Apocalypse Rebirth: Rational Stockpiling and Slacking Off

Extreme weather events like freezing temperatures, storms, intense heat, heavy rain, earthquakes, and hail caused severe shortages of living supplies; mutated animals and plants along with human vi...

Chapter 11 A Terrible Relative Gets into Trouble and Gets Beaten Up

Due to the impact of extreme weather, a very strong cold front is approaching, accompanied by rain and snow, which will affect the delivery of daily necessities.

If it rains in such extremely cold weather, it will only make things worse.

Soon after, it started to rain, and everyone rushed into buildings to avoid the extreme weather. If rainwater is not dried off promptly, it can quickly turn into freezing rain, causing frostbite, increasing the risk of heart disease and respiratory infections.

Some people who went out to find supplies died because they did not take shelter in buildings in time.

Jiang Yao looked at the rain outside, wondering how Xiao Mu and the others were doing.

Shen Zhijie's second personality, Shen Zhiyao, is like a bad girl, constantly challenging the bottom line of Jiang Yao and Shen Zhijie. This guy is now using his actions to provoke Jiang Yao's last bit of rationality.

Shen Zhiyao: "Honey, your bras are so outdated."

Jiang Yao.........

I shouldn't die from taking too much medicine, right?!

[Shen Zhijie: "It's over, I'm ruined. Although I don't want to see it, I'm not in control of my body right now. What should I do? Waiting for an answer online..."]

"Could you please not touch other people's private belongings?"

[Shen Zhiyao: "What are you afraid of? Don't you want to look at what I'm holding?"]

Shen Zhijie: "If I could close my eyes, you wouldn't be here."

[Shen Zhijie: "If you dare to wear this, believe me, I'll commit suicide right now. At worst, I'll die a double tragedy."]

[Jiang Yao cried out, "Please come and save me!"]

Shen Zhiyao: "My sister, let's do face masks together!"

What do you think of these face masks?

Jiang Yao felt her head buzzing; she really couldn't understand how they could tolerate "Do it yourself!"

"I don't really want to do it."

Shen Zhijie said, "Don't use my body to do these kinds of illicit things with her."

"I'm a real man, okay?!"

Inside an abandoned old house.

As Xiao Bao ran, he shouted, "Mommy, come save me! I'm going to be beaten to death!"

When Cai Lin came out, she saw Xiao Bao being chased by an adult and anxiously called out, "Xiao Bao, come here quickly, come to Mommy."

"What are you doing? You're a grown man, why are you chasing after a child?"

Qin Li angrily said, "You are the parent of this child, you have to compensate me for the food."

"Otherwise, this matter is not over."

Chae Rim, protecting Xiao Bao, asked, "Xiao Bao, why was he chasing after you?"

Xiao Bao hid behind Cai Lin and whispered, "I ate his pancake, and then he chased after me."

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Why are you arguing with a child? It's just that I ate one of your pancakes."

Qin Li had also heard that this family was unreasonable, so he called everyone over to judge the matter. He clasped his hands and said, "Everyone, I, Qin Li, have lived under the same roof as you all, though we haven't eaten together, for at least two months. You all know what kind of person I am."

"Please give me some justice today. It's not the first or second time that Cai Lin's child, Da Bao, has been stealing my Yin Yin's pancakes. I'm sure many of you have encountered the same thing."

The atmosphere became tense.

"Although Da Bao is a child, we adults need to provide proper guidance. Don't you all agree?"

"Yes! Children need to establish correct values ​​from a young age."

"Exactly! If kids aren't properly disciplined these days, what will they be like when they grow up? They'll be out of control!"

"Oh dear, he might just be a murderer!"

“Da Bao’s mom, why don’t you do something about it? If this continues, it will get out of control.”

Seeing that everyone was on her side, Cai Lin was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. After all, if everyone got angry and really returned the grain, her family would really starve.

That Qin Li is really something. Doesn't Da Bao just eat his Zhang Bingzi?

You really don't care about these things with your child.

Jiang Yao was originally going to Old Zhang's house with Shen Zhiyao, but Shen Zhiyao kept insisting on eating Old Zhang's poached chicken. Left with no other option, Jiang Yao had to take her along.

As they passed by the dilapidated old house, Shen Zhiyao saw a large crowd gathered there and curiously pulled Jiang Yao over to take a look.

Unexpectedly, it was Aunt Cai Lin's son, Da Bao, who caused trouble.

At this moment, Chae Rim saw Jiang Yao in the crowd and quickly waved her hand, saying, "Everyone, please make way, please make way."

"See this? This is my niece. Do you know who her friends are?"

"You'll be terrified if I told you."

Have you heard of Poseidon Construction & Decoration Company?

The crowd began to whisper among themselves, "It's that Poseidon Construction and Decoration Company that collaborates with the government."

Qin Li angrily said, "It doesn't matter if you're from Poseidon Construction and Decoration Company or Da Bao's aunt."

"You must compensate your child for the theft."

Crowd: "It's that sea god who's going to build a safe haven for us in Area A!"

Crowd: "Even the sea god wouldn't tolerate a child stealing!"

Seeing that everyone was starting to hesitate, Chae Rim pressed on, saying, "If the child takes anything from you, his aunt can return it."

“She has plenty of food, I’m not lying to you.”

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Aunt Zhang in our village."

Jiang Yao looked at Cai Lin and replied, "I have no food. You should ask her for some!"

"I don't know her well, so don't be fooled by her."

Aunt Cai Lin panicked, "Jiang Yao, you're the child's aunt!"

Jiang Yao looked at Da Bao and replied, "Da Bao, do you know what mistake you made today?"

Da Bao looked nervous and blushed as he whispered to Jiang Yao, "I stole Yin Yin's pancakes."

Jiang Yao looked at everyone, then at Da Bao: "Do you know what to do?"

Da Bao turned around and threw himself into his mother's arms, crying, "I was wrong, I really know I was wrong this time, Mom, please give it back to them!"

"I will never steal food again."

Cai Lin anxiously pulled the child over and said, "I have no food, what can you do to me?" Then she turned and left.

Qin Li stopped Da Bao's mother and said, "Give us back our food, or you're not leaving."

"Yes, give us back our food."

"It's the same natural disaster, yet your family doesn't use its own resources and always tries to take advantage of others. How can that be reasonable?"

After she finished speaking, shoving began in the crowd. Neither side would back down. As the fight intensified, Aunt Cai Lin's clothes were torn open by someone, and she also got bruises on her face.

There was no one to break up the fight, which shows how many people he has offended in the past.

In a contest of numbers and strength, he covered his head and cried out, "Give me back, give me back, please stop hitting me!"

The shouts of fighting alerted the village chief. After the village chief's mediation, it was agreed that half of the items would be returned first, and the rest would be returned gradually.

Only then did the farce subside.

Seeing the tearing apart of the crowd, Xiao Bao will likely be left with serious psychological trauma.

Jiang Yao walked over to Xiao Bao and comforted him, "Xiao Bao, this isn't your fault."

"You are a good, obedient child. Don't let adults' mistakes affect your judgment."
