Chapter 3: Bedtime Stories
After the end of the world, water and electricity were destroyed, which meant that factories could not produce, and then there was a shortage of food and various daily necessities.
Therefore, after the generator, Xia Qing went to Huijing Garden, the largest community in the development zone, which will become the base of H City after the end of the world, and at that time, if there is a house to sleep in the base, it can be regarded as a rich person.
If she buys it in advance and lives in it, even the boss of the base will not be able to kick her out at that time.
In this way, after the end of the world, the eldest sister and her father and grandmother will come and have a place to live.
In the end, Xia Qing valued one of the two-story villas, which had been renovated, but the owner Mrs. Wu planned to sell it, and returned the funds to prepare to start a business.
After looking at the house, Xia Qing took someone to her dim sum.
Seeing the sales sign hanging on the glass door, Mrs. Wu, who was about to start a business, was interested and asked to take a look at the store.
Xia Qing couldn't wait to take someone to visit immediately.
The store itself is well decorated, the little girls are young and beautiful, the craftsmanship has also been trained, plus the location is good, the customer flow is also large, seriously, if it is not the end of the world, she is really reluctant to sell.
"Very good, I like it very much, but I'm going to go back and discuss it with my family and give you an answer tomorrow."
The landlord, Mrs. Wu, is a cool character, and when she says this, there is a chance that she can settle down.
Before leaving, Xia Qing said about it, "Mrs. Wu is very satisfied with it today, if nothing happens, it will be settled tomorrow, and she also promised me that she will keep you after buying the store, so don't worry about losing your job, work hard, and make money." β
"By the way, I don't know if you read the post." Xia Qing seemed to be more and more interested as she spoke, and simply sat down again.
"Sister Xiaoqing, what's wrong with the sticker?" The youngest, Xiaoyu, brought a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and sat down across from her.
Seeing that there were not many guests at this time, she motioned to Xiao Qi behind the counter, "Go and call your Sister Lan and Sister Lu out to breathe, and listen by the way." β
When everyone sat down, Lan Tingjun asked, "What are you going to say?" β
"Stick, I saw a post in the past, saying that the end of the world is coming, just a month later, on May 1st!" Xia Qing lowered her voice and said.
That's another thing she should do to everyone.
Looking at her serious face, Lan Tingjun almost didn't squirt out of the coffee in his mouth just now, "No, you won't take it seriously, right?" Xia Qing looked at her very seriously, "What if it's true, it's better to have more things at home!" β
"I'm telling you, it doesn't matter if it's credible or not, many people in our community are ready to sell more things, and if there is no end times, they will eat it themselves, and when the end times come, they will save their lives, but it's just a matter of running more errands...... What do you think? β
Lan Tingjun nodded, "That's right, it won't cost a few dollars, and even if there is no end of the world in a month, the family will not be unable to eat...... I'll listen to you, and I'll go back and buy more food for my family. β
She and her husband have to go to work, her mother-in-law cooks at home, the supermarket is far away, and her mother-in-law has bad legs and feet.
"Sister Xiaoqing, I also listen to you, I like to store a lot of snacks at home, and I can eat them at any time." Regardless of whether the news is true or not, Xia Qing's words make sense.
Everyone almost decided to save food, Xia Qing specially reminded, "Don't just remember the food, there is water, buy a few more buckets of water to prepare." β
"If you don't say it, I'll forget." Xiaoqi stuck out her tongue.
"Okay, there's nothing else to do, if you can, try to inform your family as much as possible." Xia Qing got up after speaking, picked up the packed gift box on the table and took out the snacks.
I went to the opposite side to pick up Xia Ze and Xia Rui, the little brothers learned new things today, and made a new partner, they were so excited that they couldn't stop chattering.
I bought an ice cream for each of the two children, "Ma Ma and the teacher have something to say, you two are now playing in the playground, you are not allowed to run around, if Ma Ma comes back and can't find anyone, there is no bedtime story at night." β
"Ma Ma (aunt), we definitely don't run around, we are good babies." The two little buns laughed and held their faces, and their chubby faces were very cute.
β¦β¦
"Teacher Qu, it's like this, our family has moved, it's too far away from the new home, I plan to transfer my two children, what procedures do I need to go through."
Ms. Qu, a young female teacher, teaches English to children.
"This has to go to the principal, settle the accounts here first, and then open a transfer certificate, that's all there is to us." Teacher Qu said with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Qu." Xia Qing smiled and handed over the box in her hand, "Thanks to you for taking care of the Xia Rui brothers during this time, this is the dim sum in my store, take it back and taste it, it tastes good." β
Hearing that it was a dim sum, Teacher Qu did not refuse, and took it, "Xia Rui and Xia Ze are smart and clever, they learn everything quickly, and their future achievements are unlimited, cultivate them well, and they will have great achievements in the future." β
"I will." Xia Qing didn't say much, and left with Xia Rui and Xia Ze after saying goodbye to Teacher Qu.
β¦β¦
"Mama, Mama, I'm going to tell a new story today!" After taking a bath, Xia Zeguang was stumbling on the bed.
Next to him, Xia Rui was obviously much calmer, holding a children's book in his hand and reading it energetically, a year older was really different.
Xia Qing helplessly patted Xia Ze's bare ass twice, "Look at what my brother is doing, a little fool who doesn't learn anything!" β
"Auntie, Ozawa is still young, I'm older, I learned to teach my younger brother." Xia Rui got up, snuggled up to Xia Qing's waist, and hugged her waist, "Auntie, I also want to hear today's new story." β
The round eyes blinked, and Xia Qing's heart softened, "Okay." β
The mother and son lay in a row on the bed, and the two children held her arms in Xia Qing's left and right.
"The story that Ma Ma wants to tell you today is called the end times."
"What are the last days, and can you eat them?" Xia Ze sucked his saliva and asked.
"You know that you eat, and the last days are not for eating...... What is the end of the world, when the end of the world comes, some uncles, aunts and children have mutated and become fools, they don't recognize their parents, parents and good friends, they have to eat when they see people, especially children like you are the best to eatββ"
Xia Ze and Xia Rui were frightened and fell into Xia Qing's arms, hugging her waist tightly, their frightened little faces turned pale, "Ma Ma (aunt), be afraid, don't be eaten." β
Xia Qing gently patted the two children's backs, "Although these monsters want to eat people, they are not powerful at all at the beginning, they walk slowly, as long as their hands and feet are fast, they can cut off their heads with a knife, but you must be careful, you must not be surrounded by several zombies, once they are surrounded, without the help of others, the zombies will eat your flesh." β
