When Anna and her daughter came back by bicycle, it was lunch time at the resettlement site and a long line had formed in front of the public tent.

Anna quickly pushed her bicycle and joined the queue with her child.

The three meals at the resettlement site are all time-limited. If I miss the meal time, the mother and daughter will go hungry at noon today.

"Hey! Anna, where did you get this bicycle?"

Sister Zhang, who was in the same tent, had a good relationship with Anna. When she saw Anna go out for a whole morning and come back pushing a brand new bicycle, she was quite envious.

Bicycles are so expensive nowadays! A slightly better one costs thousands of points! In the tent where they live now, they have to walk a long way to get hot water, get food, and even go to the toilet. It is much more convenient to have a bicycle!

"Borrowed! I'll return it later!"

Anna simply replied, not wanting to continue talking to Sister Zhang. She was still thinking about something. She didn't know if Qin Yufei was willing to help her.

"I guess he stole it! Who else would have a bicycle here except for the owners in the villa area? Do you think the owners across the street are so kind-hearted as to lend their bicycles for no reason?"

The woman who had fought with Anna twice took the opportunity to contradict her. After she said that, the people in the queue suddenly looked at Anna as if she were a thief.

"Oh no! What should we do if we share a tent with her?"

"What should we do? Be careful at all times! Especially if you have points on you, you must hide them well!"

"Then I have to ask the manager to change my tent. I don't want to live in the same tent with a thief."

"You...what are you talking about? I'm not a thief!"

Anna was getting angrier at what the women in the same tent said. She thought that the bitch must have been stirring up trouble in the tent while she was out in the morning.

Now she is raising a child alone, and she is definitely no match for these gossipers. She has to find Ma Xiangyu as soon as possible, and then secretly beat up these gossipers. Let's see who dares to gossip about her for no reason.

The official lunch distributed today was barreled instant noodles. There were two staff members, one unpacking the package and the other pouring hot water, just like a factory assembly line, with each one operating the task.

"Wow! Just smelling this fragrance makes my mouth water!"

"But one bucket is not enough! The children are given one bucket, and the adults are also given one bucket. This is a bit inappropriate! How can one bucket for an adult be enough?"

"Ask for more soup then, it will be enough for one meal!"

For the disaster victims who had been eating steamed bread and porridge for several days, eating instant noodles today was considered an improvement in their diet. However, many people still complained that the portion was too small, and a bucket of instant noodles was not enough for an adult man.

Many people squatted on the open space nearby to eat the instant noodles after they got them. The aroma filled the entire tent with slurping sounds, which made many people who were still in line swallow their saliva.

"Mom! I want to eat instant noodles too! They smell so good!"

The naughty kid tugged at Anna's clothes, his eyes rolling at those who were already eating instant noodles.

She licked her lips from time to time and swallowed her saliva again and again.

Anna looked up at the people in front of her. There were about ten of them. She held the naughty child's hand and said, "Qinqin, be good. It will be our turn soon!"

The people queuing next to her were still whispering about how one bucket of instant noodles was not enough, but Anna didn't care.

Because she brought a five-year-old child with her, she could get two buckets of instant noodles. That’s how much a five-year-old child can eat, and the rest could be eaten by her.

Soon, Anna was at the front of the line. She pushed her bicycle to a corner of the public tent, then ran over and took two buckets of hot instant noodles with both hands.

"Mom! Give it to me quickly! I want to eat instant noodles!" The naughty kid followed her and shouted for instant noodles.

"It's still hot now. Qinqin, go sit by the bicycle first. You can eat the instant noodles soon!"

At this moment, the naughty kid was still quite obedient. He ran to the corner where the bicycles were parked and waited to eat instant noodles.

Some people who live nearby still take their buckets of instant noodles back to their tents to eat, while those who eat on site are basically those who live far away.

From inside the tents to outside the tents, there were many people gathering in groups of three or four to eat instant noodles.

Anna and her son were also slurping the food with great relish. Within ten minutes, only the soup was left of the instant noodles in their hands.

Anna miscalculated this time. The naughty kid was so strong that he not only finished all the noodles, but also drank up all the soup!

…

In Villa No. 6, Qin Yufei was busy cooking in the kitchen. Ma Xiangyu was watching her very attentively. He said he was helping in the kitchen, but in fact he was just standing aside and eating an apple.

Qin Yufei also felt particularly happy, and made Ma Xiangyu his favorite sweet and sour pork ribs and steamed hairy crabs at noon.

Qin Xiu exchanged these hairy crabs with Su Keke during the Chinese New Year using other supplies. At that time, each of the three of them ate one, and froze the rest, planning to eat them during the Dragon Boat Festival or Mid-Autumn Festival.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Ma Xiangyu came back, Qin Yufei couldn't wait to take it out and steam it for him to eat. Qin Xiu didn't even bother to pay attention to his sister who was in love. She had a husband, so this brother and daughter were no longer hers.

Yingying still refused to call Ma Xiangyu dad. When Ma Xiangyu came back from Coco's place, he wanted to hug her, but she ignored him.

Now Yingying follows her uncle all the time. When Qin Xiu reads in his room, she plays with building blocks in Qin Xiu's room.

Qin Yufei was not in a hurry. She told Ma Xiangyu, "The child is still young, he will be fine in a few days!"

In fact, Ma Xiangyu didn’t care much about Yingying’s attitude towards him. He just needed to please Qin Yufei and have a good life here.

In the kitchen, waves of delicious aromas were wafting out. After the crabs and spareribs were ready, Qin Yufei planned to cook two more dishes. One was the scrambled eggs with tomatoes that Yingying liked, and the other was the minced meat and eggplant that Qin Xiu liked.

When Ma Xiangyu saw the hairy crabs that he hadn't eaten for a long time, his eyes lit up with excitement and he immediately grabbed one.

Qin Yufei didn't say anything to him, and she was very considerate and poured soy sauce and vinegar for Ma Xiangyu.

"Ding Dong! Ding Dong!"

While Qin Yufei was chopping meat, the doorbell rang outside the villa.

"Who is here at this hour?" Qin Yufei muttered, and was about to untie her apron and go out to open the door.

"I'll go open it! You continue to cook your food!"

Ma Xiangyu, still holding a half-eaten hairy crab in his hand, ran out happily to open the door.

"Ah...Ma Xiangyu...why...why are you here?"

As soon as she opened the door, Anna screamed loudly. The father of her child whom she had been looking for for a long time was actually in Qin Yufei's house. This... This was too shocking for her.

"Shh! Don't shout!" Ma Xiangyu quickly pulled Anna and her son out.

Qin Xiu stood at the second-floor window and watched coldly, thinking that Ma Xiangyu was just a stubborn old man. He had only been back for one day and he was already flirting with other women again.
