After Rebirth in the Apocalypse, I Raised My Kids to Triumph

In an apocalyptic world of oxygen scarcity, mutated plants, and the collapse of human civilization, whether human or plant, the only goal is to survive.

In her past life, the apocalypse came ...

Chapter 48 This temper is going to be tough!

Cheng Zhen reported truthfully: "All the information in Jiangwan is consistent with the information in the talent system!"

Pingjiang's gaze fell on the two children, his eyes filled with suspicion.

Cheng Zhen remained expressionless, his back straight, showing no sign of guilt or hesitation at being questioned.

Jiang Wan is the only remaining plant expert. If they doubt or even reject her identity and refuse to accept her help simply because the two children look alike, then they deserve to perish in the apocalypse!

Jiang Wan herself felt even less guilty. Feeling uncomfortable with the way everyone was looking at the twins, she said, "You can ask me if you have any questions. Why are you staring at the two children so fiercely? You scared them and made them cry. Are you going to comfort them?"

Upon hearing this, the older twin didn't react much, but the younger twin immediately hugged her leg and cried out, "Mommy, I'm scared! Waaah, they're going to eat Xinxin! Waaah~!"

The entire room full of captains and squadron leaders couldn't help but feel annoyed. When did they say they wanted to eat children?

Jiang Wan reached out her hand, gently patting and comforting her, saying, "Don't be afraid, Mom is here."

Old Chen glanced at Pingjiang and reassured him, "Expert Jiang, don't mind us. We're just rough men, and we speak our minds."

Pingjiang nodded: "Yes, they look too much like Cheng Zhen, they really aren't his children?"

Jiang Wan retorted, "Even if it is, what does it have to do with me, Jiang Wan?"

That temper of hers is really something!

She really does look like Cheng Zhen!

For a moment, everyone in the room was lost in their own thoughts.

Old Chen chuckled and smoothed things over, saying, "Alright, alright, I've already verified the information. Comrade Jiang Wan is the talent expert we're looking for. From now on, we'll all be colleagues in the same system, so we should be considerate and respectful of each other."

As he spoke, he winked at Cheng Zhen, "Today is a rare opportunity, let's all get to know each other."

Pingjiang stood at attention and saluted first, then extended his right hand: "Pingjiang, Battalion Commander of the First Column of the Outer City Battalion!"

Jiang Wan didn't even lift her eyelids. She reached into the pockets of her shorts, half-closed her eyes, and said in a cool voice, "My name is Jiang Wan. Nice to meet you."

Then he turned to Cheng Zhen and asked, "Where is the dormitory?"

Pingjiang looked very unwell, and the others exchanged glances without making a sound.

Old Chen smiled broadly, but he was actually looking at Cheng Zhen. Cheng Zhen's temper was just as bad as this kid's. And these two kids, he himself didn't believe that they had nothing in common!

Cheng Zhen secretly raised an eyebrow. Compared to this, Jiang Wan's usual attitude towards him could be described as gentle and kind!

He looked at Old Chen as if seeking permission, and only after receiving his nod did he say, "Come with me."

Jiang Wan kept her hands in her pockets, her gaze sweeping over everyone before finally settling on Old Chen's face: "I need equipment to study what's wrong with the green plants. Also, the water hyacinths we brought back can't be thrown away carelessly. They're considered a nuisance, living in both water and land. Dig a pond and raise them; that'll be enough for you to eat for a lifetime."

Old Chen immediately agreed: "Okay, just make a list of what equipment and materials you need."

He then instructed Cheng Zhen, "The water peanuts were captured by you, and you have experience with them, so this matter will be handled by your squadron!"

Once outside, Cheng Zhen couldn't help but secretly stare at Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan noticed: "What's wrong?"

"You did this on purpose?"

Jiang Wan snorted coldly: "Because I am a woman, they have already looked down on me from the start. What use is it if I have the best attitude? Everything depends on strength."

Cheng Zhen couldn't help but look at her with new respect and nodded sincerely: "You're right."

The two little ones followed behind them, ignoring the man standing in their mother's way. Their eyes shone with adoration as they looked at their mother, whispering to each other:

"Mom is so amazing! So powerful! So impressive!"

"Um!"

"I want to be like my mom when I grow up!"

"..." Jiang Xiaoshu's expression was somewhat indescribable.

The silly little girl didn't notice anything amiss and was still daydreaming in her little head: "Waaah, that's amazing!"

Three-year-olds have limited vocabulary, and they only use a few words like "amazing" and "powerful" over and over again. Jiang Xiaoshu has become immune to it. She can say five sentences and he will reply with an "um".

The twins followed each other to their new home in a strange yet harmonious way.

Jiang Wan originally thought she would only be assigned a dormitory, with a kitchen and bathroom if the conditions were better, but she didn't expect that her treatment would be so good. She was given a small suite, which was no smaller than her apartment in Yincheng Yazuo.

This should be the oxygen storage room built in their camp, which is also their dormitory building.

Jiang Wan's apartment is on the top floor; there are two apartments in total.

Cheng Zhen explained to her, "The house next door belongs to Old Chen, but his sister-in-law has passed away, so he didn't move in, and it's been empty ever since."

Jiang Wan was quite surprised: "Then he doesn't have any children?"

Old Chen looked to be in his fifties or sixties.

"Yes, he is in our camp. Old Chen has put a lot of thought into this, not giving him a chance to use connections, and making him climb up based on his own abilities."

Jiang Wan was even more surprised: "Going into hiding? Starting from the bottom?"

interesting.

Cheng Zhen gave her a smart look, then went inside and checked every corner again to make sure there were no problems before saying, "There will be people on duty outside. Just tell them if you need anything."

Jiang Wan nodded and glanced out the window: "Are they all your people?"

"yes."

Old Chen assigned him the task of protecting the experts, and of course, he only used people he trusted.

Cheng Zhen also had to dispose of the water hyacinths according to her instructions. After giving these instructions, she prepared to leave.

"Cheng Zhen." Jiang Wan suddenly called out to him, then leisurely walked to the door, stood on the railing and glanced down. "It's so high, you'd be smashed to pieces if you jumped, right? You made me live here so I'd have nowhere to escape if I were in danger?"

Cheng Zhen was taken aback.

Where do you live?

He pointed to the side, where there was a cluster of three-story buildings, which were also the barracks dormitories.

"Are there any vacant rooms? If not, we'll go and prepare one."

After saying that, Jiang Wan walked out first, afraid that she would be left to live alone on such a high floor.

After much effort, Jiang Wan ended up becoming neighbors with Cheng Zhen's entire squadron. They gave her their best and largest suite, which included a separate bathroom and kitchen, and it was located on the second floor. Jiang Wan was somewhat satisfied.

The two little ones went inside with great enthusiasm and toured the place for a while, then came out wrinkling their noses in unison: "Mommy, it smells awful here!"

"Everywhere you look, there's a stench of men!"

Outside the door, the young soldiers who hadn't gone far were all stunned and looked at each other in bewilderment.

This suite used to be where their captain lived!

Is this an insult calling their captain a stinky man?

Does the captain know that his own men are calling him a stinky man?!

They all stopped in their tracks and listened intently.

Then they heard the new, beautiful expert, who supposedly even argued with the battalion commander, say in a cool and aloof tone, "It really does smell bad, but you'll have to bear with it."
