Farming for Survival in the Apocalypse

Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...

Chapter 506 So Sour

Chapter 506 So Sour

After hearing this, everyone dispersed.

However, there were still a few people who were jealous and said sour things: "If the man is sick, he should go to the hospital. Why does he have to change to some delicious food to supplement? I think it's because there is too much grain. Maybe his wife is greedy and is embarrassed to say it out loud, so she uses the boy as an excuse."

"That's right. I don't know where his family got the food, but he was able to exchange it for so many good things. Do you think he could have exchanged it for the supplements sent by other families in the building?"

These words were actually a bit hurtful. If those with less intelligent minds heard them, they might even feel resentment towards the couple. Although they were a little jealous of their good life, if these words got out, they would not be able to escape responsibility if they were held accountable.

So someone who was a little more rational said, "How is that possible? The things those people in the building gave were good things in the first place. Who would be stupid enough to exchange good things for good things?"

"That's true. She's lucky to get married. After she gave birth to a baby, her husband actually spent all his remaining food to buy her delicious food. She really didn't miss out."

This person was probably so jealous that he forgot about what Shen Yanming said about his friend being sick, and only remembered the other gossipy things that Qiao An was greedy about.

But as soon as she said this, someone teased her: "If you have the ability, you can find a husband who loves you so much!"

"Ah, bah, I've been married for so many years, what are you thinking? I'm not the type to have an affair!"

"Then you can get pregnant again. It's not impossible for an old clam to give birth to a pearl!"

"Go to hell, even if I give birth to a child, my wife won't buy me food. That young man must not know how to live, so he dares to waste money like this. Tell me, we eat more rice than they eat salt, who doesn't live frugally?"

"Yes, yes. You are not afraid that the family's food supply will not last until the summer harvest, and you just give it away so casually. It's really necessary to have no elderly people at home!"

"Yes, yes, if we want to live a good life, we have to be capable people to run the household. His delicate little wife won't do!"

"Yes, you have to marry a capable wife. That girl is so weak that she can't even lift a hoe! She is just waiting for someone to support her!"

"Hahaha, my family can't afford to support someone who eats free rice!"

“My family can’t afford it!”

“My family too!”

......

Shen Yanming didn't know that four plastic bags could make people jealous to the point of making up stories about his young wife. If he knew, he would definitely regret it.

He welcomed the young soldier who drove him into the house, then took out two bags of food weighing about 20 kilograms from the kitchen and handed them to him in exchange for these supplies, and also stuffed him with a handful of fruit candies.

After thanking him, the soldier took the food and prepared to leave. But before he reached the door, he saw the door of the guest bedroom open and a man with a gloomy look walked out. When he saw him, he was stunned for a moment.

"Old Shen, is this your colleague?" Zhang Heping asked.

Shen Yanming nodded without further explanation.

The young soldier smiled at the other party, said hello to Shen Yanming, and left.

When he went downstairs, the group of old ladies were still talking sourly. He didn't want to pay attention to them at first, but when he thought of the candy in his pocket, he couldn't help but say, "There is indeed a patient at home."

The group of older ladies froze for a moment and smiled awkwardly, "We didn't say anything, did we?"

The young soldier shook his head and drove away.

After he left, someone curled his lips and said, "So what if there is a patient? If the patient was seriously ill, he would have been sent to the hospital long ago. It is probably just a cold and fever, not a big deal. Whoever eats that thing is still unknown!"

After this person finished speaking, a group of people echoed him.

Some people prefer to live in fantasy and are unwilling to believe the truth of things.

Inside the house, Shen Yanming sorted out the things in the bag.

All the fruits and vegetables that can be eaten directly were packed together and given to Zhang Heping when he left.

Take out the fish, shrimp and pork that cannot be eaten directly and eat as much as you can in the next two days.

If he can’t finish it, cook it into cooked food and take it back with you.

Seeing him sorting, Zhang Heping was stunned. Shen Yanming said that they were all exchanged from the guard team, which made him envious again.

After everything was sorted, Shen Yanming began to prepare breakfast. Because he couldn't take ready-made food from the space, he could only use these ingredients to make it first.

Fortunately, Zhang Heping was in good spirits after getting up, so he could help out. He was quite skillful in washing vegetables and chopping meat.

Shen Yanming stared at him carefully for a while, and after confirming that he was in good condition, he stopped watching. This made Zhang Heping breathe a sigh of relief.

"Have you called the hospital?" Shen Yanming asked.

"Not yet. I think I've gotten rid of the fever now, so I'll go back to work soon!" said Zhang Heping.

Chen Yanming didn't agree very much. He said, "You are only fine on the surface now, what about inside? If you weren't overworked, you wouldn't have caught a cold and had a fever just because of the wind and rain.

In your current state, not only can you not perform surgery, but if you come into contact with patients, you'll have to worry about whether you might infect them with your disease, right?"

Zhang Heping stopped talking, knowing that what he said made sense.

"Okay, call your boss right away. It's still early and some arrangements can be made there. You stay here for two days and take good care of your health. Then I'll send you back, okay?" Shen Yanming discussed with him.

Zhang Heping nodded and left the kitchen to call his boss. The leave application process was relatively smooth, after all, the hospital was not that busy these two days.

Then he went back to the kitchen to help. The two worked together and finally finished breakfast before 8:30.

Zhang Heping ate wontons and vegetable buns contentedly, while Shen Yanming went back to the bedroom to call his wife to get up.

Bi Qiaoan knew that there were guests at home, so she didn't feel comfortable staying in bed. After calming down a little, she changed into her cotton pajamas and went to the bathroom to wash up.

After cleaning up, he sat back in the restaurant and drooled again at the sight of their food, which made Shen Yanming laugh.

"Okay, okay, I'll make you some kelp and pork ribs soup today to change the taste." After Shen Yanming finished speaking, he scooped out a bowl of soup from the pressure cooker and placed it in front of Bi Qiaoan.

Then he asked Zhang Heping: "Do you want to try it too?"

Zhang Heping shook his head, "No, Qiao An's food is too light, I have a strong taste and I can't get used to it."

Bi Qiaoan rolled his eyes and thought, "If you dislike it, just say so directly. Is there any need to say it in such a high-sounding way?"

However, this statement does sound much more pleasant.

After the meal, Shen Yanming cleaned up the dishes and took Zhang Heping to find Li Gangtie.

Although he used the excuse of being tired and weak when persuading Zhang Heping, he had actually determined that he was under great pressure and had a knot in his heart.

It's just that I didn't point it out loudly in order to protect his fragile little heart.
