When Du Huairen saw Su Keke and the others planting vegetables in the yard, he suddenly had an idea and pulled his two eldest sons out to stretch their muscles.

There is a piece of vacant land in front of the property management office. The soil here is fertile, and the weeds grow taller every year than in other places.

Today, Du Huairen brought brothers Du Yifan and Du Yichen to loosen the soil on the land.

"Dad! Why don't you let Chen Lian and the patrol team do these rough jobs? Did our Du family raise them just to stand guard there?"

Du Yifan was dragging a hoe given to him by Du Huairen, looking unhappy as if he had not yet woken up.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? If you don't want to do it, just take your hoe and stand guard at the gate of the villa for a day. See if standing guard is more tiring than hoeing the ground here!"

Du Huairen almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he saw his prodigal son. Fortunately, there was one who was still normal, and was now imitating him and carefully loosening the soil.

Du Yichen has been smarter than his brother since he was young. Even if he is unhappy about many things, he will not say them out loud.

The old man recently got a batch of vegetable seeds from somewhere. He probably wanted to trick other residents in the villa area into planting them together, but he didn't expect those people to be so short-sighted.

After being scolded by the old man, Du Yifan didn't dare to yell anymore. He carried a hoe and followed Du Yichen, working slowly with a shovel left and right.

"Oh my god! Am I seeing things? Has the Du family really fallen into decline? Even the old man has to come out to farm?"

Ding Ming was driving and when he passed by the door of the property management office, he glanced outside and said in surprise.

"Don't meddle in the Du family's affairs. Even if they are in decline, they are still better off than us. At least they can still afford a security team of dozens of people."

"If we can't buy supplies anymore, we have to open up the wasteland and plant crops ourselves. We don't have seeds or fertilizers, nor do we have farm tools or people to work. So, do you think you should do the work or should I?"

Mu Zhizhi was a little annoyed. She really didn't expect that the natural disasters outside were so serious.

Ding Ming and I drove out early in the morning just to buy more supplies.

I didn't expect that after going back and forth in Lingcheng for a long time, I couldn't find any place to buy food except the official exchange point.

When the typhoon first hit, Mu Zhizhi used his connections to stockpile a large amount of supplies.

After more than half a year of squandering, there are only 2 boxes of instant noodles, 4 bags of 20 kilograms of rice, a box of mineral water and a box of canned luncheon meat left at home.

These things might be enough to sustain an ordinary family for a while, but since Mu Zhizhi became famous at the age of 25, he has to spend 200,000 yuan a month on food alone, and all the vegetables and seafood he eats are air-freighted.

Even in the face of natural disasters such as typhoons, floods, and extreme cold, they have supplies and are able to eat and drink well, and have never treated themselves badly.

But Mu Zhizhi never thought that these natural disasters would come one after another, and there is still no sign of stopping.

"My dear, if the day comes when you need to work, of course I will do it. How can I let your delicate hands do such rough work?"

Seeing Mu Zhizhi's unhappy face, Ding Ming immediately coaxed her. He was able to live this dream life with Mu Zhizhi in the past few years thanks to this talking mouth.

With the current situation outside, if he can't hold on to the big tree of Mu Zhizhi, how will he live after leaving the Lanshan villa area?

He was used to living in a mansion and eating delicacies from land and sea. Now making him sleep in the open air was even more painful than killing Ding Ming.

Mu Zhizhi hasn't left the Lanshan villa area since the natural disaster. This time, all the fresh food stocks at home were gone, so she thought of going out to purchase in large quantities.

Boss Fang, who had previously provided her with large amounts of seafood, meat and vegetables, has long been out of contact.

She thought that even if she couldn't stock up a lot of supplies this time, she could always buy some fresh meat and vegetables.

I didn't expect that except for the Arashiyama area, the houses, fields and factories outside were all in dilapidated condition.

The two thought they had accidentally entered a wasteland world.

All the commercial streets and shops are in a dilapidated state. Even though the weather is gradually returning to normal, there are few people on the streets.

There are no supermarkets to go to now. Not to mention buying seafood or beef, there is no place even if you want to buy some vegetables.

The official exchange points do have some instant noodles, rice, and flour that can be exchanged, but you still have to bring the items to exchange, since you can’t buy anything with money now anyway.

Mu Zhizhi, who failed to buy supplies, returned to Villa No. 12 with an uneasy heart.

In the future, what should I do when I finish eating up my stored food?

Ding Ming quickly ran to the kitchen to cook instant noodles for the two of them. While there was still some electricity in the villa, he had to get something to eat quickly.

He didn't care about these things anyway, Mu Zhizhi could always find a solution.

…

Su Keke and Grandma Qiao had been busy in the villa yard for most of the day and were now eating lunch at a small table under a parasol outdoors.

Since they both had to grow vegetables in the afternoon, they ate fast food in the space at noon.

Su Keke got two fast food meals with beef, shrimp and vegetables, and two glasses of lemonade.

The two were talking and laughing while eating lunch. This kind of life was very comfortable. Su Keke hadn't gone abroad for free shopping for a long time.

"Meow... meow meow..." Tangyuan, who was concentrating on eating, suddenly rushed to the living room.

Bang! Bang, bang, bang! Su Keke heard the sound of something falling down in the house.

"Tangyuan! What are you doing in there instead of eating your meal?" Su Keke put down the fast food in her hand and walked into the villa while calling Tangyuan.

"Ahh... snap..."

Su Keke heard a few crunching sounds and looked towards the living room. Wow! Tangyuan was happily eating a cockroach the size of an egg in his mouth!

Super-sized cockroaches? Unexpectedly, they appeared so soon. Su Keke quickly took out a few bottles of insecticide from the space.

In the previous life, Su Keke and her friends had no food, so they could catch these big cockroaches and exchange them for some lower quality rice from the government.

Su Keke and Grandma Qiao’s usual method is to use slippers to gently slap the cockroaches until they slow down, and then use chopsticks to pick them up and put them into a large woven bag.

You must control the force when hitting the cockroach with the slippers well. If you use too much force and smash the cockroach to pieces, you won't get a good price for it even if you take it to the official. The ones that are alive and kicking are the best to sell.

"What's wrong Coco?"

When Grandma Qiao saw that the man and the cat had not come out for such a long time, she also ran in.

"Ah!" As soon as Grandma Qiao came in, she saw a huge cockroach running past her.

"How...how come there are such big cockroaches? There weren't cockroaches this big during the last insect plague?"

"Meow... meow..." After Tangyuan finished eating a big cockroach, he chased another cockroach everywhere.
