire and spread them into the long shallow pit that her stupid father had dug just now, and covered them with sand and gravel, and her mother took the dead grass she had just pulled on the barren beach and spread a layer of linoleum cloth, and a simple bed that could keep warm was ready.
Urging the three little ones to lie down and rest quickly, Xiao Wenye first pushed the wheelbarrow behind him to block the cold wind for the children, and then moved the fire to the children.
"Rong Niang, don't be busy, there is so much work, you can't be busy for a while, you hurry up and go to sleep, have a good rest, and do it again tomorrow.".
Li Yurong got her husband's concern, she smiled, but obediently put aside the work in her hand, left the wheelbarrow and walked back to her husband, before sitting down and asked, "What about you?" ”。
"Me?" , Xiao Wenye smiled indifferently, and poured firewood into the fire, "I'm fine, I'm very energetic!" Rong Niang, you hurry up and go to sleep with the children. ”。
As for yourself? In this wilderness, it is obvious that he can't support firewood for a night, so he still waits solemnly and guards his wife and children at night.
Li Yurong saw her husband's expression, and she didn't know what he was thinking.
felt sorry for her husband, Li Yurong said: "Husband, I'm not sleepy yet, otherwise I'll talk to you." ”。
"Huh? What does Rong Niang want to say? ”。
"Husband, what do you think we should do next? Is it to build a house here? How to build? Do you have to go to Yonggu City to buy masonry and wood? And just relying on our family of five, this house is ......", it really feels difficult to think about it, and it is difficult to go to the sky.
In such an environment and in such weather, even if they don't have to worry about money, if they want to build a home, the difficulty is not ordinary!
Xiao Wenye listened to his wife's chatter and sighed in his heart.
Alas! No wonder Dao can't sleep, his family's Rong Niang, this is shocked and frightened by the current bad situation, is he worried about the future......
Xiao Yuqi, who was alone on the other side of the quilt and slept separately from her two brothers, her cold little feet were protected by the eldest brother and the second brother, and after she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep and overheard her parents' conversation, she suddenly had an idea in her heart.
She still remembers that her mother was gone that year, and after she buried her mother with her own hands, when she returned to the nest where she and her mother did, she found that the house was occupied by other villains, and what was waiting for her was her own clothes thrown out of the nest by the other party, as well as a tube of expired nutrient solution......
At that time, she was only as big as she is now, with small arms and legs, and she was not lucky enough to find that box of expired high-grade genetic improvement liquid, so in the face of a strong enemy, she could only consider herself unlucky.
She also had to be glad that the other party saw her as a cub, so she was merciful.
Pitifully picked up the things that the other party threw out to save her life, and with a small burden on her back, she embarked on the road of wandering.
Without the protection of his mother, carrying a tattered burden, and only a tube of nutrient solution, he was left in the worst environment of the garbage star, that is, the ninth district where there was the most garbage, the most polluted, and nothing but garbage.
At that time, I hadn't discovered the secret of the space button, and I was really poor and embarrassed if I didn't bind the space button!
Later, she encountered garbage storms one after another, and in the barren ninth district, in order to stick to her mother's promise to live by herself, she really had no choice, and in the end she could only dig down from the garbage mountain.
At that time, she thought, no matter what, dig a pit to hide herself and avoid the garbage storm.
Later, slowly, slowly, slowly, planing, planing, planing, and planing, she expanded and improved the home under the ground little by little, and found that the home under the ground was quite good.
Don't be afraid of the storm on the ground, no rain, no sun, no cold in winter, not hot in summer, except for the taste is a little bad, it's really great to be anywhere.
Now that I am embarrassed to see my parents, I look at the barren environment here now, and I think it is better than a garbage star.
As......
"Mother, father, why don't we dig down."
"How do you dig down?".
"Qi'er, why haven't you slept yet?".
The couple said well, and suddenly a voice came out, and the bluffing two turned back together.
However, it is obvious that the couple did not have a tacit understanding this time, and the words asked were incompatible.
Xiao Yuqi is embarrassed, it's not good, pretending to be asleep was found by the parents!
Hehehe, he laughed dryly, but in his heart he wanted to give the two of them a big mouth, telling them to talk a lot and should be sewn up.
That look, Su Yun, who was sent out to sentry, had spicy eyes.
Xiao Wenye saw his daughter pretending to be smirking, he didn't care about the child pretending to be asleep, and eavesdropping on his parents' conversations.
"Good girl, come, talk to Daddy, how should we dig down?".
Xiao Yuqi saw the helpless smile of her mother on the side, and saw that her mother did not have the posture of settling accounts after the autumn, she was instantly relieved, and wanted to arch out of the bed, but was quickly held down by Li Yurong.
Just kidding, on such a cold day, in the wilderness, no matter how hot and cold the child is, he will not be able to freeze out of illness.
"Settle down!".
"Oh." , Xiao Yuqi responded obediently, but the little arm ignored her mother's seriousness, and pulled it out firmly, gesturing on the ground outside the bed, "Dad, we can do this, like this, like this, ...... like this."
