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 663: Leave

Chapter 663: Leave

Bi Qiaoan woke up in the morning and found that the two babies were still asleep. She sighed and got up to wash up.

I checked the time, it was half past seven. It was still dark, so I let the goose out to help look after the two babies, and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

An An Nuan Nuan didn't see Shen Yanming before going to bed last night, so she cried again. No matter how she was coaxed, she just wanted to find her dad.

It was only after Bi Qiaoan found the photos and short videos she had taken with Shen Yanming that she was able to coax the two babies to sleep.

I don't know when her husband will be home, so I should prepare more food. Don't wait until the evening when the two babies start to make a fuss and I can't even cook. It's really frustrating to think about it.

Bi Qiaoan steamed two bowls of egg custard and cooked a bowl of dumpling soup. He also steamed two baskets of steamed buns and boiled a pot of millet porridge in the mobile villa in the space.

After all the food was ready, she slipped into the space, rode her electric donkey to the storage area, found a supermarket shopping cart, and put the egg custard, buns, and millet porridge into the basket.

Then I searched the storage area for lots of food, like small cakes, stews, and stir-fries, and put them in lunch boxes and also in the cart.

Bi Qiaoan pushed the cart to the transparent light curtain, left the basket of food in the storage area, and left the cart handle in the planting area.

She wanted to try whether this way she could ensure the freshness of the food while allowing her to use her consciousness to consume it.

Bi Qiaoan left the space here at the transparent light curtain, and then tried it with his consciousness.

It is possible to use it, but the cart must be pulled completely to the planting area.

Bi Qiaoan was very happy about this. This way, it would not be so troublesome to wait until noon.

But it doesn't matter if it doesn't work. At worst, she can just avoid the child and enter the space. Anyway, she has already set the entry point near the transparent light curtain.

Bi Qiaoan left the space, drank the dumpling soup, and looked at the time. It was already nine o'clock.

It was already dawn, but Shen Yanming had not sent back any news.

Seeing that the two babies were still sleeping, Bi Qiaoan hardened his heart and put them into the space.

However, this time they were sent to the storage area. It would be fine if the two babies continued to sleep, but if they woke up, we could just assume they were dreaming.

After getting dressed and putting on a veil, Bi Qiaoan went to the office building.

When Guo Tingshuo saw her, he was very surprised and asked, "Why are you here? Where is the child?"

"I'm sleeping at home. To make a long story short, I'm here to ask for leave from my husband Shen. He went out for something and I don't know when he will be back." Bi Qiaoan didn't say anything definite.

"Yes, I know. Secretary Jiang came over this morning."

Bi Qiaoan nodded and said with a smile: "So they have asked for help. I will go back now. I am worried about my child at home."

"Go back quickly, there's nothing wrong here!" Guo Tingshuo had guessed it when Secretary Jiang told him. So he distributed half of the work done by Shen Yanming to other colleagues.

After Bi Qiaoan got a positive answer, she hurried back home. After letting the two babies out, she found that their eyelids trembled, then opened, and then looked at their mother with a smile.

This made Bi Qiaoan feel uneasy, and she didn't know whether the two babies had just woken up, or had woken up a long time ago and were pretending to be asleep. However, she didn't point it out, she just picked them up and kissed them, then dressed the two babies and got up.

After cleaning up, Bi Qiaoan prepared milk powder for the two babies. The two little ones gulped down the milk without any of the noise they made last night.

Until noon, An An and Nuan Nuan were very quiet, playing with the goose on the ground without causing any trouble.

But when Bi Qiaoan was about to eat, the two children refused to listen. They pointed outside the door and shouted, "Dad!"

Bi Qiaoan could only put down the bowl and chopsticks, hold the two babies to her side, and said, "Dad is out working, I don't know when he will be back."

"try to find!"

"But mom doesn't know where to find dad! Dad is out for something, and he's not at the same place as yesterday. When he comes back, An An and Nuan Nuan will be able to see him, okay?"

The two little ones were in tears, feeling very aggrieved. Bi Qiaoan sighed inwardly, it was so inconvenient without the Internet.

"Okay, Mom will let you watch yesterday's video, okay?"

An An Nuan Nuan nodded, and Bi Qiao An took out her notebook and played the photos and videos of Chen Yanming, so that she had a chance to eat something.

The two babies pointed at the man in the video and shouted, "Daddy!"

Bi Qiaoan nodded in agreement, then looked at Bi Qiaoan: "Mom?"

“Yes!” Well, the me in the video was still a girl of twelve or thirteen years old, which really doesn’t look like me now. “That was when mom was a child.”

After watching the video, Bi Qiaoan took out the egg custard and fed it to the two babies. The two babies were not sleepy after eating and were full of energy.

Seeing this, Bi Qiaoan taught the two babies to speak. I don't know if it's because they ate the wisdom fruit and drank the spiritual spring water, but the two babies made rapid progress.

Knock knock knock, the door rang.

Bi Qiaoan put the two babies on the carpet, stood up and opened the door. She saw Wu Xia standing at the door with a guilty look on her face.

"Sister Xia, what's wrong with you? Please come in!" Bi Qiaoan said with a smile.

Wu Xia waved her hand, looked at the two treasures, and asked, "Qiao An, are you still going to deliver food today? I'll go with you!"

Bi Qiaoan noticed that Wu Xia's hands were empty, and said with a smile: "No need to deliver food today, my husband Shen has something to do, so he asked for leave."

Wu Xia breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, I'll be done tomorrow at noon and come down to call you."

"Sister, no need. I don't know when my old Shen will be back."

Wu Xia thought that the other person was unhappy, and hurriedly said: "Sister, I didn't mean it, I just didn't expect that you might also go over to deliver food. I was thinking about your two children, Xiao Shen might have taken them over by himself..."

Bi Qiaoan knew that she had misunderstood and hurriedly explained, "No, no, Yanming is really not here. Sister, if I need anything, I'll go upstairs and call you in advance. Is that ok?"

"Okay, even if you can't take care of the child, you can ask me to help!" Wu Xia nodded heavily, and the guilt in her heart was lessened a little.

"Would you please come in and sit for a while?"

"No, my Xiaohu is waiting for me to go back for dinner. Don't be shy to call me if you need anything." Wu Xia said and went upstairs.

Bi Qiaoan shrugged, closed the door, and didn't take it to heart.

It turned out that when Wu Xia went to deliver lunch at noon, her husband Luo took the bag and started looking for salted eggs. He was disappointed when he didn't find any, but he still asked unwillingly: "No eggs?"

"Eggs? Where can I get eggs? What's the situation now? The chickens don't lay eggs. Where can I find them for you?" Wu Xia looked puzzled.

Luo Yuesheng was also surprised, "Didn't you give me two yesterday?"

"No!"

The couple looked at each other, re-thought the matter, and then said, "It must have been Xiao Shen's wife who put it there."

"Did you help anyone today?" Luo Yuesheng asked.

"No, I didn't take it seriously."
