Chapter Twenty-Five: A Warm and Good Day

"Wow! Masters in the folk! It's so greasy! Qin Xiaoman smiled and gave a thumbs up, ignoring the crowd who were glaring at us.

I coughed and said to them, "It's really just a misunderstanding!" Why should there be violence? Right? Save your strength to fight the zombies, they are in a food crisis, and they are always thinking about coming in and eating our meat. ”

But they didn't cherish my friendliness at all, and left with a few gulps.

Potato happily dropped the clothes pole and continued to pick up his shoes with his long knife, as if the little episode that had just happened had nothing to do with him.

"At any time, a maverick will unknowingly make enemies, and the eyes of those people just now are wrong." Qin Xiaoman whispered to me.

"Regardless of them, they are too energetic, fighting zombies on the city wall every day, and they don't have the spirit." I remembered that everyone was as tired as dogs in the days when the zombies were attacking the city, and they were still idle.

"Brother Potato is really funny, and he is so fierce, he is definitely a good hand at fighting zombies." Qin Xiaoman praised Tudou's martial arts.

"The line is the champion, so there was a small article on WeChat before, how to say it? Never underestimate anyone. I picked up a pair of camels, "These shoes are good, ask if you like potatoes." ”

We didn't publicize this when we went back, and the potato thing was a bit embarrassing, and it was not a pleasant thing to be mistaken for exhibitionism.

Seeing that the base was safe for the time being, the partners discussed taking advantage of the fact that the weather was not completely cold, and went to the field to find some pumpkins, corn and potatoes to come back and stock up, the food was enough, but the vegetables have always been in short supply, and the ecosystem in the institute could not supply so many people at all.

As the weather cooled down, more and more people flocked to the base, and soon the number of people at the base soon exceeded 6,000, and we had to make some preparations for the winter.

After applying for a van and gasoline, the buddies left the base in the direction of the zombie mound, pulled back several truckloads of corn, pumpkins, potatoes, and sweet potatoes, and stocked them up in the underground garage of Lily Garden. The corn has been hanging on the stalk for too long, it has run out of pulp, but it can be eaten, and the corn cob can be crushed to feed the livestock, as well as the horses.

Dad made more and more gnocchi soup, with a little pork fragrant, chopped pumpkin potatoes and gnocchi boiled into a pot, both delicious and nutritious, if the institute has green leafy vegetables, Dad will add to the gnocchi soup.

Meat and eggs, the number of fruits is getting smaller and smaller, I often see that for breakfast, we eat simple porridge and pickles, and Shuai Shuai can have a boiled egg and a fruit, which makes me very uneasy, although children need a lot of nutrients when they grow up, but the declining body of the elderly also needs, and the habit of eating alone for children will cause him to become selfish when he grows up, the reason why we can live well in the last days until now, relying on partners and teams, is by no means a single effort!

I told my parents these words, and they nodded their heads again and again to show their understanding, but they also insisted on giving the rare food to Shuai Shuai to eat, and repeatedly emphasized that their bodies were very healthy and did not need those extra nutrients, and my mother kept saying that her cholesterol was too high to eat eggs.

No one can have any high cholesterol after the end of the world, and I haven't even heard of anyone getting diabetes! I know that some problems don't make sense at all in the old man, so I simply started with Shuai Shuai and told him that if Grandpa doesn't eat eggs and fruits, he can't eat them, Shuai Shuai is a little puzzled, I patiently told him that Grandpa doesn't eat because he is reluctant to eat, but this is not right, people must know how to share, otherwise there will be no friends in the future.

The next morning, he raised a knife and cut the peeled boiled eggs into five parts, one for his grandfather, one for his parents, and one for himself.

The fruit is also the ugly five little teeth cut by his immature knife technique, but in my eyes it is the cutest five little teeth.

This move made my parents feel distressed, the eggs and fruits were not big, and one-fifth was pitifully small, but if they didn't eat them, Shuai Shuai resolutely didn't eat them, and in desperation, the second elder stuffed his share into his mouth, and tears flashed in the corners of his eyes.

Canaan and I looked at a small piece of egg and a small tooth of fruit in front of us, both proud of our son and distressed for him, but we still calmly ate the child's mind, compared to the child's lack of a little nutrition and cultivate his spirit of sharing, we pay more attention to the latter, do not know how to share whether it is before and after the end of the world, it is a terrible personality, the only child is more likely to generate this character, we can't always be by the son's side to protect him, shaping the trait of attracting partners is the most profound love for him.

"In the spring of next year, I will plant vegetables and fruit trees in this park!" Dad said fiercely.

"Yes, everything will be better next year! General Pi also said that he would return the land to the field and grow food in the base, and Shuai Shuai would eat less delicious food this winter and it would not affect his physique, so you can rest assured. "I sipped cornmeal porridge, also known as muddle porridge in the Northeast, which is simple, fast and nutritious to make, considered coarse grain but very refreshing to drink.

"Mom, I'm a little underfed." Shuai Shuai finished eating his small slice of egg, smacked his lips, and said to me with a little face.

Children are like that, they are very honest and sometimes they don't know how to take care of other people's feelings, but they are honest and cute.

I handed him a small bowl of mushy porridge, "Come, son, drink a bowl of this and you'll be full." This muddy porridge is fragrant, the boy has grown up after drinking it! ”

Looking at Shuai Shuai holding a bowl of porridge and snoring and drinking, Canaan and I looked at each other and smiled, in fact, Canaan's eyes were full of distress, he doted on children more than me, if this family didn't have me, they could spoil Shuai Shuai.

"Ouch, my face is a little itchy!" Canaan suddenly scratched his face, annoyed, "Son, you hurt me, dad is allergic to eggs." ”

I was stunned, when did Canaan have egg allergies? But when I saw him squeeze his eyes at me, I understood.

This guy ...... I still can't bear to snatch my son's eggs and eat them.

"Tomorrow when you divide the eggs, cut it into four parts, Dad can't eat eggs, as soon as you eat it, your face is very itchy, whew, it's so uncomfortable." Canaan was like the real thing, and Shuai Shuai really believed it.

"I'm sorry Dad, I don't remember you allergic to eggs, are you still itchy? I'll scratch it for you. The naΓ―ve handsome man seriously helped Canaan scratch his face, and Canaan was intoxicated with happiness on his face.

"How can it be so coincidental?" Thunderstorm appeared at the door at some point, leaning against the door and laughing, "Uncle and aunt are also allergic to eggs, no one in our family eats this egg, and his aunt asked me to send it to Da Shuaishuai." ”

As he spoke, he flipped his palm, and a few boiled eggs fell round in the palm of his big hand, so cute.

We tacitly know that the shortage of material supplies is just distressing for our children.

Shuai Shuai happily took the egg and said thank you uncle, suddenly a little melancholy.

"Big nephew, why are you unhappy to have eggs to eat?" Thunderstorm asked with a smile as he sat next to Shuai Shuai, and took an empty bowl and sucked a bowl of confused porridge.

"Dad is allergic to eggs, uncle and aunt are also allergic to eggs, will Shuai Shuai grow up also allergic to eggs? What should I do if I can't eat eggs that are so delicious? "It turns out that Shuai Shuai is worried about this, this guy......

"You kid, what do you care about so far away? Today there are eggs to eat today, and tomorrow allergies to eat something else. Thunderstorm knocked an egg a few times, peeled the skin, and handed it to Shuai Shuai.

An arsenal in the eastern suburbs of Chengdu was reopened by General Pi to produce bullets of all kinds, and many men participated in the production as workers, but our partners were not notified to come to work.

Zhu Hong went to consult General Pi and expressed his willingness to contribute this force, General Pi meant that the number of workers is sufficient, but there is a shortage of personnel with combat effectiveness, and he means that if the city is attacked by zombies again, we will be responsible for defense with the soldiers, and now, we just need to recuperate.

Of course, it is our responsibility to protect the base, there is nothing to say, I wonder if General Pi is guilty of driving us out of the building and forcibly sending us to seize the grain depot, which will take extra care of us again.

This sudden cold and hot made us weird.

Luo Han never forgot the "Luohan" brand beef jerky in Changxing Island before, and saw that everyone was free, so Zhang Luo asked Jiang Laohan to start another beef jerky factory, which had to be discussed with Ankyo, after all, the raw materials still had to be supplied by the research institute's ecosystem, Anqiao thought about it for a few days and agreed, which made Luohan happy.

There are a lot of abandoned food factories in Chengdu, we helped Jiang Laohan choose the most suitable, turned on the electricity, tested the machine, the oiling of the oil, the equipment for the equipment, the beef jerky factory was finally rebuilt, the raw materials were supplied by the research institute, and the finished products were also handed over to the research institute as reserve food, and it was not usually distributed as daily food.

Luo Han didn't care who handed over the large amount of beef jerky he made, he squatted in the factory, and he was satisfied with the latest beef jerky every day, and he also came back from time to time a few bags for Shuai Shuai to eat.

I didn't have much to say about the moth of Luohan, and occasionally scolded him for stealing ghosts, and then he would always throw me a bag to block my mouth, and I was happy to be pulled into the water and enjoy this little pleasure together.

Potato still wears only running shoes and underwear every day between us, and is deeply loved by the elderly and children, although the old people always take the trouble to persuade him to wear more clothes to avoid catching a cold, and the children always remind him that it is time to change his underwear, etc., but he will not be annoyed at all, just happy to respond, the east family goes west, it is hard to believe that this is a lone ranger who hates to live in groups.

Of course, Zhang Xiaomei still calls him "Flesh Exposed" and has never changed his name.

I have learned a lesson, I don't dare to take Shuai Shuai out alone, even if I am active in the base, I will definitely call a partner together, if something happens again, I can't blame others, people can't fall twice in one place.

The gang of people who were looking for potatoes to ask for their guilt never bothered us again, although the potatoes still had amazing thick lines everywhere, occasionally causing bursts of screaming or laughter.

The days are so warm and harmonious, although the tea is coarse and the food is light, but the family is healthy, the partners are reunited, the old people are loving, and the children are lively, even if this is the end, what can it do?
